EUPEPSY,

This is a Greek word, signifying just
the opposite of dyspepsia. Few Ameri.
cans need to have the meaning of dys'
peDsia explained, but all would like to
get "eupepsv." One can, if he chooses
swallow drugs as remedy, but we think
their is much better way. Much dys
pepsia results from ill-cooked meals, eat
en- hastily in the hurry of travel, and
digestion is further impaired by i'll
temper and vexation produced by rough
riding railroads, uncomfortable cars
slow time, and missing connections. II
pIoduce "eupepsy" take vacation trII
on "The Burlington" to Chicago, st
Louis, Kansas City or Denver. Iol
will traverse the most beautiful country
in the West, be served with the fines
meals on palatial dining cars, rest a
night in the most luxurious Pullmans
and be treated with courteous attention

HOW CORN Is CANNED.

The canning factory made an eXper.
imental run to-day and next week will
| be in full blast. The season lasts only a
month, but during that time u vast guam
tity of corn is canned. Mr.. Iodapp has
| decided TO put up nothing but corn this
year, and expects to turn out 10000
cans. 1t requires 500 tons of corn IN the
ear to fill tins number oil cans. Mr.. Ho-
dapp has 90 acres of corn and has con-
tracted for 100 acres more and these al e
expected to yield four tons to the acre.
The varieties of the corn. which is of
course sweet, are the Crosby, the Con-
cord and the Evergreen. These mature
one after the other for a month and SO
constantly furnish fresh supply. The
season is trifle late this year. When
the factory starts in In full force it will
require 10 hands to husk the corn, at
tend the machines, etc, and they will
be able to fill from 200 to 800 cans an
hour. The ears after being husked first
go through machine to remove the
silks, then 20 through cutter and the
cobs are thrown out and the corn sifted.
The corn then goes into the filling ma
chine, of which Mr.. Hodapp is the in
ventor, and the sweeteningis added and
the full cans are sent through sIuce-
way filled with hot water. The heat
drives all the air out of the cans, which
are next taken to the header and have
the tops put on and are Theoretically
sealed. Then they are put into large
crates holding several hundred cans
each and are immersed into boiling WA
ter. Here the cooking Is done for fifty
minutes and as the cans are air tight no
foreign substance can find its way with
in. Then the cans are cooled and the
labels are put on and the cans are pack
ed for shipment. The territory covered
by this factory extend over this and the
adjoining states. The excellence of the
product has made for it large and pro-
fitable market.

VENUS AND TANNHAUSER

1t has been decided by the State AgricuItur-
al Society to make Saturday, Sept. eth, chill
dren's day, on which all children under II
years of age. and accompanied by parents or
guardians. will be admitted free. This is for
children of the State. The special attractions
will be for the children from II to / O'Clock,
when there will be exciting pony races, and
the genuine Texan Vaqueros, in their novel
and VIC derful performances, and 10 full
FLOODED Chippewa Indians. The children will
be taken care of on the grounds by comr etent
officers. and everything will be done to make
the occasion memorable one. In connection
with the management of the Art department
IL might he stated that Mr.. X. c. Munger spent
four months in Paris at the Expos ton, as
agent for this society, and while there met the
Sultan of Turkey, and received from him
many valuable hints in regard to the hanging
OF the paintings at the State Fair. The love.
Hest gem of the Art Collection, and the most
wonderful painting ever brought into the
Northwest, will be Mr. Julius Kessler's paint
ing, "Venus and Tannhauser." II represents
the soul-touching parting scene between the
German bard of the. HartZ Mountains, aud the
beautiful queen of love. The painting cost
5000, and is us large as one side of an ordin
airy room.

The council has finally decided to
do the grading which it agreed TO do
around the Saulpaugh House. II has
even gone further and ordered that
Nam street be graded the full width.
This is the correct thing to do. The
owners of the lots between Main street
and the Northwestern yard should now
grade up their property and an insight
ly hole will be eradicated.
The heat yesterday was not as eXces-
sive as on Sunday, but was enough 30 for
all practical purposes. AS on that day,
threatening clouds came up towards
evening, but passed over without ram.
During the night, however, a high wind
sprung up and rain storm, accompanied
by some thunder, followed. The at
mosphere was not materially cooled, but
along toward noon to-day cooler wind
prevailed and the weather became quite
comfortable. The hot weather was n
great boon for the corn.
Those who have long been agitating
for the removal of Cargill Bros ware
house from lower Main street will at last
be satisfied; for the railroad company is
prepared to move it away at once. The
building has always made il dangerous
to approach the bridge from Front
street, as it shut off all view of trains APP
preaching from the north. In one case,
at least, an accident was caused. Years
ago the Milwaukee road was allowed to
erect the building across the street,
with the understanding that on thirty
days notice it should be removed. The
council has never thought it advisable to
give the notice, though the matter has
been discussed often, for fear of offend
ing the railroad company and delaying
its proposed improvements in the city.
The present solution of the matter is
satisfactory to all parties.

BAD ACCIDENT.

Chas. Ii. Brown. laborer on the &. 4
N. w. road, met with a bad accident
Monday afternoon one mile this side OF
kasota. He was at work where the
Omaha road is laying new steel rails and
was busily engaged screwing nuts when
another train approached on the ada
cent track and ran over his left leg be-
low the knee. The bone was broken in
several places and the flesh terribly
mutilated. Brown was conveyed to his
home at Eagle Lake and DR.. Warner was
summoned and dressed the leg. He
took several pieces of bone from the
wound. The man will probably save
the use of his limb, though he should
have been taken to the hospital in this
city, where prcmpter attention could
have been secured and more care be-
slowed for some time to come.
