Schwab is going to have a $150,000 silver gilt dinner service. Even with that, however, he will probably find it impossible to take more than one mouthful at a time. "What shall we do when the lobster disappears?" anxiously inquires the Boston Globe. But there is no danger that the lobster will disappear so long as the chorus girl is on earth. Another cure for consumption has been discovered. The remedy consists of the juice of vegetables. Certainly the juice of corn has made many at least forget worse woes than consumption. Weber and Fields are talking of joining forces again and "Kid" McCoy is going into vaudeville at $700 a week. How can anybody continue to worry about the condition of the American stage? The Brewwinners' college, a school for those who must work for their living, has been opened in Boston. Whether it succeeds or not will depend largely upon the showing its football team is able to make. It seems odd to read that a young wife has needed for divorce because her husband wants to kiss her more devoting so much time to his demonstrations of affection that he neglects his work. That is not the usual complaint. A new law is soon to go into force in parts of Russia permitting the natives to discuss politics. If they dislike it, they can be as ineffectively as some thousands of our people do, the blessing of the law will be deeply disgusted. A man in New York has completed fifty years of service with the firm by which he is employed, and the occasion has been recognized by giving him a dinner and a loving cup. If any man in the country has made a longer record of continuous service with one firm, now is a good time for him to stand up and get applauded. A Chicago banker who has been sent to the penitentiary declares that he will come back and pay off every cent that he owes. Evidently he believes in spreading the gospel of hope. "I know a man that has never been kissed in his life," said he. "Well, said she, nymphathetically, "it's his own fault."-Detroit Free Press. The finest specimens of humanity in Europe are the gynies of Hungary. Both men and women are shapely in face and form, with large, clear eyes and rosy complexions, and they are seldom ill. At a recent dinner of the Geodetic Club, Professor Shaler, of Harvard, told the following story on himself: "I still remember a mental slip I made nearly thirty years ago when in Washington attending a large educational conference. I was alone in the hotel parlor waiting for two of my friends when a rather short, bearded man entered, and, seeing me, advanced to shake hands with a cordial, 'Glad to see you, Professor Shaler. At the moment I was uninterested in my job, I confess my lapse of memory. I explained that I was meeting so many people that I could not remember the name of each, though the face might be very familiar. He smiled and said he quite understood, and I was very impressed. He graved 'General Ulysses S. Grant,' and then I understood why his face was so very familiar." Best in the World. Cream, Ark, Oct. 9th.—(Special.)—After eightteen months suffer from Epilepsy, Backache and Kidney Complaint, Mr. W. H. Smith of this place is a well man again and those who have watched his return to health unheatedly give all the credit to him, who has never regarded his cure, Mr. Smith says: "I had been low for eleventh months with my back and Kidneys and also Epilepsy. I had taken everything I knew of and nothing seemed to do me any good till a friend of mine got to send for Dodd's Kidney Pills. I find that they are the greatest medicine for me for now I am able to work and am able to work and strong as before I took sick." Dodd's Kidney Pills cure the Kidneys. Cured Kidneys cleanse the blood of all impurities. Pure blood means good health. The tacit tramp may say nothing, but it doesn't follow that he saws wood. BIG PUBLISHER SUED Chicago, Oct. 16. The Peruna Drug Manufacturing Company, manufacturers of a widely known proprietary medicine, has brought suit in the Superior Court of the City of Chicago against the Curtis Publishing Company of Philadelphia, alleging that it has been damaged to the extent of $250,000 by a recent article in the Ladies Home Journal. The suit is based on a statement recently made in that journal that a testimonial as to the merit of the remedy manufactured by the plaintiff, alleged to have been given by Congressman George H. White of South Carolina, was fraudulent, denial from Mr. White that he ever gave such a testimonial also being printed. The Peruna company declares that Congressman White did give the testimonial in good faith, and that it has two original letters from Mr. White. It is alleged that White was led to repudiate the testimonial through a misunderstanding. This is the second large damage suit that has been filed against the Curtis Publishing company since it inaugurated its attacks on "Patent Medicines."

When King Edward was Prince of Wales, his habits and movements were marked by a simplicity which would doubtless characterize them still if he were not obliged, by reasons of state, to submit to another and more ceremonious existence in life, before the maysal's enjoyment, he was daydied to dog cart alone and unattended, when he encountered on a country road an old woman coming back from market, carrying a heavy basket. She seemed almost ready to drop, and the prince stopped and talked to her. He offered to give her a dog, and a good damn gladiator accepted. Chatting as they went, his highness asked the old woman what she had in her basket. "Eggs, butter, and vegetables, which I hope soon to find customers for," was the reply. "I like fresh eggs," said the prince, "and if you let me have the loot, give you the portrait of my mother," exclaimed the poor woman, in astonishment, "what good would that do?" "Me well, you never know," said the Prince of Wales, smiling; "just you let me have the eggs." And as they were nearing the old女士 cottage, his highness dressed in a white coat, half a dozen eggs, and handed the astonished market-woman a gold coin bearing the effigy of the late Queen Victoria. "GOLD GOLD." "Good," He Says. "But Comfort Better." "Food that fits is better than a golle mine," says a grateful man. "Before I commended to use Grape Nuts food no man on earth ever had a worse infliction from catarh of the stomach than I had for years. "I could eat nothing but the very lightest food and even that gave me great distress. "I went through the catalogue of prepared foods but found them all (except Grape Nuts) more or less indigestible, generating gas in the stomach (which in turn produced headache and various other pains and aches) and otherwise unavailable for me." "Grape-Nuts food I have found easily digested and assimilated, and it has renewed my health and vigor and made me a well man again. The catarrh of the stomach has disappeared entirely with all its attendant fills, thanks to Grape-Nuts, which now is my almost sole food. I want no other." Name given by Postum Co.

JUDGE GREEN DISMISSES CASE It Has Cost the State of Iowa Blo- OOO to Prosecute the Nebraska Man for Alleged Complicity—State Had No New Evidence. Red Oak, Oct. 12.—Judge Green yesterday morning dismissed the second indemnity against Tom Dennison on a charge of receiving diamonds stolen from W. L. Pollock, the New York diamond broker. The motion to dismiss was made by Attorney Greenlee, acting for County Attorney Fallon. The motion to dismiss was made on the ground that the state had no important evidence other than that offered at the first trial of Dennison, in which he was acquitted. Elmer Thomas representing the Civic Federation of Omaha, opposed the motion. He claimed that there was sufficient evidence to warrant a judgment and that Dennison had something to do with the dismissal of the charge against him. Judge Green, however, held that the new avidvails were not sufficient to cause Harrison county the heavy expense of a second trial. He did not believe a conviction could be secured with the evidence submitted, and dismissed the indictments. Dennison, who was here, was much pleased. He said: "I hope this satisfies the clique that has been trying to down me. It has been simply a plot on the part of Omaha politicians, anyway." FRANK CALLAHAN WAS The Molines, Oct. 12—The coroner's jury in the case of Frank Callahan, whose body was taken from the Des Molines river below Levy a few weeks ago, yesterday returned a verdict of murder, again pointing a hidden censure at the detective department as in the Griswold case, when a like verdict was returned after the body had been declared a suicide by the officers assigned to the case. The verdict here is not so pointed a censure, for the reason that the body was found outside the city limits, and does not actually come within the jurisdiction of the local officers, though the fact that the drowning or suicide or murder, whatever was that, the death, occurred in Des Molines, works the work on the case in this city. The verdict reached by the jury was based partly on the report of the Kinney, but more largely on the fact that Kinney was not found when taken from the river, Professor Kinney's report was to the effect that no water was found in the lungs, but that a woody fibre had added a number of places to the membrane. Went on a Long Journey. Grinnell, Oct. 11:—Tirin; of life, Dan Patton, a prominent farmer residing southwest of this city, took poison and died a few hours later. He sent a note to one of his friends saying that he wished that he would do the chores for him that evening as he was going on a long journey. Thinking something wrong a party was summoned. Patton was found dying in a chair at the front porch, where he seated himself after having taken the poison. DRUG STORE ROBBER MAKES A BIG HAUL Des Moines, Oct. 10—A lone masked highwayman entered the Hufford drug store at Nluth and School streets at 10:30 last night and at the point of a gun relieved the proprietor W. S. Hufford, of a roll of bills amounting to $150, a gold watch and chain, valued at $100, and a diamond wallet worth $200. He backed out of the store with the revolver pointed at the druggist's heart. He turned when he reached the street and ran south. His identity is not known to the police, save as the mysticist's drug store robber, the same man who entered the store on the Walnut street, Sunday morning, and has been necroting into other windows. The detective department was apprised of the fact and the matter was directly told to all of the patrolmen, with notice to watch for the stranger, described as being short, wearing a sandy mustache and wearing a cap. It is certain that the man is an expert hand at the business and may be the same thief who held up a number of drug stores during the summer. His methods are so hold and his actions so cool that it indicates he is an old hand at the business. Mason City City Man Killed Mason City City, Oct. 13—John Lee, thirty years a resident here, was killed by a Milwaukee freight at 4:50 yesterday at the Austin bridge, one mile north of the city. Lee was a wealthy pioneer hardware merchant. Of late years he was in ill health and was out for a walk near a curve in the track. His head was severed in the track. His head was left on the bridge. The body will be sent to New York for interment. Colafx, Oct. 10.—W. A.

IS FOUND GUILTY Sloux City, Oct. 11.—W. E. Brown, president of the defunct First National bank of Storm Lake, this afternoon was found guilty of fraudulent banking by making false entries in his books and false reports to the government. The trial has been in progress in the federal court for a week. There were two indictments and thirty-one counts, on thirty of which Brown was found guilty. The minimum sentence is five years. It would be possible for the court to sentence the prisoner to charge for each of the three sentences. Sentence will be pronounced Friday. Brown will probably take an appeal. The banker was in the court room when the jury returned its verdict at 5:25 o'clock yesterday afternoon, having been out for hours, but he was demonstration. It was said that there was no disagreement among the jurors and that the time was taken with the preparation of the verdict, the fact of there being so many counts making it a large task. THE GRAND CHILDREN GET RAND ESTATE Burlington, Oct. 11.—The will of the late Mrs. E. D. Rand, mother of Mrs. Geo B. Herron, made five years ago at Grinnell, was filed yesterday for record. Most of the estate goes to the grand children and will be held in trust until they successively attain their twenty-eighth year. Mrs. Carrie Rand-Herron and John J. Fleming of this city were named as trustees without bond. No statement of the total value of the estate is given. Mrs. Herron receives $200,000 and Mrs. Rand's two brothers are given 156 shares of bank stock. The remainder of the estate will be held in trust for Mrs. Rand's grand children. One-half of the net income from the property is to be used in educational work in which Mrs. Rand was interested in the latter years of her life. The remainder is 10,000 annually. The other half of the income will accumulate for the benefit of the grand children. W. V. WILLCOX GETS PENSION AGENCY Des Molines, Oct. 8—W. V.

THE BUMPER WHEAT CROP OF CANADA. 100,000,000 Bushills of Wheat from 4,000,000 Acres of Land. In order to secure the attention of the reader to any special article that is brought before the public, it is often the custom to lead the reader on by the introduction of an interesting story until by one bold jump, he is introduced to the subject that it is desired shall be brought to his notice. This is not fair to the reader, and it is not the intention to do that in this way "Western Canada" and its possibilities for settlement. For the past six or seven years the Government of the Dominion of Canada has talked of the resources of Western Canada to the readers of this and thousands of other papers throughout the United States. The quality of the soil was spoken of, the large area of fertile lands was discussed the possibilities of the district were talked of, and the story of the success of farmers from the United States was told. The story is not yet an old one. The two hundred thousand from the United States, who have made Western Canada their home, who have taken advantage of the 160 acres of land that the Government gives free to actual settlers are telling the story to-day to their friends and have made through these columns and by the Government Agents. They have produced from their lands, twenty, thirty, forty and more bushels of wheat to the acre, and netted profits ranging from three to ten and more dollars on every acre tilled. They have found the climate fully as good as they were told it would be, schools were convenient and easily organized. railways were not built and the roads were made through the social conditions were such as they chose to make them, and law and order were observed. Many of them bought land, because it was low-priced and good, and hundreds of cases could be cited where the purchase price of the land was paid out of the first crop. The writer knows of cases this year where the farmer, as a result of the yield on his farm, was put in a position where his holdings three extra acres for every acre cropped and pay cash for it. Is it any wonder that one grows enthusiastic when speaking about Western Canada. But what may be said of this year. We are now in a position to speak regarding it. The conditions throughout Manitoba and the new provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan have been remarkably favorable. Had conditions been so bad that the crop could have been ever cause for congratulation. We find through all previous records broken, and that from a four million acre crop of wheat there will be one hundred million bushels of a yield—or 25 bushels to the acre. Could anything better be desired? Covering the entire country the same splendid reports are being received by Mr. F. W. Thompson, Vice President of the Oglivie Milling Co. one of the most careful grain men in America: "Have just returned from covering several hundred miles of the crop district. I never saw anything like it in this country before. The average yield and quality far exceeds our own. It is an immense crop. The weather is extremely favorable." Up to three weeks ago it was Mr. Thompson's opinion that the crop would not reach general expectations. "F. W. Thompson sends another telegram from Winnipeg to night, saying that his estimate of the wheat crop is now one hundred millions bushels. Before he went west he thought it would 'fall considerably short of demand.'" The world this story is that there should be no hesitation in making a decision if you wish to better your condition; or, if you have a family of boys that you wish to become settled on farms, it is a safe proposition to call upon the nearest authorized Canadian Government Agent, and get particulars as to most suitable districts and railway rates. Lots of men who attend the races can't win even a little sympathy. AGAINST THE PUBLIC INTEREST. Overzealous Reformers Work for Law Against Prescriptive Medicines. "Schemes to diminish or destroy the sale of proprietary medicines are constantly being devised by interested parties. Every now and then some zealous reformer comes to the front with the demand for a law to require every package of proprietary medicine to be labeled with a printed statement of the 'formula', showing just how it is manufactured. The millions of people who use proprietary medicine are to be satisfied," the man with a mania for regulating the affairs of other people or who has some personal interest to serve is the one who agitates the proposition. To a person who has never taken time to consider it, such a proposition may seem reasonable enough; yet it is in fact nothing more nor less than a scheme to compel the manufacturers to put their trade throughout the entire country at the mercy of every person in the world to flood the market with limitations of their goods. "Under such conditions the incentive for the original manufacturer to advertise his goods would be practically destroyed, for the money spent on advertising would lure mainly to the benefit of the pirates and initiators. Without advertising, the public would receive little information in regard to the medicine, and all future patients would be treated not wholly destroyed. It is mainly by judicious advertising that the knowledge of proprietary medicines is brought to the public. Nothing is more certain than that millions of people have found relief at a comparatively small expense by the use of some remedy first called to their notice through newspaper advertising. Why, then, should the manufacturer of a meritorious proprietary remedy be compelled to establish a business as a condition of being allowed to carry it on? Yet that is exactly what these formula bills mean—Exchange. The Aldermen Are Kept in Council Chamber By Force. WHILE ORDINANCE IS PASSED Entering Into Contract With Omaha Gas Company — Mayer Moores Makes Inflammatory Speech and Vila Epifita Are Freely Used. Omaha, Neb., Oct. 12—The most extraordinary scene ever witnessed in the Omaha council chamber occurred yesterday when Mayor Moores stationed a cordon of policemen at the doors of the room and prevented three members of the city council from leaving the chamber, thus keeping intact a quorum, which the majority used to pass an ordinance entering into a contract with the Omaha Gas company for furnishing illuminating gas to the city. The council met in adjourned session, a quorum not being present at Tuesday night's regular meeting. After a roll call of the council was called President Zimmar and Councillor Krause to leave, thus breaking the quorum. They found every door blocked by stalwart policemen and were forced to remain in the council room. A member of the majority made a motion placing the ordinance on its passage, but President Zimmar refused to put the question. Councillor Krause responded by putting the majority, put the question, five members voting for it. The minority members declined to vote. Mayor Moores was present and immediately returned the contract with the bond approved. The mayor made an inflammatory speech, and several the opinions were passed between the council and minority members of the council. During the parley between Mayor Moores and Councilman O'Brien there occurred one of the most sensational scenes ever enacted in a legislative body in Nebraska. Threats of child abuse and the use of fistulence between the mayor and O'Brien was on the point of being consummated when Councilman Nicholson, another minority member, interfered. Twice O'Brien attempted to leave the council chamber and was forcibly pushed back by policeman. President Zimman also attempted to forcefully attack City Attorney 'Herdman declares it is illegal, while an attorney representing the gas company says the contract as approved is satisfactory. The ordinance provides for a ten year contract with the gas company for furnishing street lamps as a result of the damage it caused by the minority that cheaper lights may be secured. St. Petersburg, Oct. 12—Emperor Nicholas has decided to turn over to the national assembly the final settlement of the question of the abolition of restrictions to admission of Jewish students in another question relatives to the Jews. In reply to a petition of the faculties of St. Petersburg and Moscow universities advocating the unrestricted admission of Jewish students submitted to him by General Glasco, the university has notified the faculties of the above decision and at the same time pending the action of the national assembly, he has authorized the admission of Jews who are applying this year in excess of the legal percentage. He has also elaborated a bill providing for the removal of the restrictions on the admission of Jews to the universities. Omaha, Neb., Oct. 12—When the preliminary hearing of Pat Crowe, alleged kidnapper of Eddie Cudahy, was called before Police Judge Berka yesterday afternoon Crowe waived that formality and was bound over to the district court in $5,000 ball. Crowe said that he client be given a trial at the earliest possible time. It is believed that the prisoner will be able to secure bond. It s stated at the county attorney's office, however, that in case of securing ball on the shooting charge that he will be rearrested on the highway robbery charge for the County kidnapping. The original charge was yesterday amended to cover the statute of limitation, by an affidavit showing that Crowe has been a fugitive from justice since last spring. $50,000 FOR BEHRING'S SECRET Now Yorker Would Pay Behring to Reveal Consumption Cure.

Many Firemen In Chicago, Oct. 18.—Six firemen were injured, two particularly fatal, in a collision yesterday between a hose cart and an electric car at Larrabea and Black Hawk streets. The car was running at a speed of twenty miles an hour when it struck the rear of the hose cart knocking the vehicle off the road. The street car was slightly damaged. The cart cart was almost demolished. Mr. Porter Thought He Should Go Med But Dr. Williams' Pink Pills should have cured my neuralgia, said Mr. Porter. "They are certainly a marvelous medicine and I am always glad to recommend them. "For two years," he continued, "I had suffered almost unuended pains in my head. They would start over my eyes and shoot upward most frequently, but they often spread over my face, and as times ever get tougher of agony. Sometimes the pains were so intense that I actually feared they would drive me mad. "My eyes ached constantly and there was always a burning sensation over my forehead, but the other pains varied, sometimes full and闷熬, sometimes full and闷熬, I could not sleep. My temper was irritable and I got no pleasure out of life. "I tried remedy after remedy, but finding no help in any of them, I became a despairing man. Even when I began a Pink Pill I knew "That was in December of 1903. To my surprise, a change in my condition took place right away.
