"A Curious LANE

In the midst of Kildine, an island in
the North Sea, is perhaps the most
curious lake in the world. The surface
OF It's waters is quite fresh, and SUD-
ports fresh water creatures and fresh
water vegetation; but deep down it is
as salty as the bluest depths of the sea.
and sponges and salt water fish live and
nave their being, to the delight and
despair of all scientists.

BIG POWDER MILLS BLOWN UP
Twenty Persons Believed to Have Been
Killed in California.

twenty PERSONS believed to Have Been
Killed in California.
At 5:15 Tuesday" ftcrnoon Santa Cruz
(Cal) was startled by a tremendous ex-
plosion. Buildings were shaken rs though
by violent earthquake, and the first
thought was that one had occurred. Hard
~ had the rumblings died away when the
second shock occurred, not so violent as
the first, and soon small boughs from
redwood trees, shingles, bits of powder
cans, and other debris began falling in
the streets of the city. They cleared up
all doubts as to the cause of the shock.
The California powder works had been
blown up. The second shock was follow
ed by third and then fourth, more vio-
lent than the others. Between fifteen
and twenty people, mostly young boys,
employed at the works, were killed, and
as many more were injured.
The first explosion occurred in the gum
cotton works. This was followed by the
destruction Of the nitroglycerin house,
and then a number Of buildings used in
the manufacture Of smokeless powder for
the Government Then the inside powder
ma gaZine blew up with a terrific roar.
Although considerable powder was stored
there, the amount was small in compari-
son with last week, as over 100 tons were
shipped to Chicago Sunday last to fill the
order of the Government.
Nothing is known as to what caused the
explosion, but it was probably due to spoll-
taneous combustion. There were many
wild rumors ahoat to the effect that Span
ish sympathizers did the work, but the
stories are probably based on the fact
that 4 number of persons of Spanish de-
scent live in the vicinity of the works.

What Do the Children Drink?

Don't give them tea or coffee. Have
you tried the new food drink called
GRAIN-O? 1t is delicious and nourish-
ing, and takes the place of coffee. The
more Grain-O you give the children the
more health you distribute through their
systems. Grain-O is made of pure grains.
and when properly prepared tastes like
the choice grades of coffee, but costs
about n as much. All grocers sell it. 15c.

Flower of Chameleon Habits.

A novel flower has been found at the
1sthmus of Tehuantepec. 1t has fac
ulty of changing it's color during the
day. In the morning it is white, when
the sun is at it's zenith it is red and at
night it is blue. The red, white and
blue flower grows on a tree about the
size of guava tree, and only at noon
does it give out any perfume.

Recommended as Pick-Me-Ups.


Take any man who is in the habit of
looking in the bottom Of his glass for
"pure sociability" at intervals from
noon until midnight, and for stomach
comfort before he breaks his fast in
the morning, and let him, after he has
risen and dressed, repair to drug store
instead of to a barrooom. He has no
appetite. He does not feel as though
he were call there" Instead of a cock
tail let him ask the druggist to prepare
a mixture of these ingredients and
quantities, which, when mixed togeth-
er, shall constitute a single dose:
Chloroform, five drops.
Tincture ginger, half teaspoonful.
Compound tincture cardamon, two
teaspoonsful.
Water, one wineglassful.
Swallow that slowly-take five min
utes to do it. You will be surprised to
find that in about five minutes the 'all

TRAFFIC STILL HEAVY
A SLIGHT DECREASE IN TONNAGE,
BUT ALL CARS IN SERVICE.
The Panhandle Lines Make a Good
Exhibit for October and the Last
Ten Acknowledgement Notes.

The train records show that In the week
ending Nov. Is a total of 1924 cars were
received and forwarded at Indianapolis,
p 1913 being loaded, falling off of 355 loaded
cars as compared with the week ending
Nov. Il, but ,729 more than in the corre-
spending week of 1897, 4.279 more than in 1896.
2,073 more than in 1885, and 3,08s more than
in the corresponding week of 1894 The in
creased movement of this year as compared
with previous years does not represent the
increase of tonnage, which, with the larger
cars in use, it is estimated would be an in
crease of at least 20 per cent. in iower-class
freights, and Is per cent. in the more bulky
fTeights, nor does the present movement
mean that business with the roads is at it's
maximum, as the volume of traffic at pres
ent is practically limited to the number of
cars the lines can furnish, no road having
any empty cars standing on sidetracks for
lack of business. On the contrary every
car service superintendent is planning to
secure more cars, and the situation is likely
TO become more serious when freights begin
10 move longer distances and the fall crops
of grain live stock. hay and produce of all
kinds seek the markets. The last few days
there has been a marked increase in ship
ments of grain, provisions and cereals for
export There is a heavy movement of an
thracite coal and coke. and of Ohio and In
diana Goals in this territory. The increase in
local business, however, is more striking
than in through traffic. The shipments of
machinery, furniture and general merchan-
disc are unusually heavy. Large quantities
of fruits and vegetables are being handled,
and so many buildings are in process of con-
struction here and in other Northern cities,
and business is so active with car works,
that the north-and-scuth lines are carrying
more heavy timber and lumber than in any
year in their history. The excellent BUSH
ness local manufacturers, the stock yards
and packing houses are doing has placed
indianapolis i'll the front rank as shipping
point. A travelling freight agent of a North
western line said on Friday that when he
had bad week in securing business at
other places he invariably came to this
point to make his weeks record more sat
