The Women Also Recom
mend Pe-ru-na.
Miss Blanch Grey, 174 Alabama
street, Memphis, Tenn.. a society-wom
an of Memphis, writes:
“To a society woman whose nervous
force is often taxed to the utmost from
lack of rest and irregular meals I
know of nothing which is of so much
benefit as Peruna. I took it a few
» months ago when I felt my strength
giving away, and it soon made itself
manifest in giving me new strength
and health.”—Miss Blanch Grey.
Mrs. X. Schneider, 2409 Thirty-sev
enth Place, Chicago, 111.', writes:
“After taking several remedies with
out result, I began last year to take
your valuable remedy, Peruna. I was
a complete wreck. Had palpitation of
the heart, cold hands and feet, female
weakness, no appetite,trembling, sink
ing feeling nearly all the time. You
said I was suffering with systemic
catarrh, and I believe that I received
your help in the nick of time. I fol
lowed your directions carefully and
can say to-day that I am well again.
I cannot thank you enough for my
cure.”
Peruna cures catarrh wherever lo
cated. Peruna is not a guess nor on
experiment—it is an absolute scien
tific certainty. Peruna has no substi
tutes—no rivals. Insist upon having
Peruna.
A free book written by Dr. Hartman,
on the subject ot catarrh In Its differ
ent phases and stages, will be sent
free to any address by The Peruna
Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio.
Catarrh is a systemic disease curable
only by systemic treatment. A remedy
that cures catarrh must aim directly
at the depressed nerve centers. This is
what Peruna does.
If you do not derive prompt and sat
isfactory results from the use of Pe
rune write at once to Dr. Hartman,
giving a full statement of your case
and he will be pleased to give you his
valuable advice gratis.

The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, O.
FAR. LLEWELLYN JORDAN, Medi
U cal Examiner of the U. S. Treas
ury department, graduate of Colum
bia College, and who served three years
at West Point, has the following to
say of Peruna:
•‘Allow me to express my gratitude to
you tor the benefit derived from your
wonderful remedy. One short month
has brought forth a vast change and 1
now consider myself a well man after
months of suffering. Fellow suf
ferers, Peruna will cure you.”
Peruna immediately invigorates the
nerve-centers which give vitality to the
mucous membranes. Then catarrh
disappears. Then catarrh is perma
nently cured.

Have You Kidney
or Bladder Trouble?
Tho Base of Mrs. Nancy Ball.
There are no diseases ihat more quickly and surely derange the entire constitution than
Kidney or Bladder trouble, and it behooves every man and woman suffering from these diseases
to have themselves cured at once. The body depends upon the Kidneys to throw off the waste
matter of the system, and when it fails to do this the result is an interference with digestion, a
sudden stoppage of the free circulation of the blood and a serious weakening of the heart.
Also rheumatism could not exist if it were not for weak and deranged Kidneys.
Mrs. Nancy Ball, proprleto.' of the Ball
House, Columbia, Miss., says : “ l was for a
long time a great sufferer from dropsy
complicated with Kidney and Biadder trou
bles; my feet and h/.nds were swollen and
at times 1 was unable to walk about. My
family phvsician had exhausted his skill in
the treatment of my case without giving me
any relief. 1 was then induced to give
Smith's Bure Kidney Cure a trial and to my
utter astonishment the first bottle relieved
me, and 1 am in perfect health and able to
attend to all my duties about the hotel. 1
consider Smith's Sure Kidney Cure the great
est medicine of the age.’’

James Madison Lively, of New
York, Proposes a Plan to Fi
nance Ischmian Canal.
SAYS IT WILL BEAR INSPECTION.
Send* HI* Idea* to tlie President—•
The President May Kxnmine Mr.
Lively** Proposition, Ilut It Xot
At All Certain That He Will K»I
low It.
Oyster Bay, July 13.—President
Roosevelt has received an official com
munication from James Madison
Lively, of New York, proposing a plan
to finance the proposed isthmian
canal. Mr. Lively suggests that his
proposition “WILL BKAR INSPEC
TION AND TEST TO THE LAST
ANALYSIS.” Mr. Lively details the
steps necessary to be taken prior to
the actual beginnig of the isthmian
canal project, and then proposes “to
place in a designated depository of
the United States government a ma
jority of the capital stock of the canal
construction company, together with
a deed of trust for 100years, approved
by the attorney-general of the United
States. This deed and the majority,
carrying control of the company’s
stock, would be the base of the bond
issue. Provided, the company’s stock
shoidd be $500,000,000, its directors
would resolve to make $300,000,000 of
it preferred stock, and guarantee to
pay annually a dividend or interest of
2Vs per cent., payable semi-annually
on the prefered stock for 100 years,
into the treasury or depository.
“The company could then issue
bonds for $U>0,000,000 on what is
termed by financiers the Colonial sys
tem, bearing 3 per cent, interest, pay
able semi-annually at the United
States treasury. The funds would
provide a sinking fund of 1 per cent,
of the issue, to be deducted annually
for the redemption of the bonds at
stated periods at the option of the
holders, to the amount only of>money
for such redemption in the treasury.
To secure the bonds, the company
wodld deliver to the United States
treasurer the $300,000,000 of preferred
stock.
“In the distribution of the money
received in the Isthmian canal financial
problem, it will be observed that in
the process $3,000,000,00 of the pre
ferred stock bearing 2% per cent,
dividend, paying semi-annually, is
paid into The depository designated
by the United States government. The
bond issue is to be $150,000,000, which
bears an annual interest of 3 per
cent., payable semi-annulaly, and 1
per cent, as the annual sinking fund,
based on the face of the old bond issue
for 100 years. There is still 1 per
cent., based on the bond issue that
is retained by the national treasury,
to be disbursed by the United States
commission appointed by the presi
dent. This fund can be expended by
the commissioner in paying the sal
aries of the commissioners, main
taining and keeping the government
forts that may be required to
protect its trusteeship, and also to
pay the tonnage of the government
vessels through the Isthmian canal.
The entire tonnage that will seek
passage through this canal from all
the nations of the world as well us
the ships of citizens of the United
States, will thus be required to pay
a fixed rate per tonnage for shipping
of all kinds, and thereby a rule uni
form to all nations be adopted.”
At his leisure the president may ex
amine Mr. Lively’s proposition, but it
is not all certain that he will follow
the suggestions embodied in it.
THE WESTERN FLOODS,
Many People Forced to Leave Tlielr
Home* at Topeka—About Sta
tionary at Komaa City.
Topeka, Kas., July 13.—The Kaw
river continues to rise gradually. The
water has crept up over the driveways
in the City park, and in North Topeka
more residents in the lowlands have
been forced to leave their hornys. The
mill owners have moved their grain
from the river warehouses, and an in
creased force has been put to work at
the packing house pumping out
water. The Santa Fe fast mail from
the east Saturday morning was sent
via Ottawa, owing to a washout at
Lakeview, near Lawrence. The Santa
Fe and llock Island switches here are
submerged.
About Stationary ut Kaniai City.
Kansas City, Mo., July 13.—The
Missouri river is about stationary
from Kansas City northward, while
the Kaw has risen but slightly. The
local weather bureau predicts a fall
in both streams within the next 21
hours. No further serious damage
has resulted here from the flooding
of the lowlands.
At Dca Moines.
Dos Moines, la., July 13.—Water in
both rivers is receding slowly, and
so further damage from the Hood is
anticipated. The river still covers
miles of residence and business prop
erty, however, and business in the
factory and wholesale districts is
largely suspended. Many hundreds of
flood sufferers are being sheltered in
tents and fed at public expense, ami
will be dependent on charity for sev
eral weeks.
Outlaw Tracy.
Seattle, Wash., July 13.—A special
to the Times from Black Diamond
says that Outlaw Tracy was last seen
at five o’clock Friday afternoon at
the upper end of Green river.
CHICHGO FREIGHT HANDLERS.
Five Commit!*** Report That They
Wore Innlile to Find Otlleial*
of Th*ir Rond*.
Chicago, July 13.—At 12:30 p. m.
five committees of freight handlers
returned to union headquarters, and
reported that they had been unable
to find the officials of their respective
roads to confer with. It was reported
that the managers and superintend
ents were themselves holding a meet
ing. President Curran told the freight
men to wait awhile and see if they
could not yet find the railroad offi
cials.
At 2:15 it was reported at the strik
ers’ headquarters that practically all
the railroads had refused to pay over
17 cents an hour, thus bringing about
a deadlock.
The executive committee of freight
handlers’ union has decided to for
mally ask the switchmen to strike.
A committee immediately started for
the various yards to make the re
quest.
LORD KITCHENER ARRIVES.
Welcomed at Paddington by the
Prince of Wale*, and Then tJoe*
to St. Jam** Jlace.
Southampton, July 13.—The Pacific
Steam Navigation Co.’s steamer Oro
tava, which left Cape Town June 23,
with Lord Kitchener and staff on
board, arrived here at 8:30 o’clock Sat
urday morning. Owing to the fact
that Maj. Gordon, who also was a
passenger on the steamer, had been
stricken with smallpox. Lord Kitch
ener and his staff only were allowed
to land. The Orotava has been placed
in quarantine.
Welcomed at London.
London, July 13.—Lord Kitchener

Lord Kitchener at Paddington, where
an address was presented to the gen
eral. The latter shortly after start
ed for St. James palace, arriving
there at 1:27 p. m. The prince of
Wales was already there, awaiting
him.
Kitchener and the generals who
accompanied him, were entertained
at luncheon in the great banqueting
hall, where covers were laid for 50
persons. The prince of Wales occu
pied the central seat, with Kitchener
on his right, and with Lord Roberts
opposite. Among the guests were the
premier. Lord Salisbury, Lord Lans
downe, Mr. Broderick and Lord Rag
lan, the under secretary for war. The
hall was hung with pictures repre
senting war scenes.
QUIET^AT ELDORADO.
The Presence of Troop* In Saline
County, 111.. Ha* n Qaletlng
Effect.
Carbondale, 111., July 13/—The pres
ence of a small detachment of the
Illinois national guard at Eldorado,
the scene of the recent outbreaks
against a negro industrial school and
colored citizen of Saline county, had
a quieting effect on the conditions,
and all is quiet. The troops arrived
late Friday night, accompanied by
Assistant Adjutant-General Ewerts,
who has begun a searching examina
tion into the conditions which have
existed there for several months.
Hardly a doubt exists but that many
arrests will follow the investigation,
as it is comparatively easy to locate
several of the ringleaders.
A MAN’S BLOODY WORK.
Killed HU Wife, Brother-In-Law, HI*
Rival and Fatally Wounded HU
Father-In-Law.
Portland, Ore., July 13.—In a mad
desire for vengeance in return for
real or supposed wrongs, A. L. Beld
ing ,a bartender, shot and instantly
killed his wife, liis mother-in-law,Mrs.
L. McCroskey, and Frank Woodward,
a male inmate of the house, and fa
tally wounded his father-in-law, W.
McCroskey.
Belding married the daughter of
the McCroskeys eight years ago, but
has not lived with his wife for some
time. He was jealous of Woodward,
whom he suspected was on intimate
terms with Airs. Belding.
Going to the McCroskey home, at
the corner of Fifth and Flanders
streets, he gained admittance, and
meeting Woodward in the hallway,
drew a revolver in each hand,exclaim
ing: “You first!” tiring as he spoke.
Woodward fell to the floor mortally
wounded. Mrs. Belding rushed upon
her husband, and was shot down by
the infuriated man. Then the parents
of Mrs. Belding came into the hall
way and were both shot by Belding.
After his bloody work was finished,
Belding walked out of the house and
gave himself up.
When asked for the cause of the
terrible crime Belding simply said:
“These people have been misusing me
for years, and I am sorry that I did
not kill them all. They are a bad
lot."
More Bodies Found.

was sent out from the interior of the

retail dealer of Brooklyn, restraining then
from making or selling the Dr. Clark's Fool

“Foot-Ease.” Similar suits will be brought
against others wiio are now infringing on
the Foot-Ease trade-mark and common law
rights.
Feeble Japanese I.aiignage.
And now it is announced that the Jap
anese language lacks cuss words. The
worst a Jap can say to anybody, in his na
tive tongue, is that he is a “fellow,” and if
he wants to express indignation of a
strong variety, he shouts: "There, there!”

GOOD WORDS.
The following communication has just
been received by C. S. Crane, General Pas
senger Agent of the Wabash I.ine, from
Mrs. Edyth Tozier Wettierred, Editress of
the “Morning Oregonian,” Portland. Ore.,
and a well-known journalist, now in the
East after attending the National Editorial
meeting at Hot Springs:
Mr. Crank—I want to tell you that I have
traveled extensively over the United States,
hut never enjoyed a ride more than my trip
from St. Louis to Buffalo via the WABASH.
The ride is very pleasant from the fact
that the road passes through a grandly
beautiful country, green fields and shady
forests, which always gives one a comfort
able feeling. The Road is so free from dust,
and even though the day was so very warm,
the train was cool and the cars free from
dust, and when night came on a refreshing
sleep could be enjoyed as well as in the
mountains of Oregon. I certainly enjoyed
the trip which had previously been delayed,
fearful of traveling during such warm
weather. Edttii Tozier VVetherred.”
