A Plan to Combine the Ordinary Type
writer and the Wire,

DR. J. r. Etter Of Charlottesville,
Indiana, has perfected device in tele-
graphy that will revolutionize the en-
tire system OF sending aud receiving
messages. His plan is to use a common
typewriter, from which a person can
send a message in the same manner
that writing is at present done on
paper with typewriter Also mes
sages can be taken of the single wire
at as many offices as is desirable, aud
are written down in letters on paper
exactly like the letters and characters
made with the typewriter used at the
sending Office. Also, the paper at each
Office upon which the message is print
ed moves up and backwards when a line
is full OF words at the will of the send
ing operator, who manipulates the
paper while sending the message in ex-
actly the same manner that the operator
OF a typewriter does Application has
been made for patents, and a prominent
wealthy manufacturer Of an Ohio city
will put the invention upon the market.

ROME, April 81. Two hundred and
sixty-fve tons Of powder exploded at
Pozze Pantaleo on the 23rd inst, caus-
ing serious loss OF life and damage to
property, and created great alarm at
the Vatican The city was shaken to
its foundations, spreading terror and
dismay on all sides.
Tho people rushed from their homes
into the streets, houses rocked, pictures
fell from the walls, thousands OF panes
Of glass we're broken everywhere, crock
cry was shattered, furniture was over
turned, chimneys crashed down upon
the roofs and in some Instances toppled
over into tho streets below. The Gu
pola Of the house Of parliament, shook
violently and then collapsed with a
crash, which added still further to the
/ feeling Of horror which had spread
through Rome.

with bricks stones and splinters and
other debris hurled there by the force

It Pays to Get the Best .

Some people think economy means
buying cheap things-articles that
cost the least money OF any of their
kind. True economy is getting the
best for the amount of money you
have to spend. A really servieeable,
well-made article, even at a good
price, is worth a household of shoddy
manufactures, made only to sell.
There is no greater fallacy than to
suppose that Except in rare instan-
ces) you can get a dollars worth of
anything for less than a dollar.
Tradesmen do not get rich by giving
their goods away, and it is safe to
say that a man is in his business
for the profits and not for amuse-
ment. If you travel, it is economy
of money, of time, of comfort, to buy
your ticket over such line as "The
Burlington" where speed, safety
and equipment are all up to the very
highest standard and the utmost
care taken to keep them so. For
tickets, rates, maps, etc., call on
your local ticket agent, or write to

There is more Catarrh in this Sec
ton of the country than all other
Diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incur
able. Science has proven Cattarh to
be a constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is
