JAMESTOWN EXPOSITION NOTES

President Roosevelt is taking d
personal interest in the jamestown
Exposition, and especially in the ma
val and military features. He feels
that it will be a great object lesson
to the people of the United States,
and will exert a strong influence in
crystallizing sentiment in favor of Il
larger and better navy.
Several state universities are ask
ing for information about the James
town exposition. The influence of
this great celebration on United
States history is bound to be satisfac-
tory, in that 1t is creating new inter-
est in the study of III history. The
great delving after facts that have
hitherto lain hidden, and their publ
cation in stories by the public press
through the medium of the general
press bureau of the exposition, has
attracted the attention of the educa-
tional world.
The homecoming of V~irginians to
be celebrated at the Jamestown Ex-
position in 1907 will be the greatest
home coming" in the history OF
states.
AS soon as Russia has put her crops
away in the barn she will take off her
.overalls, don her apron and begin to
arrange for her great display at the
jamestown Exposition in 1907.

UNCLE JOE AT H O

Everybody calls Speaker Cannon,

says, he is one of the plain people,
A companion of his early youth tells
a story of his school days in this
fashion:
Joe Cannon and l used to sit side

Joe Cannon 1t was recess time,
and when Barnabas Hobbs, our teach

five minutes in commencing Joe's
high resolve and urging all of us
boys and girls to work to high stand
ards. Well, Joe's been there about
thirty-five years.
Joe was a good scholar and .
bright boy. His father was a grand
old type of the early Quakers. He was
a physician who went where and
when duty called. A call came one
night when Sugar Creek was up, and
he threw his s~addlebags over his
horse and started. The swollen Sug-
ar Creek had to be forded. Well, sir,
no one ever saw him again. His body
was never found. He was one of the
six founders of the Bloomingdale
school,"

nARNING ON NET.

Darning on net or darned lace flet
lace. both antique and guipure, are
among The earliest examples of laces
| known. and are to be found in al
most every country, each showing
some particular feature.
Limerick lace is one of the best ex-
amples Of darning upon net, n
comes in three varieties: Tambour,
which is a design in chain stitch upon
the machine made net. Applique,
| made by the cambria or net laid over
net, and the design formed by over
| casting the pattern, after which the
background is cut away and the
| foundation shows through.
The third variety is run" lace,
| when the lines of a pattern are run
| with coarse thread upon the net.
Many very attractive designs can
be made by simply running the
| threads in different directions, Il
effective results can be obtained by
experimenting first upon a small
piece of net, and then working it out.
In some of the old net samplers as
many as twenty-five and thirty Varl-
ations are seen, and many OF these
old pieces of darned net are very
good patterns to go by.

time, and it was found that he
was suffering with smallpox.
DR.. Blakeslee went to Fullerton 8

so that there is no possible
chance for a spread of the

Get your tickets early to the
Dixie Jubilee singers. This is
the advice of Manager Harris,
and he says the people who wait
until the last minute are very
likely to get left, or at least to
fnd all the best seats taken.
The reason is this: There Is q
large crowd coming down from
the up-the-line towns for the
perfor nance, and Governor
Johnson is to make q speech in
the hall before the curtain rises
on the singers. The room will
be filled with those wishing to
hear the democratic oratory,
and a large share of them will
proba bly, stay for the music.
The ticket board will be at the
City drug store u.til 6:45
Wednesday afternoon, when it
will be taken to the opera house.
Get your seats today or Friday,
early.

Six Box Cars and Cabo0se Oitched
on the N. & |. Yesterday
Afternoon.
TWO HAVE NARROW ESCAPES,
BUT LUCKILY NO ONE IS HURT
Wrecking Apparatus and Crew Sent
From Bemidii to Scene OF
Accident.

The south bound freight train
on the M. & l was wrecked at a
point about one mile north of
Houpt, yesterday afternoon at
2o'clock. The train was moving
at the usual rate of speed south
toward Houpt station, when a
kinked rail was struck. The
caboose and six box cars were
derailed and badly smashed, the
rest of the train remaining on
the tracks. Fortunately, no one
was injured, although there we're
two narrow escapes.
Word was sent to Bemidji and
the wrecking apparatus and a
crew of men was sent to the
scene of the wreck. The
smashed cars were removed
from the rails and the wreck
was cleared at about $50 last
evening, causing a delay of an
hour to the north bound passen-
ger train, which was held at
Funkley until the track was free
for passage.

Petroleum.

The first mention Of petroleum in
America was made by Father De la
Roche d'Allien, Franciscan, in 1929.
1t may be surprise to many people to
know that both the product itself and
the names petrol and petroleum were
familiar at least as far back as the
middle Of the fourteenth century. In the
Sloane manuscript Fifteenth century,
mention Is made both Of rock oil and
of the correct derivation Of the name.
which is medieval Latin and of
course has nothing to do with Peter:
Petroleum, oleum est factum de petra.
G(allice), petroille." C'Petroleum is an
oil made from rock-in French, pc

before the work quoted in Mature"

disappeared from English and did not
return until the days of the motor car
industry, when it was reintroduced
from the French in the sense Of refined
petroleum.

Nervous Troubles
Overcome

A recent letter from Mrs. W.

louisville, KY, tells a remark,
able story Of her experience
wife the new preparations with
which L. T. Cooper has aroused
the leading cities of this country
ard which is now selling through.
out the United States in enor-
nous quantities.
Mrs. Schaurer states that she
had suffered from a severe
nervous trou BILE superind uced by.
an affection of the stomach and
could find nothing that seemed
to give her relief.
To relate the story in her own
words Mrs. Schaurer says:
"My system was badly run down
and my stomach and nerves in
an awful shape. / could not
digest my food, was always tired
and would often feel faint and
dizzy"
II had heard so much of Mr..
Cooper's wonderful medicines
that I purchased a small q uantity
and began taking it. The result
has both surprised and delighted
me for relief and strength and
happiness were found in the
first bottle and the benefit I hay
received from it has been truly
marvellous. I no longer have
dizzy and faint spells. My ap-
petite and digestionare good snd
I can eat everything and sleep
well. It is a splendid medicine.
Cooper's New Discovery sells
for $1.0O per bottle. It is Mr..
Cooper's claim that he accom-
plishes such remarkable results
with the preparation simply
because it puts the stomach in
| working order and nature will
then do the rest.
The preparations are sold here
