The Interocean Canal matter is likely
TO go over until the short session of the
present congress- Senator Hanna has
been in favor of the Daren route but of
late has abandoned it and is preparing to
make an open and determined fight in
favor of the acceptance of the French
proposition to transfer to this Govern
ment the uncompleted Panama Canal
for $40, 100000. He intends, it is said,
to make minority report from the { ON
mittee on Interoceanic Canals for the
adoption of the Spooner amendment to
the Hepburn Nicaragua canal bill and
persistently advocate it. Mr.. Hanna de-
clares that Senator Morgan in his zeal
for the adoption of the Nicaragua route
and in his precipitate haste to bring the
Hepburn bill out of the committee has
imposed upon the Senate, the country,
the members of the Committee on Can
ais, and Secretary Hay. In the mean
time the governments of the countries
of the two routes are asking further
concessions from orr Government and
this will have tendency to retard the
opening of the canal.

st. Louis is to have so story build.
ing if plans do not miscarry. This sky
scraper is to be used for worlds fair
projects. The first IL stories of the build.
ing are intended to be permanent, but
that portion of the building towering
above would be of temporary
character as worlds fair at
traction. The proposed building
would serve multiplicity of
purposes. Great department stores
would occupy the lower floors and there
would be theatres and music halls so
high up in the air that the rumble from
the streets below could not be heard.
Meanwhile a Chicago scientific man
sounds note of warning in regard to
these iron frame buildings. He states
that corrosion of the iron is continually
going on to the extent that before many
years they are liable to collapse. If
he is correct in his premises, the iron
building situation is liable to become
serious.

The strike of teamsters, freight hand
lers, etc. in Boston has come to a favor
able end. Friday last saw the be-
ginning of this end and now affairs are
moving along practically as they did be-
fore the strike was ordered, and most of
the men are at work at their old posi-
, lions as though nothing unusual had
happened. A large sum of money was
lost to labor and business by the strike
amounting to several hundred thousand
dollars. Gov. Crane was largely instru-
mental in settling the difficulty and is
entitled to great credit for the wisdom,
patience and ability displayed as peace
maker. Mayor Collins and others rend-
cred valuable aid but Governor Crane
was the trusted leader who did more
than any other man to solve the perplex-
ing problem that entered into the strain
ed relations of the Boston strike.

An article we used last week, copied
from another paper, stated that advance
in fire insurance rates does not apply to
buildings outside of hydrant protection.
This was incorrect, the increase does
apply to such buildings. The error was
not ours, but 1t was an error on our part
to use it. Many other papers did the
same. We had lots of company. Too

"a neighbor ran in with a bottle OF
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy when my son was
suffering with severe cramps and was
given up as beyond hope by my regular
physician, who stands high in his pre-
fesson. After administering three
doses of it, my son regained conscious
ness and recovered entirely within TWEEN
ty-four hours" says Mrs. Mary Haller,
of Mt. Crawford, Va. This Remedy is
for sale by all druggists.

Cannot Get Central.

MI. John A. Blue, farmer three
miles east of Flora. Ind, is a patron
of the Flora and Bringhurst Telephone
company. Six months ago he had a
telephone placed in his residence, but
to this day he has never been able to
ring central. The lineman has tested
the telephone and found 1t all right;
members of the family or any one else
except Mr.. Blue could ring in and get
1 response, but when Mr.. Blue took
hold of the crank and gave 1t turn
the other end of the line was as dead
as the proverbial door nail. Various
tests have been made to prove that
this condition really exists.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1902-04-01
BETTER THAN PILLS.

The question has been asked. AIN
what way are Chamberlain's Stomach &
Liver Tablets superior to pills?" Our
answer is: They are easier and more
pleasant to take, more mild and gentle
in effect and more reliable as they can
always be depended upon. Then they
cleanse and invigorate the stomach and
leave the bowels in natural condition,
while pills are more harsh in effect and
their use is often followed by constipa-
ton. For sale by all druggists.

BIG FIRE
RAVAGES
GUNNISON

Gunnison was visited by very
disastrous conhagration Sunday
morning, which destroyed one large
clothing and dry goods store, one
grocery, one meat market. one
saloon, one cigar store, one tailor
shop and one barber shop. The
fire was discovered at about $3.50 a.
m. in Hards' saloon, its origin ap-
parently being from a defective
hue.
The fact that one of the most
available fire plugs was found fro
zen and that the others contained
much slush from not being flooded
regularly was such an impediment
at the start that the fire assumed
large proportions before any streams
of water could be played upon it
effectively.
The estimated losses are about as
follows:
John Latimer, store buildings,
loss $4,000, insurance, $4,000.
John Allen, clothing and dry
goods, loss $4,000, insurance, S6,-
600.
S. B. Clark, grocery, total loss,
$1,000, insurance, $1,000.
M. g. Walker, meat market, loss
$4,000, no insurance.
Robt. Hards, saloon, loss 81 800,
no insurance.
Mrs. Costalin, saloon building,
loss 81 200, no insurance.
L. Wienberger, cigar store, loss
$1,000, insurance $500.
Frank Anderson, barber shop,
loss 500, fully insured.
M. Schmitz, tailor shop, loss
81 1000, insurance, $500.
Travellers Insurance company,
loss on two buildings, $500, fully
insured.
Block g. Hurley, goods stored in
Schmitz' place, loss $500, no in
surance.
E. e. Mueller. jeweler, and Col
Inns q Mccormick, bakers and gro
GERS, sustained considerable loss in
damage by fire and water to their
buildings and stocks.

Japanese Empress Fine Looking.

The empress of Japan is just about
a year older than the emperor, al
though she seems younger. She il
rather fine looking from a japanese
standpoint, being short and petite. She
now dresses in European style, al
though when first married she wore
Japanese clothes and blacked her
teeth, as did all good Japanese wives
thirty years ago. Today her teeth are
as white as those of any American
beauty and her clothes are of the lat
est Paris fashion.
