CHICKEN SEASON IS OPEN.
SEASON FOR THE SHOOTING OF
PRAIRIE CHICKENS OPENS
TODAY.
MANY SPORTSMEN ARE IN THE
FIELDS AFTER A DAYS
SPORT.

The game season opened today, and
the stubble fields and the copses in
the vicinity of the city are resounding
with the report of the fowling piece
and the whirr of the game chicken.
From all quarters of the city hunting
parties started out last night and this
morning, with appetites whetted by
the long wait for the opening of the
season. Chickens are reported plent.
full in all parts of the county. A
spring without heavy rains insures a
good chicken crop, and the nests are
not flooded out and the young birds
have an opportunity to thrive.
Every sportsman in the city was to
be seen last night with a gun case in

Held Up a Coal Train.

Arcola, Illinois, which during the
past month has suffered fuel famine
now has coal to burn. Last Saturday
an Illinois Central train with fifteen
cars of coal stopped at Arcols to re-
pair the locomotive. Selling their
chance, committee of leading resi-
dents presented themselves before the
train crew and carried or colloquy
something after this order:
1--WE are committee representing
people of Arcola. We need coal anC
we want to buy this.
eve have no authority to sell you
the coal" replied the spokesman o.
the crew.
"Will you, then, ask the officials o.
the railroad company in Chicago by
wire if We can buy the coal on this
train2"
Certainly" said the trainman, ap'
preciating that there wasa ring of de-
termination in the questions.
In due time the answer came back
from Chicago that the company re-
fused to sell the coal and that it must
be taken through to it's destination as
soon as possible.
Then we shall proceed to take your
coal" declared the committee. eve

mainly in this case rises above the
statutes.
you will take the coal at your
own risk, said the trainmen.
I'VE assume all responsibility for
that action" replied the committee.
"You will make forcible resistance at
your peril. The train shall not be
moved until the people of Arcola are
supplied"
Organized seizure was then reaorted
to. A weigher was selected and word
was sent throughout the town that
coal could be had for the asking.
Teams rushed to the cars and the
committee of citizens helped to fill the
wagons, the weigher keeping an &C.
count of the amount each person OBJ
tanned, together with his name. By
10 o'clock 500 teams were hauling
away the confscated coal as fast as
they could. The work was kept up
all day and the fuel famine was bro
ken.
That night the mercury went to %
below zero and heavy snow, seven
inches deep, fell, but there was no suf-
fering, for all were warmed by the
confscated fuel. Those who had
formed the mob of determined men
went to church on Sunday and joined
in singing Praise God, from Whom
All Blessings Flow"
What the railroad company will do
has not yet been developed.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining Of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube gets
inflamed you have a rumblIng sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
aud this tube restored to its normal con-
dltion, hearing will be destroyed for
ever nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition Of the mucous surfaces.
