WHY APPENDICITIS
Why is appendicitis so common "to-
day?
Because we have got into the per
nicious habit of eating too fast.
Dr. Curtis, the great authority on
this disease, says: "Appendicitis of
ten follows the eating of a very hasty
or particularly large or indigestible
meal.''
After carelessly following a foolish
custom, you can insure your safety by
taking Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets!
It IB an acceptedj scientific truth,
which admits of no displte, that if you
will only keep your digestive appara
tus in good order, you will never suffer
from this dread disease, which, at best,
means a weakening operation, with
long weeks wasted in bed, and big doc
tor's and surgeon's bills to pay as sou

ly realizes that less than a year ago
the city was almost destroyed by a
memorable fire. A similar comparison
might bo made by George W. Nally,

A short time ago Mr. Nally, writing
from his home address, 2213 Barclay

for years with catarrh and had resort

thought of. Mv wife was also afflicted
with this terrible disease, but all thewill
treatments we used were an absolute
failure until wo tried Hyomei. It
worked like a charm and has made a
complete cure in both of our cases."
Voegeli Bros., corner Hennepin and

local agents for Hyomei, have so much
faith in the treatment that they

TELLS STORY OF
"CARDIFF GIANT"
MICHAEL FOLEY OF FORT DODGE
QUARRIED THE STONE.
Old Iowan Has Just Celebrated His
Eighty-second BirthdayStone from
Gypsum Quarry Was Carved Into the
Giant in Chicago and Buried in New
York.
Special to The Journal.
Fort Dodge, Iowa, Oct. 24.Surrounded hy a
hnppy family of children and grandchildren,
Michael Foley of this city celebrated his eighty
second birthday anniversary with good chances
for participating In many to come. Mr. Foley
has lived a quiet life for many years, but remem
bers well the time that he was engaged to
quarry the rock which was afterward made Into
"Cardiff giant," one of the most colossal
frauds ever perpetrated upon an unsuspecting
public.
It was in the month of July, 1868, that two
men, one giving his name as Hull, of Syracuse,
N. Y., and the other Martin, claiming to be from
Cedar Kapids, engaged quarters at the old St.when
Charles hotel in this city. They pretended to
be studying the geographical conditions about
Fort Dodge. They made several Inquiries as
to where they could find a large ledge of gyp
sum rock. They even went so far as to buy
an acre of ground and quarried It with a view
of finding out just what they wanted, but failed,
They were finally Informed in a casual way
that Michael Foley, who was engaged In getting
out rock for a railroad company, could in all
probably get them what they wanted. When
pressed for an explanation as to what purpose
they Intended putting the rock, Hull explained
that they were going to ship it to New York
to exhibit for the purpose of raising a stock
company to manufacture plasterparls. Martin
said they were going to tuke it to Springfield,
111., as Iowa's contribution to the Lincoln monu
ment, which was then being built.
When Mr. Foley was interviewed consernlng
the stone, he informed them that he could fill
their order. He had just stripped a ledge of
gypsum rock about 100 feet long. On the topmunicipal
of this he drilled some twelve holes and poured
In about fifteen pounds of powder. A long fuse
touched it off at once and the rock was broken
loose in spleuded condition. It was twenty
four feet long, three feet wide and eighteen
inches thick.
The stone was shipped to Chicago, where It
was given in charge of a sculptor, who carved it
into a giant, pricked it with needles, while it
was soft, to give it the appearance of human
skin, treated it with acids to give it the an
cient appearance, and packed it in an Iron box,
twelve feet long, four feet wide and three feet
deep, und In this manner shipped it to George
Olds, at Union, X. Y. It arrived at Union on
Oct. 13. 1808. On Nov. 4, a man claimed the
box. receipted for It, loaded it on a large wagon,
hitched four horses on and carted it fifty miles
to a place near Cardiff, in Onondaga county.
New York., where the giant was buried and
remained until Oct. 1C, 1869, nearly a year, when
the resurrection took place while men were pre
tending to dig for a well. Special trains were
run from New York, carrying visitors by the
thousands, to see it. and it is estimated that
50,000 persons visited the bpot the first week
after It was discovered and paid $1 each for a
sight of the giant made from the stone quarried
by Michael Foley.
LEAVES THE TICKET
Democratic Nominee in Palo Alto Not
in Sympathy with His Party.
WEST BEND, IOWA.C. E. Clark of Ruth
Ten, democratic nominee for clerk of courts of
Palo Alto county, has withdrawn from the ticket.
It is Intimated that as he voted the gold demo
cratic ticket in 1S96 and has always opposed the
free silver heresy, that he is not in sympathy
with the party.
The grand jury went on a tour of inspection
of the county jail, being led to do so by the
escape of two thieves, Brown and Martin, whd
are still free. They reported to Judge A. D.
Bailie of Storm Lake that the jail Is "unsani
tary, unsafe nnd Insecure, and that the only
remedy Is the building of a new one." Judge
Bailie thereupon ordered all prisoners to be con
fined in the county jail of Kossuth county at
Algona. The voters of the county have twice
voted down the proposition of a new county jail.
James Murry, better known as "Jesse James,"
aged 18, was sent by Judge Bailie to the state
dipsomania institute at Cherokee for three years.
IOWAN'S GREAT FIND
Professor Webster's Discovery of Pot
ash Beds of First Importance.
CHARLES CITY. IOWA.The growing de
mand for potash has resulted in stimulating
-search for it in the United States, and scien
tists of world-wide repute, as well as miners and
many others, have lone searched the vast do
mains of the west, tho south, the north for this
product, sinking shafts, boring wells and travel
ing the great alkali plains' for the product,
which they believed existed somewhere. All this
labor had. however,. up to a short time ago,
yielded but alight hopes of ultimate success.
However, Professor Clement L. Webster, a geol
ogist and mining expert of Charles City, has
discovered crude potash in the Hocky mountain
region In practically inexhaustible quantities,
and of a quality and purity never known.
'ireat quantities or crude potash are annually
imported into this country from abroad, especi
ally from Germany, and as the heretofore known
sources for the manufacture of this material
In America are rapidly decreasing, the outlook
was unusually bright for the imported article
to dominate the American market for a long time
to come. The discovery made by Professor
Webster, however, will soon effectually bar this
product.

LEAD, S. D.The political enthusiasm of
Lawrence county seems confined entirely to Lead
this year, and here the sentiment is practically
one-sided. It is taken to assure the election
of the entire republican county ticket.
On every post and in nearly every conspic
uous place about the Homestake mills and other
buildings placards have been posted bearing the
legend "Vote the republican ticket straight."
On a trip thru the building the visitor is con
fronted by one of these notices every few

knowledge that they express the feelings of the
voters.

the campaign of Lead is the avowed purpose of

The enthusiasm of the Lead voters would
save the county ticket, notwithstanding a possi

the county. As a matter of fact, however, the
republicans will receive majorities in almost

SAYS LA FOLLETTE
DECLARES HIS MAJORITY WILL
BE LARGER THAN BEFORE.
Stalwart Bolt Is Not a New Thing and
Many Democrats Will Vote for Him
Republican Electors Will Carry the
State by a Large Plurality.
Special to The Journal.
Stoughton, Wis., Oct. 24.Governor La Fol-Special
lette has not given an authorized interview since
he was nominated until he was interviewed here
after his political address.
"You are to be elected?" he was asked.
He smiled and nodded.
"Yes," said he, I am confident that I am
to be elected by a majority larger than 'I had
two years ago perhaps by a majority larger
than I have ever had. I hope to get many votes
from democrats who believe in my principles,
and do not expect to be cut more than usual by
the stalwarts.
"You see, this is not a new fight. There has
always been a stalwart bolt. I figured that I
was cut 85,000 votes by the stalwarts in 1902,
I ran for governor the second time. Per
haps I shall lose more vote3 than that this
year, but I shall not lose enough to defeat me.
"It took a long time to get the primary elec
tion law where it is now, before the people will
vote on it this fall, and I believe approve it. I
began work along these lines in 1896.
"I have had a rate commission, a plan for a
body of men who shall have the
power to fix rates and see that they are
lived up to, who shall have the power to examine
books and do away with the pernicious rebate
system, in my mind, for some years, but I have
never allowed it in a republican platform until
this year. Why? Because I do not try to do too
much at once. I fimily believe the legislature
this fall will pass this rate commission bill."
"Does your plan contemplate similar treatment
for other public corporations, such as street
railway, telegraph, telephone, electric light and
other similar utilities?"
"Yes, in time."
"Do your ideals go so far as to contemplate
ownership of these public utilities?"
"No, unless such a plan of supervision falls.
I do not think it will fail. I am confident it
will not. But if in time it is found there is a
way to get around it and the contingency should
arise, for example, wherein the corporations
might control the commission and thus regulate
the rates themselves, then some such step as
municipal ownership would have to come, for
the people must be protected against these cor
porations."
"Will President Roosevelt carry Wisconsin?"
"Certainly. There can be no doubt of it. I
do not think the stalwarts will cut him, altho
the republican electors do not appear in the
stalwart column on the ballot. Still the repub
licans of Wisconsin are used to splitting tick
ets. They have had a lot of it to do in the last
fifteen years. Of course, there will be some
votes for the stalwart ticket that will be wasted
because of wrong marked ballots, but that will
not amount to much."

MICHIGAN
STATE MAKERS
IN NEW CAMPAIGN
RESIDENTS OF PENINSULA ANX-
IOUS FOR SEPARATION.
Many Are Out of Touch with the South
ern Part of the State, and Take but
Little Interest in Public Affairs
Three Probable Candidates for
Capital.
to The Journal.
Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., Oct. 24.The old
idea of making a new state of the upper penin
sula has been revived by the citizens of this
part of Michigan. But the old plan of tacking
on a part of Wisconsin has been dropped,- the
general opinion being that the upper peiiinsnla
is large and rich enough to become a separate
state without acquiring any new territory.
Advocates of the plan favor calling the state
Superior, which would be the most representa
tive name that could be chosen. The upper
peninsula is growing rapidly, both in population
and wealth. Its mining interests are assuming
mammoth proportions, while it will be but a
short time before some of its cities will be
large manufacturing centers.
One of the chief reasons for wanting a change
is that the peninsulas really have very little in
common. In politics,, the northern part of
the state has never been represented as it should
be, leading politicians feeling that they have
been given nothing but the crumbs. Their
strongest men have been turned down in favor
of less worthy aspirants for public favor, simply
because, it is alleged, the upper peninsula has
always been sure to give a big republican ma
jority.
A mapority of the people of the upper penin
sula know nothing of the southern part of "the
state. Many of them have come from the
west others from Canada and the south. There
fore, they do not take the interest in state af
fairs that they would were the upper peninsula
to bacome a state by itself.
Marquette, the Soo and Menominee will prob
ably enter the race for the state capital. Mar
quette has the best natural location, as it is
nearest to the center' of the peninsula, but theWOMEN
other towns have many advantages that would
make them strong bidders for the prize.

FIVE HOLDUPS IN ONE NIGHT
Police Powerless to Handle All Evil
doers at Fargo.
FARGO, N. D.This city seems to be pass
ing thru an epidemic of crime and the police ap
parently are powerless. The "strong-arm men"
began shortly after supper time last night and
two of the victims were young women. The first
holdup took place a few minutes after 6 o'clock,
and the victim was a working girl on her way
home with her week's-wages. The usual com
mand "hands up' 'and the presenting of a re
volver were used in each case. -Handbags and
were- obtained and the robbers got
away.
One young fellow who was stopped happened
to have a stick and made a Quick move and
caught the highwayman over the face and head
with the result that the robber took to his heels.
Altogether there were five holdups, but nothing
was accomplished by the police and the thieves
obtained but little.
A well dressed young fellow tried his hand
at raising "easy money" thru the forged check
route and the buying of clothing and getting a
substantial amount In change back. As it hap
pened the local clothing men have become rather
wily and all checks now have to pass thru a
rigid censorship, and that is how Roy Lowry
became entangled in meshes which landed him
in the county jail to await trial. Before coming
to Fargo he tried to cash the fraudulent paper
in saloons and clothing houses in Moodhead.
The name he attached to the check was that of
a prominent insurance man.
Numerous comjjlalntfc' havi beien, made of at
tempted assaults- on'jyojing' gfrbv aha the police
are making every effort to catch a well dressed
middle-aged man who points a revolver at the
head of the victim attacked and then invites
the girl to a secluded spot near by.
Oscar Camp, a returning harvest hand, trusted
two friends too implicitly and displayed his
roll of $150 while taking a social glass over in

BRUTALMUBBER IN WOODS
ANDREW BLUM SLAIN BY SPADE
AND KNIFE IN HANDS OF UN
KNOWN MAN.
Two Harbors, Minn., Oct. 24.The remains
of the murdered man found at a deserted lumber
camp neur mile post No. 44, on the Duluth &
Iron Range road, two miles north of Highland
station and fifteen miles north of here, have been
identified by several persons as those of Andrew
Blum, and not Ed Peterson, as formerly re
ported.
The crime appears to be one of the most
brutal and fiendish ever committed in this part
of the state. The details as yet only can he
i surmised from the appearance of the room where
the murder was done, and the wounds on the
remains. The motive was robbery. That the
crime was premeditated, and possibly was per
petrated while the victim was Bleeping, is prob
able.
The remains were found in an old caved-in
roothouse, about 125, feet in the rear of the
abandoned camp. The wounds indicated the
desperation of the murderer, and the precautions
taken by him to make sure his victim was dead.
The first blow was inflicted by a spade, which
struck on the temple and cut a long gash. Four
times was a knifeblade driven into the man's
left breast his throat was cut, and the back of
his head was pounded into a pulp. The body
then was dragged feet first to the place where
found.
About 150 feet from the body, hidden under
some brush which the person who concealed it
had broken to cover It, was found a valise, the
contents of which indicated it was the property
of A. O. Hammerbore.
The murdered man had been employed at one
of O'Brien's camps at Cloquet river for about
nine days. He left that camp Friday, Oct. 14
in company with Hammerborg, and they started
south on the tracks. Saturday, Hammerborg
arrived in Two Harbors and stated that he had
not had a thing to eat for a day and a half.
He carried his effects in a bag over his shoulder.
He took a boat for Duluth that same evening.
He was at the home of his brother-in-law, in Su
perior, on Sunday, and on Monday went to Du
luth, where he cashed his timecheck. Every
possible effort Is being made to locate him, as it
is thought he may be able to give some informa
tion.

It is the nerves that cause the heart to pul
sate, the lungs to inhale the oxygen, the brain
to direct the motion of every organ of the
body, the stomach to digest food, the liver to
secrete the bile, the kidneys to filter the blood,
the bowels to carry off the waste.
When the nerves of the stomach become weak
ened or exhausted, indigestion, constipation and
inflammation result, because the stomach is in
active.
This is true of "all the organs of the body and
proves that to cure disease you* must strengthen
the nerves.

bringing them back to health never fails to
cure all cases of Nervousness Sleeplessness, Neu

"For two years physicians and health resort*
failed to relieve me of a complication of stom
