the result of the efforts of General
Manager St. John and W. II. M. Pusey
to secure a train for the army over the

receiving encouraging responses from
the farmers to liis appeal for assist
ance for this purpose. He expresses
the hope thnt his friends in Omaha
and Council Bluffs will strictly ob
serve the law even though they are
laboring under great excitement.
The army has only enough pro
visions to last for another meal and
then if relief docs not come they will
be compelled to go hack to the Bluffs.
Reports from all tows near here are
that the people have contributed
plenty of supplies, hut have no means
of getting the stuff to the army.
Kelly thinks that he will not accept
the proposition for transportation to
Kansas City by water except as a last
resort, ns it will not land him any
nearer his destination.

their relief in socurlng horses, wagons and
subsistence to enable them to continue their
march across Iowa, independent of railroads
and corporate charity. All contributions

THE KIND OF MEN THEY ARE.
General Manager St. John Speaks Highly
Kelly’s Army.
Des Moines, Iowa, April 23.—Gen
eral Manager SL John of the Chicago,
Rock Island and Pacific railway, who
passed through this city from Council
Bluffs,said of the ‘‘commonweal army”
now near Council Bluffs: “It is made up
of sober, intelligent determined men.
Nine-tenths of them are American
born. They are respectable, honest,
and remarkably well organized. There
are no ‘bums’ among them. The
statements that have been sent out
Ubout their being tramps and all that
sort of thing are utterly untrue. Their
leader is a man of brains and charac
ter and great determination, and he
is a religious man, too. He is a per
fect gentleman and thoroughly honest.
He will never permit any outrages
to be done by any of his men if there
should be any inclination in that di
rection, which there is certainly not
now. He will nbt permit any tramp
or disreputable person to enlist in his
army and he will remove «ie first one
he can find. He has absolute control
over his men, which he never could
have over a body of tramps or disrep
utables. lie i said to me that
his men would never g-o back
under any circumstances. They are
going to Washington in some way,
of that I am sure. ‘We may be
wrong,' Kelly said to me, ‘but we are
determined to go to Washington and
present a living petition to congress—
one that cannot be thrown into a
waste paper basket. We think we
are right and nothing can stop us.’
What they can accomplish I do not
see, but they are bound to make a
profound impression. There will
be probably 100,000 people in
Washington by the loth of
May on this mission. And
what can we do about it? Nothing
but treat them kindly and let them
go. The more opposition they meet
the stronger they become. The* labor
ing classes all over the country are in
sympathy with them. If they have a
few more days of such treatment as
they have had the last two days I
tremble to tliinjc of what may happen.
You can’t tell what a man will do
when he is hungry and hunted down."
AN “ARMY” ON A NEW PLAN.
Chicago “Common wealers** Propose to
Hand Together to Look for Work.
-Chicago, April "3.—Chicago is to
have a “commonweal army” of its
own, was the announcement made to
day at the headquarters of the move
ment on La Salic street by .1. IL Ran
dall, the recruiting officer. He
said twenty-seven men had
signed the roster and continued: “Our
plans arc to gather as many of the
unemployed who think as we' do to
gether, and when we are organized
we will start out looking for work. A
lot of us have failed in individual ef
forts to secure employment and we
think we will try to see what can he
accomplished by united effort.
Our original plan for joining
either Kelly or Coxey has been aban
doned. Mr. Kelly seems to have all
on hand that he can attend to, and we
will do better by making our own or
ganization and being independent of
any other, except that we are with
them in the general purpose to im
prove the condition of the laboring
men.” '
The police here are prepared to give
outside “Industrialists" very eool re
ceptions and to keep them marching.

will be restricted to the comfortable
seating capacity. When t,he seats are
filled the doors will be closed. No re

A MIRACLE OF TODAY
A STORY THAT EQUALS THE
MIRACLES OF OLD.
A Little Ctrl Suffer* Terrible Agony for
Year*—Physician* Said She ‘ Would l>lo
—Cured at I.a»t—Her Mother Say* It Is
* Miracle.
(From tlie Taunton, Mass., Gazette.)
The following story needs no com
ment whatever. It is the town talk in
YVrentham, Mass., and the child's
mother tells it as follows: Mrs. Fuller
said: “My daughter is now eight years
old. When she was four years old she
had rheumatic fever and at once she
was stricken helpless: she went from
bad to worse until we all despaired of
ever seeing her about again. I em
ployed at various times physicians of
Foxboro, Franklin and Attleboro, but
all to no practical benefit. 1 gave her
all sorts of medicines, and this spring I
buried over two bushels of empty bot
tles which she had emptied from time
to time. One doctor who attended her
said that she had liver complaint and
dropsy, and that she was going to die.
I had given up all hope myself when
last March I happened to get hold of
an Albany, N. Y., paper, and there I
read of a wonderful cure of a man up
that way by a medicine known as Dr.
Williams’ l'ink Fills, the patient hav
ing been attlicted as my daughter was.
At that time her ‘legs were drawn up
behind her, and her arms were almost
helpless. Her head was drawn down
on her shoulder and she was a pitiful
sight, I tell you.
1 SClil auu got LWU UUSCS UI 1 iuis nils,
and when she had used them up I
thought I could see just a bit of improve
ment Then I got two more and she
began to lift herself in bed. and to help
herself in other ways. She kept on
taking the pills, and now she is able to
go over to neighbors, and is bright and
smart. She was a living skeleton;
there was nothing to her but bones,
and they were all out of shape. When
she was first taken sick she was out of
her head, and for three years, if you
will believe me, it was an utter impos
sibility for me to catch more than, five
minutes' sleep at a time, so much care
was she, and such constant attention
did she require, and I was the only one
she would let wait upon her. But I
am glad I did so, and now I am getting
my reward," and the fond, patient,
faithful little woman glanced with
pride and pleasure to the spot where
the little girl was playing with her sis
ter in the shade, just outside the win
dow. “I have spent more than $500 on
her, and although I never begrudged it
yet I did want to see my child improve
faster than she did. To-day she eats
more at one meal than I do in two.
When I commenced to give her the Pink
Pills she was afflicted with a skin disease
which was very annoying. Now that has
all gone, and I think the pills are res
ponsible for that Before I started on
the Pink Pills I wrote to a specialist in
Buffalo, and described her symptoms:
he said she had blood poisoning, due to
bad milk, and wanted me to bring her
there for treatment, although he said
that he did'nt believe she would ever
get over it. She had been given up by
four doctors, who were certain that
they could not cure her. Why, she
couldn’t open her mouth, and I actually
had to force the food into it. Her
mouth was all sores, and, oh dear,what
a looking child she was, and such a
care! Nobody but myself knows what
a trial we both have been through, for
she was too young to realize it. If my
statement will do anybody any good I
■hall be glad to have it published, and
those who read it will only come to
pie, if they are skeptical, I can convince
them in very little time that I know
what I am talking about. People
around here say it was a miracle, and I
believe it was.”
The neighbors bore witness to the
condition of the child previous to the
use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and
were enthusiastic in their praises of the
splendid work which had been accom
plished by them in this case.
Pink Pills contain in a condensed
form all the elements necessary to give
new life and richness to the blood and
restore shattered nerves. They are an
unfailing specific for such diseases as
locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St.
Vitus’ dance, sciatica, neuralgia,
rheumatism, nervous headache, the
after effects of la grippe, palpitation of
the heart, pale and sallow complexions,
all forms of weakness either in male or
female, and diseases resulting from
vitiated humors in the blood. Pink
Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be
sent post paid on receipt of price, (50
cents per box or 0 boxes for $2.50—they
are never sold in bulk or by the 100) by
addressing Dr. Williams' Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y., or Brockville, On
tario.

“ This is to give notice that no person

“ Notice: The church wardens will hold
their quarterly meetings once in six
weeks, instead of half yearly, as former

bill was stuck up: “ This house to be

a house would quite match the gown
