Richard Scurr was in town the first
of the week from Roche Harbor. He
and his brother have demonstrated to
their entire satisfaction that alfalfa can
bs successfully grown ip this county.
They have about two-thirds of an acre
on their. fine farm there, which they
sowed, in drills, four years ago as an
experiment. The second year Its ap-
pearance was so discouraging that they
were tempted to plow it up, but con-
cluded to try It another season. 1t
yielded quite well, and this year the
frst crop, already cut, was about three
and half tons, and two more crops
will be cut. 1t grew to height of four
and half feet this season.

1t would be graceful thing for the
teachers of the county, either individ-
ually or collectively, to make little
financial contribution for the benefit of
their fellow teacher, Mrs. c. w. Ham
mond, who lost her home by fire last
week while absent engaged in school
work. The ISLANDER Is informed that
everything in the house was destroyed
furniture, utensils, clothing, provise
ions and about $40 in money. Assist
ance is asked for not by members of
the family, but by their friends, who
know the need of it and know that it
will be gratefully received. Any con-
tributions sent to Mrs w. H. Dexter,
West Sound, will be properly account
ed for and worthily used.

An excellent sermon on the life and
work of John Wesley was delivered by
Rev. DR.. Harpst at the Methodist
church last Sunday morning. In the
evening a "Children's Day" program
was very creditsbly rendered by the
children and young people of the
church. The floral decorations were
beautiful, especially the bank OF roses
back of the pulpit. A feature of the
program which was much appreciated
was a poetic "Tribute to John Wes-
ley" written by Hon. w. III. Thacker
and dedicated to Rev. DR.. Harpst. 1t
was we'll read by Milo Smoots, AS fol-
lows:
Great Wesley dead1 oh no. he lives
Triumphant through the changing years.
Empires and Kingdoms pass away,
But stronger and brighter he appears.
His mighty works are yet alive,
His glorious teachings. still hold swayt
To lead our footsteps on toward God,
Aud guide our thoughts from day to day.
The torch he lit and held aloft,
Bright blazing in his strong right hand,
Is borne by millions now and shines
On every sea and every land.
The gospel tn at he preached is known
And thundered forth in every tongue,
In loud no osannas-praising God
Proclaiming truth. denouncing wrong
Live on, live on, oh mighty chief
Time steals no laurels from thy brow,
While lives the name OF Calvary,
Thy name shall be as bright as now. -

The jury in the case Of r. W. Hughes
VS.. the Iowa Central Railway Com
pany, after being out twenty-five min
utes, returned verdict at o'clock
Wednesday evening, awarding the
plaintiff a verdict emitting him to re-
cover the full amount claimed, $1,999.
The case will be appealed by the rail-
road company.
The damage case that has just been
brought to q close is the second trial.
The case was first heard at the August
term before Judge Caswell, who took
it from the jury. In doing SO. however,
he gave the plaintiff's counsel permis-
sion to dismiss the case without preju-
dice, and it was begun again for the
October term. In instructing the jury
Wednesday afternoon Judge Burnham
held that under the evidence the plain
tiff was an employe of the company and
entitled to the company's protection
under section 2071. making rail-
road companies liable for the
negligence of co-employes. In
the first case Judge Caswell held just
the opposite and that, according to the
evidence introduced at the time. he was
not such an employe as entitled him
to the protection provided for in the
section referred to.
In the second hearing of the evidence
the plaintiff went more into detail IN
his position, especially as it referred
TO the hazardous duties Of a car re-
pairer. in crossing tracks and going
around engines.
r. w. Hughes. the plaintiff In the
case, lives at a12 West Nevada street,
and was injured Nov. 8, 1902. when

IL Ayomei Does Not Cure YOU OF
catarrh, Say Mcbride & Will.
In advertising that they will refund
the money to any one purchasing Hy-
omei outfit who can say that 1t mas
done them no good in the treatment of
catarrh. Mcbride & Will mean exactly
what the guarantee says.
OF course the percentage of cures by
Hyomei is nearly one hundred or else
they could not afford to make this un-
usual offer. But II the treatment should
not be adapted to your case there will
be no questions or quibblings when you

That the beginning of catarrh is due
70 the presence of germs in the air
passages IL now admitted by every
phyeician. It stands to reason that ca
tArrh can not be cured unless these
gorms are first destroyed. The Hyomei
treatment kills the catarrh germs even
n the minutest air cells, soothes and
heals the irritated mucous membrane
and makes complete and lasting cures
In cases that have resisted the usual
methods OF treatment.
Catarrh can not be cured by medi-
cines administered thru the stomach.
Hyomei is the only natural method and
It has made cures that seem miracu
lous. The outfit costs but 81 and con-
sists of an inhaler which will last a
lifetime and sufficient Hyomei for sew
eral weeks treatment. Additional bot
ties OF Hyomei can be procured for
30 cents.
Mcbride & Will give their personal
guarantee with every Hyomei outfit
they sell to refund the money IL it
does not cure. There is no risk what
ever to the purchaser OF Hyomei.

NEW LIGHT ON OLD MIRACLE.
The Burning Bush" Seen by Moses
Recently Discovered and II May Be
Exhibited at tho Worlds Fair.

The Burning Bush Seen by Moses
Recently Discovered and II May Be
Exhibited at the Worlds Fair.
And the angel of the Lord ap-
peared unto him in flame of fire
out of the midst of a bush. and he
looked, and. behold, the bush
burned with fire. and the bush was
not consumed. And Moses said, Il
will now turn aside. and see this
great sight, why the bush is not
burnt" And when the Lord saw
that he turned aside to see. God
called unto him out of the midst of
the bush, and said, Moses,
Moses!" And he said, Here am
II. And he said. Draw not nigh
hither: put off thy shoes from off
thy feet; for the place whereon
thou standest is holy ground"
Exodus LII-2-5.
It probably will not be the identical
"burning bush" that Moses saw that
may be exhibited at the worlds fair.
But there Is little doubt that 1t Is
Identical with the species spoken Of in
Holy Writ. and SO far as known 1t Is
the only one In existence.
Authentic reports from London state
that an English botarist discovered In
the hot and arid plains of Arabia
remarkable shrub that can be mono
other than the "burniGg BUSH de-
scribed by Moses. Tn. Englishman
procured the wonderful shrub and
caused 1t to be conveyed to the famed
Kew Gardens on the Thames at Lon
don.
Frederic w. Taylor. chief of agricul-
ture and horticulture. has commits
stoned Joseph H. Hadkinson, superin-
tendent of the outdoor planting for the
universal exposition, to correspond
with the Kew authorities and to OBJ
tain II possible this wonderful biblical
plant. In the event that he is success
full, Mr. Hadkinson will place the shrub
on the north side of agricultural hill.
near the great floral clock.
Numerous English and French sci-
entists who have seen the shrub de-
clare 1t to be identical with the burn
ing bush which Moses saw burst into
flame at his approach and blaze for
some time without being consumed.
The discovery Of the remarkable speci-
men is accepted by biblical students as
confirming Moses account ana chroW-
ing light ON one Of the most famous OF
the Old Testament miracles.
The plant at Kew has attained
height of about six feet. It possesses
the remarkable property Of exhaling an
inflammable gas from Its flowers,
which. on being approached by light,
takes fire and burns brightly for few
moments. The foliage and flowers re-
main uninjured while the gas is biaz-
ing because Of the sap In the plant.
In tho hot deserts Of Arabia. whore
the plant naturally grew more vigorous
than at Kew. larger quantity Of gas
was exhaled. and the fierce rays Of
the sun, 1t Is said, often set fire to the
gas.
