hsbitusl costiveness, palpitstion of the
heart, heartburn, water brash, gnawing
and burning pains at the pit of the
stomach, yellow skin, coated tongue
and disagreeable taste IN the mouth

Farmers living near Mo.
Valley have pledged $500 for
the improvement Of roads lead
ing to that town. This is a
commendable spirit. Usually
the towns are expected to put
up the money needed for road
improvement on the plea that
they must draw the trade, but
it seems to us that the farmers
are equally interested as they
want to get to town to trade,
and the farmers near the Valley
set an example that may we'll
be copied all over the country.

Missouri Valley was paid q
visit today by a party of North.
Western officials who arrived

this morning and remained
until this afternoon.
Among those in the party
were the Assistant General
Manager, Assistant Superin-
tendent of Motive Power and
Machinery, and the Superin-
tendent Of Bridges and Bull
dings. During their stay here
the party selected a location
for the large new settling plant
the company will install here
and for which the material is
already on the ground. The
new plant will be installed at
the shops. The officials spent
considerable time in a careful
inspection of the various de-
partments at the shops and
yards. Before taking their de
parture for the East they looked
through the oldS c. & P. office
building at the corner of 9Th
and Ontario streets.
The officials called j. K. Nc
Gavren, drainage commissioner,
to their private car and the
proposed drainage improve
ments in this section of the
county were carefully gone
over. The Company repre-
sentatives evinced considerable
interest in the Improvements
and stated a Company repre-
sentative would arrive in Mis-
souri, Valley early next week,

Patent Holder for Newspapers

Realizing the old time method
of delivering a daily paper to
the subscriber is entirely UNI
satisfactory, the Daily Times
today placed an order for a
urge consignment of the Miller
patent newspaper holders, a
spring arrangement to be at
tached to the front door casing,
the porch post or the front
gate post, that holds the paper
secure until removed by the
subscriber. The holder pre-
vents the crumbling of the
paper by the delivery boy, can
not be blown away by the wind
and is guaranteed strictly dog
proof. 1t is thought the hold
ers will be here by the latter
part of the week.

THE LABOR SITUATION.

The labor situation in New York, ac-
cOrding to District Attorney Jerome, is
assuming a very grave aspect. The
ultimatum issued by the Building Trades
Employers Association demanding the
doing away with the walking delegate
as a condition to the resumption of
building work in New York, will, in the
opinion of the District Attorney, have
the effect of bringing together again the
80 trades unions originally members OF
the disrupted board Of building trades
and of crystallizing the opposition to the
terms of the employers association, in
stead of compelling surrender of the
divided forces of labor. Asked as
to the possibility of the strike spreading
and the national unions taking hand,
Mr.. jerome replied that he was not an
alarmist, hut that if the national unions
took hand the entire country would be
tied up as thoroughly as it would be by
a strike Of the locomotive engineers.
Ten thousand employees of the George
A. Fuller Construction Company in New
York were thrown out of work yester-
day by order of the company, thus
making the lockout in the building
trades complete. While not joining the
employers association in membership.
the Fuller Company took thissympathet-
ic action on the same grounds as those
maintained by members Of the associa-
ton. Yesterday the $50, 600 laboring men
who are idle because they are members
of building trades unions have been
served with the ultimatum of the eom-
olned contracting constructors. That
nltimatum is that they will remain idle
so long as the individual unions refuse
to sign the plan or agreement Of arbitra-
ton and Cancellation proposed by the
employers association.

ed from their headquarters to Independ-
ence Hall and thence to the City Hall,
where, yesterday afternoon, in the shad-
ow of William Penn's statue and in the
presence of the city officials, the strikers
held big meeting on the City Hall plaza
and were addressed by several of their
leaders and by "Mother" Jones, the wo-
man organizer who figured prominently
in tha recent miners strike. The parade
was the ostunique probably of any ever
given in Philadelphia or perhaps in any
city in the country. Although the strik-
ers were out in force, the especial feature
of the demonstration was the participa-
ton of the thousands Of tiny millworkers,
who were given the right of the line.
These youngsters, many Of them neatly
dressed, each carried small American
flags.

MORE MONSTER SHIPS.

Both the Cedric and the Celtic, Of
the White Star line, are to lose the dis
tinction of being the largest ships in the
world. The Hamburg American line is
to build q new steamer that is to
eclipse either of those boats, not only as
to size. but also as to speed and im-
provements. Although the Cedric and
Celtic are alike as to measurements,
the first named, because of an extra
house built forward, is Sc tons bigger
than her older sister, the tonnage of the
Cedric being 1000. Each ship is 200
feet long, rs feet wide and 49 1-S feet
deep.
The new Hamburg-American liner is
to be 725 feet long, n feet in beam and
so feet in depth, which will make her
tonnage something like $4,000. Emil
L. Boas, the American agent of the line,
has been cabled for by the home office to
proceed to Germany in connection with
the plans of the new giant. He will
leave early next month.
simultaneously with the announce
ment of the new Hamburg wonder
it is stated that, aside from the
two fast steamers which the Cunard line
has uuder cotemplation, that company
has prepared plans for third ship Of
the Celtic type, 10 be a little longer than
that craft. Vernon II, Brown, who is
at the head of the Cunard line in this
country, declined to discuss the de-
tails of any of the new ships, but it is
known about Bowling Green that the
Cunard's Celtic type will be "a day
boat from the Irish coast to the Hook.
This is shade faster than the Celtic or
Cedric. The mean speed of either
White Star boat is 16 knots, but they
have done II on a drive with smooth
sea and wind abaft the beam. The new
Hamburg boat will have mean speed
of III knots, which will probably resu I
in IS or more knots on the builders trial.
Aside from speed and size, the new
Hamburg liner will be inordinately big
as to carrying capacity, particularly az
to passengers. She will be able to carry
one time again as many guests as the
Waldorf-AstOria can accommodate. If
four complete regiments of infantry were
placed on board of her there would still
be room for few hundred more persons
without any overcrowding.
The chief cabin accommodation will
be amidships, and the cabins will be
built up there much after the fashion of
a modern apartment house. The minor
details have not yet been agreed upon,
but it is understood that the new ship
will have at least three and possibly
four tunnels, each capable of letting two
trains pass in safety, and two masts.
j There will be triple promenade decks,
the topmost a roof garden; running
water in each first-class stateroom; more
than so baths, gymnasium, three
smoking.rooms, two MUSHROOMS, two
ladies' rooms, two libraries and large
room devoted entirely to the handling of
wireless telegraphy.
As compared with the Great Eastern,
the new vessel will be "a feet longer,
81 feet narrower, feet 2 inches deeper
and G, 0S5 tons greater capacity. 1t is
thought the contract for the boat will be
given to the Vulcan Company, Of
Stettin, which built the company's
Deutschland.
