How to Cure Pneumonia.

At this time ofthe year cold is very
easily contracted and if let to run its
course without the aid of some reliable
cough medicine is liable to result in
that dreaded disease, pneumonia. We
know of no better remedy to cure a
cough or cold than Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. We have used it quite
extensively and it has always given
entire satisfaction.-O olagah, Indian
Territory Chief.
Thisis the only remedy that's known
to be certain preventative of pneumo-
MIA. Among the many thousands who
have used it for colds and la grippe we
have never yet learned of single case
having resulted in pneumonia. Persons
who have weak lungs or have reason
to fear an attack of pneumonia should
keep the remedy at hand. The 25c and

 Than Darkness.

CHEBoYeAS, Mich, July l.-The steamer Manitou is ashore near Harbor Springs. The tugs Favorite and 0naping have left for the scene. The Manitou is considered one of the finest passenger steamers on the great lakes.
 CHCAGo, June 30.-The Manitou left here Tuesday with over hundred pas sengers for Harbor Springs and Macki- nae island. The steamer was under good headway at the time she struck the sandy beach. The accident hap pened during a remarkably heavy fog.
 The passengers were taken across the bay to Petoskey on the steamer Hazel, which had been quickly dispatched to the stranded Manitou. This was the first time in 30 years service in the Lake Superior line that Capt. Allan Mcintyre, the veteran commander of the Manitou, has suffered stranding. The fog Tuesday night was so dense that navigation was practically sus- pended.
 But one vessel passed Sault Ste. Marie all night. Reports from Macki- nae City at midnight said that the fog on the water was so thick that it was impossible to see boats length.

 BUCKEYE DEMOCRATS.
The State Convention at Columbus One of the Biggest Ever Seen In the State.

The State Convention at Columbus One of
 the Biggest Ever Seen In the State.
 COLUMBUS. O., July 1.-The demo cratic state convention here was the most largely attended of any such oc- casion since the civil war. At that time there were some mass conventions which attracted large crowds, but no state conventions of recent years have equalled the present one in attendance. While this convention was in some re- spectsI mass meeting of free silver fusionists, the large attendance was partly due to the fact that complete new ticket was to be nominated, and there was m unusually large number of candidates for each place. These candidates had their respective troops of workers here in addition to the delegates, and they aggregated several thousand en- thusiastic hustlers. Over 1000 of such shouters came from the home counties of some of the candidates for governor, while there were many here for the candidates for minor places.
