A SILLY SAYING,

eft is a common but silly opin-
ion prevailing among a GER
tain class of people that the
worse a remedy tastes, smells or
hurts, the more efficacious it is.
So says a well-known English
physician. He further adds
"For example, let us consider
cod liver oil. AS it is extracted
from the fish this oil is so often
sive to the taste and smell that
many cannot use it at all, nc
matter how badly they need 1T.
Yet cod liver oil is one of the
most valuable drugs in the world
and 1T is the greatest pity that
we. have not thus far been able
to free it from those peculiari-
ties which so seriously interfere
with its usefulness. . This was
written years ago; the work of
civilizing and redeeming it has
since been triumphantly accom-
plished; and as a leading in
gredient in the remedy called
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
the oil retains all it's wonderful
curative properties with no bad
smell or taste whatever. It is
palatable as honey and contains
all the nutritive and curative
properties of Pure Cod Liver
Oil, extracted by us from fresh
cod livers, combined with the
Compound Syrup of Hypophos-
phites and Extracts of Malt and
Wild Cherry; creating a medi-
cine of unequaled power for the
diseases most prevalent and fa-
tai among men, women and chill
dren. There is no other remedy
to compare with it. 1t increa-
ses the digestive power of the
stomach and in Blood Impuri-
ties. Throat and Lung Troubles,
Nervous Dyspepsia and Scrofu-
lous Affections, it gives quick
and certain relief and cure. DR..
6. {. Shannon, of Canada, says:
81 shall continue its use with,
l am sure, great advantage to
my patients and satisfaction to
myself. Has all the virtues of
cod liver oil; none of its faults.
You may trust it fully; it cannot
alsappoint you. At all chemists,

WILL CASE DECIDED.

4 Portland, Ore, Aug. a5,--County
Judge Webster today handed down his
decision in the celebrated Reed will
case, ruling that Mrs. Amanda Reeds
legal dornicile at the time Of her death
was in Portland and that the terms of
her will, in which more than s., ,ooo, 900
was given for the establishment of an
educational institution in Oregon, will
thus stand The case will be appealed
to the state circuit court.
E The point at issue was in regard TO
Mrs. Reeds legal domicile at the time
of her death III Pasadena, Cal, was
her legal residence, as claimed by the
contestants Of the will, the laws of
California would have applied Under
the California law more than one-third
OF the estate cannot be given for char
table purposes and the intention Of
Mrs. Reed to establish aslarge educa-
tionai Institution in Oregon would
have been defeated. 53 III

FORMER FARGOANS DIDN'T
ESCAPE FROM OFFICIALS

Minneapolis, Aug. 25.-Alonzo Rod
dy, 4 prisoner at the city workhouse,
who escaped yesterday afternoon, was
captured this morning by Superintend-
ent John O'Donnell and his deputies
who had spent the night in an active
search.
Superintendent O'Donnell traced the
fugitive, SO that he had a good idea Of
his whereabouts when daylight came
AS soon as objects were distinguish
able in the light, Mr.. ODonnell climb
ed up into a big tree, and secured
commanding position on an upper
branch, and from there reconnoitered
the country
Roddy was soon seen sneaking away
through some bushes and the work
house officials gave chase, catching him
within a short distance of where he had
been first seen. The man was return
ed to the workhouse, and it is probable
that he will be given an additional term
for his pains.
The prisoner had but four days more
to serve, and consequently was not
closely watched. He escaped while
working in the fields.

was the advice Of Chief Engineer John

before the first gathering Of the dele

can League of Municipalities. He as
sailed graft in public corporations and
declared the arguments advanced against
municipal ownership were incapable of
being sustained. In part he said:
Public utilities can be owned and
operated by the municipalities under po-
slitical conditions with just as great a
degree of success as Under private own

ONLY NEGRO MILLIONAIRE
IS A POTATO KING

New York, Aug. 2s.-The only negro
millionaire in America was in attend
ance at the convention of negro business
men, which was in session here during
last week. He is P. J. Groves, of
Grovestown, Kas., and it known as the
Potato King"
Groves practically established the
town which now bears his name. He
owns nearly all the telephone, street
railway and banking properties Of the
town, and besides has thousands of acres
of land under cultivation in the sur
rounding country
The black Rockefeller attributes his
success to the fact that he started with
a small tract of land, gradually built up
an immense plantation, the whole devot-
ed to the cultivation of potatoes, and
managed the business himself in detail
Now, at IS, he is the richest negro in
the world.

DRAINAGE IN DEMAND.

Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 25.-A
meeting of the county drainage board
will be held in this city tomorrow. The
board has several petitions for drain
age bitches, and the damage done by
heavy rams this year is likely to result
in a loud demand for more drainage.
Ditch No. d, known as the Merriheld
ditch, has been surveyed and plans and
specifications prepared, but there is
some objection to the Improvement,
and the board is holding it up until
some satisfactory solution is arrived
Ditch No S, in the township of Ag-
mes, is but half mile long and drains
a slough, = ..,...f
Ditch No. 7 is to be located west and
south OF Larimore and will be about
six miles in length. Surveyors are now
engaged in making the surveys.
Ditch No. 3 is to be located east
ofs Larimore and will be about six
miles long. The surveyors will begin
work on this assseeR as the work on
the No. 6 drain has been completed.

GOVERNMENT AND THE
RAILROAD ON TIES

Washington, Aug. 25.-The investi-
CATION into wood for railroad ties in
Minnesota and Wisconsin, which the
forest service is making in co-opera-
tion with the Northern Pacific railroad,
is bringing out the fact that the sup
plies in those states are by no means
unlimited Oak Isl of course, largely
used. Tamarack. which, On account Of
its standard 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 in the more accessible regions
if it is diverted, like the tamarack, to
other uses. ~ ' ,T&
The object Of the study is to reach
an accurate estimate Of supplies AMI
to suggest the exploitation Of inferior
woods, such as the jack pine and the
white birch, in case these woods are
found to take epreservatiye treatment
successfully # The jack pine, the red
or Norway pine and the European
larch are being considered as substi-
tuteS. As 7a -, ,sg5s .@s ~. y r.,s.

ITALIANS CAUSE THE
OFFICIALS MUCH TROUBLE

New Orleans, Aug. 25.-With the
fever here coming steadily under con-
troll and apprehension no longer felt
Of dangerous epidemic, the federal
authorities are anxious to put reStric-
tlons against free intercourse between
New Orleans and infected communities
in Louisiana and elsewhere The nee
essity for some such action arises es-
peclally from the conduct Of the Ital-
ians and other foreign races Many of
them fled from New Orleans to the
surrounding parishes when the fever
first grew violent here They estab-
lished nests Of infection at various
points. Since then many Of them have
been drifting back to New Orleans,
settling in new neighborhoods and in
creasing the foci here.
No surrender Of course is made Of
the principle that the mosquito is the
only means Of transmission, but the
attitude to be assumed is that which
DR.. Guiteras declares is responsible
for the Havana quarantine. Havana
is perfectly willing to receive one case
Of fever or twenty cases without any
fear Of infection, but it insists that
each case must be labelled In other
words, the quarantine is put on in Or
der to observe travellers who enter the
city so that no one in whose system
the parasite of yellow fever already ex-
lists may come in without the know
ledge Of the authorities and establish
point of infection.

BRIBERY CHARGES ALLEGED
In MRS. STANFORD CASE

Honolulu, Aug. 25.-The tragic death
of Mrs. Jane Stanford has been recalled
by sensational story published here to
the effect that representatives of the
Stanford estate practically offered mon
,etary inducements to local physicians to
change their opinion that strychnine
caused the death of Mrs Stanford 1t is
alleged that the bill of $I5o of DR.. c. B.
Wood who performed the autopsy on
the body of Mrs. Stanford, has been
refused payment by the estate on the
ground that territorial authorities
should have performed the autopsy. Dr.
Wood declared he was employed OH be-
half of the estate by DR.. Humphries,
and the latter said that he considered
the refusal to pay DR.. Wood to be amaz-
ing as he considered the employment of
a private autopsy physician to be proper
! The Star in its story of the matter
says that in different interviews rep
resentative of the estate indicated to the
physicians that it would be satisfactory
to the estate if they could revise their
findings of poisoning and in such event
their bills were not to be questioned and
,Drs. Humphries, Day and Wood would
be paid the amount of their claims of
$3.50. 3s@ 81ssss St. i qs.~~g lzss<. 4
Ali three doctors are preparing a
statement to place their version of the
scientific facts of the case before the
public in a final justification of the de
cision concerning the cause of the death

LINEyITCH MAY ASSUME
AGGRESSIVE I'm MAlNCHURIA

Nieu-chuang, Aug. rs. General
Linevitch is detaching considerable
force to strengthen his extreme right.
His plan appears to be to divide the
japanese army into two or more bod
les BY compelling them to devote their
attention to their left flank, thus pre-
venting them from cutting the railway
between Harbin and Vladiyostock.
III Numbers of Russians are continual
ly surrendering as the outcome of the
revolutionary spirit which prevails
throughout the army, even among the
higher officers.
General Linevitch, for this reason,
will probably assume the offensive.
There are skirmishes between rival
scouts almost daily, the men sometimes
getting within sixty yards of each
other.
Most of the advance lines on both
sides are AZ irregular and make so
many sharp angles that each side is
able to menace the enemy ) rear.
