GEORGE G. THOMAS, M. D., Wilmigton, N. C, ex-President North Carolina Medical Society, Member American Medical Association and American L
Public Health Association, Chief Surgeon Atlantic Coast Line, etc., says: .
"I am thoroughly satisfied with the excellent results that followed the prescribing Linccln Lithia Water in my practice when quite
a quantity of it had been given a patienVjof mine who was suffering with Dyspepsia that had about exhausted my efforts to cure. I suggested that he
ist LincolnLithia Water very freely and to the exclusion of ail other" water. The treatment was a most successful one and the relief that
ensued has been permanent. r ' " . - ; . -; v
"A littla later I prescribed this water for the Nausea of Pregnancy ion a patient -with Chronic Bright's Disease of the Kidneys. It materially
mitigated the suffering, and I believe kept her condition in a favorable state for the whole term. It has always increased the diuretic effect of alka?
lies and been of benefit to persons suffering with a Lithic Acid Diathesis. In my own person, I am sure it has warded off two attacks of Nephritic
Colic, and relieved me of an Excess of Uric Acid. There is never a day now it is not used in my house. A patient, who has been a dyspeptic always, is
signally benefited by , Lincoln Lithia Wator It most assuredly then does correct and control the disposition to an excess of lithic acid;
It does relieve atonic, gastric indigestion, and it does, as a result of one or both of these improvements, build up the general system, improve .the
appetite and digestion. It is as well a most delightful drinking water, no amount of it that one can take ever giving the consumer the uncomfortable
sense of fullness that follows very large draughts of water generally. The high percentage of lithia and the comparatively low percentage of. other
mineral ingredients, especially lime and soda, make the indications for its use by gouty and rheumatic patients the more pronounced."
A. W. KNOX, M. D., Raleigh, N. C,, Member N. C. Medical Societv: "1 have used the Lincoln LithiaWater quite extensively In
my practice during the past five or six years. In the Uric Acid Diathesis; in controlling the tendency to Nephritic; Colic, in Dyspepsia, in Al
buminuria, and I have come to regard it with gpeat confidence. Indeed, so highly do I appreciate its efficiency in the disturbances of the Renal
Functions, that I regularly prescribe its systematic use to the exclusion of ordinary drinking water as a Preventive for Renal Complications dur
ing the last three or four months of pregnancy in the cases of allvmy patients who can afford it."

SHAW IN VIRGINIA
Secretary - of the Treasury Speaks
in the Campaign
Richmond, Va., Oct. 2. Hon. Leslie
M. Shaw, secretary of the treasury,
opened the Republican campaign in
this state tonight with an address at
the Academy of Music before a large
audience, including many Democrats.
There was a sprinkling of ladles and
all of the boxes had been reserved
for parties who had signified their in
tention of listener to the distinguished
speaker. There were very few reserva
tions of seats on the lloor of the
academy. ' Judge Lu L. Lewis of this
city, Republican nominee for gover
nor, presided and Introduced the speak
ers, Secretary Shaw being preceded by
Hon. Jacob Yost of Staunton, former
congressman from the tenth district.
Secretary Shaw arrived in this city
this afternoon. He was 'met at the
station by a number of prominent Re
publicans and was escorted to the Jef
ferson Hotel. After a short rest he
wras taken for a drive around the city.
After the drive he returned to the Jef
ferson for dinner. He was escorted to
the academy by a committee of well
known Republicans.
In introducing the speakers, Judge
Lewis said that he had no set speech
to make at this time. He intimated
that he would have many things to
say at a later day in the campaign.
He spoke in complimentary terms of
both the distinguished speakers whom
it was his pleasure to introduce. Judge
Lewis was heartily applauded.
Mr. Yost spoke for less than half an
hour. He said the audience as well
as himself came to hear the address of
3ecretary Shawr and that he did not
propose to detract from the utterance
of that gentleman by claiming a larger
share of time for himself than neces
sary. Mr. Yost spoke for the most
part in a humorous vein.
Secretary Shaw was greeted with
hearty cheers when he arose to speak.
Ministers Will Meet the King ,

ister of the interior, will visit the king
j tomorrow. Kristoffy is the originator

firming the report that Baron Ferjer
vary's cabinet will be reinstated, with
a suffrage program which' now seems
to"b.e the only means of combatting the
coalition party. M. ?Lengyel, the lead
er of the federal branch of coalitionists,

this city are on the trail of a certain
man m connection with the disposal of
the young woman's body, a portion of
which was found in a suit case at Win
thiop' a week ago last Friday, was
learned for a certainty late tonight.
The man they, want to find has been
missing from the city for. ten dayx
He has been connected in some capaci
ty with the office of a certain woman
practitioner who has been before the

that-he is the person answering the
description of the man who purchased
the suit case of the pawnbroker in the
south end of the city. In addition to
these statements Timothy Hoard, the
cab driver, who says he drove two men
with a heavy suit case from Tremont
street to the Chelsea ferry the night
before the torso was found, has identi
fied a photograph of the man as the
younger of his two fares. He appeai-3
to have left the city very soon after
the autopsy upon the torso had re
vealed that the malpractice victim had
been dead but twenty-four hours when
her-dismembered trunk was picked up,
and the rumor is that he went south.
The photograph came into the mys
tery through a lawyer who is at the
head of a collection agency. He was
employed by a woman, the former wife
of the missing man, to drum up on the
matter of unpaid alimony, and to as
sist the collection agency in running
down the delinquent ex-husband she
furnished a photograph of him. 1

In the Mount Carmel Asylum in Piety
street calls attention to the fact that
the Catholic church has suffered much
worse than the others from the present
epidemic, losing Archbishop ChappetU,
and Father Greene of the Jesuits, and
having the fever in very bad form . in
three convents supposed to be more
or less cut off from the world. Last
night's report shows, fever trouble m
three convents. , The fever m the
Mount Carmel asylum in Piety street
has been traced to sisters from the
convent in St. ciauae iu,T
lodged in the asylum some two weeks
ago and, it is thought, brought the
infection with them from the convent
in which there had been three deaths
from yellow fever. Now comes the
death from that disease of Sister Mary
Edith, a native of Germany, There was
an unwillingness at first to fumigate
churches and chapels, which may ac
count for the spread of the disease in
religions circles. Bishop Rouxel has
pronounced strongly against this.
GREENSBORO FEDERAL COURT
Office Holder Cases to Be Tried Later
in the Week
Greensboro, N. C, Oct. 2. Special.
The October term of the' United States
court opened this morning and promises
to be unusually interesting, if not sen
sational. There is a large crowd. The
cases against the federal office-holders
constitute the chief topic of interest
and have attracted quite a number
who areL here in the capacity of wit
nesses and attorneys. It is understood
that these cases will be called for trial
later in the week. District Attorney
Holton stated today that the case
against N. Glenn Williams would be
called for trial Wednesday. This rivals
in interest and importance the cases
against the revenue officers.
Only two cases of interest were before
the court today, that of ;D. L. Arey of
Salisbury, who was convicted at the
June Charlotte term and appeared hev3
today and voluntarily surrendered him
self. He left tonight, in custody of
a. deputy marshal for Salisbury, where
he will enter upon his three months'
imprisonment in the county jail of
Rowan. Arey also brought with him
and is ready to pay twenty-two thou
sand dollars, the amount of the judg
ment against him. He will also pay
tomorrow a fine of two hundred dol
lars and costs amounting to something
over sixteen hundred dollars; aggre
gating twenty-four thousand dollars,
which makes the sum the government
gets from this one defendant. I
Following the disposition of this case
was the trial of W. B. Lucas from
Montgomery county, charged with op
erating unlawfully a brandy distil
lery. After very earnest arguments
by his attorney, G. S. Bradshaw, and
the "district attorney, and the charge of
the judge, the defendant concluded that
he did not care to follow Mr. Arey.
and failed to answer when called to
hear the response of guilty from the
jury. He is pursued by an Instanter
capias, but the chances are that he
will not engage the further attention
of the court at this term.
