each cold was worse than the one before. My
throat seemed to get weaker. and the least
change in the weather started the coughing
again. The last cold was the most severe of
all. l was really frightened. Cough drops
and home treatment did no good. A friend
told me about Acker's English Remedy. 1
got n bottle, and You never saw the like of
the way il acted. Before the bottle was gone
was well. Ny throat felt rs strong and well

trouble. think Acker'S English Remedy so
strengthens the delicate lining of the throat
that il easily resists the changes in tempera-
ture, audit builds upthe constitution as well.

When things are 1.-THE best" they
become 1.-the best selling" Abraham
Hare, leading druggist of Belleville,
Ohio, writes; Electric Bitters are
the best selling bitters l have handled
in 20 years. You know why? Most
diseases begin in disorders of the
stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels, blood
and nerves. Electric Bitters tones up
the stomach, regulates the liver, kid
neys and bowels, purifies the blood,
and strengthens the nerves, hence
cures multitudes of maladies. 1t
builds up the entire system. Puts
new life and vigor into any weak,
sickly, rundown man or woman.

CROTON VALLEY STRIKERS.
Sheriff Arrests Twenty-Six Italians-Oth
ers Flee from Thor Hom.s


Flee from Their Hom's
Croton Landing. y. Y, April 20
Yesterday was by far the livelieSt day
In and around the Croton valley since
the strike began, seventeen days ago.
The civil and military authorities
played n very prominent part in the
days proceedings, and the result is that
twenty-siX Italians are now behind
prison bars awaiting examination on
charges of melting TO riot and carry
ing weapons with intent to infiict bod
lily injury.
Sheriff Molloy secured warrants for
the arrest of the leaders of the Strik-
ers, and also search warrants for the
houses in the Italian colonies where
the labOrers lived. This fact became
known and more than 100 Italians fed
from their homes during the night to
avoid arrest. 1t was said yesterday
that fully $50 of the men who had
struck for higher wages had gone to
New York and Syracuse. where they
have secured other places. In serving
the warrants the sheriff was escorted
by twenty-five deputies and company
of soldiers. He seized few arms.

TRIP TO FRENCH CAPITAL.

Frugal People Can See the Exposition for
S165.
What will it cost a poor man TO go
to Paris from Rock Island?' is a topic
that is being much investigated. 1t
is perplexing dozens of persons of
limited means who want to ''do"
Paris for once in their lives. The
general impression seems to prevail
that the Parisians intend to "do" the
Americans, who are supposed over
there to be only of the millionaire
class.
According to the estimate OF a
steamship agent who is nearly as well
known in Paris as he is in Chicago,
the cheapest rate that can be figured
out is $157 for total expenses from
Chicago Add to this SO for fare
from Rock Island and you have $167.
That is recommended for those who
want to economic to the greatest ex-
tent. His figure for the middle class
is from $3.50 to $500 and he makes an
other for the wealthy. which isn't of
any particular interest to the most of
us. In the cheap trip the railway
and steamship parts of the journey
would have to be made in second-class
train and in the steerage. The rates
for living expenses in Paris in
clude three meals a day at a good
restaurant. The various items of ex-
pense in a trip of this nature are as
follows: Railway fare to Chicago and
return, 80; railway fare to New
York and return. $32; meals, So;
Storage passage to Havre, railway to
Paris. round trip, 500; room in Paris,
one month, $40; meals in Paris at 81
per day, 80 days, $50; 60 tickets to
exposition. at l franc each, $12; Incl
$40; total, 1857.

Freight Locomotive Lowers Records of
O's Passenger Twins.
The Chicago, Burlington 4 Quincy
| railroad has a pair of big twin en-
gines, 1891 and 1892. They are only
a little over year old and weigh 127
tons apiece They have great wheels,
81 inches in diameter, and compound
cylinders extra large. AS a matter of
fact, they are the biggest passenger
engines ever built, and as to fast run
ming, they have been the whole
| thing"
Now what do you suppose hap
pened?
A mogul. class H-2. 1919, fairly
we'll born, to be true, but compare
lively lightweight. with but very
little brass work about her, used prin-
cipally in the freight service and con-
sidered an excellent steady old girl,
was the other day, in case of emer-
gency, hooked on to the fast mail No.
s at Burlington, and went sailing into
Chicago, 205 $40 miles. in exactly POS
minutes-after stopping on the way
seven times to take drink. At Mem
dota she stopped six minutes, and the
story goes that something a little
stronger than water was given her
there, because, on leaving the town,
she felt so gay that Aurora, As 40
miles away, was reached in just 40
minutes. A rate of GO lilo miles an
hour for mogul! Engineer Gillette
aud Conductor Cullenbine say it was
all done on the square, and that she
had nothing to drink at Mendoza but
pure water.
Well, at any rate, the twins are flu
rious, and they are putting and blow
ing about what they will do the next
time they are turned loose. They
never liked the mogul, and say she is
a fast old thing. Probably after this
they won't whistle as she passes by.

GIGANTIC FARMERS TRUST.

VIII Corner Wheat,

VIII Corner Wheat,
Topeka, Kan. April 20.-The pre-
liminary steps toward the organiza ton
of a gigantic farmers trust to embrace
all of the farming communities of the
Mississippi valley. were taken at Abb
lene, Kan. Wednesday night. The new
association will be known as knights
of the SOIL and is designed to take the
place of the Farmers Alliance, which
has become extinct. This organization
will differ from it's predecessors in re-
spect to the object sought to be OBJ
tanned in effecting the organization.
Instead of devoting its time and en-
ergies TO a discussion and attempt at
settlement of the political questions of
the day. this association will be a bust
ness union of farmers. it's chief object
being to enable the farmers to hold
their grain and products during times
of low prices without paying interest
on a loan. The trusts secondary OBJ
jects are much like those of the alli-
ance. In that it aims to improve the
farmers condition in all respects.
