liow be became n strong, hearty roan
" Abouttwo years ago I suffered
ral debility and I doubt If there wni
utterly tnlacrnblo than 1 was. I had no life or energy, and was as depressed
mentally as I was worn out physically. llwas not nt nil unusual for me to
go to sleep over my work. My blood was thin and watery, but tho worst of
it nil was the dreadful, wearying nervousness at nlcht. When I retired at
ten o'clock, Instead of (joins to sleep I would to and turn till well on into
the morning, nnd when I awoke It was without any feeling of being refreshed
or rested. I lost so much lleali that 1 got down to 122 pounds in weight, and
I bad no desire for food.
"Last January n friend urged me to try I)r Williams' rink Tills for Pale
People. I had previously tried many different kinds of remedies aud had
consulted three physician, hut tho little relief they gavo was very brief, so
I was completely discouraged. .My friends, however, luslsted and I tried the
medicine.
" Ily the time tho second oox was begun there was such evident Improve
ment that 1 continued taking them till the nl '.b bos, when 1 felt thai I was
entirely cured. I now weigh 16!) pounds. There Is no sign of nervousness, 1
rest well and feel strong, and am ablo to enjoy life unco more, Mrs. Hcott

the history of' this town occurred lit 1:30
this morning, drstioylng un entire block
of tho principal business buildings. S. U.
Uwlng, owner of tho (Irand Pucltlc hotel,
was prcpnrlng to retire when ho dUcovcrod
lire In tho Interior of Osgood's restaurant
on the south sldo of Klmbull street, lie
Immediately gnve the alarm, but the lire
hud gained audi headway It was Impos
nlble to check It. The town, being with
out any means of flru protection, had not
water enough to supply a small bucket
brigade. The Humes soon hurst through
tho sides of tho building nnd Ignited the
Palace drug store 011 thu west and (ireer's
Jewelry store on tho cast nnd It was seen
that the entire block of wooden buildings
wns doomed. The effort of the citizens
were spent In taking goods out of the stores
nnd In wetting down the roofs aud fronts
of tho buildings on the opposite sldo of
the street. The iiir was very calm, yet
the flumes spreud on each side with great
rapidity, consuming the Hank of Callaway
and Hopkins' grocery Btore on tho west end
of the block nnd In Riicccsslou on the cast
rml, Moron's department store, with Its
entire stock of goods, Shupp'H meat mar
ket, Moll's millinery store and tho Hrlt
tau hotel, which stood on tho corner.
The hotel, tho Ilauk of Callaway nnd
Shupp'B buildings wcrd without Insurance,
hut the goods anil fixtures wcro all removed
before tho fire reached them. Tho IJank
of Callaway contained a Inrgn fireproof
vault, which was used as a safe doposlt
by most of tho business men and which
stands Intact. Moran's double building and
stock were Insured for Jll.tOO, nnd tho
Palace drug storo building for $1,000, but
there waa 110 Insurance on tho stock. Tho
restaurant where the flro started hud $200
Insurance on the building and $400 on tho
stock, and the Hopkins' building was In
sured for $250, stock nil saved. Tho loss
on tho buildings burned Is estimated at
$8,000, insured for $2,500. Tho value of
goods consumed Is estimated at about $20,
000, with about $15,000 Insurance. Tho
flro Is supposed to havo originated In a
defcctlvo chimney of tho restaurant.

CHICAGO. March 15. The Tlmes-Herald
tomorrow will say: Events of the past few
weeks have made It certain that the Mis
sour Pnclllc Is shortly to bcunado tho great
est system of tho southwest. With the
Missouri Pacific as the nucleus, a system
will be built up and placed under 0110 man
agement, extending from Buffalo lo New
Orleans, El Paso and Salt Lake City. Such
Is the plan which Is being worked out by
tho Gould family, and It Is equal to the
boldest scheme projected by tho lato Jay
Gould.
Tho latest evidence In (his respect Is the
announcement that tho Goulds havo ac
quired control of the Denver & Rio Grande
and will soon have the Rio Grande Western.
It Is also understood that tho Missouri Pa
cltlc now has control of tho Missouri, Kan
sas & Texas, which extends from St. Iritis,
via Parsons nnd Dallas, to Galveston, nnd
that the 'Frisco, extending from St. Louis
south to Purls and southwest to Oklahoma,
will soon be acquired by the Goulds.
Ily these purchases tho Missouri Pacific
will not only extend Its western limit to
Ogden, hut will occupy tho mountain pass.-s
to an extent that will make It difficult lor
other roads lo secure Ingress on a profit
able footing. The Missouri Paclfte Is In
close relntlons with tho Union Pacific nnl
other properties under syndicate control,
and will therefore be In n position to work
harmoniously west from Salt Lake City nnd
El Pnso. Mr. Gould's present western trip
and Inspection of railroad properties hi .mid
to be tho concluding preparation for tho tnl
flcatlon of this great southwestern sjstcm.
This combination would make a system con
sisting of 15, Sir, miles.

years ago.
It leaked out yesterday that eight em

comotive Engineers had been found In tho
servlco of the Burlington company. They
wcro nsked to explain. They admitted
being members of the organization, It la
said.
The olllclals, It Is reported, commanded
the men cither to renounce allegiance to
the organization -or to Icavo tho company's
service. Six of the engineers, It Is said,
agreed to cancel their membership In the
brotherhood, but the other two left the

tho Chicago & Northwestern. The nnme of

These roads, It Is said, havo given notlco
also that they will not pay any portion of

The failure of these district pools or com
