Rather Enthusiastic.
The Wilmington (Del.) Daily Repub
lican lately contained the following
item of popular interest: Dr. J. F.
Speck who is connected with the Wil
mington Every Evening, speaks rather
enthusiastically of St. Jacobs Oil. Dr.
Speck, states that he uses the Oil in
his family as a household remedy, a
sort of universal pan; tea for all aches
a'?-! pains, and has always found it to
act most happily. His attention was
called to it by the many testimonials
in its favor, and he one day used it
upon himself for sore throat. Two
applications were sufficient to effect a
eure. He also used it on his little girl
for sore throat with gratifying sue
cess. The same child had scarlet fev
er this winter which left the tendons
of one lg much contracted. The lit
tle prattler couldn't walk without as
sistance and suffered much inconven
ience and pain. Several applications
of St. Jacobs Oil restored hr limb to
its normal condition and she has not
experienced any trouble since. Dr.
Speck states that he has also seen the
Oil act charminglv in toothache. He
thinks St. Jacobs Oil is a sterling rem
edy, and does not hesitate to Tecom
mend it for rheumatism, etc.

" " ' 'for Ward Btojt. j
. ? Died. - '
Last Sunday noon, a hearse would
slowly up Main St. containing the
body of another well known and
dearly beloved citizen of Plattsmouth.
It as that f Mrs. II. A. Water
man who departed this life at Ladora,
Iowa, on the 4th of January, 1882,
aged 67 years and 11 months. ;'
; Last month ;som time Mr. Water
man and wife left us for a pleasant
holiday visit to another son's home,
little thinking that but one would re
turn, and ho as a mourner behind that
hearse last Sunday, yet such was the
case. . On Christmas day, Mrs. Water
man was taken ill", and lived only ten
days thereafter Sh was a native of
New York, and came west about six
teen years ago, having lived in Platts
seeuth twelve years.,
Her sudden " demise nnder such
painful circumstances, leaves her hus
band desolate indeed, and three chil
dren beside mourn her untimely
death, Jno. Waterman and Mrs. Lev
ings of this place and Mr. Z. Water
man of L.idora, Iowa. The sympathy
of many many friends goes out to
them.
The funeral service on Monday by
the Rev. Mr. Baird was very impress
ive, and bad as the roads and weather
were, . goodly number of our citizens,
besides the immediate friends of the
family, accompanied the remains to
their last resting place.
- - Sad Accident.
On Monday last a young man by th
name of Gorg Rockwell, living be
tween Louisville and Weeping Water,
attempted to jump from the passenger
train coming from the west as it pass
ed the elevator of Morrissey Bro's.
By some means he slipped and was
thrown under the cars, mutilating, his
right leg horribly."-He was brought
down to the passenger., depot at this
place and Dr. Livingston sent for.
Fortunately Dr. Mitchell, one of the
B. & M. assistant Surgeons was here
t see Dr. Livingston on business con
nected with the road.
The most unpracticed eye could see
at once that the limb must be amputa
ted. It was crnshed above the knee
th bone being laid bare the mutilated
flesh hanging in shreds from the knee
almost to the body.', The leg was also
eut completely in two below th knee.
The man was carried to one of the
rooms upstairs in the depot, and Dr'.
Livingston and Mitchell proceeded to
perform the operation.' Not since the
old day in "Hygei llospital," at For
tress' Monroe, has the Editor seen the
same Urrible uaultilation. Th naked
bone of the leg above the knee stoea
up, as on may. say, and with evry
throb of the" poor mangled body it
would throb in dumb powerless sym
pathy. Stretched on a rough desk in the
effic. a bed furnished by Henry Boeck.
beir.g ready after the operation, th
sharp polished tools of the surgeon
glitttred on the window sill as the
two' medical. meD prepared to make
the dread, yet necessary sacrifice that
severs a portion or tue great living
frame of a human being from that
which gives it life, motion, strength
and health. k
With coal and steady nerve the 'doc
tor --grasps the glittering knife. the
body is moved to let the westers sua
give stroager light, the bleeding quiv
ering flesh is stripped from the bone
to make the "flap" a cut. a slash, the
strong brifht unfeeling saw grates
back and forth, and the limb, so lately
a part of the living human man, drops
like a dead inert clod on the floor.
But not yet can the conservators of
human life cease their efforts; from
the bleeding red raw stump rush in
a hu ltd red streams (to uneducated
eyes) the life giving fluid slowly,
surely one by on, by the aid of pinc
ers, aie the arteries "taken up and
tied, the por wounded, carved , and
cut flesh is drawn carafullv over, the
quivering bone, cotton and bandages
belp to cover th ghastly sight and the
poor patient, who has been under th
influence of chloroform, with a paper
cap over his head that he may not see
is. all its nakedness the scenes we have
described, is informed in low tones
that be has a. hare chance to live."
It is a wonderful display of skill,
nerve and human endurance on both
sides.

Mrr Rockwell died about 5 a. m. Tues
day. His brother S F. Rockwell was
with him.
His body was taken to Louisville
Friday evening for interment yester

A Beneficent Action.
The worn look and miserable feel
ings of those closely confined in mills
or at desks er work-tables, are caused
by weak Stomach, Kidneys or Bowel?,
and show the necessity for some mild
tonic to build them up. No one need
suffer thus who will use Parker's Gin
fei Tonic; for without intoxicating it
has such a beneficent action on these
sluggish organs and so cleanses the
poisonous" matters from the system,
that rosy cheeks and good health and
spirits are soon brought back again.

might be prevented by promptly cor

that, otherwise often develop into set
