CATARRH CAN NOT BE CURED

with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they can
not reach the seat of the disease. Catarrah is
a blood or constitutional disease, and in order
to cure it you must take internal remedies.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and
acts directly on the blood and mucous sur
faces. Halls Catarrh Cure is not a quacli
medicine. 1t was prescribed by one of the
best physicians in this country for years and
is regular prescription. 1t is composed of
the best tonics known, combined with the
best blood purifiers, acting directly on the mu-
cOus surfaces. The perfect combination of the
two INGREDIENTS is what produces such Won
timonials free.

AM EASY WINNER OF
CHICAGO ELECTION
Nearly 1900
More Votes Than Al
derman Merriam.
A HEAVY ONE

- SA &sA~
Wards to Support Merriam
Cause of His Defeat.
Chicago.-Carter H. Harrison,
mayor Of Chicago from 1897 until
1905, and son of Carter H. Harrison,
ISr., who occupied the mayors chair
from 1879 to 1887 and was assassi-
mated during his worlds fair year
tern, was elected mayor for the fifth
time yesterday. He defeated Charles
lE. Merriam, his republican opponent
lby 1882 votes, receiving q total Of
I177.35s votes
In spite OF the opposition Of most
lof the press. the election VISA q COM
|plete democratic victory. The cleo
ton Of F. D. Connery for city clerk
and Henry Stuckart. city treasurer,
early was conceded, although q count
of their total vote has not been COM
|pleted. The democratic majority in
the city council has been increased
10y at least a dozen members.
Neuton j. Foreman, one of the
Heading republican members who has
now served sixteen years was defeat
ed by Albert J. Tearney, president Of
the Three ''1'' Baseball league.
MI. Harrison received the returns
at his home. When the result no
longer was in doubt he issued a state
ment expressing his gratitude to the
voters and particularly defining his
policy during his term.
Professor Charles E. Merriam, his
republican opponent. conceded the
election at 6:3osp. M. In giving up
the fight Mar. Merriam said:
ST am satisfied with che fight we
have made. We have presented the
issues Of decent, progressive. econo-
mic government squarely to the vot-
ers. I wish to thank my many friends
who have supported me with their
time. money. eloquence and enthus-
iasm. I congratulate Mr.. Harrison
on his victory and wish him we'll in
his administration"
+ Merriam Under Busse.
Scrutiny Of the returns shows that
Merriam was given nearly z per cent
less votes than was given Busse four
years ago, while Harrison ran nearly
II percent more than did Dunno, at
that time. The vote reached about
100000, which Is about $4,000 more
than the record at the last mayoral-
ity contest.
In spite of this, 1t is agreed that
Merriam lost through the failure OF
the silk stocking" wards to show
the strength that had been expected
for the college man.
While the First ward gave; its usu-
al democratic plurality, it was not
alone from this and the river wards
that Harrison drew his support. His
eight year service in the mayors
chair drew many votes his oppent
had counted On and his promise Of
20 cent gas, as set by his managers.
is said to have had a great influence
with the West Side wards, where he
showed unexpected strength. Failure
Of the Dunno democrats and those in
cluded in the camp Of Roger G. Sui
Ivan, to forget party lines, and to
vote for Merriam was given by the
latter's managers as the basis Of the
professors defeat.
The college man had made a spe-
cial appeal to them to support him
instead Of Harrison, with whom they
had a bitter fight in the primary cleo
ton. However, this support failed
to materialize.

"pOLLY OF THE CIRCUS"
Noted Attraction at The Academy Of
Music, April 5.

Telling, as it does, the story of
the odd romance of a pretty little
circus rider and a village pastor In
Middle West, "Polly Of the Circus
which will be presented at the Acad-
emy of Music, Wednesday, April 5, Is
drama as original as 1t Is refresh
ing, and Is one of those rare plays
that appeal to the gallery gods
with the same force as to the occu
pants of orchestra chairs. Since this
play was first produced, hundreds OF
thousands of persons have been mov-
ed from laughter to tears and to
sheer joy in following fortunes of the
wistful girl, from which comes the
title "Polly of the Circus" and her
ministerial admirer. The reproduce
ton of circus in full swing in the
third act is one Of the greatest OF
stage realism. Dainty Miss Ida st.
Leon will be seen in the title role.
The personnel of the supporting cast
is an apparent assurance of finish
ed and artistic portrayal Of the other
characters. The scenic production
is remarkable for one of such admit
tedly unusual skill in such matters
as Frederic Thompson. The thiru
act setting, where an actual sawdust
ring performances with all the Incl
dents and accessories Is shown, is
especially notable.

FACTORIES TO BE ERECTED.
Interest Taken in Tile Work for
Farms in the State

The State says it is very probable
that several tile factories will be es-
tablished in the State during the pre-
sent year. The erection Of tile fac
tories follows the campaign for drain
age conducted last summer by the
United States farm demonstration
work in the coast counties.
A. G. Smith of the United States
office of farm management delivered
series of addresses in the interest
of tile drainage in the lew country
and aroused much interest. The first
tile factory to be erected ii the State
was at Bowman, in Crangeburg
county. This factory inausurated by
Samuel Dibble as kind of expert
ment. There is moyem ent on foot
for the establishment of tile foctor-
les at Marion and at Manning.
One of the most impo1 tant meas
ures to be adopted by the last gen
eral assembly was the enabling
drainage act whereby drainage dis
tricts will be formed and che owners
of land in the coast counties per-
mitted to drain many thousand acres
of land. There are approximately
100000 acres of land t. be drained
in this State.
