There's patent medicine which is
not patent neutrality-suspicious.
as that may sound. It's discovery!
the golden discovery OF medical sci
ence, It's the medicine for you-tired
run down, exhausted, nerve-wasted
men and women; for you sufferers
from diseases of skin or scalp, liver
or lungs--its chance is with every
one, its season always, because It
aims to purify the fountain OF
life-the blood-upon which all such
diseases depend. The medicine is DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
The makers of it have enough conf
dence in it to sell it on trial. That is
you can get it from your druggist,
and il it doesn't do what it's claimed
to do, you can get your money back,
every cent of it.
That's what its makers call taking
the risk OF their words.

Campbell of Ohio, now governor, went
to Kilgore one afternoon and said:
''Look here, Kilgore, have u favor
to ask. 1 have bill to secure an Gu
largemlnt of the custom house at Gin

and the business transacted makes it
necessary to increase the size of the

want you to object. know that if you
examine the bill you will find nothing in
it to object to. You let this bill pass,

cure my election. And L promise you
now that after L am inRugurated gov

LOUISVILLE, KY, April 1t is just
learned here that Harper's Ferry
Henry county, was almost completely
destroyed by the tornado. The village,
composed of less than two dozen houses,
is considerable distance from any rail-
road. The houses were not far apart
and every one of them was directly IL
the course of the tornado. Men, women
and children were buried beneath
the ruins. Not house re-
mains standing, and the whole
surrounding country was covered with
wreckage. Mrs. Laura Thomas, wife of
a farmer, was found dead by a large
house about 100 yards away. An infant
child Of farmer named Fletcher was
found beneath the ruins of its fathers
residence smothered to death. Seven or
eight were injured badly, but none ia
tally. Those who escaped Immediately
took the others in charge and carried
them to a school house in the hills not
lar distant, where they remained until
morning. Then assistance came from
= .rmers whose houses escaped. The
property lost will amount to $40 ZOO.

CHICAGO CARPENTERS.
Some 5000 Go Ont for Eight Hours, Among
Them Many Nom Union Men, and Build
ing Operations Paralyzed.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, April THE carpen-
tiers strike took place this morning, ac-
cording to programme. 1t is estimated
that between 5000 and 5000 men are out l..
Carpenter work on nearly all of the large
obs has been brought to a stand-still e.
No trouble has been reported from any
quarter so far.
The strike is for eight hours as day 8
work with wages at forty cents per hour.
A great many of the non-union men
quit work out of sympathy with their
union brethren, and it was claimed most
Of them would join the Carpenters ,
union.
'We are we'll organized, have plenty
of money, and will make a fight to the
last ditch" said Secretary Howard.
"Reports are coming rapidly from all
over the city, and so far as we now know
there is not union carpenter at work.
In fact, building operations have been
practically stopped.
Secretary Johns of the master carpen-
tiers said: $50 far as I can tell about
all the carpenters in the city have left
their tools. We shall not attempt to at
once resume work with the help of
nom union men, but will wait until our
Thursday meeting before doing anything
decisive. -
Many of the masons and bricklayers
who were at work on the buildings have
been compelled TO lay off because of the
carpenter work on the various structures
being at a standstill. Altogether :he
paralysis of building operations in Chi
cago is to-day at least complete.
