The Only Thing Needed To Remove Bronchitis, Catarrh, Consumption and Pneumonia From the List of Danger ous Diseases Is the Education of the People. Teach Them to Use Nature's Remedy and Nature's Method of Trcat metjt, Thin We Need Wo Linger Fear Diseases of the Air Passages in Throat and Lungs. -• Thi- !s the Verdict of Thlrty-EigHt Hun dred Physicians i ho Have Found In ''Uyomci," tUi Australian Dry Air Treat incut, a Cure for These Diseases. Ever since the discovery that Catarrh, Bronchitis, Pneumonia and Consump tion were purely local diseases, caused by the prew nee of bacilli in the air passages, the medical profession throughout the wi»le world have bent all their en< rgiea to finding some me thod, or remedy, by which the--e bacilli could be iv. : tied and destroyed. How they have succeeded Is best void l>y a glance at the rep mis published by the different boards of health in all the larger i-iik's in this country, which Bhow not only a great increase in the number of deaths yearly from these dist-asos. hut a startling growth in the number of persona afflicted. This fail ure to flnd a cure for diseases of the respiratory organs must not be con ptrued t>; mean a lack of ability on the pait of the medical profession, '.'or tlu-y have discovered many remedies which ' would kill these germs. Yet, strange to say. not one of them could bo conveyed to the parts affected by dry air; con- sequently, were of no value in the * treatment of these diseases, as it i« absolutely Impossible for moisture of any kind to enter the bronchial tubes an<i lungs. It can be readily then that the discovery of "Hyomei." a ger micide of sufficient power to kill at j once the bacilli of these diseases, and j at the same time volatile enough to im pregnate every particle of air breathed by the patient, yet leaving it free from moisture, was one of vital importance to the medical world. Doctors through out the whole country began to test the efficacy of this new remedy, and now, after two years' trial in hundreds of casts under their own care, over 3.800 physicians claim tbat "Hyomei," the Australian Dry Air Cure, is the only treatment by which all the diseased parts of the "respiratory organs can be readhed and cv Furthermore, it is claimed that in families who are predisposed to Catarrh ami Consumption, if the fathers and mothers will but instruct their children in the use of "Hyomei" the rising generation will be fre^d from those dread diseases. This is not only true in Catarrh and Consumption, for It has been found that Asthma, Bronchitis, pneumonia, Hay Fever and Croup suc cumb at once to thUb new germicide, ' to-hile Cuughs and Colds cannot exist %-here it ts used. It would seem, then, that nothing remains to be done in cm - these diseases from the list of dangerous ones but to teach the people th-? value of "Hyomei," and the R. T.

The above words, penned on a piece of paper, comprised the only message left by Walter D. Todd, sixteen yean of age, who shot himself through the heart early yesterday morning In the Offices of the St. Paul & Duluth rail road, on the seventh floor of the Globe building-. Todd was employed by the Paul & Duluth as stationary mail olork aad occupied a de?J; near the en trance to the offices of General Man ager Plough and Purchasing Agent Schoff. William Stafford, colored, entered the office at 7:40 in the morning and, to his surprise, found Todd sitting: at ihe a, s v of Carl Wahlatrom, Mr. Sehoffs as sistant. Stafford s.iid: "Why, Walter, what are you doing here so early?" The boy evaded the question and re turned: "Say, W.ll, do you kn. w that insanity runs in our family? 1 did not g,> home last night. Will. And say, if you were to shoot a man, where would you hit him. through the h-art or the head?" Stafford knew the boy's liking for jokes, and, thinking n-othing of trie question, responded that if he wanted to kill a man he would likely shoot him through the heart. He asked Todd why he asked such a ridiculous ques tion and the lad answered: "Well, I am soing to kill a man, that:* all." Stafford Immed ately expostulated] with Todd and finally grot the boy to pass it off as a joke. Stafford then went to the \v;ish room, leaving Todd Bitting: at Wahlstrom's de?k, scribbling away on a block of paper with a per.. When Stafford returned to the office in less than four minutes:, he noticed Todd j lying on the floor beneath the chair. I The colored man thought that Todd was playing some sort of a joke on him so ordered the boy to get up. When he turned the boy over Stafford was horrified to see the pallid face and the fixed eyes. The boy was gasping for breath. Stafford ran to the elevator and call ed to the elevator man to get a doctor, but before the physician could be even informed Todd was dead. A piece of paper was found on the desk where Todd was Bitting, on which were a nurmber of freshly made ink marks. Only the words, "So long, ev eryone," were eligible. By Todd's side was found a modern 38-calibre revolver. One shell was empty. Deputy Coroner A. N. Nelson visited the office and made a search for any further message, but without success. Nothing- that would throw any light on the subject was found in the boy's clothing. The body was removed to the morgue. It will be taken to the home of the father. David Todd, 460 Ban croft street. The funeral will lie held from the house tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. The suicide was a son of David Todd, traveling auditor for the St. Paul & Duluth railroad. He entered the em ploy of the company in January. 1897, and was very popular with all who knew him. He was an industrious lad and very bright. He liked to read ro mances and always had a book or two with him. He also dabbled quite a lit tle in electricity in an amateurish way. The deceased leaves a mother, father and two sisters, Isabel and Majorie, I the latter being five years old. The suicide was an usher at the Metropolitan opera house In the bal cony.

Here are some of their pessimistic proverbs: "Beware of a bad woman, and put no faith in a good one." "The best women in Spain are those whose leg 3 are broken; that is, those who cannot go oiu."

Some Promotions Recently Made Routine Work at the I'rencnt Lo eiition PerNonal Goniiln About Some of the Twin City Men. Special Corespondence The St. Paul Globe. CAMP WIKOFP, Montauk, N. V., Oct. 2, —Orders came to camp last week direct ing Companies F and Q to get ready to break camp and move to Camp Wheeler, Huntsvllle, Ala., as soon as transportation can be secured. Pursuant to this order, preparations were made to pack up and be in readiness to move. But we are still here, without any certain hour for removal. The island is almost deserted, there being only a few regiments remaining. The work of the engineers ia about completed and the re moval of the whole regiment to other quar ters is only a question of a few days. At present details from the engineers are busy erecting corrals for 1,500 mules and building feod boxes an.d watering troughs for them. In this corral lire being gathered ell the strays on the island, regardless of the cavalry to which they belong. other details are clearing up the abandoned camps burning outbuildings and cleaning up around the hospitals. Those not on detail are re quired to drill a stated length of time each day. There has been but comparatively little sickness in the camp of the Second regiment engineers, most cases being confined to quar ters on account of miner complaints rheu matism and kindred ills. A few typhoid fever "suspects" were removed from the regimental to the general hospital, which subsequently proved to be typhoid in a mid form; outside of these few cases the camp has been quite free from sickness and the report of a typhoid fever epidemic is with out foundation. The companies not going to Huntsvillp have been moved several hun dred feet from former quarters in order to remove all possibility of danger of infec tion from surroundings. Several of Company G have been away on furloughs, and have returned in time to move South with the company, among them Sergeants Carlson and Tundy, Corporal Dur diu and Privates Latta, Aultman. Walkow sk , Ekola, Rogers, Kentz and Musician In- Cebretson. Musician Sweeney weret on a twenty-day furlough to visit his parents in Minneapolis yesterday. ' Today memorial servLes are being held at the graveyard over the so'.diers who died from sickness in camp. The weather here is unusually fine and the severe storms which have-' been antici pated so long have as yet failed to ma terialize. Among the pastimes which the boys enjoy is the Dleasure of occasionally roaming ever the "point" and gathering wild grapes which grow here in abundance. The native grape is larger than the time grape grown in Min nesota. Wild cranberries I are also quite plentiful around the swamps and marcheg. The experiences which Company G has hid amidst trie horrors of Camp Wikoff have been varied in the extreme and such that they will ii*ver be forgotten. The boys will be glad to leave such unuleasant memories and sur roundings and go anywhere. Three d ser tions in the past two weeks have occurred from Company G. Two of them. Privates Parmerter and Kastoryz, were applicants lor discharge from service, whose applications were refused, and the other, Private Corey was under arrest under several charges. Among the promotions recently ordered was that of Wilfred O. Stout, from sergeant to sergeant major, and second-class Privates Beck and Bunce to first-class privates. Sergeant Gilman, who has been "acting quartermaster sergeant of the company* has decided not to supply the boys with tobacco cigars and other necessaries in the future This fact is to be regretted as it has been a great accommodation and one which will be sadly missed when the new camp is reached Private Cellyhan has also been promoted from first-class private to sergeant, to fill the vacancy caused by the promotion of Sergeant Stout. Sergeant Stout's promotion to that of bat talion sergeant major is the -first recognition in the line of promotion which any of Com pany G has received since its organization and the company is consequently proud of the new sergeant major. There are few chances for promotion among the engineers and but little to ctir ihe am bitions of the most zealous, especially where the work to be done is as menial as rhe exigencies of Camp "Wikoff !m\v demanded. It is to be hoped that when the regular duties of the regiment begin thisy will be of >uch a character as are commonly er.Jolutd upon the regular engineers. It is probable that rhe prevalent discontent, which naturally follows work of the character reauired of the engineers since their arrival at Camp Wikoff, will ccaee and a better feel ing prevail under the n*w conditions, poon to be enjoyed. Officers end men alike feel that they have lone their full duty at Camp Wikoff, and look forward with pleasure to the time when they shall assume the position to which the engineers are entitled, namely the highest branch of the military service."

He Can't E«.t, Sleep, Can't Get Com fort Any Way hut One Pyramid Pile Cure Will Cure Him, Give Relief at Once. Just a little pain may so distract a man's mind that it will cost him hun dreds of dollars. Life is a battle. To succeed one needs all his energies and all his brain force to apply to the ques tion at hand. Even a corn will make him irritable, cross, angry — and an angry man seldom succeeds. The trifling pain of a corn is a pleasant feeling besides the agonizing ache of piles. That is a pain which seems to pervade the whole body. It communi cates Itself to all parts near the seat | of the trouble and brings on a heavy, j dragging feeling in the perineum. Those I who have never so suffered do not know what it means. It racks the nerves, prevents sleep, prevents con centrated thought, and makes a man lo^e flesh as fast as he would with a virulent fever. And yet piles are looked upon as a little thing. They are neglected—al lowed to run on from month to month and year to year. By and by comes a surgical operation. Maybe it cures— maybe It kills. There is only one sure, safe and quick cure for piles. It is the Pyramid Pile Cure. It is a recent discovery and its properties are such that it cleanses, soothes and heals the inflamed parts, re duces the Inflammation at once, and with continual treatment removes all swelling and all trace of- the disease. It puts 'the membranes In a healthy, active condition, and cures completely and permanently. Prom C. F. Collins, Garraett: "I com menced using the Pyramid Pile Cure and my case was so bad I thought the remedy was going to fall- in my case, but before I had used two-thirds of one package I began to feel much better, and can ihc-nestly say I am entirely cured. It la the quickest and surest remedy I have ever heard of." From Josiah Roberts, £ort Oram, N. J,: "Just one-quarter of a package of the Pyramid Pile cure did wonders for me, and I have lost no opportunity of recommending such a great remedy." From Wm. McHale, Rockport, Mass.: "One -package of Pyramid Pile Cure has helped me more than anything I have yet used." Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by drug gists generally.

LAUGHED TO_THE LAST Nurse's Story oif a Soldier With a Smile on His Dead Face. From Collier's Weekly. Some one has said that trained nurses grow hardened to their work, but the sudden gush of tears which now and then blinds a. nurse in the hospital wards at Montauk would prove the con trary. Especially hard upon these nurses are the night experiences, when life ebbs low and the strain of silence and darkness is over them. Said one soft-eyed night nurse: "Oh, if you could have seen my first patient! He was a lovely 'boy of nine teen, from somewhere out on the Mexi can border. In the four days in which he was under my charge I grew very attached to him, but suddenly, when I was perfectly sure he would soon get well, a violent change came, and, in spite of every care, he died. My heart failed me completely, but there was no time for weakness. Too many cases were needing attention. "I was put in another ward tempo rarily and took especial charge of one very peculiar patient. He lay stolidly staring at me without a particle of expression in his eye, and, by his apathy rather than by real opposition, refused all nourishment and medicine. I couldn't induce him to speak at first, and it took ten minutes of coaxing to persuade him to swallow a teaspoonful of beef tea. Finally he did so, how ever, and after another five minutes he consented to take another and then another, the stolid expression presently changing into one of intelligence. "If you could have seen the change! Why, he laughed and Joked and made such grimaces that my orderly and I were convulsed with laughter, and even the weak men on the neighboring cots feebly joined in the laugh. His non sense was absolutely contagious, so much so that at last I was obliged to slip away into the dispensary to .give him an opportunity to sober down and incidentally to prepare some malted milk. When I returned five minutes later his expression was still a laugh ing one, -and the orderly, although at tending another ppatientt t gave me a knowing smile as I leaned over the weak man's cot. But this time the pa tient did not speak. He was dead, with the smile still on his lips and a strange, half-mischievous wink linger ing about his eyes." Horses In Pajamas.

OHIOAGO, Oct. 5.— A concerted move ment against the entire system of ticK et scalping was inaugurated tonight at the Grand Pacific hotel. The National Association of Merchants and Travelers tendered a banquet to representative railroad men, at which the subject oi ticket-scalping was gone over In all its details. Over 250 guests were present, and John V. Farwell Jr. pr^lded. Both railroad and business men dwelt upon the menace to the commerce and trade of the country from the business of ticket brokerage, and resolutions were adopted authorizing the organization of a central anti-ticket scalping commit tee, with subcommittees and represen tation from all the states. The coming session of congress win 7>e the objec tive point, and energies will be bent in the direction of securing drastic leg islation against the scalping trade. Speeches were made by A. M. Compton, Paul Morton, G. H. Daniels, Adolph Nathan, A. J. Erling and Lafayeite Mc- Willlarns. Following are the resolu tions which were adopted: Resolved. That general railway conditions, the superior character and low cost o( transportation service rendered by American railroads, and the evident desire on-tite part of representative railway man to cultivate a spirit of co-operation and reciprocity betwe n mercantile and common carrier Industrie.;, furnish good reasons for urging manufac turers, merchants and euinmerct tl travelers everywhere to uso their influence, individual ly and collectively, to stcura reasonable and necessary national legislation in the inter est of common carriers. Resolved, That a careful investigation of actual conditions ai d a study of the criminal history of the various states demonstrate clearly the fact that the practice known as railway ticket scalping is pernicious in its effects, unfair In its results, is contrary to the American spirit of fa*r play, is an evasion of the plain intent of the Interstate commerce law as it reids, and, therefore, the practice should be abolished by national legislation. * Resloved, That the government, having as serted the right to regulate and control Inter state commerce, has, therefore, assumed the responsibility of protecting common carriers against unjust attacks upon their revenues. Resolved, That the chairman of this confer ence be authorized and instructed to organize a central anti-ticket scalping committee with subcommittees in each large distributing center throughout the country for the purpo c of co-operating vigorously and continuously •with common carriers until congress shall permanently abolish the vicioua practice of railway ticket scalping.
