NOW is THE TIME TO USE

Cures Catarrh and Prevents
Colds. Nc Stomach Dosing,
Just Breathing.
At this season of the year,
catarrhal troubles are very pre-
valent, and nearly every per-
son suffers to a certain extent.
Catarrh is actually the result
of a succession of colds and can
be easily prevented if the pro-
per treatment is followed.
Hyomei is a natural yet
scientific cure for the colds and
grip troubles that lead to cat
arrh, as we'll as a positive cure
for the colds and grip troubles
that lead to catarrh, as we'll as
a positive cure for the disease
itself.
The balsamic air of Hyomei
breathed through the small
pocket inhaler that comes with
every outfit is filled with germ
killing and health-givin g quail
ties that penetrate to the min
utest air cells of the head,
throat and lungs. 1t kills all
catarrhal germs, frees the mu-
cous membrane from poisonous
microbes, and makes a perfect
and complete cure of catarrh.
The complete outfit costs only
81, while extra bottles of Ho-
omei can be procured for SOC.
Elliott & Harvey sell Hyomei
on the ''no cure, no pay" plan,
and will refund the money if it
fails to give perfect satisfac-
ton. You take no risk what
ever in using Hyomei. It is
the only treatment sold under
a guarantee Of this nature
where a leading local druggist
agrees to return the money if
the treatment fails to cure.

csc officer and man are every whit as
good as the average Russian. Wheth-
er the Japanese is quite so stubborn
fighter as the Russian time alone will
tell. but there can be no doubt that
while the Russians have a great con-
tempt for the Japanese, the latter, on
the other hand, have some consider
able respect for Russian prowess, The
naval strength of Russia in Far East
ern waters is now, so far as first class
fighting ships are concerned, quite
equal to that of the Japanese; but the
Japanese possess a huge secondary
fleet that might be brought into most
effective use after the first line had
fought a Gripping fight. The Russians
are, however, UNNECESSARILY inferior
to the Japanese in regard to coaling
and dockyard facilities and bases Of
operation. And then the much vaunt-
ed Japanese patriotism? That, too,
like their true fighting capabilities,
has yet to be put to the test, and until
it is done no one can say how the Jap
anese forces and public will behave in
the face of reverses, no matter how un.
important they may be.

DEALT
BY DYNAMITE
twenty-five People are Hurled to
Instant Annihiliation.
WRECKCAUSED EXPLOSION
Two Freight Tiains Crash at Small
Station in Utah and Deadly
Cargo ScatterS Ruin.

twenty-five persons have been kill
ed, fifteen Others injured, several, it IS
believed fatally, and a great amount
of railroad property destroyed by an
explosion of a car load of dynamite
at Jackson, Utah, a telegraph station
on the western end Of the Great Og-
den-Lucien cut off on the Southern Pa
cifc railroad.
The explosion was caused by col
lision between two freight trains, du,!,
it is said, to the failure of the air
brakes apparatus to operate. Eight OF
the dead and five of the injured are
Americans; the others are Greek Ia
borers.
The dead are 7. w. Burke, section
foreman, his wife and three children;
J. W. Burke, a former general fore
man; w. l.. Holler, messenger, for
merly of Andrew, Ind; Owen Der
mody, conductor, formerly of Beaver
Dam, Wis. Seventeen Greek laborers.
The explosion was terrific. Every
thing within a radius. of half a mile
was wrecked. The town of Terrace,
Is miles to the north, was shaken as
though by an earthquake. Window
panes in the station at Colon, Is miles
away, were shattered, ana the sound
OF the explosion was heard in Ogden

disaster The ground upon which the
trains were standing was torn up for
over a thousand feet, leaving a great
excavation 80 feet in depth. fragments
Of dozen freight, cars and two en-
gines were thrown for incredible dis
tances over the surrounding country,
the station building was blown tc
splinters and the dead and injured
were scattered or hundreds of feet in
all directions, most of them having
their clothing torn Off Telegraph
wires and poles were torn down for
thousand feet and the first knowledge
Of the disaster came from Terrace, 10
miles away, the operator at that place
reporting to headquarters that he saw
an immense cloud of smoke ascend
from Jackson and spread out at a
great height.
A relief train with doctors, nurses
and stretchers was hurrindly dispatch
ed from Ogden. The train returned
with the injured who were placed in
the company's general hospital.
The great loss of life among the
Greeks is accounted for by the fact
that they occupied Quitting cars
which were standing near the spot
where the explosion occurred
Of the forty-six persons at Jackson
at the time Of the explosion, only nine
escaped death or injury. The great
railroad trestle over the lake was not
damaged, the explosion occurring a
short distance beyond the western end
Of that structure.

Kinq Edward and the Pope's Pen.

the principal Of the Wimbledon Catho-

sign his name in the visitors book,

the king waived it aside, and asked if
it were not true that the college pos

STORIES ABOUT EAGLES.
A Battle Between One of These Birds
and a STAG.

and Stag.
Some years ago Sir Charles Nor
daunt witnessed in Scotland strange
battle between an eagle and a stag,
which, says the Scotsman, completely
dispels any theory that the ornitholQ-
gist may put forward as to eagles not
attacking large animals. The bird
singled out from a herd one particular
buck, which it succeeded in driving
from the rest. 1t struck the animal
repeatedly with it's powerful wings,
knocked it down and finally killed it.
Baron Schroeder witnessed a still
more remarkable spectacle. An eagle
attacked a fawn which was one of
herd in the highlands. The cries OF
the little one were answered by its
dam, which sprang upon the eagle and
struck it repeatedly with it's forefeet.
FaWn deer and eagle rolled headlong
down a declivity and the bird was dis
lodged from it's hold and the fawn res
cued. But Sir Kenneth Mackenzie
knows a more thrilling story than
either of these, for, according to re-
port, an eagle was rent in twain dur
ing battle in his forest of Gairloch.
Fixing it's talons in the quarters of
a roe the bird was dashed against
tree, to branch of which it endeav-
ored to hold to stay the fight OF it's
captive. The bird was halved in an
instant
Many traditions are extant as to

children. In the north of England the
legend is perpetuated by the name OF
many an inn, the sign "The Eagle and
the Child" being common. The most
recent case bearing close scrutiny APP
pears to be one which occurred in
South Africa.
A Boer farmer living on the veldt
just beyond Barberton, whose stock
had been harried by eagles, lay in am
bush for the aerial robbers and saw
one of them descend and carry off the
fiye-year-old child of one of his KafTir
servants. He shot the bird. which,
with the child still STITCHED in its
grip, fell into thorn bush. The bird
was dead when picked up, but the
babe was little hurt. The eagle meas
ured nine feet from tip to tip of the
wings. Other stories are told to
similar end, but appear less credible
than this one.
Two eagles will stalk a covert in
concert. While one conceals itself the
other beats about the bushes with a
great screaming, driving out its quar-
ry for the hidden eagle to swoop down
and make an end of it. An even more
insidious method has been observed,
when an eagle, detecting a sheep on
the edge of a precipice, flew at it,
screaming shrilly, and with forceful
beat of wing hurled it into the valley
below, where it could devour it at it's
leisure
There is a good reason for believing
after all, the ancient legend as to the
manner in which Eschylus, the Greek
poet, met his death. 1t is said that an
eagle dropped turtle on his bald
head Algerian travellers are familiar
with the sight of eagles carrying tur-
ties and tortoises to a height and
dropping them upon rocks to break the
creatures shells and render the flesh
accessible.
