DR.. Adler's Theory is that nearly al
diseases of the bowels. stomach, liver
and kidneys are caused by diseased
appendix. AS the nerves of the ap-
pendix are connected with the nerves
of the stomach and intestines it can
readily be seen how diseased appen-
dix will result in the disease of these
organs as we'll. DR.. Adler's treatment
cures the diseased appendix. That
cured, the other organs will soon re-
sumo their natural activity. There are
plenty of remedies that will relieve
stomach, kidney and liver trouble to
some extent, but you will never get
we'll until you relieve the cause, the
diseased appendix. That is just what
DR.. Adler's treatment does, and that
is why his remedy has been so success
fully used in thousands of cases of
stomach, liver and kidney trouble
Even the first few doses of this medi-
cine bring relief. and a large bottle is
enough to effect cure in all ordinary
cases. Large bottles of DR.. Adler
treatment will be sent by express pre-
paid for one dollar. DR.. Adler's illus
trated booklet on appendicitis will be
sent free on application. Address,

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.

The following market letter is fur
nished by Edwards, Wood & Co.,
Grain Commission Merchants,
Chamber of Commerce. Minneapolis,
$40 Board of Trade, Duluth.
Jaly each days trading is a
fresh illustration Of the almost COM
plete, domination of the cousre of
prices by the weather. Bad weather
brought about: the sharp advance of
the early part of last week and prom
ised favorable weather caused the de-
cline which followed. On Monday
of this week there was good ad
vance,, caused by rains in number of
the winter wheat states. 1t was
raining all through Kansas at 10 30
this morning. The government
weekly crop bulletin says that the
past week has been highly favorable
for corn.with general improvement !;
that oats are promising but that win
ter wheat has been much damaged in
shock, in Illinois, Missouri and
Nebraska, and that there are no I'M
favorable conditions for spring wheat.
E4porGs lor Iue crop year onuluS

million bushels under last year, and
stocks of wheat ahoat and abroad are

A TERRIBLE STORM.
Two People Were Killed in Waseca
County and Great Damage Done.

Waseca, Mimi, July S.-The par
ticulars of the terrific storm which
passed south and east Of here Satur-
day evening have just reached this
city. At the home of Adam Bishman
the storm, struck the place while
Adam, Jr., and his two sisters and
hired man were in the basement of
the barn attending to the evening
milking. The barn was torn asunder
and the heavy machinery and hay
with which it was filled crashed in
the basement, killing one of the girls
outright and crushing Adam Bishman,
Jr., 80 that he died last night.
The other sister and the hired man
were buried in the debris over two
hours, but we're rescued by neighbors
before they suffocated. Eight head of
cattle and five head of horses in the
barn were killed. The tragic affair is
doubly overwhelming to the Bishman
family for the reason that Philip
Bishman, a brother to the two persons
killed in the storm, was murdered in
the row at the wedding feast in Wilton
on June 10, and the family was still
in mourning over his tragic end The
storm was widespread and as far as
reports this was the only loss of life
in this vicinity.
The barn of Herman Wentworth
and all his outbuildings were COM
pletely demolished. The barn of
Charles Brush was unroofed and a
valuable driving team and one COW
were killed. Charles Domey lost his
barn and widnmill, and Alfred Woods
barn was partly destroyed.
Every windmill in the path of the
storm was destroyed, but the crops
seem to have suffered but little injury,
GAINESVILLE, Mimi, July s.-A tor
nado struck here..Saturday night, do
ing great deal of damage. Barnes
were blown down, plate glass
1IOugS DlOWu III duu l10OS UIOhOA'
Telephone and electric light wires are
down. One woman was badly in
jured by falling glass. On the farm
of Henry Jewison all buildings are
down and about all the cattle killed.
A curious sight is a small barn lodged
in the tops of some big trees lin the
west part of town.
The Minnesota elevator company's
elevator is badly wrecked, land the
porches are blown off some of the resi-
dences. Reports from the farmers
indicate that all small gains are fiat
and the chances for their coming up
again seem poor. Corn, however, is
all right as yet. A heavy rain accom-
panied the wind, and the low places
are covered with water, making a
total loss of all the hay that has
been cut

MAPLETON.

Mapleton, July IA very severe
wind storm struck this place between
eight and nine o'clock Saturday eve
ming. The storm. came up very suddenly
and lasted but short period but in
that time managed to do great
amount of damage. Several large
buildings were torn up and on all
sides can be seen broken trees.
A large house belonging to Mrs. S.
Neller was almost completely blown
to pieces. The house was being built
by Geo. Rue and the inside work had
just been commenced. A barn be-
longing to J. N Wishart was COM
pletely wrecked, the pieces being
found for blocks around. G. 81. Ner-
bovig's barn was lifted up, carried
over barn near to it and left in the
garden in front of M. M. Pratt S
house. Various other barns were
completely destroyed The reports
from the country around are various
The telephone lines are down in all
directions and nothing definite can be
learned. But very few windmills
for ten miles around are stand ng.
Until further particulars are learned
the loss can not be estimated.

STILL RUNNING.

st. Clair, July s, 1902. Editor Free
Press, Mankato, MINI. Sir: ]
notice an article in your daily of the
18th inst, in which you say the post
Office is closed and no mail being
handled, all of which is not true.
Now, when my family was quaran-
tined some time ago, 1 moved from
my house to the post Office building
and remained there. I did not go to
my residence until after the quaran-
tine was raised and when I did go
used the same precautions that a
doctor uses. Now my youngest daugh-
ter, has been quarantined (three small
pimples on her face and 1 am still
patching back of the post Office, which
is running on time. 1t was fumigated
last Sunday for the benefit of Mime
sofa Lake and Medo. Now if you
are not afraid of infection from this
letter please publish.
Yours truly,

CUTTERS NOT BRIDGED.
A Fault that is Found with Broad
Street Paving.

Criticism of the Broad street pave
ment is being made because there are
no crossings over the cutters. People
who wheel baby carriages have made
the discovery that it is no pleasure to
walk along Broad street, while pedes-
trians fear that they cannot Cross the
street when it rains, owing to the
cutters being full of water and nc
crossings provided. In most cities, II
is said, the cutters are bridged over al
the crossings Omaha and Saltwater
have open cutters at the crossings.
When any more streets are paved in
Mankauo it might be we'll to bridge
the cutters at the crossings. -
Attorneys .Schmitt and Flittie have
asked the Barber Asphalt Co. whether
it would be willing to deduct $40, 600
from the contract price provided a
settlement of John Diamonds suit
could be affected. The company did
not agree to this. The idea of the
attorneys was to deduct for the paving
of the wings on the street intersec-
tions, which they claim is not provid-
ed for in the contract, and which they
say the company cannot collect for.
They are of the opinion that what
ever action the court takes on the con-
tract as a whole, the property owners
and city will be relieved from paying
for these wings.
An objection which the attorneys
named raise to asphalt paving is that
it cannot be repaired except when the
repair plant is in the city, which will
only be once in a year or two.

THE CITY FREE.
No Contagious Diseases Now Within
Its Borders.

Health Officer Hielscher states that
for the first time in over year there
is not now a case of smallpox, diph-
liberia or scarlet fever in the city, the
last smallpox patient having been dis
charged from quarantine this morn
ing, and the hospital closed. The doc
tor has a record of 139 cases of small
pox since the outbreak was first re-
ported, and there have been no deaths
from the disease. He further states
that there have been number Of
cases that have not been reported to
the health authorities, and he esti-
mates that there have been about 200
cases of smallpox altogether in the
city. The total cost of looking after
the epidemic, has not yet been figured
up but will be about 50, 900. cas-.

BRANDS is FOUND
Charged with Stealing His
Brothers Horse.
Denies Theft and Claims He Took 1t
on a Debt--.About to be
Married.

BENJAMIN Brands was arrested near
Elysian this morning by Martin
Wiltgen, on the charge of stealing his
brothers. horse and buggy on last
Thanksgiving night. He was brought
to this city and placed in the county
jail to await his hearing.
Brands had been working for his
brother, on the latter's farm in Nc
Pherson, and left unexpectedly. No
trace of him could be found.
Brands denies that he stole the
horse. He is thirty years old and
somewhat simple minded. His story
is that he was working near Elysian,
when his brother and father wanted
him to come to their farm and work
for them, promising to give him a
horse and buggy. He went there and
worked hard for two years, but was
not paid anything, nor was he given
the horse and buggy. He says that
his father and brother treated him
roughly. He concluded to take the
horse and buggy and leave, and did so.
He considers that he only took what
was his, inasmuch as his brother and
father owed him $3.50 for his services
Brands says that he drove to Kasota
the night he left Mcpherson, and that
the next day he drove to Belle Plaine.
There he traded the horse for a pony,
but he got beaten in the deal. The
pony had the heaves and would not
go, and the people that he got it of
said that somebody had taken the
horse from them and they took the
buggy and pony from him.
Brands then went to Norton, near
Crookston, to look for two eighties
that his father had there, intending to
take one Of these. he could not find
them, so he went to Kilkenny and
worked for a farmer near there
through the winter, chopping wood.
He then went to Elysian and worked
for the farmer that he had previously
worked for. This farmer had sold
him horse and buggy when be was
there first. 1t was there that he was
arrested. - .- -
Brands says that he will have no
trouble in getting out. He will get
Attorney Stone of st. Peter to defend
him. after get out, said he. 81
will have dad pulled if he don't pay
me what he owes me.
When asked about his love affairs,
Brands said that he intended to get
married next fall to young lady at
Elysian. He said that he has seen
her twice, "and she is dandy he
added. While he has not yet been
introduced to her, he said that he does
not anticipate that he will have any
trouble in winning her hand. He ex-
poets to close the matter up in hurry
when he gets started. H--a-'-'
The brother at Mcpherson learned
of Brands presence near Elysian, and
at.-his solicitation Sheriff Gerlich
sent Mr.. Wiltgen to arrest him.
