CATARRH soon destroys the elasticity of the mucous membrane, produc ing a flabby condition. This leads to watery secretions, sometimes thickened mucus, ,and constitutes altogether a very disagreeable condition. It makes no difference whetier the catarrh Is confined to the nose, head or throat, or whether It Is located In the lungs, stomach or bowels. The essential condition Is the samo. Anything that tones up the system tends to the relief of the catarrh. Anything that purifies the aystem helps to clear away the poisonous secretions from the body. Peruna, haa a world-wide reputation as a catarrh remedy. We hav many testimonials from sll parts of the country and from all walks of Mfe. attesting to the benefit of Peruna in catarrhal diseases.

A large party of officials of the Union Paclnc and Pennsylvania railroads visited the South Omaha packing district yesterday morntng on a general tour of observation. It Is said by the packing house officials that the visit was purely for personal cbservs - tlon and bore no weight In local or flnan- clal affairs. The party was splendidly en- tertalned by Swift and Company, and the members expressed themselves warmly grateful and well pleased with the clean appearance and thrifty conditions of the , plant.

He expressed himself as quite well satisfied to be now In preparation for opening business rather than to have been In a newly opened busi ness.

MEN TO TRY TONY DONAHUE Central Laker fnloa ,Haa m Lively Seseloa Over the Matter. The charges against A. J. Donahue of the Central Labor union, which were filed by A. F. Hanson before the meeting of the Central Labor union Friday night In the Labor temple, will be Investigated by the following committee of five: John Pollan, Hans G. Ellis, R. J. Wangburg. o. J. Cross snd C. F. Mlchselson, which names were drawn from s ballot box containing the names of all the delegates present. The chars-es accuse Donahue of conduct unbe coming a member of the Central Labor union," In declaiming In open meeting that Hanson was the author of a letter written The Bee prior to tho last republican pri maries, containing the statement that Don ahue was a professional labor union man, which Hanson denied, hence the charges. The trial committee will report at the next meeting of the central body, November 29. Previous to the selection of the committee, the meeting was addressed by William Strauss, business agent of the Clgarmakers' union of the district of New York, who ts visiting all the large cities of the country in the Interests of the Clgarmakers' union. Strauss made a strong plea, calling upon the union men to demand union-made cigars and other articles. In explanation of his request, he told of the prevailing unfavor able conditions existing In the factories of the Tobacco- trust, where child and woman labor la employed. He also told of the large sums spent by his union In combating the tobacco corporation and the agitation of the child labor question. After considerable discussion among the members of the central body, the sheet metal workers finally succeeded In present ing It with thirty-three shares of the Labor Temple association stock, which is to be distributed pro rata among the other mem bers of the Central Labor union. A communication from the local Teleg raphers' union showed that the donations received by that bdy from other labor unions for the week ending November 7 was 178.50. A committee was appointed to arrango for a series of pictures to be given In a local electric theater to show the existing conditions In the sweat shops of the east. The press committee of the Central Labor union was authorised to deny the allegation made in a recently published letter, that there were two factions In the body. - Yoa Can It , TV ant To.

MUSIC NOT 0JVLY ATTRACTION Dncheea of Marlbomnarh Attends Opera with Mr. nnd Mrs. Clarence Marker. When the curtain arose at the Manhat tan Opera house last Monday night, there was not an empty seat and but few unoo cupled boxes. These were soon filled by the late comers.- Unheralded the duchess of Marlborough arrived after the first act, with Mr. and Mrs. Clarence H. Mackay. The occupants of the -nearby boxes soon became aware of her presence, snd many opera glasses were levelled In her direction. The duchess wore a princess gown of black velvet spangled with Jet. and made a bit suggestive of empire style. The up per rart of the bodice was of ecru lacs, and three broad bands composed of Inter lacing clreles of diamonds fsstened the empire skirt snd waist together, passing over the shoulders like bretelles. There were no tiaras. The duchess' only hair ornament was a low comb of diamonds at the back of her head. Mrs. Mackay'a gown was of mandarin bluo silk, covered with old Italian filet lace. The bodice hod a band of silver lace across the front of the decondetage, and the short elbow sleeves, loose, like those of the duchess, were also made of silver lace. Mrs. Mackay wore an enor mous bodice ornament of diamonds above her belt, aet with a big "cabuchon" sapphire In the center. Around her neck was a long chain studded with dia monds. Mrs. Mackay also wore a low diamond oorab. PIMPLES, BLACKHEADS- Get Rid of AU Your Fare Troubles in a Few liars' Time With the 'Wonderful Stuart ptlcium Wafers. Trial Fackags Btnt Tree.

"An indestructible three-story cement dwelling can be built In twelve hours at a cost of $1,000," was the most Important of several statements made by Thomaa A. Edison in his laboratory at Orange, N. J., In the presence of a delegation of 300 mem hers of the Electro-Chemical society, which held Its annual convention in that city last week. Mr. Edison was unusually talkative and affable. Taking some of the delegation to the second story of the laboratory, he showed them the model of a Queen Anne cot t ace and said: "Next spring I intend to build a house by this model. By means of a system of pat ent moulds, It Is possible for any contractor to build a house of solid cement, twenty five feet wide and forty-five feet deep, three stories high and capable of comfort ably housing three families, for SLCW. Three families in a house built on this model will give each family lots of room. Moulds for the New House. "The most Important feature of the pat ent lies In the moulds, which are of Iron, but the material for the house Is to be composed almost wholly of a new compo sition of mine, consisting of one part of cement, three parts of sand and Ave parts of quarter-inch crushed stone. Ths only part of the house not built of cement will be a strip of wood around the ends of the floors on which to tack down carpet. "A house like this will abolish Insurance forever. "By pouring the cement into the moulds, beginning, of course, at the top, until the whole mixture overflows the edifice, It will be possible to b'ulld the house In twelve hours, and In six days more it wilt- have settled and hardened so as to be absolutely Indestructible. "I have built the model of this house on the basis of a laborer-owner getting 31.(0 per day. The moulding rrms are of cast Iron, and for 11.0(4 the entire house can le built. This to Include heating pipes, stair cases of cement, Poors and mantels of ce ment, and a cement roof that won't leak. Plumbing and even bath tubs will be of cement. "The durability of the house Is unques tionable. It will last forever. Even ch'l dren rray go around with axes and chop as long as they like without doing any ma terial harm. "Therefore there will be no recessl(y for repairs. Even the window sashes will be of cement. Aside from the narrow strip of wood Intended for the holding of carpt tarks the only wooden thing about the house Is the front stoop. I have given It a wocden stoop to make It more bemtlful I have been In consultation with New York architects on the subject of the wooden stoop and I think It possible to omit that material In the stoop construction. It will cost a contractor 3JO.0OO to get the moulds with which to build the house, but then he will be able to bu'ld over 30,000 houses with the one set of moulds. "The moulds can te tsken down In s few hours sftei- the house has been fln'shed and they may be carted to any part of the world In less space than Is rer-ulred for shipping an ordinary derrick. That's what will appeal strongly to commercial econ omy. In selling contractors the Iron cast ings I shall restrict them In the use of cerrent that will have no ilr bulbs. The cement will be poured Into the moulds until It flows over at the top. Then the house Is practically finished. I won't sell tho moulds to any who do not satisfy me of the quality of their concrete formula. In thp great San Francisco disaster the houses which withstood the earthquakes were built of cement." Mr. Edison was ssked how he was pro gressing with his storage battery for driv ing trucks.

Then smilingly he said: Storsnge Battery for Traeke. "I don't mind telling you that I have at last succeeded In getting ths storage bat tery proposition to a condition In which It Is 'of economlo value. I am turning out 300 storage bstterles a Week for trucks. This after a three years' test. I realised that If I made a battery capable of doing only 12.W0 miles when a new plate became necessary It would do no more than the horse waa able to do. I decided that If the battery was able to accomplish B0,0 miles without a new plate tho horse was dead. The horse Is dead. Next December I expect to begin supplying storage bat teries to trucks, and then It will be cheap enough for even a Tenth avenue butcher td purchase it "I have succeeded In perfecting a BO.OOO mlle battery. It will be able to take twice the load of the ordinary truck, will have twice the speed and take up half the space. In a word It will be right times as useful aa the horse and wagon. In December, when we will begin to deliver these bat teries, the horse of Manhattan will dis appear forever." Mr. Edison wss shown wi.Atu.. .- . . . sage from W. W. Bradfleld of the Marconi J w..,..,, wring ii i me new across-tne-ocean wireless system waa working at the rate of twelve words a minute. Mr. Edi son's comment on this wss: Thousand Words a Mlnnte. "Give Marconi ten years and he will be sending 1,000 words a minute by wireless. He won't need any duplex system to do It either. Marconi Is ths msn. At present he cant make It as great from an economic standpoint as is the submarine cable be cause there Is sn absorption of electric waves In cable that we don't get In the air. There la no reason why the wireless can't do as well as the telegraph. Once I senl 8,000 words a minute between New Yorh and Philadelphia by means ot a sending machine, and I can do it now. It Is true that this record was cut down to 1,000 words from Washington to New York and forty words a minute from Charleston to New York, nt then either is instantan eous, and Marconi la a star."
