A Big Loss.

| The thunder storm Thursday night
of last week played with many peoples
property in reckless way, but with
none to such detriment as with that OF
Judge Harvey Eisiminger, of Salt CreeF
township, some six or eight miles west
of town.
Sometime near eleven O'Clock he was
awakened by one of his boys who no
ticed that his big barn, with sheds for
farm implements and grsnaries in con-
nection, was on fire and the flames
we're we'll under way. Mr.. Eisiminger
urged his boys to stay away for fear of
being themselves caught in the flames,
but they went and succeeded in saying
buggy and a couple of old feed
wagons and some 400 or son bushels of
corn. Everything else went. The loss
is about as follows: Barn and buildings
worth about $1,000, a header, self
binder, seven cultivators, two good new
wagons, harness and other similar ar
ticles, sixteen head of g cd horses, one
COW, from 3. 800 to 1000 bushels of corn
and nearly 900 bushels of oats. This
leaves Mr.. Eisiminger with one Guilt
vator the two old wagons and hand
pillow of all his farm machinery and only
two or three unbroken colts of all his
horses. He estimates the loss at about
81, 900 Not very long ago a large num-
Der of Salt Creek farmers insured in
the Burlington, of Iowa. Mr.. Elsi-
minger was one Of them. Soon after
he had paid his premiums the concern
failed. This disguised him so that he
had not got the insurance renewed
since, and the damage is a total loss to
him. Mr. EisimiDger is one of our
very best citizens and he and his boys
have worked hard for this property
which went up in few minutes.

Lightning Freaks.

The thunder storm last Thursday
night, was one of the severest known
in this part of the country for long
time. Lightning struck in not less
than half a dozen places in town or
near it. The home of Frank Wooley,
a paper hanger living a short distance
east of town, was struck and badly
damaged.
The residence of Ed Russell, 6O5 A
East, was also struck and chimney
torn down.
Lightning ran into the Rock Island
depot and started blaze at the switch
board, which would have probably
proved serious had there not been
some one there who put 1t out.
AT the house of Fletcher Meredith
about seventy feet of plaster fell all at
once and next morning after the boss
had collected bis wits so as to get out
he found hole in the roof. Fletcher
says it was worse than Gettysburg.

modern policeman does not proclaim his
coming to the evil doer by shouting or by
carrying lantern. He does his work more
quietly and effectively than the Old-fash-
Toned town watchman.
1t is thus that in all the walks Of life and
in all occupations, times change and knowl-
edge and efficiency increase. In this re-
spect medical science has kept pace with
the advance in other lines. Physicians and
chemists have grown rapidly more skillful.
There are medicinal preparations nova
days that cure diseases that were few
years ago considered absolutely incurable.
The fual triumph in this respect is DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. 1t
was first given to the world thirty years
ago, and has stood the test ever since that
time 1t cures 90 per cent. of all cases of
consumption, bronchial, throat and kindred
affections. Thousands who were hopeless
sufferers, and had been given up by the
doctors, have testified to its marvellous
merits. It is the great blood maker and
ilesh-builder. It makes the appetite hearty,
the digestion and assimilation perfect, the
liver active, the blood pure and rich with
the life-giving elements of the food and the
nerves strong and steady. 1t acts directly
on the lungs and air-passages, driving out
all impurities and disease germs. An hon
est dealer will not try to persuade you to
take an inferior substitute for the sake of a
few pennies added profit.

ings more cheerful. The tasts Of the
American people has kept pace with

picture, draping, piece Of furniture
or other form OF mural decoration.
One Of the latest Of these has been
given to the world by the celebrated
artist, Muville, In a series OF four
handsome porcelain game plaques.
Not for years has anything as hand
some In this line been seen. The sub
1ects represented by these plaques are
American Wild Ducks, American
Pheasant American Quail and English
Snipe. They are handsome paintings
and are especially designed for hang
ing on dining-room walls, though
their richness and beauty entities them
