NOT FOUND YET
Louis Mowry's Whereabouts Are Still a
Deep Mystery.


According to the latest dispatches
no trace has been found of Louis Now
ry, who disappeared from Chicago
Oct. 4. Reference to his memorandum
shows that just previous 20 the date Of
his last disappearance he was suffering
unusually from headache and general
illness. Notwithstanding this fact he
attended his classes up to the last day
of his presence at Rush Medical col
lege, where he was student. His
family have all been notified and are,
except the father. now in Chicago in
search of some trace of the missing
man. His brother George, assisted
by the Chicago police, has visited
nearly all the hospitals and morgues of
the city. but with no results Kenosha
will be searched with the possibility Of
his having wandered off with the pur-
pose of going home. The doctors,
from the symptoms they have been able
to gather from it as their opinion that
Louis was suffering from delirious ty-
phoid. If so he probably wandered
about the city aimlessly until picked
up and will be very likely found in
some hospital

STOP AND CONSIDER.
A Correspondent Remarks Pertinently on
Halloween

Dear Boys of s.; you who pro-
pose to engage in the Halloween frol-
les near at hand: Could you only be
placed ahead in point of time till the
day when your hair is threaded with
gray, and your active limbs stiff with
rheumatism, you would realize how
little fun there is IN such pranks as
misplaclng and injuring machinery,
and making useless trouble for older
men who have incurred your malice or
displeasure.
If you could only know how you will
regret such unmanly capers in few
years you would call halt at once.
If you could only feel the shame that
you surely will feel when you come to
mingle with others more honorable, and
see that you have forfeited the right to
be their equal IN honor, you surely
would call halt.
Suppose your father or Mr.. -,
whom you greatly esteem, should turn
out on, Halloween and steal your
clothes, take off carriage wheels, spoil
your base ball rigs, or injure your
"bikes," because Halloween is pecu-
liar to the antics of hoodlums? Would
you think it funny?
Just wish you would stop and think
farther than about what you consider
the fun of il. You may make some
man angry. you surely will make those
whom you visit much trouble, and in
some instances less. Is it your de-
sire to annoy your neighbors rather
than to oblige them? Is it your
ambition to spend your wit and
nights making hay effigies and de-
vising tricks to disoblige others
rather than in endeavoring to make
of yourselves men that will be a
credit to your homes and source of
honest pride to your parents?
Time is sweeping you along in spite
OF yourselves to that period when you
shall stand where your elders now do.
Do You expect to be upright, law
abiding citizens or anarchists?
Whose character do you admire
most, Lincoln's or Herr MOst's? Which
would you rather emulate?
Do you imagine Gladstone ever
wasted any muscle carrying wagon
wheels up a ladder and putting a
wagon together on the roof of ma
chine shop or barn?
A long-legged chap and a short
puffy, low headed one were seen not two
years ago tugging away at horse
block to misplace it because it was
Halloween and they wanted some fun.
They presented very ridiculous ap-
pearance, much as if Abraham Lincoln
and Grover Cleveland we're running off
with fishing pole.
1t seemed as if they had great deal
of hard work for very little poor fun.
These things will be remembered to
your discredit in the coming years by
the very boys who are now your COM
panions. Consider.

THE TROUBLE MULTIPLIEs.
The M. r. g. K. Road sued for Damages to
Property by Farmer

The Milwaukee, Racine * Kenosha
Electric Street Railway company is ex-
periencing all kinds of trouble and
litigation is piled on thick and fast. At
Milwaukee yesterday Judge johnson
ordered the appointment of three COM
missioners to assess damages of Joseph
Ruan, farmer residing in the town OF
Oak Creek, by reason of the Milwau-
kee, Racine & Kenosha Electric rail-
way lines running past his premises
on the Chicago road.
The action is an important one, for
it may lead to actions for damages by
every farmer between Milwaukee and
Racine, whose property the electric
line passes. The supreme court in its
recent decision in the injunction suits
brought by the Chicago & Northwest
ern Railway company, decided that the
operation of the line as commercial
road along the highway, was an addi-
tional burden upon the adjoining lands,
which, in effect, means that the COM
pany may be required to pay damages
for their right-of- Mr.. Ruan sets
forth in his petition that ingress and
egress from his lands is made danger
Gus, and that the cultivation OF his
farm is also rendered Difficult. and Gan
gerous. He asked that damages be
assessed and that the lands be turned
over to the company for its right-of-
way. ~
The company objected to the APP
pointment of the commissioners, urg-.
ing that it operated, in laying it's
tracks, under a franchise granted by
the town, but the court ignored that
claim.

We find around US everywhere men who
are young in years, but who in body are
actually old and decrepit. This premature
old age is becoming more common every
year. Thousands are continually dying who
are scarcely 80 years of age, from complete
worn out state of their systems, just as
literally Of old age as though they had lived
to be 100, and the cause of this is due to
general demoralized condition OF the great
vital organs of the body - the stomach, the
liver, the kidneys and the blood; let any of
these become impaired and the blood instead
of flowing through the body and carryin
nourishment to all its parts, becomes filed
with poisonous secretions which generate and
multiply continually, ceasing to build up
new flesh tissue, so that gradual wasting
and decay takes place until the day comes
when a complete collapse is experienced and
speedy death ensues.
The Indian is noted for his longevity, due
to the fact that he takes no medicine that
contains poisonous ingredients, but depends
upon his famous Kiekapoo Indian Sagwa

from roots, barks, gums and herbs of the

Just a
Little Pain.

The first touch of Rheumatism is a
fair warning of much torture to follow.
The little pains which dart through the
body are not so severe at first, possibly a
mere pang, and cause little inconven-
fence, but if the warning is unheeded,
8hey will multiply rapidly and increase
in severity until they become almost
unbearab1e.
Rheumatism as a rule is much severer
IN winter, though many are so afflicted
with it that they are crippled all the
year round. Those who felt its first
touch last year, may be sure that with
Ehe first season of cold or disagreeab1e
weather, the mild pain of last year will
return as severe one, and become more
and more intense until the disease has
Ahem completely in its grasp.
Being a disease of the blood of the
most obstinate type, Rheumatism can
be cured only by real blood remedy.
No 1iniments or ointments can possibly
reach the disease. Swift's Specific
Is s. S. is the only cure for Rheuma-
fism, because it is the only blood remedy
that goes down to the very bottom of all
obstinate blood troubles, and cures cases
which other remedies cannot reach.

This wonderful remedy rectifes al DIS

Bankers md Postal Banks.

John Farson, of the banking house
of Farson, Leach & Co., Chicago,
offered a resolution in the Illinois Bank
ers' association meeting at Peoria, Oct
Ii, urging the establishment of postal
savings banks by the national govern
eminent. The resolutions recited that
the number of savings banks in the
United States, especially in the west
and south, was not sufficient to meet
the needs of persons of small means
for safe places of deposit for their
small accumulations. They declared
that the establishment of postal saw
ings banks would tend to the greater
stability of the government by giving
to those of small means more per-
sonal interest in its well-being and
would promote the welfare of the coun-
try by encouraging among the people
habits of thrift and economy.
It was, therefore, suggested that the
convention give its Endorsement to the
movement among the people looking to
the establishment of postal savings
banks; provided that the system be
carefully safeguarded so as to protect
both the. nation and the depositors,
and provided, further, that the limita
ton on the amount that may be depos-
tied by any one person be such as to
prevent unnecessary interference with
the business of private bankers. The
bankers from Chicago we're all appar
emily in favor of the resolutions; how
ever, a number of cautious bankers
from other cities of the state buried
them, though friends of the movement
were not lacking among the small
bankers. The opposition seemed to be
based on a fear that postal savings
banks would take some depositors
from the banks run for private gain.
On the other hand, it was urged by
friendly bankers that the government
banks would assist the banking bust
ness by making all banks more safely
conservative and by increasing largely
the number of bank depositors, all Of
whom would begin in small way and
would in many instances grow out of
the restricted limits of government
banks within few years.

JURY rs DISCHARGED
The Issue In the Luetgert Case Is
Not Settled

Chicago, Oct. 21.-The jury in the
famous Luetgert murder case was dis
charged from further consideration of
the case at about IL o'clock this morn
ing. AT that time Judge Tuthill called
the jurors before him and asked each
one if he thought it possible to arrive
at a verdict, and the reply of each was
in the negative. Judge Tuthill ex
pressed regret that the issue could not
have been decided one way or the
other. Then he discharged the jury,
after thanking them for their close
attention during all the period of the
protracted trial. The case will have
to be tried over again.
AS the jurors slowly filed back into
the courtroom, the air was filed with
intense excitement. The crowd arose
to it's feet in its eagerness to hear the
decision. The rapping of the bailiffs'
mallets and the calls to sit down"
were scarcely needed. The jury stood
in two silent rows in the jury box and
waited for order. There was moment
of breathless silence. Luetgert, as he
leaned forward. in his chair, with his
eyes riveted upon the faces of the jur-
ors, was the picture of intense anxiety.
Attorneys Vincent and Phalen on one
side of the table aud Deneen and
McEwen on the other listened eagerly
for the decision.
Gentlemen" said Judge TuthilI, in
an apparently undisturbed tone,
have you agreed upon a verdict"
We have not" replied the foreman.
There was a buzz of voices in the
room. The bailiffs' mallets and voices
were again brought into play. States
Attorney Deneen and Assistant States
Attorney McEwen were plainly disap-
pointed. Inspector Setback looked
still deeper aggrieved. On the de-
Tense side of the table there was also
disappointment, but apparently not so
keenly felt.
Rumors of corruption are flying
thick and fast, but as yet there is moth
ing to substantiate them. The long,
wearisome trial, with the confusing
mass of evidence, produced such de-
cidedly different effects on the minds
of the jury that they found there was
no chance for an agreement. Ballot
after ballot was taken, but in vain.
There were some who declared they
would hang out indefinitely for YER
diet Of guilty. while others were just as
set in the opposite convictions. FL
nally it was decided to announce dis
agreement, with the result as given

vessel Owners Find the Earnings on the
Wrong Side of the Ledger.
Vessel owners and captains are be-
ginning to figure up the seasons bus
mess, and so far as they can discern
will come out on the wrong side of the
ledger. Especially is this true with
the majority of lumber and wood
carriers. Already three boats have
gone into winter quarters and others
will follow long before the close of nav
igation. 1t has been about the poor
est season in the history Of navigation.
This is attributed to the fact that steam

dency to reduce freights and force the
sailing boats to the wall.
Grain freight rates, while they have
been nothing extra during the season,
are now good and steady. Corn brings
Il cents bushel, with a demand for
all the boats in sight. When strikes
are on, and when soft coal producers
are dealing with evil way companies,
they are not regarded as a strong body
Of business men, but they work to-
gether in lake freight matters just the
same, very much to the disadvantage
of vessel owners.
