NELSON LOWERS HIS RECORD.

Fast Work Of the Great Trotter on the
 Track at Grand Rapids-The Horse
 in the Pink of fCondition-TenT Thou-
 sand People Present.
 GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Sept. 19.-In the presence of 10000 people at the West Michigan fair to-day Nelson lowered his record to 2:10 on the second attempt. He was in the pink of condition, and the new track, just completed on the plan of the Cleveland track, was at it's best and the fastest ever trotted on. It is four feet four inches over a mile. The first quarter of the first heat was made in 324; the second quarter in 314; and the three-quarter pole was reached in 1:30 at a 2:09b gait. At this point the runner crowded the trotter into the fence, where he broke, finishing in 2;14 flat. Nelson, the owner, stated that his horse would make second trial in thirty minutes, and the crowd applauded. In forty-6ve minutes the stallion appeared and the running mate changed. Without scoring the horses got away and the t1ot- ter kept up his unprecedented pace to the finish without a skip, each quarter being trotted in 324, the mile in 2:10 flat. The exhibition closed amid a scene of wild enthusiasm. The grand stand emptied into the quarter stretch and track and surrounded the judges stand. Starting Judge Leathers then presented MT. Nelson with fine sil- yer water set on behalf of the society. The timers caught the time in 2:10, the judges from their positions all caught it 209a, and dozen watches in the paddock caught it in 2:O9t. Nelson caught the time at

THE SPANISH FLOODS.

Twelve Hundred Victims Buried
 Three Feet of Mud in the Streets
 of Gonsuegra-Heroic Deeds of Om-
 cers.
 MADRID, Sept. 1S.-The bodies of'twelve hundred victims of the flood at Consuegra have been buried. The town wears most desolate aspect. The streets are covered with a. deposit yard deep of stinking mud, which probably still contains many corpses.
 Hundreds of Franciscan priests have displayed heroic devotion in recovering and interring bodies, which are now badly decomposed owing to the extreme heat. The superintendent of the military works gallantly saved the life of sixty persons by means of a hastily constructed raft. Al though badly injured he did not finch in his efforts to save his fellow-beings. He lost the whole of his own property and the savings of many years Notwithstanding his misfortune he is now building wood en bridge across the river to restore con- munication.
 Other similar heroic deeds are reported. ] A chaplain plunged repeatedly into the | flood, at the danger of his own life. to res cue women and children. The official report says 53O buildings in Consuegra have vanished from their sites while 150 are in precarious condition and need to be demolished. The lines of forty eight streets of the town have been com l pletely obliterated.

King of Medicines
!ScroftiLotls Huntor Cure
 Almost MfrdcuIous.D


 "whsn was 14 years of age had severe attack Of rheumatism, and after recovered had to go on crutches. A year later, scrofula, in the form of white swellings, appeared on various parts of my body, and for II years was an invalid, being confined to my bed years. In that time ten or eleven sores ap- pearcd and broke, causing me great pain and suffering. I feared never should get we'll.
 Early in 1886 went to Chicago to visit sister, but was confined to my bed most of the time I was there. In July I read a book, "A Day with a Circus,' in which were statements of cures by Hoods Sarsaparilla. I was so i'm pressed with the success of this medicine that I decided to try it. To my great qualification the sores soon decreased, and began to feel better and in short time I was up and out of doors. Icontinued to take Hoods Sar- saparilla for about year, whc !, having used six bottles, had become so fully released from the disease that went to work for the Flint 6 Walling Mfg.

I am now 27 years of age and can walk as well as any one, except that one limb is a little shorter than the other, owing to the loss of bone and the sores formerly on my right leg.

WORTH MILLIONS EVERY DAY.
Effect of the Hot Weather on Corn Grain Placed Beyond the Possible fty of Characterization Of Trade Rusineas FafIures

Effect of the Hot Weather on Corn
 Grain Placed Beyond the Possibil.
 fty of Characterization Of Trade
 Business Failures.
 NEW YORK, Sept. 1s.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says: The hot weather at the west is worth to the country many millions every day. Each clear and cloudless day places many mill ions of bushels of corn beyond the possi- bility of harm from frost, and great part of the anticipated crop is also safe. The large crops mean that the farmers will be enabled to purchase more freely of the products of other industries and will pay this fall vast amount of indebtedness.
 At Chicago some decrease in receipts of lard, butter and wool compared with last year is reported for the week, but increase in flour, barley, cured meats, cheese, hides, gain of quarter in oats, while receipts of rye and wheat are six times those of last year. At Minneapolis trade is active in lumber and four, shipments of flour being more than double those of last year. At St. Paul trade greatly exceeds eIpecta- tions, and at Omaha is good, though money is close. At Milwaukee it is observed that the weather has greatly improved the prospects as to corn. At St. Louis the country banks are not drawing as heavily for northern crops, but money is going south for cotton, and at Kansas City trade is satisfactory and money easier.
 It is surprising fact that notwithstand- ing the output of pig iron is almost equal to the largest ever known, the price grows more steady and stiff, and decidedly bet ter tone is observed in all the important markets. This has been noticed for a month or more as a sure indication of very large and healthy consumption of iron.
 The business failures occurring through out the country during the past seven days as reported to R.G. Dun & Go. and E. Rus sell 6 Co. of the mercantile agency num- Der for the United States 210 and for Can ada 29, or total of 239 as compared with a total of 214 last week and 217 the week previous to the last. For the correspond ing week of last year the figures were 190, 164 in the United States and 26 in Canada.
