D, announcing the death of Mr. Thomas McDaniel, who until about one year ago had lived in our city more than a quarter of a century. He moved out to South Dakota, with Mr. and Mrs Wm. Smith, last summer and remained there until his death. While he has been a sufferer for many years from the brights disease, yet he was not bedfast but a short time. Mr. and Mrs. Smith accompanied the remains here, which reached here Tuesday and was buried Wednesday afternoon. Mr. Thomas McDaniels was born in New Orleans, La., he came to Keokuk, where he worked in a white barbershop, later he worked on a steamboat where he began to mass his great wealth. He married early in life and by the efficient efforts of his able wife who stood as the key to the door of his success she died about 5 years, ago a very devoted high minded christian character. Mr. McDaniel owned property at one time in our city estimated to be worth about $40,000. Unfortunately for him there are no children and no near relatives so far as we are able to learn. H was chef at the Savery hote. for many years. He was a man of but few words yet positive quiet and had many friends, a fine specimen of manhood, perhaps the weaithies Negro in this country and one of the richest in Iowa, yet there has been but little said about it, this character is an object lesson as to what honest toil and frugality can accomplish.

A Faithful Friend "I have used Chamberlain's Collie Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy since it was first introduced to the public in 1872, and have never found one instance where a cure was not speedily effected by its use. I have been a commercial travler for eighteen years, and never start out on a trip without this, my faithful friend," says H. S. Nichols of Oakland, Ind Ter. When a man has used a remedy for thirty-five years he knows its value and is competent to speak of it. Eor sale by all druggists.

Dawes' Good Advice to Young Men in Business. This is a hard world in business. It always has been and always will be. There are many good and generous men in it. There are many who will lend 2 helping hand to you in your adversity, but in the time of need you will not find them among the men who tried to get you to embark in speculation with your little surplus, and to sell you something which would help you to "easy money." Be self-reliant. Make your own investigation into investments. When you cannot, put your money in a good savings bank. Distrust the financial demagogues as you distrust the political demagogue. Keep your hand on your pocketbook as you travel life—first, to give always in proportion to your means to those who are poorer; second, to hold from those who would take through force or fraud what you need for yourself and yours. You will then, write Mr. Dawes in the Saturday Evening Post, have your hand where most of the other fellows have only their eyes. In this alone you will have the advantage of them. ```markdown ``` One of the great daily newspapers has been making a feature of late of the personal history of citizens who, by means of their prominence, are supposed to be known to its readers. In a series of articles entitled, "Real Love Stories," it has told how they won their wives and pictured the life of the family. More than 50 of the stories have been published. Since they are romantic in the best sense, and since they gratify that harmless curiosity which is inspired by admiration and respect, there is no reason to regret their popularity. One might go a little further, indeed, and say that the fact bears opportunely and conclusively on a comment by an English traveler which was recently printed in another newspaper. "There's no home life in this country, you know, among people of my class," he is reported to have said. "Your men are business men and marry for commercial reasons; many of your women do the same; and if the result is not alienation, it is liable to be unpleasantness." The reader will wonder what kind of people the unlucky tourist has met. Men and women who know the United States, because they live in it, soldom find any who answer his description. The couples who figure in the "stories" married for love and reared happy homes upon an uncommercial basis, declares the Youth's Companion, and persons who are not, as they are, in the public eye, are doing the same thing everywhere and every day. Family quarrels and domestic scandals get into the newspapers and are talked about simply because they are exceptional events. Behind most marriages in this country there is a real love story, and it is always "to be continued." Can anything be more convincing as to the extent to which American ideas are enlightening the earth than the spreading popularity of that distinctively American game, baseball? The New York Times remarks: "J. Vannata played third bag for the Kams and showed up well with the stick. H. Chillingworth handled the initial sack for the Jewels." So runs the report of a baseball game played in Hawaii between the Kameanehans and the Diamond Heads. The lingo follows the flag." Even Japanese, Filippo, Hindoo and other students from abroad take to the sport as soon as they reach our shores, and discuss the fine points in choice "bassallehce." The national game is doing glorious work as an international unifier. The bread eaters and the corn eaters and the meat eaters and all dealers in farm products and those who sell merchandise are again invited to cheer up about Kansas. As the floods side and the waters recede it is learned that nothing has been "drowned out" in Kansas but the cut worms and the chinch bugs and the Hessian fly and the weevil and the like. The wheat and the corn and the millet and the alfaffa, says the Kansas City Star, are standing up thick and "sassy" in the fields, and are giving the verdant and golden "hat" hat" to the croakers who issued, a week or so ago, advance notices of a crop failure in Kansas. Arrangements are rapidly making to take advantage of the new emergency currency law. The bureau of printing and engraving is busy making the plates for the new currency, and the national banks in the large cities are forming associations to take charge of the new issues in their territory. Plans will be perfected and the currency ready for issue by the time it will be needed for moving the crops in the autumn. As the prospect for unusually large crops is good, the demand for money is likely to be very great. Fortunately, this year there is no danger of a money famine simultaneously with agricultural plenty. A man in Chicago died of imaginary poisoning, the result of auto suggestion, and it is said by doctors that many people do die from this cause. If auto suggestion is so powerful as to kill a man who has really nothing the matter with him, why can't it act otherwise and allow people to persuade themselves when the atmosphere is sizzling loud enough to compete with a trolley gong that are enjoying cool and pleasant breezes? It is a poor—a very poor—rule which will not work both ways. A 20-minute version of "Hamlet" is being advertised in New York. It would be interesting to hear what William Shakespeare would say if he knew his work was being "boiled down" to suit the demands of the 20-minute vaudeville sketch circuit. A French traveler says that where Roosevelt is going to hunt in Africa the natives eat white men. A certain party is liable to brand him as a nature faker. A persistent rumor that President and Mrs. Roosevelt will visit England next year is current in American circles abroad. It is said that he will stay six months in London with his family and will study the organization of the navy and the management of the dockyards. A one-armed man takes up the collection in a church at Tojice, Kau, which seems at least as good a scheme as that of the Chicago pastor who suggests cash registers. Iowa State News Events of Recent Occurrence Throughout the Commonwealth. Burlington Federation Lenient With Louis Houses. Burlington—A somewhat peculiar thing has happened in the campaign which the Burlington Civic Federation is waging for the full enforcement of the mulet law here. Soon after the decision of the state supreme court was made against what was known as partial decrees in saloon cases and holding that a judge could not enforce part of the mulet law, but must take cognizance of all the provisions in dealing with any phase of it, the Burlington Civic Federation issued notice to all saloons that they must get under the mulet law entirely by August 20 next. All saloon owners and proprietors at once began active preparations for the inevitable. Now the announcement is made that the civic federation has notified certain saloon keepers that they will be given an extension of time until October 1 before action is taken against them. This is the result of certain representations in which the saloon keepers have made to the officers of the civic federation; viz.: that each has paid the required mulet tax on July 1, and that if they are closed up on August 20 they will lose practically half their tax. They point out that there are certain provisions of the law which it will be impossible for them to meet by August 20—for instance, securing the sent of the adjoining property owners and getting out of the 300 foot limit from any church. Realizing that under these circumstances the enforcing of the mulet tax Aug. 20 would be a serious hardship to the saloon men, the federation has notified them that in those particular complaints will not be made against them until Oct. 1. Another interesting feature of the mulet law campaign is the fact that the supreme court having declared the partial decree of the district court illegal and void, some of the saloons are taking advantage of it to open their places on Sunday. At least the report is made that a number of Burlington saloons did a good business last Sunday. DUBUOUE SALOONS QUIT. Twenty-five Out of Business as Res- sult of Anitation. Dubuque.—When the mutel agitation now on in Dubuque reaches its fruition twenty-five liquor dispensaries will go out of business. That is, a careful estimate of the situation based on statements from proprietors at this time indicates that this number will fall to pay their quarterly assets when the month of October arrives. There are now in operation in the county 175 saloons. A half dozen went out of business when the last quarterly tax was due owing to the limitations which the Bonson decree placed upon the hours of operation and the general regulations placed upon an industry that never before had been in any manner or way controlled, save that since 1889 the Bonson decree had been collected regularly. Prior to that time the only tax that was paid was one of $100 annually levied by the city. Attorney A. P. Gibbs has demonstrated that he means business in his prosecution of the saloons of the county. His original notices were serv'd a month ago. On the 1st the first installment of the petitions demanding injunctions was placed on file. The balance will be in the vault of the county clerk inside of office. There are wild and unreasonable saloon men here—men who have known but little law in the past—but it is worthy of comment that not one today but realizes the mulet law is scheduled. No definite action has been taken by the saloon men with regard to securing attorneys, but it is given out when the time comes legal talent will be on hand and the chief purpose of such action is the proceeding, but to find as easy and as graceful a way out of the difficulty as possible. A notable incident in connection with the present affair is the announcement of Elchorn & Bechtel the oldest saloon keepers in Dubuque—men who for forty-two years have been in the business and who in that time never have had an arrest of any and without ceremony they have difficulty in the place, to retire on the first of October. They are operating a saloon in connection with a grocery store. The building is with the 300-foot limit of a school house cided to take the liquor business. Clinton Wires Under Ground. Clinton—Crews of men are engaged in putting underground Clinton's overseas wires. Both the Iowa and the Bell telephone companies will build commended new exchange buildings during the coming year, and these companies are putting all of their wires in the business and main residence districts of the city, into underground conduits. The fire alarm system also, to the extent the next few months, the city council having called for bids for the completion of this work. Clinton Bridge Half Done Clinton.—The mammoth $2,000,000 Northwestern bridge across the Mississippi from this city is complete from the Illinois side to Little RI. Island in the center of the river. Traina yesterday ran over that portion of the structure for the first time, using the old bridge for the worst half of the trip. The draw on second section will be completed with DICKINSON AGAIN IN TROUBLE Wife of Notorius Des Molines Man Wants Divorce Des Molines.—Though loyal and constant when her husband stood before the world an accused murderer, Mrs. Herbert B. Dickinson, miserable and broken hearted, has fled in district court a petition for her attorney, W. T. Maxey, who furnished her with funds to help pay her railroad fare, the mother and three little browned children, have gone to the home of her father, M. Hermes, at Ottawa. Ill. And Dickinson's babies cried and moaned because mamma was unable to find papa so that they might kiss him goodbye. The petition as filed In court, makes sensational charges against the former insurance man who jumped into the limelight and was taken into custody charged with being responsible for the death of pretty Irene Blydenburgh, the Eldora telephone girl. The wife charges that Dickinson, since their marriage at La Selle, Ill., December 27, 1898, has become addicted to the use of spirituous liquor and that while under such influence he is quarrelsome and cruel. She is often taken to a home often for a day and two nights, never once telling her where he is. At other times, she charges, Dickinson lruns drunk in East Court avenue resorts for hours at a time. That Dickinson has threatened to kill her is another charge. Furthermore she avers that he uses vile and indecent language in the presence of his wife, and says, he has been guilty of a statutory crime with women whose names are to the plaintiff unknown. HELD FOR COUNTERFEITING. Albia Man Is Found with Bogus Coin in His Pockets. Ottumwa.-William Fay of Albia was held by United State Commissioner Hunter to the federal grand jury under $2,000 bonds on the charge of passing counterfeit money. Fay came to Ottumwa a few days ago and two counterfeit 5-cent pieces are said to have been taken from his pocket by one Jennie Stubbs, whom he was visiting. The woman informed the police and Fay was arrested. Chief of Police allagher said that he was with which Fay is said to have made the spurious coins. Fay claims that he intended using the money and dies with other contraptions he had in presenting a moving picture depicting the life of a counterfeiter from the moment of making coins until he is finally arrested and landed in prison by the federal authorities. Fay's story, however, had no effect on Commissioner Hunter, and he was accordingly bound over to await the action of the federal grand jury. If nothing else, he would give his show and his experiments in Ottumwa so far can easily be put in a shape for one or two acts. Incident to the Fay case, Commissioner Hunter let it be understood that the Otumwa jail and the Wapelo county jail were not safe places in which to keep Uncle Sam's prisoners. He accordingly ordered Fay taken to the Davenport jail to await trial. The jail outbreaks from both the city and county jails have made the government officials wary. 134 BIGAMISTS DES MOINES? Failure to Pay Fees Said to Invail date Divorces. Des Molines.—One hundred and thirty-four men and women who have their residence in Des Molines may be bigamists. This number of persons went through the formality of procuring divorces here, but because of negligence or lack of payment of attorneys' fees and court costs their divorce have never been filed. Term after term the cases remained on the calendar. The judges announced they would demand the filing of decrees in all cases settled. No decrees were glad, and the cases involving these people were dismissed. Under the law the signing of the decree by the judge does not complete the record. It must be filed and recorded in the journal with the costs paid. The judge is in his office for lawyers to hold up the decrees until they have received their fees. Clients in many cases believe they are divorced and think they are only beating the attorney out of his fees. Others may pay the lawyers and the lack of filing be neglected on the part of the attorneys. Since their hearing in equity court and laboring under the delusion that they are separated, many of the persons have remarried. HORSE'S TAIL IN THRASHER: Nevada.—A most peculiar accident happened at the H. C. Lowery farm southeast of town. While engaged in thrashing on the farm Cecil Mullen, who was driving a team belonging to Homer White, a neighboring farmer drove up near the machine, and while fighting flies one of the horses switched its tail into a rapidly running belt. The tail was literally torn from the horse, leaving only a short distance between the horse and run away, tipping over the wagon, and throwing young Mullen to the ground. While no, bones were broken, he was badly bruised up, especially about the right arm. It was brought to his home in this city and is now getting along very nicely.

GREAT AIRSHIP WRECKED ZEPPELIN'S MACHINE BLOWS UP AND IS BURNED. Diaaster Overtakes Dirigible Balloon at Echterdingen After Its Remarkable Endurance Flight. Echterdingen—A dramatic end came Wednesday to Count Zeppellia's longawaited endurance flight in his monster dirigible balloon, and the proud airship which Tuesday was cut rapidly through the air and out- distancing automobiles, lies in an open field metal. The count, alm- most heart-broken and unable to endure the sight of his shattered craft, left by train for Friedrichshafen. The airship had left Nackenheim, and cove night had visited Mayence and began the homeward journey, when misfortune overtook it. Soon after its departure it was found that the front motor was working badly. landing was fine and repairs were being made when suddenly a vi- olent storm surged up. The balloon swayed to and fro, sometimes rising a few feet from the ground. Then a formidable gust of wind struck the airship broadside. At first the craft heeled over and then her bows rose in the air, carrying with them a number of soldiers holding the ropes. After posing a moment at a height of 50 feet, the airship came crashing to the ground. With a thunderous report the forward motor exploded. From the bows of the balloon shot forth a vivid flame, while from the rear escaped thick clouds of black smoke which caused the entire structure to disappear from the view of the thousands of spectators. When the air cleared the balloon when landing in an open field on a high platform with only the ragged, tangled strips of aluminum envelope still remaining. The metal stays and bands and portions of the motors were strewn about in pieces like old iron, and blackened with smoke and scorched. Officers rushed forward and found that several soldiers had been hurt. The four engineers who were on the forward platform of the airship had escaped death, but were suffering from injuries. GEORGE PETTIBONE DIES. Miners' Federation Man Succumbs to Operation for Cancer. Denver, Col.-George Pettibone, for years prominent in the councils of the Western Federation of Miners and charged, with President Moyer and former Secretary Haywood, with complicity in the murder of former Gov. Steenumberg of Idaho, died at St. Joseph's hospital Monday night from the effects of an operation for cancer. Pettibone had been ill practically ever since his confinement in the Idaho penitentiary, which began more than a year previous to the famous trials at Boise. Good News for Jamaica. Kingston, Jamaica. — After 11 months of litigation, the insurance companies have been defeated in their attempts to resist payment of the insurance claims resulting from the damage caused by the fire of January 14, 1907, when Kingston was visited by a severe earthquake. Great Parade of Pythians. Boston.—Ten thousand members of the uniform lodge, Knights of Pythias, resplendent in their uniforms and led by bands playing martial airs, Tuesday afternoon marched through the streets of Boston. The parade was composed of 25 brigades of Pythians from every section of the country, as well as from Canada. Maj. Gen. Arthur Stobbart of Indiana was at the head of the procession. At the stand on the common the parade was reviewed by Lieut. Gov. Eben S. Draper and others. To Give Turkey a Battlship New York—Leading members of the Syrian colony in this city have started a movement to present Turkey with a modern battleship. The money to build the vessel is to be raised among all the Syrians in the New World, their number being estimated at upward of 200,000, and the gift not only is to commemorate the granting of a constitution to the people of Turkey, but also to express the confidence felt by the Syrians and young Turks in this hemisphere in the genuineness of the reforms. BIG BLAZE IN CHICAGO. Railway Freight Depots and Elevators Burned. Chicago — Scores of firemen were burned and otherwise injured, more or less seriously, during the progress of a spectacular dock and grain elevator fire in the vicinity of Canal and West Sixteenth streets Monday afternoon. The property destroyed includes the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy freight depot, elevator F and the Union elevator of the Armour company, part elevator E, many freight goods and warehouses. The loss is estimated at $2,000,000. Chicago — The steel fireblow Illinois, the pride of the Chicago fire department, was sent to the bottom of the river Tuesday as the spectacular culmination of the disastrous blaze which wiped out two grain elevators, freighthouses and other buildings with a loss of $1,558,000. The fireblow was sunk by the collapse of the east wall of elevator F. near Sixteenth street and the river, and a number of firemen were crowded away severely escaped by drowning when the crash came without anything to indicate that danger was near. Two engineers and four stokers, together with Capt. Patrick Lyons, were on board the boat and were rescued with difficulty. A piperman, who was standing out by a boll of flying debris, was by a bail of flying debris and was severely cut on the head. FOUR NEGROES ARE LYNCHED. Russellville, Ky., Culprits Quietly Taken from Jail. Russellville, Ky. — Four negroes, Virgil, Tom, and Robert Jones and Joe Riley, were taken from jail here and hanged to a tree on the edge of town. No shots were fired by the mob, which was composed of about 50 men, and the people of the town knew nothing of the affair until daylight revealed the four bodies dangling from a tree just outside Russellville on the Nashville pike. The following note was found planned on one of the bodies: "Let this be a warning to you niggers to let white people alone or you will go the same way. Hugh Rogers better shut up or quit." "The negroes who were lynched were made of a jade, and at a meeting recently is said, they approved of the murder of James Cunningham, a white farmer, by his negent tenant. Rufus Browder. This murder occurred in the southern part of Logan county and it is supposed here that the mob was made up of men from that part of the county. Wreck on Southern Railway.

ZEPPELIN FUND SO FAR TOTALS SUM OF $875,000. REIMBURSE AGED AERONAUT Stuttgart Starts Fund Which Grows Amazingly—Two Airships to Be Built at Once. Stuttgart, Aug. 7.—A national committee has been formed here, under the presidency of prince von Hohen- löhe-Langenburg, to raise a public subscription for Count Zoppelin. Al- ready more than $75,750 have been raised and the promised received reach doubtless this month. With the government's $125,000 the grand total gives $75,750. A million will be raised. The subscription list of the Berlin bourse totals over $2,600. Senator Poosehl of Lubereck and the Essen Mine company each have given a similar sum and an anonymous subscription of 5,000 has been received. The total of another list which is being circulated has reached $8,500, of which the city council voted $2,500. From every city council empire come the announcement of the subscription lists for Count Zeppelin. Count Zeppelin when informed of the action of his countrymen was so touched that he could not find words to express his feelings. When he had recovered his composure he declared that he at once would make plans for the construction of two great airships which would be a departure from former models. The count contends that he can build a vessel which will and will not be able to prepare finally made it impossible for him to embody the ideas which he gained from experience in the past. A new design in motors will be submitted to his engineer which, the count declares, will do away with possibility of rotary fusion and consequent sparking. Count Zeppelin's unparalleled flight of almost thirty hours remains the sole tople of the entire empire and an enormous impetus to aeronautics has been given to the Frenchman from Friedrichshafen the past few months. The new airships will be built in Lake Constance. BALDWIN READY FOR TRIALS. New Shaft Arrives and Balloon is All in Readiness. Washington, D. C., Aug. 7.—Although Captain Baldwin has already made two successful flights in the new dirigible balloon built for the army, they were both made under difficulties. The original propeller shaft built for the machine was found defective at the last moment, and a temporary shafting has been used during the Fort Myer flights. A new shaft in which it is believed the difficulties encountered so far have been overcome arrived yesterday and will immediately be put in position. In the flights made on Tuesday and Thursday, the aircraft at reduced speed because of the temporary shafting that was used. As soon as the new shaft has been adjusted, Captain Baldwin will make a preliminary flight for speed. At a recent test one of the most enthusiastic witnesses was Capt. W. W. Kimbail, a member of the naval examining and retiring boards. He has been specially detailed to attend the Fort Myer trial test and re-examine the ship's crew. Navy department, Assistant Secretary of the Navy Newbury will attend the trials. EXTENT OF CANADA FIRE Area Burned Thirty Miles Long and Ten Miles Wide. Toronto, Aug. 7.—J. G. C.

Hosmer is safe and Coal Creek may be said to be almost certainly safe. "The loss of the Crows' Nest Pass company, owning mats at Coal Creek and Fernie and Michel, will be $200,900; the Canadian Pacific railway will lose $200,000; the Great Northern railway will lose $200,000 and company will lose more than the million. The timber in the Crows' Nest Pass company lands will not be less than a million. The loss to the city of Fernie will not be less than $2,000,000." 1.800 KILLED IN THE WAR. Streets of Tabriz Scene of Thirty-five Days' Fighting. Tabriz, Aug. 7—There has now been thirty-five days' fighting in the streets of Tabriz, and the casualties due chiefly to bombs, thrown from mortars, and shrapnel, are estimated at 1,300. Many of the finer residences of the city and hundreds of shops in the basements have been looted, the loss in this dire situation being placed at more than $1,600,000. The American missilesries in the city have been exposed to stray bullets; none of them have been injured. During on of the heavier bombments a piece of shrapnel fell in the city, killing one foot of one of the mission servants. There is a very bitter feud going on between the constitutional progressives and the reactionaries. The mass of the people, however, have informed the central government that they are not opposed to the shah. Shah Massing Troops.

The Cold Morning Barn The cold morning bath is recommended for those who can stand the cold bath, though countless many cannot. To prepare for it one should first sponge the body with cold water and step into a few inches of water drawn from a warm water pipe. It will not be warm or cold early in the morning. Splash the water over the body and wash hastily, letting the hub fill gradually. If the salt bath is used, do not throw the salt towel in the laundry. Let it cool the salt towel in the laundry, then use each individual has a salt towel that is used countless times, because it gets thoroughly saturated and is more beneficial. A cold bath should not last longer than five minutes. WONDERED WHY Found the Answer Was "Coffee." Many pale, sickly persons wonders by years why they have to suffer so, and eventually discover that the drug—caffine—in coffee is the main cause of the trouble. "I was always very fond of coffee and drank it every day. I never had much flesh and often wondered why I was always so pale, thin and weak. "About five years ago my health completely broke down and I was conned to my bed. My stomach was in such condition that I could hardly take sufficient nourishment to sustain life. During this time I was drinking coffee, didn't think I could do without it. "After awhile I came to the conclusion that coffee was hurting me, and decided to give it up and postum. I didn't like the taste of it at first, but when it was made right—bolled until dark and rich—I soon became very fond of it. "In one week I began to feel better. I could eat more and sleep better.

HAS INCREASED 44 PER CENT. IN LAST TEN YEARS. Meat Has Gone Up 50 Per Cent. in Those Years—Farm Products Higher—Drugs as a Rule Lower. Chicago.—It costs more to live, anywhere in the United States, than it did ten years ago. But comparisons of Chicago price increases with those discovered by the national government show that the law of compensation has not been altogether off the job here. For instance, coal here is higher—a full 100 per cent, higher than ten years ago. But if you have no coal, and catch cold through lack of it, you can buy quinine to cure your cold much cheaper than you could in 1898. On the other hand, coffee is cheaper on the Chicago retail market than it was a decade ago, but the drugs most in favor for curing indigestion, which coffee sometimes causes, are costlier than they were then. Ment has gone up scandalously—in fact, 50 per cent in three years. Oh, very well. Vegetables and canned goods are about as cheap as ever, and the logic of the household expense account is making more vegetarians than appeals to sentiment ever did. The pressure is growing over a which LET PASTOR WASH IN CREEKS. Two Congregations Can't Afford Bathroom for Porsonage. Pennburg, Pa.—By a decisive vote the congregations of the Sunneytown Lutheran charge have decided that cleanliness and godliness are not correlated to such an extent that a bathroom should be provided for the porsonage. The pastor, Rev. Charles L. Dapp, is spending the summer in Germany, and some of the members proposed to equip the porsonage in Sunneytown with a bathroom prior to his return. Special meetings were held by the two congregations at Sunneytown and Keeler's church, which comprise the charge, and determined opposition to the bathroom project developed among the older members. They and their pastors had managed to get along for generations without bathrooms, they argued, and they saw no reason for introducing such new-fangled notions. Three creeks in the neighborhood, it was intimated, afforded abundant opportunity for battling. When the vote was taken the result in the Sunnytown congregation was 24 in favor of the improvement and 74 against, while the majority against the bathroom in Keeler's congregation was almost as large. Women as Photographers. An ornithologist says that women make better field photographers than men, as they have that tact and perseverance which wins the confidence of the bird and gives them the opportunity to get photographs of it in natural poses. Any work in connection with natural history ought to be interesting to women, but they do not seem to have the love for it that men have. Woman Remembers When Present King of England Transgressed. Hanover, Pa.—Still amused over the fact that as a girl in England she saw Prince Albert Edward's (now King Edward's) cars boxed on a public occasion, Mrs. John I. Bingley of this town, celebrated with her husband the fifty-fourth anniversary of their marriage. Both Mr. and Mrs. Bingley tell many interesting reminiscences, and it was on the occasion of Queen Victoria's visit to Manchester in 1851 that Mrs. Bingley witnessed the public chastement of the royal heir. Her majesty, accompanied by her husband, Prince Albert, and the young Albert Edward, was riding through the city and bowing to the assembled multitudes, when, at the place where Mrs. Bingley was stationed, Prince Albert astonished the spectators by severely boxing the cars of little Prince Albert Edward for insubordination.

In 1907 the percent age over 1906 was 5.7 per cent., and 44.4 per cent. higher than 1897, the year of lowest prices during the 18 year period, and 29.5 per cent. higher than the average for the ten years, 1890 to 1900. For farm products, taken as a whole, the increase was greatest—namely, 16.9 per cent.; for food, 4.6 per cent.; for cloths and clothing, 5.6 per cent.; for fuel and lighting, 2.4 per cent.; for metals and implements, 6.1 per cent.; for lumber and building materials, 9.9 per cent.; for drugs and chemicals, 8.3 per cent.; for housefurnishing goods, 6.8 per cent., and miscellaneous, 5 per cent. Chicago lumbermen say the government's estimate is about right for the increase in Chicago market prices for their wares. Increasing depletion of the forest, they say, has kept the price ascending gradually, and the average increase in cost which enters into ordinary living expenses is around 5 per cent. Furniture and house furnishings have soared, and experts on the Chicago market say the government's 6.8 per cent. is too low to serve locally. Not less than 15 per cent, they say, has been the increase here. This is due to scarcity of material, especially oak to higher cost of the materials.

"You are to take these capsules," said Dr. Pussie, "before meals, not after, remember." "O," said the patient, "I guess it doesn't matter much." "But it does matter, sir." "You wouldn't say that, doctor, if you had ever had a meal at our boarding house."—The Catholic Standard and Times. Belgium Likes Horse Meat Washington.—So high has become the price of other meats in Brussels, according to a report from Consul General Walls, that horse meat has procured a well-established place on all tables. The consul general points out that the importation of horses for food is increasing annually, in 1906 the number reached more than 26,000. for iron and brass furniture, and to higher prices of labor. Drugs and chemicals, of such sort as to affect the cost of living, were higher, say by 5 per cent., in Chicago last year than in 1898; but they have fallen until they are about where they were, and in some instances, such as quinine, lower than ever. The higher prices were caused by the scarcity of root and herb diggers, the lower prices by the financial panic. As to canned goods, peaches sold in 1897 for the same as they did in 1997, while some canned products were much cheaper ten years ago. The cause for this was that fruits and vegetables were plentiful last year, while the production was much larger. Last year beans were scarce and higher. Up to the time of the panic buying did not drop off, but since then prices have been dropping until they are about as low as they were in 1896. The cost of preparing food products is much higher now on account of the increased cost of labor, also the increase in the farm products that go into them. Sugar is higher this year than in 1907, while coffee is cheaper. Tea is as cheap as it has been in several years. Staple commodities are not high this year in the grocery line. In many commodities the prices are 10 per cent. lower than they were in 1907. A leading clothier says that clothes are higher than in the last two years and that this should not be. This is partly due to the scarcity of wool, but is in part due to existence of clothing combinations to keep prices up. Cotton is no higher, yet the manufacturers are in combination to maintain high prices. Ten years ago wool suits were 10 per cent, lower than they are now, and were made of as good material and as well made, but without the same degree of care as to style. Higher labor cost, higher wool, prosperity, and combinations among manufacturers are the reasons he gives for the higher prices of clothing. Shoes are cheaper on the average than ever they have been, but are only five per cent, cheaper than at their highest point, in 1907. They have, however, gone up in price 15 per cent, in the last 18 years, but to compensate for that they are better made. The increase in cost of shoes is due to the high price of hides, which have increased in 18 years 150 per cent. Shoes are relatively cheaper than the hides from which they are made, this seeming paradox being due to improved methods of manufacture. The price of meat has been soaring for the last 18 years, and it is generally conceded that this has been due to the going out of the range cattle and the consequent scarcity of beef cattle, and the combinations among the packers, who have virtually a monopoly of the business, having driven the small country and town butchers out of business. This spring, during a period 10 days, pork and beef stock took an upward flight of 30 to 50 per cent, and the average for the year is fully 25 per cent. higher than last year, which was 25 per cent. more than the year before. Prosperity and high wages, as well as the scarcity of cattle, are given by the packers as being responsible for the rise in prices in the last ten years. M.

TAKES "DIP" IN LAKE ERIE. John Brown's Son, Mere Youth of 86 Staggers Life Savers. Cleveland, O.—Jason Brown, 86 years old, son of John Brown of Harper's Ferry fame, woke alarm in the breast of professional life savers at Franklin Beach park by his antics in Lake Erie the other day. Member of a pioneer picnic party, Brawn was attracted to the cool t waves. The bathhouse manager heated "Our life savers are busy now. We don't old men bathe here," he said. "Umph," and anger was near in Brawn's voice. "I'm no yearling maybe," he said, "but, young man, I don't need any life savers swimming around after me." "Donning a suit, he ran out on the pier beyond the safety line and a guard in a boat put out as he saw Brown plunges. He stayed under 2 seconds, then came up and float, varying his performance with boat front, and side strokes for an hour. "That was just a dip," he said as he came out. --- HUNTED; HE KILLS THREE ILLINOIS SLAYER SHOOTS WIFE. BABE AND EXPRESSMAN. Wanted for Murder at Fairfield, III.— Last Awful Deed Occurs at Tuliaa, Okla. Tulsa, Okla. — Clay Farris, a white man, here Saturday shot and instantly killed his wife, who was part Indian, and her one-year-old baby and fatally wounded Walter Vann, driver of an express wagon, who attempted to capture him. Harris then escaped after stealing a horse and buggy. A posse was soon formed and started in pursuit. Harris is wanted at Fairfield, Ill., for murdering a man on July 4, and Illinois officers were trailing him at the time of the murder. After shooting the man at Fairfield Harris escaped. The man died a few days later. The state of Illinois offered a reward of $500 for Harris' arrest and officers have since been following him. Harris came to Tulsa, forced his wife at the point of a revolver to sell her Indian land, took the proceeds and departed for Claremore, Okla., after ordering her to meet him there. Mrs. Harris did not leave Tulsa, but officers who had traced him this far went on to Claremore. Harris outwitted them and came back to Tulsa at midnight. He hid in his house and waited for the return of his wife, who had spent the night at the home of her father, Chauncey Owens, a wealthy halfbreed Indian. When the woman entered her yard carrying her baby in her arms, Harris approached, gun in hand. Mrs. Harris ran screening to a neighbor but before assistance could arrive he had emptied the contents of his revolver into the bodies of the woman and baby. Mrs. Harris was shot three times in the breast, dying almost instantly, while one bullet pierced the baby's heart. Expressman Vann attempted to pursue Harris, who turned upon him and fired. The first shot took effect and Vann fell, fatally wounded. Harris then forcibly took the buggy and horse of a collector standing by, and after firing an ineffectual shot at the collector, drove off toward the hills. Within a half hour a posse had been organized and started in pursuit. Several women neighbors of the Harries were witnesses of the double murder. LAPORTE'S LATEST MYSTERY. Body of a Man, Presumably Murdered, Found in Crude Grave. Laporte, Ind.-Laporte has another murder mystery for solution. The Discovery in a half-dug grave covered over with fence rails, branches of trees and other debris, on the farm of Dr. Bowell, near Rolling Prairie, of the badly decomposed body of a well-dressed man about 40 years old, has aroused the authorities to an effort to discover the identity of the body and whether the man was murdered. Coroner Mack, after carefully examining the body, declared the man had been shot through the head. The cloth.ng, which was almost new, was purchased in Grand Rapids, Mich. The only thing found in the clothing was a copy of a Minneapolis farm paper. The man wore a panama hat and patent leather shoes. Identification through recognition of the features of the face will be almost an impossibility. GREAT STRIKE IN CANADA. Twelve Thousand Canadian Pacific Mechanics Quit Work. Winnipeg, Man—Trade unionism in Canada has given defiance to the Canadian Pacific railway. Without any unlawful incident and ostentation show, the mechanics and kindred workmen quit work Wednesday, and all shops, big and little, on this great system are title. It is estimated that 12,000 men went out, the largest number being 2,200 in Montreal and 1,500 here. Two thousand men left work between Fort Willam and Vancouver, all at the dictates of the executive. Even old workmen in line for pensions went home and it seems to be the most complete tie-up in the history of railway shops in Canada. Turkish Cabinet Resignee Constantinople.—Said Pasha, the grand vizier, and the newly-formed ministry have resigned. The sultan has accepted the resignations and invited Jemaledhi Effendi, the Sheikh-ul-Islam, and Klanil Pasha to form a new cabinet.

It was reported that the sultan was stabbed in the breast Monday night by a minor palace official, but that his host of mall turned the point of the weapon. Two Young Farmers Poisoned.

"From the age of three months until fifteen years old, my son Owen's life was made intolerable by eczema in its worst form. In spite of treatments the disease gradually spread until nearly every part of his body was quite raw. He used to tear himself dreadfully in his sleep and the agony he went through is quite beyond words. The regimental doctor pronounced the case hopeless. We had him in hospitals four times and he was pronounced one of the worst cases ever admitted. From each he was discharged as incurable. We kept trying remedy after remedy, but had gotten almost past hoping for a cure. Six months ago we purchased a set of Cutcurea Remedies. The result was truly marvelous and to-day he is perfectly cured. Mrs. Lily Hedge, Camblewell Green, England, Jan. 12, 1907." A Good Reason.

Pacific Coast Borax Co., New York EXTRAVERGENCE IN DREAMS Very few persons outside of the gittering circle of our enormously rich families, our institute what is called "the best society" can understand how any young woman in this or any other country can spend upon her wardrobe such vast amounts of money as are expended by the daughters of some of these families. The history of the world does not show reckless extravagance in the way of dress. Nor, for the matter of that, does the history of the world show so riotous a use of money as that practiced by our very rich in their strictly social diversitements. Happy is the lot of the man or woman who is not tempted to such foolish indulgences, which take the edge from life's real joy! "I had a friend," said the bearded man, "who got out of paying a bill he owed in an original way. When the collector arrived he sent word to him that he would see him in a few minutes. Then he went into the parlor, shut the doors carefully, turned on every blessed burner in the chandelier, came quickly out, and had his man show the bill collector in the parlor while he hurried upstairs. Do you think that collector waited a few minutes for him to come down? Not on your photograph. He fled from that gas filled room in about two seconds by the clock. If he had stayed three-days he had been suffocated." Bobby's mother was often distressed by her small son's lapses from corrector speech, all the more because his reports from school were always good. "Bobby," she said, plaintively one day, "do you keep telling Major to set up" when you know 'sit up' is what you should say?" "Oh, well, mother," Bobby answered hastily, "of course I have lots of grammars, but I don't like to waste it on Major, when he doesn't know the difference, being a dog."-Youth's Companion.

The proof of the value of our work is that we are being imitated and largely by persons whose own hair we have actually grown and the further fact that they have very frequently mentioned us when trying to sell their goods (saying that theirs is the same or "just as good") or referred to PORO. We advise you to use only PORO Hair Grower, (the oudest and best of its kind). See that the name PORO is on every box, not genuine without it. Prepared only by Mrs. A. M. PORO E. MRS. A. M.

"What's all the row about?" the hungry man queried as the manager of the city restaurant was seen of rush excitedly to the cashier's desk and detain a departing individual. The waiter explained. For a month past some of the numbered checks had been missing, and it had been discovered that certain patrons were economizing at the expense of the management. A man would order 15 cents' worth and receive a check for the amount. Then he would secrete the check when the waiter wasn't looking and order a quarter's worth more of catables. The waiter would then give a check for 40 cents, but when it came time to pay the customer would use the 15-cent ticket to get by the door. "H'm," muttered the hungry man; "fine scheme," and in the excitement he passed a Canadian dime on the cashier.
