2 New York, Sept 12.-How Mayor
William J. Gaynor OF New York met
his death on board the steamer Baltic,
on which he was bound for England,
was wired here by his son, Rufus w.
Gaynor, who was his only travelling
companion.
The picturesque head Of the New

failure, brought on by fatigue as re-
suit of his anxieties in the mayors
chair and the wound which he re-.
ceived three years ago at the hand Of

the dispatches from the younger Cay

That the mayors heart had been in

the statement of physicians who
treated him at the time he was shot
in the neck and almost done to death
by an insane discharged employe of
the city In August, 1910.

that the wound inflicted by the assas-

Ames Jan. 31.-Iowa's cheapest Goals
are not at all bad when 1t comes to
producing steam and power efficiently.
Thru investigation made by the en-
cheering experiment station OF Iowa
State College shows that 81 Iowa coal
will generate given horse power thru
a year at considerably less expense
for fuel than the So grade.
This Investigation covered cafelul
study of ten different Iowa steam
power plants of different types and
sizes, 1t was made by III. w. Wagner.
of the experiment station staff, and the
results are reported in a bulletin. NO.
20. just issued by the college for free
distribution. Mr.. Wagner's figures
show that pound of 50 ton coal
will evaporate 81 pounds Of water as
against 6.S pounds for the 80 grade.
The cost of coal per indicated horse
power averaged $3.50 per year for the
81 coal and $3.50 for the So grade.
The cheaper coal will produce electri:-
ity at cost Of q little less than a
cent per kiloWatt hour where the plant
is operated to its full capacity, while
it costs trife more than cent with
the IS grade.
Mr.. wagner's> Investigation brought
out very markedly the wastefulness Of
operating plant at less than its ca
pacity. When it carries only fourth
of its load the cost Of making cleo
tricity is more than three times as
much per kilowatt hour as when oper-
ated at its full load.

INDIGESTION
AND

People With Good Digestion

81 matism.

The blood 10 the product of diges-
ton. Whatever sort Of food is d.
gested in the stomach is absorbed into
the blood. II the food is badly digested
this il also absorbed into the blood. 1t
the food sours in the stomach before
digestion or during digestion, the acids
are absorbed into the blood.
These acids in the blood produce
condition known as rheumatism. The
acids are liable to produce microscopic
crystals. These crystals are deposited
in the ligaments and cartilages, caus-
ing rheumatism of the joints. Some
times in the bones. producing periodic
pains every time storm approaches.
Sometimes in the muscles. producing
lumbago, stiff neck, myalgia, and mus
cular rheumatism generally.
Pe-ru.na corrects Digestion.
The reason that Pe-ru-na relieves
such cases is easy to understand. Pc
ru-na corrects digestion. Pe-ru-na cor
reefs digestion partly by hurrying II.
Peru-na does not furnish any artificial
digestion, 1t. simply assists Nature In
doing its own digesting.
In this way the products Of diges-,
tion are more normal. The blood Is not
filled with imperfectly digested food.
No acids accumulate in the stomach
while Pe-ru-na is being taken. Thus
rheumatism is prevented.
1t is a great deal better to prevent
a disease than to try to cure 1t. But
even after rheumatism has begun the
condition that caused 1t ought to be
removed II possible.
Good Objection Stops rheumatism.
The first thing to do is to secure
good digestion. then If it is necessary
specific medicines for rheumatism may
be taken. But until the digestion Is
made perfect it Is OF little or no use to
take medicines for rheumatism. To
produce good digestion Pe-ru-na
should be taken.

Nevada, Jan. 81. - Spion Kop, a
mountain just outside of the city Of
Ladysmith, Natal. South Africa, where
the most deadly battle between the
Beers and the English was fought in
1900. has been purchased by the Sew

farm where the Zulus will be educated
and christianized, will be established
thereon. This comes as interesting
news to the state officers of the society
living in this city. The, purchase was
made for the society by F. B. Armi-
tage, who, before becoming q South
African missionary. was an evangelist
in this country.
The property comprises 1900 acres
and Is about eighteen miles from Lady
smith. In describing the mountain
the missionary says: ION the south
ward side there are beautiful but prec-
iptous slopes, while at the back Of
the mountain there is a. wide plateau
which slopes gradually toward the
town. On this plateau the Beers were
entrenched. The British general gave
command to seize the hill from the
preciptous side. with the result that
his forces were moved down like the
wheat of the field. However, the hill
was finally captured by the British and
today the boundaries of the farm are
marked by monuments that have been
erected in memory Of British soldiers
who were willing to spill their lifes

Mr.. Armitage says that the noun
