A Mountain of Sugar.
Before manv davs there will

Before many days there will be
enough sugar piled up in one
stack at the msmoth car repair
shed at the railroad shops in this
city to supply the entire demand
of the ''fudge" industry in the
State of iowa for some time.
The facts connected with the
large shipment of the saccharine
crystals and it's consequent stor-
age in Missouri Valley for a
period of several weeks are rather
hard to obtain. 1t appears that
among the numerous other pecul-
lar conditions to be brought about
by the sharp competition among
the various railroad systems of
the country is the custom which
has been in vogue for some time
of the railroad companies making
special rates on sugar at certain
times in the year and then guar
anteeing to properly care for and
store the sugar until the time
comes for delivering it to the
iobbers. In years past the @. &
NV: has not Jared 50 we'll along
this line Of business as have some
of the other roads, but recently
the agents of this progressive
company got wind of a large chip
ment to be made from an Eastern
factory with the ultimate OUT
come the North Western company
was the successful competitor.
Report says the sugar is the pro-
duct of New Jersey concern, and
is consigned to various jobbers in
this section of the country. IN
til acquisitions are made for the
sugar by the jobbers who placed
orders for different amounts to be
delivered at different dates, tho
entire shipment which requires
about fifty box cars to transport
and weighs about two million,
pounds, will be stored in quarters
recently made for it at the car re-
pair department at the shops here.
The first consignment consists Of
labout twenty car loads.

Letter From A. j. Laurie.

Mr. Fl b Coe, OF this city, This
week received a letter from Mr. A
j Laurie who formerly worked in
the railroad shops in this city but
who moved to Kimberley, South
Africa, about two years ago.
From the general tone of his let
ter it is apparent he is feminist"
the English in the present Eng
lish- Boer struggle. A portion of
the letter follows:
KIMBERLEY. South Africa, Dec.
81, 1900 III b Coe, Esq. Esteemed
Neighbor:: y y About
that date we were cut off from the
outer world by the Beers, who
have once more entered Cape
Colony and are still in the Colony
and are likely tn remain for some
time to come, although the limo
between here and Cape Town is
RAINING, after a fashion, but travel
is prohibited by the military and
supplies for the scivilian popula-
ton have been practically sus-
pended, and Great Britain's 30 or
go day job seems as far from be-
ing settled rs ever. Twelve more
districts in Cape Colony were put
under martial law last week. This
| think will have tendency to
complicate matters. 1t seems as
though the Beers go where they
please and 10 as they please.
When they get short of provisions
they go out and capture British
convoy, and | am of the opinion
that when Great Britain feels in
clined to try and steal another
country she will look before she
leaps.
| don't suppose you get q true
account of this war. We do not
get anything true ourselves, il
only leaks out little at time
about British reverses, but our
rag or paper is full up with Boer
defeats. Lord Roberts has gone
home. That is good thing too.
IL would have been better had he
never came to this country or had
been hung as soon as he landed
Lord kltchner assumes command
He is mora brutal than Lord Rob

be very bad, but catching usually
comes before hanging. In this

Entire Business Portion Of
Rodes Licked Up BY the
Fire Fiend Early THIS
Morning.

|
Early this morning at a time
when no one was around the store.
a fire started in the building
which G. u. Deur, of this city,
erected at Rodes several months
ago, and since which time has
been occupied by Roden's general
merchandise store, aud with such
rapidity cid the flames progress
the entire structure which was a
two story affair was but mass Of
smoldering ruins within less than
twenty-five minutes from the time
Nthe fire was discovered. There is
considerable OF mystery con-
nected with the fire. For several
months past Lou Rodep, son of
W. L. Roden, has had charge of
the store, living with his family
in the second story of the build
ing. This morning about z o'clock
Mr. Roden unlocked the store and
built a fire in the large stove
which is used in heating the store
room. After kindling the fire Mr.
Roden went back upstairs and
commenced eating his breakfast.
just when the fire started is uu-
known but in all probability had
been burning some time before
being discovered, as the first
notice of the fire was given when.
the flames burst from the windows
on the lower floor. Being a wood
en- structure the building burned
readily and soon communicated to
the second floor of the building.
The fire gained such rapid head
way that the Roden family we're
able to save none Of their effects;
a trunk full of clothes thrown
from one of the upper windows
was the only thing of any value
saved from the flames. Farmers
living near the store hurried to
the scene of the fire as soon as
possible but their efforts to- save
any of the contents of the store
were futile. The Rodes post of
tice has been quartered in the
Roden store for some time past
and MIR Roden succeeded in saw.
ing a small portion of the Letters
before the fumes had entirely
destroyed the section of the build
ing in which the office was located.
just what the loss entaiIed by
the fire will be is unknown at
present, but it is said Mr. Rodents
loss will be quite heavy as he car
ried an extensive stock, Mr.
Deur's loss on the building is
covered by insurance amounting
to $3.50. It was reported on the
streets this morning that quite a
sum of money which Mr. Roden
kept at the store was consumed by
flames. Those interested were
unable to state this forenoon
whether the business will be re-
sumed or not.

Will Erect Two Modern
Pumping Stations.

/ O4AplaS otdIlOuS.
So soon as the weather permits
the Chicago & North Western
railroad company will put a force
of men at work in this city max
ing improvements in the COM
pany's holdings here which rail-
road men claim are but the
harbinger of improvements of a
far more extensive nature to be
made in the very near future.
The work in question will be that
LOT the erection of two new pump
ling stations which will be used to
supply water for the company's
engines. The engineer who will
have charge of the work, spent
some time here last week making
the preliminary calculations. The
company will sink new wells near
the depot and the water will be
elevated by pumps operated by
gasoline engines. Water plugs
will be installed at each end of
the depot and the engines will be
Supplied with water while stand
ing at the depot. This new i'm

brought about from the fact much
valuable time has been lost at
Logan and various other stations
along the line where it would be
necessary for the trains to stop
but minute were it not for the
time lost in taking water.

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civ
ilized world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never Thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, and they
seldom heard of appendicitis, nervous
prostrasion or heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of un-
digested food, regulate the action of
the liver, stimulate the nervous and
organic action of the system, and that
is all they took when feeling dull and
bad with headaches and other aches.
