10 Urge the Passage of the Omaha
Exhibit BILL

tomorrow morning a delegation Of
omaha, Lincoln and Council Bluffs
men Will arrive in st. Paul from Du-
luth in advocacy of the Trans Missis
sippl q International Exposition which
is to be held in Omaha from June to
November, 1898. They will appear be-
lore the Minnesota legislature on be-
half of Senator w. E. Johnson's biI1
providing for an appropriation for q
Minnesota exhibit. The delegation is
headed by z. T. Lindsey, a large whole
SAFE merchant on Omaha, and a man
prominent in it's business affairs.
Another delegation is visiting Kan
sas, Colorado. Wyoming, Utah, Mon
tana, Idaho and the coast states. to
appear before the legislatures on the
same errand. Bills have been intro
duced in twelve or more state legis-
latures and are now pending. The bill
which the Nebraska legislature will
probably pass during the next week
will carry an appropriation Of 5000, 900,
or possibly quarter Of million when
finally passed The exposition will be
the greatest ever held in this coun-
try, with the two exceptions of the
worlds fair at Chicago, and the Cen
tennial exposition at Philadelphia. The
capital stock Of the exposition COM
pany is $1,OO0,0OO of which
over $4,000 has been already sub
scribed and partly paid up. Congress
has recognized the enterprise and
pledged 100000, which it is hoped to
have increased to half a million The
grounds selected embrace about 300
acres, and the total amount Of money
which it is expected to get together
will approximate two million dollars
1t is hoped to have twice the num-
| Der Of admissions that they had at the
California fair, and four times what
they had at Atlanta. The Omaha folk
say:
We believe that now is the time for
/ the West to strike. The Eastern and
middle states are full Of Disconnected
people and idle money. If we can show
them, that there is a revival started in
the West, and a new era Of develop
ment they will come out here just as
+ they did after the panic of '73 and the
depression which followed. While we
will get a great local benefit in Omaha
we also have a great local burden
| tc carry in an undertaking Of this size
and all Western states certainly have
many interests in common which will
be promoted by this undertaking.

GOES TO ST. CLOUD.
Spencer, FOrger, Is Sent to the Re
fOrrnatOry.

w. c.. v. Spencer, the young law
student, who recently pleaded guilty
to an indictment charging him with
passing forged check for $2.75, came
before Judge Kelly yesterday forenoon
for sentence. Spencer is Of genteel ap-
pearance, and inclined to stoutness. He
has round face, wears spectacIes and
locks more like divinity student than
anything else. Mr.. Spencer retained no
attorney. When asked what he had to
say why the sentence Of the court
should not be pronounced upon him,
Spencer said that he knew of no ex-
tenuating circumstances, unless drunk
enness was palliation, and he hated to
plead that, but if the court should con-
slider it an extenuation, then he would
ask for leniency.
Judge Kelly, in imposing the punish
ment, said he would follow the recon-
mendation of the county attorney and
send Spencer to the reformatory.

A delegation Of st. Anthony Park
citizens appeared before the board of
public works yesterday afternoon and
presented their objections to the con-
struction Of the proposed iron bridge
on Raymond avenue, with a 2S-foot
roadway and two 7-foot sidewalks. Such
a bridge would require a special as

owners were strongly opposed. The

THE CORRECT SPELLING.
United States Boards Action Settles the
Uniform Style In Alaskan Names.


The United States board on geographic
names has recently rendered decisions de-
termining the spelling of number of
Alaskan names, and the boards action
settles the uniform usage, Following is q
summary of action taken relating to places
eonspicuOusly mentioned in the gold
tories
As to Klondike, the decision is to spell
It as here given, and not Clondyke, klonS

Western Union telegraph expedition in
1868 after Mike lie Barge, a member of
The exploring party, who is now living
somewhere near Ottawa Late publica-
lions have fallen into the error of spelling
this LaBrage, but the board adheres to the
original form, LIE Barge. There is q lie

When Schwatka descended the Yukon in
1888, he named one of the lakes on its
headwaters Lindeman after DR.. Moritz
Lndeman, now vice president of the
Bremen Geographical society. This some
times appears enormously us Lindemann

board adopts the form Taiya.
For the lake and river variously called
Hootalinqua, or Hotalinga, or Teslin-Hina,

Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfe1d, Mo-,
writes: "For six years I have been a
sufferer from scrofulous affection of
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, D. c.,
Springfield, H., and st. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After six
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re-
moval of the gland. Atthis critical mo-
ment friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, l be-
gan its use. Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though lam
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had l only used your S.S.S. long ago,
l would have escaped years of misery
and saved over $50"
This experience is like that of all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root of
the disease and forces it out perma-
nently.

turn. 1t is hard to realize how you are be-
ing tangled up in the strands of sickness

Nearly all serious illnesses begin with
some stomach or liver trouble, or with a
costive condition of the bowels These
functions have got to be put in good condi-
ton before there can be any recovery from
any disease no matter what its name or ma
ture, and it is because DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery acts directly upon the
liver and digestive organs that it has such a
marvellous effect upon all diseases of NAL
nutrition.
It gives the digestive system power to
assimilate nourishment and make good
