Headaches and SIeepIessness

Mrs. Ct. w. Rorer, of Rock

so from headaches and ner-
Vous trouble that she could
not sleep.
She has failed to derive any benefit
from the many other remedies she tried.
She has been completely cured and re-
stored to health, and now enjoys restful
sleep, thanks TO DUFFY'S PURE
MALT WHISKEY.
Mrs. Rorer is 81 years of age and
cannot say too much in praise of this
great family medicine.

Another rumor, which seems TO nave
a great deal 10 back it up is that the
larger transports, the Logan, sherman

pairs as soon as the Sheridan is PACK

oyerhauling and will have much work
to be done before they are put PACK

The Sheridan is at present in the
dry dock at Mare Island and the WorK

that she will leave San Francisco Tor

which were made here by diver Paddy

FAST CoALING.

The officers Of the Big Four express
themselves as very much pleased with
the coaling which has been done in
this city. Approximately 5000 tons of
fuel has been placed on board the four
cruisers in five days, an unusually
good average. The officers of the fleet
state that they have not received coal
in such good time since they left New
York on their long trip through the
Suez canal to finally reach. this port.
Paymaster Brooke and his assistant,
Thos. Dunn have been greatly compli-
mented on the way in which the coal
ing has been carried on.
The Pennsylvania, the last of the
vessels to coal, took in her complete
supply Wednesday night and yester-
day the men ON board were busy
scrubbing the decks and getting the
vessel back into shape once more after
the clouds of black dust which have
settled on her. Painting and scrubbing
occupied the entire day and will be
kept up today till the big warship is
in the condition which is customary
in the American navy.

this union seven children were born,
one dying in infancy. Three sons, j :.

Conversations on the street corners
among the farmers these days are
quite generally about the crops and
the weather and are of much interest.
We heard two of them agree yesterday
that the small grain shows good
stand and is doing we'll despite the un.
favorable weather. Two others said
they hadn't yet turned their stock to
pasture, preferring to feed until it il
much better. Others agreed that the
spring Of 1883 was much more unfa-
vorable than this and yet they had a
splendid crop.

an order or notice that all rural mail

mails were carried in four-borse stage

he found ice frozen three quarters of

standing in his door yard in Audu-

connection with this we quote the fol-
lowing from the Anita tribune: Sat-
urday, May 4th, the usual number of
people were in evidence on the streets

body clothed in overcoats, furs NIT

kets, reminded one of the middle of a

The Guthrian, of Guthrie Center,
says: The older farmers of the county
will readily remember the bumper crop
of corn raised in Iowa in the year 1880
This spring and the past winter are in
conditions very similar To that year.
In that year the corn was all planted
by the tenth of May but very littlerain
fell until June. lnthose dayst the farm
ers sowed very little oats and depend.
ed upon the prairies for their haycrop
The method OF rotation of crop has
begun since that year, and tame grass
and oats must have moisture early in
the season to make full crop.
