How To Prevent Group.

1t will be good news to the mothers
of small children to learn that Group
can be prevented. The first sign of
Group is hoarseness. A day or two
before the attack the child becomes
hoarse. This is soon followed by a
peculiar rough cough. Give Cham
berlain's Congh Remedy freely as
soon as the child becomes hoarse, or
even after the rough cough appears,
and it will dispel all symptoms OF
Group. In this way all danger and
anxiety may be avoided. This rem
edy Is used by many thousands of
mothers and has never been known to
fail. 1t is, in fact, the only remedy
that can always be depended upon
and that is pleasant and safe to take.

ATImeIy Suggestion.

This is the season of the year when
the prudent and careful housewife re-
plenishes her supply of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. 1t is certain to be
needed before the winter is over, and
results are much more prompt and
satisfactory when it is kept at hand
and given as soon as the cold is con-
tracted and before it has become
settled in the system. In almost every
instance a severe cold may be warded
off by taking this remedy freely as
soon as the first indication of cold
appears. There is no danger in Civ
ing it to children as it contains no
harmful substance. 1t is pleasant to
take-both adults and children like
it. Buy it and you will get the best.
1t always cures. For sale by A. III.

There was large attendance at the
Presbyterian church last Sunday
morning to hear the resignation OF
the pastor Rev. J. F. Hinkhouse. The
following action was taken by unan-
imous vote:
Be it resolved by the members of
said church assembled this 9th day
of December 1903.
FIRST: That it is with great sor-
row that we have heard the request of
our pastor for the dissolution of the
PASTORAL relations which have been
so satisfactory during the past six
years or more.
SECOND: That we wish to express
to the Presbytery of Council Bluffs
that we are in all respects perfectly
satisfied with the relations as they
now exist, and that we have no de-
sire that they be disturbed by Presby-
terry.
THIRD: However if Mr.. Hinkhouse
still feels that it is his duty to accept
the call to the Second Presbyterian
Church of Sioux City, when Presby-
terry shall meet to consider this matter,
we wish Presbytery to understand
that we regretfully yield to the wishes
of Mr.. Hinkhouse in the matter, and
can only hope that it will result in his
good and to the good of the church.

AWFUL CALAMITY AT CHICAGO.
Fire In Opera House Brings Death
to Over 800 People Mostly
Women and Children.

CHICAGO, Dec. 3O,-Women and
little children fought in vain for life
at fire in the Iroquois theater, the
newest, largest and safest theater in
Chicago, this afternoon. At O'Clock
Coroner Traeger reported by actual
count 637 dead, and the CHASTITY work
of the firemen was not even then end
ed. 1t is estimated that 300 people
were killed in ten minutes.
The theater was crowded by mat
inee' audience, mostly of women and
children. In the midst of the perfor-
nance, while the stage was alight
with beauty and color, the first alarm
of fire was given, and the next instant
great wave of flame shot out over
the theater. The resulting scenes
were indescribable. Hundreds were
trampled to death in the mad rush for
escape from that blazing furnace.
Many bodies were scorched and black
ened by the flames after the life had
already been trampled out. Several
people were burned to death, others
were suffocated by gas thrown into
the auditorium by the explosion of a
gas tank, but by far the larger major
ity persisted in the wild stampede for
safety.
Their clothing is torn to rags or
burned to cinders and their faces
have been trampled into an unrecog-
niZable pulp by the heels of the crowd
that trampled them down as they fled
for safety.
The accounts of the origin of the
fire are conflicting and none of them
are certain, but the best reason given
is that an electric wire near the lower
part of piece of drop scenery broke
and caused a short circuit setting fire
to the scenery. She fire spread rap
idly to the front of the stage, causing
the chorus, which was on the stage, to
flee to the wings, screaming. The fire
in itself up to this time was not SER
ious and possibly could have been
checked had not the asbestos curtains
failed to work.
The fire, given tlue through which
strong draft was formed aided by
the doors which had been thrown open
in the front of the theater, the flames
shot roaring, tongue shaped, through
the opening over the heads of the
people on the first floor, almost lick
ing the faces of those in the first
balcony, and smothered many where
they sat.
Immediately followed by the rush of
flames, came an explosion, which lift
ed the entire roof of the theater from
the wall, SCATTERING the great sky light
into fragments. A hail of glass, the
tottering galleries, the quaking of the
building and the cry of "fire" from
several persons in the rear, started
the panic. The entire audience rose
as one person and made for the doors.
This is the theater in which Ross
Kennels wasIplaying with the OF chestra.
His relatives here have not heard from
him direct, but Bert McLeran, who
was in Chicago and at the opera house
at the time of the fire, returned
home this morning, gives the inform
alton that he saw Ross after the fire.
A classmate of Harry Watts at the
Chicago University lost his life.

HOW ALASKA RIVERS FREEZE


rhe waters of Alaska freeze from the
bottom. one may be gliding along OH
a CLASSY lake with a gorgeous sun
overhead, In crisp, invigoratlng at
uosphere. There II not sign OF ice
except high up on the mountain sides.
A little circle appears ON the silvery
surface, as though tiny pebble had
fallen in.--then another, and still an
otber. There isn't sound, and not
even a mosquito to disturb the placid
pcture, but still the little circles come.
Presently CLASSY bead bubbles
about In the center of one of the
widening circles, then larger one, and
SIN larger. Those beads are tiny ice
globues They come bobbing up In
rapid succession, then several together.
IN half an hour the surface IL covered.
,rhey have grown AS large as a butter
bean, and nearly the same shape, but
crystal clear. In an hour they are as
large as a lady's watch, and each one
has little grains OF sand sticking to IL;
some have large pieces OF gravel sealed
up inside.
The old sojourner will row for the
shore when he sees these signs upon
the water for he knows that IN few
hours the whole surface will be a mass
of sush ice, from which II VIII be i'm
possible to extricate a rowboat, and
equally impossible TO leave II.
By morning the cold air of the upper
world will have welded all this mass
together.
IL one will take the trouble to peep
into some shallow rivulet at this time
of year he may see nature In her
workshop making winter. Each tiny
gran Of sand first gwen coat of ce.
grain OF sand is first given a coat OF
ice. The coat grows thicker on the
upper side.
Finally It gets so thick that the buoy
ancy of the Ice overbalances the weight
of the gravel the mass leaves the bot
tom, aud, reaching stratum OF
warmer water the ice melts little,
releasing the gravel, and 1t hobs merrl-
" on the surface. The fact of Its be-
ing anchored to the gravel at the bot
