The Irf r. Hicks 1901 Almanac

Whatever may be said of the scien-
tific causes upon which the Rev. Irl
Il Hicks bases his yearly forecast
of storms and weather, it is are mark
able fact that specific warming of
every great storm, food, cold wave
and drouth, have been plainly print
ed in his now famous Almanac for
many years. The latest startling
proof of this fact was the destruction
of Galveston, Texas, on the very day
named by Prof. Hicks in his 1900
Almanac, as one of disaster by storm
along the gulf coast. The 1901 Al
manac, by far the finest, most com =
plete and beautiful yet published.

NrgInio'S Representation

One of the pressing duties OF Con.
gress tins winter will be To determine
the basis of representation in Con-
gress. Virginia is much interested in
this question because the number of
her Representatives will depend upon
the ratio adopted. The population
of Virginia by the late census is
1854, 1S4, so that If the ratio be one
to 200, 900 of population Virginia will
have only nine representatives in the
lower House Of Congress and only
eleven votes In the Electoral College,
instead CT ten representatives and
twelve electors as at present. Rep
resentative James G. Needham, of
California, now in Washington, ex-
presses the opinion that l94, 900 of
population will be adopted as the
basis of representation, In that case
Virginia would retain her ten Repre-
sentatives and twelve electors, as the
population divided by $4,000 would
give nine and fraction larger than
one half.-Lynchburg News,

FOR MUNICIPAL DIVINE RSHIP
Clifton George lnaugurates Hove
ment at Oklahoma City

Guthrie, o. T., Feb. 20.-Mr. Clifton
George, secretary OF the Oklahoma City
commercial cub. is an ardent advocate
of public ownership Of municipal improve
ments and for some time he has been
carrying on a campaign with the object
Of placing the system in operation in
Oklahoma City. His plan contemplate
the issuing of a sufficient amount Of
bonds that will enable the city to put in
its own system Of street railways, water
works, and gas. II believe" said he,
'the city could well afford to bond it
self for an amount that would put all
of the above improvements here, and that
the action once taken would do more to
making the future OF the city than any
one action that it could take. The cap
ital TO put all Of this in opration would
he a large amount, but it can be had at
a low rate Of interest and the saving that
would be effected and the earnings Of the
plants, 1 believe, would in twenty years,
pay back all the money borrowed, and
would reduce the taxes Of the city 10
a point where they would be the lowest
of any city in the country. / honestly
believe that the taxes for municipal pur-
poses would not be needed but per contra
the earnings of the plants would pay all
expenses and would provide funds for
other purposes such as paving etc I have
talked with a number of leading business
men about the matter and they are con-
sidering it very carefully and we will
have a meeting in a few days to see If
We can not commence a campaign Of

VERY FEW PEOPLE
Are Free From some Form Of Indi-
%estiOn.


Very few people are free from some
form of indigestion, but scarcely two will
have the same symptoms.
Some suffer most directly after eating,
bloating from gas in stomach and bowels,
Others have heartburn or sour risings,
stin others have palpitaton Of heart.
headaches, sleepIessness. pains in chest
and under shoulder blades, some have ex-
treme nervousness as in nervous dys-
pepsia.
But whatever the symptoms may be, the
cause in all cases of indigestion is the
same, that is, the stomach for some
reason fails to properly and promptly
digest what is eaten.
This is the whole story of stomach
troubles in q nutshell. The stomach must
have rest and assistance and Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets give II both by supply
ing those natural digestives which every
weak stomach lacks, owing to the failure
of the peptic glands in the stomach to
secrete sufficient acid and pepsin TO thor

arts Dyspepsia Tablets viii digest 5000
food. and this claim has been proven by

pieces. as it would be if masticaJed. place
the egg and two or three of the tablets
in a bottle or jar containing warm water
heated 10 IS degrees tthe temperature Of
the body and keep it at rnis temperature
for three and one-half hours at the end
OF which time the egg Will be as COM
pletely digested as il would have been IN

The point of this experiment is that
what Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will 90 u

will rest and invigorate the stomach so
safely and enectuaily. Even little child
can take Stuart's Tablets with safety

their regular daily use are easily ex-

STORY OF A DlGNITARY

Guthrie. O. T, Feb. 2O.-Considerable
speculation exists here concerning the

regard to his published statement that
MS visit is for the purpose Of urging the
passage of the bill increasing the salary
of the federal judges in the territory from
5000 to 5000. Judge McAtee was ap-
pointed by President Cleveland through
Maryland influence. and his retention on
the bench two years after the expiration
of his original commission, continues to
excite the wonder, not to say disfavor,
of the Republicans, who naturally expect
ed the place to be filled by some good
man Of their own party. Time and again
the president has been urged to replace
McAtee with a Republican, and one OF
the highest dignitaries of the territory
made a special trip 10 Washington to lay
before the president reasons why the
change should be made. 1t is said that
