The True Remedy.

w. NJ. Refine, editor Tiskilwa, H.,
Chief, says: I'VE won't keep house
without Or. Kings New Discovery
for consumption, coughs and colds.
Experimental with many others, but
never got the true remedy until we
used DR.. Kings New Discovery. No
other remedy can take its place in
our home, as in il we have a certain
and sure cure for coughs, colds,
whooping cough, etc. 1t is idle to
experiment with other remedies, even
if they are urged upon you as just rs
good as DR.. Kings New Discovery.
They are not as good, because this
remedy has n record of cures and
besides is guaranteed. 1t never fails
to satisfy. Trial bottles free at

on the way to fire the other day the
attention of a fire company vas called
by a kindhearted old lady to a dis
tressed cat up high tree in Union

boys kindly stopped and put up high
ladder and brought Tabby down. The
thrilling rescue was loudly applauded.
In the meantime the building went on

TAXIDERMISTS PUZZLED.
They Cannot Tell the Species of a
Strange Bird Found in Phil
adelphia.

Philadelphia, Sept. .e-Since the arc
electric lights have been placed beneath
the statue of william Penn the tower
of the city hall in addition to serving as
beacons they have attracted numerous
birds, who, becoming blinded by the
powerful lights, have had their little lives
crushed out by flying ruthlessly against
the bronze statue. The birds heretofore
have been sparrows or other common spe-
cies, but G. H. Slaughter, foreman of the
electricians in the marble pile at Broad
and Market streets, found the body of a
strange bird on the pedestal of Penn S
statue.
Mr.. Slaughter knows more about birds
than the average person, and, as conse-
quence, he carefully gathered it up, and
the more he examined it the more puzzled
he became. In all his knowledge of birds
and in all the books he had read on the
subject he could recall no description of
such bird.
Mr.. Slaughter brought his find to the
office of the public buildings commission
and was soon surrounded by the attaches.
They were a unit in saying that they had
never seen or read of such a kind of bird.
A high school girl, who was waiting to
take the elevator to the tower, could
throw no light the matter.
1t is a small bird, about the size of a
robin, but having the color of a partridge,
with long green legs. long bill and short
tail.
Mr. Slaughter said he guessed he would
on several taxidermists, but they could
not tell him what kind of a bird it was.
They said however. it was a rare species
and ren1arkable that

ECLIPSE THE KLONDIKE.
Mountains of Gold Discovered in
Mexico.

Sedalia, Sept. 6.-J. w. Corkins, Sc
da1ia capitalist, and Leo Cloud, an ex-
pert mining engineer of Cincinnati, O.,
cinnati syndicate, will leave here to-
morrow for the west coast of Mexico to
practically verify the value of the gold
placer and quartz mines which have
recently been secured by the syndicate
through concessions and mineral land
grants from the republic of Mexico.
Messrs. Corkins and Cloud will go di-
rect to HermOs Ito and from there to the
gold fields in the new Eldorado, located
in YaQui Indian country, which has just
been opened to entry to white men.
This part of Mexico has been explored
but little by the whites, but if the re-
ports of the Syndicate'S proSpectors are
true, the inland mountain ranges along
the west coast of Mexico are richer even
than those of the Klondike. The placer
mines are said to be marvelouSly rich
in scale and nugget gold, while the

ROGER WILLIAMS FOLKS.
Notable Gathering at Providence to
Do Honor to the Pioneer.

Providence, R. L, Sept. 6.-Thefe was a
notable gathering at Roger Williams
park Saturday when 1000 descendants of
Roger Williams, the founder of this city,
assembled there to do honor to his mem
ory. There were Williamses, big and lit
tie, old and young, who came from all
over the country in response to the noti-
fications and the chiefs of the clan. There
were orations and reading of poems, and
singing around the monument that has
been raised in the park a mark of re-
spect to Roger.
An outsider would naturally suppose
that the meeting would wind UP with an
old fashioned Rhode Island clam bake,
the feast discovered by Roger along with
the city of Providence, but such was not
the case. Sad to relate, if there are any
Rhode Island CLAIMS in existence, they
are where the most active digger is un-
able to unearth them, for the historic
Rhode Island clam is almost extinct. AS
a substitute CLAIMS from Cape Cod are
now served at the Narragansett Bay
bakes. However much the Williams tribe
wanted CLAIMS today, they feared to tackle
the Cape Cod articles on Rogers day. 1t
was a sacrilege, they said, and so they
ate sandwiches and drank water from
Rogers well.
