THE silver PALACE.

The silver palace which has been
ordered for the ans-mississippi ex.
position will be a gorgeous structure,
one of the most imposing features
of the exposition. The plans as ap.
proved and accepted call for a build
ing 400 feet square, surmounted by
ornamental towers, and entirely COW
cred with sheets of thinly rolled sill
ver. Over 100000 square feet of
pure silver will be used in its con-
struction, the weight of which will
depend upon the degree of thinness
possible to give the sheets.
This queen of architectural designs
will be the central figure in a por-
ton of the ground to be known as
Ell Dorado, and its use will be for the
display of mineral resources. The
silver to 60 into this building will be
contributed by mining companies of

A DAY IN

While in Chicago recently we met
VIM. Mueller, formerly of Neihart,
who is at present making that place
his headquarters. He is glad to see
anyone from Neihart, and in this case
showed the HERALD man every our
tesy. Together we visited many of
the city's chief attractions, and talk
ed of the great political storm. Re-
ferring to the late heavy bank fail
ures, he says it is a pity that Bryan
was not elected, so that these unfor-
tunate fellows might have a chance
to say, 81 told you So" AS it now
stands, the sound money boys have
no excuse to offer. Mr.. Mueller be-
lieves sincerely hat no tariff legisla-
ton will be able to restore prosper
ity, and that unless under the new
administration some possible steps
may be taken to restore to silver its
money function, there is no hope of
returning prosperity.
Mr.. Mueller has heavy investments
at Neihart, and his faith is firmly
grounded in the future greatness of
this camp. He expects soon to re-
turn hither, and thinks 1897 will be
a good year for Neihart.

Troubles of a most serious charac-
ter, grown out of the recent election,
are brewing in Chicago. In twenty
third ward, on election night, a fight
occurred in a polling place, while the
votes were being counted. Accord
ing to report the place was rsided by
armed men, who discharged r~evolv-
ers indiscriminately among the ofic-
ers of election, killing one and Grip
pling four others. Two of the raid
ers were at the time identified as
prominent heelers of the ward, but
no arrests were made at once. Lat
erly, three of them have been placed
under arrest, and detectives are look
ing for more. Meanwhile, two at
tempts have been made to kill the
principal witness to the tragedy, and
another witness is poisoned by hands
intent on murder. One of the men
under arrest for killing an officer of
election is 7. J. O'Malley, alderman
of the 23d ward. The trial and its
outcome promise to be as terrible
and bloody as the historic Cronin
murder case. To say hat Chicago
is politically and socially rotten is
giving the town a shade the best of
it. There are about a dozen murders
committed daily within the city linn

knocked cold for Silt. A newsboy

A New Disc Overy, But Not a Patent

DR.. Redwen relates an interesting
account of what he considers a, remark
able cure of acute stomach trouble and
chronic dyspepsia by the use of the
new discovery. Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
He says: The patient was a man
VINO had suffered to my knowledge for
years with dyspepsia. Everything he
ate seemed to sour and create acid and
gases IN the stomach; he had pains like
rheumatism in the back, shoulder
blades and limbs, fullness and distress

causing palpitation and sleeplessness
at night.
L gave him powerful nerve tonics and
plood remedies, but to no purpose. AS
an experiment I finally bought a fifty
cent package Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at drug store and gave them
to him. Almost immediate relief was
given, and after he had used four
boxes he was to all appearances fully
cured
There was no more acidity or sour
Watery r1sings, no boating after meals
the appetite was vigorous and he has
gained between ten and twelve pounds
In weight of solid, healthy flesh.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are advertised and sold in drug stores
yet l consider them most valuable
addition to any physicians line Of
remedies. as they are perfectly harm
less and can be given to children or
lnValids in any condition of the
stomach with perfect safety, being
harmless and containing nothing but
vegetable and fruit essences, pure pep
sin and Golden Seal.
Without any question they are the
safest. most effective cure for indiges-
ton. biliousness, constipation and all
arrangements of the stomach, however
slight or severe.

they were to take passage on the Mar

When the visitors arrived at Port
Tampa they had their attention called
to the extensive improvements which
have been made at this point. A mil

the immense shipping predicted for this
