There is more catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than in all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local dis
ease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven ca
tarrh to be a constitutional disease,
and, therefore, requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by +. j. Cheney
& Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only con-
stitutional cure on the market. 1t is
taken internally in doses from 10
arops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts di-
rectly on the blood and mucous sur
faces of the systsm. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it fails
to cure. Send for circulars and tes-

ON BODY
Mississippi River Gives Up An.
other of Its Dead at
Port Byron.
MAY PROVE A CASE OF MURDER
Two Stones of 40 Pounds Each
Tied to Remains With
Rope.

Weighted with two stones, each of
14O pounds, death was made sure for
the man whose body was taken from
the Mississippi at Port Byron this
morning.
The body, that of a man probably
90 years of age, was found close to
shore just above the Port Byron saw
mill at O'Clock by Joseph Whiteside,
a fisherman.
The stones We're held by a heavy
rope that was tied around the waist
The body was attired in .overalls and
blue working shirt. 1t was in an
advanced state of decomposition,
having apparently been in the water
many weeks.
Claimed by Clinton.
The authorities of Clinton, Iowa,
say the remains are those of Jacob
Helm, of that city, and the descrip-
ton they furnished Coroner L. V
Ecllhart over the telephone this af-
ternoon tailed closely with that of
the body taken from the river.
Whether it was a case of suicide or
murder is question difficult of de-
termination. although it is held. if
the man belonged in Clinton. and sui
cided, it would have been necessary
for him to have come pretty close
to the spot where the remains were
found to have committed the deed
as the weights would have allowed
the body to move but very little
from the place where it was original
ly deposited. No marks of violence
have been detected on the body.

FRANKLIN, Ind, May 3.-The Franklin
College baseball team defeated the In
~dianapolis Manual Training High School
team on Franklin Field this afternoon by
the score of 5 to 4. Both teams played
poor ball in the first two innings, but after
the second the playing was good on both
sides. Tn game was not characterized by
any star playing, although Rivers did his
usual good work in the box, striking out
ten of the High School batters. Sweeney
and Smith played the best game for the
visitors. In the first inning Walden scored
on Roach's hit and Branigar scored on a
passed ball. Franklin did not score again
until the seventh, wher, with two men out
and the bases full, Captain Branigan made
a two-base hit, allowing Webb and Walden
to cross the plate. Here the side was re-
tired by the umpire for interference. In
the ninth inning Shuller scored the win
ming run on Roach's hit.
Road and Foley made the two first runs
for the High School in the second inning on
Webbs error at first. In the third Sweeney
took advantage of Shutters error TO score
the third run for the visitors. They did not
see home plate again until Smith tied the
