ANADvENTURoUs CORRESPOND

ENT
Few newspapers in the United States
are able to command the services Of as
brilliant a corps of correspondents as
The Chicago Record Herald. Its choice
Of Walter Wellman to represent It at
Washington is a good illustration of its
be had. Mr.. Wellman has won a
resourceful news writer. And now he is
preparing to clinch his reputation for
originality and daring by trying to reach
the north pole in an airship.
Whatever may be the results of Mr..
Wellman's daring attempt to reach the
pole this summer in an airship and send
the news of the voyage at once to The
Record-Her ald by wireless telegraphy,
the Wellman:R ecord-H Herald expedition
is sure to be conducted by MI. Wellman
with the same cool courage and whole.
souled enthusiasm that have made him
an ideal newspaper correspondent. +
Mr.. Wellman was born in Mentor,
Ohio, in 1885, At Ia he began his news
paper experience, establishing at that
age aweekly paper in the little town of
S1fton,NeE In. 1884 he became the
Washington correspondent of the Chi
1cagolH Iefald, for which paper he, visited
the West Indies in.I3o2 and located the
landing place of Columbus, marking the
spot with a huge stone monument. In
1894 he made his first dash for the pole,
reaching the latitude of 81 degrees north:

Towering new islands and securing new
scientific data which have been of great
value to the American Geographical

THE DOCTOR AwAFFRoM HOME
WHEN MOST NEEDED.

People are often very much disap-
pointed to 6nd their family physician
is away from home when they most need
his services Diseases like cramps, collie
and cholera morbus require prompt
treatment, and have in many instances
proven fatal before medicine could be
procured or a. physician summoned.
The right way is to keep at hand "a
bottle Of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. No physician
can prescribe a better. medicine for
these diseases. By having it in the
house you escape much pain and suffer
ing and all risk. Buy it now; it may
save life. For sale BY all druggists.

 LARGE OPERATIONS

Plans for the development of claims recently acquired by the Superior & Boston company along most progressive and up-to-date mining lines were com- pleted and actual work begun at two points on the property. forty-eight hours after the president of the com pany. Captain James ChynOweth of Calumet. Mich. had made his first eX- animation of the claims. says the Globe Silver Belt. Yesterday development work was begun on the Great Eastern and Black oxide claims and today an other force will start developing the Limestone. This makes a record which has seldom. if ever. been equalled in the Globe mining district.
 The advent of these Michigan copper interests into the district a trifle over thirty days ago was hailed with con- siderable enthusiasm by local mining men. owing to their high standing in the northern copper country. and the manner in which they are starting op- erations shows that they mean Dusi- ness.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful it is in Preserving Health and Beauty.
 Costs Nothing to Try.

Nearly everybody knows that char
 coal is the safest and most efIicien;
 disinfectant and purifier in nature
 but few realize its value when taken
 into the human system for the same
 cleansing purpose.
 Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not a
 drug at all. but simply absorbs the
 gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and car
 ries them out of the system.
 | Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions and other odorous vegetables !. Charcoal effec;ually clears and inn proves the complexion. it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic. 2 IL absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels: it disinfects the mouth and throat from the pOsion of catarrh
 | All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal. and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey
 The daily use of the lOzenges will soon tell in a much improved condi- tion of the general health, better com plexion. sweeter breath and purer blood and the beauty of it is that no possible harm can result from their continued use, but on the contrary, great benefit
 A Buffalo physician. in speaking of the benefits of. charcoal, says. 'I ad- wise Stuarts Charcoal LOZenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels and to clear the complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat: l also believe the liver is greatly benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but twenty five cents q box at drug stores. and al- 1. though in some sense a patent prep aration, yet I believe l get more and better charcoal in Stuarts Charcoal i Lozenges than in any of the ordin- 1 ary charcoal tablets"

The fire which followed the shock was
still burning Tuesday morning, though
it had been confined to certain limits.
The work of fighting the flames was
still being pursued with energy, and
in this respect the situation seemed to
be improving.
The statement is made that the total
loss of life has not yet been ascertain
ed, but a first count gives the number
of dead at less than 100 and the num-
Der of injured at several hundred. The
hospitals are filled with injured per-
sons, and everything possible is being
done for their comfort.
The principal hotel of Kingston
probably the Myrtle Bank hOteD and
other important buildings have been
destroyed, and other houses in King
ston sustained considerable damage.
The flames apparently were confined
to the docks and the warehouse dis
trict. If this is so only a small portion
of the city has been burned over.
No mention is made of a cOntinu-
ance of the earth shocks.

REPORT
ON C. & D. CANAL
Route Across Delaware and Maryland
Hay be Bought by U. S.
IT HAS MANY ADVANTAGES

Washington, Jan. IA. - A report
favorable to the present Chesapeake
& Delaware canal, or back creek route
across the Maryland and Delaware
peninsula. has been submitted to Sec
reiary Taft by the Chesapeake & Della
ware canal commission, consisting of
General Felix Agnus, chairman; Major
C. A. F. Flagler, U. S. A., and Civil
Engineer Frank Taylor Chambers, U.
S. N.
This commission was appointed last
summer to report upon the back creek
route and the Sassafras river routes
and the construction of a free and
open waterway with sufficient depth
to accommodate the largest ships
ships afoat. The present route is held
to be more desirable because it has
equal commercial and strategic ad-
vantages and will, in the opinion of
the commission, be S2,15O,OOO cheaper
than the other route.
1t is recommended in the report that
not more than $2,514,2S9 be paid for
the present canal.
AlG NOAlllll6oAuu luA LuGI IECOLLl-
mends that the present canal be pur-
chased without delay and that it be
gradually widened into a large water
way capable of accommodating ships
of any draft.
Although there were many argu-
ments before the commission for a
shallow canal between the Delaware
and Chesapeake bays which would
supplement the proposed barge canal
between Beaufort. N. c., and Norfolk,
Va, the commission is firmly of the
opinion that nothing less than a 80
foot canal should be constructed. Esti-
mates for a canal of this depth and
with a minimum width of $50 feet are
submitted. The width is extended to
200 feet in marshes and in curves is {
increased to $50 feet. A sea level canal |
of the dimensions named would in the !
opinion of the commission cost 500
621 1923. With a 80 foot channel such
a canal would cost S1I312.O64.
Such a canal would shorten the dis
lance between Baltimore and Philadel-
phia 323 miles and. would lessen the
distance between Baltimore and the
mouth of the Delaware by 1874 miles.
The report states that all hearings
conducted by the commission showed
of freight throughout the
east which the railways are unable to
handle satisfactorily, and the develop
nent of waterways are urged as neces-
iary to meet the great demand for
