CLIMATIC CURES.

The influence of climatic conditions in
the cure of consumption is very much
overdrawn. The poor patient, and the
rich patient, too, can do much better at
home by proper attention to food diges-
ton, and regular use of German Syrup
Free expectoration in the morning is
made certain by German Syrup, so is a
gooe nights rest and the absence of that
weakening cough and facilitating night
tion due to Coughing, the S greatest r dsn
ger and dread Of the consumptive, can be
prevented or stopped by taking German
Syrup literally and regularly. Should
you be able to go to warmer cline, you
will find that of the thousands of con-
sumptives there, the few who are bene-
flied and regain strength are those who
use German Syrup. Trial bottles, Is
cents; regular size, Is cents.

The Fargo Street Railway company
asked the city council for a second
extension Of time. until Aug. 1, 1904,

son for the delay. The real stock
holder finally organized and put up a
bond Of $4,000 to guarantee their in.
tentfon to build the line. Failure to
secure shipments of material in time
has made it impossible to do the re.
qutred amount Of work this winter.
The secretary Of the company has ap.
peared with a bill of lading for sew
eral thousand dollars worth of steel
that has been shipped from Pittsburg
and other evidence that the company
is in earnest. City Treasurer Mitchell
declared the $4,000 forfeit money put
up by the company forfeited. however
and he has transferred it to the gen.
eral fund and is paying warrants with
the amount. The council extended the
time of the franchise and the forfeit
but the treasurer decided the council

St. LOUIS not IN.
Quite a Crowd To-day at the New
York Offices Of the Missing
Liner.
But Little Apprehension Is Felt Yet
The Liner Is Nearly I'm
sinkable.

New York, Jan. 15.-Up to noon the
overdue American liner st. Louis from
Southampton and Cherbourg had not been
reported. A.
There was quite a crowd at the offices
Of the American line to-day asking for
news of the St. Louis, most Of the
people being friends and relatives Of
passengers. - .. -s.--
The Spanish steamship Montevideo
steamer had come over the southern
route but had not sighted the ST. Louis.
The American line people did not attach
much Importance to this failure to sight
the boat, as they said the st. Louis would
not take the southern. route.
The st. Louis carries 275 passengers in
all. OF this number Is are first cabin, 70
second cabin and $50 steerage. The pas
senger lists of the St. Louis, as they were
made up at Southampton Jan. 8, when she
was scheduled to sail, were received yes
.terday on the Red Star line steamship
Vaderland, which left Antwerp Jan. 3.
The reply made to all who inquired as to
the reason for the liners hardness was
that in all probability her boilers had
caused some trouble, and some Of them
had been cut out, thus reducing the speed
Of the boat. The assertion was made,
without the least contradiction, that the
ST. Louis was an excellent sea boat and
that she would be able to keep her head
up in almost any trouble and to reach
port safely if she hadn't a, boiler W orking.
She has seventeen water-tight compart-
ments, separated by transverse bulk
heads extending from the keel to the sa-
loon deck, and is as nearly unsuitable as
any liner. She was turned out of the
Cramp yard at Philadelphia seven years
ago. @~.-,.cE, ~. .E@.r. - IT, p.

Terrible Atrocities Committed by

San Francisco, Jan. 15.-Among the
passengers Of the steamer Newport from
Panama and way ports were Lieutenant
Arthur II. Dutton and J. J. Many and four
enlisted men Of the American manned
Colombian cruiser Bogata which sailed
from this port Oct. Z. They speak in any
thing but enthusiastic terms Of their ex-
periences in Colombian waters Lieuten-
ant Dutton, executive officer Of the Bo-
gaia, in a signed statement, says:
Il never heard Of a court-nartial while
I was in Colombia. Punishments were
carried out and sentences inflicted at the
sweet will Of those in power. The So
called discipline Of the armies was main
tanned by the bullet or the lash.
"A trifing ofense was at times pun
ished by 100 lashes on the bare back with
a flexible cane. Men were shot for mere
nothings.
"A few days after peace was declared
two liberal officers who had refused to
acquiesce in the conditions, but were cap
tured, were taken to the Chiuqui fortress,
Panama, and there dashed brutally until
dead.
'tSome prisoners who had been taken
after particularly stubborn resistance
had their legs or arms cut of or their
eyes or ears removed and were then re-
leased. to go MANNED through life. Some
died from loss Of blood.
"One OF several scl1ooners, loaded with
refugees which the Bogata was towing
sprung leak in deep water at sea. The
refugees were rescued and the captain and
crew Of five men were about to follow
them when the Colombian officials in
charge ordered them back on board the
doomed schooner. Let them perish with
her. he exclaimed. The six unfortunates
innocent OF any wrong doing. were left
to their fate on a, sinking schooner with
no sails and no boats.
