1t Ia Affected by the Use of

nonfatty food has been intimately mix

gastric juice getting at the food it
could digest. Fish fried in oil or but

example, as the fat does not penetrate
very deeply. Potatoes mashed with
butter are rather worse, and minced
vegetables fried with butter are bad
offenders. The reason advanced ex

Brookville. Ind, Sept 9.-(SpI)-
Senator James A. Hemenway and
Congressman James e. Watson ad-
dressed a great gathering of Repub-
licans here Saturday at the county
convention of the party.
Senator Hemenway spoke very
briefly as he was compelled to leave
on an early train. He gave an ex-
position of the benefits of the tariff
and expressed great confidence in the
reelection of Republican House,
basing his prediction upon the bene-
ficial legislation of the recent Con-
gress. Senator Hemenway expressed
the belief that two thirds of the peo-
pie. regardless of party affilarances.
heartily indorse the legislation of the
last Congress-
Congressman James r. Watson
delivered an address of more than an
hours length. expressing the convic-
tion that the American people would
not trust the Democratic party to re-
wise the tariff as they had very clear
recollection of the direful results of
the Cleveland administration. Mr.
Watson was at his best and delighted
his audience
Both speakers aroused great en-
thusiasm. A full county ticket was
nominated.

Washington, Sept. 9.-The republi-

lines if the wishes of the managers
are to be adhered to- The presi-
dents policies will peep from every
document and his personality will be
kept prominently before the voters by

republican text book is just hot from
the press. 1t opens with an extract
from President Roosevelts speech of
acceptance in 1904, contains many al
lusions throughout and contains 27s
pages, with the presidents recent
open letter to Congressman Watson
of Indiana, in which the work of Con-
gress was heartily endorsed and the
reasons given why it was advisable
for the people at this time to stand
pat on the tariff.
Nothing About "Big Stick"
1t is conspicuous in the absence of

in all its comprehensive treatment of
party questions the slightest refer
ence to the simplified spelling for
which the president stands a sturdy
champion.
There is little else of merit omitted.

in all it is from party standpoint the

1t covers the whole field of national
legislation from the birth of the party

pages of the congressional record

FIRE IN PEOPLES STORE
CAUGHT IN GOOD TIME
Quick Work of the No. 2 Chemical
Wagon Prevented What Might
Have Been Serious Blaze-Most
of Loss from Smoke.

Fire was discovered in the front
part of the Peoples Store at 404 North
Sth street about five o'clock yester-
day morning, where it had evidently
been smoldering for several hours
preparatory to its bursting into flame.
It's origin issnot known. The dam
age was mostly done by smoke as the
quick work of No. chemical wagon
and crew, prevented the fire getting
out of the front portion of the store.
Mr.. d. B. McLear, the proprietor of
the store, stated last night that he
did not wish to give out an estimate
on the financial loss until he had made
a complete inventory. 1t is thought
that the insurance will cover the loss
of chattels, but it is not known
whether there is any insurance on
the building or not.

Local Y. M. C. A. Movement
is Going Ahead in Very
Satisfactory Manner.
Mr.. BROWNS ADDRESSES
SPEAKS AT THE REID MEMORIAL
AND CHRISTIAN CHURCHES
SHOWING THE NEED OF THE
INSTITUTION.

Charles Brown in charge of the To-
cal Y. NJ. c. A. movement addressed
| two large and appreciative audiences
at the Reid Memorial Church and
and evening respectively The theme
of his talks was the explanation of
the Y NJ c. A, and the demonstra-
ton of the church's part in organiz-
ing such an institution. He stated
that the Association is not foreign to
the work of the church but closely
attached. The work and influence of
the one is that of the other. Where
the church is generally looked upon
by young persons as being a place
of divinity for older persons. the AS
sociation affords them an institution
for themselves without drawing them
away from the other. At both ser
vices yesterday the young men at
tended in larger numbers than was
expected and from all indications the
Y. M. c. A. spirit has invaded the
city. At last nights meeting the
young men turned out in equally
good forces. Many of the young per-
sons are talking the movement to
their friends, who are not able to at
tend the meetings and in this man
ner the good work is being spread.
Mr. Brown stated last night that it
is desired that 100000 be collected
70 install the institution 1t is thought

lection of c,1bSoript;ouc will bo beouD
Mr. Brown stated that the work
would not be stopped in any event
as that would mean another twenty
five years delay. Confidence is en-
tertained by those who attended the
meeting yesterday that the movement
will be successful
