Some weeks ago during the severe
winter weather both my wife and my
self contracted severe colds which
speedily developed into the worst kind
OF la grippe with all its miserable SYM

Maple Landing, Iowa. "Knees and
joints aching, muscles sore, head stop
ped up, eyes and nose running, with
alternate spells of chills and fever.
We began using Chamberlain,s Cough
Remedy, aiding the same with a dose
of Chamberlains Stomach and Liver

completely knocked out the grip" :"
THESE Tablets promote healthy action

Long Range Forecasts.


There are today in the United States
as we'll as in other civilized countries,
a few persons who make their living by
publishing so-called long range weather
forecasts, based upon old theories
which have no foundation, and which
scientific men long ago rejected. We
also find in almost every community
some man who sets himself up as a
weather prophet, and vino prognosti-
Gates, year after year, hard winters, dry
spells, and other ca|amities. Once in a
great while he hits the mark, and then
his Il told you SO" receives public
acknowledgment; all his previous
misses are forgotten, and great Is his
fame throughout the land.
These men may be conscientious in
their belief, or veritable tricksters, 1t
matters not which, and does not change
the fact that their sayings and doings
are an Inheritance of the dark ages,
when all the world was yelled in super
stition and ignorance. This We know.
for by tracing back the mental progress
of the human race we find that all saw
ages today have their rain makers and
their rain shoppers, and that the patri-
archa tribes still believe that comets,
eclipses and other unusual appearances
forbode dire disasters. Also, auciently.
the most civilized nations, such as the
Chaldeans, Egyptians, Jews Greeks and
Romans, had their soothsaYers and
oracles, who imposed upon credulous
public.
Latterly, the astrologers OF the mid
die ages had a large following, and from
the beginning OF the 10Th century up to
the beginning of the 10Th century they
flooded Germany, France and Great
Britain with almanacs containing pro-
phecies of the weather. as well as pro-
phecies regarding the minutest details
OF conduct in the daily lives of the
people. These prophecies were the
merest twaddle, but it took long time
after Copernicus had exploded the
theory that our little world was the
center of the universe before the belief
in astrology received any check. Now
it has so far disappeared that none but
artful plunderers and ignorant dupes
give 1t the slightest countepance.
1t is not SO with the so-called long
range weather forecasters. Unfortu-
nately, many people, and some of the
less careful publishers. are apparently
in ignorance of the true character OF
the work OF these self-appointed pro-
phets. We cannot account for the con-
tinued publication of their utterances
in any other way.
Characterizing them as fakirs and
impostors avails US little. The people
themselves must decide as to the true
worth of their work. Let those who
have any interest in the matter care
FULLY compare the published forecasts
with the actual weather day by day,
for in no other way will the utter worth
lessness of the whole mischieyous bust
ness be exposed.

to. The ultimate fate of the wreck has
since that time been a matter of more or
less interested discussion, especially in
Havana. And not long since Joseph de
Wyckoff, as representative of a company
formed for the purpose, signed contract
with the republic of Cuba to raise it and
remove it from the harbor. He paid S.
900 for the privilege, and as a guarantee
Of the seriousness of his intention.
The vessel will be surrounded by
water-tight circular cofferdam, construct
ed of double walls of timber (panks laid
flat, securely bound together, the whole
resembling a bottomless tub or barrel.
This will be built in place and then sunk
until a solid stratum is reached. The
sinking of the cofferdam will be accom-
plished by weighing it on top with about
1000 tons of ballast To guard against
possible leakage under the DAM the area
about the base of the outer wall will be
filled with clay and sand encased in
sacks. This structure once sunk. large
centrifugal pumps will be put in opera
ton, which will be capable not only Of
GnWaterlng the dam, but also of sucking
out the soft mud from within and around
the vessel, thus exposing the entire huh
to full view.
The next step will be to remove such
human remains and personal effects as
may be found, after which all weighty
and valuable articles, such as ammuni.
ton, arms, cannon, coal, detachable ma
chlnery, ETC., will be taken out. It NAV
be, too, that at this late day we shall
know for certainty whether the exnlo-
sion which sent the Maine to the bottom
OF the harbor was caused by Spanish
mine from the outside or by an internal
explosion. The preliminary work thns
accomplished, it will then be patched and
noated on its own bottom, if it's condi-
ton will warrant such course.

and the wcrkmen in the place escaped in

on Twelfth street Immediately after the
explosion, but they eluded their pursu-
crs and disappeared in the vicinity OF
the car barns. A great hole was torn in
the roof of the coal room, where the
bomb alighted. The walls of the pattern
room are so twisted and bulged that 1t
is feared they will collapse. Every Win
dow in the pattern room was broken and
in several homes in the neighborhood
dishes were thrown from sideboards and
window panes were shattered. The
workmen rushed out wildly and sought
place of safety. The bomb is supposed
to have been hurled from the roof OF the
sand room. Members of the company
declare it is the work of strikers.

The Russian squadron at Port Ar

Of hulks. Official documents made

teen minor craft, gunboats, destroyers
and the like. According to special dis

ing unofficial reports, the crews of all
the Russian war vessels at Port Arthur
were landed and apparently no effort
was made to move the ships. The Jap

the torpedo boat destroyers and when
these had been destroyed the guns
were directed against steamers and

Both officers are confident that one of

were the answer. Both officers opened
fire with rifles. The two men sprang

MORE MALES THAN FEMALES.
Proportion of Sexes in Urited States
Set Forth in Census Bureau.

There are several millions more men
than women in the world In the United
States the excess of males over females
is more than 100000. These and many
other interesting facts are set forth in a
bulletin just published by the census
bureau. The bulletin shows:
In continental United States there are
1.63S, 321 more males than females, or
about two in each 100 people.
American cities, as a rule, have more
females than males. In the 1851 cities,
each having in 1900 at least $500 in
habitants, there were POI 500 more fe-
males than males, and this, nOtwithstand-
ing the many western cities which con-
tanned more males than females and the
enormous number of foreign-born IN the
country, fve-ninths of them male and
a large proportion of them living in the
cities.
While the excess of 6,929 males in
American cities in 1890 became an ex-
cess of 210,959 females in American
cities in 1900 the excess of 1,519,559
males in country districts in 1890 became
an excess of 1 $40, $50 males in 1900.
Notwithstanding the great excess of
males in the total population of the
United States there are two periods OF
life at which the reported number of fe-
males is greater. One, extending from
about SO years of age to the end of life,
is probably due mainly to the longer av-
erage life of woman; the other, from Ito
to %, is probably apparent rather than
real, and due mainly to the greater num-
Der of women who claim, enormously, to
belong to this age period.
In 1900 among the 1885,, 147 persons
attending school, 400 in each 1000 were
male and sol female; in 1890, in the
same class so per 1000 were male and
400 female.
The death rate of males in the regis
tration area of the United States in 1900
was 1910 per 1000, and that of females
1856 per 1000, the former having death
rate higher by about one-seventh than
the latter. In the 346 registration cities
the death rate of males was 200 and
that of females 17.2 per 1000, the male
rate exceeding the female by one-siXth.
In the rest of the registration area the
male death rate was 1913 and that of fe-
males $50 per 1000, the male rate eX-
ceeding the female by one-nineteenth
