In the event of Mr. Jones not being present C. J. Schmidt is to act in stead.

Mr. Cihbs. of the Fair association , who has donoso much to aid the drummers' commit tees in their arrangements , was introduced < to the members present ut the meeting and was greeted with a storm of applause , Ho huid he could not make a speech , but could Jlx any of them out with passes to tlio fair grounds If they had not uliemly been pro vided. The matter of a drummer's night at Sebastopol topol was suggested , and a committee con sisting of Mr. Her , Harry Loder and ' 'IClt Karson wns appointed to arrange for the event by informing the management of the entertainment that they would bo glad to uttend in u body Friday night.

A ? the seats have to bo resprved us earlv as Wednesday morning it is desired that al' those who can attend that night will hand tr their names to the committee. The subject of sports at the fair grounds Wus suggested , but not llnally acted upon.

The arrangements nro now complete for next Thursday , and from all indications It will bo the rod letter day in the history of ( traveling men in this state. In order to make the day n grand success it only remains for the boys to bo prompt In assembling and In the forming of their procession and In their marching. The committees having the panulii in hand have left nothing undone to inako the day a tmocrss. It remain * now with the mon to meet iho expectations of the com mittee. No crowd of traveling men have ever fulled In doing anything , uuil they will not on this occasion. Tins HEKcnnonli wish for them a day of Bunnlilno to Insure tholr itnys pleasure and priuid demonstration , A. Strnnco Mouth , K. II. Uccd , n drummer for an Evansville , Ind. , house , fell ever the railing from ono of the upper floors of the Palmer house in Chicago cage u few evenings ago and was Instantly killed , Tim circumstances of his falling ivero very strange , and nro yet n mystery. The coroner's Jury Investigated the hotel and iimdo thq following discoveries : The room which the deceased had occupied opens upon a staircase about four foot In width which led from tlio sixth to ihoground lloor. About live feet from the door a rail ing surrounded an open space between the four sides of the spiral stairway. Through ' < tlu.i opening the deceased had fallen , some- 'M , ivlicro between the sixth and first lloor. This railing measured twonty.llvo Inches In height , nnd extended but u few Inches above a man's kncfs. Above n Hood of light was shyj through a ultylljjlit. Tlio Jury thought that n man might come out of the room , wheel around or stagger , ivhllo temporarily blinded by the glare , ami fall over the railing to death on the inurblo floor six stories below. The following vcr- tllct was rolhrned : "We , the Jury , find that the deceased met hlft death from shook nnd Injuries ro.eolved by falling ever a stair railing to the ground lloor In the Palmer house , August 85. and ivo , the Jury , recommend that the owner of the Palmer house place higher railing urouud said stairway. " M , UoUc ) , the father-in-law of Mr. Head , testified that the deceased was not a drinking - ing man , uud the clerks af the hotel said that hu was perfectly sober at the time ho placed his name upon the register. A Drnniiuor's Clonk Model. A sensation was caused In Chicago last Monday b.v the arrest of Joseph K. Attwood , n Hoston cloak drummer , and Mrs. I.aviniu K , Kdmunda , on a warrant sworn out by Noi I ) . Kdimimlv , the husband of the woman. Altivoml came to Chlengo and migagod room * nt tlio Palmer bouse. Ho inserted an advertisement in the local papers for ayounp woman lor a clonk model. Mrs. Udmtinds was among the grcut throng of women who applied for the jiosition , and as she f * young nnd hntidsohie was mig.iKi'd for the \yoik of poking to have cloaks draped on lien , Kdmunds , who Is nn Indhum dentist nnd is very Jeulous of his wifi , traced her to C'hii-.i'go and finally located her and hud hur und her employer anested. They were unable to give bonds and wore lacked up o\erniftht. They hud a hearing | n v ° llco court the next day nnd as tiny jirovcd lo tHti court , that their relations had been upright mid legitimate , they were dis charged. Mrs. Edmunds Is now | K > slng In the cloakroom ' room and her husband has returned to h'is home and work of extracting h6oaler teeth. Dcnlli In a Sgliixincr. A inlddld-agpd man went into it saloon in the city hull building tire other afternoon' , says tlio Cleveland Plain Dealer , and called fern plass of beerUnas given litin , and bi'foro drinking lie took a ( < niall paper fiom hjs lockctand emptied i < while pouder into the glass , after which be drank the beer. f-oon after this the panic nmn went Into 1'rcd Dii'biill's Hii'loon and icpeuUd the operation. Patrolman Meucjium wns told that the fel low contemplated suicide und he placed him under urrcht and took him to the ccntr.il police station. Jn the bottom of tlio beer glass froiih\\hlch the man had drank wns n thick sediment , und the paper around u powder whkb ho had put in the glass was labeled "poison. " At the cenlrul police station it was learned that the man's name Is .M. H. Husteln , u drummer for a Cincinnati clothing bouse. The poison tnkoH wns chloral. Dr. Ames wus biimmoncd , but snid Hustejn wus In no danger of dying. As a safeguard Patrolman Moculmm spent several hours walking1 the would-be Btilciuo about the Jail to prevent his falling asleep. Hustein admitted that ho wanted to die , and said ho wns tired of liv ing. Ho is H single man , nnd Is well known to many clothing men throughout the state. Ho came to Cleveland several days ago , and registered at the Ontario street house. A Jotter written by C5. P. Schweitzer , of Cin cinnati , and another written by A. Kolbe , of Philadelphia , were found in his possession. Whlskors After Doatli. The drummers bring In a good story oo caslonally , suys the Macon Telegraph. Alex ander Subers was in Griflln a few days ago , and while there went into u barber shop to bo shaved. The barber were a worried look , nnd when ho had Mr. Subers lathered h6 became - came loquacious. "IJoss. I see in the paper about a dead man's body being taken up and ho was clean hlmved when ho was buried , but when they took him tip he hud u full beard. Is there any truth in It ! " "Ohes , " replied the drummer , "I read the account myself. " "Clean shaved when ho died ! " "Clean as my baby. " "And when they took him up he had n full board on his focof" "Certainly. " "Must bo so ; that other gentleman what I shaved Just now said so , too ; but it woriies inn mightily. " "Why should It worr. " yotil" "Well , they tell me lie was a good man , and tlio only way I can make It out is that he wont to hcfivcn , and there ain't no harbors there. I'm going to get out of this business and go into something that I'll stand some ehunco of getting to heaven in. Next ! " Another Drummer1 Day. The drummers of the northwest have n special day at the Minneapolis exposition next Monday. They are already talking for a big day , such us wo have hero next Thurs day. Among the features of the day which will make some pleasure und uniuscment is the giving away of thn following presents : A prbe of Sit ) , given by S. U. Olson & Po. , to the oldest commercial traveler on the root the greatest number of years. Leather medal to commercial traveler with largest feet , his fellow travelers to make the award. W. II. Pcckham will give an Aurora Vapor stovn to commercial traveler with largest laiinly of children. Altman & Co. will give a hat to commercial traveler with largest head. John T. liarnum will give a line trav eling bag to the heuvi'-st ' commercial traveler having traveled continuously for three j ears. Says He Was Koblird. The Kensington police had in tholr care recently un individual who tells a remarka ble story. Ho states that his name Is Fred erick Sehomherg , and that he is ft traveling man hailing Irom Racine , Wis. , where ho is identllicd with a loading hat firm. Ho cites that while in Chicago the other night , he fell in with some strangers , who Induced him to drink until ho lost consciousness , When ho regained his senses ho found him self struggling in the waters of Lake Calu met , stripped sta'rk naked , and badly brulsad from the effects of a severe beating. He swam to the shore nnd notitled the Pullman people , who took him to Kensington. Ho claims to have been robbed of ? 4,4fH ) In cash , but can give no connected or plausible ac count of his night's adventure. The police investigated the story and concluded that the man is suffering Iiom delirium tremcns , A Chaimo hi Territory. F. II. Oroshell , who for the past two years has represented the Klchardson Drug com pany in northern and western Nebraska Wyoming and Dakota , baa bcjn transferred to the west with headquarters at Salt Lake , Ho represents the 11 rm from Salt Lake to the coast nnd through nil the territory lying to tlio north us fur as Vancouver. This territory was formerly covered b.v his brothe Oscar , who is now in tlio real estate business In bait Luke. Mr , Grosholl ranks niuong the most suHcussful knights of the grip am reports u line business in his line. His oh : patrons on bib former route will miss hi' ' genial simile. , but will bo plaasod to hour o his success in his new Held of labor. Axsoolal font , ' ( irowth. The different asiociutions of traveling men throughout the country seem to hav imbibed now life from soiuo source , says a i exchange. Their mcnibcrMhip is rapidly re crultlug from among the younger mon en gaged in business. This la very cncouruping. Old members who have saved a competence from their earnings nro constantly retiring from the road and many of these give up their connuutloii with M. T. organisations. Ago , disease and death steadily deplete tlio ranks , nnd if thuro were not an Infusion of new blood regularly into these mutual orgun- 1/atintm dissolution would follow us a uutur- nl consequence.

Wilmington Ko\vs : The monitor tun- phitrito , an iron hull 2i2 ( foot in length , 6i ( in breudth and 14 foot dco , the cen tral sections llllcd with engines and boilers , was tied ut the wharf at the Ilarlan & llollingsworth company witli big ropes and hawsers yostordtiy morn ing preparatory to thoollluial test of the machinery. The test was to begin at noon , but the blowing out of the pack ing of a steam joint caused a postpone ment nntil 8 o'clock. At that hour Pust Assistant Engineer William C. Eaton , of the United States navy , came aboard the ship nnd the test began. Tho'ongines were making sixty revo lutions u minute , and the big twin pro pellers were churning the water astern at a furious rtito. Tlio hawsers were stretched and. tlio vcel seemed lo bo throbbing with life and struggling to free herself from the wharf. In tlio chihs of vcsiols to which the Amphitrito belongs the motive powur and machinery is all below thu main deck , and the openings leading to the engine and boiler rooms are small. In this'cuso the engine- " and boHor occupy the two midship sections of the vessel" , the boilern being just , forward of the en gines and lyiii" agninni , the skin of the hull on either bidu , the llro room occu pying the spiico belwoon and thu doors of six furnaces on each side opening in to a bptico of hix or eight feet wide and about fifty foot long. In this space last night six or eight mon were feeding coal to the llrcs. The heat was intense and the perspiration was running oil the Ili'omun iiibtreams. The thermometer - otor roglstorod ir > o ° . The eiigini ) room in us crowded with levers , cranks and rods as is thu cab ot a locomotive , and the light furnished by Ilickering oil lumps and lanterns , duplicating the lines of the hngo ma chines , make it seem inoru unnyded. Everything was hot. The polished brass stair rails burned the htind and tlio hot deck burned the feet of visitors through their shoes. The engines , two in number , are of thu compound typo having cylinders thirty-two and forty' eight inches in diameter respectively They are sot one upon each side at an incline and work across the ship. The high and low procure cylinders on the pqrt drive the screw upon the star board hide , and the reverse with the other screws und cylinders. This ar rangement iniutuB all Iho piston and vulvo rods cross ouch other in passing from crank shaft to cylinder or steam chest anil is very compact but appar ently much complicated. About Invol with the point at which the rod a cross each other is the first cloulc of the engine room. The dock is of iron grating und extends around the cylinders parsing along the skin of the ship on either side. The flickering lights cuMing shadows on the moving machinery below thin dock und soon through tlio grating heightens the > m- pretjuion of complicated movements and improves the observer with the idea that the whole fabric is in motion. The test now in progress is to deter mine the Jilllng of tlio contract between the builderi. und the government , after which it la expected the ship will go to some o ( the nuvy yards for comple tion. The present structure is entirely metal , und in addition to the turret nnd nrmnmunts , tlio joiner work of the upM'tments for the otllcors und crow is is yet to bo furnished.

Talking nbout'tha milk euro , H has caused udeoldod. . boom iu the dairy 'trudo , nnd w-o can scntx-ely supplv our custom , as it was ill rowdy sulliciciitly large. Milk is the dfltnund of the hoiif , thi greatest call being among ths phy sicians , their families und ptttiont * . Oiiu prominent medical iniui always orders live gallons n day , two-llfths of which Is consumed hy himself. He does not take so much noiv , because he is un fortunately n victim of tlio cocaine habit. The deadly drug is slowly kill ing him , nnd ho Is gradually abandoning his practice , which'WIIHUII immense ono. Ono of his favorite methods of cure for his nervous patients is to order them to he quiet for several mnntliH und to take milk as tholr only nourishment , and in Inrco qutintittos. I know olio lady who wast considered a victim of cancer , who was un able to retain anything except milk for six months. Yet she event ually recovered. However , in cases of dyspepsia , milk ought to bo tabooed , and such people should confine them selves exclusively to buttermilk , which has already gone through a process of digestion before it enters the Htomnch. ituttcrmilk is a cure in itself for disor ders arising from indigestion. Hut the way Hwoot milk is used now in all drinks in tlio saloons nnd drug stores , In "milk shakes. " etc. , IH burprlsing. Ilowovor , its most unique demand is as an article ot the toilet , which use is constantly growing. Why , I have twelve regular orders , four of them on Lindoll avenue , from Indies , for eight gallons of milk daily. In this the mistress of the hotmo takes her evening bath. SJio considers this equal to the chnmpngno bath , so celebrated among Parisian ladles , only the milk baths are much loss expensive , Bkimmcd milk being considered sufll- ciont , and eight gallons amounting to only 80 cents a day. I suppose the idea is an offspring of the popular craze for modernizing the antique , and Poppruo , the beautiful wife of Nero , who daily bathed in milk for thu benefit of her complexion , is , perhaps , the example. These who take Dr. Jones' Red Clover Tonic never have dyspepsia , costiveness - ness , bad breath , piles , piniploH , ngiio and malaria , poor appetite , low spirits , headache or kidney troubles.
