This was followed by rain. and then
with rush and noise the tornado de-

Among the first buildings to go down

people were panic-stricken and rushed
into the streets from every direction.
Death Rate a Marvel.
'"That the death rate is not larger
than that given is marvellous, but can
be accounted for probably by the fact
that many employees of the wrecked

alone places DR.. Pierce's Family Medi-

cannot be claSsed with patent or secret
medicines because they are neither. This
is why so many unprejudiced physicians
prescribe them and recommend them to
their patients. They know what they

Many years ago, Dr. Pierce discovered
that chemically pure glycerine, of proper
strength, is better solvent and preServ-
alive of the medicinal principles resid-
ing in our indigenous, or native, medi-
cinal plants than is alcohol; and, further
more, that it possesses valua BILE medicinal
properties of its own, being demulcent,
nutritive, antiseptic, and most efficient
antiferment.
Neither of the above medicines con.
tains alcohol, or any harmful, habit
forming drug, as will be seen from
glance at the formula printed on each
bottle wrapper. They are safe to use and
potent to cure.
Not only do physicians prescribe the
above, non-secret medicines largely, but
the most intelligent people employ them
people who would not think of using
the ordinary patent or secret medicines.

Essay on the Horse.

Here is Bombay students essay.
upon the horse:
1.-The horse is a very noble quadruped,
but when he is angry he will not do So.
He is ridden on the spinal cord by the
bridle and sadly the driver places his
foots on the stirrup, and divides his
lower limbs across the saddle, and drives
his animal to the meadow. He has a,
long mouth, and his head is attached
to the trunk by a long protuberance
called the neck. He has four legs; two
are in the front side and two are after
wards These are the weapon on which
he runs, and also defends himself by
extending those in the rear in a parallel
direction toward his foe but this he does
only when in a veXatious mood. His
flooding is generally grasses and saSfns..
He is also useful to take on his back a
man or woman as well as some cargo.
He has power to run as fast as he could.
He has got no sleep at night time, and
always standing awaken. Also there
are horses of short sizes. They do the
same as the others are generally doing.
There is no animal like the horse; no
sooner they see their guardian or master
they always crying for flooding, but it
is always at the morning time. They
have got tail, but not so long as the cow
and other such like similar animals. -

FEATs IN BUILDING ROADS.
New Engineering Marvels Accomplished
in the Rocky Mountains.

Vast improvement in railroad construc
ton IS feature of the Rocky mountain
states. Passes that were pronounced in
surmountable few years ago have been
scaled, seemingly impossible canyons
have been threaded and mountains have
been tunneled to cut down heavy grades,
until the barrier of the Rockies have be-
come no barrier at all.
Only generation ago engineers were
pronouncing Colorado hopeless from a
railroading standpoint. Yet today there
are several railroads making daily climbs
of the main range in Colorado, and a.
brand-new road, built out of Denver to-
ward Salt Lake City, has climbed the
barrier at a point where ten years ago
civil engineers said no roadbed could be
successfully made.
This new railroad is the Denver,
Northwestern & Pacific, commonly called
the Moffat road, for the reason that 1T
has been protested and built by David,
III. NIoffat of Denver.
The road crosses the main range at an
altitude of 11,660 feet. This terrific
climb is made only by means of the most
tortuous windings and numerous tun-
nels. AT one point, called the Bow
Knot, the train plunges through tun--
mel, makes a sharp turn to the right and
comes back over the very tunnel it en-
tered few minutes before.
At another point the train literallyI
"loops the lake" 1t swings around a.
tiny body of water called Yankee DoodleI
lake, in so doing describing completed
circle. Then it climbs up and up makes
another curve and climbs again. enabling;
an individual to stand at the lake and
count tiers of track above him.
When the Denver & Rio Grande pre-
pared to build through the Rockies engl-i
neers said the canyon of the Arkansas
could never be penetrated its entire
length. There was one spot in this awe
inspiring chasm where there was not
room for roadbed on either side Of the,
stream.
The walls of the canyon came down
to the swift current of the Arkansas
without foothold for q man on either
side. But an engineer suggested q hang
ing bridge, suspended between the walls
of the canyon. The bridge was built
with supports imbedded in the solid rock
and across it the heavy continental
trains fit daily, with nothing but the
slender framework between the river and
the top of the canyon, 1000 feet above.i
Great iron braces, which look almostl
spiderlike in the vastness of the canyon,
anchored securely in the sheer sides.t
Huge cables depend from these Braces
holding q long iron bridge.
OF course one can get little idea of
the railroad wonders that will be wroughtI
in the next generation, but it hardly
seems possible that the feats OF the last
few years can be surpassed. Probably
the greatest work will be done in the
line of tunnels for the purpose OF cutting
down existing grades.-New York Irlb-

BRAKEMAN DAVIS DEAD.
Victim of Colored Men at Springfield CO.,
Fails to Make Statement
Before End.

SPRINGFIELD, O., March 3.-Mark
M. Davis, the brakeman who was shot
by a colored man on Wednesday night,

city on Wednesday and Thursday nights.
Edward Dean and Present Ladd, both
colored are in Jail at Dayton charged
with shooting Davis. Davis regained
consciousness shortly before his death,
but he made no further statement con-
corning the shooting.
For several hours after the death of
Davis, Col Charles Ammel in command
of the militia, kept the information Sc
cret In the meantime the militia was
placed i'll advantageous positions to take
care of any outbreak which may occur
When Davis death becomes generally
known another attempt to lynch the ne
groes is feared.
