A jrreat manv democrats are ciam orinor for a reopening of the tariff! question and a few republicans are joining in the agitation. It is easy to see why democrats should attempt to revive tariiT reform, since they have no other issue with which to go before the people, but it is not easy to discern any good reason why republicans should 'aid them on their design. Nothing sits so like a nightmare in business and industry, nothing so stifles new enterprises and paralyzes old ones, r.s a tariff agitation. The bitter experience from 1SS4 to 1S9G ought not to be forgotten so soon. Business men and manufacturers do not want to repeat that dose p! 4pertidy and dishonor" and the party that attempts to impose it on them will be sma-shed. Tariff revision, except as the schedules are necessarily altered in minor particulars from time to time j meet changed trade conditions in individual articles, is just what is not wanted and is not needed. Tariff tinkering would prove detrimental to all business and especially so to southern interests, where protection is building factories and establishing industries at a tremendous rate. Let well enough alone. DECAPITATED But the Victim of a Strange Accident in Chicago Still Lives. Chicago, July 13. Physicians are deeply interested in the strange case of Joseph Burdick, -whose condition is described with little exaggeration in the paradoxical term "living although decapitated.'" Burdick lies at the People's hospital suf fering from the effects of an accident "Which occurred yesterday. His heaü was almost torn from his body and the man was carried to the nearest hospital to die. Today Dr. I. Clark Gary pronounced him likely io recover, although he will probably al-. ways have to breathe through a tubo projecting from his throat and may never speak again. Burdick was at work loading a flat car with iron castings on the Chicago & Western Indiana railroad. Suddenly and without warning the car overturned, burying the workman under a muss of heavy metal. One huge piece pinned him across the throat, and when relief arrived it was thought he was dead. The trachea and larynx were completely torn - away, respiration was impossible and it was readily seen that his head was hanging almost by a shred, although by. some strange chpjace the neck was not broken. The jugular vein and carotid artery were unharmed, although the blow, on the windpipe beside them cut away the flesh and exposed them to view as completely as could have been done by a surgeon's scalpel. Burdick was made comfortable, promptly operated v.pon and equipped with a device for breathing purposes which projects from the throat just above thp rollar bone. It was found that not a vestige of the larynx remained and that he had sustained severe bodily injuries, none of which will prove fatal if the gash in his throat fai's to kill. The victim is 45 years old and has a wife and six small chil Mreu, who are visiting in Cincin nati and are not yet apprised of the accident, because of the difficulty of learning their address. Illinois Crops Burned. Tuscola, 111. , JulyI3. Excessive beat has prevailed throughout' the corn belt for two days, and as a result of the hot -winds the oats crop is burning up. before it can be harvested, and Indian corn is suffering. All hopes of cn evemgo crop of corn are destroyed.

SIXTEEN KILLED

And Many Persons Injured in a Collision On the Alton. Kansas City, Mo., July 11. One of the worst wrecks in several years on the Chicago & Alton railroad occurred yesterday near Norton, Mo., 100 miles east of Kansas City, when passenger train No. 7, west-bound, from Chicago, collided head-on with the second section of freight train No. 83, going east. Eight persons were killed outright and about twenty-five more or less injured, eight- of whom have since died. In a fire that started from the demolished engines the dining car and one chair car were partially burned. Relief trains started from Slater and from Kansas City, 'each carrying a corps of physicians. The trains collided while going at a rapid rate, the engines being demolished and the forward cars telescoped. Both engineers, the freight conductor and Baggageman Racer were killed outright, as were three passengers. ' Most of the -' damage was done in the combination smoker following the baggage car, these cars being pushed into the space of one car by the terrific impact of the collision. AND THE FROG EXPLODED Pet Batrachian Eats Dynamite and Blows a House Up. Albany, Mo., July 13 An accident in which three children a pet frog, and some dynamite figured, resulted "Wednesday in one death, two persons seriously injured, and part of a dwelling demolished. The three children of George McCurry, a contractor, found some dynamite in the cellar of their home, and, thinking it was putty, fed it to their frog. The pieces of dynamite resembled insects, and the frog ate them. A large tool chest fell on the frog and exploded the dynamite which had been eaten. A chisel pierced the temple of the youngest child and killed him. Another child and Mrs. McCurry were seriously hurt and part of the house wrecked MARL AT WAWASEE A short time ago there appeared in these columns an account of the workable marl deposits in Union township, in which it was shown that there is in that town ship a natural resource worth more than any other source of wealth in the county except the soil itself. Herewith we give an account clipped from an exchange, of the development of marl at Syracuse, Kosciusko county,. 'The first big cement plant to be operated on the banks of a northern Indiana lake, using marl dredg'ed from the bottqm of the lake, has proved a gold mine. The concern at Syracuse, on Lake Wawasee, is turning out seven hundred barrels of first quality cement daily and could place double that quantity for months to come if its capacity permitted. The works employ more than two hundred men, running day and night and Sundays, and the directors this week made -an order to double the capacity of the mill this year. The profits, and the company are making money, are all to be reinvested in machinery and buildings. Several other mills are projected in that region, but none are under construction. The Syracuse mill cost complete, several hundred thousand dollars. Syracuse has taken on a boom such as no small Indiana townias enjoyod in recent years and much money is being invested in business there." Paid After Long Delay. Washington, D.C., July 11. The state department has received the amount of the American indemnity claim against Turkey, 805.000, through the American legation at Constantinople. Injuring the Corn. . Hagerstown, Ind., July 13. The terrific heat of yesterday shriveled the corn in almost all localities. The pasture lands are becoming brown and all vegetables are badly damaged.

BIG CLOUDBURST.

Corbin, Montana, Swept Out of Exis tence in a Few Minutes. Helena, Mont., July 11. A deluge oi rain, amounting to a cloudburst,, washed away nearly the entire lown of Corbin, twenty miles south of here, and the big Peck concentrator there Tues day night. So far as is known there was no loss of life, but the damage to wires renders details unobtainable. Tracks and trestles on the Northern Pacific and Great Northern were washed out and both roads were unable to get trains through. Messages received -from the deluged section contained the information that the town had been inundated to the depth of eight feet. Nearly all the houses were wished away and practically all the concentrator was carried off, a mass of debris. A great mass of water poured from the hills upon the town and struck the buildings with terrific force. Practically the entire town and concentrating plant were in the path of the water and nearly everything was washed out in a few minutes. HINSEY A LAPORTEAN Rapid Rise of the Man Mho Wrecked a Fraternal Order. John A. Hinsey, the president of the l'vthian endowment rank who is responsible for its present wreck, was city marshal of Laporte, then a railroad detective, and from that a railroad claim agent.Being a 'jgood fellow" at conventions he was, without any regard to his lack of knowledge and experience, given the sole management of the endowment rank, involving the handling of millions of dollars and the welfare of 70,000 policy holders. 4,Good fellows" are all right, but common sense and Common honesty ought to count for something in fraternal elections. Cattle Leap to Death. English, Ind. July 11. A drove of more than seventy-five head of cattle being driven to Louisville by Frank McKinley and Tolbert Dooley were frightened and stampeded by a passing train near Riceville. The whole drove rushed-over a cliff, sixty feet high. The animals, which were not killed outright by the fall, had to be killed on account of broken limbs. When this was resolved upon the unfortunate drivers sent word through the neighborhood to farmers and everybody to assist in the slaughter and quarters of prime beef were carried in every direction. Brill Heavily Fined. Laporte, Ind., July 11. Joseph "W. Brill, the Cleveland mine owner, charged T7ith ah attempt on the life of Attorney E. E. Weir, was discharged from custody. Brill appeared in court and entered a jlea of guilty to assault and battery and Judge Richter imposed a fine of 500, which was immediately paid. Daughter of Andrew Johnson. Greenville, Tenn., July 11.The funeral of Mrs. Martha Patterson, the last Gbild of ex-President Andrew Johnson, occurred today. She was interred by the side of her .father and husband in the family cemetery near this place.. There are left five sur vivors of the Johnson family. Examine Your Old Coins. Norfolk, Va.. July 11.

The sup'reine lodere of Knisrhts of Py thias adjourned last evening after taking radical action to wipe out the heavy deficit that was developed hy the investigation the meeting had to make. With half a million dollars past due on death claims, no money on hand or available assets in sight and assessments already collected up to the limit, and with members dropping out at the rate of two thousand a month, the problem of keeping the endowment rank alive was a difficult one. The plan adopted was an in crease of 51'-per . cent, in the premium rates to all members, . to take effect in October. It is ' conceded that this will drive out; at least one-third of the members ot tne euaowment rami ana those who lapse will be the insurable risks, leaving a large surplus of old and unhealthy members to increase the death rate, but no other plan presented was regarded as feasible if the rank was to be continued. The new rates are equal to those of the regular life companies for the same class of insurance or term policies.. It was also decided that no investment should be made without the concurrence of at least five members of the board of control, thus doing -away with the one-man power that has afflicted scrmany fraternal insurance societies; that death certificates - issued upon false representations shall be resisted and that the entire organization of Knights of Pythias shall support the endowment rank. Turbulence in Spain. Seville, Spain, July 11. Martial law has been proclaimed here, owing- to the turbulence of the strikers." A mob paraded the streets, hurling stones premiscuously until a late hour. The streets are now patrolled by troops. An Ideal Summer llouie.

Wifehood as the Test of Womaniiood. Tho Good Woman Who Makes a Bad Wife. Marriage was a serious thin? to ths grandparents and great grandparents of the present generation. No woman entered lightly upon wedlock. She knew that she was eoin? to found a family, and that she must be equal to all the responsibilities of the position she assumed. She must be able to order her own household: to knit. sew. spin,make bread, butter, soap, candles, and indeed care for and clothe a whole family. She must not be craven when the whoop of the Indian warned of a dreadful danger. She must stand by her husband, gun in hand. How many women of to-day could undertake wifehood under such conditions? Few indeed. Not because the modern American woman lacks courage, but because ebe lacks as a rule the physical health which is the indispensable qualification for a life such as was lived by the women of the past. That is why a gotd woman may be a bad wife. Virtue and goodness are excellent things in women, but to guide a house and bear children demands above all sound physical health. WOMEN CONVICTS. To a great number of women tle house they live ic is almost on a par with a prison. It is prison-like in the monotonous regularity of daily duties ; prison-like in the absence of all- pleasure in what is done or joy in the doing. And the reason is to-be found in womanly ill-health. Few women realize how intimately the general health is related to the health of the delicate womanly, organs. . A woman may suffer with heart "trouble," disorders of kidneys, liver or stomach, or with nervous Srostration as a result of a diseased conition of the womanly organism. Many such women n doctor" for .years fpv various diseases and wonder why they don't get better. They can't get better until the womanly organism is entirely cured of its diseases. This is not theory. It is a statement of simple facts founded upon the testimony of; hundreds of thousands of women v ho have been cured of womanly diseases by the nse of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. They had been just "dragging around" for years, with throbbing heads and aching backs, nervous, dyspeptic, miserable.

AFRICAN: IN EUROPE OR AMERICA cines, exhausting the local medical skill at their disposal. At last some friend or neighbor who has personally proved the curative power of "Favorite Prescription" recommends the nse of this medicine and that in almost every case means another sick woman made well and strong. ASTONISHED THE DOCTOR. "When I first wrote to you I did" not think I could live till I could get an answer to my letter," says Mrs. Isaac S. Harris, of Gayville, Yankton Co., S. Dak. "At that time I did not tell you everything. When I wrote j-ou I had just got home from the Hospital at Minneapolis, Minn. Had been there one month. Could not see as I was benefited any there, so I cime home, thinking there was no help for me, and every one here said that I could not live. I would have sinking spells every day. Sometimes they would last an hour or more and I would be so weak it seemed almost impossible for me to breathe at all. Had night -sweats for three months, and my clothes would be just as wet as could be. Had uterine trouble also till I thought I would lose my mind : also had heart trouble so badly I did not know ' fftVi hat to do- 1 suffered evJXl " m erythinz oue could think of. We paid out so much there was nothing that did me any good till I con(SWfevJ sented to try Dr. Pierce's i-iSiÄr Favorit Prescription and ' Golden Medical Discovery. I did not have any faith in these medicines at all, but I am only too glad to say that in three days after taking the medicine I could see a change for the better. In a week I could sit up and then I commenced the treatment for uterine trouble. In three weeks I was able to be around the house some. I have taken nearly twelve bottles of the medi cine and still continue to take it. I am getting better right along, can ride or walk any place. I can never praise your medicine enough. "The doctor here says that he never would have believed that your medicine could have done so much for any one if he had not seen what it has done for me. He also told me to keep on taking it, for he could not help me. I thank you a thousand times for your kind advice and for your medicine.w SAFE AND SURE. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is unrivaled as a safe and sure medicine for the cure of womanly diseases. It establishes regularity, dries nnhealthy drains, heals inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness. It is the best preparative for motherhood, giving vigor to the body and buoyancy to the mind. It so strengthens the, organs of maternity that it makes the' baby's advent practically painless. As a tonic ror nursing mothers it has no equal. It increases the nutritive secretions and strengthens and nourishes both child and mother. Weak and sick women are invited to consult Dr. Pierce, by letter, free. All correspondence strictly private and sacredly confidential. Address Dr. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. Accept no substitute for "Favorite Prescription.w There is nothing "just as good" for weak and sickly women. A WONDERFUI, BOOK. Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser is a wonderful "book, condensing as it does into 100S large pages a mass of medical and hygienic information invaluable to every woman. It is especially wonderful in that it is sent free to any woman on receipt of stamps to pay expense cf mailing only. Send 31 one-cent stamps for the book ia cloth binding, or ax stamps for the book ia papcr-covera. Adirtca Dr. n. v. Pierce, Ezlo, II. Y.
