SEVERE STORM AT CHICAGO.
Train Service on an Elevated Road
Abandoned.

Chicago, Jan. 21.-As the result OF
storm train service on the South
Side elevated road was paralyzed for
nearly two hours during the day, en-
dangering life and discommoding hun
dreds of passengers. Rain soaking the
wood suprstructure OF the road caused
the moisture TO communicate TO de-
fectiye third rail support near net
work of switches The electric current
deserted the car motors and flowed
through the ironwork of the structure
to the ground. The entire structure
for considerable distance was electri-
fed and menaced the safety OF horses
and men below, until the current was
shut off at the powerhouse. Trains on
the road were crowded.
Passengers on the stalled trains,
after waiting for some time for signs
of life in the motors, took surface
lines and reached their work down
town after long delay.

belief that Alva Adams received a

at the recent election in Colorado

clusively shown that he did not,
we shall be in favor of his being
seated. However, if in the in
vestigation that is now being made
it is shown that Gov. Peabody re-

cast, he should be seated. Let JUS

Der of swell clubs, including the

recently sent to an institution ON

lost his fortune specializing in
Wall street. It is difficult for an
ordinary everyday man to under
stand why a men with eight mil

PUTTING 1T STRONG.
But Doesn't It Look Reasonable?

This may read as though we were
putting it a little strong, because it is
generally thought by the majority of
people that Dyspepsia in its chronic
form is incurable or practically so.
But we have long since shown that
Dyspepsia is durable, nor is 1t such a
difficult matter as at first appears.
The trouble with Dyspeptics is that
they are continually dieting, starviny
themselves, or going to opposite ex-
! IRENE. or else deluging the already
overburdened stomach with "bitters,"
! "after-dinner pills" etc, which invari-
ably increase the difficulty even if in
some cases they do give a slight.
temporary relief. Such treatment Of
the stomach simply makes matters
worse. What the stomach wants is a
rest. Now, how can the stomach be-
come rested, recuperated and at the
same time the body nourished and
! sustained.
| This is a great secret and this is also
the secret of the uniform success of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. This is a
! comparatively new remedy, but it's sue
cess and popularity leaves no doubt as
, to it's merit.
| The Tablets will digest the food any
way. regardless of condition of stom-

| The sufferer from Dyspepsia, accord

dance of good, wholesome food and use
the tablets before and after each meal.
and the result will be that the food will
