(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DE8 MOINES, Jan. 18. (Special.) At
6:60 o'clock this morning at the town ot
Victor, which li on the line between 1'owe
hlok and Iowa countlei, about sixty mllos
east, occurred one of tho strangest railroad
accidents ever known In Iowa. It was
the explosion of tho boiler of ono of the
Rock Island's big locomotives while the
train was at full speed, tho killing of tho
engineer and fireman, overturning all but
one of tho coaches of the Denver limited
train, hut with no fatalities among tho
passengers.
Tho accident was caused by the explosion
of the boiler of engine No. 1413, v;hlch ws
pulling tho train westward nt a terlftlo
rat of speed, but which had been brought
Into check for a fov seconds while the
train was passing through the town of
Victor. Tho explosion nwoko the slumber
ln vlllnco and farmers for miles around.
Immediately hundreds of people niched .o'j
the scene of tho accident and discovered
that Engineer W. Williams and his flremnn.
Wilbur Honro, had been Instantly killed,
their bodies being horribly mangled, almost
beyond recognition. It wns at first feared
thai many In tho train hod been badly
Injured, as seven of the eight cars had
been hurled from the track and over on
their sides.

Train No. B docs not stop at Victor ex
cept to unload paucngera from ChlcagoS
or going east to tako on passengers for
points at which tho limited stops east of
the Mississippi river. This morning thero
was no ono to leave the train at .the sta
tion. Tho tialn was on time, nnd wan mak
ing a speed of forty miles an hour until
the station was In sight, when a slackening
of speed was made, according to the rules
of tho company, for passing through. Thrco
hundred feet cast of the station begins a
slight down grado, which extends almost
a. mile to Carnforth, whero tho Hock Island
crosses near creek, and then tho North
western branch running north to nolle
Plalno and ttouth to Muchtcanock. Engi
neers have a habit of spurting down this
grado for at least three-quarters of a mile,
and the supposition Is that Wllllnms In
tended to let bin big mogul tako a few
fast steps between Victor and Carnforth.
Ho hod JurI started on the grade when
the explosion which killed both himself
and bit fireman and demolished tho cnglno
occurred.

Neither englneor nor flremnn lived long
enough to toll to those who wero first on
the scene how the accident occurred. Tho
mangled remains found near the baggage
car, which was derailed, was evidence
enough that both men wero attending to
their dullea at the engine, oblivious that
there was any causo for danger. Whether
the explosion was tho result of negllgenco
on the part of the trusted employes may
never be known, as tho force ot tho ex-

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a discov
ery ot treat value to tho medical profera
Ion and tho public. They are an unfail
ing specific In all cases of dyspepsia and
dUorderod digestion.
Almost everybody'! digestion Is disor
dered more or less, and tho commonest thing
they do for It Is to tuko some ono ot the
many so-called blood purifiers, which In
many caaea aro merely strong cathartics,
8uch things are not needed. It the or
gan are In a clogged condition, they need
only a little help and they will right them
selves. Cathartic Irritate the sensitive
linings of the stomach and bowels and
often do more harm than good.
Purging la not what Is needed. Tho
'thing to do Is to put the food In condition
to be readily digested and asstmllatod.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do this per
fectly. They partly digest what la eaten
and give tho stomach Just the help tt
needs. They stimulate tho Becretlon and
excretion of the digestive fluids and relievo
the congested condition of tho glands and
membranes. They put tho wholo dlgostlvo
system In condition to do Ub work. When
that ia done you need take no more tablets,
unless you eat what does not ogreo with
you. Then take one or two tablota gtvu
them needed help and you will have no
trouble.
Its a common sense medlclno and a com
mon some treatment and it will' euro ex
rv time. Not only cure tho disease but
cure the cause, floes about tt in a perfect
ly sensible and scientific way.
We have testimonials enough to fill a
book, but we don't publish many ot them.
However
Mrs. E. M. Faith of Uyrd'a Creek, Wis.,
says; "I have taken nil tho tableta I got
of you and they have done their work well
In my case, for I feel like a different per
son altogether. I don't doubt if I bad
not got them I should have been at rest
by this time."
H. E. Wlllard, Onslow, la., says', "Mr.
Whlto of Canton, was telling me of your
Dyspepsia Tablets curing him of dyspopsla
from which ho nad suffered for eight years.
Aa I am n sufferer myself I wish you to
end me a package by return mall."
Phil Brooks, Detroit, Mich, says: "Your
dyspepsia euro has worked wonder in my
case. I suffered for years from dyspepsia
but am now entirely cured and enjoy life
s I never havo before. I gladly recom
mend them."
It will cost 60c to And out Just how much
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will help you.

ploilon so shattered every part of tho en
glno thai It Is Impossible to tell any
thing rtbout tho mechanism. The main
section of tho boiler was hurled into tho
air and forward of tba train for a dis
tance of 200 foot along the right of way and
Imbedded in the frozen ground along the
track. Other parts of the machinery and
pieces ot the tender were found scattered
along tho main track and the siding for an
eighth of a mile. One thing peculiar In
connection with tho explosion, which must
have been terrific, Is that the cowcatcher
did not leave tho track, but Is still standing
at tho head ot tho train.
fcpvcn Cnr l.rnvf tlie Trnck.
Every car In tho train, nnd there were
eight of them, left tho track Immediately
the englno exploded, except the last car,
a vestlbulcd sleeper. Tho train Is vestl
bulcd fr6m end to ond and is the pride of
tho Hock Island rolling stock. Tho wildest
confusion rclgncd on the train when the
cars Jumped from the. heavy steel rails and
tho bump, bump, bump and rattle bang,
bang aroused tho sleeping passengers. Oc
cupants of sleeping car bertha were hurled
violently from their beds Into the aisles
ot tho car or across Into tho opposite
berths. Men and women rushed frantically
back and forth In their night clothing try
ing to And whether anyono was hurt and
rubbing their arms and limbs and noses
to see whether thoy wore hurt thcmselvos,
A hundred or more men from Victor who
had rushed down to tho scene of tho acci
dent to render any assistance possible
found that no one needed help. Two or
threo women were found wrapping hand
kerchiefs about their' heads, but the wounds
wore trivial. There was not a passenger
on the train In any way seriously injured.
Train No. 5, wrecked at Victor this morn

through to Omaha.

yesterday, up to last night none of tho dif

who was seen stated that the proposed
franchise was news to him, and that he
knew absolutely nothtng of It, other than
what had appeared in tho papers. Several
of the councllmen seem inclined to discredit

It Is said that an ordinance Is now being
prepared providing for tho appointment of
street sweepers who will be supposed to
keep the streets clean. The fire depart
ment officials say that It Is almost useless
to flush tho streets and shortly after the
department had done the work on both N
and Twenty-fourth streets Chief Lou Etter
made the suggestion that street sweepers
were the only solution ot the difficulty.
Tho ordlnanco Is said to provide tor the
general duties of the sweepers, who will bo
supposed to look after tho mud and stush
which follows rain and snow, as well as
the picking up and destruction of papers
and debris In general.

Dyspepsia Cure
Stsrratlon seems a strange remedy for any
disease. Yet starvation by rigorous diet
was onco generally resorted to In cases of
Indigestion or other stomach trouble Even
yet it is sometimes tried. Such a
remedy is worso than useless. Every
lay of life consumes aportion of the tissues
of the human body. The food wo eat Berve
to repair this waste and you can't build up
the system by withholding material for the
purpose. If the stomach Is in such condi
tion that it cannot furnish it the tnttk must
be performed without the stomach's assist
ance Kotlol Dyspepsia Curo is the only
preparation which accomplishes this. Thure
are others which act on certain kinds of
food, but Kodol Dyspepsia Cure Is tho only
one which digests them all as the stomach
digests them. Man is so constituted that
he needs a variety of food and to reduce this
at!ety always produces bad results.
In nlnety-nlno cases In a hundred indiges
tion is due to lack of so mo of tho elements
which constltuto tho natural digestive
Juices, usually to the absenco of hydrochlo
ric acid from tho stomach. It is by tho ac
tion of theso Juices that food Is reduced to
a form In which It can be transformed into
living tissue. With any of them lacking it
is easy to sco that the process of digestion
cannot bo perfectly performed.
"With the singlo exception of Kotlol Dys
pepsia Curo all preparations for the relief of
indigestion lack certain of these elements.
Consequently they cannot digest all clases
of food. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure contains
them all. It will digest, anything that the
healthy stomach can digest. It is nature's
own cure.
Don't, resort to stimulating tonics. Such
times simply urgo tlin already overworked
stomach to renewed exertions. It is like
spurring a tired horse. For a moment h
responds. Then outraged nature roasserts
itself and he falls In a heap. Sedatives are
equally Ineffective. At, first they deaden
pain hut afterward comes the reaction and
keener suffering than before.
What the stomach needs Is rest. To ob
tain it a substitute must be found for tho
natural digestive Juices. Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure is tho only wttbstltute which accom
plishes nature's results by nature's own
methods. It gives th stomach perfect rest
oy dlgcstlngwhat you cat. No dieting Is
necessary. Eat all the good food you want,
build up the system and at the samo tlmo
relievo the stomach from all responsibility.
The rest will restore It to Its natural condi
tion and soon effect a completo cure. This
is the only rational nnd common sense
r.'.cthod of aiding nature.
No dieting is necessary.
