Pe-ru-na Is a Catarrhal Tonic
Especially Adapted to the De-

In old age the mucous membranes
become thickened and partly lose
their function.
This leads to partial loss OF hear

Peruna corrects all this by its spe-
cihc operation on all the mucous

One bottle will convince anyone.

CANADIAN PAcIFIC'S GREAT PLAN
FOR DEVELOPING LANDS IN
THE NORTHWEST.
Lands-WiIl Build an Immense
Canal.

TORONTO, July 12.-The irrigation
railway has now under way is un-
doubtedly the largest undertaking OF
braces an area extending from Cal
gary for $50 miles, and runs sixty
miles north and south. Throughout
the center of this tract the main line
of the Canadian Pacific runs.
The greatest part of three years has
been devoted to preliminary surveys
on the proposed canal scheme and the
result shows that about one-half, or
1900 900, can be irrigated at an ulti-
mate cost of about s47,OOO,OOO
The main canal will be twenty miles
long, with a bed width of sixty feet,
and carrying water ten feet deep. 1t
is under construction. Some SIS miles
Of distributing canals have also been
located.
This portion project is to be COM
pleted first and proved a success be-
fore any further extension is under
taken. But if success is obtained, nee
essary extensions will be undertaken.
There will be no free land in this
irrigated section. The grazing lands
of the company within the belt will
be sold at $3.50, then S. an acre. and
while the price of the arabic lands
has not been absolutely settled, it is
expected that it will be about $40 an
acre. The cost of construction is to
be placed against the lands, and from
their sale the company hopes to get
back the millions of capital invested
in the scheme.

CLARK FORCED TO MAKE TALK.
Compelled by Hill to Retreat From In
cendiary Intent.

ST LOUIS, July ia good many
people have been wondering that
Champ Clark cut his speech to five
minutes in accepting the gavel as per-
manent chairman of the convention.
The advance copy of the speech pub
lished in the ST. Louis evening papers
filled a page of space and was a glori-
fication of Organism. of free trade, and
of the other things for which Mr.. Clerk
has SO picturesquely stood for SO
many years.
The story of how he came to make
a five minute talk which contained no
topics is interesting. After Clark had
been agreed on for permanent chair
man it was learned that the D. B. Hill
headquarters that he purposed making
a speech of an hour and a half long.
of practically a radical and incendiary
: character.
Hill said this wouldn't do, and so
said all the conservatives, and a COM
mittee was appointed to demonstrate
with Clark
The committee was unsuccessful,
Clark saying that if he was made per-
manent chair man he would make any
old kind Of a speech he pleased. Then
Governor Dockery appealed to him.
but he had no better success with
Clark than did the committee.
Finally at o'clock in the morning
Hill issued an ultimatum, saying tina
/ il Clark adhered to his proposed
speech the conservatives would con-
test his selection as permanent chair
man on the floor of the convention
and demand roll call, which would
insure his defeat. This brought Clark
to terms, and his mild and colorless
speech Of five minutes was the result.

CRIMINALS LIVE IN GRAND STYLE
Bandit Leader Works at Night and Is
Model Of Fashion by Day.

CHICAGO, July 12.-Living in state
by day. in fashionable hotels and Prov
ling out by night to rob al the point of
a revolver-such was the life led by the
leader of new robber band, Charles
Pheloyn, according to the confession
he has made. With a companion,
William Erwin, Pheloyn is held while
the officers are investigator murders,
assaults, hold ups, safe blowings and
train robberies charged against men,
bers of his band.
A dozen hOld-ups in Chicago and big
jobs in many parts of the country
are included.
A third member of the band. Truman
H. Williamson, lies at ST. Elizabeth's
hospital near the point Of death, with a
bullet through his lung. The trio met
their Waterloo when they shot John
C. Medler, financial secretary of Local
No. H. of the Wood Workers union, at
his door. In the fusillade Williamson
was shot and deSperatel wounded
While Pheloyn boosted of having
lived at the Palmer house and the Chi
cagO Beach hotels in the height of
style as McGovern, and told of a for
tune of $4,000 buried in Indiana, the
police began to work on the theory that
the prisoners have killed at least one
man in the commission Of dozens of
robberies. Pheloyn is supposed to
have been the engineer of the Northern
Pacific train recently held up at Bear
mouth, Mont.
