THE SIOUX CITY JOURNAL: FRIDAY MORNING, 1895. me; potter will give bonds down, to Healey's saloon in the Hotel ME. PATTEKSOK WOULD TALK. THINKS HE HAS A CLDE Our constant determination to at all times maintain the leadership in the matter of "lowprices" has gained for us a patronage and prestige that is simple invincible. Here are a few Friday Quotations to clinch the argument: organized at the time of commencing treatment, it may be confidently expected it never will in that particular case, under such conditions.

As the size of the above dose is not laid down arbitrarily, and would not cure in some eases; a large margin is left for the physician's own best judgment in such matters. I would here only suggest that the vesicatory is a powerful irritant of the urinary tract, "and care should be taken to prevent strangury by not giving too large doses. If the patient is not seen'for the first time until after the exudation has completely and begins tp impede the respiration, it will be necessary that the Tinct. Canth. (No.

2) be given alone every ten or fifteen minutes, or oftener if the urgency of the case demands it, until the' membrane turns brown or brownish. If it does not turn dark colored in two hours an additional fifteen drops of T. C. must be added to No. 2 preparation, and in that strength applied with a cam el's hair pencil until the false membrane becomes brownish, and turns up at the edges a little; then the forceps may be applied to it, and removed by slight traction; then go back to first strength-of Tinct.

Canth: and alternate with Tinct. Aeon. (Noi 1) as at beginning of treatment. The above medicaments will cure any case of uncomplicated diphtheria, if the patient is not already moribund when treatment is begun. If serious complications are present; the patient's life may then depend on the skill of the physician to master the complication as well as the principal disease.

Diagnosis of Diphtheria. I will add but one symptom or condition to those already found in-medical text books, whereby true diphtheria may be distinguished from diseases simulating the throat troubles of diphtheria, viz. The urine, in true dinfctherla, is voided clear, but in a short time (half hour) it exhibits a deposit of one-fourth its volume, more or less, looking like corn meal gruel, and without this symptom 1 should hesitate to call the case true diphtheria. To be certain of your Tincture of Canth. make it yourself.

Formula for No. 2. Flies ill Alcohol vi Macerate eifrht days. Suecuss five minutes dally. Filter after eighth day.

You will then have a reliable remedy for diphtheria. K. Donnelly, M. D. IOWA GEOGRAPHY.

I was dnmk. T. went uo to the house to go to bed. I met Nellie in the nail and she called me a drunken stiff I turned right around and went down stairs. When I tried to catch the car I was running and I reached out with my left hand and my fingers were touching the hand hold when I fell.

As I went down my. right hand was cramped under me and my hip was bruised some, but not much. My hand is sore I lay on the ground a mm ute and then hobbled to Ralya's meat market, where I leaned against the building for several minutes. In about half an hourl started and walked slowlv to the Fowle. When I went in and sat down I showed the crowd my hand.

Some of those I showed it to were Mike, the bartender. Healev. the two Do- lan boys, Lavary, Lawrence Welsh and about ten men from the nackinsr house I was buying drlnk3 for the I spent 510 or $12 over the bar. When the saloon closed I walked up with Patrolman John Eberly and told him about my hand. He had me rut my arm through his and he walked with me to the corner of Fourth and Pearl streets 'I theft" left him and went up stairs.

This was pretty close to 1.2 o'clock; maybe before and maybe a little after. "I hope every bone In my body may be paralyzed if I ever was In Maud's house in my life." i DATE DAVIDSON.

Galena, Times, 8: Lysle, who came here some time ago and was just opening in the Mining exchange in the confectionery business, was arrested by the sheriff of Woodbury county, Iowa, and taken to that county on the Memphis train this morning.

The charge upon which Lysle was arrested is embezzlement. He was bookkeeper for a live stock concern at Sioux City, which is the capital of Woodbury county, and is said to have embezzled in the neighborhood of, $2,000. Lysle's salary was not sufficient to permit the life he was living. He had a strong tendency toward making some extra money at the card table, and the $2,000 is salary overdrawn for that purpose. Lysle is a.

nephew of J. H. Smith, of the firm of Smith Moeller, lumber dealers, and has a wife and bright little daughter now In this city. Mr. Smith has a brother in Sioux City, who will probably fix the matter up on Lysle's arrival there.

TROUBLE IS LOWER WALL STEEET Crier of "Murder" and "ItelpV Heard --Billy Xead flakes a Statement and Sy Ho Is Willing to Meet Any Charges Officers May Have Against Him.

Constable Steinbeck, believes he has discovered a possible clue to'the murderer or murderers of George Fisher, of lanbury, the man found dead on a sandbar last week in the Missouri river. "Wednesday nig'ht Steinbeck' met Gust Widhind, who lives on the the river in a little shanty at 602y2 Wall fctreet. In conversation Widlu-nd, who is a laborer, chanced to say: "You should have been down our way last week. Three men had a quarrel near my house about 1 o'clock in the morning. They made lots of noise and during the disturbance a shot was fired." Steinbeck became in the man's having In mind the Fisher murder, and subjected Widlund to a rigid examination, the result of which lead3 him to believe that George Fisher was killed in that vicinity.

Widlund said he was sitting in his shanty, he thought- it was the morning after ejection day, although it might have been three or four days after election, when he heard a violent quarrel com-- mence a few rods from his shanty, on the corner of Wall and Culver streets. He looked out and saw three men standing in the darkness, but could not discern their identity. Widlund said two of the men got the third down on the ground and were evidently robbing him, as he yelled "Murder! Help! Help!" several times, and then all was quiet. Widlund said he was afraid to venture from domicile, for fear he would be roughly handled should he attempt toisSCfer any interference. He said the two men pjicked up their victim and went toward the river.

That was the last he heard or saw of the men. A reporter for The Journal went to Widlund's house yesterday morning, but he was not home. Gus Halverson, neighbor, who lives at 507 Wall street, was seen He said Widlund (was away at work. Mr. Hal-' verson was asked about the quarrel which Widlund says he heard, and said: "One night last week there was a revolver fired near the corner of Wall and Culver streets.

I think it was between 9 and 10 o'clock. I was at a neighbor's house and was afraid to go home. When I did start I saw some men running west on Culver street. I cannot remember what night it was." named Emma-Tidd said she had heard nothing of. the quarrel.

Steinbeck believes there is- something in the story and has suspicions which he dos not care to make known 4 at present, lie said, however, that the object of his suspicions was. out of the city, and is a -well known crook -with an unsavory record. However, if the quarrel Halverson and Widlund heard occurred previous to Sunday. November 10, it could not have resulted in the death of George Fisher. A deputy sheriff claims to have Jieard of Fisher Sunday morning.

Hp sflvs nn this date went to a certain doctor and secured medicine to settle his nerves after his spree. Frank Itrown's Confession The facts regarding the confession of Frank Brown, in the murder of Max Noack and Ora Minter, as printed in The Journal yesterday, could have been no surprise to the officers of the law, although the of the article Franl: probably was. Some of the. officers refused to say anything about others smiled and said the story was right. City Attorney Burton, who has the confession locked up in his safe, and on Wednesday refused to tell The Journal anything about it, yesterday said this story was the best The Journal has yet printed in -'regard to the affair.

"Brown-did not you all about he said, "but what he did tell is in substance the same as the statement in the confession." ma IlillyKad's Statement. Billy Nead saw a reporter for Journal this afternoon and talked with him in regard to the story of the confession of Fj-ank Brown. Speaking with especial reference to that 1 part of the story which connected his name with the crime, Mr. Nead said: "If the officers have anything against me let them come right out plainly and say so. I do not want the: finger of suspicion pointed at me; let an assertion be made in a manly way, Why do they not charge me with conspiracy or murder, or even assault?" 1 "Simply because I am Innocent and nothing could foe proved.

"I want to tell you about -that sprained, hand and bruised hip. I will tell you just when, and how I sustained the injuries. At about 8 o'clock on Saturday evening of the night of the murder I attempted to Muctvi -m. uu cci tni me -corner oi Fourth and Pearl streets. I was going Lively Meeting of the Colored Republican Club Last Nifirhfc.

The Colored Republican club of Woodbury county 'held an animated meeting in the small court room at the court house last night for the purpose of indorsing' a man for the position of keeper of the coat room of the Twenty-sixth general assembly and a man for the position of janitor of the governor's apartments. The -meeting was called to order by James Washington, president of the club. The minutes of the last meeting were read by Secretary Bentley, and upon motion of P. Brown they were received and approved. The secretary then read applications from J.

G. Coats, George Stovall and R. II. Early for the position of keeper of the coat room and an application from C. G.

S. Mills for janitor. After the' applications had been read a conflict resulted between several members as to how the meeting should proceed to a choice. J. W.

Taylor moved to proceed to a choice by ballot. The motion was seconded by P. D. Brown, and the motion '-was put by the president, but the meeting was not ready for the question. A.

J. Patterson arose and after being recognized said he wished to offer an amendment to Mr. Taylor's motion. He tre were fools in all climes, and in this case he might be the fool. Mr.

Patterson was stopped by the president, who objected to his remarks, telling him that if he wished to amend the original motion to go ahead and do it. This made Patterson angry, and he emphatically declared that parliamentary rules as he understood them allowed a man to preface the offering of an amendment with a few remarks. The president said he would not tolerate Patterson's talk, but Patterson Insisted strenuously that he had a right to talk and proposed to do so. Continued to Talk. J.

W. Taylor announced to the meeting that Patterson had told him that he would be present to disturb the meeting. O. W. Moore rose to a point of order and said that the constitution of the club allowed a member to occupy the floor but eight minutes, and Patterson had monopolized it longer.

The president said he had not kept time and could not rule, and Patterson continued to talk. He said he had rights in the ethib and wanted to know if they were tbe snubbed. If they were he could withdraw from its membership. Mr; Patterson was informed by the president that he always had more to say than any other member. Patterson claimed' he had as much right to talk as P.

D. Brown or J. W. Taylor. The original motion was put by the president, and Patterson rose to a point of order.

He said he appealed from the decision of the chair in not giving him the opportunity to amend the motion to 'the members of the club, but those present shouted for the which was put and carried. It was then moved and seconded that the applicants having the highest number of votes and the next highest on the informal ballots should continue on the formal ballot and the third drop out. IV D. Brown offered an amendment. He said the applicant receiving the majority of votes on the first ballot should be considered the choice.

O. J. Moore did not agree to this and started to express himself. Mr. Brown said an amendment was not debatable.

Mr. Moore Must He Shown. "The must show me," said Moore, "and I am not from Missouri, either. You will find in Roberts' rules of order that you can debate an amendment." 1 The amendment was put and carried and then the question as amended was voted on and carried. Patterson again got the floor and created some confusion.

He declared he had been treated unfairly by the president. J. W. Taylor moved that Patterson be put out of the house. Patterson want- ed Taylor to take the job, and for a time it looked as if there would be a combat.

The president rapped for order and said if the disturbance was kept up longer he would leave the room, as he did not. care to have his name identified with a club that could not carry on a meeting without so much dissatisfaction. The vote was then taken, with the following result: Stovall 15, Coates 9 and Early 2. Stovall was declared the choice of the meeting. The Case of Mr.

Mills. CV G. S. Mills was the only applicant for janitor of the governor's private apartments, and it was moved and seconded that he be indorsed by acclamation. J.

W. 'Taylor arose and stated that the club had no right to indorse Mills for anything. Taylor was called to order by the president, but Patterson rose to a point of order and said the chair would have to recognize Taylor, and was applauded. The president said he did not want to hear Mills assailed when he was not present to defend himself. "I demand," said Patterson, 'that you put the question." "The chair is out of order," shouted someone.

Taylor charged that Mills worked to secure the election of John Tucker, the democratic candidate sheriff, and Taylor was of the opinion that he should not be recommended. This resulted in a heated discussion, and Mr. Mills, who had come in, withdrew his name. Afterwards, however, a vote was taken and he was A 50-cent on the dollar silk sale at Davidson today. TREATMENT OF DIPHTHERIA.

Georse K. Donnelly Gives a Method of Treatment Which He Has Found Very Successful. Sioux City, lOi, Nov. 14, 1895. To the Editor: The reported prevalence of diphtheria in many parts of our country, and the frequent deaths that result therefrom, prompt me to-give to the medical profession; through your widely read paper, the medicines used, and the modus operandi practiced by myself for many years with invariable success in the care of this, many times, fatal disease; hoping thereby that many lives may be saved through the instrumentality of the physicians who may care to test the power of the medicines, and the procedure now to be indi-cated.

Mr. Potter was asked by the committee if he could give the subscribers a guaranty that the plant would be es-; tabllshed -if the money was raised. It was not intended that any, money should be paid until after $400,000 should be expended, but the committee deemed it wise to have an assurance that their labor, would not be in vain.

The committee re quested a direct and reliable indemnity from Mr. Potter's principals. Mr. Potter said he was acting in good faith, as he felt sure the committee was doing, and he expressed a willingness to do anything reasonable and fair. Inasmuch as he was a stranger, he granted that it was not unfair to.

ask this indemniflcatloit and he offered to put up a bond for 5100,000 as a guaranty that his part of the contract would be fulfilled. This was satisfactory to all and the meeting was adjourned with the understanding that Mr. Potter was to meet.Mr.' the evening and the bond would be arranged. At 8 o'clock the two gentlemen, one representing the committee and. the other representing the glucose company, met in th same office and Potter was given the prepared bond.

iortunnc Disfiguring SKIN DISEASES Instantly RELIEVED the GREAT SKIN CURE Sold tiimiitrTi rw rlr Jt OTTER URUa St Chem. Sole Bostoru U. S. A. by I r- fV Hats Formation of a Society for the Study of the Subject.

Des Moinea JRegister: The incorporators have filed with the secretary of state articles of Incorporation of the Iowa State Geographical society. This society was organized in October under the laws of tho state of Iowa, to promote the study and Increase the' knowledge of geography, and more especially the geography of Iowa. There are few. who are aware of the wonderful geographical features of our state. those who live in its prairie sections a knowledge of its striking natural features will come as a revelation.

Eastern people are wont to consider Iowa as essentially a prairie state the corn state, quite tame, and iacking in scenery and yet Iowa possesses as diver-sied natural scenery as can be found in any state in -the union. The mountain bluffs that line the shores of the mag-nifi-cent and mighty rivers that bound her eastern and western borders are. the wonder of all They are unique and quite different from anything to be found elsewhere. What scenes of picturesque beauty are in the wooded islands and wonderful bluffs of our grand old Mississippi! From the bluffs at Burlington, for Instance, what a splendid panorama of river and wooded island is presented, and the view extends for miles over the prairies of Illinois beyond. Among some of the more striking geographical views in Iowa are the following: The wonderful mass of drift near Sioux City known as the interioesial till.

The massive-granite eruption at Wood-' stc-ck, The gigantic bowlders, known as "Elephant rocks," at Graniteville. The wonderful limestone formations stalactites, cascades and festoons in different parts. of the state, notably along the Mississippi river from Burlington to Keokuk. The striking formation of coal measure, sandstone capped blwfis along our Des Moines river. The ancient lava flow strata of northwestern Iowa.

The curious distribution of St. Louis limestone in Mahaska county and the wonderful millnlte, calcite specimens found in the quarries of Keokuk. The immense quarries of carboniferous sandstone in the old Devonian gorge at Iowa City, and the development of coal measure shales at Des Moines. Picturesque "Elk a coal measure sandstone in Marion county, and the overhanging ledge at Keokuk. The waterfall at "Devil's den" in, Allamakee county.

The canon and bluffs of the Oneota river. The beautiful scenery of the Flint river. The Indian spring at Burlington. -The cliff at Kenwood and limestone formation on Rock creek. The quartzitie concretion in red rock sandstone in Marion county.

The wonderful -of erosion along our river The curious ice erosions in Dea Moines county. These all show what a wonderful variety of interesting geographical pictures may be found in this prairie corn state of Iowa; nor need we go to Switzerland or Alaska for glaciers! Not ice, but great drift glar ciers are here at our doors. Wonderful ulaciers are found at Burlington and Kingston accumulations of drift- material. It is to help the state 1n its work of education and to supplement the text books on geography that the great usefulness of this society will be unquestioned. The aims and purposes as set forth in the articles of association are as follows: To promote geographical knowledge, especially an knowledge of the geography of the state of Iowa.

To obtain a library, maps, charts, globes, model and -relief work, especially relief model work of Iowa scenery, and a-collection of such material and apparatus as may be useful to the better understanding of the subject-To -publish such works: books, papers or periodicals as may be necessary or de-sirs IjIg To keep in touch with the geographical societies of the globe, to publish the latest discoveries and explorations, especially of arctic and antarctic To aid the state of Iowa in its educational work. To furnish such information to schools and colleges or to the government of Iowa, and to obtain Information from these sources in return as may be To obtain suitable, rooms for the work of the association and the proner care of its library, museum and apparatus. The incorporators are E. R. Cowell, E.

A. Scirle and E. A. Skinner. The society invites correspondence and requests all interested in- the subject or in sympathy with the a.ims and purposes of the society to join.
