ment.

Davenport, Dec. 1S.-A new and sem
sational turn has been taken in the
reform movement inaugurated by Rev
Giglinger. A report has reached the
Clergyman to the effect that one of the
saloonkeepers against whom injunc-
ton proceedings has been brought was
threatening his life and had stated
that he would give $1,000 to any one

above report from apparently reliable
authority and has the name of the
party who is alleged to have made the
threat.

ternoon that no complaints had reached
him. as yet. in regard to saloons re-
manning open after midnight, and he
believes that they are all now comply
ing with this requirement.. IN regard
to gambling. Rev. GigiinSer stated that
nothing would be done until the next
term of court, which will be in Jam
uary, but that all who operate gam
bling houses In this city will be liable
to indictment by the grand jury.
In regard to the Turner Hall and the
dances held at that place Rev. Gig
lihger stated that an agreement would
be reached whereby there will be no
prosecution as long as no liquor is sold
to outsiders after midnight and that
only those in actual attendance at the
dancing parties will be allowed this
privilege. Also that after a person
once leaves the dance, that they Will
not be allowed to return. The saloon
and bar room on the ground floor, is
already observing the ~ o'clock closing
and will continue to do so.
Rev. Giglinger states that the law al
lows $50 for each injunction proceed
ing, $50 to go TO the attorneys and $cb
to the citizen bringing the action. He
however. has not received a cent, and
when the cases are all finally disposed
of, Rev. Giglinger states that he Will

HENDERSON FOR CONGRESS.
Some Talk Of Again Making Him a
Leader in Third District.

Some ] ak OF Again Making Him a
Leader in Third District.
| Dubuque, Dec 1s.-It is understood
that an effort will be made by the re-
publican leaders of the Third district to
have Colonel Henderson, who Is spend
ling the holidays in this city, run for
congress two years hence. The colonel
says 1t is his purpose to come. to Du-
buque to reside permanently in the
near future. and his intimate friends
here interpret this to mean that he
can be induced to represent the dis
triet in congress again.
He denies the gossip relative to his
United States senatorial aspirations. %
succeed William Il. Allison when the
latter steps out, altho the fact that he
intends to take up his residence in Du-
buque again lends color to these ru-
mors.
There is not the least doubt of the
nomination and election of Colonel
Henderson should he again aspire to
congressional honors. as the feeling
that was engendered against him has
subsided.

OLD AND NEW WAY.
HyOmei. the Latest Scientific Discovery for
the Cure of Catarrh.

The discovery of Hyomei has
wrought wonderful change in the
treatment of catarrh.
Prior to three years ago the medi-
cines ordinarily employed in the cure
of this disease were nauseating drugs
and worthless tonics. In some instan-
ces they benefited, but the improve
ment was not lasting.
With Hyomei you take into the air
passages of the throat and head a
balsamic air that goes to the minutest
sells, effcctually killing all germs and
microbes of catarrh. 1t enters the
blood with the oxygen, killing the
germ in the blood, and restores health
to the whole system. Many astonish-
ing testimonials have been received
from those who have been cured by
Hyomei.
n. G. Durham, 2 Wellington street,
Boston, Mass, writes: Il have suf-
fered from catarrh for a number of
years. l tried Hyomei and found it
the only cure for this disease l have
ever used"
Perhaps the strongest evidence that
can be given to doubters, is the fact
that T. Ii. Thomas has so much faith
in Hyomei that he sells every pack
age under a positive guarantee to re-
fund the money if it does not cure.
Now is the time to begin to use
HyOmei.

LOOKING FOR ICE
Southern Dealers Getting Anx-
ious About Supply of
the Cool.
SHORTAGE OF CARS FIGURING
General Improvement Noted in Fa-
cilities for Handling
Freight.

Local shippers have so far had no
great cause for complaint in the
shortage of cars that is felt all over
the country. There is healthy COM
petition between the three large sys-
TENS that reach this point and the
traffic here is so important that every
effort is being made to meet the local
demand. If one of the three roads
chances to be short on cars one of
the others is sure to have enough to
supply the deficiency for the time be-
ing.
The shippers of this city have been
pretty well taken care of all along
and in Moline there has been little
trouble experienced. AS there are
forty or more cars day being load
ed here and at Moline it will be seen
that the matter of getting enough
cars is not small undertaking.
Though there has been a general
Improvement in the situation the late
storm with the cold weather that has
followed it will probably have some
effect in bringing back a measure of
the former congested condition. 1t
is believed, however, that the worst
has passed.

the oils and fluids that 1ubricate the
muscles and joints, and they become stiff
and sometimes immovable.
Rheumatism, with its sharp, cutting
pains, can never be conquered until the
acid blood has been cleansed and puri-
fed, and all irritating substances neutral
lied and filtered out of the system, and
nothing does this so promptly and effec-
tuallv as S. S. S. Under the purifying
and tonic effects of this vegetable rem
cdy the blood is made pure, the general
health is rapidly built up and the sufferer
obtains happy relief from the torturing,
nagging pains of Rheumatism.

Another Reason offered.

Another reason has been given for
taking off the Galesburg passenger
train on the Burlington. which was
laid off last week on account, as it
was given out at the time. of the
shortage of coal. From outside
sources it was intimated that the
train had not been paying. but now
it is reported from a semi-official
source that the real reason is NOT
that the passenger train has not been
paying. but that it has been in the
way of the freights, which yield a
larger income for the same amount
of expense. Handling freight on the
road between here and Galesburg mas
been rather hard proposition with
only a single track and this latest
story has it that the passenger has
been removed mainly to simplify the
matter.

Ice Shippers Anxious.

The cold weather has also introduce
ed another element into the situation
in this vicinity. This is the time of
the year when the ice dealers in the
middle south. if they have been una
BILE to secure a supply of the cool
near home. begin to bestir themselves
to get supply from the north. Little
ice has been harvested this winter in
the latitude of St. Louis and the deal
ers there are very anxious TO take adj
vantage of this cold weather for ship
ping from here.
Already one party has been here
endeavoring to get 500 ears, but was
unable to do so on account of the
lack of cars. Others are expected
during the next few days, but it seems
improbable that the railroads will be
able to meet the demand at this time

WOMAN ENToMBED ALIVE
Poe's Story of the "Black Cat" DupIi-
Gated In Real Life.

New York, May 11.-A stonemason
center Of the town when a carriage
swiftly drove up to him. two masked
men jumped out, threw a bag over
his head, bundled him into the car
riage and sped away, says a dis
patch from Baku, to The Herald.
After an hours drive the mason was
told to alight, the sack was taken
from his head and he found himself
In an Old-fashioned courtyard. He was
pushed through door into a corridor
and in an empty room he noticed an
opening in stone wall in which was
wedged a woman trembling and with
a terrified face.
The men who had brought the ma
son pointed revolvers at his breast
and ordered him to wall up the open
ing with the woman behind it, threat
ening to shoot him dead if he refused.
Stones, mortar and trowels were in
the room. He was told that the wo-
man was Mahometan who had in
jured her husband The mason built
up the opening, the sack was again
drawn over his head and three-quar-
ters of an hour later he was put out Of
the carriage at a lonely part of the
city AS soon as he could free him
self of the sack he did so, but the
carriage had disappeared. He went
Immediately to the police and told his
story, but although the police are
ransacking the houses in the Mohame,
tan quarter, they can find no trace Of
the locality of this horrible crime.
