 It tIs a Rescue from Suffering and Death Effected by
PAINE'S Celery Compound TIVE GREAT spRIHe MEDICINE.
MIR. ALFRED BROWN, 4 Prominent and Popular Citizen Says: After the Use of raine's Gel cry Compound I Am Now in
 tho Best of Health"

The greatest of modern physicians. Prof Edward E. Phelps. M. D., LI1. D., after years os long practice and close scientfhc study, gave to suffering and diseased men and women his marvellous, life giving pre- scription. with the conviction and positive knowledge that it had peculiar virtues and ample powers to cure. after the ter rible verdict 'fncurable" was uttered by the medical practitioner.
 Thousands of the strongest testirnonialf lf from the best known and most reliable men and women of our country fully sustain the claims made by Dr. Phelps re- sarding his incomparable Paine's Celery Compound.
 one of the most convincing proofs fur nished comes recently from gentleman widely known in the capital city of the Dominion of Canada We refer to Mir. Al fred Brown. 91 O'Connor St, Ottawa, Ont. MT. Browns letter fully demon strates the fact that the greatest suf- ferer may cast of his or her burden of disease and become well. strong. and happy. It proves too. that the great medicine maintains more firmly thar ever before its unrivaied place in the es- timation of people of wealth and social standing as we'll as with the masses. Mir. Brown says
 q acknowledge with thankfulness and pleasure the fact that I have been cured of a very painful illness of eight years standing by use of Paine's Celery Com pound l had, during the years of my (ilIness, tried almost all the advertised medicines without deriving any good re- isults. I was also treated by several of the best doctors of this city, hoping to lind that one of thena. at least. would un- derstand my case
 "I was getting worse. and was told WAS jneurable. I was indeed in a critical condition. I could not go from the house alone. as I was liable to sudden collapse I tried hospital treatment. but no relief or good results came to me. I could not sIeep: anything that I ate increased my agonies: I was extremely weak. restless tired and Respondent: was obliged to walk about with my hands pressed firmly into my left side to ease my pains; my feet and hands were cold continually; had in- cIlnation to vomit. had prbfuse, cold sweats. quick breathing. and would he tracked with pain for hours at a time.
 After the regular use of Paine's Gel cry Compound for time. am now In the best of health, have good appetite. and can use any kind of food. Thank God am my old self once more. all through the nse of Paines Celery Compound" 1

FATAL COLLISION.

Pemnsyivania Filler Crashes Into 2
 Freight Wreck, killing Two.
 ALTOONA, Pa, Oct. 13.--An express train ran into wrecked freight train near Barre, three miles west of Pe- tersburg. The passenger engineer and the freight brakeman were instantly killed. and the passenger fireman was probably fatally injured
 An eastbound freight train broke in two, and the parts coming together with great force fourteen cars were broken and overturned across all the tracks. At the same moment the fast train running east about fifty miles an hour came along on the adjoining tracks and crashed into the Wreckage. The locomotive was completely strip ped and postal car, baggage car and four coaches containing 120 passengers were derailed and broken. The wrecked freight cars immediately caught fire, and three were burned. The four Pull- man cars remained on the track, and the occupants were uninjured.
 The postal clerks, baggage men and passengers in the coaches were all se- verely shaken up, but no one received more than slight bruises except one lady who had her ankle sprained. All the passengers proceeded east on the next train.

CAR STRIKE SETTLED
Governors Ultimatum Is Ac-
 cepted Tn New Orleans.
TROLLEY LINES AGAIN RUNNING.
For Two Weeks All the City Roads Had Been Completely Tied Up. A Partial Gain For the
 Striking WOrkmen.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. B. - The street car strike begun by the dissatis- fed employees of the New Orleans here, the carmen's union on a secret ballot unanimously accepting the gov ernor's ultimatum. The car lines re- gumed operations this morning.
 The basis of settlement is that the men will go back to work at 20 cents, ten hours to be a days work, with a minimum of seven and a half hours a day, no discrimination to be made against any Of the men under charges and as many to be taken back as are needed for the operation of the com pany's lines.
 There is widespread rejoicing in the city over the settlement of the strike, which began Sunday morning two weeks ago and has been the most effec- tive tieup attempted in this city. Not a single passenger has been carried on a car since it began, and not q passenger car has got more than five blocks from a barn.
 The credit for settlement is largely due to W. s. Parkerson, who labored indefatigably all night trying to con vince the strikers that they could not hope for anything better and that they could not prevail against the militia massed here.
 United States Senator Foster, Gov ernor Heard and Mayor Capdevielle were all instrumental in some degree in bringing about the final resulto

noyance Of O4le4gSe to the communi- ties inlwhich they live and from which they must necessarily derive a measure of their business success and prosperity.
 In view of these facts neither pub lie officials nor those engaged in cru sades against smoke should carry their measure to the extremes that color them with the spirit of persecu- tion. On the other hand, it is equal ly incumbent upon the citizen who is making smoke. to bestir himself and use every effort to cease violating the law.
 For the benefit of those who. will ingly or unwillingly, are making smoke, I may say that experience has shown that in most cases violations of the smoke ordinances are attrib- uted to either one or all of the fol- lowing causes: Careless or heavy stoking. By this is meant the improp- CT firing of a furnace at too infre- quent intervals and in such quanti- ties that the furnaces cannot be pre- vented from emitting large quanti- ties of dense black smoke.
 Inferior quality of fuel. Where fuel of this kind is used only the most careful and intelligent stolSing of the furnace will prevent the mak- ing of dense smoke.
 Furnaces not properly equipped with smoke-preventing devices: or if so equipped. failure on the part of the engineer to see to. it that the de- vice is used.
 In Chicago the spirit of cooperation on the part of business men is grow ing; and with the result that the fight. if fight it may be called against the smoke nuisance. is now more of an educational crusade in character than ever before. There is l less smoke in the air now than there was at any time during the past five years, and that in the face of con stant increase in the number oi power plants throughout the city an6 corresponding increase in the con sumption of soft coal. There are al present nearly 1000 boilers of the high and low pressure types in ths city, and these, during the year 19O( 1 consumed 5,667, 016 tons of bitumin ous coal, an increase of over 1000, 900 tons used in 1896.
Waterbury Democrat., 1902-10-13

the running of their plants observe the usual plain and simple directions of firing them in such manner as to. make little or no smoke at all. It has been demonstrated, times with out number, that careless stoking has been the sole cause for smoking chim- neys; and that with the discharge of careless, lazy or ignorant firemen, and their places filled by careful and competent men. there has followed an immediate and satisfactory abate- ment of the nuisance.
 The material progress which has been made in the solution of the problem, has been wholly along the lines Of scientific furnace construc- tion, together with proper installa- tion of plants as to their capacity, boiler room, stack, requirements, etc. It is gratifying, too, to be able to state that the achievements so re- corded have not operated against the use of the cheaper grades of bi- luminous coal, but on the contrary, decidedly to their advantage. For it will be conceded that the economic side of the question is all important,  and that any device which does not tend to lessen the cost of operating plant must fall short of the stand ard which certainly lies within the province of mechanical science to att tain.
 Glancing for moment at what may be termed the moral phase of the smoke problem. it may be as su1ned, think, that few citizens are malicious and willfu1 violatorsI of the smoke ordinance. The average yio- lator is both willing and anxious to abate the nuisance, provided only that he can do so at no greatly iD creased expense of conducting h1s business. In many instances it vii be found that such offenders are mer of large public spirit, seeking them selves to obey the laws and unwilling to do anything that may cause ar
