Deranged Digestion

is almost universally followed

Oil is the natural remedy for
decreased vitality, but to pre-

This way is SCOTS Emulsion

ARRESTED FOR FAST DRIVING.

One OF the oldest business men
in the city was before the recorder
this morning with a charge of reck-
less driving placed opposite his
name. The Judge was so surprised
at this arrest that he hardly be-
lieved the officer that made the
charge. The old gent pleaded guilty
and asked forthe lowest fine say
ing he had rather pay the extra
s. than to be late for he was going
to Woodward & Briggs to buy a
vehicle and wanted to get there be-
fore all the bargains were gone.
The Judge dismissed the case and
told the old man there was no use
to rush, for Woodward & Briggs
had vehicles enough to furnish
everybody and there was no danger
of them raising the prices as they
were the people that put them
down and would be sure to hold
them where they are. t % st

SEVERLST IN YEARS.
Chicago and the East Visited
by a Heavy Storm of Sleet
and Snow.
Wires Are Down and Scarcely
a Train Able to Move
on Time.
Crews and Passengers Of Three
Vessels Rescued With
Difficulty.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2S. Mixed rain and
snow began falling here in the after
noon, and the wet, clinging mixture
soon made itself apparent in the way
the wires to various points worked.
Wires to the East kept working badly
during the late afternoon, and at
o'clock the trouble had reached this
city and communication was had with
points to the West and North with
much difficulty. By 10 o'clock little
was moving, and soon after II the last
word was sent to the Northwest, the
snow having been heavy enough by
that time to shut off communication i'll
all directions The snow continued
steadily all night, not less than Is
inches having fallen by morning, and
not only was communication by wire
affected, but also transportation.
Scarcely train was able to get away
from the city on time, although all
tried to 20 SO.
The Snow Was so Heavy,
however, that delays were very evident
before the suburbs were reached. All
communication with the outside world
was confined to a single uDy5Bg Dy5rBigats tsaWyihe wiz
offices i'll both Chicago and Milwaukee.
Such storm has not been known for "a
long time, and business in the city was
almost entirely suspended.
The lives Of at least four score of men
were i'll great peril on board vessels
which We're blown aground in Lake
Michigan, off Glencoe. The vessels are:
Steamer j. Emory Owen, Captain

Passengers Snowbound.
A number of passengers on the
Calumet electric street railroad We're
snowbound in desolate portion of the
city, and some of them Were compelled
to remain all night in the cars. When
the cars were first stalled they carried
the usual number of passengers, but as
hours passed and no indications of
progress were given, the majority of the
passengers left the cars and continued
the remainder of the journey on foot.
Some, however, who lived a greater
distance than did the others, refused to
leave the cars, preferring to spend the
night III them to facing the storm.
Passengers Of the Seventy fifth street
and South Chicago avenue lines shared
the same fate.

BLINOING BLIZZARD.
Extraordinary Weather at Such an
Early Date.

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 2S.-The heavy
snow storm which has prevailed
throughout the Mississippi and Missouri
valleys the past 80 hours has Frustrated
telegraph wires in all directions from
here. The snow came after heavy
storm of rain and left thick coat of ice
over everything that was exposed.
From all points in Missouri the storm is
reported to be of unusual severity and
railroad traffic is sure to be seriously
impaired. Throughout Kansas the
storm has approached the proportions OF
a blizzard 1t is claimed, however,
that the storm will do winter wheat an
immense amount of good. A strong
wind from the north is drifting snow
badly. Caldwell, Kan, reports blind
ing snow storm and unusually cold
weather. Much suffering among the
poor settlers on the Cherokee strip is
predicted. Coffeyville, Kan, reports
the worst storm ever experienced in
Southern Kansas and so early in the

In Honor of whitman.

An attempt is being made in the
west to erect suitable monument to
the memory of Marcus Whitman. the
pioneer who rode 1000 miles in mid
winter during the administration of
President Tyler for the purpose of
securing to the United States the
possession of the region embracing
the present states of Oregon, Wash
lngton and Idaho. Whitman arous-
ed the government to sense of the
Importance OF this territory, and was
the means of undermining the plans
of the Hudson Bay company, which
was working to make the whole North
Pacific region part OF the British
possessions. In recognition to this
public service, and as a reminder of
the missionary work accomplished in
Oregon by Whitman and his associat-
es, college was founded at Walla
Walla bearing his name. This little
institution has managed to exist in
spite OF poverty, and it has done
educational work of considerable i'm
portance in limited sphere. Now it
is proposed to raise an endowment of
5000, 900 or more in order to enlarge
the work of Whitman college and to
make the institution credit to the
name it bears. DR.. ID. X. Pearsons of
Chicago has pledged $4,000 for this
purpose; the citizens Of Walla Walla
have subscribed an equal sum; another

from the descendants of the Whitman
family. which includes ex-Gov. Rus

minent New England people, it is

There is likeness between the
child's mission an d the flowers mis-

plants mission to a child? Here 1t
is: A little girl lay sick, as it seemed
unto death, in the dark room of mar
row court, where the sunlight rarely
entered through the panes, which
were covered with cobwebs Into this
place of sorrow and of the shadow OF
death Christian lady came to see
the child, and brought plant IN
flower to cheer her with its scent and
beauty. But The plant began to droop
for want of light and air, and SO he
window was washed and opened from
time to time, and then was seen the
need Of further cleanliness. The walls
and floors were secured; the father
came back from his work to mend the
broken furniture instead OF going for
strong drink, and began to save money
to buy better food for the little
daughter whom he dearly loved.
So the pale. sick child,
With light. and air. and strong nutritious food
Grew strong and healthy, and true happiness
Now reigned instead OF miserv, supreme.
And to their great surprise the father said:

Meerschaum Output.

Mr.. Cumberbatch, British consul
at Angoria, in his latest report, says
that rich deposits of meerschaum are
found 90 miles to the southeast OF
Eski Shehir, an important station OF
the Anato.ian Railway. The Belgian
consul at Constantinople, who recent
ly visited the place, states that 1t
would be difficult to determine the
exact area in which the meerschaum IS
to be found. Judging from the num-
ber of pits at considerable distance
from each other, it must be extensive.
The localities where most work IS
carried on are Septdji-Odjaghl and
Kemikdji- i-Objaghi. The meerschaum
is extracted in the same way as coal.
Pits from I25 to $50 ft. deep are dug,
and as soon as the vein is struck
horizontal galleries, sometimes OF con-
siderable length, are made, but more
than two galleries are seldom to be
found in one pit. The stone as ex-
tracted it is called cham tash,' or
rough block, and is soft enough to be
easily cut with a knife. The blocks
are purchased by dealers on the spot,
not by weight or by measurement, but
according to approximate quantity,
either per load of three sacks or per
carload, the price varying from 20 to
$50 per load, according to the quality.
The bulk of the meerschaum is sent
to Vienna, where it is worked, and
dispersed all over the world. Most OF
the finest specimens are sent direct to
Paris Certain American dealers have
visited Eski Shehir with the oblest OF
obtaining the raw article direct instead
of through Vienna, thereby saving the
biohest custom house duty payable on
the worked meerschaum. The
quantity annually exported is put-down
at 5000 70 10000 cases. The various
taxes levied by the Turkish govern
ment amount to about 81 per cent ad-
yalorem.- m.-Bradstreets.
