COURT SCORES THE GRAND JURY.
Judge Dunn at Charleston Says Poll
tics lnterfered With Work.


Charleston, ILL.,, May S.-Judge F. K.
Dunn of the Cole circuit court scored
the grand jury yesterday, saying it had
been in session two weeks and returned
bat one indictment, and that against
a man who is accused Of voting twice.
The court said: TT is plain that a
conspiracy to corrupt the ballot not
only exists among both parties by men
occupying high social and political po-
sitions, but that these same men con-
spired to prevent the grand jury from
doing its duty" The judges remarks
were called forth because Of rumors
that democratic and republican leaders
each had $1,000 to use as corruption
fund on election day, and that when
the grand jury convened they sent the
workers out Of town and otherwise
shielded them.

Pocahontas, March 26.AThere is a
plan on foot here to run an electric line
from Fonda thru here to Rolfe, finishing
the Rolfe line first in order to have
some connection With the Northwest
ern. The business men of this place are
not at all satisfied with the service Civ
en- them by the Rock Island. especially
as regards mail which arrives later
than it did by the old stage coach meth
Cd before the Rock Island built thru
the town. The idea Is to connect with
the c. 81 N. w. at Roife and then to
build south to Fonda, where the line
would connect with both the Milwaukee
and Illinois Central.
The line will follow the public high
way and will be made standard guage
SO as to haul freight Some of our most
prominent business men are at. the
head of this move and stock will soon
be on the market.
The project is regarded as the most
feasible of any of the many new electric
lines that have been promoted in the
state during the past year. 1t would
tap one of the finest farming countries
in the state and give the people along
the line connection with three great
competing systems of railway.

ONLY PARTLY TRUE.

Popular Ideas Regarding catarrh.
It ia the common belief that what is
PECULIARLY known as catarrh is simply
a chronic cold in the head. This is
true as far as it goes, but as matter
of fact catarrh is by no means con
hned to the nasal passages, but extends
wherever the mucous membrane ex-
tends, which means nearly every part
OF the body.
The mucous membrane Is the inside
skin of the body and is nearly as extern
sive as the outside skin. and any in
fiammation of this membrane causing
and extra secretion Of fluid is really
catarrh.
Catarrh is. therefore, an old enemy
disguised by many confusing names,
Tor instance: Rhinitis Is nasal catarrh.
laryngitis and pharynigitis throat ca
tarrh; gastritis stomach catarrh; cys-
tits and nephritis, catarrh Of the blad-
Ter and kidneys.
Therefore. altho the location Of the
trouble gives 1t various names. in real
aty the sum total is catarrh and moth
Ing else.
Do not make the mistake of thinking
you have no catarrh because the head
and nose appear to be clear. II there
Is q cough, tickling in the throat and
hoarseness you have throat catta.rh. II
there is ne appetite. but nausea, gag
cling and disgust for food especially in
The morning. you have catarrh OF the
1tomach.
The surest treatment for every form
OF catarrh is an internal remedy which
acts especially on the blood and mu-
cous membranes; such a remedy is the
new preparation sold everywhere by
druggists under the name Of Stuarts
Catarrh Tablets, medicine in pleas
ant tablet form and containing all the
best and latest specifics for catarrh.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain In
highly concentrated form. bloodroot,
red gum OF the Eucalyptus tree, and
many other equally valuable curative
elements. and no one who suffers from
any form Of catarrh and has seen the
ineficiency Of douches, sprays and
powders will ever go back to them after
once trying so pleasant preparation

which gives so much relief In so short
time.

THE ARSENAL FIRE.
Work of Clearing Up the Debris About
Completed.



Completed.
SpeciaI to imes-Repuhiican.
Davenport, March. 24.-It was num-
Der of weeks ago that Storehouse a,
o. the Rock Island arsenal. burned with
S2.00O,00O of valuable contents. Ever
since the fire went out, and debris was
cooled off, the work of clearing up that
expensive lot of ashss and rubbishs mas
been in progress. And a big job II is.
The floor of the ruin--what was the
basement floor of the esrtwhile building
is of concrets. Everything inside
the walls that did not fly over them In
smoke went down in mass on top OF
this floor The formation of this costly
conglomerate is about three feet deep;
&. mingled, tangled ashy mass. Clear
ing 1t has been slow, because all posi-
Bio salvage is being made out of what
little the fire left In the four weeks
that tbs, clearing has been going on the
floor has been two thirds cleared. 1t is
estimated that two weeks more will see
the last of it cleaned up.
Some OF the articles for the supply OF
the army. that were stored in that
building, were not much damaged.
Picket pins, for the stalking out of the
cavalry and artillery ana wagon train
horses. for example. and the officers,
mounts along with ther.. A picket-pin
is fifteen-inch steel ROD, with swiy-
eled head and ring on one end, and a
sharpened point at the other; a simple
looking thing, which requires only nine
teen different operations in the making.
Picket pins, in case oc fire damage,
are about as safe risk for an insur-
ance company as pig iron in the river,
but not quite. However, with the ex-
ception of here and there a pin that
got it's point bent in the heat that night.
the stock of these articles at the arse
nal is about as good as ever. save where
the paint has been burned off. They
are being dug out, FURNISHED up and re-
stored, as good as new.
Here and there is found something
that has gone thru the fire with as little
damage as the picket-p;ns, but these
articles are not many, and they are not
worth much.
