Dr. Miles9 Heart Cure Curs a Prominent Attorney.

raw MR.R.C. PHELPS, the leading pension attorney of Belfast, N. Y., -writes: "I was discharged from the army on account of 111 health, and suffered from heart trouble ever since. I frequently had fainting and smothering spells. My form was bene as a man of tf). I constantly wore an overcoat, even in summer, for fear of taking cold. I could not attend to my business. My rest was broken by severe pains about the heart and left shoulder. Three years apo I commenced using Dr. Miles Heart Cure, notwithstanding I had used so much patent medicine and taken drugs from doctors for years without being helped. Dr. Miles' Heart Cure restored me to health. It Is truly a wonderful medicine and It affords me much pleasure to recommend this rem edy to everyone."

"Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad." They must be after the scalp of the News, as that little paper seems to be very angry. It is said that Charley Landis has gone to Porto Rico in order to escape being mixed up in the senatorial fight. Landis wants to be a candidate for governor. The South Bend Times thinks there are too many persons given to fault-finding. The fellow who is not finding fault with something is the possessor of a soft snap which other people have a perfect right to find fault with. The Toroto World thinks Cana da is closer to "absorption" by the United States than it ever was. That paper thinks the spirit of expansion will grow so rapidly that the annexation of Canada will come much sooner than Canadians realize. Patti, the great songstress, is to take a third husband, a likely young man who was not born at the time she was wedded to her first. He is a Swede. Her other spouses were lespectively French and Italian: Patti's love as well as her popularity is not confined to any one nationality. Fort Wayne bankers are considering the advisability of making a general reduction in the rate of interest on accommodation paper. The rate now charged by the banks of that city is 7 percent, a reduction of one percent having been made some time ago. The concensus of opinion is that 6 percent is all that merchants and manufacturers can afford to pay for money needed in carrying on their business. A statistician has discovered that in 1905 John D. Rockefeller will be a billionaire. He has also discovered that he will be the only billionaire, for no other man's fortune approxi mates his. At the present the in come of his money $20,000,000, an nually, is drawing a compound inter est, and is increasing upon itself so fast that it gets greater at a sur prising rate. According to the new est figures his income is 64c per sec ond, $48.40 per minute, $2,316.48 per hour, $55,555-55 Per day includ-

ing Sunday and $1,666,666.66 per

month. A few days' salary would satisfy anyone but a miser. AGAINST IMPERIAL. POLICY. "It becomes my duty now to ad dress your body with regard to the grave crisis that has arisen in the relations of the United States to Spain by reason of the warfare that for more than three years has raged in the neighboring island of Cuba. I do so because of the intimate con nection of the Cuban question with the state of our own Union and the grave relation the course which it is now incumbent upon the nation to adopt must needs bear to the traditional policy of our governments, if it is to be in accord with the precepts laid down by the founders of the republic and religiously observed by succeeding administrations to the present day." "The temper and forbearance of our people haye been so severely tried as to beget a perilous unrest among our own citizens, which has inevitably found rxpression from time to time in the national legislature, so that issues external to our own body politic engross attention and stand in the way of that close devotion to domestic advancement that becomes a self-contained commonwealth whose primal maxim has been the avoidance of all foreign entanglements. All this must needs awaken and has indeed aroused the utmost concern on the part of this government, as well during my predecessor's term as my own." President McKinley, in his message, April 1 1, 1S9S. The first real opposition to Senator Burrows' election to succeed himself comes from his homt- town, Kalamazoo. Col. E. M. Irish of that city has entered the senatorial race and he will draw away several of the Bunows supporters. Col. Irish is now with the 35th Michigan in the south. He is a lawyer of fine ability and a man of good judgment. Two years ago he fought in the Grand Rapids convention against the nomination of Pingree, but now the colonel and the governor know each better and are fast friends. It is now quite certain more than one ballot will be neccessary to elect a United States senator in Michigan. "The Philippines can never maintain free institutions and our control over them opens the door for many dangers. Democracy does not guarantee good government, but only growth in intelligence of the governed. We can have no effective machinery for outside paternalism. Our management of Alaska is a disgrace and a scandal. Only a firm hand, great expenditures and an incomparable patriotism could make the Philippines under our hands other than a huge political plague spot." President David Starr Jordan, of Stanford University, from interview in the New York World. It appears as though Frank E. Littleton of Indianapolis will be elected speaker of the state legislature. Mr. Littleton was a classmate of the publisher of this paper for five years at Depauw university, and during that time was one of the en thusiastic democrats of the university. The worst thing that can be said of him is that he changed his politics immediately after his gradu ation. As a republican politician he has been a success, however. The legislature could not select a better parliamentarian. Since the death of Ranold T. Mc Donald, of Fort Wayne, a search has been made for the insurance policies held by the deceased and so far as found the insurance amounts to $ 1 36,000. It is believed that several additional policies will yet be turned up. Of the aggregate sum, 5,000 goes to his mother, 73,000 to Mrs. McDonald and daughter, Esther, and $58,000 to the estate. Hick' January Weather. The 1st and 2nd are reactionary storm days and cloudiners with rain and probable thunder in the south, turning to snow in most sections north ward may reaßonably be expected. A prompt and sharp rise of barometer and rush of cold from the northwest should be anticipated in the rear of all these midwinter storms. A regular yulcan storm period covers the 4th to

8th, central on the ßth. The first of these periods as a rule brings bright days and change to falling barometer and warmer in western extremes By the time those conditions end in rain and snow storms west, warmer with falling barometer will reach central and eastern sections; and by the time the areas of rain and snow reach eastern sections, chanpre to cold wave and blizzardous conditions are prevailing westward. Later the cold and high west winds reach the eastern parts Storms are predicted for the middle of the month.

Senatorial Vote. It is almost impossible to secure accurate information of the present stand ing of th? candidates for the U. S. senator6hip, but disinterested men, who have matfe estimates, issued on information that has come to them independently of the candidats or managers of the candidates, say that the fact is that thy pledged strength at this time 19 about as follows: J. Frank Hanly 21 Albert J. Heveridge 15 Robert S. Taylor 14 (leorge W. Steele 11 Frank B Posey 12 Total 73 Still unpledged 16 A dispatch from Indianapolis says al! the candidates except Wm, Taylor are there. Flans for breaking the present deadlock were proposed but so far as known no alliances were formed. It is now clear to the politicians that before any one can approach the nomination some of the candidates will have to be crowded out of the race. One of the suggestions of the day was that Frank B. Posey might with draw in favor of J. Frank Manly and in return receive the nomination for governor in 1900 but it was not entertained. W. W. Lambert state senator from Columbus, who had been classed as a Taylor man, came in during the day and announced that he would support Albert J. Beveridge. The "field" has turned on Hanly and the politicians believe he has reached toe limit of his support. Obituary. Nancy Dial (Allison) was born in Heaver county, Pennsylvania, April 2, 1832, came with her parents to Holmes county, Ohio, wheD a girl and spent, her vouth there. She then met and mar ried lohn Dial, Dec. 5, 18Ö3. To them were born three children L. E. Dial, of this placa; Mrs. J. C. Martin, of Oxford; and one dying in infancy. They moved to Plymouth about the year 1865. She lived here until the death of her husband, Nov. 13, 1895. Sine? then she made her home with her daughter. She joined the church when about 17, and lived till death a consistent christian life. She had been having broncnial trouble for a few weeks, but had apparently recovered and was seeming ly in her usual health when she was suddenly 6tricken down. At It Agni 11. Sunday night some one robbed a re lrigerator belonging to Mrs. Gilson Cleveland. A quantity of sausage and other edibles, amounting in terms of casn several dollars was taken out. This morning Mrs. Cleveland found a large cake on the ground In her yard and thought at first that it was a pres ent sent in bv the neighbors. The dis covery of the empty refrigerator, however, soon led her to the right supposition that it had been left by the thieves. Several weeks ago the accessible refrigerators and cellars in every part of Plymouth were ransacked. Some one seems to be at it again. Tli Masquerade Dance, The masquerade ball given Thursday night by the Plymouth Dancing club was attended by about twenty-two couples in a variety of costumes. Attracting considerable attention was Johnny Hull and Uncle Sam, arm in arm. The music was furnished by McMillen' orchestra, of Logansport, and all present heartily enjoyed themselves until the whole program waB carried out Supper was served at ll ill scate. Those present from a distance were Mr. Conrad, Miss Hurkett, Mr. and Mrs. liearoff, Miss Ruth Coaldwell and O. D. Oldfather all of V arsaw. A Family Dinner. F. M. McCröry gave a family dinner at his house on New Year's day. The families of V. A. Lidecker and Geo. Uightley were represented. Grand mother Hightley was an honored guest.

Mr. Jordan, one ot the stockholders.'hves in Logansport. The others live m Indianapolis. The promoters of the new enterprise say that it is going to be a "sure go." Newton Harding explained that the company proposed to construct its line on the Michigan road to Frankfort first and then from Logaosport to Warsaw. The road would, he 6aid, carry freight. He represented that Indianapolis would be immensely benefitted by the new avenue that would bring people and trade. He said rights of way would be asked in the other counties at once. Judge Walker submitted the proposi tion of the company as to terms. T company agreed to regrade the road t as to keep tracks at grade, to charge not morw than 1 cent a mile fare, provided no fare should be less than 5 cents, and to charge for transporting freight, not more than half of the rates of the steam railroads. The line from the Ma rion county line to Logansport was to be completed in three years.

Mr. Ford is a veteran smokei, and usu ally takes a smoke from his pipe while in bed before going to 6leep at night. About midnight Mrs. Ford was aroused by smoke in the room, and herself and husband had barely gotten out of the bed when flames broke from the straw in their bed.
