Tha Cost Was Next to Nothing. being at the rate of $5 a month, Including treatment, medicines and everything, but it resulted in my being completely and permanently cured of one of the wrost cases of chronic catarrh of the head, throat, bronchial tubes and stomach that uny human being was ever cursed with. "I have lived In Runnells for 22 years, but have always fouund the Climate Was Bad for Me. I flook a bad cold soon after I got here and then one cold after another until I found my nose and head stopped up in the way that usuallly Indicates the beginning of catarrh. "There was a continual dropping of matter Into the throat and an incessant and furious hawking and spitting to clear away the mucous accumulations.

In a little while the catarrhal Inflammation seemed to have extended to tho broncliial tubes and air passages. My breathing became scant and diltlcult. I was Weak and Short-Winded, and, In bad weather or after any little exertion, my breath would come and go with a wheezing sound. Time and again have I been compelled to get up in the night and sit by the window to get breath. "Rut I didn't know the real depths of misery that there is in catarrh till the disease reached the stomach.

It seemed as though the membraneous lining of the stomach was literally eaten away. I couldn't eat anything solid without acute pain or a feeling of General Wretchedness and Distress afterward. The trouble was. the food wouldn't digest. It would simply lie on my stomnch like so many ounces of lead, or turn Into gas and cause a miserable belching and bloating.

"My stomach became so sensitive that tho smell of anything cooking would sicken me. Even when a little tea and toast were brought mu I would sometimes wave it away In disgust. "From being deficiently nourished I lost flesh till I was only The Shadow of My Former Self, and when I first went to Dr. McLean I was In a state bordering on despair, liut his treatment acted like magic. It cured mo up in great shape.

Since then I have not known what catarrh or stomach trouble was. My wife says now that it Just docs her good to sit tnd see me eat." ft. YOU ARE NOT SO WARM a you will be the next few weeks.

CI Results in One Material Change in Primary Vote, TATE GAINSTHIRD 0FTHE FIRST dives Him Total af 104 Votes on First Ballot The Miller and Rhine Recounts Today Other Candidates Have dained Nothing. A meeting of the executive committee of the republican county central committee 'Will be held thi8 afternoon at headquarters in the Marquardt block at which the protests of Jesss A. Miller, candidate for county attorney, and George Ithlnes, candidate) for county auditor, will be heard and a decision reached as to whether or not the vote can be recounted. It is claimed in some quarters that the vote cannot be counted, and that the candidates must accept the returns made by the primary judges. In other quarters It is claimed the vote can be canvassed and each ballot counted.

Amos Brandt, chairman, seems to hold to the latter opinion, although he Bald yesterday he was not ready to pass on the question, and wanted the executive committee to act. He said that the primary rule requiring that the ballots be preserved until after the convention evidently contemplated a recount, should any of the primaries demand it. Mr. Miller filed his request for a recount of six precincts yesterday morning. He claims Irregularities in the third of the Second, and In Beaver township.

He complains that the Judges delivered marktd ballots in the third of the Second, and failed to open the ballot box and examine it before they commenced to receive ballots, and that in Beaver a second count was made after the precinct had been declured a tie. As tD the other precincts he merely asks for a recount. Rhines asks for a recount in three close precincts. Yesterday the result as returned by the Judges and noted In the poll books was canvassed, but only one change was made. That was In the third precinct of the First ward, and was with reference to the office of Clerk of courts.

This precinct was reported a tie. It was found that one ballot intended to be voted In another precinct, but on which Tate's name was voted, had been thrown aside. It was decided that this vote should be counted for all but the delegates who were the nominees of another precinct, and the result was it gives the precinct to Tate by a plurality of one vote over Dennis. It carries with it seven delegate, and if the decision stands, will give him 104 votes on the first ballot in the convention, with Wi fur Dennis and 38 for Hult. Dennis protested that the vote should not be counted, but it was pointed out that the ballots shall be counted where the intent of the voter is evident and that similar ballots were received and counted in other precincts.

The canvass gives McQulston 103 votes on the first ballot, lthines 85, and Payne 6 for the office of auditor. For county attorney the canvass which gives the five votes of Beaver to McLennan, gives him 101 votes on the first, Miller 80, and Davis 10, without including the tie of three votes In Washington. McDennan was claiming the nomination on the first ballot by a majority of three votes, but Miller Is unwilling to concede anything until the recount is made or denied him. In the event it Is denied him it Is more than likely an attempt will be made to carry the light on to the floor of the convention. The cavass does not materially changa the result on county recorder.

The canvass gives Cook 70 delegates, Oanady 67, Tomlinson 25, Mrs. Hepburn 22, Russell 6, Scanlon 4. Cook's friends were more confident than ever yesterday, and were claiming his nomination on the third or fourth baljot, claiming that most of the west side delegates Instructed for tho minor candidates would go to him. The canvass does not change the situation In the east side supervlsoral district. Christy has TiVi, Teachout 19'4, and Turner 8.

Halloran and Trls are nominated for Justices, and Baker and Riddle for constables on the west side; Blyler and l'atterson for justices, and Sunberg and Ryan for constables on the east side, and Morris for supervisor on the west side, beyond a shadow of doubt. The general opinion seems to be that the executive? committee will allow a recount of the ballots today, but it Is also believed that the result will not be materially changed. Fiftieth Anniversary.

INJUNCTION IS ONLY PARTIAL flodliylni Order of the Supreme Court Permits the Issuance ol Certificates Against All Property Except That Belong lug to Plaintiffs. The paving of West Grand avenue from Twenty-eighth street to a point about one block beyond Tark Lane, having been completed by the Des Moines Brick and Manufacturing company, a special meeting of the council was called yesterday afternoon that action might be taken for the issuance by the city clerk of certificates against abutting property In payment of the cost, amounting to nearly The contract was entered into in 1S93. The determination of the council to pave the thoroughfare was obstinately resisted by several residents and property owners from the first.

When the board of public works, because of a technical failure on the part of M. H. King to furnish adequate bond rejected his bid of $1.64 per square yard and awarded the contract to the brick company for $1.68, Walter McCain, James Windsor, Edward Mason, William Foster and the trustee! of Greenwood school district appealed to the courts for protection against the action of the board of public works awarding the contract for a price in excess of the lowest bid. The case drtigged along until about one year ago, with varying results in the courts. Finally, defeated in the supreme court of the state and their case thrown out of the federal court by Judge Shlras, the plaintiffs elected to appeal from the decision of Judge Shiras to tho federal supreme court on constitutional grounds, and before that tribunal this portion of the case remains.

The city was successful in the litigation in the state courts, but as a last resort to prevent the execution of the contract Messrs. McCain, Foster, Mason and the trustees of the school district named, applied for and were granted a writ of injunction restraining the city from certifying the cost of the pavins against their respective properties or issuing certificates against Ihe same. Thereupon the city appealed to the supreme court and recently that tribunal Issued a modifying order, limiting the application of the order of injunction granted by the district court to the property of the plaintiffs mentioned, but dissolving it as to ull the other properties interested. The granting of tills order of limitation permitted the contractor to proceed under the law to have the cost of the paving assessed against the property in question. The meeting yesterday was for the purpose of having tha council direct tho city clerk to certify up the cost of tho paving and issue certificates against the various properMis In payment of the improvement.

The history of the contract and a brief summary of the exhaustive litigation having been given the council, the following, embodying the essence of a lengthy resolution on the subject, was presented and adopted: "Resolved, That the council do now assess the total cost of the paving to the property abutting on Grand avenue along the course of the improvement, and against the owners thereof according to the schedule and plat, to Its proportion of front feet of said property; that the city clerk Is directed by the council to certify to the county auditor the assessments as herein made, and to prepare and Issue certificates for same to the Des Moines Brick company, or bearer, to the amount of In the aggregate, divided in amounts as per schedule and as provided by law." Alderman Bennett, following the reading of the resolution, moved Its adoption, but a question having been raised by Alderman Work whether the council would not be guilty of transgressing the restraining order of the court by adopting the resolution, further action was suspended until a copy of the injunction could be procured and passed upon fc the city solicitor. A copy was afterward resurrected, and the solicitor having examined It carefully and stated to the council that In his ojiinion the supreme court had dissolved all the order, save the portion relating to the properties of Mason and those associated with him, the resolution was taken up and adopted. The Water Question. While the messenger sent to procure a copy of the injunction was absent the city clerk, at the suggestion of Mayor MacVicar, took up tho agreement entered into between the bondholders of the water company and the citizens' water committee, final action upon which It is expected will be taken by the council at the special session called for July 6, and read for the second time, the purpose being to clear the way of all obstacles for the approval of the argument at the forthcoming meeting. The reading finished, on motion of Alderman Olmsted, the agreement was referred to the city solicitor and the water works special attorneys for final examination for the elimination of any errors that may still lurk la the voluminous document.

During these few favored months nature lets the miner work, by softening the soli. But In Winter, when the awful cold kills everything out of doors but polar bears and polar dogs, nature not only shuts the miner in his house for eight months, but freezes tho earth into a hard iron ball and locks all the gold In an inexorable Iron grip that no common boring or drilling nor powder blastlrfg could relax or unfasten.

I was In a Most Desperate Condition when I began the treatment, but it resulted in driving the poisons of catarrh out of my system and In putting a permanent stop to those frightful coughing and choking spells.

He waa a tailor by trade, and reured his family mainly from his earnings on his tailor's board, plying his trade Industriously during the whole of his active years. He was a member of the territorial legislature, and speaker of the house (if representatives, lie was specially noted In early Iowa history as a teiniierance champion, being grand worthy patriarch of the Sons of Tern-poriinue at a time when the order was In the height of Its prosperity.

ELOQUENT ADDRESSES MADE Mayor rUcVlcar Congratulated the Society the Magnificent Building Now In ft oct st ol Construction Cuntav Donald on Wark of Turners. The corner stone of tho new Turner ball, situated on KlKhth near Plum Btreet, waa laid with becoming ceremonies yesterday afternoon.

Tho event wan marked ttf the presence of Oustav Donald, the gifted editor of "Iowa Reform," a widely read German publication issued ut Davenport, and William Jteuter, also of Davenport, the former tit whom made an eloquent address appropriate to the occasion In German. tSUty veteran members of the local Turner society, among them Fred Har-bach, Colonel Elboeck, Gu Mogolberg, Jacob JlcuRlIn, Mr. Dlppert and many others, with banners flowing to the music of the military bund, were present and took prominent part in the laying of the corner stone. The society has been without a permanent abiding place since the tire which destroyed the old ball on the same site, two years ago. The mortar with which the stone was set in place was mixed with champagne, two bottles of which were used in reducing the cement and sand to the proper consistency.

Another bottle of the beverage was ruthlessly destroyed by breaking it over the stone and the copper box placed in the cavity in the center. Inside of the box were copies of the daily papers of the city of even date, a roster of the members of the society In Des Moines, several coins, postage stamps and other mementoes of the present, which were silently immured in the center of tho Btone for the inspection of generations yet to be. The structure has attained to the elevation of the floor of tho second story, and at the northwest corner, on a temporary platform erected for the occasion, the exercises were hnd. Mayor Uohn Mae.Vicar, with Colonel Elboeck, Oustav Donald and Fred llarbach, arrived in a carriage a few minutes before the ceremonies were announced to take place, and were followed by the Turner society and the military band. Colonel Elboeck, stepping to the edge of the west wall and facing the crowd in the street, announced tho purpose of the gathering, and closed by presenting Whether itching, burning, bleeding, scaly, rusted, pimply, or blotchy, whether simple, nerofulous.or hereditary, from infancy to age, speedily cured by warm baths with Ccticcb.

Can Enrjr Blood rancura Mnyor Mac Vicar, The mayor, on behalf of tho citizens of the city, said he took great pleasure in extending hearty congratulations to the society on the occasion of tho revival of their home. The society, he said, had shown evidence of extraordinary enterprise in, exiending many thousands of dollars in rearing upon tho site of its former home destroyed by lire, a structure the equal of which In size, architectural design and convenient arrangement, was not to be found In an other city of Iowa. Continuing, he said: "Des Moines appreciates the worth of her German-American citizens, and the important place which they and their descendants occupy in our city, state and union. The erection of this building is not by any means the otdy evidence of the enterprise of Des Moines German-American citizens. In every business square in our city you will lind similar evidence of this thrift and public spirit.

"I understand, however, that with characteristic liberality, this Bociety has not refused membership to any of our citizens because of possible misfortune of birth or ancestry. You have allowed others access to your society and to this new home, which will be dedicated to the worthy object of physical culture, as well as the culture of good fellowship, for which the Turrfrr society la famous. But this is not all; there are, I understand, to be rooms devoted to music and the walls will probably bo decorated with portraits of Goethe, Schiller, Beethoven, Mozart and Wagner, reminding us that the German people und the Turner society are not given alone to physical culture and good fellowship, but also to the refining Influences of music and literature of the highest class. "My good friend, the chairman of your building commit tee, requested that my remarks here be delivered in the German language. I wish for today at least I could claim connection with 'Der but that unfortunate prefix which is to my name, and which stands me in good stead when I mingle with the Irishmen or Scotchmen, proves an embarrassment when amongst the Germans.

"I notice, however, among your speakers the names of those who are well qualified to till a place upon this platform. In whatever capacity they may be called upon; gentlemen whoso reputation as orators and men of affairs is recognized throughout the Btato and nation. With such an array of talented speakers, I am satisfied that whatever I might say will be tiie more appreciated if it be brief. "To those distinguished guests who have come from a distance to celebrate this happy occasion with their Des Moines friends, I extend in behalf of the city of Des Moines a cordial and hearty welcome, and assure them that our city feels honored because of their presence here today.
