EPOCH.

The transition from long lingering
and painful sickness to robust health
marks an epoch in the life of the individ-
ual. Such a remarkable event is treas.
ured in memory and the agency whereby
the good health has been attained is
gratefully blessed. Hence it is that so
much is heard in praise of Electric Bit
ters. So many feel they owe their res-
toration to health, to the use of the great
Alternative and tonic. If you are troubled
with any disease of kidneys. liver or
stomach, of long or short standing you
will surely find relief by use of Electric
Bitters. Sold at SOC and 81 per bottle

Hear what he says:
/ have been practical druggist in
Tyler for number of years, and in that
time have had occasion to examine, try,
and notice the effect of nearly all the
highly recommended preparations or pat
ent medicines on the market, and as
have suffered untold misery myself, the
past number of years, from severe form
of inflammatory rheumatism, and could
find nothing to cure or relieve me, had
almost drawn a conclusion that all pat
ent medicines were more or less frauds
until about one year ago, 1 was in
duced by friend now living in Tyler. to
try a preparation known as B, or Bo.
tanic Blood Balm. and after long per-
suasion on his part. l finally made up
my mind to make one more effort to rid
myself of the terrible aff1iction; and il
now affords me the greatest pleasure of
my life to state to the citizens of Smith
county that am entirely cured, with no
traces of the disease left and all effected

Cen trail roads. I'VE don't ask any ad
vantage over the Canadian roads that
come into this country" said Mr.. King,
''but we do want them to obey the same
laws that we do"
BY Commissioner Blair-DO you know
of any good that the interstate law has
done?
''Yes, it has shown the roads that
there is stronger power than they are,
and has forced the roads into practical
competition with each other"
''Now, Mr.. King, you nave seen the
working of the interstate law. Can
you give the commissioners any idea
how it can be improved"
To this Mr.. King replied: ''The
greatest benefit to American railroads
would he to put the Canadian roads that
come into this country on par with our
roads, and if they violate any provision
of the law let them be punished, but
make the penalty the same for both
American and Canadian offenders; that
is all we ask"
"The passage of the interstate law
caused the Erie road to cut down its eX-
penseS about 100000. But it is now
making about as much as before the
passage of the law"
At o'clock the commission adjourned
until 10 o'clock tomorrow, at which
time Chauncey M. Depew will appear
before the committee.

Buchanan, president; Coli Bell, cashier;
j. r. Stockdale, E. j. Hale and Grant
Bell, members of the Minneapolis
Bicycle club, rode to this city from
Minneapolis On their bicycles yesterday.
1t took them seventeen hours to COM
plete the journey, as the wind bothered
them. On the whole trip they rode
ninety-two miles to MankatO and left
for Minneapolis this morning.
One of the most interesting suits
ever tried in Mankato is occupying
Judge Seyerance's time at present. 1t
is the case of Slingerland VS.. Singer
before Judge Buchanan, but no decision
was reached. The witnesses were ex-
amined at KaSson last week, and the
lawyers are now arguing before Judge
Severance. The son sues his father for
the property known as the Sacramento
farm, near Rochester. The land con-
tains 1850 acres and also $1,000 worth of
personal property. The land was prom
ised the son when he married. but his
father failed to keep his promise. c. G..
Wilson, of Rochester, and Judge
Thomas Wilson appear for defendant,
and Cush K. Davis and Frank Kellogg,
Of st. Paul. George Edgerton, of Kas-
son. and Gordon E. Cole, of Faribault,
appear for the plaintiff.
A five-year-old child of Mr.. and Mrs.
E. A. Hanchett, of Madison Lake, this
county, met with peculiar and fatal
accident. 1t fell into privy vault and
was not discovered until it had been
there long time. Its cries were I'M
heard and it could not get out alone.
When it was finally rescued it was
nearly dead from suffocation and died
early this morning. The parents are
nearly distracted over the accident.
