Such endorsements serve to indicate the

Alcohol From SaWdust.

A Norwegian chemist has dlscov-
cred a new and cheap way of making
alcohol from sawdust. Sawdust is
treated under pressure with diluted
sulphuric acid, by which the cellulose
is transformed into sugar, which, by
adding fermentation producers, Is con-
verified into alcohol in the old manner
and then distilled. Two hundred and
twenty pounds Of sawdust yield fifteen
pounds of alcohol.

or on yucca or orange wood. The

Of the people The natural timidity which
so many people have felt about giving en-.

Gratitude and desire to help others has
inspired thousands Of people to give public
testimonials for Peruna who heretofore would
not have consented to such publicity.
Never before in the annals Of medicine has
it happened that so many men Of national
and international reputation have been will

Of advertising could have accomplished such

slipped and the wheels of the car passed
over him. 1t was thought he had been
instantly killed, but the man to reach him
first heard him say: Get the little wife,
Jack, and you fellows pray for me to last
until she comes"
Russell was soon in the hospital, and
that he was living was a miracle. 1t was
absolutely impossible for any surgery to
aid him, and while his brother brakemen
and trainmen stood in the accident ward

MAY ELECT WOMAN
PUBLIC LIBRARIAN
1t Is Believed Library Board Will
Choose Miss Countryman or
Miss Crafts.

There is a belief that neither Will
liam r. Watson, of Pittsburg, nor Geo.
+. Bowerman, of Wilmington, will be
the successor of DR.. J. K. HoSmer,
whose resignation as public librarian
of Minneapolis takes effect in Febru-
ary.
Persons who have watched the con-
test for the place are of the opinion
that either Miss Gratia A. Country
man, assistant public librarian or Miss
Letitia NJ. Crafts, secretary of the
board and assistant librarian at the
state university, will be elected Ii
brarian for year.
In any event, the meeting of the Ii
brary board next Friday will be as in
teresting as any held in the history of
that organization.
At the last meeting, held early in
October, two members of the general
committee, Jacob Stone and E. c. Gale,
made q report faVoring the election of
Mr.. Watson, and made no reference to
the other candidates.
This action was not approved by the
board, which ordered the committee to
report the names of all the candidates
at the meeting to be held next Friday.
In the meantime the friends of the
two Minneapolis candidates have been
active, and it is the belief in many
quarters that one or the other will be
elected for a period of at least a year.

BUTTE, Mont. Oct 29.-Two appeals
to the supreme court in the MacGinnis
injunction suits against the Boston &
Montana company have been perfected in
record breaking time. The injunction or
ders were made by Judge Clancy last
Friday, and today, by stipulation of the
attorneys on both sides, the two big rec
ords We're submitted. The transcripts,
consisting of the evidence and depositions
in the case, were submitted to Judge
Clancy tonight, and the transcripts were
approved and signed.
BY this means the perfeeting of the
appeals was expedited by a month, as
regards the statutory time allowed in
such cases.
It is probable that within a week the
two big transcripts on appeal will be
ready for presentation to the supreme
court. In the meantime a motion will
be made for the advancing of the cases
on the calendar in the higher court, so
that the appeal may be reached and
passed upon at the earliest possible mo-
