It is very common for a man or woman to have a slight attack of in digestion, which is neglected and soon develops into chronic dyspepsia. Then something must be done to alleviate the pangs and the victims resort to various "bitters" and other decoctions strong in alaohol which are very stimulating. All stUnulants must have a reaction and con stantly increasing doses are necessary. Soon the moral sense becomes hardened and liquors are drunk to excess. That is the beginning of the end. If dyspep tics and those suffering from any form of stomach trouble will take Chase's Dys pepsia Cure they will be saved for long, happy and useful lives. This unequaled remedy is prepared in liquid form (non-alcoholic), is easy to take, and the first dose gives positive relief in all cases of indigestion, sour stomach, dizziness, heartburn, distress after eating, sick headache and all com plaints derived from a disordered stom ach. Mr. James A. Bolton of 326 Clear mont avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y., states his case as follows: "I hereby do gladly testify that a single tablespoonful of your Dyspepsia Cure, which was given me by a friend. Immediately relieved the distress from which I had suffered for almost a month without intermission it was a daily com plaint. Since I have purchased a bottle and taken & dose after meals, the indi gestion has entirely disappeared, for which I am truly thankful to you."

A MOUNTAIN OF GOL D QBE Gen. S. E. Olson, Back Prom "The Hills," Tells of Reliance Com pany's Property There. "We're going to strip the top off Bald Mountain and then we are going t show the mining world something about quarry ing gold ore," said General S. E. Olson at his seat in his Walton block offices this morning surrounded by photographs and blue prints illustrative of the Bald Moun tain district in the Black Hills. General Olson, who, since his retirement from the dry goods and general merchan dizing business three years ago, has been turning his attention to mining, has just returned from two weeks in the Black Hills country, more than enthusiastic about that region. Becoming interested in the Black Hills almost by accident, General Olson is now at the head of the Reliance Gold Mining company, which is capitalized at $5,000,000 and has taken over 613 acres of gold mining property between Deadwood and Custer. "A few years ago it didn't pay to handle any gold ore from the Bald Mountain dis trict which paid less than $17 a ton. W e have opened up nine old tunnels into the side of the mountain and have found that the whole top of the mountain is a solid bed of flat or blanket ore which can be mined by simply .stripping off the surface and quarrying it'out," General Olson ex plained. "In the center of the territory controlled, the mill will stand at the mouth of a tun nel out of which $50,000 in gold was taken In the old days. Everything below $17 ore was thrown away at the mouth of this tunnel, and, as by improved processes we can mine and treat ore for about $2 a ton we will have a small fortune in tailings awaiting us as a starter. "As soon as I decide whether to use the Chilean or the old time stamp process I will enter into a contract for a mill which wil handle 300 tons of ote a day. The Bur lington and Elkhorn railroads will be com pleted onto our property by the time the mill is built and as we have plenty of water there will be nothing to delay us. "The Black Hills country has never been properly exploited until within the last few years, but it will surprise a great many mining men- before its resources are ex hausted. We did a little surprising our selves when we discovered a solid moun tain of ore."

William Bunnell, the 12-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Willard Bunnell, 601 Third avenue SE, is attracting attention because of his remarkable recovery from a severe case of tetanus, which has been so fatal in the twin cities this year. ' Young Bunnell ran a nail in his foot last September and was apparently per fectly well after the application of poul tices. A month after the accident, how ever, he was taken violently ill and for a week suffered continually from spasms. After the parents had given the boy up for lost the application of poultices was renewed, the black speck which had re mained to mark the place of the injury was drawn out and the boy is as well as ever.

TRIED TO KILL HERSELF Mrs. Carrie Didn't Want to Outlive the Pope. New York Sun Speoial Service. Rochester, N. Y., July 23.When Mrs. Ellen Carrie, a devout Catholic, was in formed of the death of the pope, she im mediately informed her family that she did not care to live. Yesterday afternoon the woman, after reading the paper,s describing the scenes at the Vatican during the pontiff's last moments, left her home and walked to a drug store where she purchased a package of rat poison. She then locked herself in her bedroom. The family heard Mrs. Carrie's groans and breaking open the door found her lying in an unconscious condition. After she had recovered at the hospital she told how her desire to live had been taken away by the pontiff's death. Mrs. Carrie is 65 years of age. CULLOM'S NEPHEW INDICTED.

THE MINNEAPOLIS JOUENAL. %g^^^?f CLIME AND MORALS Former Not to Blame for Deteriora tion in the Latter in . . Philippines. Dr. Don F. Fitz Gerald Declares the Theory GroundlessHis Observations. That moral deterioration is caused by the Philippine climate is a new theory in which Dr. Don F. Fitz Gerald of this oity, formerly an acting surgeon at Manila, has little confidence. Dr. Fitzgerald, brother of Dr. R. J. Fitz Gerald, surgeon of the Thirteenth Minnesota volunteers, was first lieutenant of B company, same regiment, and was for some time in charge of the military hospital for convalesents at Ma- I nila. Dr. Don Fits Gerald had read the sug gestion of the Manila Times, reported by way of Washington, that a tropical cli mate has a .tendency to weaken the moral fibre, making men Indifferent to the con sequences of criminal acts and that this assumption accounts for the fact that military and civil officers, guilty of pe culations in the, Philippines, have taken so little precaution to conceal their misdoing or to escape punishment. "It's not the climate," commented Dr. Fitz Gerald, "altho it's due, I think, to other features of environment. The cli mate doesn't even injure your health out there, if you take any reasonable care of yourself, and are satised with a moderate use of liquor. During the whole year that our company was working and fighting in Luzon we didn't have more than a dozen cases of serious Illness. This in spite of the fact that we spent months in active campaigning, and the further fact that Manila, when we first lived there, was hor ribly filthy and unwholesome. I didn't notice that our company showed the slightest failing off in discipline or effec tiveness after a year's service. "But I did observe that some soldiers in ou,r army, men with weak character and bad instincts no doubt, committed outrages that they wouldn't have thought of atT tempting here. I knew of fellows that would enter the house of a native, level guns at his head, and demand all the money and jewelry that the family had. And other soldiers or officers would sell army stores to natives and charge the goods up as used for the public. service. "These offenders simply thought that they were defrauding ignorant foreigners who had been accustomed to Spanish op pression and probably wouldn't complain. If they did, the American officers wouldn't take the word of a native as against that of a soldier. It aws a big mistake, of course." "In general, too, men that are far away from their home surroundings are likely to slacken up the moral curb a little. As for speoial causes, one that's important is the desire of army lieutenants on small salaries to keep up the pace set by super ior officers getting three or four times as much pay. "But all sufh inducements to crime have nothing to do with climate. They would exist just the same among soldiers and civilians sent out among the natives of Alaska."

Having met In Mankato for the second time they decided that with out each other life would be a dreary thing, so they arranged to meet in Min neapolis and become man and wife. They did meet yesterday, but a tele phone message from Mankato caused the clerk of court's office to refuse them a marriage license, and when they got to St. Paul the forethought of young Palmer's parents had caused to be posted in the Ramsey county clerk of court's office a bulletin announcing that no mar riage license would be issued to the couple from.

The fire broke out in the basket-room, probably from crossed electric wires, and was well under way when it was discov ered. One df the stablemen turned in an alarm and others began to battle with the flames. When the firemen arrived ad ditional apparatus was called for. Seventeen horses were in the barn and only four were saved. The others became unmanageable, the fire soon reached them and the barn men were compelled to leave them. The barn was a frame structure covered with corrugated iron. Lines were carried thru the bakery proper and after an hour's hard fight the fire was under control. - BLAZIE AT THE Dental Department of 'Medical Building Suffers $2,000 Loss.

The flames were confined to the dental de partment.

Relief Was Sought in Connection With Charges" on Chicago' -*:': , .Shipments. \' The state organization of municipalities, with headquarters at Cannon Falls, has had something of a setback in the turn ing down by the 'interstate commerce commission of an application in the mat ter of rates which it was backing. Rail road men believe that the matter was pushed rather as an advertisement than because justice was inherent in its de mands. The interstate commerce commission has denied the application of the Cannon Falls Elevator company for a readjust ment of the grain rates between Minne apolis and Chicago and Cannon Falls and Chicago. The complaint charged discrim ination on the part of both the Great Western and the Milwaukee roads. It was charged that in-contravention of the interstate commerce law these rpads exacted a rate of 15 cents a hundred pounds on small grain from Cannon Falls to Chicago and Milwaukee while making a rate of 7% cents from Minneapolis to these points, 40 miles farther from Min neapolis than from Cannon Falls. The complainant company stated that it was a large buyer of rye at Cannon Falls, and that with a parity of rates it could mar ket its grain at Louisville, Ky., but that with existing rates it was unable to com pete with Minneapolis shippers. Under the present tariff, the rate from Cannon Falls is 15 cents and the rate to Minneapolis 7 cents, so that by reshipping at Minneapolis the grain takes one-half cent less, but this discrepancy applied only to shipments east of Chicago so the relief was denied. A GIANT SYSTEM Long Figures Necessary to Indicate the Pennsylvania's Business. A writer in the Commercial Advertiser in New York yesterday compared the condensed income accounts of the Penn sylvania road for the year ending Dec. 30, 1902, with the New York Central's figures for the year ending June 30, 1903, as follows: Miles operated 3,320 Gross earnings $70,903,868 Operating expenses.. 46,803,489 Net earnings 24,040,379 Other incomes 4,876,023 Total income 28,916,402 Rentals and charges. 21,199,684 Net income 7,716,718 Dividends 5,961,411 Surplus 1,765,307 Capital stock 132,250,000 Bonds 193,000,000 Within the presentkyear the Pennsylvania has increased its capital stock by an amount which will bring the total up to $301,000,000 official statement has been made of any iincrease i in the capital account of the New York Central, Pennsylvania. 3,706 $112,663,630 75,051,072 37,612,258 9,029,876 46,652,134 20,802,171 25,848,963 12.799,019 13,05(J,944 250,000,000 140,000,000 official statement has been made of any pi altho both, bonds and stock issues have been authorized by the stockholders. It is. however generally understood that the Central has ac quired securities at a total cost of about $22,- 000,000, to be financed in the near future. The most casual examination of the income accounts given above develops the tremendous financial strength of the Pennsylvania. Its gross income can diminish 10 per cent and with operating expenses and fixed charges at the present level it could continue to pay dividends on its increased or present outstanding capital stock at the present rate and still have a sur plus. POND DENIES AGAIN Says Wisconsin'Central Has- Not Asked for a Differential. General Passenger Agent Pond again enters denial to the story that the Wis consin has asked a differential from the other lines on passenger business between Minneapolis and Chicago. He believes that, instead, the Central will be asked favors. Mr. Pond says that his $8 rate to Chicago has created a great deal of traffic. FEST TICKETS SCALPED This Makes It Possible to Go to Chicago for $4. The rate to Chicago at the scalpers' offices is now about $4, owing to the sale of the return part of the seven-day tickets to the sangarfest. The rate of $8 to Min neapolis was effective from Chicago last Monday, and many of the holders do not intend to return in the limit. This has caused a drop in the sale of tickets at the regular offices of the different roads. Brokers have agreed on a price from $1.75 to $2 for the unused portions of the transportation.

The strange story behind the claim that is about to be asserted is one that lawyers can verify from historical records, it is said journals of councils, and the private papers of the Wiltbank family. The three heirs who are prepared to.prove that the old bell is their just property are Mrs. James McCluskey and Mrs. Sydney Wright of Germantown, grand nieces of Wiltbank and a niece who lives in Brook lyn. - SCHISM IN UNION PARTY Not All Members Favor a Free Trade Policy. New York Sun Special Service. - London, July 23.A meeting of a section of Liberal Unionists, held for th purpose of forming a tariff reform league, has deepened the cleavage in the govern ment party.
