COME TO IOWA TO WE'D.
Miss Mccarroll, Of Chicago, Age Is,
and Fiance Married at Clinton.
Special 10 Time Republican.

Special 10 Time Republican.
Clinton, Feb. 10.-Because the laws
OF Illinois forbade their wedding in
that state, Miss Lillian McCarroll aged
10, daughter of George McCarroll, a
Chicago piano dealer and William Fer
guson, aged 33, came to Clinton, and
were married at the home Of Rev.
William Hiram Ioulkes, minister of the
First Presbyterian church. The par
ents of the girl accompanied the couple
to this city, and gave the county clerk
the necessary permission to issue the
license to wed. They also witnessed
the wedding. The bridal party return
ed to Chicago Immediately after the
wedding.
The laws Of Illinois, it seems, are
such that girl of fifteen years cannot
procure license to wed In that state.
TO surmount the obstacle thus placed
in the way of their union, the couple
journeyed westward to Iowa where they
had no difficulty in securing license
to we'd, the parents Of the child-wife
giving their sanction to the marriage.

The people generally are very much
misinformed as to the nature Of catsrrh.
Catarrh is usually believed to be con-
E,ed to the head, nose and throat. Lat
terly we sometimes hear of catarrh OF
the stomach and catarrh of the bladder.
Seldom, If ever, do we hear of catarrh OF
any other organs.
1t is not because these organs are not
subject to catarrh, nor that catarrh OF
these organs is not a very common dis
ease, but simply because 1T is not gener-
ally known that affections OF these
organs may be due to catarrh.

A Dollar Campaign.
n the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
 While the atrocious and despotic restric- tions must pain many generous hearts, there is a certain satisfaction in the dol- lar-a-head idea To be sure, 1t Is essen- tially Jeffersonian and Bryanias. While MT. Bryan never consents to put the dollars above the man." dollar dinners and dollar subscriptions have been dear to him since his childhood in 1896. He Is willing to take subscriptions of less than a dollar now, and he even so far con- descends to the money power as to ac- cept checks for not more than $50, but a dollar is the campaign fund unit Tor him: and so 1t Is for the republicans. Another proof of the unity in diversity of parties. MT. Roosevelt has sent his dollar and approved the dollar plan.
 Hitherto there has been much parade of emotion because the wealthy corpora tions paid the bills. Now every citizen has 1t in his power to save the country to the extent of one dollar. Will he save the country or the dollar?
 Meanwhile, observe that 1t must be comparatively easy to set off and guaran- tee a single dollar as untainted and un- tarnished.
 One horror of previous Bryanias cam paign funds will not be repeated if the boards of health and the Secretary of Az riculture do their duty. The 'Jeffersonian Five Cent Cigar" 1t poisons still the air of memory.

can be built cheaper abroad than in this country.
 The size of these dredges may be ap- preciated when 1t is understood that they will each be larger than such cruizers as the Detroit. Marblehead and Montgom- cry of the United States navy. Their length over all will be 284 feet, or ETA feet between perpendiculars. The crsers referred to have a length of abount 250 feet The dredges will have a beam of 46 feet and 6 inches. The depth of hold will be 9 feet
 Each dredge will be propelled by twin screws driven by compound engines whose cylinders will measure 22 and A Inches in diameter with a common stroke of 30 inches. There will be in each vessel four big boilers for generating steam. each IA feet in diameter and 12 feet long. and carrying a working pressure of steam of 125 pounds to the square inch. With this equipment. while speed is not a de- sderatum with vessels of this type, the boats will be able to make excellent head way in fair or bad weather.
 The "armament" of the boats will make a most interesting study. For it's busi- ness purposes each will be equipped with two modern sand pumps with what Is known as 20-inch suction. The com pound pump cylinders will be 16 and g
 
 IS inches.
 In service the boats will bury the mouths of long cylinders in the oceans sand, which they will literally suck up at the rate of 2000 cubic yards each a day These cylindrical suckers will have a diameter of 20 inches. and at the ship end will discharge their drcdged-up car goes into the holds of the vessels from which the dredglngs may be disgorged Into the open sea later on. Again there will be an arrangement through which the dredgings may be deposited on scows or in barges at the side of the dredges. The pair of dredges will cost the canal commission s724.0O0 delivered in the Ches- apeake Bay. Under the terms of the contract one should be completed within twelve months. and the second within fourteen months but 1t is stated that 1t is expected both will be furnished within year.
 The six dredges of a similar type to the Panama diggers and which have been built at Sparrow's Point, are now in the service of the Engineering corps of the army, two of them in New York channel, two on the Great Lakes. one at Savannah and the sixth fin the Delaware river and bay.
