DRIFT WITH Sin
Sermon by Rev. C.. 7. Wheeler on
Familiarity With Wick
edness.
EYES UPWARD IN AFFLlCTIoN
Rev. D. S. Toy at Memorial Christian
Church on 1.-THE Year of Jubilee
Hobson on "The Satisfied Christian"

In one of his powerful sermons DR..
lC. T. Wheeler, who is conducting the
meetings in the eastern district at the
Spencer Memorial church, called atten-
ton last night to the danger of becOm-
ing SO familiar with sin that at last we
do not fear to do things which would
have made us shudder at first. With con-
slant yielding to temptation we be-
come SO familiar with sin and so cal
Ioused to wickedness that we do not
really know that we are committing
any wrong and go drifting through life
becoming more and more hardened
every day to the wickedness of our
selves and the world in general until
finally some terrible disaster overtakes
us and we are brought to a sudden halt
and begin to realize the life we are
leading MANY people, continued
the evangelist, never call on God I'M
til they lie on sick bed with death
staring them in the face. Then they
cry out to be saved, and pray to God
with all the strength of the ssjul, VOW
ing that if they are spared they will
live a life consecrated to His service,
but the big majority of them forget
God and forget their vows just as
soon as they begin to get better and
have lost the fear of death. If Chris
tianity is good enough to die by, why
is it not good enough to live by?"
Year of Jubilee.
Rev. ID. S. Toy, at the Memorial
Christian church, last evening took as
his subject 1.-The Year of the Jubilee:
the Acceptable Year of the Lord" The
speaker delivered a short but power
full sermon, appealing to his hearers
to accept the invitation now, and not
to put off the acceptance of the offer
DR.. Toy pleaded to those who had not
already accepted the invitation to do

JUST BREATHE 1T.
Hyomei Cures Catarrh in Natural and
Rational Way

No dangerous drugs or alcoholic
connections are taken into the system
when Hyomei is used in the treatment
of catarrh. Breathed through the neat
pocket inhaler that comes with every
outfit, the balsamic healing of Hyomei
pCnetrates TO the most remote cells of
the nose, throat and lungs, killing all
catarrhal germs, healing the irritated
mucous membrane and effecting a
complete and permanent cure.
No medicine taken into the stomach
can possibly reach the remote cells of
the air passages, or give the immediate
relief that follows the use of Hyomei.
A few days treatment is usually all
that is necessary to show how quickly
this remedy will cure catarrh.
So successful has Hyomei been in
the cure of catarrh among his Gus
toners that II. o. Rolls sells it under
positive guarantee that it costs moth
ing unless it gives satisfaction. The
complete outfit sells for one dollar
while extra bottles can be obtained
for so cents.

pealed particularly to those who pro

reason for the frequent saying, If re-

| don't want any of it," He likened
the benefits of Christianity to those of

all they wanted, and he would settle
the bill. The boy filled his pockets,
and took all he could carry and on

MIDDLE OF RIVER
United States Supreme Court
Fixes Boundary Between
illinois and Iowa
AFTER YEARS OF LITIGATION
Case Arose Over keokuk Bridge, But
Decision Affects Those at
Rock Island.

After many years of litigation the
boundary between the states of Illinois
and Iowa was yesterday located by
the supreme court of the United States
as the middle of the main navigable
channel of the Mississippi river. The
controversy, which arose over the
question of jurisdiction over the KeO-
kuk and Hamilton bridge, has been
extended during the long trial of the
cause so that the decision yesterday
not only covers the question of the
boundary between the two states on
that bridge, but also upon eight other
bridges over the Mississippi between
the states, including the two at Rock
Island.
Reached Agreement.
Charles w. Mullen, attorney general
of Iowa, and w. H. Stead, attorney
general of Illinois, joined in submit
ting a stipulation which asked the
court TO vacate so much of the inter
locutory order as requires that a COM
mission be appointed. to ascertain and
designate the boundary line between
the two states, the commission con-
be named by the court upon Sugges-
ton of counsel and be required to
make a proper examination and to de-
lineate on maps prepared for that pur-
pose the true line as determined by
this court and report the same to the
court for its further action"
Made Middle of River.
The stipulation urged that that part
of the interlocutory order entered on
Jan. 5, 1898, whereby it was ordered
by the supreme court that the bound
airy line between the state of Iowa and
the state of Illinois is in the middle of
the main navigable channel of the Mis-
sissippi river at the place where the
nine bridges cross the river be made

PLOW co. BUILDS
Prepares to Concentrate Wood
working Department in
Rock Island.
OPERATES ON GORDON TRACT
Building Now in Process of Construc-
tion-Lumber Sheds and Yards
to Be Located There.

Sixty men are now at work trans
forming the Gordon tract, heretofore
vacant, into the woodworking depart
ment of the Moline Pillow company. The
lumber yards will be consolidated and
the work in this line will be done in
Rock Island when the buildings now
in process of erection are completed.
1t is necessary to go through rock for
the basement, but enough can be tax
en- out for the foundation of the build
ing.
Dimensions of Buildings.
The woodshop will be 12Ox1S3 feet,
one story and a half basement, with
saw-tooth roof, which will afford ideal
light. The half basement will go down
five feet below the surface, and the
walls above a high foundation will be
of brick.
North of the woodshop will be Il
building for storing finished work
27X40, at the east end and narrowing
westward to conform to the railroad
track, and in connection Herewith is
to be a 20-foot shipping platform
which will be even with the main foo.
and extend around two-thirds of the
length of the building on the west
side. From this the railroad VIII take
the woodwork to cars bound for the
main factory two miles east.
Adjoining the platform on the west
side of the woodshop will be n boiler
house, 20x40 feet, and a modern dry
kin about the same size south of the
boiler room. The boiler house will be
used only for heating and consump-
ton of refuse, the works to be run by
electric power from the Peoples sta
ton.
4 Notable Economy.
In the move to concentrate it's wood
manufactures at one point and sepa-
rate this work from the main factory,
the pillow company has acted on its
necessities, the rapid growth of the
great industry making it impossible to
provide space in its present valuable
uptown location for both the lumber
yards and woodworking department,
which should be close together.
Has Its Own Hard Wood Forest.
The company has during the winter
erected east of the site of the new
woodshop, a large series of lumber
sheds. and has also within the last few
months invested in an immense tract
of hard wood timber in northern Lou
isiana, sufficient probably to keep its
several industries here and elsewhere
going for the next so years.

HOW Ne TOWNS ARE LooArEp.

The following is from a recent issue of the Leayen-
worth CKas) Post:
The other day a man with a street show came into
this cnice and asked If he might look over the files OF ex.
changes, He ran through the papers quickly and occas-
locally noted down a name of some town in a small book
he carried. Inasmuch as he was the seventh or eighth
man in a similar line of business who had done the same
thing in the last two months, curiosity led an employe Of
the Post to ask him his object in looking through the
papers. Why. I'm picking out live towns" said the
stranger. Live towns?? How can you tell anything Of
your prospects in a town from looking through those ex-
changes?' was asked him. IT'S dead easy" he replied.
show me the leading papers in any town in the country
and wiz tell you in a minute what kind Of a town it is,
simply by looking through those papers. It's the adver
tisement that tells the tale. Il you see only department
store and a Few other stores advertising In a modest way
and net a great many firms represented Il pays to avoid
the town for the people are not progressive.
Take a town, however, where the papers carry a lot
of advertising representing all lines of business from the
little fellows up to the big stores, and you have what we
call a live town. A merchant who doesn't believe in
advertising, doesn't believe in building up his town; doesn't
believe in circlses or theaters and is usually a knocker.
When get ready to locate in a new town l always hunt
up is papers and soon decide If am wanted there"

Special to Daily Leader.
Kingfsher, Okla, Sept. 27.-The
body of mail clerk Camel was found
in the Ctmarron river yesterday after
noon. He has been missing since the
Dover wreck September 1S. The body
"a found in a brush pile two miles
from the scene of the wreck in a badly
decomposed condition. His father had
been here from Texas and left a des-
cription. The body was identified by
this and also by his mail clerks badge
on the lapel of his coat. The body
was taken to Dover where county Of
icers are holding an inquest.
The submerged smoker has been
definitely located. 1t is about a quar-
ter Of a mile below the bridge. It is
turned upside down and almost buried
in the sand OF the river. The county
attorney has served notice on the
company that they must Immediately
begin work of raising the smoker and
explore It for dead bodies.
There is a terrible stencil arising
from the day coach, which lies on it's
side neal the bank. 1t is believed that
scne one may have been pinioned be-
meath it and drowned at the time of
the wreck. Heavy trains continue to
cros the new bridge. which is a
nimsy trestle. The county attorney
secured an injunction prohibiting the
company from running passenger
trains across it, and a train crew was
arrested for disregarding the order of
the court. Later the federal judge OF
the district Issued an order Temperate
ly suspending the injunction. There
is much complaint as to the fimsy
character Of the repaired bridge as
another rise of the river may destroy
It. No watchman is kept at the
bridge.
