A Conflict.

Upon the advent Of the new council
a few weeks ago, the appointment Of
Grant McMahan as fire warden was
made, The warden at once issued
notices to stop the promiscous burn
ing of paper and rubbish within two
hundred feet of any building. EARLY
in the week Attorney A. j. Thomas
decided to do a little cleaning up
about his premises and as a conse-
quence fired the refuse. AS the story
goes Warden McMahan asked him to
desist and eXtinguish the fire when
he was promptly told it was none of
his business. The warden then sent
in fire alarm and the department
responded promptly eXtinguishing the
blaze. Mr.. Thomas was then cited to
appear before Judge Van Blarcom and
show cause why he should not obey
the laws as laid down by the city or
dinances. A stay to Wednesday next
was granted when the hearing will
take place.
The affair has caused considerable
comment and is being discussed from
all sides. Mr.. Thomas makes the
statement that the ordin.
ance is no good, an admission not
much to his credit as he made it him
self in his capacity as city attorney
Mr.. McMahan has been given full
authority and will see whether the
ordinance is good or not. We shall
see what we shall see next Wednes
day.

The Midway, claimed

Hemisphere. The Midway, claimed
to be the greatest in the world, has
more than mile of frontage. The
restaurant features are perfect and
the Exposition. so far as human in
genuity and the wise expenditure of
money can accomplish such work, is
complete to the last detail.
| Buffalo, too, is an ideal city for an
exposition, having summer climate
that is tempered by the breezes from
Lake Erie and, therefore, the most
comfortable in which one may enjoy
his summer outing. The people of
the city have prepared themselves in
most ample way to entertain mil
lions of guests during the Exposition.
The private dwellings throughout the
city have been thrown open to the
public and. in view of the ample &C
commodatiOns, very moderate rates
will prevail so that every visitor may
nave such accommodations as he is
willing to pay for. He may have the
palatial quarters of the fine hotels, or
the quiet restfulness of IL pleasant
home. The average rate for accom-
modatlons near the Exposition
grounds is about S1.O0 per night for
lodging, with 25c to SOC added for
breakfast, it being expected that
guests will take their other meals
upon the Exposition grounds. A
number of responsible companies have
organized to find accommodations for
visitors at any price they may desire
to pay. The offices of these compan-
les are centrally located and this
system of management promises to
bring very satisfactory results to all
concerned,

Halden For State Auditor.

North Branch Review; Should Bob
Dunn be nominated for governor Gwo
years hence: and it appears his nomi-
nation will be necessary to preserve
the supremacy Of the Republican
party in state politics, there'll be
some one needed to fill the state
auditors chair. The Office requires Il
man who knows every kink in the tax
laws. There's one man in the state
who does, and he is Odin Halden, the
present auditor of ST. Louis county
If there is one man in the state who
will administer the tax laws without
fear or favor, it's the same Odin. and
his record as auditor of st. Louis
county is all that is necessary to con-
vince any voter that he would be the
right man for the state auditor.

Exposition Opened

| The pan-American Exposition was
thrown open to the public on We'd
nesday May l. The Common Council
of the City of Buffalo had declared
that day civic holiday and the en-
tire city turned out in recognition of
this signal event which celebrates
the Centennial of the founding of the
city and which is the first great ex-
position to be devoted exclusively to
the interests Of PanAmerica.
A now booklet, just issued for the
Exposition, tells a very charming
story Of its history and creation and
describes the beautiful city in which
the festival has been developed and
brought to completion. The booklet
| is embellished with many illustra-
tions, Including twelve colored plates
of Exposition buildings and views
These will be sent free to applicants
by the Bureau of Publicity so long as
the edition lasts. All the principal
buildings of the Exposition have
been completed for some time. Some
of the afterthoughts, such as State
buildings. will not be done till about
May 20. which is to be Dedication
Day.
Everyone who has visited the
grounds of the Pan-American EXPOSE
tion during the last few months has
been astonished hey ond expression
upon beholding the magnitude
and the exceptional beauty and nov
city of the enterprise. 1t is very
much larger than people generally
have supposed, and it is apparent that
the $4,000, 900, which is the approx
mate cost OF the Exposition as a
whole, has been expended most
wisely and with the happiest results
The particular novelty that is to be
noted in this Exposition is discovered
in the fact that in it's exterior aspect

expositions, The buildings are ar

A GREAT TRUTH.

All organized living things, whether be-
longing to the animal or vegetable king.
dom contain within themselves the germs
of death and decay.
Germs of disease are often generated
within the human system through imper-
feet digestion of food, producing various
poisons which scientists have denominated
bfoWdfHes. A stomach weakened by abuse,
gorged with over eating or over burdened
with hot bread, too rich or greasy foods or
those too highly seasoned, becomes weak
ened and fails to thoroughly digest the
food. A heavy, sodden mass is accuinu-
lated in the stomach TO ferment as the first
step in its decay, giving off foul gasses TO
distend the stomach, and poison the blood,
until it becomes thin, weak and lacking in
the red corpuscles so necessary to perfect
health
The over distended stomach presses upon
the heart, and the latter organ is also dis
turbed through sympathy, the same system
of nerves being distributed to both organs.
Thus palpitation and irregular action of the
heart with its attendant shortness of breath,
result, and in time, disease of the heart
itself is established.
The gases and other poisons generated
from undigested fermenting and decay
ing food in the stomach becloud the
brain, causing headaches, and pain in the
eyes.
Being absorbed into the blood these poi
sons reach every part and organ of the sys-
TEN. The kidneys are thereby poisoned,
causing Brights disease and diabetes. Fill
tering through the skin troublesome skin
diseases often show themselves.
Every organ and every nerve, depending
as they do for their nourishmcnt and
renewal upon the stomach, weak digestion
shows itself not alone in loss of appetite
and flesh, but also in nervousness, debility,
bad complexion and many other derange-
fnents.

tones and regulates the stomach stimu-
lates the digestive juices; invigorates the
torpid liver promotes intestinal strength;
clears bilious poisons and diseased germs
out of the circulation; gives the blood
