the mothers own words. She said
"On the 28th Of Sept, 1896, while In the
bloom of health, Beatrice was suddenly
and severely afflicted with spinal mentn-
gifts. Strong and vigorous before, in five
weeks she became feeble and suffered from
q paralytic stroke which twisted her head
back to the side and made it impossible
for her to move limb. Her speech, how
ever was not affected. We called in our
family doctor, one Of the most experienced
and successful practitioners in the city.
He considered the case very grave one.
Before long little Beatrice was compelled
to weara plaster paris jacket. Prominent
physicians were consulted. electric bat
teries were applied, but no benefit was no
.iced until we tried DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
"Busy in my kitchen one afternoon was
startled by the cry of Mamma from little
Beatrice who was creeping towards me. l
had placed her on an improvised bed In the
parlor comfortably close to the fireslde
and given her some books and playthngs.
She became tired of waiting for me to come
back and made up her mind to 60 to me,
90 her story, MY Pink Pills made me
walk which she tells everyone who comes
to our house, was then for the first time
verified. She has walked ever since. She
has now taken about nine boxes OF the
pills and her pale and pinched face has
been growing rosy, and her limbs gained
strength day by day. She sleeps all night
long now, while before taking the pills she
could rest but few hours at time" Dr.

cAsEpF JESSE JAMES. JR,

Kansas City, Dec. 2S.-Jesse James,
Jr., charged with holding up a Mis-
souri, Pacific train near Leeds last Sep
tember, will not be tried on Jan. 2, the
date set for the case. The trial will be
postponed until Jan. 16, on the request
of James A. Reed, the new prosecuting
attorney.
1t is stated that the reason for the
continuance it that James is to be in
dited by a special grand jury which
will meet next Monday. AS the case
now stands James and all the other al
legged train robbers have been indicted
jointly. By this new move it will not
be necessary to dismiss the case against
w. w. Lowe, one of the alleged rob-
bers who turned informer, before he
takes the stand to give his evidence.
1t was feared that if loves case was
dismissed before the trial he might
refuse to testify against the others.

ACCEPT THE CIT.

The Colorado roads have practically
decided to accept the cut in time in
augurated Jointly by the Union Pacific
and Oregon Short Line, and are busily
preparing their schedules to fit the
jagged edges in the time tables which
will be left by the new schedules OF
those roads in effect January 4.
In order to prevent the Union Pa
ciflc from usurping all of the Missis-
sippi Valley-Salt Lake traffic, the Rio
Grande, the Western and the Mid
land are forced to change their time
tables, hence the activity. Just what
gain will be made from coast to coast
is not yet known, nor will it be until
tomorrow or next day, when at least
one of the Colorado roads will an
nounce its new schedule.
The fight for time gained seems to
be between the Union Pacific ana
Santa Fee, individually, and the Bur
lington and Rock Island, connecting
with the local roads and forming the
principal competitor TO the Union Pa
cific through the Rocky mountain re-
gion. The local roads must meet the
cut in time in order to keep their
feeders in the active world.-Denver

PosToFFICE SUGGESTIONS.
They Are Sent Out by the Department
For Adoption in Large Cities.

Washington, Dec. 2S.-The follow
ing suggestions for general adoption at
the postoffices in all large cities was
given out at the postoffice department
today:
1T is now the practice at the larger
postoffices to close the money order
business about 5 o'clock in the even
ing. The department realizes that
many persons, particularly those whose
time is fully occupied during the day,
are thus prevented from obtaining
money orders, and it has sought for
some time past to remedy this incon-
venience.
"A plan recently adopted at St. Louis
has proved so successful that it will
be generally introduced by Assistant
Postmaster General Heath, who has
suggested that inasmuch as a clerk is
on duty at the stamp window of the
larger offices during all or part of every
night, he may insure money orders
when applications are made therefor.
At present no arrangement is provided
for the payment Of orders, but if the
measure meets with tn approval of the
public, doubtless a complete system OF
issue and payment will be provided for
in the near future.

ried to the town in small boats.
In view of its Importance, it is
Thought strange that American troops
were not sent there some weeks ago.
The distance from Manila to Iloilo
is variously estimated at from 200 to
400 miles.
The Spaniards have chosen a strong
place for the concentration Of their
troops in the town of Zomboanga,
which, as the reports here indicate, is
strongly fortified and possessed Of
considerable natural strength from a
defensive point of view. 1t is not
doubted that they will be able to MAIN
tain themselves for an infinite period
of time against the insurgents, presum-
that they are not cut off from obtain
ing supplies from the sea. The town
itself has a population of q, 900.
The expedition sent to Iloflo consists
of the Eighteenth regular infantry, the
Iowa battalion, the Sixth artillery and
a detachment of the signal corps. The
men were shipped on board the trans
ports Arizona, Newport and Pennsyl-
vania.

PIPE ORGAN FOR BOULDER.

Boulder, Colo, Dec. 2S.-Rev DR.. Not
man of the Presbyt erian church, re-
turned from New York last Saturday
and the secret of his trip Is out.
DR.. Notman brings the gratifying
news that Andrew Carnegie, the ia
nous Scotch+American, has promised
to present to the Presbyterian church
of this place a large pipe organ. DR.
Notman is a Scotchman and was born
near Mr.. Carnegie's old home in Scot,
land. 1t is because of MIR. Notman's
being a Scotchman that he secured from
Carnegie this promise.
The organ will cost about $35, O00. The
Presbyterians Of Boulder are in high

Omaha, Dec. 2S.-The faith of the
family OF Judge J.. w. Eller of Omaha

~necessitate in this case stations 10 men,

run ten minutes apart. This innova-
ton will require a vigilant brakeman
constantly ready for action with fuses,

road men have to be selected for this
purpose. The railroad men who have
charge of the extra trains are Conduc-
tors Rich, Storey and Bond; Brakemen

very little difference in the time of

]. ". Steelman Fatally Shoots 7, M.
Carter
At FLAT TOP YARDS.
SteeIman Was an Employee of N. and
W. Railway and Carter a Merchant
at Falls Mills.

On last Wednesday afternoon difficulty
took place at Flat Top Yards, in this
county which resulted in the talshooting
of MIR. T. Nj. Carter by ]. w. Steelman.
Steelman is a one armed man, was an en-
ployee of the N. and N. Railway, and was
running the stationary engine at the pump
house at Flat Top YarGs.
IMr. Carter was a merchant at Falls
Mills, in this county. He was about thirty
years old, was born and raised near
Springville, and leaves wife and several
children. He was g most worthy man
and well thought of by those who knew
him. Mr.. Carter died on Thursday after
noon, but before his death made a dying
statement, which was reduced to writing
and is now in the possession of the clerk
of the county court of Tazewell county.
There was but one witness to the tragedy,
the telegraph operator at the yards. 1t Is
said that the shooting was the outcome OF
an old grudge, but we make it rule to
not publish rumors in connection with
troubles of this kind, as it might possibly
prejudice mans case.
Mr.. Steelman was t9ken before a MAILS"
trate at Graham and on Friday afternoon
was lodgded in the Jail at this place to
await the action of grand jury.
