"When l had an attack of the grip
last winter (the second One) l actually
cured myself with one bottle of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy" says Frank
W. Perry, editor of the Enterprise,
Shortsville, N. Y. "This Is the honest
truth. 1 at times kept from coughing
myself to pieces by taking teaspoOnful
of this remedy, and when the coughing
spell would come on at night / would
take a dose and 1t seemed that in the
briefest interval the cough would pass
off and 1 would go to sleep perfectly free
from cough and its accompanying pains.
To say that the remedy acted as a most
agreeable surprise is putting it very
mildly. had NO idea that iT would or
could knock out the grip, simply be-

purpose, but it did. and it seemed with
the second attack Of coughing the rem

Fields MinstreIs.

Al G. Field and his minstrels will be at the Jefferson theatre next Monday, mat inee and night. In reviewing this sea- sons company the Atlanta Constitution said:
 Al Field and his company-anmals and all-come very near realizing the best that today has seen in the evolution of the minstrel
 To begin with, the staging was unusual ly good and the first curtain went up on as pretty a tableau as one could wish to see. The scenic effects were soft, harmon ious and pleasing, while the cavalier costumes of the minstrels, with their shmmer of blue silk. added a rich tone to the color scheme.
 The singing was good, among the solo, ists who best pleased the audience being Reese Prosser, with his Down in Mobile Long Ago" and Tommy Donnelly and Harry shunk in bits of "rag-time."
 Af Fields monologue contained many a sparkle of wit that set his hearers a. laughing. Percy Leigh and the Walton Brothers both did clever work, and the other features of the olio were all enter taining, especially. the nonsensical finale the Darktown Circus and Menagerie
 There was splendid house.. whose en- Joyment of the show was only marred by disorder in the gallery at times

MANY BURGLARIES AND
 THEFTS ARE REPORTED

from the Tennessee Coal Iron and Rail- road company at Bessemer. A reward of $50 has been offered for the recovery of the brass and information leading to the arrest of the thieves.

GENERAL TONE OF
 IRON MARKET DULL
HURRY ORDERS FOR PIG METAL ARE BEING PLACED BY PARTIES WHO THOUGHT IRON WAS GO. ING LOWER.

Rogers, Brown & Co.'S Cincinnati cir cular of yesterdays date follows: Not withstanding the reports of lower prices the business in southern iron has been transacted on the basis of $115O for No: at Birmingham as a minimum so far as can be ascertained in the central ter ritory. Hurry orders have been taken rom parties at this price, who had pre- Vlously stated that they had been quoted at less figures. The number of transac- tions is about up to the average, but the aggregate tonnage is much less than customary. It will be quite satisfactory to the iron producers, however, if con- sumers buy frequently to cover their inn mediate wants. but it is not likely that this method will give satisfaction to the buyers for scarcity of cars is now apparent and there will be more or less delay in getting iron forward.
 The best brands of southern Ohio irons have been sold at S1475 for No. 2 Foun- dry in round lots. This price is so near the cost mark that some of the most important producers absolutely decline to consider any offers on a lower basis.
 The general tone of the market is ap- parently firm and the small stocks in the hands of consumers give promise of steady market during the remainder of the year.
 A recent confidential report of foundries manufacturing an important line of cast iron goods showed that about three- fourths were having a better trade now than one year ago.
 The coke situation is worse than the pig iron, so far as supply of cars is con- cerned. A number of the operators in the Connellsville district are not receiv- ing more than fifty per cent of the cars needed to ship out their daily output, and there is likely to be still greater scarcity later in the season. All con- sumers having storage room should take the precaution of keeping at least sixty days supply ahead.

Reading Matter.
INDUSTRIAL NEWS.

Officials of the Reading and Pennsylva- nia railroads say no steps have yet been taken toward a curtailment of the output of anthracite coal, and that the matter has not even been considered It was admitted however, by an official of one of the companies that the market for domestic sizes was practically dead. and that some curtailment of output would have to be made soon. He added that he would not be surprised if the miners were put on four days a week in a short time. Meanwhile independent operators, with out any storage facilities for their surplus output are said to be cutting the circular prices for the domestic sizes as much as 40 cents per ton, offering the coal for s3.35 at the mines. as against the circular price of S3.75.
 A contract has been closed for a new freight steamer for the Wolvin Syndicate of Duluth, which will be the biggest boat on the lakes. The vessel will be built at the Lorain yard of the American Ship building company. and will be able to car ry 10000 tons of freight on 22 feet draft. She will be 56O feet long over all 56 feet beam and 32 feet deep. There will be B matches and 1t is expected that a full cargo of iron ore can be taken on in one hour and unloaded In four hours. The hull and the bulkheads will be so ar ranged that the unloaders can reach every part. and no shoveling will be need ed The engines will be quadruple ex- pansion, with cylinders 1872, 23h, 42la and 66 inch diameter, with 42 inch stroke. The boilers will be built to carry 225 pounds pressure.
 The Engineering and Mining Journal says: Since the depression of 1S96-9S, the iron ranges of the Lake Superior country have been fairly free from labor troubles. At the present time labor In that region is generally well employed wages are good, and nothing is heard of strikes It is said, however that an effort is to be made to organize the miners throughout the district; doubtless with a view to a gen. eral movement for higher wages and other changes. 1t Is possible that this may succeed, but it is to be hoped that present conditions may continue. Unionizing Is more likely to be successful on the Mesabi than on the old ranges. The men able and restless than those in the Mich igan mines, and more open to union in- fuence. A large proportion of the work CTS in both fields are of foreign extrac- ton, but those on the Mesabi are gen. orally later corners. and have no ties to house or other property to hold them.
