During the war I was in-
jurcdinthe stomach by a piece
of a shell , and have suffered
from it ever since. About four
years ago it brought on paraly
sis , which kept me in bed six
months , and the best doctor *
In the city said I could not
live. I suffered fearfully from
Indigestion , and for over two
j cars could not cat solid food
and for a large portion of the
time wasunable to retain even
liquid nourishment. I tried
Urown's Iron Bittcrsand now
after taking two bottles I am
able to get up and go around
and am rapidly improving.

"I wan'seated ono day , " said my old
army friend , "In my little 7i'J brick
office at Ban Diego In a llstlets mood ,
with nothing In particular to do , and

The old town was the drowsiest , qnl-

It was BO far away from the wild tur

forau hour or two , loaded and crammed
with people for tha mines , then after
tbo blue film of amoko from her chim

horizon line , the Inhabitants of San
Diego would return to their listless oo
onpationa and a dead qnlot followed.
My little office was situated on the
plaza and waa the only edifice of the
kind In the town , the others were ol
adobe. Immediately In front was c

OOALLAIA , Nob. , Juno 7. Oa the
15th of May laot tbla county waa
startled by the rumor of a critno un
paralleled in Its criminal annals.
Wm. H. Tackor , a resident of
North Piatto and engaged In the e'a-
loon business there and at Ogallala ,
was charged by Mine Flora lUyner
with a rape upon her person. The
youthfulnoea of the child , who Is
*
onlyfonrtoon years of age , joined to
the fact that the perpetrator of the
outrage Is a notorious sporting man ,
gambler , brothel proprietor , married
and having an Infant daughter , aggra
vates the circumstances of this osso.
At the preliminary examination
Tucker made no defense , and wai
bound ever to the district court In the
onm of $5OCO , which sum was nnbao-
qnently lowered by the justice presid
ing to 82,500.
Pablio sympathy being aroused In
the case , a subscription list , intended
to defray the expense of employing
legal counsel for the child , was started
by the citizens of Ogallala , and In one
day twenty signers expressed their
feelings substantially to the tune of
$100 , and more funds are being rap
idly ( subscribed.
No particulars of the preliminary
trial hare yet botn published. The
journalo of North Piatto , at which
plaoo tha crlmo was committed , in
serted brief items , chhfl/ noted foi
warnings to the public not to hastily
form either their opinions or judg
ment until the caio should como to
an iasuo. Pab.io opinion will
neither sour nor spoil by belup
saved until then. Nor TV II
the methods employed to sllenco the
pen In this Instance procure sllonco.
The testimony of tbo child on tht
day of trial iras that Tucker intimi
dated her with a shotgun while riditif
in a buggy near North Phtte , thi
child at the time being on a visit to thi
wife of Tucker.
Threatening her thus ho accomplished
od his execrable designs , and the fac
is well known that he has staca ao
knowledged an attempt to commit thi
act.

It la needless to add that the famil ;
of the child ri fated the oiler with th
contempt and scorn it so justly merit
