the second story of the hotel to the curb

by twenty feet In width. Architect Kim

Oldfleld Hold Out. 1 '
"If former Mayor Kelly has not started
for South Omaha from hla home in
Wyoming to attend the hearing ot the
mandamus proceedings in the bond caae
now pending, he need not come." This waa
the remark made by a prominent city offi
cial yesterday. About five or six weeka
ago C. Bevin Oldflald commenced mandamus
proceedings to compel the mayor and city
clerk to sign the issue of $140,000 " bonds
voted just before Mayor Kelly went wout of
office. The bonda were declared Bold to an)
eastern firm, Oldfleld aetlng as agent The
matter dragged along for months and Old
field finally put up a stiff talk to the city
officials and demanded that the bonds be
signed and delivered to him. Mayor
Koutsky held back and Oldfleld applied to
the courts for a mandamua. At the first
hearing it was deemed necessary to have
the testimnoy of Mayor Kelly and the court
allowed the city thirty days In .which to
produce the missing witness. Oldfleld Is
now out of the state and may possibly re
main for some time. Yesterday all of his
household goods were taken from his resi
dence at Twenty-fourth and D streets on
attachments filed by grocers, butchers and
others. The goods taken are now stored
and will be sold to satisfy the clalma of
merchants.
It waa reported last night that Oldfleld
j would not return from his resting place In
Iowa to press the suit against, the city
and the chancea are that this will be the
last heard of the case which haa attracted
so much attention.
Brlelc Work Completed.
The brick work on the Ancient Order of
United Workmen temple' will be put on
and then the windova and doors will be
placed. The building Is being piped for

court and the Judge gave him a few days
time to collect the money to pay the
fine. Instead of trying to make any set

HULL TALKS ARMY AFFAIRS
Cbairmin of the Honu Military Committee
Commends General EtafE
MAKES ARMY READY FOR QUICK ACTION
Cansjressssnn (Ineatlona the ftaeeesa of
tho Caastabalary System la tho
Philippines, bat Does Rot
Condemn It.
Hon. John A. Hull, member of congress
from the Des Moines (Ia.) district, waa en
tertained at lunch at the Omaha club yes
terday afternoon and departed for hla home
last evening. Congressman Hull la chair
man of the house committee on military
affairs. In reference to military legislation
by the last congress he said:
"The passage ot the army general staff
bill will result in great good to the army
in many waya. . In the first place, it will
do away with the Intricate system of
bureaucracy and will permit the co-ordina
tion of army interests. That Is, all branches
of the; service will become co-ordinate and
can be operated on an Intelligent plan. The
general staff will have Immediate and com
prehensive supervision of the several army
departments and should another war break
out everything would be In readiness for
the greatest expedition. I de think the
measure might have been somewhat Im
proved by providing for the permanent re
tention of officers In the general staff after
they have reached the rank of lieutenant
colonel. Aa It la, of course, officers may
be re-detailed to the general staff, and'thelr
special qualifications availed of aa often aa
the good of the service may require.
"I question the success of the constabu
lary system In the Philippines, though I am
not prepared to denounce It. I believe the
enlistment of trustworthy Filipinos Into
the military service, furnishing them with
the army uniform and utilizing them aa
scouts, would bring better results than the
constabulary system. The average Filipino,
once accustomed to the United States unl
form, becomea proud ot and loyal to it.
Faith In the Filipinos. .
"I have the utmost faith In the Filipinos
ultimately becoming good, loyal American
citizens. They are unquestionably the
brightest and most intelligent of the
Me lay races. They are imitative and are
very eager to avail themselves Of the Amer
ican achool aystem. They learn rapidly
and have very retentive memories. - The
American occupation of the Islands baa
been a blessing to them and they begin to
realize It. The civil government ia In ab
solute control, and loyalty to the American
government ia growing constantly. There
will be much of the ladronlsm for a long
time to come. There will be a few minor
insurrections, but these are mostly insti
gated by the ladronea, and what we woul&
call in this country bushwhackers.
"Tho hue and cry against the army In the
Philippines is gradually dyng out. We
hear but little of It now, tuough It may
break out again at the next congress. The
morale of the army Is improving, and the
American army la the beat military estab
liahment of the world. Congress Is loyal
to the army and haa alwaya been and al
waya will be. "
"Nebraska's great work' In sending an
almost solid republican congressional dele
gation to the next congress Is highly cred
itable and will give the atate much prestige
at Washington. Of course there Is no
doubt but that the Nebraska delegation' to
the republican national convention In 1904
will be instructed for Roosevelt. ' Your
state haa prospered greatly, I , fee, and
Omaha, too, la reaping the Kenefltrof the
current good times." .. . ' ' .-

ONLY PARTLY TRUE.
Poatalar Ideaa Retardlag Catarrh.
It la the common belief that what la
popularly known aa catarrh Is simply a
chrcnle cold In the head. This la trns as
far aa It goes, but aa a matter ot fact ca
tarrh la by no means confined to ths nssal
passage, but extenda wherever the mucous
membrsne extends, which meana nearly
every part of the body.
The mucous membrane la the Inside skin
of the body and is nearly aa extensive as
the outside skin, and any Inflammation of
thla membrane causing an extra secretion
ot fluid Is really catarrh.
Catarrh la, therefore, an old enemy dis
guised by many confusing names, for In
stance: Rhinitis is nasal catarrh; laryngitis
and pharyngitis, throat tatarrh; gastrltla.
stomach catarrh; cystitis and nephritis, ca
tarrh of the bladder and kidneys.
Therefore, although the location of the
trouble glvea It varioua names, In reality
the aum total la catarrh and nothing else.
Do not make the mistake of thinking you
have no catarrh because the head and nose
appear to be clear, if there la a cough,
tickling In the throat and hoarseness you
have throat catarrh. If there Is no appetite,
but, nausea, gagging and disgust for food,
especially in the .morning, you have catarrh
of the stomach.
The aureat treatment for every form of
catarrh ia an .external remedy which acta
especially on the blood and mucous mem
branes; such a remedy la the new prepara
tion Sold everywhere by druggists under the
name ot Stuart'a Catarrh Tableta, a medi
cine In pleaaant tablet form and containing
all the best and latest specifics for catarrh.
Stuart'a Catarrh Tableta contain In highly
concentrated form, bloodroot, red gum ot
the Eucalyptus tree, and many other
equally valuable curative elements, and no
one who suffers from any form of catarrh
and haa seen the Inefficiency of douches,
sprays and powdera will ever go back to
them after once trying so pleasant a prepa
ration aa Stuart'a Catarrh Tableta and one
which gives ao much relief In ao short a
time.
All drugglsta sell Stuart'a Catarrh Tab
leta at 60 cents for full aized package and
the regular dally use ot them will ef
fectually cure this troublesome and danger
ous dlaeaae.

Tidal Wave In October Greatly Inter

Northern Alaska.
SEATTLE, Wash., March 25. Further
particulars of the havoc and devastation
wrought by the tidal wave which swept
over Bristol bay In Oetober last and laBhed
Its fury on the Nusbgak, Kogglung and
Naknek river salmon canning properties
have been received here, having been aent
down by special dog train to Chlgnlk,
thence by mail steamer to Valdea.
The Indications are that the damage la
much greater than at first reported and
will probably have a aerloua effect on the
prospective pack of Alaska salmon In the
above districts for the season of 1903.
The advicea are to the effect that out
of a total of twenty-two canneriea which
operated last season on' Bristol bay, thir
teen have been damaged to such an extent
that it will be impossible to make repairs
In time to put up more than half the pack
at the very utmost, and It la further atated
that five large and Important planta have
been literally swept out of exlatence. as
the district covered pr the rivers on
Bristol bay la that from . which la de
rived a great portion 'bj the red salmon
nit' un In Alaska laat ' season's pack
amounting toover anmHUon cases and aa
the total pack of 1902 of red salmon, wnue
phenomenal, waai.lnaufflclent to meet the
retirements of the trade, the prlcea of

will. In all probability, be muat nigner
than at present. .

tune Mining company waa destroyed by
fire late laat night, entailing a loss to
the company of at leant $45,000.

and all were safely hoisted to the surface;
but not without the display of considerable
bravery and nerve on the part of the en

Should the fire get away the damage to
the property will be hard to eatlmate.

time he bad disposed of the greater part of
hla holdings In the Black Hills country,
but the trouble In Venexuela caused him to

Indication of "age" of the whiskey, which
Is so rssentlal to an article to be UMed for
medicinal purposes.

rigid and exhaustive of any similar exami
nations ever made In this Inboratory, nn1
the results obtained were of the tniMit flat
tering character. Indicating that the Duffy

article of exceptional merit and well de
serves Its name or "Medicinal Whiskey."
