San Francisco, Oct 22.-The main
army of the Chinese government, un-
der War Minister Yin Tchang, said
to number 10000 men, was totally
defeated yesterday at Kwangshui,
Hupeh province, says cable received
today by the Chinese Free Press, of
this city. The rebel army of Is 900,
under Ii Yueng Huen, is stated to
have captured the artillery, baggage
train and ammunition Of the i'm
perials, who retreated to Shagot.
Supply Trains Abandoned.
/. Cables received by local Chinese
newspapers indicate that the imperial
forces were completely routed and
abandoned their supply trains DUR
ing the retreat. The mountain pass
at Kwangshui. said to be Of great
strategic value, is now held by the
revolutionists. This governs the eff
fectiveness of the Hankow-Peking
railroad, over which the imperial
troops are being moved.
Gov. Sun Pc Kee, Of the province
of Shantung, is reported to have
narrowly escaped death yesterday
and is now in hiding in Chingtao.
Revolutionists burned the governors
residence at Tsinanfu, say cables to
the Chinese Free Press, and the ma
jority of the imperial troops went
over to the revolutfonists.

Rheumatism Cure Has
Captured England

From the London Daily Herald)
Lady Somerset is the latest not
a3le to add her personal tribute to the
new remedy FOR rheumatism known as
Celmo This certainly is no ordinary
patent medicine. When a remedy can
GO on year after year and secure the
appreciation of persons Of high and
low degree it surely must possess un-
questioned and genuine merit.
London fogs and the drizzly rains
Of the provinces have lost their ter
rors. No longer does one hear bitter
comment on the climate Of England;
no longer is il necessary TO go to the
Rivieri or continental springs for the
relief of aching bones and muscles
twisted with agonizing pain.
1.-THE use Of Celmo is not now con-
fined to England and the British Isles.
It is sold the world over. 1t has re-
Gently been introduced in the United
States and is there meeting with the
same remarkable success that has
been given Celmo In the mother coun-
try OF the thousands of remedies for
rheumatism that have been Of
fered the public since rheuma-
tism has afflicted mankind, it is
safe to say that none has achieved the
same remarkable results. Celmo stands
alone, in class by itself and we
cheerfully add our personal indorse-
ment to the many. many others that

pany TO Take It Over.
At the annual meeting of the Mari

pany, of which former Mayor 4.
Spies of Menominee is president, deal
was put through for the paper compa-
ny to absorb the Menomlnee River
Boom compCny of which Senator Isaac
Stephenson is president. The Paper
has increased its capital
stock from $4,000 to $4,000 To make
possible the absorption. The Boom
company is gradually finishing its
work on the Menominee river and il is
planned TO have it pass into the hands
of the Paper company when its work is
finished. This is estimated at from
one to eight years. More timber is now
taken to the Twin cities by rail than
by water and this has greatly lessened
the operations of the Boom company
the last few years. The men owning
the Paper company are practically the
owners OF the Boom company, although
the two concerns have always been
operated separately. The men who
control these two big companies are
the parties planning the development
of Chappie rapids. a Menominee river
power four miles north OF Marinette.
II is thought a new company will be
organized to develop the falls and
that work will be started within a
year.
