DYSPEPSIA REMEDY THAT CURES
If Ki-o-na Does Net Cure the Red
Cross Pharmacy Will Feturn
Your Honey.
Among all the remedies in the Ked Cross
Pharmacy, the iojiilar drug store, there
are few that they are williini to sell on a
guarantee to refund the money if they do
not cure. .Mio-iia, the famous dyspepsia
remedy, has made so many cures anions;
their customers that Mr. Iiickert says: " If
tnis remedy does not cure you. come back
to our store ami we will cheerfully return
your money."
Anyone who has dyspepsia, indigestion,
headaches, dizzy feelings, or liver troubles,
should take advantage of this chance to be
made well without any risk of spending
their money to no purpose. Mi-o-na will
cure; will regulate the digestion; will
enable am one to eat w hat he wants. If it
does not do all this, the medicine will not
cost you a cent.
The lied Cross Pharmacy has sold hun
dreds of boxes of Mio-n-a in the last few
weeks and has yet to receive the first com
plaint from any customer. Sueh a record
is simply marvelous and speaks volumes
for the merit of the remedy.
It is easy enough to till a column with
the symptoms afflicting those who have
dyspepsia, but there is no need of describ
ing their condition. What they want is a
cure. And they have It in Mi-o-na.
Do not suffer a day longer with disor
dered digestion. If Mi-o-na cures you it
costs fiOc a box", and if it does not, you
have the Bed Cross Pharmacy's personal
guaarantee to return your money.

Irvlngtou, X. Y Mny 2.S. The Iden
tity of the man who shot mid killed
John Jloffernan near the Ardsley club
house on Sunday ni jlit continues to be
a mystery which bullies the local au
thorities. After the inquest here a
statement was circulated that Dr. liob

thnt he recognized the man who snot
Liin and knew him to be one of the
members of the Ardsley club. Dr.
Denniston said later:
"That statement is a lie. I was with
Ileft'ernan when lie was dying iu the
Dobhs l-'prry hospital. lie was con
scious ami perfectly rational. ' I asked
him if he could describe ids assailant,
nnd ho said: 'The man was well dress

was accustomed to good clothes. He
did not look like a gentleman.' I have
not the slightest Idea who lie could be.
I think ho mistook me for one of the

service-, who was relieved from duty
some time Ago, ha" been arrested at
the instigation of the post cilice de
partment charged, with receiving

ceiving bribes amounting in nil to
about $22.(XiO In connection with a eon
tract held by Grolf Pros, of Washing
ton, for a patent fastener used on
street letter boxes, known as the Groff
fastener. The post office department
in the past ten years has used about
$100,000 worth of these fasteners, and
it Is shown by ample evidence that
for the past three years at least Mr,
Machen has been receiving 40 per cent
of the amounts paid to the Groffs.
The transaction of the business was
conducted by Diller B. Groff, who con
trols the patent of his brother, Samuel
M., a policeman."

New York, May 2-V Three children
perished with their mother In a lire in
a five story apartment house at 300
West One Hundred and ' Thirty-fifth
street, and the father and a fourth
child and another tenant were serious
ly burned.
The fire was started by an incen
diary, and the police are searching for
a man who, with his hands covered
with oil, was seen running from the
place Immediately after the Are started.
Fire Marshal Freel found stairways
as far up as the third floor soaked with
kerosene oil. It appeared as if the in
cendiary had been at work In the house
for a long time before-he was discov
ered by Johnson.
That more persons were not burned
in the Are is attributed to the action of
a rnotorman on an elevated train who
saw the smoke and blew the compress
ed air whistle. The screeching of the
whistle aroused the whole neighbor
hood.
Captain Martens said that the fire
was believed to have been started by a
tenant of the house who had been evict
ed. He also said there had been many
brawls among the tenants In the block.

Thurmond, W. Va., May 2S.The
first serious outbreak since the late
strike order was issued lias occurred
at the Big Q mines on Laurel creek not
far from here. For several days the
strikers at that point have been mak
ing an effort to induce the nonunion
men to join their ranks. The strikers
began marching in a Itody toward the
mines. The guards on duty, half a
dozen iu number, at sight of the march
ing body opened fire.
The strikers quickly returned the
fire, but as they were yet at long range
the shooting was not effective, and
only one person, Marshall Brown, a
guard, was killed in the battle. Sev
eral received minor injuries. Brown
was shot through the stomach, the bul
let being from a Winchester, and he
.lived but a short time. More than luC
shots were fired before the strikers re
treated. More trouble is anticipated.

speculation in the cotton market, was
small. The overnight developments
were conflicting. Liverpool at the
time of the local opening was about

near months nnd unchanged to 4
points higher on the late positions,
the greatest loss being recorded iu
August, which sold at 10.70 on the
call. Following the call the market
ruled quiet, but after declining 3 to A

CI. D. 01B80N MACK,
110 Treniont St., Boston, says of
Blanchard, la., May 2S.-A most de
structive and fatal tornado struck the
town of Elmo, Mo., eight miles south
of Blanchard and just across the Mis
souri state line. Nine persons were
killed outright and five were injured.
some of whom may die.
The storm caila from the northeast
and first struck the Wabash depot.
The Masonic temple next was demol
ished. On the lower floor of the tem
ple was a general merchandise store,
in which were several citizens. The
building was torn .to pieces beforo any
warning was received, and tlie victims
were buried beneath tlie wreckage.
Of the fourteen persona in the store
only five escaped death, and three re
ceived injuries which in two or three
cases may prove fatal. Tlie storm
passed on through the town, leaving
but a few buildings standing. A relief
party at once began the rescue of those
in the ruins of the temple, and nine
bodies were removed to an improvised
morgue. Five others were taken out,
some with broken legs and arms and
in each case serious if not fatal in
juries.
Tlie storm came on with great sud
denness and almost destroyed tlie town
before the people realized what had
happened. After leaving Elmo it con
tinued into, the country in a south
west direction, and it is feared more
fatalities have occurred. Several dwelf-
mgs are known to have Mown to
pieces, but the fate of their occupants
is unknown. A deluge of rain added
to the misfortune of the stricken peo
ple. Village of Itotnit I)-M r j ert.
When wire communication with in
terior towns was opened up it became
apparent that the tornado in Iowa
caused far greater loss than was at
first reported. A report from Rotna,
in Shelby county, received by way of
Audubon, says that tlie town of Rotna
was completely demolished nnd many
of the farmhouses near that place
were wrecked. At Rotna a large
church and the Owat Western depot
are among the buildings known to
have been wrecked. No definite news
of casualties from there had been re
ceived. At Creston ten dwellings were
blown off their foundations and Mrs
S. E. Troop and her daughter were in
jured in the wreckage of their home.
Ten miles north" of Gray, Audubon
county, two children are reported
killed in tlie wreckage of a farmhouse
and five others injured seriously. All
were occupants of one house.

I "Put more life Into your plea," -Le
nnys, "v ny, you don't show a trace of
passion.'
Then the awe ' inspired student
watches his professor show how ho
used to do It, and then pets down again
to rave and entreat the subject to be
his alone. L'ach budding orator takes
Lis place before a blushing maid, and
no matter how smoothly the pair may
have progressed in private the profess
or finds some fault with the public
demonstration.
"No, kneel on both" kneos-rnow hold
her hand, it impresses her more so,"
and the old professor again kneels ami
goes through it all ove again.
First steps up the bashful student
who simpers, blushes and stammers,
while he talks.
. "Please, miss," he will say, "I love
you dearly. Will you marry me?" For
it is ten to one that he has enjoyed
himself so much laughing at Ids pred
ecessors that he has failed to observe
even what Professor .Trueblood con
quers tne proper form.
"Oh, my," the professor breaks out,
'the little you know about this busi
ness is astonishing!
"Now, you wouldn't accept him if he
couldn't do better than that, would
ou, Miss ?
"Look, now. I'm tired of your not
paying closer attention. Get on your
knees gracefully; like this, you
"P-cnch over and grasp her hand
wifli both of yours-both, mind-then
Make your proposal, but make it as 'a

'liaise your voice.
"Speak with passion.
"If your subject doesn't suit, I will
give you another.
"I did think men ought to be taught
to propose, but I didn't know tliey were
nil as ignorant as you seem to be."
Again the poor professor to
to get down on his soro knees and pour
out another plea for the maiden's hand.
Then, at the end of the hour, the class
passes out, only to make room for more
or the orators, who must be shown.
I rofessor Trueblood thinks he has to.
do more than his share of the work,
but in spite of that he think he will
be well repaid if he is
the road to success for inn nf i,ta
pupils. ,
I don't think it is fair for Mm tn

work, said one Student. "I xrlsb. bo

Professor Trueblood addresses few
