Cure TO STAY Cured.

Wapello, Iowa, Sept. 11.-(Special.)
One of the most remarkable cures
over recorded in Louisa county is that
pr Mrs. Minnie Hart of this place. Mrs.
Hart was in bed for eight months and
when she was able to sit up she was
PHI drawn up on one side and could
not walk across the room. Dodd's Kid
ney Pills cured her. Speaking Of her
cure, Mrs. Hart says:
Yes, Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me
after | was in bed for eight months,
and L know the cure was complete for
that was three years ago, and | have
.0t been down since In four weeks
Dm the time | started taking them ]
Us able to make my garden. Nobody
"2n know how thankful l am to be

This case again points out how much
the general health depends on the kid
neys. Cure the kidneys With Dodi's
Kidney Pills and nine-tenths of the
suffering the human family is heir to

DIVORCED; WILL NOW
GET INHERITANCE.
Son Of the Late Daniel G. Rogers and His
Wife, Mrs. Daisy B. Rogers,
Separate.

KENOSHA, Wis, Sept 11-[Spe-
cial. I'm the circuit court here this
morning, Daisy B. Rogers, the handsome
wife of Charles Rogers, a son of the
late Daniel G. Rogers of Milwaukee,
was granted an absolute divorce from
her husband. She was further given the
right to resume her maiden name of
Daisy b. Green and to receive the sum
Of $500 from her erstwhile husband as
court costs and full settlement of all
claims upon him.
Nh. Rogers did not appear in court,
but he was represented by Attorney
Charles Mann Of Milwaukee and it is
understood that an alimony agreement
was stipulated between the attorneys.
The 5000 given to Mrs. Rogers is not
allmOny, as she alleged in her complaint
that her husband owed her this amount
having borrowed it from her.
Mrs. Rogers was the only witness
sworn in the case and she testified that
her husband had deserted her FIVE years
after her ma ~riage to him in Milwaukee,,
and that she had not seen him since
June i, 1902. The case was of great
interest i'll society circles as Mrs. Rogers
had formerly been Il society leader,
both IN milwaukee, and Kenosha.
At the time of the death of the late
Daniel @. Rogers, he left will deciar
ing that his son, Charles Rogers, would
not share to any great extent in his
estate so long as he was the husband
of Mrs. Rogers
1t is supposed that the Milwaukee
man will now receive his inheritance.

VISIT ROOSEVELT CABIN.
House Where President Lived as Ranch
man Reproduced at Portland Fair.

Questions of politics and opinions for
or against the Presidents policies APP
parently bear little weight with visitors
ut the Lewis and Clark exposition, for
the Roosevelt .uin in the North Da
kota section of the agriculture and horti-
culture building has interested visitors
from every state in the Union and of
every political creed. The cabin brought
from the ranch which the President
owned IN the sos and set up again at
the fair is the striking feature of North
Dakota's most interesting showing.
A register is maintained within the
cabin. where visitors may inscribe their
uames. Four books are now filled with
names and the fifth will soon be covered
with signatures, making total of $4,000
visitors who have registered. The reg
IStered visitors constitute only q small
proportion of the number who visit the
cabin. The total is estimated at half
million. The cabin is built Of logs,
which are whitewashed on the inner
side, and every available inch of space
bears a scrubbed signature. Visitors
have written their names on the win
dow siils and the door casing, and the
little piacards describing the several
Roosevelt relics are black with sigma
lures.

ACHTEN'S WIFE GONE
Chicago Retired Capitalist, Accused of
Stabbing Son, Is Agitated
in TAIL

KENOSHA, Wis, Sept. Ills pe-
cial. lit is highly improbable that Peter
Achton, the Chicago retired capitalist,
who is now in the county Jail under
bonds of $4,000, will ever stand trial
on charge of stabbing his son with in
tent to murder.
The relatives of the old man have ar
Hanged to have him taken to Chicag 90
this week and an application has been
prepared for an examination into his
mental condition. 1t is alleged that he
has shown signs of mental veal ness for
some time and it is expected that he
will be confined in an Illinois sanitarium.
Achton is taking no interest i'll the af-
fair and his Jail service is showing on
him. He has lost ten pounds since he
was confined i'll the county Jail here q
week ago.
This morning it was made public that
Mrs. Achten had been missing from the
cottage at Camp Lake ever since the
the woman or to find any clue have so
far been i'll vain. The matter has been
kept secret by the members of the fam
lily.
Achten, who is still in Jail. is almost
frantic Oh account of the absence of his
wife. Letters sent to Chicago show that
Mrs. Achten has not arrived there.
Mrs. Achten's belongings are still at
the summer cottage and this fact seems
to give some color to the fears of the
officials that the woman may have COM
mlttCd suicide.
The son, who was stabbed and who is
still in q precarious condition, has not
been informed of the disappearance OF
his mother.

MARRIES FORMER WIFE.
Woman WEEDS Former Husband Without
Revealing Fact of First Wedding.


Remarked twenty years after they had
been divorced, the man not knowing,
when the marriage ceremony was per-
formed, that the woman at his side was
his former wife, was the matrimonial
experience of western couple now en-
joying a second honeymoon in the east.
The woman, however, knew the secret,
but found enjoyment in not revealing
it to the man until after he was again
her husband
James Hurbutt and Ruth Emery were
married when he had not arrived at
mans estate. She was IS. Less than
a month before the marriage they had
met for the first time at the home of a
friend in Quebec. After brief honey
moon he set out alone for the states to
seek fortune in the west.
y misunderstanding arose not long
after he left. Angry letters passed be-
tween them and soon she wrote him it
was her wish that their correspondence
should cease, and he consented. He was
in Chicago when her letter came, but
at once left there and travelled farther
west. Relenting, the wife hurried TO
Chicago, but found no trace of Hurbutt.
Some years later she secured a di-
vorce on the grounds of desertiOn and
married Rufus Beresford, mine owner.
He died in New Mexico, leaving several
properties in Montana.
The widow went to Helena, Mont,
and recognized her former husband at
n hotel. She was a stranger to him.
She engaged him to examine her prop
critics. The friendship thus established
led to love. After the ceremony she
told him her secret and he declared he
was doubly delighted.

The Horse as Human Food

The increasing consumption of horse
desh among large class of people of
moderate means i'll Germany, many of
whom eat fresh meat of any kind only
sn Sundays and holidays, has been
specially remarked upon. There is in
Inc Greifswaldcc Srasse, Berlin, a reg
alarly installed horse, slaughter house,
which is under careful police super
vision with a veterinary surgeon in at
tendance to see that no animal is killed
tie flesh of which, by reason of disease
pr other cause would be unfit fer human
food. In 1890 the whole number OF
horses killed in Berlin for human col,-
sumption was 1867. IN 1900 the num-
Der had increased to 10,Sl5, and in 1904
to about 1900. Estimating that an
average sized horse will yield $50
pounds Of edible flesh there was derived
from this source last year about 300
0OO bounds of meat, which was sold for
consumption in siXty-four shops which
are specially licensed for that purpose

SIX ESCAPE
DEATH TWICE.
Dubuque Launching Party Scorched On
Board and Then Nearly
Drown.

OMRO, Wis, Sept. 11.-[Special /
Six occupants of a gasoline launch, the
Viking, bound from Dubuque, Ia, for
Shawano, narrowly escaped a terrible
death on board at the Omro drawbridge
last evening.
The two men and four women in the
vessel feaped into the river to save their
lives from fire on board, and then strug-
gled wildly for what seemed to them
hours until rescued by people of this city.
The party is making launch trip Of
an unusual nature, coming up the Mis-
sissippi from Dubuque, Id., crossing into
the Fox river at Portage and thence
coming to Omro on their way to Sha-
Wano through the Wolf river.
Those in the party are as follows:
James Vosburgh.
Mrs James Fosburgh.
Miss FoSburgh.
George Reed.
Mrs. George Reed d..
Miss Reed.
The draw did not open in time for the
launch and the boats anchor did not
hold, owing to the current. The boat
drifted against the draw, when the gaso-
line tank on the upper deck was broken,
flooding the boat with the explosive.
The gasoline took fire and the entire
boat was at once a mass of flames. The
occupants then jumped into the river, all
being more or less burned. Two of the
party were rescued with difficulty, but
all are now doing well.
The bridge took fire from the boat, but
was saved.

COST OF LIVING IN GERMANY.
The Last Ten Years Have Seen a Great
Increase III the Price of Foodstuffs.

Germany is no longer the paradise Of
American and English families with IN
comes just large enough to starve on
genteelly It home Ten years have
brought great changes in the standards
OF life in Germany, not only in Berlin
but in the smaller cities. Roughly speak
ing, the cost of living has increased by u
third TO a half.
In the matter of rent and servants
wages Berlin is still better than New
York. Comparatively few families i'll
Berlin boast the luxury OF an entire
house, even fewer, perhaps, than i'll New
York. The rest live in Wohnungen, or
flats, like their American compeers. The
yearly rent for an apartment OF TOUR
rooms in a desira bic locality in Berlin
varies from S3I5 to $500. Ten years ago
the prices in Berlin were a fourth less.
There are complaints in Germany OF
the degeneration OF domestic servants.
but ut least 4 fair knowledge Of cookery
is Il general possession, and in the second
place, strict oversight on the part of the
noice prevents absolute disregard Of the
CacrpdneSs Of contracts. The minimum
monthly pay for domestic service is 80.
Even this is an increase of at least 3
within the last dCccnnium.
Turning to the cost of fOOdstuffS, the
outlook is less encouraging. Almost
without exception, articles of daily CON
sumption have increased IN price from 4
third to half in ten years As an eX-
ample, mutton, which previously cost
l2la cents i pound, now costs % cents.
Butter has risen from 20 to 33 cents Il
pound, and eggs from 10 to % cents a
dozen. This increase has been partly
the result Of deliberate legislative effort
to improve the condition Of the peasantry
by the imposition Of protective duties
OH the products Of the soil.
In general, Berlin holds the sama rela-
ton to other German cities as New
York to American centers of population,
but the cost of living in Hamburg and
Frankfort is IN g nearly on a par with
that of Berlin than the cost of living in
Philadelphia or St. Louis with that of
New York. An exception in this connec-
ton must be made in favor of the cities
Of south Germany.-NeW York Sun.

WOOD FOR RAILROAD TIES.
Supply in Minnesota and Wisconsin Not
Unlimited.

The investigation into the supply of
woods for railroad ties III Minnesota and
Wisconsin, which the f. est service is
making in cooperation with the North
arn Pacific railroad. is bringing out the
fact that the supplies in those states are
by no means unlimited. Oak is, of
course, largely used. Tamarack, which
on account of its strength and weight,
has become the standard for railroads
using their own supply, has suddenly
sprung into demand for Sawn lumber,
for which use its market price has shot
up far above the price paid by railroads
for ties. White cedar, valued because,
though durable, it is so light as to save
freight charges, may hold out for some
time longer III the mole accessible re-
gions if it is not diverted, like the tama-
rack, to other uses.
The object of the study is to reach
an accurate estimate of supplies and to
suggest the exploitation of inferior
woods, such as the jack pine and the
white birch, in case these woods are
found to take preseryative treatment
successfully. The jack pine, the red or
Norway pine and the European Iarch
are being considered as substitutes by
the forest Washington Star.
