Blood

Feed pale girls on SCOTS
Emulsion.
We do not need to give all
the reasons why SCOTS
Emulsion restores the strength
and flesh and color of good
health to those who suffer
from sick blood.
The fact that it is the best
preparation of Cod Liver Oil,
rich in nutrition, full of healthy
stimulation is a suggestion as
to why it does what it does.
SCOTS Emulsion presents
Cod Liver Oil at its best,
fullest in strength, least in

Young women in their

of the peculiar disease of the

= 7mocrats of CuIIman Hold an Old
Fashioned love Feast.

Cullman, November 2.-(speciaL) 1.-THE
democrats of Cullman county held an
old-fashioned love feast at the court
house last night. The court house was
filed with democrats from every beat in
the county and the meeting was presided
over by Colonel S. j. Griffin. Mr.. Griffin
is chairman of the county democratic
campaign committee The assembled
democrats resolved themselves into a sort
of experience meeting and 1t resulted in
a regular revival. The reports given in
by the representatives from every beat
were very encouraging and served to fire
enthusiasm and whoop up the boys all
along the line. Cullman has mad all sorts
of politics In the past, but this time she
proposes to come forward with such a
democratic victory that none can ever
say in the future that Cullman is In dan
ger of falling by the way.
Judging from the number of fine mules
that are being bought by the farmers of
Cullman county at this time Of year
great prosperity is abroad in the land
Four or five carloads have already been
sold and several more are coming at once
The Farmers buy most of their stock In
the spring, but they have the money this
year and are buying them now, so as tC
have them for the winters work ano
have them well broken for the sprins
season. The farmers are in better CON
dition financially in this section than In
many years before.

EXPLOSION WRECKS
MANY BUILDINGS
One Man is Believed to Have
Been Killed
DAMAGE WILLgBE 100000
Buildings Are Set on Fire and Force
of the Explosion Is Felt for
a Distance of Five
Miles.

Mount Vernon, N. Y. November IA
terrific explosion of dynamite which oc-
Cured here today caused injuries to about
forty persons and did damage to prop
erty that is estimated at 100000. 1t is
feared one life was lost. An Italian
who was guarding the box containing
the dynamite has not been seen since
the explosion and it is believed he must
have been blown to atoms.
The box containing 100 pounds of the
explosive was lying under a bridge which
crosses the tracks of the New York. New
Haven and Hartford railroad at Bond
street. The explosion wrecked the bridge
broke windows in every direction and in
several instances houses were knocked
over and thus set on fire In each case
however, the flames were quickly extin-
guished by occupants of the houses
Blown From Room.
John A. and William II. Sullivan were
eating dinner when the dynamite ex-
ploded John was blown off his chair
clean through a swinging door leading
to the kitchen and was smashed up
against a gas stove in the kitchen. The
stove was overturned and the mans cloth
ing caught fire. Before the flames were
smothered he was so badly burned that
he may not recover. William Sullivan
was knocked under the table by the con-
cussion and his chest, back and head
are masses of cuts and bruises. The
shock of the explosion was felt for a
distance of five miles and glass was
shattered within a distance of a mile and
a half.
Later reports show that several of the
injured are seriously hurt, and 1t is
feared that at least three cannot recover.
Mrs. George A Hart suffered concus-
sion of the brain, the kitchen ceiling hav-
ing fallen on her. She Is reported to be
dying
Arrest Is Made.
Mrs Nicholson is internally injured, and
her recovery is doubtful. The 4-months'
old daughter of Robert Wear is not ex-
| pected to live. An investigation shows
| that much more dynamite than the
| 100 pounds at first reported ex-
ploded. William f. Ryan, fore
man of the gang of workmen EN-
ployed In blasting operations, has beer
| arrested. Other arrests are expected
Commissioner of Public Works Walter C
Miles said that the dynamite since Satur.
day had been under the bridge covered by
a pile of manure. He added that on Sat
| urday he advised one of the workmen Il
remove the explosive to a safe place, but
the man refused to pay any attention II
him. The Italian who was In charge O
the dynamite was known as No. 10.
No trace of the Italian has been discov
cred.
The explosion dug a hole 80 feet in tn
ground. Many persons were cut by flynn
glass, but their injuries are said not t.
be serious. Telephone and electric ligh
wires were FRUSTRATED The city wa
thrown into state of great excitement
The dynamite was to be used in blasting
for the railroad company, preparatory t.
the establishment of the new electric trac
ton system.
