Safe Blowers Busy.

Beloit, Sept About 1 o'clock last
night the safe in the Missouri Pacific
depot at this place was blown open. The
robbers did not secure anything. The

broken up. The safe in the same depot
was blown open about two years ago.
There seems to be an organized gang
as this is the fourth safe that has been
blown open in the past six weeks, in
this vicinity.

When a young woman sits down and
ponders over her future life, there is one
all-important subj ect which she should not

castles in the air with happy home, laugh

foreground. At that moment she may be
facing death MatrirnOny and motherhood
hold out no happiness to the young woman
who suffers from weakness and disease of
the distinctly feminine organism. The wo-
man who suffers in this way will be a weak,
nervous, sickly, petulant wife, an incapable
mother and an unamiable hostess. Not
knowing the truth, her acquaintance will
not understand that she is deserving of
pity rather than reproach.

FALSE PRETENSE
Is Charged Against the Book Concern
of the M E. Church South.

hours yesterday the senate had under
discussion the resolution of Mr.. Lodge
(Mass.), directing the claims committee
to make an inquiry as to the DISPOSE
ton of the money appropriated by con-
greSS to pay the claims of the book con-
Germ of the Methodist Episcopal church
south. A heated colloquy between MI
Chandler On. HI, and Mr.. Pasco was
the feature of the discussion. Mr..
Chandler said that Mr.. Pasco was un-
Willingly and unwillingly the agent
through which a deception had been
practiced upon the senate Mr.. Pasco
demanded the withdrawal of the state
1nent but Mr.. Chandler insisted that it
was correct and refused to withdraw it,
although he disclaimed any intention to
reflect upon Mr.. PascO's honor. The
discussion of the matter developed the
fact that Major r. B. Stahlman was the
lobbyist who had received about 800, 900
of the amount awarded to the church,
and Messrs Hoar, Chandler and Till
man were free in asserting that the
church officials should see to it that he
is compelled to disgorge the amount
which had been paid him. in view of his
and their assertions that none of the
money awarded had been pledged or
would be paid to lobbyists.
