Are You Tired, Nervous
and Sleepless ?

Nervousness and sleeplessness are u.s.
ually due 10 the fact that the nerves are
not fed on properly nOurishlng DlOOd,
they are starred nerves. DR.. Pierce
Golden Medical Discovery makes pure
rich blood and thereby the nerves are
properly nourished and all the organs OF
the body are run as smoothly as machlh-
ery which runs in oil. In this way you
feel clean, strong and strenuOus-y0u are
toned up and inyigorsted. and you are
good for whole lot Of physical or mental
work. Best of all, the strength and in
crease I'm vitality and health are lasting.
The trouble with most t0nics and med
icines which have large, booming sale
for a short time, is that they are largely
composed OF alcohol holding the drugs W
solution. This alcohol shrinks up the red
blood corpuscles, and in the long run
greatly Injuries the system. One may ieeI
exhilarated and better for the time being
yet In the end weakened and with vitality
decreased. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery contains no alcohol. Every
bottle of IL bears upon its wrapper me
BddQe Of H0neSty in full list OF all its
several ingredients. For the druggist to
offer YOU something he claims Is just as
good Is 10 insult your intelligence.
Every ingredient entering into the
wOrId-famed Golden Medical Discovery
has the unanimous approval and endorse
ment of the leading medical anthOrltles
OF all the several schools of practice. No
other medicine sold through druggists for
like purposes has any such endorsement;
The Golden Medical Discovery" not
only produces all the geOd effects to be
obtained from the use of Golden Seal
root. in all stomach, liver and bowel
troubles. as in dyspepsia, biliousneSSs, con,

Golden Seal root used in its compound

ti0n by other ingredients such as Stone

Crazy Man at Keyboard.

With the keyboard that operates the
wires on the Wabash system in Indiana
in bis possession and sending all kinds
of conflicting orders 10 dispatchers at
various places, Evertt Kallam, an in
sane telegraph operator at Huntington,
Ind,, practically put the Wabash sys-
TEN out of commission for 30 minutes
and caused no little confusion at all
points along the line.
When the regular operator returned
to the Office and endeavOred to take pos
session KeIam resisted aud it required
the combine strength of three men to
overpower him ard Iaud him safely in
Jail.
The regular operator at Andrews,
Henry Beauchamp, lett the office for
few minutes near the noon hour, and
had hardly gotten out before Kellsm
took possession of the switchboard aud be-
gan to give orders to the variJvs dis
patchers along the line. The dispatchers
did not know from whom they were re-
ceiying orders, and all attempts to
break in upon him were futile, as he re-
fused to answer any questions.
With liehlning-lke raridiiy he sent
message after message to various places,
aud operators at once saw that there was
someone at the wire who knew nothing
about the running of trains.
The operators at different points recog-
nized .he fact that orders sent them re
garding certain trains we're duplicated
to other dspalchers along the line, for
they read the same messages going over
the wires, and, fearing that accidents
might occur, one of the operators threw
open his key and then grounded the
wire over which The conflicting orders
were coming.
The places of the several passenger
and freight trains along the line were
learned and the operators were advised
to hold them till ineligible orders
could be secured. All trains were thus
stopped for several minutes. As soon as
Operator Beau .hamp could get at the
key he explained the conditions and the
trains we're moved along again.

Decides in Favor of Unionists

The legal contest instituted to prevent
the union of the Cumberland Presby-
terian Church with the Presbyterian
Church has been decided in favor of the
uniOnis!s. Judge Johns, in Decatur, ILL.,,
last night made public a decision in
which he refuses to grant the injunction
prayed for by (he antisuniOnists and
dismisses the bill on demurrer. A
written opinion will be handed down TO-
morrow.
The decision was not expected by the
leaders of the anti-unioDists. Their at
torneys announce that they will appeal
the case, probably to the Supreme Court
of Illinois. J
At the afternoon session OF The Assem-
bly, The recommendation that lndianOla
synod be dissolved was withdrawn be-
cause of a strong sentiment that the
measure was too drastic. The committee
on the theological seminary recommended
that that institution offer correspondence
courses. The Assembly held a service
/ in memory OF deceased ministers.
The Assembly was given surprise by
report of the committee on overtures
recommending dissolution of the Indian
ola Synod and the attachment of the In
dianola Presbyteries TO the Synods Of
Texas and Kansas, because the Indianols
Synod had declared purpose TO re-
sist the constituted authority Of the
church and had committed acts con
trary to the rules OF the church. Discus
sion on the report was postponed by
other business.
The temperance committee recon-
mended the employment OF temperance
evangelist, and declared that no maj
who favors the licensed saloon should b.
supported for public office.

The automobile struck the track as
the express train thundered by. The
low front of the car ran right under the
second coach Of the train. There was
terrific roar and crash as the big ma
chine was dragged under the train

was torn into fragments and the two
occupants were dragged under the train
