DOMESTIC IN BRIEF.

ThBERING on the third level OF the Pewa-
bic mine at Iron Mountain Mich, caught
fire last week, forcing the $50 meu employed
in the mine to the surface. The entrance
has been Theoretically sealed TO smother the
flames, and the amount of damage Is not at
present known.
The temperature was thirty.two degrees
below zero at ST.. Paul, Mimi, last Friday.
Advices from Burlington, Ia, of that date
state that a severe blizzard and cold wave
had struck Iowa. There Is no water there
for stock, and no probability OF getting any
with the ground frozen foot deep. One
man was frozen to death in Burlington last
Saturday, and teams are crossing the Mis-
sissippi on the ice at that point.
PHILIP ScHRIG and Frank Floyd, the two
men charged with robbing ths Bank OF Min
neapolis of $50, COO, left Southampton, Eng,
last Sunday i'll the custody OF United States
officers. The prisoners are said to be
anxious TO get back to Minneapolis, and
said before sailing that they would make
full confession when they got there. II Is
believed here that Scheig and Floyd have
already informed the United States officers
where the money which they are reported
to have stolen is concealed.
j. G. w. MORRISON of Springfield, ILL.,,
was stoned to death by d mob vi one hum

last week Thursday. He was accused OF
sons pleadings were not heard and he was
literally pounded to pulp by the stones
that were showered upon him. His body
presented a sickening sight when the mob
had completed its brutal work The face
and head were bleeding mass, none of the
features being recognizable while many Of
the bones of the body were broken.
KRIsTIAN KoRTGAARD, president OF the
state bank of Minneapolis, Mimi, is charged
with wrecking that institution and the
American Exchange Bank OF that city. The
wreck ID really worse than that OF the
Northwestern Guaranty Loan Company.
Kortgaard's methods were TO form c0mpa-
MES with capital Of $50 600 to 500 00O al
legged to be for the purchase OF real estate,
the development of mines, or some such
thing, and then turn about and borrow
money from the two hanks. In this way he
drained the funds OF the two institutions TO
the very dregs. The corporations borrowed
from the hank amounts ranging from 3d..
900 to $50 600, When the banks went down
the books OF all the companies disappeared.

The approaching winter offers many
dangers to those whose powers Of resist

Indoor life soon impoverishes the blood
and lowers the tone OF the nervous system.
Then a slight exposure will easily precipi-
tate an enfeebled sy stem into serious illness.
The aged and infirm must now look care
dnlly to their health. Badly fed nerves
must have more abundant nutrition; the
blood requires nourishment, Paine's celery
compound, the remedy that makes people
well, should now be used.
Paines celery compound gives new life
and energy to the system. 1t is food for the
brain, it strengthens the nerves. it makes
ttile weak strong.
Paine's celery compound for many years
has met the frank, outspoken approval of
