BOUND TO CROSS THE SEA.
NJ. saBfos-Dnmonf Not Discouraged
Bg the Loss of His BaIIoon-sefs
60 work on Another.

NJ Snntos-D umont is already at
work preparing his plans for the re-
building of his airship wrecked on
bis last attempt TO cross the Mediter-
ranean, says New York Journal and
American dispatch from Monaco. IF
forts TO grapple his motor, the sink
ing of which was the most serious
loss of the disastrous attempt, have
all failed, and he has ordered a new
and more powerful one.
That he will ultimately cross the
sea IN regarded there as a certainty,
for only his death will stop him.
Though he was near TO death from
drowning, from being smothered in
the si1ken folds of his collapsed bal
loon, and from being burned 20 death
by the ignitiDg Of the oil he uses for
fuel, his peril seems 70 have made
the least possible impression on him.
The peril TO which he was exposed
and the narrowness of his escape he
dismisses with a shrug of his shout
ders, but on the subject of the loss
of his motor and the delay in his
plans caused by that misfortune he is
desperately eloquent.

easy to get SCOTS Emulsion.
SCOTS Emulsion does a few
things well. One of them is
to give rich red blood to pale
girls. There is a reason for it
But perhaps you are more
interested in results than in

The result of steady daily
doses of SCOTS Emulsion
is an increase not only in
the red color of the blood and
in the appetite but in the good

Not only the members in California,

visitors will be extended with a hos
pitality that will make every one glad
he is a pilgrim. All sorts of side trips
are planned, incidentally, including
sights of the orange grove and the

OF the great Pacific state, and
glimpses of Lake Tahoe, one OF the

of Hotel del Monte, Of the Lick OBJ

worth seeing and knowing about.
Just now the nation, with its Oriental
responsibilities. is facing west, and
the Pythians are wise to go as far as
they can, and see and learn about
the state that forms the nations west

Shortly before the wagons reached
the downtown district, several thou

ing the drivers. Later a rush was
made for the wagons, with the inten-
ton OF upsetting the contents into the

making several arrests. They succeed
ed finally in getting the wagons TO one
big department store, where delivery
was TO be made. Here a crowd Of 10,'

Loss of Life and Great DAM
age TO Property
Storm General Throughout
Middle States.

Joliet, H., June IA cloudburst
struck Joliet and vicinity at midnight,
cousing the loss of at least three lives,
and immense damage to property. Al
most every railroad track entering the
city Is washed away, and railroad traf-
fc was completely suspended for sew
eral hours. People were asleep when
the raging waters poured down upon
the city, and before they could be
aroused were penned in their homes.
The alarm was quickly given, and the
work of rescue begun. Hundreds were
taken from their houses in small
boats, but many were still prisoners
at daylight. Business in the city is
practically suspended, and mills and
factories closed. In some places the
water is FIVE feet deep. Several houses
were washed away, and many rem
dered uninhabitable. Scores of rail-
road cars are completely submerged,
many cattle drowned, and thousands
of dollars worth of merchandise
ruined. The dead are: Eddie McGov'
ern, Mabel Ford, Lizzie McGraw. The
damage is roughly estimated at $780,
