ALLISON AT REST.
Simple Ceremonies Attend Funeral Of
Dead Statesman.

Dubuque.-As he lived so was Sen
ator William B. Allisan laid to eternal
rest on the afternoon of the Sth with
the simplest ceremonies devoid of all
ostentation. Services were held at
the residence of the dead statesman,
and while not private. the accommoda-
tons at the home only permitted the
presence of the distinguished visitors
and the senator's closest friends
The services We're very simple, Rev
]. T. Bergen, D. D., of the Westmin-
ster Presbyterian church officiating,
and consisted of the reading of the
Twenty-third Psalm and the First
Epistle OF Paul. the Apostle to the
Corinthians, 18th chapter, and a
prayer. There was no music. The
interment at Linwood cemetery was
private and after the Presbyterian
committal service had been read by
DR.. Bergen, the body of the honored
dead was lowered into its last resting
place on the hillside which ove4looks
the Mississippi river.
All Debuque paid silent tribute to
the memory of Senator Allison during
the day. From until o'clock not a
whell turned throughout the city and
every business house closed its doors.
The city was in sombre hue Flags
hung at half mast from public build
ings and hundreds of homes and all
buildings displayed crepe, and crepe
framed portraits of the dead senator
We're displayed in the windows of all
business houses. A most effective fea-
ture of the city's insignia of sorrow
was the festooning with black and
white of the trolley poles the entire
length of Main street
The body of the senator lay in state
on Friday afternoon and evening and
thousands of the people of the city
viewed the remains. The body re-
posed in a plain bronze casket on a
bier in the front parlor of his home.
The only floral tributes were blan-
llet of American Beauty roses which
completely covered the casket, an en-
blem of the Loyal Legion and the ma
tional flag. The features of the sem
ator We're calm in death and there
was little evidence of his having
failed during his last illness. The
pallbearers We're intimate friends of
the deceased and all Dubuquers.
There We're many distinguished WIS.,
itors, men high in the councils of the
state and nation, in attendance at the
funeral. Besides the congressional
committees named by Vice President
Fairbanks and Speaker Cannon, there
was large delegation from Des
Moines consisting of Gov. Cummins
and other state officers.

next day the boy eat five pies and
nothing else On the next four pies.
On the third three. He stuck at three
for two days, and then dropped to two
AT the end of the week he had hard
work to get away with one, and at the
end Of the tenth day the sight of a
pie pat him in Il SILVER
The farmer insisted that he eat, and
as he couldn't he was horsewhipped,
and that brought the matter into court.
The man was fined five dollars for
cruelty to a boy, the boy was severely
lectured for cruelty to custard pie, and
while the farmer went back home the
lad moved on in search of a home
where pie of any sort was not known.

HELD FOR CONTEMPLATING.
Abba Man Is Found with Bogus Col,
in His Pockets.

Ottumwa.-William Fay of Abba
was held by United State Commits.
sloner Hunter to the federal grand
jury under $1,000 bonds on the charge
of passing counterfeit money. FAY
came to Ottumwa a few days ago and
two counterfeit scent pieces are said
to have been taken from his pocket
by one Jennie Stubs, whom he was
visiting. The woman informed the
police and Fay was arrested. Chief
OF Police Gallagher went to Abba and
secured the dies with which Fay is
said to have made the spurious coins.
Fay claims that he intended using
the money and dies with other con-
traptlons he had in presenting a NOV
ing picture show depicting the life
OF counterfeiter from the moment
OF making coins until he is finally ar
rested and landed in prison by the
federal authorities. Fay's story. how
ever, had no effect on Commissioner
Runter, and he was accordingly
bound over to await the action ii the
federal grand jury. If nothing else.
Fay is securing excellent material
for his show and his experiments in
ottumwa so far can easily be put into
shape for one or two acts.
Incident to the Fay case, Commits
sloner Hunter let it be understood
that the ottumwa Jail and the Wapel-
10 county Jail We're not safe places
in which to keep Uncle Sans prison
ers He accordingly ordered Fay
taken to the Davenport Jail to await
the action of the grand jury. Recent
outbreaks from both the city and
county jails have made the govern.
ment officials wary.

This sign is permanently attached
to the front of the main building of
the Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine
Company, Lynn, Mass.
What Does This Sign Mean?
1t means that public inspection of
the Laboratory and methods of doing
business is honestly desired. Itmeans
that there is nothing about the bus
mess which is not "open and above
board"
1t means that permanent invita-
ton is extended to anyone to come
and verify any and all statements
made in the advertisements of Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Is it purely vegetable compound
made from roots and herbs - with
out drugs?
Come and See.
Do the women of America continu-
ally use as much of it as we are told
Come and See.
Was there ever such a person as
Lydia d. Pinkham, and is there any
Mrs. Pinkham now to whom sick
woman are asked to write?
Come and See.
Is the vast private correspondence
with sick women conducted by
women only, and are the letters kept
strictly confidential?
Come and See.
Have they really got letters from
over one million, one hundred
thousand women correspondents?
Come and See.
Have they proof that Lydia E.
Pinllham's Vegetable Compound has
cured thousands of these women?
Come and See.
This advertisement is only for
doubters. The great army of women
who know from their own personal
experience that no medicine in the
world equals Lydia e. Pinlham's
Vegetable Compound for female ills
will still go on using and being ben
Gifted by it; but the poor doubling,
suffering woman must, for her own
sake, be taught confidence, forshealso
might justas well regain her health.

GET TIME EXTENSION.
Burlington Federation Lenient With
Liquor Houses

Burlington-A somewhat peculiar
thing has happened in the campaign
which the Burlington Civic Fedora
ton is waging for the full enforce
ment of the mulct law here. Soon
after the decision of the state supreme
court was made against what was
known as partial DEGREES in saloon
cases and holding that a Judge could
not enforce part of the mulct law, but
must take cognizance of all the pro-
visions in dealing with any phase of
it, the Burlington Civic Federation
issued notice to all saloons that they
must get under the mulct law entire
W by August 20 next.
All saloon owners and proprietors
at once began active preparations for
the inevitable Now the announce
ment is made that the CIVIC federation
has notified certain saloon keepers
that they will be given an extension
of time until October / before action
is taken against them. This is the
result OF certain representations in
which the saloon keepers have made
TO the officers of the civic federation:
VIZ: that each has paid the required
mulct tax on July /, and that if they
are closed up on August 30 they will
lose practically half their tax. They
point out that there are certain pro-
visions of the law which it will be
impossible for them to meet by Aug.
2o-for instance, securing the con-
sent of the adjoining property owners
and getting out of the 800 foot limit
from any church.
Realizing that under these circum-
stances the enforcing of the mulct
law on Aug. 20 would be serious
hardship to the saloon men, the fed
Grafton has notified them that in
those particulars complaint will not
be made against them until Oct /.
Another interesting feature of the
mulct law campaign is the fact that
the supreme coul having declared
the partial decree of the district
court illegal and void, some of the
saloons are taking advantage of it to
open their places on Sunday. At
least the report is made that a rum.
Der of Burlington saloons did a good
business last Sunday.

The Holland Primrose.

There is a beautiful flower in Hol
land called the evening primrose. 1t
has escaped from cultivation and now
grows wild in many places, The plant
is about five feet in height, and is
covered With flowers of brilliant vel
low color. A traveller who came upon
a field of these primroses shortly be
fore sunset describes what he calls the
dramatic effect made by them. 1t is
at that hour that the flowers open, and
as he approached the field, they al
opened at once, and so suddenly thai
it seemed as if a magic wand had
touched the land and covered it with 8
golden sheet.
