estate of John F'rohm, in which the
attorney for st. Thomas hospital en-

This will afford Mr.. Retter time to
get the money due paid into the HANDS

fer and another legatee, to st. Thomas

ter, Mrs. Louisa Rose, OF
Latah, Wash, only $25. Mrs. Rose COM
menced an attack to set aside the will.

the purchaser of the land and decreas-
ing the bequest to the hospital $500, in
order to avoid the lawsuit All debts

VERY FEW PEOPLE.
Are Free From Some Form Of lndi-

Are Free From Some Form Of lndi-
gestion.
Very few people are free from some
form Of indigestion, but scarcely two
will have the same symptoms.
Some suffer most directly after eat
Ing, bloating from gas in stomach and
bowels, others have heartburn or sour
risings, still others have palpitatlon OF
heart, headaches, sleeplessness, pains
In chest and under shoulder blades,
some have extreme nervousness, as IN
nervous dyspepsia.
But whatever the symptoms may be,
the cause in all cases of Indigestion is
the same, that is the stomach for some
reason fails to properly and promptly
digest what is eaten.
This is the whole story of stomach
troubles in nutshell. The stomach
must have rest and assistance and
etuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give it both
BY supplying those natural digestives
which every weak stomach lacks, ow-
4 ing to the failure of the peptic glands
acid and pepsin to thoroughly digest
and assimilate the food eaten.
One grain of the active principle In
etuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
5000 grains of meat, eggs or other
wholesome food, and this claim has
been proven by actual experiment,
which anyone can perform for hlmselI
In the following manner: Cut hard
boiled egg into very small pieces, as
i It would be if masticated; place the
ogg and two or three of the tablets In
q bottle or jar containing warm water
heated to SO degrees (the temperature
of the body) and keep it at this tenn
perature for three and one-half hours,
at the end Of which time the egg wilt
he as completely digested as it would
have been in the healthy stomach of
q hungry boy.
The point Of this experiment is that
what Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will
do to the egg in the bottle they will
do to the egg or meat in the stomach
and nothing else will rest and invig-
crate the stomach so safely and effec-
tually. Even little child can take
Stuart's Tablets with safety and bene-
fit If its digestion is weak and the
thousands of cures accomplished by
their regular daily use are easily ex-
planned when it is understood that they
are composed of vegetable essences,
aaeptic, pepsin, diastase, and Golden
Seal, which mingle with the food and
digest 1t thoroughly, giving the over
worked stomach a. chance to recuper-
ate.
Dieting never cures dyspepsia, nei-
sther do pills and cathartic medicines,
which simply irritate and infane the
irltestines.
When enough food is eaten and
promptly digested there will be no
constipation, nor in fact will there be
disease Of any kind because good di-
gestion means good health in every
organ.
The merit and success Of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets are worldwide and
they are sold at the moderate price Of
so cents for full sized package in every
drug store In the United States and
Canada, as we'll as in Europe.

night by Officer Hurd on complaint Of
his wife, Mrs. Matte Young who says
her husband in insane. Mr.. Young was
arrested at his home where he was
creating a disturbance, but this morn

rational. Mrs. Young this morning
filed an inforraation charging insanity,

ROADS IN BAD SHAPE.
Drifted Snow and Mud Mako High

ways Practically impossible.
The country roads are practically
impossible at present, owing to the
mud and drifted snow. No one who
has not been out in the country can
conceive the conditions that result
from the mixture of mud and snow.
The snow is causing the most trouble
at the present time, altho in some
places the mud is deep. Many of the
roads, which are protected from the
sun, still contain immense drifts, but
the snow has softened to such an ex-
tent that wagons will sink axle deep.
In some places the frost has entire
ly left the ground as is shown by the
fact that water that has been standing
in pools has entirely disappeared, hav-
ing soaked into the ground. On roads
having more exposure to the sun, those
who are attempting to travel overland
find a great deal Of mud, and in places
horses sink to their knees.

Apply For Patent For Rotary
Engine, Model of Which Has
Just Been Finished
TO REDUCE COAL IS PER CENT
T. c. RoseIand is the Inventor and
With Him, in Securing the Patent
and Financing the Venture is p. J.
jacobson - RoseIand Worked Six
Years in Norway on the Engine.

After working six years in his native
country, Norway, on an engine tnat
comes as near solving the question OF
perpetual motion as anything that has
ever been seen, T. G. Roseland, of Gill
man, has had perfected in this city
the model of a rotary engine, which,
in the opinion of mechanical experts,
will do much toward revolutionlzing
steam power. Associated with Mr..
Roseland, in securing the patent and
financing the venture, is Mr.. P. ]. ia
cobson, of Gilman, of the grain firm
of Wilson & Jacobson, Grinnell and
Gilman.
For several weeks the work of build
ing the model has been in progress IN
this city at the machine shops of Will
liams Bros. In the meantime a patent
has been applied for and is pending.
The model was put into operation at
the Williams shop Saturday, and mas
been pronounced by the Messrs. VIII
liams and the inventor as perfect in
every way. Mr.. L. c. Williams said
today that there was no doubt but
that Messrs. Roseland and Jacobson
would secure their patent, for there
nothing like the engine has ever been
invented.
The big question in steam power,
and the problem that every inventor of
steam engines attempts to solve, is the
use Of all Of the expansion out of the
steam. This, the inventor claims, has
been solved, and because the steam
is all utilized, a saving of at least
Is per cent in coal is assured.
\ The engine has three revolving discs,
one of which, that in the center, is
set on an angle with the other two.
which forms a pocket in each side for
steam to enter. The engine takes
steam and expands in each pocket and
in this way utilities all the power that
is in the steam, with a small amount
Of coal. The dead center is done away
with in the Roseland- jacobson engine.
BY a special valve 1t can be reversed,
and when it exhausts when running
forward, takes steam. therefore run
ming as easily one way as the other,
and with no mechanical device of any
kind.
The engine can be place. on the axle
OF a locomotive and will operate it as
easily in its simplifed way as it is
at the present time with compli-
Gated lot of machinery. Drive rods
will be done away with with the use
Of the rotary engine on a locomotive.
Messrs. Roseland and Jacobson expect
that their engine will be Of great value
in railroad work, steamboats, and
steamships and other branches Of
steam locomption.
Mr.. Roseland, who has been in the
city witnessing the test of the engine.
returned to Gilman Saturday evening,
and Sunday night left for Chicago.

CITY WANTS INJUNCTION.
Asks That G. w. LaPIant Be Restrain.
cc. From DESTROYING Dam.


ed From Destroying Dam.
The city has filed petition with the
clerk of the district court in which a
temporary injunction is asked res
training George w. LaPlant from tear
ing out or destroying the Iowa river
dam near Center street. Upon hear
ing it is asked that the injunction be
made permanent. The claim is set
forth that should the dam be destroyed
the level of the water Of the river
maintained by it would be lower as
would also the subterranean streams
of water which feed the city wells. AS
a result. it is alleged, the city water
supply would be seriously affected and
perhaps permanently destroyed. The
Marshall Ice Company has already en-
joined Mr.. LaPlant from removing the
dam.
