Pomeroy, Jan. 9.-While one Of our
draymen was unloading the baggage
of the Thos. Lennon Theatrical Com
pany onto the trucks at the Illinois
Central depot, yesterday the west
bound flyer came thru, striking the rear
end of the dray wagon, partially de-
molishing it, and catching the truck on
one side, it strewed boxes, moving pict-
ure films and the wearing apparel of the
company for quarter Of a mile along
the track. A gas tank that was used
for operating the moving picture appa-
ratus, exploded with a loud report, tear
ing large hole in the depot platform.
The drayman had his wagon on the
main line instead of at the usual place,
and he asserts that the train approach
ed at lightning speed, giving no whis-
tie or other warning of its approach.
The loss to the Lennon company will
be about $500, the largest part of which
is the picture films. Because of the
many peculiar features connected with
the accident, it is quite doubtful at this
writing as to where the responsibility
rests.

REACHES SEAT OF rRousLE.
Don't Try to Cure Hemorrhoids Witt
External Application.

When it is such well known fact
that hemorrhoids or piles Is disease
originating the morbid dilatat1on OF
the veins of the lower part of the rec
tum. it seems incredible that people
afflicted with this painful trouble
should go on doctoring with external
salves and washes, when the diseased
parts can only be reached by an inward
application.
The suppositories used in Pyramid
Pile Cure are composed Of the most
soothing and healing oils and lotions
known to Materia Medica, and act on
the diseased veins and surrounding
tissues like magic, giving almost in
slant relief The dilated blood vessels
are relieved, the irritation of the mu-
cous membrane ceases and bleeding is
stopped.
The predisposing causes of piles are
such as produce fullness of the hem
orrhoidal veins and impede the return
of blood from them, such as consti-
patton. sedentary habits, city life.
pregnancy, corsets, ETC.; In 1act the
causes are all fully covered in a very
Interesting little book published by the
Pyramid Drug Co, Marshall, Mich,
and the same VIII ne SeHl lIee W ttiS
address upon application.
The general principles of treatment
are, according to the evident causes,
active habits, attention to diet, aid
other hygienic rules. ETC.. avoidance of
constipation and each night the in
lection of Pyramid suppository to
heal and cure the afflicted parts.
That this treatment has been effec-
tive is instanced by the testimony of
thousands Of people who have been
permanently cured and by the evidence
Of druggists: the case of Mr.. Samuel
Gouldie, SIG Moyamensing avenue
Philadelphia, is fair sample.
For twelve long years l suffered
terrible torture from piles l had been
under two surgical operations, once L..
Cleveland, Ohio, in the year 1895, and
once in Toledo, Ohio, in 1900, and also
tried a number of salves and ointments
from different DOCTORS I at last found
a permanent cure by only using two
fifty cent boxes Of Pyramid Pile Cure
The first two or three applications gave
me relief at once. 1 am now entirely
cured and thank God for finding such
a medicine as the Pyramid Pile Cure"

Special to Times-Republican.
Tama, jan 9.-Freight train No. 12S,
going east on the main line of the G. &
N. W., ran thru an open switch into
switch engine No. 412, which was back
ing up and drawing quite a string of
loaded coal cars. No one was injured
except Fireman Carlson, of the switch
engine, who sustained severe bruises
about the shoulders and legs. but no
fractures. Engineer Harris escaped
with few bruises. The cab Of the
switch engine was completely demol-
ished and how either escaped is Won
der. Nobody had time to jump. The
tender Of the switch engine was over
turned and torn from It's trucks and the
engine itself was partially derailed and
badly wrecked, the heavily loaded cars
which 1t was drawing bending the pilot
beam six or eight inches and crushing
in the front end Of the boiler. Only one
or two Of the cars left the track. En-
CINE No. 11O9, which drew the freight,
did not leave the track, but was injured
about the pilot and the side on which it
slid the switch engine off. The acct,
dent occurred in the yards about 2
o'clock. Owing to the fact that the ac-
cident occurred in the yards traffic was
not delayed at all, and the wreckage
was all cleared away this morning.

distance OF nine miles. Altho it is

ston Is the nearest point on the Crooked
Creek line to Fort Dodge. At this point
the roads turns south to run to Lehigh.
Such step would give Fort Dodge
another railroad connection with the
Northwestern which the Crooked Greek
line meets at Webster City, and for this
reason the construction OF the new line
would be OF no slight Importance to
this city. It Is rumored that efforts
are now being made by the Crooked
Greek people to arouse the interest OF

whatever extension may be made would
probably be done under the name Of the
Crooked Creek Railroad company, just

threatened to take a tragic turn was
ended at Nevada last evening when Mr..
Chas. Kempler, of this city. and Miss
Charity Utley, OF Chillicothe, Mo-. were
married at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Bates at 10 o'clock.

Miss Uuey came to Ames from Kan
sas where she had been keeping house
for one Mr.. Burke, for about years
and began work here in the employ of
Roll Brothers In their cafe. Shortly
afterwards she was followed here by
Burke who tried to induce her to marry
him. but on failing he tried to force
her to comply by threats against hsr
life. At this stage friends interfered
and compelled him to leave the city
under threats Of arrest.
Burke returned accompanied by Miss
Utley's brother and sister who favored
this marriage. Seeing no other way
out Of the difficulty Miss Utley told
but in the meantime friend of Miss
Utley's in Ames telephoned to the
county clerk at Nevada not to issue
any license to Burke. The clerk re-
fused and he came back to Ames and
threatened to kill the friend but could
not be found. In the evening Mr..
Kempler and Miss Utley drove to Ne
vada and were married as stated
above.
Burke is an old man. a widower with
children older than Miss Utley who is
about q years Of age. 1t is thought

tender at Judd's saloon, East Fifth and

tempt upon his life in the city jail
some time last night. He was found
this morning by Jailer Shortell. His
right leg was badly cut and bleeding.
The only instrument in the cell with
which he could have cut his leg was
small vial which was marked nerve
medicine" After taking the medicine
the vial had been used as a saw to
cut into his leg. presumably for the
purpose of severing an artery. The APP
pearance of the cut left no doubt in the
minds of City Physician Smith and
Jailer Shortell that the man had de-
lierately sawed away at his leg with the
glass. The cut did not reach the ar
terry, and Osburn will survive.

Thousands of women suffer from sys-l

such symptoms as cold feet and hands,
sick headache, palpitation OF the heart
and heavy feelings in the stomach.
Then begins series OF experiments.
They take medicine for sick headache
They take medicine for nervous prosTa-1
ton, for palpitation of the heart, for!
ldyspepsis. None Of these medicines do,
any good because they do not reach the!
cause Of the complaint.
Peruna at once mitigates all these
leymptoms by removing the cause.
systemic cstarrh is the trouble. Sys-,
temic catarrh pervades the whole sys-'

every function. No permanent cure can

A Rock island Rumor.

Special to TimeS-Repupucan.
FIT. Dodge, Jan. 9.-Those who have
an ear inclined to railroad rumors are
taking some little stock in a report
which is going the rounds that It is the
Intention Of the Rock Island to build
line from Dows to Fort Dodge In the
near future. It is claimed for the pro-
posed new line that there is much to
say In its favor and little against 1t.
Dows is a little town east OF the city
and is on the Burlington, Cedar Rapids
e Northern. The road is controlled by
the Rock Island. It is claimed that the
building Of this short connection would
give Fort Dodge direct connection with
the Chicago and Minneapolis grain
route. It would give this city more
direct lire to many southern towns, as
Burlington and Clinton and would Sc
cure for the Rock Island share of
Fort Dodge business to Minneapolis and
Duluth, which 1t now must handle in a
roundabout way. In short, 1t is said
that the line would prove OF great adj
vantage to both Fort Dodge and the
Rock Island.
