Two modern transportation devices
have been invented by Berlin en-
gineer. who has constructed trolley
automobile line, similar TO that ex-
hibited at the Paris exposition, at
Ederswalde, a small city near the Ger
man capital. In this system the auto
mobile receives its motive power from
an overhead wire, by means of troll
ley. which is connected with the auto
mobile by a movesble cable. This al
lows the vehicle to turn out at any
place on the road. The line has been
favorably inspected by experts. and
the system is expected to meet with
general favor in Germany.

A Chicago dispatch says: The Su-
preme Lodge, Knights OF Pythias,
which has been in session here con-
sidering charges of mismanagement
by the board OF control of the En-
dowment Rank, decided that the most
expedient way OF meeting the def
cheney Of $500. 900 in the treasury was
to raise the insurance rate to the max
imum prescribed by the national fra
teral congress. If in this way money
is not quickly enough forthcoming, it
is likely that q special assessment Of
fifty cents will be put on every men,
Der Of the order for the benefit of the
Endowment Rank. This latter move
would speedily raise $3.50, 900.
To ..jslf on record as respon-
sible for sll debts of the Endowment
Rank, the Supreme Lodge passed the
following resolution:
Resolved, by the Knights of Pyth-
las, That said Supreme Lodge recog-
nizes not only its legal. but also its
moral and fraternal responsibilities to
stand behind and protect every bene-
fetal certificate issued by and in force
in the Endowment Rank of the
Knights OF Pythias, and we hereby
pledge to every holder of such certif-
Gates all such legislation as may be
needed to fully protect the holders Of
such certificates and produce full and
prompt payment of all claims due
thereon"
"The action OF the committee, said
Supreme Chancellor Fethers. after
adjournment, "will give new life to
the Endowment Rank place it upon a
better footing than in the past. All
possible safeguards have now been
placed around the rights Of the holders
OF beneficiary certificates and the
future is OF the brightest"

essson Appeal.
The Appeal has received a circular
letter from Sioux City, Iowa, setting
forth the advantage to be gained by
investing in the California King Gold
Mines, with a capital stock Of 1,000,-
900 shares at s. per share and non AS
sessable. The scheme is big one on
paper and is headed by Senator John
P. Jones, who is not only the Presi-
dent Of the company but is director
and furnishes testimonial that makes
one itch to own about half of the mine.
There is a list OF millionaires and
United States Senators in the line Of
directors that makes one wonder that
the common people are invited to par
tieipate in the immense dividends
that are to flow from the investment.
Mr.. Talbot, the corresponding secre-
tsry, advises the public to get in on
the ground floor at once as he assures
them that the stock will reach SIS per
share within two years. Since the
people have disposed OF their holdings
in the Comstock at various prices, it
would be a wise scheme to take the
profits they made there and invest in
the California King Gold Mines, as a
number of ex-Comstockers are num-
bered in the list OF directors.

INDIGESTION.

Many things you fear about your seofin- ach cannot be true. If you have had in digestion or dyspepsia for years it Is na- tural to believe that the stomach ltseN IS diseased. It is only the functions Of the stomach that are impaired. This is the whole trouble in a vast majority of cases and the proof can be had by trying pr. Harter's Iron Tonic
 Your stomach has many things to do. and failure to do any one of them leads to imperfect digestion. The stomach gets its nutriment and its digestive fluids rom the blood If the blood Is impure or lacks the rght proportion of strength producing iron, the whole body suffers from kind of breaking down process.
 To restore health you must start at the source of life itself-the blood-and through that vital fluid build up the stom- ach and other vital organs.
 Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic has cured thou sands of cases of indigestion and dyspep- sIa every year for the past forty-hve years. It is the one remedy you can take with certainty of immediate improvement and a sure cure.
 It Is prepared with scientific accuracy and many eminent physicians prescribe Il constantly. Faithful use of it will en- able you to digest your food as perfectly as you ever have. Prepared only by The pr. Harter Medicine Co.,. Dayton. Ohio Sold everywhere. '.. 2l

MONTGOMERY THEATRE
Delightful Production of Opera "Mikado" by Amateur Musicians.
 Will Be Repeated.

Amateur musicians of Montgomery, under the direction of MT. Dan Pack ard. a professional opera singer and comedian, gave highly creditable per formance of Gilbert & Sullivan's opera. "Mikado." at the Montgomery Theatre last night.
 The performance was given for the benefit of the Working Woman's Home and as a large audience witnessed the production, the receipts were no doubt gratifying to the managers of the in= stitution.
 It is seldom that an amateur per- formance is given with so much spirit and so much care as that which char acterized the production last night. Usually the singers are applauded be- cause applause is regarded as the cor rect things when ones neighbors are striving to please. But the applause of the singers in the "Mikado" last night was spontaneous and came from an appreciative audience-an audience which understood good music and stage art.
 Mir. Packard displayed excellent judgment in the selection of the cast which was as follows:
