Catarrh Can't be Cured.

with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they
cannot reach the seat of the disease
Catarrh is blood or constitutional dis
ease. and in order to cure it you have
to take internal remedies. Halls Ca
tarrh cure is taken internally, and acts
directly on the blood and mucous sur
faces. Halls Catarrh Cure is no quack
medicine. 1t was prescribed by one of
the best physicians in this country for
years. and is a regular prescription. 1t
is composed of the best tonics known,
combined with the best blood purifiers,
acting directly on the mucous surfaces.
The perfect combination of the two ir-
gradients is what produces such won
derful results in curing catarrh. Send

! EMPEROR WILLIAM made a great
speech Thursday on the school question.
He says the Germans are devoting too
much time to Latin and Greek to the
detriment of their mother tongue, and
recommends that the basis of all in
structions be in German, the official
language of the empire, and that the
amount of study be curtaiied as too
close application ruins the eyesight OF
large percentage of students. He says
too, that preference should be given in
all schools to German history, geog-
raphy and legendary. Strange that he
should so exactly hit of the underlying
principles Of the Bennett law.

THE GREAT MISSOURI DAM.
Turning Vast Water Power to Account.
A Great Undertaking.

Turning Vast Water Power to Account. -
A Great Undertaking.
Work has been begun on the darn
which is to be built across the Missouri
at Black Eagle Falls. This great work
will utilize the water power OF the Mis-
souri, for the use Of the Boston & Mon
tana smelter and the other industrial es-
Establishments that will line the banks of
the river. The dam and headgates will
be about 1,100 feet long and will require
the placing Of 100000 feet Of timber,
10000 feet of plank, IA tons of iron work
and bolts, $500 cubic yards of stone fill
ing in cribs, 3,40o yards of gate cha mber
masonry, 10 sets of head gates and two
sets Of waste gates. Part Of this work is
TO be finished by July and the remainder

ming, the eminent hydraulic engineer.
From 150 to $50 men will be employed

A CHICAGO HORROR.

Nearly y Score of Men Fearfully Burned
by an Explosion-several Killed.
CHICAGO, March 81. Nearly a score of
men were fearfully burned and bruised
and probably four killed outright by the
explosion of starch dust in the annex of
the big sugar refinery at the foot Of Tay-
lor street, The building was literally
blown to pieces. A large section of It
landed in the river, and the remainder is
lying in confused heaps for distance of
two blocks. Owing to the reticence of
the officers of the sugar refinery and ia-
norance of most of their employees, it is
nearly impossible to get anything like a
complete ist of the men who were at
work in the starch building, and nothing
like oorrsct estimate Of the number
probably killed can be made, -Four
bodies have been taken from the ruins,
The driving storm Of sleet and snow that
set in shortly after the explosion made 1t
nearly impossible for the hremen to con.
tinue their search for bodies.
TWELVE MEN MISSING.
Later reports show that at least twelve
men are missing. Those whose names
have been learned are as follows, and
they are supposed to be dead:
Albert Hess, Frank Wallish, Frank
Tieman, August Heman, Peter 6ohrader,
Mike Haner and Frank Graft.
