The demolition of the Stewart mar
BILE house Of New York is distinct re-
minder to the Boston Record of the
fact that the great merchant left moth
ing behind him to perpetuate his name.
He endowed no college, he founded no
art museum, he established no great
charity. He left his millions to be
fought over by those who came after
him with more or less claim to kinship,
but nothing went for the public good
His fame was built up on an aggrega-
CATION of dollars. Carnegie may have
learned something from him.

The docility of the Democratic SEN
ators in respect of the Spooner Philip
pine resolution and the Plat Cuban
amendment to the army bill is eX-
planned as purpose to placate oppo-
sition to the river and harbor bill, in
which many Democratic congressman
had lively interest. The measure
was finally defeated by Republican
agencies and Democratic virtue had
its reward. On this subject the New
York Sun says;
There is reason to believe that the
chief deterrent influence against the
obstruction that might have prevented
the enactment of the Spooner amend
ment and the Cuban declaration, the
two most important political measures
then pending, was the knowledge that
flibustering tactics directed at these
measures would kill the river and har-
Dor bill and other bills of similar por-
cine quality. Legitimately or illegit-
imately, but certainly adroitly and sue
cessfully, the majority managers held
| over these stern patriots the fear that
obstructive tactics on their part would
result in the failure of the river and
harbor bill, So they tactIy agreed to
the bargain by which the pork was TO
be secured at the sacrifice of principle.

that Queen Emma of the Netherlands,
now that she has married off her
daughter and taken up her abode in SOL
itsry grandeur at The Hague in the pal
ace formerly owned and occupied by the
late Kings sailor brother, Prince Hen
ny, is about to undergo very dangerous
operation, which she insisted on delay
ing until Queen Wilhelmina had been
comfortably established and provided
with good husband, but which can no
longer be put off. Indeed, it is ques-

any rate, she may be regarded as a no.

among whom, of course, is the widow

THE OLD WAY
OF Treating Stomach Trouble and
Indigestion, BarbarOuS and
Useless One.

We say the old way but really it
is the common and usual one at the
present time and many dyspeptics, and
physicians as well, consider the first
step in attempting to cure indigestion
Is to diet either by selecting certain
food and rejecting others or TO greatly
diminish the quantity of food usually
taken.
In other words the starvation plan.
is by many, supposed to be the first
essential in the cure of weak diges-
tion.
The almost certain failure of the
starvation cure for stomach trouble
has been proven time and again but
still the usual advice, when dyspep-
sia makes it's appearance, Is course
of dieting.
All this is radically wrong. 1t is
foolish and unscientific to recommend
dieting or starvation to person suf-
fering from dyspepsia because indiges-
tion itself starves every organ and
every nerve and fibre in the body.
What Is needed is abundant nutri-
ton, not less, and this means plenty
of good, wholesome, well-cooked food
and some natural digestive to assist
the stomach to digest it.
This is exactly the purpose for which
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are adapt
ed and this is the way they cure the
worst cases of stomach trouble
The patient eats plenty of whole
some food, and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets digests it for him.
And this is in accoNlhnce with, ma
ture and common sense because in this
way the whole system is nourished
and the overworked stomach rested,
because the tablets will digest the food,
whether the stomach works or not.
One of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
will digest 1900 grains of meat, eggs,
and similar food.
Any druggist will tell you that Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets Is remedy
of extraordinary value and probably is
the purest and safest remedy for stom-
ach troubles.

New York, Nov. 2O.--It is reported
cars patented by Cornelius Vanderbilt

iron and Steel company for imme-

The "tank car" is Mr.. Vanderbilt's
latest invention. 1t is modelled after
the design of his locomotive tender
that revolutioniZed the art Of building
in that line, and for which, with the
new locomotive invented by him, or
ders from sixteen railway companys
have been received. ..I
The car is especially adapted for the
transportation of oil or grain, and Is
technically termed tank car" 1t is
said to be lighter. cheaper, stronger
and more durable than any other used
for the same purposes in existence.
Merchandise rolling stock of metal
known as "commerclar' forms of iron
in construction of car and trucks, is
used In Mr.. Nanderbilt's invention,
avoiding, as far as possible, the con-
struction of costly machinery for the
manufacture of various parts of the
car.
Another of Mr.. yanderbilt's recent
inventions is a 50-ton steel coal car of
novel design, which is described for
the first time in the American Engin-

HUNTING STORY.
Game Receiving No Rest In
Vicinity Of Lake.
Especial Correspondence.)

Lake, Nov. 19.-Hunters by the
score, from Akron and Canton, scour-
ed the woods and swamps of Lake
last week, and succeeded in bagging
many rabbits and grouse. On Monday
especially the reports of fire arms were
many. A grocer and companion, Of
Akron, spent two days here and shot
40 quail, one fox squirrel, eight red
squirrels and 1S rabbits. Gray squr-
rels are very scarce, and it looks as
though they would soon become ex-
tinct In this neighborhood. Foxes
occasionally show themselves, but are
not much sought. Hunters, as a rule,
take the law into their own hands,
and do not even ask permission from
the owners of the land, over which
they roam, but the farmers are taking
matters good naturedly, but wish the
season We're over.

OFFENSE
Committed Long
After School
BY Boy, In Front of His
Home.
Teacher Punished Him and Par.
ent Made Objection.

A question was raised at the meet
ing of the School Board Tuesday
night, which, when settled, may de-
termine just where the jurisdiction of
the teacher over pupil ends, and
that of the parent begins. The son
of Mr.. George 7. Rankin was punish
ed. according to the statement of Mr..
Rankin, for an offense he committed
some two hours after the school had
been dismissed, and while the boy was
in front of his fathers home.
Mr.. Rankin protested against the
punishment being inflicted by the
teacher under the circumstances, and
embodied his protest in letter to
the Board. which was read at the
meeting Tuesday night. The letter
follows:
ITO the Board of Education-Gentle-
men: I hereby call your attention
| to what | deem case of improper
punishment, on the part of one of
your teachers, and request that the
matter be investigated by the Board

Rubber Prices Are Firmer This

A special from Springfield, o., to the
the following account of patent
granted Mr.. A. L. Holt, Il former Ak
ron man:
Notice of allowance by the U. 8.
Patent office is given Mr.. A. Il. Holt,
superintendent of the Victor Rubber
Co., for his method of producing rub
Der tires for vehicles. His attorney,
Mr.. Ii. A. Toulmin, states that the
application passed through the patent
office with unusual promptness; not
an objection being made, nor was
there another patent cited against it..
The four claims asked for. We're al
lowed. In these days of keen compe-
titiOn, the cost of making rubber tires
is an item which can not be lost sight
of. The labor item can be reduced
fully eighty per cent by this method
and the per diem production exceeded
by far, any method heretofore used.
1t is estimated that $6,000,O00 pounds
of the standard makes of tire will be
sold during the next twelve months
and most of them can be produced by
this method, resulting i'm a large saw
ing TO the manufacturer. Mr.. Holt
has tal-cn out a number of patents
on rubber tires; the present one, how
ever, is considered to be the most i'm
portant of them all. Application for

Regarding the new rubber factory
in which DR.. L. s. Sweitzer and Mr..
Stanton NJ. Anderson, of Akron. are
interested, at Beach City, the Press
of that village says:
'"The rubber factory has begun the
manufacture of rubber goods. AL
though not in shape as yet to employ
any great number of hands, they OK
pect gradually to increase the force,
so that in few weeks quite number
will have regular employment in the
plant. The washing Of the raw smok-
ed rubber is now going on. This is
the only machine that has yet been
operated on the first floor; as soon
as this washed rubber is dried other
machines will start. Soft rubber goods
are being made on the third floor,
some of which has already been ship
ped out. The lighting of the build
ing by electricity is now being ar
ranged for, and in short time there
will be electric lights in Beach City,"
