Saves an Iowa Mans Life.

The very grave seemed to yawn
before Robert Madsen Of West
Burlington, Iowa, when, after seven
weeks in the hospital, four of the
best physicians gave him up. Then
was shown the marvellous curative
power of Electric Bitters. For, after
eight months of frightful suffering
from liver trouble and yellow jaun.
dice, getting no help from other rem
edies or doctors, five bottles of this
matchless medicine completely cured
him. It's positively guaranteed for
Stomach, Liver or Kidney troubles

VOTERS ARE
QUALIFYING
First Day Of Registration
Brings Out Usual Number
of Voters

Registration of voters preliminary
to the election in November began
to-day throughout the State. The
registration booths were opened at 8
o'clock this morning and the regis
trars sat until IL o'clock, when they
closed the booths until l o'clock for
dinner. The registrars will sit until
seven o'clock tonight.
The registration was slow during
the morning, very few persons ap-
plying according to reports from varl-
Gus districts. Early this afternoon,
after the industrial plants closed, the
registration became more brisk. Re-
publican and Democratic workers
were conspicuously absent from the
registration places this morning. The
candidates for various Offices will do
most Of the hustling to get their
friends qualified during the three Sat
urdays in August, as only persons
registered in August can vote at the
primaries.
Up TO noon everything went along
without a hitch in the city districts
and the Department of Elections had
not been called upon by any of the
officers.
In the Fourth district of the Second
ward the Democrats had a watcher
stationed in the registration place tc
keep tab on the people registered.
Normal first day registrations were
reported in all the city districts.
From New Castle came the new thai
every one was on the jump and that

A. II. Bouseman, of Ridgeway, delib-

an additional two cents will shortly
be added and IN September the crop
will be so short that 40 cents a dozen
will probably be the piece
There we're plenty of tomatoes In
the street markets to-day and they
brought from 35 TO 60 cents a basket
When divided into quarter pecks it
was a matter Of choice as to size ard

Sweet sugar corn was plentiful at
twenty and twenty-five cents a dozen
Chickens ranged from S5 cents to
S1.25 each. Two weeks more and the
chisckens and squads will be i'm glass
cases and then the anti-mic ODE prices
will be regulated so that the public
will pay for the cases too. Chickens
in glass cases are sure to cost more

Peaches are not choice yet and in

Potatoes a.e plentiful and bring
from seven cents a quarter peck 10 80

charge 10 cents a piece for roasted
potatoes and in some western cities
tomatoes are selling at ten cents a

Butter is 35 cents a pound and fat
little squads a quarter dollar each.
II often has been said that the
farmers get the cream on account OF
the high prices. A prominent farmer
to-day asked the question; How
many farmers or dairymen grow rich,
or even get their farms paid for in a
life time?" There is a great percent
tge of merchants who do, and of the
professional men the percentage Is
larger. There is not so much money
in farming as I'm the mercantile pur-
suits. II there was, do you not sup
pose many storekeepers would try
farming?'
II is asserted that the average re-
ceived by the producer from one dol
lar from the purchaser is only 30 per
cent. On the milk produced in Ches-
ter county the dairyman mak1s less
than one cent per quart-at times less
than that munifcent (g profit
II is also alleged by the producer
that when the crops are plentiful they
re Give much less for their product
hut the consumer does not always dc
so and then the farmer and dairymar
are charged with extortion for tooc
stuffs by the city purchaser.
IF the schedule Of prices paid dur
inc the past few years by city dealers
for milk is scanned" was remarked
"the reader will see that the percent
age OF profit OF the dealers is larger
when the product is scarce and i
costs the dairyman more to produce
IT,"
"There could be much more salt
ON this subject" was added. "Th'
high price Of food is due, first Z
higher priced labor or expensive farm
machinery, to high priced cows, 4

MILITIA TO
LEAVE FORT
Four Hits Out Of Seven is
Record Made With the
Big Rifles
CITIZEN SOLDIERS
PLEASED WITH WORK

The provisional company of the
Delaware State Militia. which went r.
camp at Fort DUPONT last Saturday
afternoon. will break camp to-day.
The week of encampment has proved
itself TO be one of the most interest
ing ever known TO the militiamen.
Most of the work has been composed
Of artillery drill Under the direction
of Captain Barry,U s. A.. who was
detailed to the militia as instructor.
The men have learned to handle the
big mortar guns very effectively Dur
ing the first OF the week the recruits
stood by and watched the regular
army men operate the big guns, but
since Wednesday their places have
been filled by the militia.
On Thursday the real practice took
place, the firing consisting of sub
calibre shots. So effectively did the
men In the tower plot the target that
out of seven shots fired four hits
were made. The target shooting was
continued on Friday the results being
equally as good.
Captain L. b. Jacobs has taken the
position of battery commander I'm the
tower, while Lieutenants McKeown
and Corkran have had charge OF the
men in the pit. The men have been
taking their places at the bugle call
"TO Arms" The Quickness with
which they have executed this call
has greatly pleased the commanders.
There has been very little infantry
drill. most Of the time being devoted
to artillery practice.
On Thursday night Captain Barry
inspected the entire company aud
gave very favorable report The
afternoons have been devoted TO the
lectures Of Captain Barry.
The militia has been shown every
courtesy possible by the the regular
nien at the fort and there has been
I ftrfect harmony IN the camp during
4 The entire week. The militia has bad
! free access to the barracks. The
meals have been very good and the
