A feeble woman
is restored to health and strength,
by Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip-
tion. If ou’re overworked, “run-
down,” or debilitated, you need it.
It’s an invigorating, restorative
tonic, and a soothing and strength-
ening nervine, imparting tone and
vigor to the whole system. It’s a
legitimate medicine, too—carefully
compounded by an experienced phy-
sician, and adapted to woman’s deli-
cate organization. For all the
chronic weaknesses, functional de-
rangements, and painful disorders
peculiar to the sex, it is an unfailin
remedy. It’s because it is unfai-
ing that it can be sold under a posi-
tive guarantee. If it fails to give
satisfaction, in any case for which
it’s recommended, the money paid
for it will be promptly returned.
It is a. legitimate medicine—not
a beverage. Contains no alcohol
to inebriate; no syrup or sugar to
sour or ferment in the stomach
and cause distress. As peculiar in
its marvelous, remedial results as
in its composition.

FORESIS STILL AFLAME
There Islio Doubt That Many Hu-
man Lives Have Been Lost.
MANY VILLAGES WIPED OUT
Hundreds of Head of'Cattlo Burned to
Death and the Only Hope Now Is
Copious Rains—Homestenders
Fleeing for Their Lives.
ST. PAUL, Sept. 26.—J. A. VVestby, who
has large contracts for government sur-
veying, came in last night from the upper‘
Mississippi by way of the Duluth road
and reports terrible devastation along the
line. He says hundreds of cattle are
burned and many homesteads destroyed.
The train on which he came down stop-
ped at one place and took in seventeen
men, women and children, settlers, who
barely escaped with their lives. Unless
heavy rains fall at once, all the little vil-
iages and the homestcads along the St.
Paul and Duluth for sixty miles will be
burned.
There is no doubt that many human
lives were lost and expensive logging out
fits burned. The country along the lake
division of the Eastern Minnesota, partic-
ularly south of Hinckley, is suffering heav-
ily. The country is sparsely settled gen-
erally, but the railroad company has large
forces of men at various points at work in
an effort to save their property and check
the flames.
The colony of the Mills LacsaLumbeI
company at Milacca has been fighting fire
for two days, and still the danger is not
averted. Oak Park, on the St. Cloud and
Hinckley branch of the Great Northern, is
reported in great danger, and it will be
miraculous if it escapes destruction.
Eating Up Everything Before Them.
ASHLAND, VVis., Sept. 26.—Reports from
along the line of the Omaha road are that
forest fires are rapidly advancing and eat-
ing up everything before them. Home-
steaders, surrounded by a wilderness of
woods, are being burned out, and, arriv-
ing in town, tell of narrow escapes from
being burned to death.
The high winds have been effective in
spreading the fires. To add to the discom—
fiture of the excessive heat, Ashland is
filled with smoke, and navigation is seri-
ously impaired owing to the heavy smoke.
The- towns of Perley and Cornstock,
Barron county, are reported to have been
burned by the forest fires, also the saw:
mill, boarding houses, shops, etc, of the
Retau Lumber company. Several thou-
sand feet of standing timber in Barron
county belonging to Laird, Norton &. Co.,
of Winona, has been destroyed, and other
lumbermen will lose very heavily.
The forest fires completely surround the
entire town of Pittsville and Dexterville,
Wood county, and the entire population is
out fighting the flames. The gravest fears
are felt for both places. The 300 acre cran-
berry marsh of Samuel Hines, near Dex-
terville, is entirely burned; loss, $25,000.
Dispatches from Hurley report that
rains have quieted the fire in that region.
Near Weyauwega, Waupa’ba county, two
men are reported to have been burned to
death.
An Unparalleled Hot Spell.
ST. PAUL, Sept. 26.-——The ten days of hot
weather just ended is unparalleled in the
history of this city. It began on the 15th
inst. and continued for a period of ten
days, and the record of these days sur-
passes anything that can be found on the
books of the local signal office as far back
as 1872 and during any of the summer
months of the years.
On the 15th the thermometer registered
79. degs. Each day the ,maximum was
higher until last Friday, when the temper»
ature was 92% degs. ' '
There was a slight fall of 2 or 3 degs.
on Saturday, and it appeared as if there
was to be a cold wave, but in the west
the temperature remained unchanged.
This week, up to yesterday noon, the
thermometor ranged S4 to 90 degs., but
yesterday afternoon at 4 o’clock there was
a. sudden change, and in one hour there
was at fall of 12 degs.
Lighted Up the Skies.
DULUTH, Sept. Sad—Heavy forest fires
were raging last night north and west 01
this city. The fires could be plainly ob
served by their reflected light in the skies.
Shot Her Husband.
AVON, Mass, Sept. fad—Annie E. Make‘
peace and her husband Clarence quarreled,
and Mrs. Makepeace, securing a shotgun,
fired through a. door at her husband, the
shot taking effect in his face. Mrs. Make-
peace was arrested. At present it is not
known how seriously the husband is in
jured.
BRIEF MENTION.
The decision of the directors of the Mica
souri Pacific railroad to indefinitely post
pone the declaration of a dividend caused
a decline of seven points in that stock,
started a semipanic in Wall street and
seriously affected the market. The action
was taken, it is said, to help out George
Gould, who was short of the stock and
was being squeezed. By a. singular coin-
cidence the day was the anniversary of the
memorable Black Friday.
By the bursting of a. bomb at an Italian
celebration at Boyden and Nassau streets,
Newark, six persons were killed and
about thirty injured.
Pension Commissioner Raum, in his an
nual report to the secretary of the interior,
says that there are now on the pension
rolls 616,760 pensioners, an increase of 138,‘
216 over last year.
The Porto has sent a circular to the
Powers in regard to the passage through
the Dardanelles of several vessels Of the
Russian, volunteer fleet. It has been found
that the volunteer vessels were some'
times carrying soldiers, and these ships
were detained owing to amistake as to
their real character, but the porte’s in—
tion of vessels of the Russian volunteer
fleet have been wrongly construed by the
newspaper press. '*‘
A fire broke out in the Morewood wood-
carving machine shop in Minneapolis and
before the flames were extinguished ele-
vator C, the machine shop and several
other buildings were destroyed and a score
of firemen injured, some of them fatally.
The German C‘atholic congress at Buffalo
adjourned. Vicar General Muchlsiepen,
of St. Louis, was elected president of
Priesten Verein.
The government has begun the investi—
gation of the charge against Chilian Min—
ister Egan that he took sides in the late r
war in Chili.

HE POISONED HIS SWEETHEART.
Then Attempted to Kill Himself, but
, Bis Courage Oozed Out.
NEWARK, N. J., Sept. 26.—Ernest Leh-
man, a young man eighteen years of age,
poisoned his sweetheart so that she died,
and then started to poison himself. The
only reason that he did not die was that
' his courage failed him at the last moment,
and after doing the murder he was afraid
of committing the suicide.
For some time past young Lehman has
been attentive to Annie Bush, an eighteen-
year-old girl who lives at 8 Ashmead
street. They got along very we? together
and seemed to behave as lovers sually do.
They were often in each other’s society,
and Lehman spent a large portion of his
time at the girl’s house. But a few weeks
ago he seemed to grow despondent. He
was gloomy not only at home, but while
he called on his sweet-heart. He talked but
seldom, and when he did it was generally
to threaten to commit suicide.
Last night when he called he was more
than usually gloomy. He sat on the steps
with Annie until late, and she tried to
cheer him up. Finally he appeared to
brighten a bit, and said he would go down
the street and buy some soda water. He
returned with the soda water in a bottle
and poured out a little in a glass, which
he gave to Annie’s sister to drink. Then,
unknown to Annie, he mixed some Paris
green in a glass, and filling it with soda.
water, asked her to drink the stuff. Annie
did so without suspicion, and soon after
Lehman went away. Then Annie began
to suffer the most intense pain.
Dr. Wrightson, the county physician,
was summoned, but was unable to save
the girl’s life. He found before she died
that Lehman had drunk some of the stuff
himself. He did not take enough to kill
him though, and it is thought that he be-
came afraid at the last moment. He took
a. train for Elizabeth immediately after
the occurrence, where he was captured
and turned over to Chief Hopper, of New-
ark, by the Elizabeth authorities.
llIiraculous Escape from Death.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.—Professor A. K.
Spence, dean of the faculty of Fisk uni-
versity, Nashville, with his Wife, daugh-
ter and R. C. Edmonston, of the war de—
partment, had a miraculous escape from
death while driving along the Fort Myer
road. Descending the steep military road
from Fort Myer, the horse was stung by a
yellow jacket. ‘ The animal plunged down
the road and over a bridge, carrying ve-
hicle and passengers with him over it, a
distance of twenty feet, into the water.
Professor and Mrs. Spence were pinioned
under the vehicle until extricated by Miss
Spence and Mr. Edmonston, who escaped
with slight injuries. The injured parties
were brought to the Emergency hospital.
The bones of Professor Spence’s face were
broken, his shoulder bone crushed, skull
slightly fractured and his right eye almost
torn out. Owing to the feeble condition
of Professor Spence his physicians are un-
able to state whether his injuries will
prove fatal. Mrs. Spence’s injuries, while
not fatal, are very painful.
A Murder and a Lynching.
ASHEVILLE, N. 0., Sept. SSS—Fred. Tyler,
white, an engineer on the Washington
Western North Carolina. railroad, and Hez-
ekiah Rankin, colored, became involved
in an altercation at the roundhouse here,
during which Tyler struck Rankin with a.
lump of coal. Rankin ran off to secure a
pistol and, coming back, fired at Tyler,
the bullet striking him in the abdomen,
causing his death. A crowd of railroad
men caught Rankin and, taking him
across the river, hung him to a tree.
To Keep a. Farlner Man Out.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.——Congressman
Herbert, of Alabama, has written to Sena-
tor Pugh, of that state, announcing his
withdrawal from the contest for aplace

Colonel Herbert’s friends prevailed on him
to take this course, because the Farmers’
Alliance might capture his seat in the
house in the event of his appointment asa.

TOPE‘KA, Kan, Sept. '26.-——The charter of

the Alliance congressmen, and Mrs. Sena-
tor Peffer heads the list. The organiza-
tion is national, and a vice president was

not capture them.

Shim-{es of the Circus Ring.
“ Circus fights sometimes are sim-
ply a-if‘ui ; hey are always bloody and
brutal. The trouble usually com-
mences in earnest after the evening
performance and just at the time
when every circus hand‘is busy in
helping to strike the tents,.At Youngs-
town, 0., two years ago Barnum’s
show was attacked by a gang of roll-
ing-mill men and a terrible fight fol-
lowed. Two of the assailants were
killed outright and the next ‘day the
body of another was fished out of the
Mahoning river. '
, “The worst fight we ever hhdf was
at San Antonio, Tex., about :five or
six years ago. The evening perfor-
mance had scarcely begun when a trio
of drunken toughs raised a olirturb-
ance in the circus tent and were
promptly pitched out by our 1'1 lstlers.
The gang immediately organiz ed out-
side the tents and began the fi ght by
cutting the ropes. One men agerie
tent collapsed, but we saved t' e big
circus tent and finished the p erfom-
ance. Just as soon as the au dience
poured Out, however, and the circus
hand attempted to strike the tenses a.
pitched battle ensued. The .ass ail-
ants most of whom were negroos, im-
mediately extinguished the tore hes
by the light of which the canvasn 1en
work and a terrible fight in the d ark
began. Every one of the comi'buta' nts
had some sort of weapon other than
those nature gave him—tent stakes,
stones, sticks, pieces of chain, lknin‘es,
and in fact, whatever could be caught
up. It was a half hour before the po-
lice succeeded in organizing a. force
strong enough to stop the: fight.
Upon the ground were seven c :orps es;
two of them were buried at M r. Fr ire-
paugh’s expense—Chicago M ail.
