Marvellous Escape from
Death +!
CELERY
COMPOUND
Does a Wondrous Work for a Lady
Who Was Almost Crazed with
Pain and Suffering.

1t is well known that terrible rheumatism,
~sciatica, and neuralgia cause more helpless
ness, acute suffering, and agony, than any of
the other diseases that afllict humanity. The
great medicinal virtues of Paine's Celery Com
pound make it the only trustworthy specific
for the cure of all forms of rheumatism and
neuralgia. Thousands OF. strong testimonial
letters from the most prominent people of the
land, prove that Paine's Celery Compound
has banished these terribly fatal troubles when
all other treatment has failed. Mrs. Mar
garet Bethel, of Brainerd, Mimi, after thirty
years OF agonizing tortures had a desire to end
her life, it it was the will of Heaven; she al
most prayed for the time to lay it down.
Heaven-directed, she made use of Palne's
Celery Compound, and is enjoying true life
once more. She says:-
For thirty years I have been a great suf-
terer from neuralgia in the head, and also
with rheumatism in the whole body. l began
taking Paine's Celery Compound and soon
found l was much better. Before taking the
Compound, my life was such a burden that l
almost prayed TO lay it down. I was bedfast
every two weeks with horrible pain in the
head, back, and neck, until I was almost
crazed. | am able to do harder work and
more of it today than for twenty-five years. I
am really enjoying life again, thanks to
Paine's Celery Compound. I am satisfied
that my life has been prolonged many years
by its use.D

A DISGUSTING SPECTACLE.
Boys Staggering About the Streets in
Drunken Helplessness.

1t will undoubtedly surprise and hui
initiate the respectable people OF the
city to learn that some creature in the
guise of humanity has become so lost
70 all sense of shame and decency
as to supply boys, mere children,
with liquor until they become help
less from it's effects and in that con
dition appear on the streets. Accord
ing to different persons this has oc-
Cured a number of times recently and
many have been compelled to wit
ness the sad spectacle. Last night
witnessed a repetition and the sight
of a boy not to exceed 10 years Old
tumbling and rolling on the sidewalk
of one of the city's main thorough
fares after the ann Of the most
confirmed sot was the subject for rude
jest from the unfeeling ones and sad
comment from those impressed with
the enormity OF the occurrence and
its possibility of a sad ending.
1t is hard to conceive that anything
pretending to be in human form should
become so possessed of the spirit OF
avarice and greed as to be guilty of an
offense so heinous as the taking OF
money from children for liquor to be
drank by themselves. To their credit
be it said that none of the reputable
saloon men of the city endorses the
action of the fiend and the doors OF
all are closed to minors. They con-
denim and reprobate it as much as.
any one and for the sake of the bust
ness in which they are engaged hope
that the guilty one may be discovered
and dealt with as he deserves. 1t
has been suggested that the police and
county authorities make it their spe-
cial object to ascertain the identity OF
the wretch or wretches and see to it
that they are condignly punished for
their %infraction of the statutory and
moral laws. L

RENEWs H A
State Auditor After Illegal Insurance
Companies Again.

According to Helena newspapers the
state auditor has started on another
crusade to secure compliance with the
law requiring insurance companies do
ing business in the state to secure a
| license before they undertake to issue
| policies. For the benefit of those
who are carrying insurance or may
desire to do so later the auditor has
given out a list of the companies
that are trying to do business without
the necessary authority.
The companies without the pale are
said to be these: Miller's National
Insurance company of Chicago, Mich
igan Millers' Mutual Fire Insurance
company of Lansing, Standard of New
York, Imperial of London, Standard
Insurance company of London, Metro
politan Lloyds of Chicago, Northwest
ern Lloyds of Chicago, National Fire
Lloyds of Chicago, American Fire I'm
derwriters of Chicago, North River
Insurance company of New York,
Nassau Fire Insurance of Brooklyn,
Globe & Rutgers Fire Insurance OF
New York, S~tuyvesant Fire Insurance
company of New York, National Fire
and Marine Insurance company of
Elizabeth, Union Fire Insurance COM
pany of Chicago, and the Mercantile
Fire Insurance company of Chicago.
The names OF the agents represent
ing these soutlaw companies have
not yet been made public by the audi
tor, but notice is given that they
will be unless the companies comply |
with the law and secure the necessary
licenses.
Under the law relating to the con-
duct of insurance companies any
agent of any insurance company not
to transact business in the
state who solicits or secures applica-
tons for insurance or delivers policies
for any such companies, or who may
adjust losses for them, or in any
manner, directly or Indirectly aids in
the transaction of business by them,
conviction must be found gull
ty of felony. In view of the severity
of the punishment provided it would
seem strange that anybody should be
found willing to represent a company
or companies that refuse to comply
with the law.

he attention of those who are carry
ing insurance policies of any kind to

UPHOLDS The TAX
Cigarette Law Declared Constitu.
tional and Valid by the
Supreme Court.
Business Cannot Be Protected by the
0verdone Original Package
subterfuge.

Des Moines, Iowa, Feb. 3.-The su.
prone court Of Iowa has decided that the
law levying a tax Of $500 a year on cigar.
cite dealers is constitutional and valid
The case came up from the Marshall coun-
ty court, whose decision was affirmed
Justice Weaver said Of the contention thai
the state cannot tax an original package
shipped from another state until it is solo
to the consumer:
.'As an original proposition, submitted
to common sense, there would seem to be
no room for doubt that this question
should be answered in the negative. II
must be admitted, however, that authori
ties are not wanting which afford the ap-
pellants some ground to believe that any
scheme or device-no matter how trans.
parent the frauds sufficient to battle the
power Of a sovereign state so long as II
bears the magic legend Original package.
This theory has been founded upon what
has been supposed to be the holding o.
the court of last resort in the cases al
ready referred to. but as we view it these
decisions do not justify the deductions
made"
The court declares virtually that the
subterfuge of the Original package rule
is an attempt at fraud, and the cigarette
business cannot be thus protected.

BOUNDARY MINING PROPERTIES
West Superior Owners Hear of lmportan
:. New Discoveries.


p. New Discoveries.
WEST SUPERIOR, WIs.-Mining men
who are interested in the Island Fails
district of Western Ontario are expecting
great things from there as two true fis
sure veins have been found. English cap
italists are installing tWenty-stamp mill
at the Elizabeth mine in that district. De-
velopment has been made to a depth Of
500 or 600 feet and the value Of the ore
bed exposed is estimated at over million
dollars
An important discovery has been made
in the Sturgeon Lake district, near what
is known as Mud Lake, near which SUI
perior and Duluth people have holdings.
On the surface vein was found which
was seemingly a small stringer of quartz.
very rich in gold, but apparently hardly
worth working. The owners, however,
sunk forty-foot shaft and have struck
a 3h foot vein Of as great richness as the
stringer on the surface.
Local mining men say that prospects for
the Rainy Lake and Lake Of the Woods
district seem brighter now than at any
time since the discovery Of gold there.
Although the public whipping idea has
not been resorted to by the municipal
court since the agitation against it last
fall, the court threatens to revive it for
the benefit of boys in the tenth ward.
Some boys there have violated the parole

cases is begging investigated to see whether
he deserves to be whipped as an example
to the rest.
It begins to look as if the council and
citizens committees has been a little too
harsh with the Highland power company,
| which wants to develop the ST. Louis
| waterpower and sell power here. The
| company has failed to make any new
proposition since its original one was
turned down so arbitrarily by the council.
Some of the citizens are now wondering
| whether they have not acted against their
own interests in recommending that the
council demand several points which
might not have any special force any
| way. If this city should be behind Du-
luth in getting the benefit of the develop
ment of the water power it is realized
that harm will be done.

Riot Call Sent In While Medics "Resur-
rected Corpse"
KEOKUK, IOWA.-After overpowering
a squad of armed policemen and a guard,
$50 students Of the Keokuk medical COL
lege dug up Professor Cozad- who was
buried for a seven days sleep in an
alleged cataleptic state.
The grave was under tent in Main
street. The street was quiet until short
ly after midnight, when the students, in
company file, marched down the street
to the tent. The watchrnan was over
powered and bound, without being hurt.
Five students began to throw earth from
the grave, while the others held the
Waterman and guarded against interfer-
ence. Some one sent In a riot call, and
the police, in charge of Captain Dietz, re-
sponded. When they reached the grave
it was half emptied of earth. Clubs in
hand, the police attacked the students.
The students formed a few flying wedges
and drove the policemen back, knocking
them down several times. The officers
then drew revolvers.
The students, nothing daunted, formed
a mass play and kept the policemen from
the grave. The five resurrectionists die
not stop digging. The policemen were
afraid to shoot into the crowd, and in ter
minutes the professor was taken from the
grave and carried to the college.
Professor Cozad was acting under the
management Of st. Louis man. AL
though he said he was in cataleptit
state, he moved several inches In his
coffin while the students were digging hin
up. The professor breathed heavily, and
the students say, he acted as though hi
was frightened IL
The grave was so arranged that the
! corpse could be seen through large
tubes by: spectators, who were willing t,
pay admission.

Home Company Shoe Plant at Webster
City is Success.
WEBSTER CITY, IOWA-The North
western Felt Shoe company resumed
operations yesterday, after a month of
idleness during which the factory under
went extensive repairs. A dozen new ma
chimes were added and the capacity of the
plant doubled, making it's output 1000
pairs of felt shoes and slippers a day.
This record is considered good, as the
factory has been in operation only since
last June at which time it was organized
by local capitalists who sent for George
McKown of the famous Dolgeville, New
York, factory to take charge. The cap
ital, which was 100000, has been in
creased to 100000. 49,. .....
The Farley ditch, which is to be
tWenty-six miles in length and will cost
$4,000, is assured. This huge ditch-or
properly canal-wil drain the northwest
portion of Hamilton county and also por-
lions of Hardin and Wright counties It's
course runs through sloughs and lowlands
which contain hundreds and hundreds of
acres of land in which a pillow has never
been worked. Upon the completion of the
ditch these rich lands will be brought in
to cultivation.
