markable cure of cancer has been
effected on Mrs. Wilhelmina Lodwig,
farmers wife Mrs Lodwig has suf.
fered from a cancer on the left leg
just above the knee for a long time
While out picking blackber1ies two
weeks ago she was bitten on the ankle
by rattlesnakes. Her nephew, Karl
Loiwig, came to her assistance and
killed three rattlesnakes. The wo-
mans leg had swelled to an enormous
size. bit the swelling did not go above
the cancer The cancer, which had
always had the appearance OF ink,
fringed with red, turned into a run.
ming sore 1t remained In this condi-
tion for four days. On the fourth day
the discharge stopped and proud
flesh began to make its appearance.
The snake poison had worked all
through the cancer, the swelling dis
appeared and the heretofore ugly look
ing cancer began to heal and turned
to healthy flesh color. Last Thurs
day the wound began to heal and Tues
day Mrs. Lodwig was in town. almost

New York. Aug. S.-The bears fell
upon the stock market tooth and nail
during the noon hour and swept prices
downwards violently, uncovering ex-
tensive selling orders on the way
down and buying hastily to take prof
its on the short side before the end Of
the hour AS consequence the slump
was followed by quick rally. The
onslaught of the bears wakened up
what had been quiet stock market
during the forenoon. The absence of
liquidation had encouraged the idea
that the weakness of the market
which had been shown for two days
past was over. The uncovered bears
were disposed, therefore, to cover
considerable degree of strength. The
crumbling away of one or two points
in the list, notably Sugar and Inter
borough gh-Metropolitan, gave warning
of pressure to liquidate. The market
resisted for time, but the attack by
the bears developed the vulnerable
positions and efforts at support were
abandoned. Enormous blocks of Un-
Ion Pacific and United States Steel
were thrown over, evidencing the
urgency of liquidation. Rumors which
had been in circulation OF closing out
of speculative accounts Of capitalists
of large influence affected sentiment
and caused anxiety. Union Pacific,

LOSS OF $75O,00o
Immense Mining Plant Near Colorado
Springs DESTROYED.

Colorado Springs, Colo, Aug. g.
Three-fourths of the Golden Cycle
Mining company's $1,O00,000 reduc-
tion plant, located in the foothills
south OF Colorado City, has been de-
stroyed by fire. Loss estimated at
$750,000.
The fire originated In the roasting
rooms and spread rapidly to other
buildings, which cover an area of ten
acres. Lack OF water and inadequate
fire fighting facilities made the work
OF the firemen very difficult and it
was only by heroic efforts that the
fire was finally brought under control
Thirty-seven freight cars standing on
sidings near the mills also were con-
sumed
The plant formerly was known as
the Telluride mills, owned by Eastern
capitalists, and was involved In the
millmen's strike which terminated In
the Cripple Creek difficulty. Shortly
after the strike the mills closed down
and were taken over by J. I. Milliken
OF Illinois and associates, who re-
opened the plant and made extensive
improvements to its capital. The mill
was the largest cyanide plant in the
West 1t has been In operation but a

James Morton, editor OF the Harda-

bed with corpse in Junction CITY,
He had missed his train and, going

got into bed.
Soon a young man and woman

Listening to what they said he heard
remark about sitting up with the
dead. Then he remembered that his
bedmate had not moved and reaching
over touched his hand.
