your ears at times?
Does your nose stop up at times, one side or
the other? Does it discharge thin, watery
substance almost constantly?
When you go to bed at night have you diff
Guilty in going to sleep? After you are asleep
do you have unpleasant dreams? On awaken
ing do you feel refreshed?
In the morning do you have difficulty in
clearing your throat? Does your throat feel
dry and parched? Do you have sense of full
ness in your throat?
have cough that prevents your going to sleep
at night? Do you have cough that causes
you to wake up at night and thus disturb your
repose?

were about to faint, and feel as though you
must grasp something for support? Does your
vision become disturbed and everything grow
dark before your eyes at such times?

THE NEW TREATMENT.
A cordial invitation is extended by Drs
Copeland, Neal and VIM to all their friends
and patients old as well as new, to call and
test the new treatment. 1t has passed the stage
of experiment and has been demonstrated a
| complete success. particularly in those cases
which have withstood the other and older
methods of treatment They have added
| to their already complete Offices the new appli-
ances, and are ready to treat all those more
stubborn cases which in the past have been
thought incurable. 1t is to their financial in
terest, as well their medical fame, to cure,
for one cured patient is worth many dollars of
advertising. They have the best treatment and
the new and direct means of using it,

head.
Then l kept talking about 1t and told
her we could buy icecream soda and choco-

She didn't give in bit and she didn't

TENNESSEE STATE NEWS.
Another Railroad Tor Memphis.

Memphis, Sept. PA very important
conference was held in Memphis today
between holders Of lands III SunEower
county, Miss, and representatives of C.
III. Pond, who, together with as sociates,
purpose building railroad from More
head, station on the Southern Rail-
road, in Sunfower county, Miss, to
Memphis. The object Of the conference
is to secure, If possible, the right of
way through about 10000 acres OF land
In Sunfio.er county, which are owned
BY Memphis parties.
The construction of this new road,
which now seems assured, means much
to this city, for it is quite certain that
1t will be extended south soon, and be-
ing an entirely Independent line, will
afford desirable competition. The rad
which Mr.. Pond and his-associates pGr-
pose building will lie about 100 miles in
length, and will traverse section of
Mississippi which is unsurpassed in
prOductiveness. 1t is but step in the
direction toward making Mississippi q
net work of railways. A State so rich
must attract the investment of capital
in railway construction. The agricul-
tural possibilities CT Indiana, Illinois
and Ohio caused the building of roads
there in great number, and the same
will occur in the South wherever agri-
culture is most productive.
1t has been suggested that Mr.. Pond
is proceeding with this new project in
the interest of the Sou thern Railway.
Close traffic arrangements with the
Southern at Morehead would give Mem
phis another direct line to the South
east

STORY or THE WORK OF LAID SHARKS.
The Vessels Cargo and The Passengers
Baggage Stolen and Carried to the
Woods by Gangs of Men Who
Fought OFF the Sailors.

NEW YORK, Sept. 3O.-The Herald's
special from Montreal says: The ex.
citement over the wreck and now
conceded complete loss of the Dominion
lines steamer AaRiPssa. was height
ened Sunday night by the receipt Of
news of the looting of the vessel by
the pirates of the Labrador coast.
The arrival of the steamship Aus
trian brought the crew of the Mari
posa, and they tell a graphic tale
After the wrecked passengers were
landed and safely taken to shelter a
mile away the crew and officers COM
menced the task of landing the bag
and sheep. The latter swan to shore,
reaching it at points miles distant.
The pirates were watching their
chance. and the animals were taken
quickly to hiding places, but this did
not satisfy the looters. They hast
ened to the place where piles upon
piles of baggage and cargo lay in
charge of body of seamen.
Armed with sticks and stones, the
pirates soon drove the men from their
charge after a short, sharp fight. and
carried it triumphantly few miles in
to the woods of the Labrador coast.
They numbered scores, and the sailors
were unable to foil ow them. There is
no doubt that they were the same men
that completely piilaged the steamship
Mexico few months ago and then set
fire to the vessel.

LIVES CRUSHED OUT
BY a Premature Explosion IN Mis-
souri, Quarry.
FIVE MEN AND A BOY WE'RE KILLED
And Three Others Seriously Injured
The Accident Caus ID by the Touch
ing Of, Inadvertently, of the
Wrong Blast

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 30.-A special to
the World from Independence, Mo-,
says: Six persons were killed by pre-.
mature explosion in a rock quarry near
this place Sunday afternoon.
The explosion occurred in a quarry :
miles northeast of independence at {
o'clock Sunday night. and five men
and boy lost their lives. The dead
are:
Miles McTiernan, contractor.
Thomas Ferguson, IA years old, son
of John Ferguson. a farmer.
Dan Rogers.
Pat Welsh.
Charles Truett.
Unknown Italian.
All the dead except the boy are OF
Kansas City.
In addition to these John Ferguson.
father of the boy killed, and Joe
Fleming and an unknown Italian
were seriously injured by flying rock,
but it is thought that all of these will
recover.
Two blasts were set just before
quitting time Sunday night. one on
top of large ledge of rocks, the other
much higher and further up the side
of the hill. They were to be touched
off with wires from an electric battery.
The men took refuge under the
ledge of rocks, Immediately beneath
the first blast, intending to
touch off the one higher up. By mis-
take the blast over the ledge was fired
first. The explosion tore loose the
whole ledge of rock, and the immense
mass fell forward upon the men. AL
the bodies were recovered during the
night, except those of McTiernan and
Truett, which are still beneath the
mass McTiernan is at the head of the
Kansas City Construction Co., the lead
ing firm of its kind in the city.

SpanIards Said to Have Invaded United
States Territory Searching for Filibus-
ters.
KEY WEST, Fla, Sept. SO.-Great
excitement and indignation has been
occasioned here by a report that ma
rines from the Spanish cruiser Conde
de Venadito have been landed on the
Florida keys, north of here, to search
for flibusters- The Conde de Venadito
has been cruising these wa
ters for some time, looking for
filibusters. It is the gener-
al opinion that filibusters have
arms and supplies secreted on the
keys north of this city and the Span
ish cruiser has evidently been trying
to find them. Fishermen who came in
marines have been making n diligent
search.
The fishermen say the Conde de
Venadito had landed searching parties
on almost every key where it would
be possible for flibusters to rem
devious. This is considered an out
rage here and gross insult to Flori-
da and the United States.
The keys belong to Florida, and if
Spain has a right to land searching
parties on the keys it also has right
to land marines on the mainland. The
insult is considered to be as outrageous
as if the COnde de Venadito had landed
party to search the homes of citizens
of Key West. The state department
at Washington will be asked to inves-
tigate and demand an apology from
Spain for this act. So much indigna-
tion has been aroused here by the re-
port that it is feared the Spanish con-
sui will be openly insulted.

IMMINENT DANGER
OF N Clash Between French and German
In BOgOta, Colombia.

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.-A special ca
blegram to the Herald from Panama,
Colon bia, via Galveston, Tex, says:
There is imminent danger of a clash
between French and German residents
in Bogota, the Herald's correspondent
there telegraphs, owing to the eele-
bration by the latter of the victory of
Sedan. The principal feature of the
day was a German procession. The
French in Bogota organized and armed
themselves and prepared to fire upon
the Germans as they passed certain
point. The police were informed in
time to prevent bloodshed, and the
Germans marched safely through the
city under a strong escort.
