Scrofula, salt rheum, erysipelas and other distressing eruptive diseases yield quickly and permanently to the cleansing, purifying power of Burdock Blood The Marietta Daily Leader SATURDAY, AUGUST 25, 1900. DEATH'S SUMMONS Comes to a Well Known Citizen of Marietta. The sad news of the death of Capt. W. C.

Olds at Battle Creek, Michigan, reached this city yesterday afternoon. Capt. Olds had been in failing health for several years and yesterday marked the termination of a brave and long sistained fight against the ravages of a chronic disease. went to the Sanitarium at Battle Creek in the early months of the year and spent several weeks undergoing from the best specialists in the state. The change seemed to beneficial he returned, seemingly much improved in health.

But this improvement was not of long duration and acting on the advice of his physician, he returned to Battle Creek about three months ago. Instead of improving in health he gradually grew weaker and his wife was sent for. All that medical skill could do to save his life was called to his assistance, but all in vain. Captain Olds died at the Sanitarium in Battle Creek, Michigan, at 1:15 Friday afternoon. The relatives who survive him are Loren, Robert and W.

C. Olds, and Mrs. William Thorniley, one brother, John Olds, is situated at Conneaut, 0. Capt. Olds was 58 years old and was born in Conneaut, where he lived a great part of his life.

He removed to Marietta about ten years ago, and was engaged in the railroad contracting business. The remains will be shipped to Conneaut, where his daughter, Mrs. Clara Rieg, resides, and the burial services will probably be held there Sunday afternoon. Mr. Olds was a man of sterling character and had a wide circle of friends and acquaintances all over the county.

His jovial spirit, won him friends wherever he went, and a character of unspotted integrity held the respect and commanded the admiration of all who knew him. To the bereaved family the Leader extends sincere sympathy in this hour of trouble and of sorrow. CABLES For Bell Telephone Lines Laid Across Muskingum. Two 3-inch pipes were laid across the Muskingum a short distance above the bridge yesterday to protect the submarine cables which connect the system with the West Side. The pipes rest on the bottom of the river and connect with the underground system leading across Muskingum Park and also on the West Side bank.

The cables will be put in at once and the wires connected up within a short time. By this arrangement the old method of stringing wires across the bridge will be no longer needed and although more expensive the new method is very much more satisfactory. DIVORCE Suit Filed by Ellen Tittle Against George Tittle. In Common Pleas Court Friday, Attorney Jewett Palmer fled suit for Ellen Tittle against Gecrge Tittle for divorce. The petition states that they were married on April 7, 1899, in Marieta, and that at the January term of Court Tittle was convicted of perjury and sentenced to the Ohio penitentiary for three years.

No further grounds are given for the action. Mr. and Mrs. Cisler Entertain, Mr. and Mrs.

Thomas Cisler, who returned a few days ago from an extensive wedding tour in the west, gave a very enjoyable reception to their employes and their wives at the residence of his father on Cedar Hill Friday evening. Refreshments, consisting of ice cream, cake and fruit, were served to the assembled guests. Music rendered by the family and Mr. Dietz helped to entertain the guests. Mr.

Cochran also helped to enliven the evening by two extempore speeches. At a late hour the guests departed, wishing Mr. and Mrs. Cisler untrammeled happiness in their married life and a large measure of success in their business ventures. of Real Estate, Mr.

W. C. Frost has disposed of his property on upper Front street to Mr. George Schantz, who resides several miles up the Muskingum. Consideration $1,850.

Possession will be given November 1, and Mr. Schantz and family will move into the house. Mr. Frost will erect for his own occupation a residence on the lot on Sixth street below Warren, recently purchased by him of Mrs. Anna M.

Villers. Silver Star's Dance, The Silver Star Fishing Club will give a dance at the head of Kerr's Island, Buckeye Park, on Wednesday evening, August 29. The steamer Sonoma has been chartered and will leave the wharf for the park at 7 and 8:30 p. m. Music will be furnished by the Marietta orchestra and a good time is guaranteed.

Good will be maintained. Everybody invited. FINE STRUCTURE. City Electric Power Building one the Most Substantial in Marietta. Believing that the citizens of Marietta would be interested to learn of the progress of the city's new power house, and thinking that some explanation of the arrangement and proposed use of the several rooms in the building would not be wholy without interest to the reading public at large, a Leader reporter visited the building Friday morning, and in company with the contractor, Mr.

Blake, made a tour of the partially completed building. The power house is a two-story structure composed of New Lexington pressed brick with Killbuck brown stone trimmings. The Front street entrance will, when completed, have as an approach wide Bedford Limestone stone steps and thevestibule to the large front room will be paved with tile. The interior finish of all the rooms, with the exception of the boiler and engine rooms, is of oak, and the plastering is tinted in rose color. The building dis built very solidly, and judging from architectural standpoint, there is no possibility of unstability in the building.

The foundations are built up of Greenfleld lime stone five feet broad at the base, and tapering to a width of nineteen inches a't the first floor level. The commodious "partment which faces on Front street was originally designed for the City Clerk's office, and a large vault for the safe bestowal of records and other valuables, was accordingly provided. The dimensions of the vault are eight feet, four inches and 8 feet, six inches. It is absolutely fire and water proof and was designed to resist the most severe or prolonged attacks of either one of these destroying agencies. This result is obtained by the following arrangement of the walls and masonry.

Beginning from the inside of the vault a nine inch brick wall is first encountered, then four inch air space is provided, and the vault is finally completed by an outside 12 inch brick wall. The ceiling and floor are formed of steel beams supported by several layers of brick, and eighteen inches of concrete. In order to prevent water, which might All the cellar during a flood time, from penetrating the masonry and becoming stagnant, an excavation of nine feet, from the first floor of the building, was made directly under the vault and was then refilled and tamped so that it is now practically impervious to moisture. The two rooms on the northern side of the building were designed for the County Surveyor's office, but owing to a change in the plans, other disposition will be made of them. On the southern side of the building the first room fronting on Butler street will be used for police headquarters.

Adjoining the police headquarters are the power and boiler rooms. The power room measures 38 by 50 feet with an eighteen foot ceiling. In this room will be placed the 250 horse power Buckeye engine, the order for which was recently placed by the Committee. It is probable that the largest engine now in use at the City Hall will be brought to the new power house, and that several are lights will be added to the present light system. The foundations for the big engines will be commenced immediately and hurried to completion.

The foundations should have been completed by this time, had not a change in the plans, caused by the uncertainty of the make of engine which would be purchased by the building necessary. The boiler room which adjoins the engine room is occupied bytwo immense marine water tubular boilers, having each a 250 horse power. The second story 19 occupied by a large airy, well lighted room, 24 by 34 feet. In the plans this chamber was assigned to the Council but it was thought best by the city fathers to occupy their present quarters and to offer this room for rent. All the rooms with the exception of the boiler and engine rooms and the apartment occupied by the police, will be offered for rent.

The building from the foundation to the roof, is a substantial and handsome structure and has been constructed by the contractors, Messrs. Blake Smith, in strict conformity with the plans. As a result the city has a power house which in stability and general utility can not be surpassed by ani city of Marietta's size in the state. Will Visit Syria. Mr.

Harvey Ferris left Friday evening over the O. R. for New York City where he will visit for a few days, after which he leaves for Paris to take in sights at the Exposition. Later in the summer he will go to Syria and Damascus, his old home to visit relatives for a year. He will probably next summer.
