fever which prevented her from sleeping.
DR.. Rixey lanced the felon twice and
gave her some relief in that way. Mrs.
Mckinley bore it all very bravely and
urged continually that the program at
the cities and towns en- route should not
be modified in any particular on her ac-
count.
1t was hoped that the rest at Del
Monte would do her good, but she slept
little at night, and in the morning she re-
luctantly agreed to go to San Francisco
at once. The President and Mrs. Nc
Kinley left at 1890 o'clock for San Fran
cisco on special train, consisting of a
locomotive and the combination baggage
and smoker Atlantic and the private car
Olympia. The entire equipment was
made up from the presidential special
train. The run was made in three and
one-half hours.
DR.. Rixey said Mrs. McKinley's condi-
ton was not alarming. She is worn out
by her long journey and it was consid-
cred wise to take her to San Francisco,
where she could have proper nursing and
where specialists could be consulted. But,
a correspondent says, while the physician
in attendance talks thus reassuringly. it
is believed that her condition is much
more serious than he is willing to admit

A Miracle Explained.

Bryant, Mo-, May 1S.-The sensa-
tiOnal cure of Mrs. NJ. A. Goss, of this
place, has sent ripple of excitement
all over Douglas County, and Dodd's
Kidney Pills, the remedy in question:
are receiving thereby the greatest adj
vertisement any medicine has ever had
in this State.
To satisfy the many inquiries which
she finds it impossible to answer by let
ter, Mrs. Goss has sent the following
statement of her case to the st. Louis
Globe-DemOcrat:
Il did not think l could live a day
and suffer, as have lived and suffered
for months with Sciatica and Rheuma-
tism. l used baths and liniments of
all kinds. Two physicians treated me,
one of them for two months. Nothing
helped me in the least. l never slept
more than ten Or fifteen minutes at a
time. | was bedfast and had to lie on
one side all the time. l used to wish
for death, to deliver me from such tor
ture.
"A friend suggested Dodd's Kidney
Pills, and after | had used them a
week / began to improve, and in about
four weeks l could sit up in bed. A
few days later l walked quarter Of
Il mile and back. l now do all my own
cooking and house work. The pain
has entirely left me, and l am a well
woman. / have taken altogether six
teen boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills.
Dodd's Kidney Pills saved my life.
MRS. NJ. A. GOSS."

Goss. and hear her wonderful story.

THE MAINE WILL FLOAT.
Unique Method to BE Employed in
Raising the BattIeship.

Raising the BattIeship.
Newton f Chamberlain, who is en-
gagged in raising the wreck of the battle
ship Maine in Havana harbor, says that
the vessel whose destruction precjpitated
the war with Spain is not as badly dam
aged as has been generally supposed, and
that she will be ailoat and ready for
business again some time next fall.
The proposed manner of raising the
ship is unique. In order TO float her it
will be necessary to first build a dam
around the battleship and pump out the
water. When the water has all been re-
moved from the wreck, the hole in her
bow will be repaired. Then when the
water is turned in again she will rise 10
the surface and will be tOwed into the
Havana docks for complete overhauling.
The machinery in the Maine does not
seem 10 have been damaged at all. Steel
does not rust until exposed TO the air. As
fast as the water is removed the ma
chinery viii be covered with oil 10 pre-
vent corrosion.
When the ship sunk she had on board
about 100000 worth OF ammunition, and
as this is Theoretically sealed in the
vaults, Mr.. Chamberlain does not appre-
bend that il viii be at all damaged 1t
viii take the best part OF the summer 10
complete the dam, hGt within two m1nths
after il IS finished the wreck viii be
atlOat. All the machinery necessary for
the work is on the ground.

President McKinley's tour OF the West

cial train bearing President and Mrs. Nc
Kinley, Miss Barber, DIR. Rixey, Secre-
tary Cortelyou and Henry I. Scott and
Mrs. Scott arrived in San Francisco al
4 o'clock Sunday afternoon from Del
Monte. Mrs. Mckinley was taken there
by the President in advance of the regu-
lar program that she might obtain COM
plete rest. Upon arrival the President
and party were driven to the residence
of Henry L. Scott.
Mrs. Mckinley has not been well since
the long journey began and the trip mas
fatigued her very much. Her condition
became such that both the President ana
DR.. Rixey considered it wise to take her
to San Francisco, where she could nave
complete rest for q few days at MT
SCOTS residence and where DR.. Hirsch-
felter, Mr.. SCOTS physician, could be
consulted if necessary. The cabinet and
other members of the party carried out
the program as arranged, arriving in San
Francisco ON Tuesday.
The illness of Mrs. Mckinley cast q
shadow on the other members of the par

was talk at first of abandoning the en-
tire schedule between there and San
Francisco, but Mrs. Mckinley especially
requested that the plans of the party

Wasted Tower Treasures.

Down in the crypt below the White
tower of the Tower of London lie, I'M

cient and valuable stained-glass win
dows, and there they will probably con'

are stirred to repentance. The City

far as can be judged, placed in the
chapel windows by Edward Ill.
Thence they were removed to the Ar
mory house, and when that building
was not long ago rebuilt they were cast
into the crypt by an irreverent war

Western Canada's December Weather
Equal to that of May in Mime


sofa.
To the Editor-Thomas Regan and
c.. Collins, of Eden Valley, Mimi, went
out to Western Canada last December
as delegates, to look over the grazing
and grain lands that are being offered
at such low prices and reasonable
terms. This is what they say:
I'VE arrived in Calgary about the
Goth December, and although we had
left winter in Minnesota and Manitoba,
we were surprised to finds beautiful
warm weather at this point, quite equal
to what we have in May in Minnesota.
There was no snow nor trace of win
ter to be seen, and the climate was
really splendid. Horses, cattle and
sheep were running out, in prime con-
ditiOn, with plenty of feed on the prai-
RE, and really better than that Of ours
stabbed in the South We are impress
ed with this country as one Of the
finest mixed farming countries we have
ever seen. The immense tracts offer
tile lands well sheltered and abundant
~ watered leave nothing to be desired.
Leaving Alberta, we returned east
and visited the Yorkton district in
Assiniboia. We drove out about ten
miles at this point, and were highly
pleased with the splendid samples Of
grain we were able to see, wheat yield
ing twenty-five bushels, oats sixty
bushels. Roots were also good speci-
mems From what we have seen, we
have decided to throw in our lot with
the Yorktoners-satisfied that tits part
of the country will furnish good OPP
portunities for any one anxious to make
the best of a really good country. Any
agent of the Canadian government
whose advertisement appears else
where in the columns of your paper,
will give you full particulars of the
new districts being opened out this
year in Assiniboia and Saskatchewan.

Peruna is a specific for all catarrhal dis
eases. 1t acts quickly and benefcially upon

Catarrh is catarrh wherever located.
Catarrh is essentially the same everywhere.
The remedy that will cure catarrh in one
situation will cure it in all situations.
If you do not derive prompt and satisfae~
