BODY RECOVERING APPLIANCES.
(Oskaloosa Saturday Globe.)


There should he provided, by the
city, or county, or by public subscrip-
ton, a complete set of appliances for
recovering of bodies from the river.
There are from one to three or four
cases of drowning every summer IN
the vicinity of Oskaloosa. There have
been two deaths already this season,
by drowning in Skunk river. New APP
pliances of temporary nature nave
been rugged up In each case, for use
of the searching party. There are
hooks on poles, hooks for dragging
the river bottom, and a net arrange
ment to insure that the body Is not
carried on down stream these are
the plainest necessities. AS it is now,
It requires entirely too much time to
get ready for business.
The body recovering equipment
might be stored wherever most con-
veniently available at any hour of the
twenty-four. We had thought of the
ire department headquarters as a
suitable place for storage. The first
cost would not be large but 1t IS an
expenditure that should be made--snd
before the equipment is needed again
hurriedly as it was the other night.

The dove, "white-winged messenger
of peace Is plucked of the feathers
of purity and smeared as termagant
by Professor Wallace Craig of the
University of-need we add-Chicago
This tender bird whose coo has fur
nished smile for the grandmother's
grooming song, is indicted on four
counts, viz: j. Doves are not coy,
and have no element of coyness IN
their makeup. g AS wives they are
unfaithful. 8. The female dove is
frequently shrewish. 4. The male
dove frequently is an autocrat of the
hearthstone.
Thus is reputation sadly bighted
and the heritage Of years spent In four
blows of an iconoclast's hammer. Ihus
go our cherished dreams. like darkness
on the wings of morning, and from out
of literature all references to the
moan of doves in immemorial elms'
and to the "sweetness of their every
sound must depart, for IL they should
remain they would but prove the
hypocrisy of the bird.
Perhaps with the dove shorn of it's
virtues, science will discover good in In
other creatures OF the air thought
without virtue. The dirty huzzard may
be given raiment of cleanliness. and
the vampire, that sucks the blood OF
man, be endowed with strength giving
qualities Things more unlikely nave
happened, as testified in the arraign-
ment of the dove.

THE PENALTY OF OVERWORk.
Work has been mans lot since the

Work has been mans lot since the creation, but a day of toll should not have its penalty of pain. Why is it, then, you ask, that backache so often follows? It Is because the modern tendency is to overwork, to tear Aown faster than nature can rebuild. An unnatural strain is thrown upon the vital organs, and more especially upon the kidneys, which have the work of Altering the blood free of waste and poison.
 The heavy tax of overwork--the strain upon the back that is so com mon to many trades and occupations, is too great. The kidneys begin to fail in their work. and there Is a double danger to health. The poison ous matter collects in the system, and the kidneys themselves begin to break down.
 Pain in the back Is only a warning of trouble in the kidneys. An innam- nation has set in, and disordered condition of the urine soon becomes apparent.

Then follow. ed another conference of the three sen. ators. and the suggestion of forward. ing the letter to Mir Hammond was accepted. This, 1t was explained, ob- vlated the necessity of reply from Mir. Taft. This plan, after being pre- sented to MT. Taft at another confer ence, was adopted.
 Throughout the negotiations Mir. Taft refused absolutely to comment for pub lication upon the affair. It has since developed that he had at once taken the position that the joint engagement must be cancelled. It has also deyel- oped that the candidate received in- sistent advice to take the initiative In the canceling of the arrangements and that his reply. 1t Is said, was emphatic in this language:

Speaking of good roads writer in
 the Engineering Magazine tells the
 following: During the Cuban cam
 paign, in a road over which many
 hundred army wagons were to pass,
 there was a mud hole. The first
 transport wagon, obeying the com mand to proceed to destination, floun-
 dered into the hole, had to be un-
 loaded, dragged out, and reloaded. The crew had neither authority, skill, nor equipment to mend roads, so they passed on. Also there were no writ ten staff instructions as to what a line official should do when he found the road impossible, so the second wagon coming along a few hours later, plunged into the same hole and experienced the same delay and trou- ble. In turn each of the several hun dred wagons repeated the same per formance, and although this road was in constant use for several months, no attempt was made to mend it. Had there been as much sense of staff as in ant-hill tactics, the first wagon would not have passed on without bettering the conditions for those who follow. instead of leaving them worse; had there been even elemen- tary staff, one wagon only would have gone into the hole, which would then as a matter of course have been elimi- mated. Had there been perfected staff, even the first wagon would not have passed over the road until 1t had been put in condition.

 Will Fight For Toga. ~.
 In addition to this information Sena- tor Foraker told his friends that he should at the proper and convenient opportunity make speech in answer to the Hearst charges and in defense of himself and then would campaign the entire state in behalf of his sena- torial candidacy. but under the juris- diction of no political committee.
 On the morning of the first publica- tion of the Hearst charges Senator Dick came here from Columbus. After conference with Senator Foraker he went to the Taft residence, where he and the candidate discussed the situa- tion frankly.
 No conclusions were reached, but Senator Dick obtained the distinct i'm pression that in view of the circum- stances the question of the joint ap- pearance of Taft and Foraker was one which required consideration. In this connection the arrival of Senator Crane was noted, and the junior Ohio senator indicated taat he would take up the subject with his Massachusetts colleague. After Senators Crane, Fora ker and Dick had conferred the letter which Senator Foraker made public himself from the meeting of Republican clubs was taken to the Taft residence by Senator Crane.

General business, though improving. has not rallied as promptly or as full ly as was expected; nor have the crops met early calculations, even though they turn out better than last year. It becomes necessary, there- fore, to modify those extravagant expectations which had so much to do with the spring and summer rise. It must also be remembered that this phenomenal advance would have been absolutely impossible but for abnormally cheap money, which meant dear stocks and Imitation for which there Is usually a penalty some day. Again we are now in the height of a presidential campaign; anu tnough there IS nothing serious ly disturbing in the present contest it affords no material on which to pro- long the late bull market. The tar if is sure to be subject of active discussion and that Is not quieting to business interests. Besides un- certainty Is always unsettllng and 1t may be good politics to give the market scare. which can be read fly and profitably done if 1t hap pens to coincide with the plans of the chief market manipulators. For some time to come both prudence and discrimination will be necessary in the buying of stocks; fluctuations, however, will be wide and frequenv until after the election, thereby mak- ing it a good, quick trading market.

Russia May Use Troops In Combating the Dissass. St. Petersburg, Sept. 21.-St. Peters burg Is in the grasp of the Asiatic chol- era, which already has exceeded in severity and numbers the visitation of 1893. The disease is increasing daily at an alarming rate, and unless the au- thorities show in the future much greater degree of ability to cope with the situation than they have In the past there is every reason to fear that it will get out of hand.
 The government has threatened to apply the provisions of martial law. and this threat has driven the munich pality officials to bend all their ener- ges to the campaign of clearing the city of the scourge.
 The aldermanic council voted a pre- liminary sum amounting to $2J0,O00 to enlarge the hospital space, to purchase and distribute disinfectants, the supply of which in St. Petersburg is we'll nigh exhausted. and to expedite the inter- ment of bodies, which has been notori- ously slow. The dead houses are oyer- crowded, and many corpses lie un. buried.
