H ARVEST FOR THE LAWYERS TURKISH TROOPS 'DEFEATED A despatâ€"ch from Ottawa. says: Ottawa’l second great typhoid epi- demic, which so far this year has aggregated 1,200 cases and 72 deaths, promises to prove almost as a Ian-vest for the lawyers as it been for the doctors. The City Solicitor has given an opinion to the City Council that the city is, on the ground of negligence in protect- épg johq purity of the water supply, Mbk fir dim; to the tyfifioid sufferers.

The Turkish comman- der and'ofiicere, with many sol- diers, have surrendered. For the past thirty hours the battle between the Montenegrin forces, under di- rect command of King Nicholas, and Turkish troops, strongly en- trenched in the hills, has been in progress. The fight/ began at 8 o’clock Wednesday morning, the limb shot being fired by Prince Peâ€" ter against the Turkish position on gaunt Planinitza. Within a few ‘ ours the Turks evacuated that disâ€" trict; Strongly fiortified positions were oooupied by the Turks, how- ever, en Detohitch Mountain, which commands the road to Scutari, and reinforcements were brought up which resulted in a. general enâ€" gagement, which extended along the line fior several miles. The twinges and tortures of rheu- matism are not due to cold, damp weather as so many persons sup- pose. Rheumatism comes from poisonous acid in the blood. This is a medical truth which every sufâ€" ferer should realize. There is only one way to cure rheumatismâ€"it must be treated through the blood. All the liniments and rubbing and soâ€"called electric treatment in the world will not cure rheumatism, and the sufferer who tries them is not only wasting money, but is al- lowing the trouble to become more deep-r0: ted in the system and hard- er to cure when the proper remedy is tried. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills always cure rheumatism because they so right to the root of the trouble in the blood. These Pills make the new, rich blood of health, and in this we. drive out the poise onous acid w ch causes rheuma- tism. Thousands of instances of cures mi ht be given, among which is the following one. Mrs. G. R. Dulmage, Cherry Valley, Ont., says: “I was attacked with rheu- matism which gradually ’grew Worse until I was confined to my bed. For about two weeks I had to be shifted and turned in bed as I was utterly unable to help myself. I was under the doctor’s care and so far recovered that I was able to get u and move about, but the troube still remained in my sys- tem. If I put my hands in cold water. or if I went out in the even- ing or in damp weather the trou- ble would return, and for four years I thus suffered from rheum- tism until I began to think it could not he driven from my system. Fin- ally I gave up all other medicine and began to use Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, and after using them for a. couple of months I was complete- ly cured and have not had a twinge of rheumatism since. I can recom- mend the Pills to anyone suffering from this trouble." These Pills are sold by all medi- cine dealers or by mail at 50 cents a. box or dix boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams’ Medicine 00., Brockvi‘llo, Ont.

Two hundred new rural mail de- livery routes have been established in Ontario and Quebec this summer. es by disease, the total collectible damages for loss from deaths, from wage loss, doctors' bill‘s, ebo., ag~ gregate about $420,000. Several of the sufferers have already insti- tuted action for recovery of damâ€" ages against the city, one widow claiming $15,000. ’ Now comes another almost hu- morbus sequel to the.‘ sad story of Ottawa's waterworks mismanage- ment.

Prince Danilo directed operations at the fmnt. The Montenegrins re- sumed the bombardment of Detâ€" chitch wt dawn, and a heavy can- nonading was kept up until 11 d’clock in the morning, when the Turkish batteries on the mountain were silenced. Man Killed Instantly by Falling Timbers of New Rink. A despabch from Russell, Ont“, says: During the.‘ progress of 9. “raising bee” in the village here on Saturday, when the curved wooden sets of a. rink, which is be- ing built by citizens, were being put in position, a violent Windstorm came up and carried the heavy framework with a, crash to the ground. Some two dozen men who were engaged in the work were were caught in the falling timbers, John W. Low, aged fifty-five, one of them, being killed instantly. Many others had miraculous es- capes from serious injury. John Foster was run over by a, passing horse which had become frightened by the crash as he dashed out from the ruins of the building. Wm. Anson Lawrence, Registrar and County Court; Clerk of Halton, dig! at Milton, aged sixty-nine. In the meantime a great battle was proceeding near the Turkish town of Tu-shi, about fifteen miles to the south of Podgoritza. At 4 o’clock in the afternoon the Turkâ€" ish commander on Detchitoh, with his ofli-cers and a majority of his troops, surrendered. The Monte- negrinis captured four guns. The Montenegrin standard was hoisted over the captured position. 'There were heavy losses on both sides, but the Montenegrin camp gave itself over to r-ejoicings on the first vic- tory in the war. Prolonged Man’s Life Ten Hours Artificially. A despatch from Montreal says: A rather remarkable feat has just been performed at the Royal Vic- toria Hospital. For ten and a half hours, by means of insufflation, that is, forcing oxygen into the lungs, the surgeons in the hospital kept a patient alive who had ceased en- tirely to breathe by any natural means. At 11 o’clock on Thursday the patient absolutely stopped breathing. Death would inevitab- ly have ensued at once' had it not been for the extraordinary skill of the surgeons, who kept the man alive with his heart beating norm- ally until he died at 9 o’clock in the evening. A division of Montenegrins, com~ manded by General Vukotuch, crossed the frontier early Thursday morning, near B-eljana. ‘ Turkish'flag, the crescent and th star, that is carried at the head of th Ottoman troops.
