$200,000 VESSEL DESTROYED BY FIRE

PORTLAND. Maine, March 15. A fire of mysterious origin almost completely destroyed the American coastwise steamship, Herman Winter. The vessel was beached. For several days the ship has been lying at the, dock of the Eastern Steamship company, being held up by a strike of freight

handlers. The ship, which was valued

at 1200,000, was' insured, as well as

her cargo of cotton and sugar. ELLIOTT ENJOYS WINTER -

DIRECTORS OF Y. M. C. A. DISCUSS CAMPAIGN

Directors of the Y. M. C. A. will meet in-a' called session at 5 o'clock Friday afternoon to complete plans for the financial campaign to be conducted the last four days of this month. Six thousand dollars will be raised during the campaign.

ENTIRE DISTRICT

Continued from page One. state convention and move the nomination ol JIarry 8. New. Lynch Advises Neutrality. It was a significant fact' that although Watson was the Sixth district candidate for the Republican' senator; lal nomination, no resolution was Introduced' at the district meeting yesterday endorsing his candidacy. ''Let's keep out of this Watson-New business," whispered P. J. Lynch, retiring district chairman, and the tip was unanimously played. The largest delegation from the district to the state convention will come

from 'Henry county, and every delegate is a hot Watson fan, but Jim won't get a vote in that delegation. "We have the party's Interests at heart," said George Elliott, one of the Henry county delegates, and editor of the New Castle Courier. "The Republican voters In Indiana have expressed a preference for New, so we are going to stippor New. If the convention was to Ridctruck thp verdict of the voters it would be a heavy blow to the party, and Watron could not. possibly be elected if lie obtained the nomination In such a manner." Rush County Split. It was rumored that Watson would not receive the eolid support of the delegation from his home countyRush. It wag announced that the big majority of delegates from Shelby, Hancock, Fayette and Franklin counties would support New, and "that all of Iho Unipn county , delegates were for New.

It was also learned that one of Wat

son's closest friends, P. J. Lynch, of New Castle, had gone to Rushville to

advise Jim to be a "good loeer."

The convention yesterday adjourned

shortly before word was received o

the death of Senator Shiveley. Prior to the meeting several of the politicians

suggested that if Watson withdrew

his contest he would be the logical

candidate for appointment to the sen

ate In the event of Senator Shively's

death, following the election and in

auguration of Governor Goodrich.'

Lime Starvation

Causes Tuberculosis The Medical Record (New York) of

December 18, 1909, contains an article

on "The Treatment of Pulmonary Tu

berculosis, Based on the Assumption That the Dietetic Cause of the Disease

is Lime Starvation," bq Dr. John F.

Russell, who says.: "The condition

which is recognized as preceding the

active development of tuberculosis in

the adult may be considered as due to

lime starvation. Among in

organic substances lime salts appear

to be of special physiological import

ance but If the salts are

not In organic combination It Is dif

ficult to suppose that the cells can

appropriate them for food."

Years of widespread use confirm us in the belief that the success of Eck-

man's Alterative in cases of pulmon

ary tuberculosis (consumption) and chronic throat and bronchial troubles

is due in large measure to its con

tent of lime, so combined with other

ingredients as to be easily appropri ated by the cells.

Doubtless this has had much to do

with the results obtained in many cases of these affections, which appear to have yielded to Eckman's Alterative.

As It contains no opiates, narcotics

or habit-forming drugs, it is safe to

try. Your druggist will order it for

you or you can send direct. Adv. Eckman's Laboratory, Philadelphia. L

REPORT MANY CASES

OF RHEUMATISM NOW

Says We Must Keep Feet Dry; Avoid

Exposure and Eat Less Meat.

Stay off the damp ground, avoid ex

posure, keep feet dry, eat less meat,

drink Jots of water and above all take a spoonful of ; salts occasionally to

keep down uric acid.

Rheumatism is caused by, poisonous

toxin," called uric acid, which is generated In the bowels and absrbed into

tne blood, it is tne function or tnc

kidneys to filter this acid . from the blood and cast it out in the urine. The

pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly, cold weather the skin pores are closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate this uric acid which keeps accumulating and circulating through the system, eventually settling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism. At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoonful in a glass of water and drink before breakfast each .morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impurities.

Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made, from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and is used with excellent results by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent lithia-water drink which overcomes uric acidj and is benficial to your kidneys as well. Adv. I

THE STANDARD MERCHANDISE CO. OPERATING THE RAILROAD STORE FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS HAVE MET WITH FINANCIAL REVERSES. THEY HAVE TRIED HARD TO OVERCOME THESE DIFFICULTIES, BUT FATE HAS BEEN AGAINST THEM. TTiiey Moist! . Qentt EimsMess

MUST BE SOLD

This is a rather unexpected move, but such is the way of the world. "Happenings of the unexpected. The Standard Merchandise Co. have made an unsuccessful attempt to continue in business in Richmond. They have worked hard and faithful and deserved a better fate. In justice to other interests and their future success. They are going to sell out their entire stock by Saturday March 18 and quit business in Richmond. Goods will almost be given away to avoid packing and shipping. Not one article will be reserved. Everything will be cut with a going out of business price. Never before have we ever attempted such a daring price slaughter. Now is the time to lay in your supplies of really necessary articles for the entire family. This sure is a golden opportunity to the public of Richmond and vicinity. In face of the rising market on everything manufactured, we still reduce our very low prices. It will be a glorious sight to see our patrons with that merry twinkle in their eagle eye selecting their necessities and figuring on stowing them away for some future time. Folks, you all need merchandise of this character. If you don't take advantage of this chance you will have to pay four and five times the price we are asking. Not one dollar's worth of goods do we want to move and ask every family in Richmond who has one spark of saving blood flowing through his veins to come and clothe their families for a mere trifle. Every department in the store is included: Clothing, Furnishings, Shoes, Dry Goods, Queensware, Carpets, Rugs, Congoleum, Trunks, Suit Cases, Go-Carts, etc. We wish to extend our sincerest appreciation to the kind public for their liberal patronage in the past and for our pleasant business relation and hope at some future time to continue along a more successful venture for us.
