In New York City, for five COM

Epidemics of Cholera, Yellow Fever
and other diseases of similar character,
so terrible in their results, occasion wide

full consideration for their prevention
and cure, while consumption receives
scarcely thought, yet the number of
their victims sinks into insignihcance
when compared with those of consump-
ton. Comparatively few people know
what to do for their loved ones when they
see them gradually lose strength, lose
color, manifest feeble vitality and e1na-
citation, or develop cough, with difficult
breathing, or hemorrhage. Cod liver oil
was for long time given in all such
cases, but the poor success attending its
use coupled with its nauseating taste has
led many practitioners, as well as the
public at large, to place their main re-
lance in DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. 1t deserves early attention
and will prove efectual not in every case
but in large percentage of cases, and
we believe that fully oS per cent. of all
cases of consumption can, if taken in the
early stages of the disease, be cured with

ask people to believe until they have in

perfect contradiction in itself In law

Of the worst of errors, though some of
the rules of law are so finely shaded

demarcation. The dean of the univer-

a paradox. A bright lad promptly
answered 1.-THE 500 Line" 1t is in all
its appointments luxurious, yet cheap,

unanimous verdict was that the 500

Everybody's Lips.

Nine days ago Kinks Eos was I'M
known to the people of st. Paul. To-
day it is tha most talked of prepara-
ton in the city. The retail grocery
trade are astonished at the unparal-
leled demand for Kinks Eos. Never
in the history of the grocery trade
of st. Paul has anything been known
like it. Hardly a dealer is able to keep
his supply up to the demand
Said one lady: 81 have driven ten
miles today to procure a package of
your preparation. 1 have hsard SO
much about it, one of my friends hay
ing bought a package nearly a week
ago, and she told me that it was the
most wonderful preparation she had
ever heard of. 1t only took her half the
usual time to do her washing, and
she had not used a particle of soap.
and her clothes were whittier and in
every way better washed than they
had ever been before
Is it any wonder this lady was so
anxious to have a package of this
magic preparation?
Read what Mr.. L. c. Johnson, pro-
prietor of st. Anthony Hill Laundry, III

llhoi ouSHly testing hlrk s Eos:

Jas. S. Kirk & Co., Chicago-Gen-

Some of the pieces were hard and yell
low, but after being washed in water
prepared with your wonderful prepara-
ton they came out as soft and as nice
as new.
We have experimental with almost
everything in the market today, but
none of the so-called washing powders
do what Eos actually does. We shall
continue to use it and will be glad to
recommend it to every one. 1t does the
washing without using any soap what

Whisky Trust Property Bid in for
the Reorganixers.
CHICAGO, Aug. IA. : Under au-
thority of Federal Judge Showalter
Gen. John McNulta, receiver of the
Distilhng and Cattle Feeding COM
pany, sold the property of that cor
poration today to the reorganization
committee for $9,S00,000. Gen. Nc
Militia was accompanied by United
States Marshal Arnold and half
dozen deputies and Levy Mayer, at
torney for the reorganization COM
mittee; Attorney Allen and S. w.
Rice, president of the Distilling and
Cattle Feeding company. They
found a crowd of newspaper men,
lawyers and Stenographers already
assembled on the steps Of the fed
eral building, where the sale was
made in the open air. The prelimi-
narieS of the sale were begun by
the reading of the advertisement
containing the judicial decree or
dering the sale. The advertisement
was very lengthy, and its reading
occupied nearly half an hour. The
only bid entered was that of the
reorganization committee. Accord
ing to the order of the court, Gen.
McNulta took stand on the steps
of the Clark street entrance to the
court house. A little group of attor-
neys and trust stockholders sur
rounded the receiver and a small
crowd of people gathered, curious
to ~
erty. There had been rumors of q
possible protest, but the monotonous
reading of the court decree proceed
ed without interruption.
At the conclusion of the reading of
the court order Gen. McNulta an
nounced that he was ready for bids
for the seventeen distilleries COM
prising the property of the Distilling
and Cattle Feeding company. Levy
Mayer stopper forward and, in the
name of the reorganization commit
tee, bid S9,SO0,OO0 The short and
stout receiver climbed a step or two
higher, and, elevating his voice, pro-
ceeded to fulfill the duties of a pro-
fessional auctioneer. The round
faced little general strained his
voice to its utmost as he called out:
Il am bid S9,S00,00 for the property
of the Distilling and Cattle Feeding
company; $9,S0O,0OO Do I hear any
more bids? This is a public sale,
and any one is permitted to bid for
the plants
There was pause, but no one
seemed to want the plants more than
the reorganization committee, and
no other bids We're made.
Il hear no more bids" said Gen.
McNulta; then down she goes, So
100000 once; $9,S0O,OOO twice; $780,
900 three times and sold" And the
property of the great trust, cap
italized at $35, 100000 changed hands

MAY MEAN CHEAP COAL.
Cut in Freight Rates Likely to
Become General.

Become General.
Will the people of the Northwest en-
joy continuance of low prices of
coal, was decidedly interesting ques-
ton yesterday, when it became known
that rates of freight on coal, out of
Milwaukee westward, had taken quite
a tumble. The cut to Fox river points
announced yesterday amounts to 80
cents per ton. The roads making the
cut have openly charged the St Paul
lines with cutting rates from North
west points. This matter was neither
denied nor confirmed by local freight
men, who smiled the usual and signifi-
cant smile so customary with their
class when something unusual is in the
wind. If the coal rate fight becomes
general coal prices may take another
turn downward, and a grateful public
will not be slow to take advantage of
the Situation. incidentally it may be
mentioned that the supply on hand
exceeds the possible demand for the
season, and a norman price ought to
be established at an early day still
lower than now charged in local mar
kets. O.
