One way is to pay'no attention to it; at least, not until it develops into pneumonia, or bronchitis, or pleurisy. Another way is to ask your doctor about Ayer’ erry| Pectoral.

The silver plated are, without a doubt, the most eco- nomical; they wear well; they look better and cost. very little more than the ordinary kinds. Your sideboard is hardly com- plete without a silver tea set; silver cake and fruit haskets should also be placed there. The necessary things in. cut glass are the: decanter, berry bowl and the celery dish. GALL AND INSPEGT OUR LINE (ON TIME) GEO. T, BAKER & COMP'Y LOCATED IN CITY DRUG STORE.

The crisis in Cuba being over, General Funston will be super- seded by one of our. dress-suit, pink-tea generals. The sewer is finished. It has been some time in coming, but 1t is here at last and ready to use. The wonder is that we ever got along without it for so long. When that John W. Johnson rumpus ends, as it seems likely to end, with the scratching of the name from the ballot, the democratic managers are going to appear in the lizht of having done a tremendous lot of bleating over a mighty little scare. And it will lose votes for John A. Mrs. Reginald Vanderbilt was forced to remove her hat ina Boston theater the other evening just like any ordinary woman of _|the parquet or dress circle. It isn’t that Boston has any less respect for ‘royalty,” only she doesn’t intend that any of “them New York swells” shall come up to her town and show off. Richard Crocker, ex-Tammany boss now living in England, has brought suit for libel against a British magazine which has been writing up his history as a Tammany chief. The ex-Ameri- can says that he never benefited directly or indirectly by any graft. Then who did get it? Can it be that Richard is not as smart as he has been cracked up to be. CAN THIS BE TRUE!! “All the true pathos, music and poetry, together with every phase of genumne ethics and esthetics is embodied in the sentiment that holds sway over an oppressed peopie. No gleam of sunshine ever reflected itself from the generation of gold grabbers, except through humil iation arising out of radical reformation.” This is not an essay on the ‘“‘sense of nonsense,” but the introduction te a write-up of the Jubilee singers, which appeared in a local paper this week. The “pencil pusher” must have been t-e-r-ri-b1y moved. MAN HUMBLED. Once iu a while, nature, whom man has learned to treat almost as his plaything, rises and smites her conqueror in a way tore- mind him of his frailty, This has just recently occurred in Lower California, where the Colorado- river, wrathy at the arrogance of man in partially diverting it from its channel for irrigation purposes, broke all restraint and is now forming a great inland sea outof what is known as the Salton sink. This mighty valley was for- merly a part of the ocean, but was cut off by a seismic upheaval, and when the sun dried up the water, deep beds of salt were left. The Southern Pacific rail- voad had been mining this deposit for a number of years, and several small but prosperouns villages had sprung up in the valley. . . These towns, the - railroad tracks and all have been buried under the onrushing water, and now over 400 square miles of land have been inundated. This is not -the worst; unless the water can ‘be stopped, 1t is certain that the whole valley, an area larger than Lake Superior, will be overflowed. " In the' meantime engineers are matching their skill against the strength and fury of the out- raged Colorado, in an_effort to force the river back into its old channel. Man ‘may - conquer in the end, but he has atleast been taught a lesson in humility. . V“The State Press anea.polig Journal: = “De 'way ‘some politicians succeed,” says.

HOUSE PARTLY WRECKED, Attempt to Assassinate Attorney at Chehalis, Wash. Chehalis, Wash,, Oct. 11.—An at- tempt to assassinate Judge M. Yoder, a well Known attorney, by blowing his house up with dynamite, was made during the night. The dynamite tora & hole about eight feet long and three feet wide in the floor alongside the bedstead where the judge and ‘his wife were sleeping and the couple were thrown to the floor by the shock. Al- though : painfully bruised neither re- ceived any serious injuries. The lawyer received several threat- ening ‘letters during the trial of a divorce case, but no attention was paid to them. BASEBALL PLAYER KILLED. Teeth of Team Mate Imbedded In Skull by Collision. Rolla, Mo,, Oct. 11.—In a baseball game near the Maries county line two young men named Clark and McKee, belonging to the same team, collided with terrific force while trying to catch a ball, McKee being killed al- most instantly and Clark being ren- dered unconscious. Clark was the taller of the two and it is reported “that his upper teeth struck McKee in the forehead and were imbedded in the young man’s skull and broken off. . The marine hospital service has been informed, through the state de- partment, of the appearance of plague at Osaka, Japan, and of cholera at Shanghai, China. Cancer of the stomach caused the death at St. Louis of Dr. Max Hempel, aged forty-three years, nationally known as a German educator and writer on scientific matters. The navy department has been ad- vised that it is probable that the bat- tleship South Dakota will be ready for trial on the Pacific coast about Nov. 1. The Vermont, which is being built at Quincy, Mass., will be ready for trial in December. The condition of Mrs. Jefferson Da- vis, widow of the late president of the Confederacy, who has been ill at the Hotel Majestic, New York city, for several days, is now regarded as se rious.

The Marvels of Science. When we hear of rays of light capa- .ble of achieving photography through a foot thickness of solid irom, of the charting of the sky itself on such a scale that a thousand million members of the firmament can be recorded each in its appointed place, of the discov- ery of something like the sense organs of human knowledge on the roots, stems and leaves of plants; of the tracking of diseases which decimate humanity to their obscure source in the parasite of & parasite and of the proc- ess by which two patient and humble sclentists working upon a few grains of an element in a mere secondary form managed to revolutionize our ‘whole conception of the most stupen. dous forces of the physical world it seems indeed a mystery that the ap- petite for surprise and sensation should torn aside from what the pursuit of truth can offer and prefer to regale {tself with the petty products of trump- ery, invention and ingenuity. — Pall Mall Gazette. Beauty of Cloud It is not of first ‘sight easy to say ‘why people so rarely give more than a passing glance to the realm of air above them. Is it because we cannot have a finger in this department of the wonders of nature, cannot net and label anything in those blue fields, pin it down ‘on cork or fatten it in Canada balsam; cannot here annihilate dis- tance with our ingenious Instruments, that we neglect the phenomena of the sky? Thete above us, always ours for 8 lift of the eyes, is, beauty in endless change for- the conterrted mind and for the restless one the challenge of the ceaseless ‘thaumaturgy which -seems Httle nearer being found out than ‘when the world began, and yet in com- parison with such lines of research as are offered by cuckoo’s eggs or the “protective devices” of caterplllars the’ region of the clouds may be said to be unexplored.—Saturday Review. The Arab War Chant. | Captain 'Von Herbert describes how the sacred chant was sung by Osman ‘Pasha’s force in that last dreadful sor- tie from Pleyha. He knows, for, as be says, “as a youngster of seventeen, be- ing then in the Turkish service, I took part In the/charge” It Is a solemn four. part chant for ‘deep male voices, with intervals, the melody recurring again and again, of alternating har monies hummed almost: pianissimo, to the. words ‘“Alla Akbar,” and then agaln rising “to a great outburst on the fifth note.”” There s more than a sug- gestion of plain song,: that song which drifted westward from the east.—Pall Mall Gazette. \ Vedderly~Yes, but she has a lot more’ won't power.—Chi- cago News.

There are no ‘“between rounds,” no breathing spells, with the yellowtail, He Is fighting for his life desperately, | DT, no quarter given nor asked, with an amazing staying power akin to that marvelous faculty of the leaping tuna. The angler is far more likely to be the first one exhausted; the inches of line gradually granted to the ‘“pump- ing” rod are earfied by the sweat of his brow and the semiparalysis of the bi- ceps. “Have I got a fish or a devil?” ex- claimed a weary Englishman after a half hour’s work, with Sir Yellowtail still gamboling at the end of 200 feet of llne. And many have shared his astonishment while “catching” these animated galvanic batteries. That man has lived and lived In- tensely to whose bending rod a half dozen lusty yellowtail have capltulated in a bright afternoon.

Butler presented to congress the first |- genuine American flag, made of Amer ican materials hy American labor, ever constructed In this country. Prior to that time all American government flags had been made of English bunt- Ing. Since then all our official flags have been the product exclusively of American material and labor. “ There were twenty-six stars in-the flag at that time, His Last Name. A gentleman once asked a lad what was his last name. “Johnny,” replied the boy. “Well, what is your full name?” “Johnny Brown, sir.” “Well, how can Johnny be your last name?” “Because, Sir, when I was born my name was Brown, and Johnny wasn’t gliven to me till T was a month old.” A Narrow Escape. The company bhad assembled in the church, but _the bridegroom was no- where to be found. Finally a mes- senger announced that the young man had been run over and killed while on his way to the church. “And just think,” she said a month afterward to a friend, “what a narrow escape I had from becoming a widow!” A Prank of Memory. Why have we memory sufficient to cetain the minutest circumstances that have happened to us and yet not enough to remember how often we have related them to the same person? . —La Rochefoucauld. Great Discovery. The editor of a Kansas paper states that he once-borrowed a Winchester rifle and started up the street a few days after to deliver-the weapon to its owner. The delinquent subscribers got it into: their heads that.he. was on the- warpath, and every one he met insisted on paylng what he owed him. One man wiped ont a debt of ten years’ standing.. On his return to his office he | found a load of hay, ffteen bushels of corn, ten bushels of potatoes, a load ‘of- wood and a barrel of turnips that had Dbeen brought In. We would like to borrow a Winchester for a day or two. —S8t. Louils Post-Dispatch.
