How to Save Uoctor Bill.
We have saved many doctor bills
since we began using Chamberlein's
Cough Remedy in our home. We keep
a bottle open all the time, and when
ever any of my family or myself begin
to catch cold we begin to use the
Cough Remedy, and as a result we
never have to send for a doctor and in
cur a large doctor bill, for Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy never fails to
cure. It is certainly a medicine of
reat merit and worth. D. S. Mear-
kle, general merchant and farmer.

SETS FIEE TO CHURCHES.
Chicago Firebug Who Haa a Mind In
clined to Investigation.
Chicago, March 10. It Is now be
lieved that two of Chicago's historic
churches have been burned by an In
cendiary crank within a month. The
Second Presbyterian church, which
was destroyed Thursday night, and
the Trinity Methodist church, which
was ruined by flames a month ago.
are said to have been the objects of
this unknown person's peculiar mania.
Color was lent to this theory yester
day by discovery of the fact that after
the destruction of the Trinity church
Kev. W. E. McLennan, pastor of that :
congregation, received a message, writ
ten on a postal card, as follows: '"God
does not care any more for churches
than he "does for barns, or he would
not let them burn up."
Another significant point brought
out by those interest! is the fact that
both fires started in the organ loft,
and that no cause for the blazes could
be satisfactorily assigned. It is un
derstood this anonymous postal card
has been placed in the hands of the
postal authorities, who will endeavor
to trace it. at least to the locality in
which It was mailed. The loss by the
burning of the Second Presbyterian
church was about $200,000.
OPENING LONG-IDLE MINES.
Activity in Iron Properties a Feature of
the Situation at Republic.
Republic, Mich.. March 10. The
Riverside mine, idle seven years, has
been leased by the Oliver Mining com
pany and the work of pumping the
water from the shaft has begun. An
engine house has leen built, which
will be equipped with new machinery,
a blacksmith shop and dry house will
be erected besides a large number of
dwelling houses for miners. The mine
is located three and one-half miles
from Republic and at the time it was
shut down 200 workmen were em
ployed. Railroad tracks were torn up
but the old roadbed is being resur
veyed for new tracks.
The West Republic mine.mauy years
ago abandoned, and owned by the Le
Clair brothers of Ishpeniing, is being
worked. The Duluth, South Shore
and Atlantic Railroad company is to
extend tracks from the main line Into
the mine. The old Magnetic mine will
be developed by the Illinois Iron and
Steel company. The mine has .been
idle twenty-five years. The same
company will also operate the Bear
mine. Activity in other properties,
long in disuse, is promised.
Smallpox Near Joliet.
Joliet. Ills., March 10. A case of
smallpox lias been discovered in the
village of Lockport, four miles from
here. The victim Is John Riley, a ma
chinest, who it was supposed was suffer
ing from brasa poUoning. So far. as
known about fifty people have been ex
posed to the contagion. If other cases
break out a quarantine between Lock
port and Joliet will be established by
the local health department. The ef
fect of such an order would likely be
serious on the manufacturing Industry
of this city, as several hundred work
men in the steel and wire mills are res
idents of Lockport.
The Trouble In Kentucky. j
Frankfort. Ky., March 10. The sen

the Fight of Wednesday Ouerti Victoria I
Takes Another Drive. I
London, March 1. The Standard,
whbvh is in closer touch with the pol
icy of the government than any other
ministerial organ, says this morning:
"We Lave reason to believe that an
authoritative statement will shortly be
made by the government rca dinning
the iniMssibility of conceding any
terms of peace to the Boer republics
which would involve a perpetuation of
the politit'al and military independence
that led to the present costly and san
guinary conflict."
Loudon, March lo. The following
dispatch is bulletined here:
"Poplar Grove, Orange Free State,
March !l. General French, who is ten
miles ahead, reports that his front is
clear of the Boers. All other reports
tend to confirm the state of disorgani
zation of the Boer forces, Transvaal
as well as Free State. The general
impression is that the further prog
ress of the British to Bloeinfontein
will not be opposed. A great amount
of ammunition was destroyed today.
This included several boxes of explo
sive bullets on the outside of which
the Boers had marked, 'Manufactured
for the British government."
Rebels Anxious to Surrender.
The war office has issued the fol
lowing dispatch from Lord Roberts:
"Clements has occupied Nerval's Pout
and the adjacent drift. As soon as the
engineers, pontoon and troops arrive
he will cross the river, when the nec
essary repairs to the railway bridge
will be commenced. Gataere occupied
Burghersdorp March 7, and was greet
ed with great enthusiasm on the part
of the loyal inhabitants. His scouts
report that large numbers of the reb
els in the neighborhood are anxious to
surrender."
Itoer Would Necotiute for Fence.
London .March 10. The Dally Mail
publishes the following dispatch from
Pretoria, dated March 8. via Lourenzo
Marques, which had been censored by
the 15oer government: "Conversations
I have had with the highest state of
ficials show that the Boers want some
arrangement. They say that if F.ng
land is waging war of conquest they
land is waging a war of conquest they
believe that a plain statement of the
Boer intentions will reveal a basis of
negotiation, now that England's
prestige Is repaired. President Krngcr
and President Steyn conferred Monday
at Bloeinfontein on the incorporation
of the above representations in a ca
blegram to Lord Salisbury. The pres
ervation of the independenceof the two
republics is a sine qua non."
Salisbury Rejects the Proposal.
The cablegram mentioned in the fore
going reached London probably Thurs
day, and it is stated, offered nothing
more than was offered prior to the Boer
ultimatum. It is understood that Kru
ger's advances met with an emphatic
rejection at the hands of Lord Salis
bury, who is believed to have said that
no such atenipt to retain the independ
ence of the Transvaal can be consid
ered for a moment by the British gov
ernment.
Kr Hirer Was at the Front.
A telegram from Lord Roberts nt
Poplar Grove says that Krugcr and
Steyn were both present at the fight
of March 7 and did all in their power to
rally their troops. The rout, however,
was complete.
Hollawell, in a telegram to The
Daily Mail, describing his experiences
in Pretoria jail, says there are about
100 colonials there and they are scan
dalously treaed. He made an attempt
to see the American consul, but in
vain.
QIT.EX VICTORIA DRIVES AGAIN.
London West End Elaborately Decorated
in Honor of the Occasion.
Loudon, March 10. The queen, ac
companied by the Princess of Wales
and Princess Henry of Battenberg,
drove through the West End yesterday
afternoon. There were huge assem
blages everywhere along the route, and
the cheers were unceasing. The bells
of St. Margaret's pealed merrily and
the members of the house of commons
cheered vociferously as the queen
passed Westmiuster at 5:03 o'clock.
There was a great display of flags,
bunting and trophies along the route.
The balconies of many residences were
draped with red cloth and streams of
banners floated across the streets.
Numerous bauds of music paraded
the West End playing patriotic airs,
which thousands of people joined in
singing. The whole triumphal pro
cession was extremely stirring and
impressive. Her majesty was visibly
affected and she manifested extreme
gratification at the warmth of her re
ception. Queen Victoria's evident de
sire to sacrifice herself in Order to
please her people was manifested last
night by the announcement of her in
tention to review two thousand guards
men today. These troops comprise
Harrington Campbell's brigade and
Scott's Grenadier Guards, who are
proceeding to South Africa. The re
view will occur in the yard at Buck
ingham palace in the afternoon.
C5IVES PARLIAMENT A Kill.
Ameer K?nents a Hint That the Commons
Might Sunpcct Him.
London, March 10. In n statement
issued by the ameer of Afghanistan
declaring his fealty to the British em
pire and readiness to fight for that
empire anywhere and especially
ecainst Russia, the ameer refers to a
letter rrom tne Indian government re
minding him that he had been faith
ful for twenty years and advising re
trenchment in purchases of arms, as
Otherwise parliament nileht become
suspicious, and takes strong exception
to such suspicions, saying it was nec
essary to keep the country strong
enough to resist a Russian advance.
The ameer's letter concludes with
likening the British parliament to Ca
bul Turkish baths, "which reverber
ated with a babel of calls for towels,
soap, etc.. and loud-voiced conversa
tion, until the meaning of individual
words, and even the words themselves,
became lost in the confusion of
sounds, and only increased the general
uproar."
Dublin AVill Welcome the tue i.
Dublin, March 10. At a private
meeting yesterday of the Nationalist

with an address of welcome ou her

leave no room for doubt, as these are all unmistakable signs of Contagious Blood Poison.
Doctors still prescribe mercury ami potash as the oniy cure for Blood Toison. These poisonous min
erals never yet made a complete and neraianent cure of Contagious Blood Poison Thev drive the- .li.ic
back into the system, cover it up for a w hile, but it breaks out aain in worse form. These powerful minerals produce mercurial
rheumatism and the most offensive sores and ulcers, causing; the joints to stiffen and finger nails to drop off. Mercury and
poiasn. maso wrec'is, not cures, and those who have been dosed with these drugs are never after free from aches and pain.
S. S. S. acts in an entirely different manner, being a purely vegetable remedy : it forces the poison out of the system ami
instead of tearing down, builds up and invigorates the general health. S. S. S. is the only antidote for this specific vims' and
therefore the only cure for Contagious Blood Poison. No matter in what stage or how hopeless the case may appear even
though pronounced incurable by the doctors, S. S. S. can be relied upon to make a rapid, permanent cure. S. S. S. is' not a
new, untried remedy; an experience of nearly fifty years has proven it a sure and unfailing cure for this disease. It is the
enly purely vegetable blood medicine known.
