per is believed by the police to have at
last come to this city.

The woman was known about the
neighborhood as one of the half drunken
creatures who hang about the low re-
sorts Of Water street and the riverside.
She came to the hotel last night in com
pany with man who registered as
Knieloi and wife. The couple We're as

cry or unusual noise was heard. This
morning the att ndant raped on th(
door of the room occupied 0y the couple
There was no answer, and be raped
again, with no better, and finally broke
in the door.
A horrible sight met his gaze. On th
bed lay the woman in big pool 0
blood She had been dead for hours
Her abdomen had been fairly rippe'
open with dull, broken table knife tina
lay in the pool of blood. The viscer
had been cut, and from appearances,
part was missing. The woman's hea
was bandaged. A cloth had been tie
about her neck and face, but whethe
for any foul purpose or to hide any othe
traces of murder the attendant did n(
wait SO see.
No one has seen the man since b
went upstairs with the murdered woman
He had escaped under the cover of nigl
when the bloody deed was done.
On the woman's back, near the baS
of the spine, the mark of CROSS hs
been made with the knife. S-mil;
marks we're found on the bodies of tt
London victims of Jack the Ripper.

the United States have increased this
fund sufficiently to warrant the Union
in erecting building at cost of $780,

will be built consists of eighty acres, and
was donated to the printers A. A Nc.
Gooney and L F. Martin, of this city.
The structure will be 40 by $50 feet,
three stories high, with 80 foot tower
at each end. Red sandstone, quarried
in the mountains of this State, will be

Catarrh is an Inflammation Of the mu-
cous membrane. As the membrane lines
every cavity Of the body that has an out
let there may be as many different forms
of catarrh as there are such cavities.
The closed cavities are lined, not with
mucous membrane, but with one that
secretes a thinner fiuid-serum-for lubri-
eating purposes, which is readily absorbed
after doing its normal work. Still, the
serous membrane also may be infiamed,
and its secretion abnormally increased.
Thus we may have pericarditis, with
its water around the heart, from in
fammation of the membrane that lines the
heart bag, OF pericardium pleurisy, with
its fluid crowding against the lungs, and
sometimes causing their complete col
lapse, from Inflammation Of the MEM
brane that lines the chest; peritonitis, so
painful and dangerous, from inflammation
of the membrane that lines the cavity Of
the abdomen; synovitis, with its painful
and puffed out joints, from Inflammation
of their similar lining membrane.
A common cold - is an inflammation Of
the air passages. When it is confined
mainly to the nostrils, it is popularity
known as a cold in the head, but medically
as coryza.
When it is confined mainly to the
bronchial tubes, it is called bronchitis,
which, when it has gained permanent
hold, greatly resembles consumption,
and is often mistaken for it by the people.
Catarrh of the ears and catarrh of the
Eustachian tubes often cause deafness
Catarrh of the stomach loads the stomach
with tough phlegm and interferes witt
digestion. Catarrh of the gall bladder
obstructs the outflow of the bile, which il
absorbed into the circulation, and thu
gives rise to jaundice. Catarrh of thu
bladder is dangerous disease, from thu
difficulty of getting rid Of the mucus
Two forms of catarrh are due to pollen
one, in summer, known as "rose cold" o
@hay fever" the other, in autumn
known as "autumnal catarrh.
The word catarrh, as popularly used
means either nasal catarrh or bronchitis
Nasal catarrh is often helped by snuffinI
up, so as to carry it into the mouth,
weak solution Of salt and water, repeat
ing the operation several times day
Where the disease is very persistent, it
well, when possible, to try change Q
climate. In bronchitis the case shoul
be attended by physician.

The women Of India.

The age at which marriage may be
legally consummated in India is 10 years.
The physical, mental, and moral objec-
tions to marriage at such an early le-
quire no explanations; they are patent
to all. That a child is in no sense fit to
become a wife and motheD that her own
health often pays the penalty, and that
the race that springs from her is likely to
lose in physical and mental vigor, aro
facts which do not admit Of contradiction.
Marriage, however, will always take
place in India much earlier than in Euro
pean countries, and that it should be
postponed for two or three years is all
that the most ardent reforner can hopa
or expect at present. 1t is calculated thai
in India one woman in five is a widow:
of these a very large proportion must b.
women who, having been betrothed at
| any time between the cradle and 10 years
| of age, have become widows without ever
having been wives. To understand the
| full misery Of their condition one must
| realize that marriage is the very Alpha
and Omega Of an Indian woman's exist
ence, and that the whole bent and train
ing of her mind points to husband as
the end and object of life. He is, in fact,
her only raison d'etre; and when, there
fore, she either altogether misses the full
fillment Of her destiny, or loses her hus-
band early, she is, both in her own and
in public estimation, most unhappy
being. The shorn head, the plain clothes,
the absence of ornament, the abandon
ment of all luxury, are not gratuitous
cruelties they are but the symbols of an
overwhelming misfortune, and seem tc
be accepted as the natural expression oi
a hopeless grief. 1t is not plain to seC
how this sentiment with regard to widow
hood is to be modified by any reforms
that we can suggest. 1t is only by tn
education and elevation of women tina
any change can come over the feeling o
the people with regard to marriage, ant
it is only when public opinion ceases t
regard her as chattel, and begins t
recognize her as a helpmate, that
woman's condition, whether as wife 0
widow, can become more honorable an
more worthy of respect

John Planllinton was amillionaire, and
that Is as definite as his wealth can be
estimated, although a man in position to
know says it will exceed $40, ,000,0 900.
His interests were almost entirely in Mil
waukee.
Mr.. Plan5inton came to Milwaukee in
1874 at the age Of "a years, and the char
acteristics which made him famous as
business man and a citizen were brought
into action within fortnight after his
arrival A native Of Delaware, he re-
moved with his parents to Pittsburg at
the age Of Of 10, received scanty edu-
cation, and in 1874 came to the city Of
bricks before the utility Of the mud had
been discovered. When he reached the
village, a practical young butcher, he
found that the friend with whom he was
to have formed acopartnership had made
better arrangements with another, and
made the excuse that young Plankintons
capital was inadequate to the enterprise
designed. Angry at the betrayal Of con-
fidence, a business failing which he never
forgave in any one during his long ca
roer afterward, he resolved 10 start in
opposition. Possessing $495, he rented a
house to shelter his wife and child at ~
per month, bought a COW for 50 and
turned her out to pasture and fatten on
the open wild land where his palatial
house now stands on Grand avenue, while
he rented land and proceeded to erect q
butcher shop, which cost him $1OS.
Fourteen days after his arrival he was
retailing his meats.
Industrious, honest, economical, he be-
came the leading butcher of the town,
and his business the first year averaged
nearly 81 900 per month. His increasing
business demanded new quarters, and he
moved, but it was popularity of his
life to retain the title to all realty which
he had once occupied, and at the time Of
his death the land upon which he first
found home in Milwaukee was in his
name. In 1850 he entered into partner
ship with Frederick Layton, and the new
.rm began the packing business, which,
a5 the time of dissolution in 1881, had
reached proportions equal to any house
west Of Cincinnati. For three years Mr..
Plankinton continued alone, and in 1854
united with P. d. Armour, under the
firm name of Plankinton g. Armour
aThe business was extended to cover the
low famous establishments of Chicago
New York, Kansas City, and elsewhere

1t is probable that the idea of a vehicle
with wheels, to he drawn by animals,
must have occurred to men soon after the
first attempts in this direction were very
rude In this country the prevalent mode
of travelling for the first two centuries
was on horseback, the roads preventing
any very extensive use of wheeled vehi-
cles but as the country has increased in
wealth, and the highways, city and town
streets have improved, the demand for
public and private carriages has grown to
be very large. A writer in the Detroit
Free Press gives the origin of the names
of some of the most common vehicles
now in use.
The popular Hanson derives its distin-
gushing title from certain Mr.. Hanson.
The Brougham, which was first used by
the famous Lord Brougham, took its ti,lp
from that nobleman.
Landau, city in Germany, was the
locality in which was first made the
style OF vehicle bearing that name.
Hacks originally were termed hackney
coaches, because they were drawn By
hackney--a name applied to easy going
horses.
The Gig was given that name from is
peculiar jumping and rocking motion,
the word being taken from the French
gigue, signifying the jig or a lively
dance.
The term Coach is derived from the
French coche, a diminutive form of the
Latin conchula, shell, in which form
the body Of such conveyances was
originally fashioned.
Coupe is French in origin, being de
rived from the verb cooper (coopay) tC
cut. This was considered an appropriate
designation because it greatly resembleC
a coach with the front part cut Off.
Seldom, il ever, is the full term Omni
bus applied to those numbering vehicles
With the characteristic brevity of Eng
lish speaking races the title has beer
changed to Bus. These were first seer
in Paris in 1927, the original name being
nothing more than the Latin word signi
flying fer all
Cab is an abbreviation of the Italian
capriola, which is changed TO Gabrielle
(cabriolay) in French. Both words havl
a common -cobriole-signify
ing a goats leap. The exact reason fo
giving it this strange appellation is un
known.

The parent OF insomnia Or wakefulness is in
nine cases out Of ten a dyspeptlc stomach. Good
digestion gives sound sleep, indigestion Inter
feres with it. The brain and stomach sympa-
thizes. One Of the prominent symptoms OF a
weak state of the gastric organs is disturbance
OF the great nerve entrepot, the brain. lnyigor-
ate the stomach, and restore equilibrium to the
great centre. A most reliable medicine for the
purpose is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which is
far preferable to mineral sedatives and power
ful narcotics which, though they may for a time
exert a sopornc influence upon the brair, soon
cease to act, and invariably iniure the tone Of
the stomach. The Bitters, on the contrary, re-
store activity to the operations of that all i'm
portant organ, and their benehcent influence is
reflected in sound sleep and tranquil state Of
nervous system. wholesome impetus is like
