WAvERLY, Ia, Aug. 21.-(Special Tele-
gram.)-Fully 5000 people witnessed the
governors review at Camp Prime today and
it was a sight long to be remembered. The
superiority Of the militia of today over the
Iowa Guard of ten years ago can only be
appreciated by those who have seen both.
In an interview Governor Jackson stated
that he was very much pleased with the re-
view and that the camp which is in pro-
gress here and the one that was held at
Centerville last week are by far the best
ever held in the state.
The rifle competition of the Fourth regi-
ment came off yesterday, and as a result
Algona won both trophies, with Webster City
a close second. Company NJ of Cherokee
was third and company H of Sioux City
fourth.
The camp is healthful, although rain is
needed very badly, with but little prospects

Physicians,

prescribe Scott's Emulsion Of Cod-liver Oil and Hypophos- phites because they find their patients can tolerate 1t for a long time, as it does not upset the stomach nor derange the digestion like the plain oil.
 Scott's Emulsion is as much easier to digest than the plain oil as milk is easier to digest than butter. Besides, the fish fat taste is taken out of the oil, and it is almost palatable. The way sickly children, emaciated, anemlc and consumptive adults, gain flesh on Scott'S Emulsion is very remarkable.

And Work to Begin at Once on the
 New Plant
TO SUPPLY ELECTRICITY
For All the City Railroads and for Illuminating Purposes.
 A S2oo,OoO Plant.

The contracts have been let for the big electric plant on Powell avenue aud Nine- teeuth street. MT. Thomas Purvis, who built the Chalifoux building, was the suc- cessful bidder. The plans and spec factions were drawn by Stone & Webster of Boston and Chicago. The erection of tue plant will be under the supervision of MT. Charles F. Wallace of Boston.
 The building will cover about 15) feet square and will be two stories high, with steam Capacity of .590 horse power, con- sisting of five 509- hoIse- power Corliss en- zines. The electrical apparatus will be in keeping with the steam power. It is pro- posed to utilize the exhaust steam from the plant iu heating adjoining buildings, such as the Morris building, union passenger station, etc.
 The plant will furnish the electrical cur rent to small manufac urers and lncandes- cent lights for residences, and also electric lights for suburban places. The totil ex- penditure for the plant, including ma chinsry, will bs s200, 900. All ine electric railways vii! be operated from the plant and also the electric lights in the city. ft will provide sufficient capacity to furnish electricity to the dummy lines when they are converted into electric lines.
 The building will be of brick, stone and iron, and as near ti,e-proof as possible. The smoke stack will be of iron, 30 feet in diameter at the base and 150 feet high.
 The investment by Boston capitalists in this plant shows their faith in Birming- ham and it's future. If they expect Blr. mingham to remain stationary they prob- ably would not have made the investment, but they are convinced that it will grow to be large city, and then their investment will pay handsome return.
 To Mir. Robert Jemison is due the credit for the successful outcome of this erter- prise. He has been working on it for two years, and has made several trips to New York and Boston in it's interest. In 1893 he had gained the consent of these eastern capitalists to go in with himself and asso- ciates and build this plant, but the hnan- cial depression of that year caused them to decline. Their decision to make the iu- vestment now proves that they believe the financial clouds have been dispersed.
 Mir. Jemison's success in this enterprise adds another to his series of successes. He knows no such word as fail. He Is a vslu- able man to Birmingham. His desire to help every enterprise in the city is shown n his letting the contracts for the buiid- ing of the plant to home industries. The boilers will be made by Crellin & Nails, and the structural iron work by the Bir mingham Machine and Foundry company and the Hood Machinery company. Asso- ciated with MT. Jemison in this enterprise are such substantial citizens of B.rming- ham as Mir. T. T. Hillman, MT. George L. Morris, Col. J. F. 5. Jackson, MT Morris Adler and MT. w. J. Rushton.

False Statements and Misrepresenta-
 

t1ons.
 Corruption does not exist in politics alone. The time was when people were shocked to hear that such conditions pre- vail=d in politics, but worse than all else is the fact that this evil should be carried into the drug business and the sick be made to suffer in consequence thereof. For vari- ous reasons dealers allow themselves to be persuaded 10 stock up medicines of all sorts to be sold to the sick on the repre- sentstion that they are just the same as simmons Liver Regulator-a greater out rage has not been perpeirated upon the people. This has been the experience of many who have been duped-by these false statements. Take only The Old Friend, Simmo Liver Regulator, with the Red z on every package, and you'll get the medi- cine that did the old folks so much good in zone days. It has been kept up as their inheritaI c to the prese It generation.

QUIET IN HAWAII.

THE ANNEXATION MASS MEETING WAS A 1, FLAT FAILURE.
 z SAN FRANCISCO, April S.-[Correspon6- ence of the United Press per steamer Peru, Honolulu, March 31.1-The past eleven days have been uneventful. A contingent of thirty four rebel prisoners were shipped to Hilo on the 22d per the steamer Khan, attended by a large crowd of natives at the wharf, some of whom were waiting. The prisoners were in excellent spirits during the voyage of two nights. Some of the Pilo natives made a little demonstration over them on their arrival. Marshal Hitchcock, who was along, gave the prisoners some good advice and sent them to labor on the
