Baxter News: AS an evidence
of the unusual severity of the wind

the country in an open rig j. c..
Naylor had his ears burned into a
blister. This is pretty tough
statement about a pretty tough
man, but Naylor swears it's so.
4 4 Information comes from
the faith cure" district a few
miles west of this city that about
six weeks ago Mrs. Chas. Wahl
gave birth to a girl baby and it is
said she persisted in her belief to
the extent Of refusing to have pro-
fessional medical assistance at the
time, being pulled through ostens-
IDLY by the prayers of a few OF the
faith cure gang. For about two
weeks prior to last Tuesday the
new born babe had been danger
ously sick and without medical at
tention. The prayers of the faith
cure brutes were not strong enough
to effect a cure and the little one
died and was relieved of its agony
about 2 o'clock Tuesday. 1t will
be remembered that Ell. Wahl, a
brother Of Charles, lost a babe last
winter under similar circum.
stances.

VANISHED RIVER TOWNS.

1t is the fashion to talk about the
decadence of the steamboat business
on the Mississippi. These degener-
ate days, when the business is con-
fined to few RATS of logs or INN
Der, a short-line packet or two, and
one boat a week either way between
st. Louis and St. Paul, give occasion
for plenty of invidious comparisons
with the old days of palatial steam
ers and lows of five big barges OF
freight, besides the loads on the
boats themselves, Of full cabin lists
and fast time, Of swell passengers
and big profits.
But the decay Of the river traffic is
not confined to the losses of the
boats and the decrease in their num-
Der and tonnage. On shore all
along the river are evidences that
these days are different from those
when the steamboatman was the
monarch of all men. They are found
with melancholy frequency in the
dead and dying towns along the riv-
er, not to mention those other places
that were once prominent shipping
points, of which hardly memory
now remains.
There are dozens of such places.
They were built up by the steam
boat traffic in times when railroads
were deemed nothing more than re.
mote possibilities. They grew and
prospered. They fed the steamers
and the steamers fostered them. In
land towns had but small chance be-
side them, and were looked upon
with contempt as places far in the
backwoods, hopelessly remote from
the channels of commerce and com
munication, and forever doomed to
small things Davenport Demo

WAsmISo1oN. Nov. 2i.-The sessions
az the full Democratic membership of
the ways and means committee were
suspe ended to-day in order TO give sew
eral of the sub-committecs opportun-
ity To revise some of the schedules
which had been ordered by the main
committee to 6e altered.
II has been definitely decided by
tho full committee that the Income
tax plan shall be adopted as = part of
the new revenue system. and the de-
tails of the plan are To be perfected
by Messrs McMillin, Bryan and Mont
gomcry
The changes in the internal revenue
schedule contemplate an increase OF
ten cents per gallon on the whisky tax
and some slight notifications of the
tobacco taV. Several hundred pcti-
tions inundated the committee from
tobacco manufacturers Of the United
States, asking that the Mckinley
tariff import duty OF 50 per pound on
leaf tobocco suitable for wrappers be
revealed and duty OF thirty fvC
cents per pound be imposed on all Leaf
tobacco.
1t appears To- be the intention of the
committee To reduce the duty from 81
To about 81 per pound.
