Within the past few years however a remedy called the Pyramid Pile cure, has been repeatedly tested in hundreds of cases and with highly satisfactory results. The first effect of this remedy is to instantly remove the pain and irritation and from that time on the cure rapidly progresses and before the patient is hardly aware of it he is entirely cured. The Pyramid Pile Cure seems to act directly upon the nerves and blood vessels of the parts affected as it comes into direct contact with them and sets up a healthy action which in a perfectly natural way reduces the swelling and inflammation The Pyramid Pile cure performs the cure' without pain or inconvenience to the sufferer and is justly considered one of the most meritorious discoveries of modern medicine.

The supreme court of the United States, today granted the motion of the government to advance the Neely cases and assigned them for hearing November 12. The cases came up from the federal court New York on the decision of Judge Wallace denying a writ of habeas corpus. The government is very anxious for a decision which will settle the constitutional questions, involved. The court assigned for the same day the two cases which involve the great question as to whether the constitution extends over the new possessions of the United States-.

Reavis once splurged in San Francisco and New York. It is now learned that the notorious imposter, who so suddenly-dropped out of sight, is looking after a small band of horses and getting fcr the work a few paltry dollars. It is hoped that he has given lip his life of fraud and mis- i representation. The story of this man's efforts, ex- tending over a period of eighteen years, to establish his- fraudulent claim to this rich tract, reads like a romance.

It ended in his being -sentenced to serve six years in the United States peniten- tiary at Santa Fe in January, 1S95. From this confinement he emerged broken in health and prints, and with several other indictments hanging over his wretched head. It is not likely, however, that any of these indictments will be pressed against him. i Reavis was born in a little Missouri town in the year 1S47.
