Among the passengers who boarded
the Sarah Dixon yesterday morning at
Portland was a man who evidently had
become tired of this life, and soon made
up his mind to end his struggles by
drowning himself in the seething waters
of the Columbia river.
He was a middle-aged man, about 5
feet, 8 inches in height, dark grey eyes',
dark hair, sprinkled with grey; he wore
about u week's growth of whiskers, and
his muBtache wob inclined to be dark.
He appeared to be a laboring man, but
was very slim and sickly looking, and
certainly not able to work very hard.
Those who noticed him particularly
say that he acted 6trangely, and moved
about the boat as if eomewhat dazed.
About midway between Warrendale
und McGowan's cannery he was noticed
to go att, descend the ladder, and before
his intention was surmised by the few
who saw him, jumped overboard.
The water seemed to revive him, and
he appeared to start for shore, as if re
gretting the rash act and still clinging
to life; but his efforts were vain.
As soon as the cry of "Man over
board!" was heard, boats were lowered
and every effort made to rescue him ;
but Le sank before aid could reach him,
and liia body was carried away by the
waves.
His hat was left on the step, and in it
was found a ticket to The Dalles ; but
no clew to his name nor anything re
garding tho man could be found.

INTERESTING EXPERIENCE
or an Iowa lMy Who Wan Cared of
Dyprla After BoffVrlng for
Twenty-flve Yearn.
Mrs. Sarah A. Skte'.e, an estimable
lady residing at Lynnville, Jasper Co.,
Iowa, was for twenty-five years a sufferer
from dyspepsia, and her comp'ete res
toration to health is so remarkable that
we present tho facts in the case for the
benefit of our readers, many of whom
have doubtless suffered in the samu
manner, and will, therefore, be inter
ested in learning how all stomach trou
bles may be avoided and cured. Mrs.
Skeelssays: I used only one package
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and I re
ceived such a great and unexpected ben
efit that I wish to express my sincere
gratitude. In fact, it has been six
months Bince I took the medicine and I
have not had one particle of distress or
difficulty since. And all this in tho face
of the fact that the best doctors I con
sulted told me my case was incurable as
I had suffered for twenty-five years. I
want half a dozen packages to distribute
among my friends here, who are very
anxious to try this remedy.
Truly yours,
Mns. Saiiah A. Skeels.
The reason why Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are so successful in curing'indi
gestion and stomach trouble and the
reason why it never disappoints those
who need it and use it is because noth
ing is cjaiiued for it except what it will
actually perform. It is not a cure-all
and no such claims are made for it. It
is prepared for tho Bole purpose of curing
Dyspepsia and the various forms of in
digestion. There is scarcely a patent medicine
made but what is claimed to cure dys
pepsia as well as a hundred other trou
bles. When, as a matter of fact, a rem
edy to cure dyspepsia must bo prepared
especially for that and nothing else;
and among all the remedies, patent nos
trums, bitters, etc.. so extensively ad
vertised you will find that Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets is the only one adver
tised as u cure for dyspepsia and nothing
else. Tiio remedy is prepared by the
Stuart Co.. of Marshall, Mich., and for
sale by all druggists at 50 cents per
package, and if you suffer from any form
of stomach derangement or indigestion,
a trial will not disappoint you.
