Bros. Will Manufacture at Salem.
After thorough test of ten weeks
at the asylum of the fire brick burned

found that they had stood the test
and come out of the furnace in the
finest shape. The brick was placed
in tue hottest place in one-hundred
horse power boiler furnace, burning
three cords Of WOOD per day.
Messrs. Gilbert Bros. will have
made during the winter and early
spring about one-hundred thousand
of these fire clay brick and will have
them ready for the trade as soon as
possible in the spring. 1t is the in
tention OF Gilbert Bros, to make this
an extensive industry after a thorough
test of one season, and the best ma
chinery will be had to do the work.
They expect to turn out some as fine
work as is done any where. They
have become sole owners of the large
bed of natural fire brick clay at Buena
Vista, the quality of which is known
to be superior to any on this coast.

INTENSE SUFFERING
From Dyspepsia and StOm-
ach Trouble.
Instantly Relieved and Permanently
Cured.
A New Discovery, But Not a Patent
A New Discovery, But Not a Paten
Medicine.

DIR Redwell relates an interesting
account of what he considers a re-
markable cure of acute stomach
trouble and chronic dyspepsia by the
use of the new discovery, Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
He says: The patient was man
who had suffered to my knowledge for
years with dyspepsia. Everything he
ate seemed to sour and create acid and
passes in the stOmach; he had pains
like rheumatism in the back, shoulder
blades and limbs, fullnes and distress
after eating, poor appetite and loss of
flesh: the heart became effected,
causing palpitation at night.
l gave him powerful nerve tonics
and blood remedies, but to 10 pur-
nose. As an experiment. L finally
bought fifty cent package of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets at a drug store
and gave them to him. Almost i'm
mediate relief was given and after
he had used four boxes he was to all
appearance fully cured.
There was no more acidity or sour
watery risings, no bIoati6g after
meals, the appetite was vigorous and
he has gained between 10 and II
pounds in weight Of solid, healthy
flesh.
Although StUart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's are advertised and sold in drug
stores yet l consider them most val
liable addition to any physicians line
of remedies, as they are perfectly
harmless and can be given to children
or invalius or 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-
tion, biliousness, constipation and AL
arrangements of the stomach how
ever slight or severe.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by druggists everywhere at fifty cents
for full sized package.

SHRIEKED AT DOOM.
Iowa Woman Found Guilty Of Murder
ing Her Blind Husband.

Des Moines, Ia, June 23.-The Jury
in the case of Betsy Smith, who was on
trial for the second time for the murder
of her blind husband, Michael Smith,
returned a verdict of guilty of murder
in the first degree and fixed the penalty
at Imprisonment in the penitentiary for
life. Mrs. Smith, who had maintained
stOlid cOmposure during the trial,
shrieked on hearing the verdict and
fell fainting in the arms of her daugh-
ter, Mrs. Chaplin.
Michael Smith was an engineer on the
Rock Island. He was shot in his room
early in 1898 and blinded He died in
April %, 1894, and the testimony show
ed he was poisoned. Mrs. Smith was
arrested for the murder tried, convict
ed and sentenced to the penitentiary for
life. Later her daughter Cora was ar
rested at Omaha for completely in the
crime. She made confession, in
which she exonerated her mother, and
claimed that she and Mrs. ScoViile COM
mitted the crime. She was sentenced
to the penitentiary for life. Betsy
Smith secured a new trial and Cora re-
told her story in court, but the jury
did not believe her, and Mrs. Smith was
convicted a second time. The object
of the murder was to secure $4,000 in
surance on Smiths life in the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers. Mrs.
Scoville, who was connected with the
murder by Cora's confession, lives in

WHY KANSANS ARE SICK.
Congressman Botkin's Is Year Old
Son Bugler at Camp AIger.

Washington, June 23-The Twenty

best. The hospital arrangements are
being criticised severely. Our Kansas

be efficient and popular. The regiment
drills five hours per day, which is hard
work this hot weather, and may be one
of the causes of a large sick list.
Congressman Botkin, who has been
on the sick list for about two weeks
visited camp with his family yesterday.
His son Ralph, who is but 16 years old
obtained his fathers consent and has
enlisted as bugler and assigned to COM

Rev. S. E. Pendletcn, D. D., of Bald

partment for the authority to recruit
a regiment. The doctor had experience
in the civil war and would doubtless
make an efficient and popular officer.
He is one of the leading Methodist min
listers of the state, and formerly lived
in Topeka where he was for four years
presiding elder.
Much regret is expressed by members
of all parties over Mr.. Broderick's pros
pective retirement from congress. He
has been a faithful, modest, earnest,
efficient representative. This is not
said in disparagement of Mr. Curtis.
for he also is popular and efficient. In
fact the entire Kansas delegation is a

ferences, and is made up of industrious.

COLOR LINE DRAWN.
Negroes Only Admitted to a Kentucky
School

NichoIasville, KY, June 23.-The fam
Gus schools for both races and sexes at
Berea and Ariol will cease to receive
both races. The Christian church has
bought the school at Ariol, and the sale
only remains to be ratified by the board
of education in Louisville. The college
Berea will hereafter take only white
pupils, poor mountain boys, from Ken
lucky and Virginia to be educated there
for the ministry.
Shortly after the war, northern capt.
taliStS, headed by John G Fee, of
Boston, interested themselves in this
movement, and Berea, in Madison coun-
ty was established. For a long time
the school was kept up by these north
ern capitalists, but some years after
they abandoned the plan and Fee alone
has since conducted the college by the
use of his individual funds, and many
preachers and professors of both races
have graduated at that place.
Fee bought lands to sell to negroes.
He was active in educational, church
and temperance work. Many disting-
uished men came and wrote about
Berea- Judge Beckner, of Winchester,
took to the movement and made a
lengthy defense of it in the public
prints. The elders of the Century
Magazine, and George w. Gable, the
novelist, visited Berea and wrote of it
white men who went there were seldom
kentuckians.
Preacher John G. Fee a year ago left
the Congregationalist for the Christian
church and sold Ariol to that organi-

SHIELDED HER BABY.
In so Doing Mrs. w. w. Hays Be
comes Cripple for Life.

Neodesha, June 23.-Mrs. WV. Hays,
wife of w. W. Hays, was the victim of
a very painful accident Tuesday morn
ing. When Mr.. Hays hitched to the
load of corn to feed the cattle Mrs.
Hays took her babe and accompanied
him. She sat on the spring seat and
when he reached the troughs, he tied
the lines to the brake, as was his GUS
tom, and began throwing the corn out
of the rear of the box. Mrs. Hays
hoisted her parasol which frightened
the horses and they started to run. Mr..
Hays attempted to reach the lines but
was thrown out and knocked senseless.
AS the horses turned, Mrs. Hays was
also thrown out but with true devotion
of q mother so shielded her babe that
it was uninjured. The upper portion of
her hip bone was broken and also the
thigh bone at the joint. Their children
fastened to their relief and DR.. Allen
was called and reduced the fracture as
well as possible but Mrs. Hays will
probably be a cripple for life.

CYLIST WITH A JAG.
Chicago Ran Left to Sober Up With

Chicago, June 23.-Crowds in Garfield

weapon was his wheel The disasters
attendant upon his reckless dash were
not numerous nor serious but this was
due to al1-rOund good luck, for the spec

for himself and many in his path.
He was not merely intoxicated he
was frenzied also, and his inebrfety
tended to shape his course in letter SIS.
He invaded the main patch through the
park when the afternoon throngs were

darted around the fountain at high
speed, and plunged into the crowd Men
yelled to him to stop as he swerved
He escaped injury, but the next mo-
ment struck young woman'S wheel.
She fell in a heap, with her bicycle on
top of her, but the cause of her mishap
held his seat and kept on.
Shouts of "Brute" followed him and
were ringing in his ears as he knocked
over bearded cyclist who was hugging
the proper side of the road. Again the
cause of trouble was not feazed, and
flew off at tangent, grazing the hind
wheels of buggy, and then colliding
with a man, who did not know what
had struck him until he picked himself
out of a bush.

the offending wheelmen then burst
