IRON MOUNTAIN (Mich.), July 49,
The nine men imprisoned by the cave-ln
in the Pewabric mine have not yet been
reached. The cave-in took place yester-
day afternoon and it was confidently ex-
pected that the men would be rescued or
their bodies recovered early this morn

more difficult than was foreseen and has
made but slow progress.
The men worked steadily all night to
rescue their comrades, ana the shifts
were frequently changed 80 that the best
work might be done. The timbers are so
badly broken and twisted that they
seemed to make, with the fallen rock, an
almost impenetrable barrier.
In many places il Was found necessary
to loosen the material by blasting, and
the blasts bring down more rock and so
retard the work. Moreover while the
rescuerS are working like heroes, they
are obliged to use the utmost caution, as
cave may come at any time and cause
them TO share the fate OF their comrades.
From the rate at which they are ROW
progressing it will take at least twenty

which are now all polled. Whatever
prospective comfort the Liberals draw

Scotch and Welsh eleclorais must needs
be chastened by defeats and equalized by
the successes heretofore recorded in those
quarters.

sumption. The examining physician
even showed her the sunken place in her
breast where the cavity in her lung was
supposed to exist. She went home to
her family, broken. disheartened wom-
an with death staring her in the face.
Ihat was the beginning of the story, the

The first symptoms of consumption
came in the form of terrible sweats,
night and day. From April until
september L was constantly cold and
kept wrapped up in blankets through

ed 1t was when the clouds were the
udIhSst mat the first CLINT of sunshine

HVeS around at 1874 Clementine ST., said
10 me one day, Mrs. Bowen did you ever
Try Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
Feop!e. l had never heard of the medi-
cine, but in my condition could not turn
d Gear ear to anything that offered re-
het: 1t was after considerable thought
ana investigation that 1 concluded to
discontinue all other medicine in
Guiding cod liver oil, and depend
entirely upon Pink Pills. I began to
take the pills, at first with but little en-
enlargement. The first sign of improve
ment was warmth and tingling SEN
satlon in my limbs. Finally the cough
disappeared, my chest lost it's soreness
ana began to gain flesh until was
hIteen pounds heavier. All this I owe
TO DIR. Williams Pink Pills and cannot
praise them too highly"
Mrs. Bowen is kindly faced lady of
middle age, church member, we'll
known and highly esteemed. She looks
To-Day well and strong and it seems al
most impossible that she was ever given
up by eminent physicians as an in
durable consumptive. Yet such is the
case beyond all dispute.
Dr.. Williams Pink Pills contain all
the elements necessary to give new life
and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves. They are for sale by
all druggists, or may be had by mail
from Dr. Williams Med. Co., Schenec-
tady. n. Y, for soc. per box. or six
