WILL BUILD A e NOSE FOR HER
First Stages Past of an Operation That L.
Supplying q Want That Defaces

Indianapolis, Nov. Is. DR.. L. G.
Cline, of this city, has undertaken the
delicate operation of restoring a hui
man nose after the nasal bones and
surrounding flesh have entirely
sloughed away as a result of an in
jury. The young woman VIII, has SUBJ
mitted herself to this operation is Miss
Mabel Osborn, of Fulton, n. Y.
The first stages Of Incorporation have
been successfully passed and the physi-
clan expresses confidence in his ability
to restore the nose, not only so that
it will perform the desired functions,
but also i'm the end to enable Miss Os-
born to select the exact kind of nose
she wants. n thing that she regards as
a decided privilege, because it is one
that but few people enjoy.
Before beginning to rebuild the ply
stefan cut away the decayeI bone and
flesh. Healthy tissue was cut from the
inside of the cheeks and moved to the
tie position TO be occupied by the new
nose. AS soon as this is thoroughly
knitted it is proposed to restore the
full contour of the nose by injecting
paraffine heated to a temperature of
40 degrees. Under the skin of the nose
aud then mold it into thedesired shape.

answer will be, Doan's Kidney Pills.
Here is a citizen who endorses our
claim:
Mrs. E. w. WEIGH, (E. w. WEIGH,

honestly believe that there is little
need of anyone suffering from back
ache when such an effective remedy
as Doan's Kidney Pills can be pur.
chased at j. w. Hess drug store.
The prompt and thorough relief which
followed their use has. given me an
abiding faith in the merits OF the
remedy. To know of a preparation
that can be depended upon to act uI
to the representations made for ii

INDIANA's COAL COMBINATION

the Men in the Deal Still Have

Indianapolis, Nov. 1T.-Information
comes from New York that the COM

orators which had been forming there
during last week has fallen through.
Nothing has been heard in this city
by local coal men regarding the end
of the deal. The failure of the conf

uncertain condition of the stock mar
ket during the past week.

the entire plant from its foundation.
At 2:3O a. m. the flames burst through
the heavy fire wall which separated
the big hog house from the other build

Steadily the fire crept against the
win and through the office building,
which was now in flames. Not a scrap
of paper of any kind was saved out
of the office. About this time a burn
ing roof fell upon a bunch of live hogs,
and their squeals were terrible. When
the hog house caught all streams were
turned in that direction, but the wat

were $500 dressed hogs and 2,5O0,0O
pounds of pork product. After the fire

Sioux City, Ia, Nov. 1.-THE big

at the extreme south end of the stock

by a fire which started at 1880 a.
m. yesterday On the second floor of the
fertilizer building. The loss, estimated
by Charles w. Lennon, manager of
the company, was 100000. The cause
Of the fire was said by Lennon to have
been either spontaneous combustion or
an imperfect dryer. There is $721, 500
of insurance on the Armour property.
Six hundred men will be thrown out
of employment all winter by the fire.
Six Streams Were No Use.
The fire was discovered by a watch
man of the building who only a few
minutes before had pulled a messenger
box on the moor where the flames
started. Quickly the plants private

out. and the city department was next.

beef killing house the cattle house
ignited and lasted about five minutes,
when it fell with a great crash. Once
in the beef killing house the flames
had their own way. From this house
to the Oleo building was only a step,

Wheeling, Ind, Nov. 1S.-There is
more excitement here now than since
the railroad was built through this sec
ton. 1t is believed that there is a bed
of coal underlying this part of Della
ware county, and that it extends over
into Grant county. If this be true,
the farmers around here say, the fuel
question in the gas belt is solved. The
town of Matthews, two and a half
miles from aere, in Grant county, is
located on the land formerly owned by
William Slater. The town is the head
quarters of the Chicago and Indiana
Eastern railroad and is a manufacture
ing place of about 1000 population.
Farm Hand Found the Coal.
In 1895 Slater got from the creek
nearby a lot of stone out of which
he built the foundation for some
houses. An investigation was made to
see if there was stone enough for com
mercial purposes, and, while the stone
was not found, there We're discovered
several banks of shale, indicating coal.
But this was eve worked. James
Rigdon. a wealthy farmer east of
Wheeling. a year or so z employed a
farm hand, who lived in a little house
on the place. One day Rigdon visited

coal in his stove. and piled up outside

him where he got il. Il dug it out of

Rigdon Waited Too Long.
RigdOn accused his man with taking
his team and going to Muncie after
il To this the ma made a vigorous
protest, and declared he dug the coal
and that it was much easier to get it
than it was to chop wood. But the
man would Lot tell where he got it,
and finally agreed to furnish the in

eral days, but could find no trace of
the place from which coal had been
taken. At last he agreed to pay the
man SO.
Well Digger Finds Coal.
But the man raised his price to $780,
and Rigdon would not pay it. So it
went on until III. E. Drew, general
manager of the c.. L. and E., got a
well digger to tell him if he ever found
signs of coal, and the well digger has
found a vein four feet thick, 124 feet
down on the farm of Liberty Gum.
