Rev. Jones Delivers Powerful Grafton
for Benefit of the B. Y. p. u.
Rev. e. b. Jones, D. D., pastor of the
First Baptist church. appeared before
a Marshalltown audience for the first
time last evening in the role of lee
turer. For the benefit of the Baptist
Young Peoples Union he delivered to a
crowded house his lecture on John
Brown and His Work" Rev. Jones has
q reputation for marked success as a
lecturer, having spent several years on
the professional platform in the employ
of the Chicago Lyceum Bureau. His
effort last evening was fully as good as
most of the lectures appearing on the
Y. M. c. A. course and his second APP
pearance in Marshalltown should draw
i, full-sized Y. M. C. A. course audi
ence.
Rev. Jones has won the praise of
many noted people upon his explanation
of the motives that led old John Brown
to make his memorable attack upon the
government arsenal at Harper's Ferry.
He believes that Brown had been
goaded to frenzy by the wrongs he and
members of his family had suffered at
the hands of the lawless element of the
slave shielding faction in the Kansas and
Nebraska war and had determined in
his own mind that war between the
north and south was the only solution
of the slavery question. For the DELHI
crate purpose of precipitating such a
struggle, Rev. Jones thinks, John Brown
determined to make a martyr of himself
and inflame the north to action by at
lacking the arsenal at Harper's Ferry
and inviting the wrath of the southern
er, which he knew would be poured
upon him without bounds of reason. His
lecture was somewhat disappointing to
students of history, who are wont to
look upon the troubles of those times
with less Of the extreme abolitionist's
view. but Rev. Jones' Grafton was a
ood-stirring and vivid picture of the
character of the times little understood
by the people of this generation and
poorly told by the cold type of printed
history

REMARKABLE SUCCESS
OF a New catarrh Cure.

A large and constantly increasing
majority of the American people are
catarrh sufferers. This is not entirely
the result of our changeable climate,
but because modern investigation mas
clearly proven that many diseases
known by other names, are reaiiy ca
tarrh. Formerly the name catarrn WAS
applied almost exclusively to the COM
mon nasal catarrh, but the throat
stomach, liver bladder, kidneys ana IN
testines are subject to catarfhal us
eases as we'll as the nasal passages.
In fact, wherever there is mucous
membrane there is feeding ground
for catarrh.
The usual remedies, inhalers, sprays,
douches or powders, have been practl-
cally failures, as far as anything more
than temporary relief was concerned.
because they simply dry UP the mucous
secretions without having the remot-
est effect upon the blood and liver.
which are the real sources of catarrhal
diseases.
1t has been known for some years
that the radical cure of catarrh could
never come from local applications but
from an internal remedy. acting on the
blood and expelling the catarrhal poi
son from the system.
A new internal preparation, which
has been on the market only short
time, has met with remarkable success
as a genuine, radical cure for catarrh.
1t may be found in any drug store,
sold under the name of Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets, large. pleasant tasting
iozenges, composed principally of anti
septic Ingredients. Bloodroot Red Gum
and similar catarrh specifics.
DR.. Ainslee In speaking of the new
catarrh cure says: II have tried the
new catarrh remedy, Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets, upon thirty or forty patients
with remarkably satisfactory results.
They clear the head and throat more
effectually and lashngiy than any
douche or Inhaler that have ever seen,
and altho they are what Is called a
patent medicine and sold by druggists,
do not hesitate to recommend them,
as know them to be free from cocaine
and opiates, and that even a little child
may use them with entire safety"
Any sufferer from nasal eatarrh,
throat or bronchial trouble, catarrh of
the stomach. liver or bladder will find
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets remarkably
effective pleasant and convenient, and
your druggist will tell you they are alb
soiuteiy free from any injurious drug.

Decentralization Of Mark Twain's Mas
terpiece lCieverIy Produced at the

Dramatization of Mark TWain's Mas
terpiece lCieverly Produced at the
Odeon.
'.Pudd'nhead Wilson," as dramatized
from Mark Twain's novel of the same
name, was the attraction at the OdeoE
Friday evening. 1t was not a Mayo
production, but the performance was
a clever one, by a capable company
headed by William S. Gill. Mr.. Gill
was seen in the same piece here last
season, and his present company is
equal to that of lasth year, embracing
a number of the same people. The
work Of Mr.. Gill, in the title role: that
of Miss Halpren, as Roxy, and E. A.
Locke, as Sheriff Blake, stood out in
prominence. Wayne Arey. as Howard
Pembroke, Miss White, as Rowy, and
Edwin Nalod, as Judge Driscoll, were
also good.
"Pudd'nhead wilson differs from
many attractions in that there is MOTH
ing than can be added from season to
season to prove any especial drawing
card. 1t is the same one season as
another, and is not the best of kind
of a return engagement from. a box
Office standpoint. The production was,
however, a very enjoyable one, espe-
cially when semi-popular prices are
considered in connection with it.

CENTRAL swircHMAN HURT.

from Horrible Death.

Perry Thorpe Has miraculous GsSape
from Horrible Death.
Perry Thorpe, well-known Iowa
Central switchman, while at work IN
the wards Friday afternoon, came near
making a misstep that cost him his life.
He attempted to get on the foot board
of a switch engine, and his foot slipped.
He was knocked over, but had pres
ence of mind enough to hold on to the
board, and keep himself from falling
in front of the wheels. He was dragged
for about six car lengths before En-
gineer Wignall could bring the locomo-
tive to stop.
While Thorpe was pretty badly
bruised, at first he was not going to
quit work. He wouldn't even allow a
physician called, but shortly after
wards, when the reaction set In, decided
to go to the company physician himself.
The doctor sent him Immediately home,
where he will remain several days.
Thorpe's worst injury is to his back,
which was wrenched badly. His knees
are both badly bruised, in fact, he is
more or less generally bruised UP.

officer Frank Weaver knows how it
goes to get into trouble. The worst of
it is, he knows what it is to suffer from
the indiscretion of others. The big

morning in company with a friend, and
the latter took an opportunity to shoot
couple of chickens belonging to Sam
Harvey. Mr.. Weaver RECALLED himself
with turnips from the Harvey patch,
and in the afternoon Mr.. Harvey APP

the damage, threatening arrest if he
didn't. Harvey's price was IS and
Weaver paid it. He didn't have the
pleasure of help eating the fowls, eth
err, but he enjoyed the turnips.

At This lime of Year.

The word catarrh means literally to
flow down, and it has been observed
that nasal catarrh has a downward
course internally, and if neglected af-
fects the lungs and brings on consump-
ton. AT this time of the year this form
of catarrh is greatly aggravated. The
discovery of the constitutional nature
of this disease led to the administra-
ton of a constitutional remedy for IT.
and the best of which we have any
knowledge is Hoods Sarsaparilla-it
radically and permanently cures.

self respect which teaches us all that
that which is to be done should be well

The war has ended, and we are now
in state of peace, and let us hope that
we shall not soon be again involved in
war, and that the present era of peace
may long continue. Let us hope that Ill
nations may forget the arts of war and

they would be done by; when they shall
regard the rights of others as being as
sacred as their own; when they Shall
hate wrong and love right, then indeed
will come about the reign of peace on
earth and good will to men.
