Columbus Laboratories Were Conducting a
School of Instruction in the Making of Liquors.
Those Arrested Say They Are Glad of It.

That is against the law. But we were
told by the authorities in Washington
that we might make mash under the
circumstances, but not use 1t. We do
not use the mash. Our desire is that
a ruling be given in the matter ana
in the meantime we will take the prop
err steps to secure legislation allow
ing an academy of this kind to make
a mash When the law regarding the
mash was enacted there were no such
institutions as ours and consequently
there was no provision made for such

To-day's arrests are doubtless the
outgrowth of a bill for injunction filed
recently in the United States District
Court against DIR. Evans, DR.. Ehrmann
former city chemist; United States
charging them with conducting school
where the pupils were taught to manu-
facture limitations of various liquors
and cordials. A suit for $4,000 dam

taught how to manufacture runs, gins,
bitters, brandies, cordials and specials

YOU WILL BE ALL
SMILES AGAIN.
Forget Your Stomach and You'll Have
a Santa Claus Face.
HOW TO DO 1T.

If there is one thing more than all
others that will give a man forlorn
and friendless appearance and make
him morbid and cranky" and dis
agreeable, that thing is dyspepsia. 1t
makes one forget his friends and be-
come morose and irritable. He Is so
wrapped up in his own misery that he
Relieved of this terrible and depres-
sing ailment, he again becomes a good
fellow and a man among men.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are be-
yond question the most effective and
popular remedy ever offered to the
sufferers of this terrible disease. The
thousands and thousands of cures
they have brought about and the
enormous increase of their sales fully
attest the truth of this statement.
They are above all, a natural
remedy. They possess exactly the same
propertie that the gastric juices and
other digestive fluids of the stomach
possess and they actually do the di-
gestive work of the stomach and
enable that organ to rest and recupe-
rate and become sound and well. They
act in a mild, natural manner and
cause no disturbance in the digestive
organs. They prevent any fermenta-
ton of the food which causes sour
stomach. In fact, under their influence
the subject forgets that he has a
stomach and his resulting cheerful
ness presents a great contrast to his
former detection.
Millions Of boxes of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets are sold annually and
they are but in the dawn of their
popularity. Every mail brings letters
of thanksgiving from grateful ones
who have been cured of this terrible
disease. The following is one of hun
dreds received each week.
Rev. j. r. Hoag of Wymore, Neb.,
writes: For six years 1 have been
tvoubled with dyspepsia. Last
fall became very much alarmed at
some symptoms of heart trouble and
came TO believe there was SYM
nathetic relation between the two
diseases. or rather, that the stomach
trouble was the cause OF the heart dis
turbances. / hit upon Stuarts Dys-
pepsla Tablets for a remedy and in
vested a dollar and a half for three
boxes which lasted me three months

BY r. NJ. Larner.

Washington, Dec. misrepresentation
Maddox has signalized his appointment
as a member of the minority of the
Committee on Labor, by reviving the
question as to who is the legal parent
of the generally popular Rural Free
Delivery Service. During a speech in
the House of Representatives few
days ago. the Georgia member was dis
cussing the rural delivery service, and
he proceeded to give credit to former
Representative Tom Watson, the Geor-
gia philosopher and author for having
first called the attention of the Con-
gress to the subject.
This question has been thrashed out
so many times that it seems that Judge
Maddox might have permitted the vex-
ed problem to slumber where the Rec
ords of the House left it. and not re-
quired his colleague, Representative
Livingston, to forego the enjoyment of
a merry Christmas and a happy New
Year to delve into the musty records
of the Fifty-second Congress, to show
who made the original move towards
the establishment of the rural system.
Tom Watson has publicly claimed to
be the father of the movement, and
there are a dozen other men, who were
in Congress about the same time, who
have told their constituents and the
country that they are responsible for
this great and convenient privilege to
the rural populations of this country.
One might as well endeavor to try to
establish the ''age of Ann" as to try to
prove by any of the numerous claim
ants for rural delivery honors who did
the first legislative work in that direc-
ton. Judge Maddox, evidently, had no
intention of perverting the records, and
he did not discover his mistake until
he was afterward confronted with the
proceedings of the first session of the
Fifty-second Congress, May 81, 1892, by
| Col. Livingston.
Here is a brief history of the trans
action, as shown by the Congressional
| Record of that date:
The postoffice appropriation bill was
under consideration in the House. Col.

Washington, Oct. 31.-The pres
ident today issued his annual
Thanksgiving proclamation in the
following terms:
BY the Pfe-ident of the United
States Of America-A proclamation:
"The season is at hand when, ac-
cording to the customs of~our pee-
pie, it falls upon the president to
appoint day of praise and thanks
giving to God. During the last
year, the Lord has dealt beautifully
With US, giving US peace at home
and abroad, and the chance for our
citizens to work for their welfare
unhindered by war, famine and
plague. 1t behooves us not only
to rejoiee greatly because of what
hes been given us, but to accept it
with a solemn sense of responsible
ty, realizing that uuder heaven it
rests with ourselves to show that we
are worthy to use Alright what has
thus been entrusted to, our care.
"In no other place, and at no 9TH
er time, has the experiment of gov
ernment of the people, by the peo-
pie and for the people b. en- tried on
so vast seals as here in our own
country in the openirg G years of the
Goth century. Failure would not
only be a dreadful thing, for us, but
a dreadful thing for all mankind,
because it would mean loss of hope
for all who believe in. the power
and the righte BUSINESS of liberty.
Therefore in thanking God for
the mercies extended to US in the
past, we beseech Him that he may
not Withhold them in the future, and
our hearts may be aroused to war
steadfastly for good and against all
forces Of evil, public and private.
We pray for strength and light, SO
that in the coming years we may,
with cleanliness, fearlessness and
wisdom, do our allotted work on
earth in such manner as to show
that we are not altogether unworthy
of the blessings we have received.

Portland, Nov. 1.-Po-tland Or

Portland. Nov. Portland Or
egonian: A brilliant specimen of
the aurora borealis was seen in
Portland early yesterday morning.
It's presence had aldeady been no.
ticed by its effset upon the telegraph
wires, and while a privileged few
were admiring~.its beautiful glory,
the operators were hurling anathe-
mas at the electrical force which
was playing havoc with their mes
sages.
As consequences of the visit of q
stranger from the northern sphere
a number of messages accumulated
over all the lines from Chicago to
San Francisco. Around ST. Paul and
Winnipeg In particular, the electro
cal force of the aurora borealis was
felt. South of Portland's latitude,
it was not felt to any marked de-
gree.
The spectacle witnessed by a few
late travellers is said to eclipse any
celestial display ever seen in this
city. The whole northern heavens
were lit up with the glow, while the
vari-colored aurora sweeping over
the sky looked like rainbow seen
through prism. The phenomena
lit up the heavens for fully twenty
minutes. It was nearly 4 o'clock
when the last rays died out. after
parting burst Of spl .ndnr-
Just how the autpra orealis gen.
crates enough emery to send ticks
which sound mucn Ike those Of
another instrument, is something
which as yet to be explained. But
every operator in Canada and the
northern part of the United States
fears the coming of the borealis.
The only method used by the tele-
graph companies is to form round
circuit, similar to telephone line.
But as the electrical ticks and taps
do not come with any regularity 1t
is difficult to counter balance the eff
feet of the dreaded borealis. The
result is similar to the crossing OF
two wires.
