Chicago Wednesday told stories of
devastation wrought by the swollen
streams throughout the deluged sec

mined foundations and carried off
house after house. The train was

sengers. Farm houses almost sub

away.
Every stream we crossed seemed
TO be raging torrent. its murky
waters racing at top speed far beyond

dents of Peru. Ind. to watery graves
and made thousands homeless, was
given by Gilbert Kessler, one of the
heroes of the calamity. Weary and
almost unnerved from loss of sleep
and the sights he had witnessed,
poung Kessler staggered from the re-
lief train of the stricken city.
Kessler's most vivid picture was
the suicide of several fear-crazed wo-
men who leaped from the rescue
boats. The roaring current and the
terrible sights, he declared, mad mad

BABY IN MISERY WITH Rash

Monroe. Wis.-"When my baby was

COLD IN
THE HEAD
10 tho First Chapter In the History
OF Chronic Disease.

A cold in the head is the first chap
ter in the history of disease and death.
This has been 80 often repeated that
there are few people indeed who have
not witnessed many examples of 1t.
A cold In the head Is rarely sevc~3
enough to confine a vigorous person
to the house. AS q rule, 1t ends in
recovery without any treatment This
has led many people to regard a cold
In the head as of no Importance 1t Is
terrible mistake, however, to pass
by cold in the head as a trivial mat
ter. Every case should be treated.
Those who have used Peruna for
such cases will testify unanimously
that few doses is sufficient to re-
move every vestige of the cold. How
much BETTER it is to treat cold in this
way Than 1t is to allow 1t to go on and
on 70. weeks. perhaps months. leaving
effects that will never be eradicated.
Yet there are those who neglect to
take Peruna for a cold in the head.
This neglect is due to the false notion
that a cold In the head is hardly worth
noticing.
A cold in the head Is In reality q
case of acute catarrh. II ought to be
called 80, IN order to awaken people
from their lethargy on this subject In
large per cent. of cases cold In the
head viii end in chronic catarrh. I'm
less properly treated with some such
remedy as Peruna, perhaps 80 pei
cent. OF cases of cold in the head will
lay the foundation for chronic catarrh
A tablespoonful OF Peruna should be
taken at the very first symptom Of
cold In the head. Usually where the
cold Is not very severe Tablespoonful
OF Peruna before each meal and at bee
time is sufficient. II may be neces
sary. however, where the attack II
more serious. to keep strictly In th'
house and take tablespoonful o
Peruna every hour. Younger people

a teaspoonful every hour.

A BAD WRECK.

About midnight of Monday occur
red one Of the worst wrecks in some
time on the Northern Pacific road
when a frei2n. train left the track al
a siding, about IL miles west OF
jamestown, known as Oswego, kill
ing TWO or ,lore men, together Will
a number Of sheep, and smashing a
number of cars.
The cause of the wreck is not
known, but it is thought to have been
caused by the dropping Of a draw-bar
The train broke about the middle and
neither the engine nor the caboose
we're derailed. None or the crew nor
the men attending the. sheep were in
jurd.
}t Two Men Killed.
! One man, a ,Polander giving his
name as Matt Degovich, was taken
from the wreck Tuesday morning.
about s o'clock, after being pinioned
under the debris fully eight hours.
He was conscious all the time, and
stated that it was the first time he
had ever stolen u ride. He was taken
to a hospital in Jamestown and died
Tuesday afternoon, about 3 O'clock.
John Riska, q pal Of Degoyicll, was
found under the wreck about ZOO iii
the afternoon. dead.
1t is known that there we're other
men beating their way OH the train,
but at a late ,lDur last night 10 more
bodies were found
a Terrible Scene,
The scene was one which will new.
Eer be forgotten by those who witness
ed 1t. There were about 1000 sheep
III the debris, many injured. and
mingled with their cries could be
heard the screams Of the men who
we're buried with them. 1t was dark,
with no lights but those Of the dim
lanterns. The scene Of the wreck is
out OIL the prairie, with no town
near, no help Of any kind, and after
the wrecking crew arrived from
jamestown the mass of wreckage was
50 great that 1t was impossible to
rescue the unfortunate men.
Tunneled Under Wreck.
Realizing the utter irnpossibility
for the wrecker to reach that part OF
the ruins where the men we're pinned
it was decided that the quickest way.
to get at them was, to tunnel under
the track and get at them from the
under side. This was done, hut it was
not till s a'clock the next morning
that the. first one was rescued. He
was still alive. Too much credit can
not be given the train crew for the
heroic manner in which they exerted
every effort to release the poor be-
ings in the debris.
Many Remember Train.
On the evening of the wreck this
train pulled into this station, stopping
for orders. 1t was Just few minutes
before No. 2 was due and there were
many at the depot whose attention
was attracted by the many sheep.
