A BETTER ALARM SYSTEM. The great storm of Sunday night deinonMrutcd tho need ot' an impiovo ment in the fire alarm syptcm In this city.

If n Hi c had Marled, however, In the 1 evidence section and nn alarm hud been necessary It In linrdly pos sible that It could have been given. The holders ot the Keys of tho tire boxes would have to bo awakened, and that would scarcely have been pos sible, for Hip howling of the tempest and the beating of the hailstones wott'd effectually have di owned any noise made by human beings In distress, and the victim of the conflagration would have lo-ct much valuable time In getting tho desired key to turn In on alarm. Fire Chief McNulty rnid yerterduy that he favored having n key ut overy tire box, ro thai no time might be lo't in hunting for the holder of tho key. urouslng him from slumber and then getting possession of it before turning In an alarm. topics ofThe town, HOHV- To Mr. and Mis. .Mm Mllligait, of Olllii rt stictt a mil f.WXU TO MICHKIAN.-Herbert l.uto. of .ter nij 11, came here 1it eccnlng and lett on the Krlo i1er for Calumet, Mich.

The Perunn Medicine Company, Columbus, Ohio: Gentlemen "I was cuied of a very seveie ca&e of bladder tioublo which tho doctors did not know how to leach. I had seveie head ache and dragging pains with it, but bofore the second bottle was used I folt much relieved, and after having used tho fifth bottle life looked differont to me. This was nearly a year ogo, and I havo had no recurienco of the tioublc. I cannot piaise Peruna too highly." Mrs. C. L. Byron. Catarrh of Bladder or Clnonic Cystitis. Mr. Charles Lindsay, nt South "Wayne, Wis., who is 03 years of age, writes Dr. Hartman as follows: "1 have been tumbled for liftecn years with eatarili of the digestive or gans and tho bladder. Have tried all medicines recommended lor niv troub'o but could not Hud anything that would I lelleve me of my tet tiblo suffering un I til 1 xvas advlbPd to tuko Peruna.

"I highly recomemiiil Peruna to all and every one suffering with catatrh In any form." Charles Lindsay. Cystitis Is One Form of Chronic Catntrh. Cystitis Is catarrh of tho bladder. It would bo dilllcult to desctibe the distressing and annoying fsymptoms which tills disease occasion. We shall not attempt to do so for many rea sons. People who have had tiny exper ience with this disease, know without any words of ours, the agony which it orlngs. Catarrh of the bladder Is not onlv ;i distressing disease, but very difficult to cure. If the function ot the Mad der could be suspended , for a. few days, it would be much easier to treat it, but to undertake to treat an in llamed organ nnd yet gi-e It no rest ' from its regular function Is quite dif ficult. l'eruna has proven Itself, after many years' experience, a lomarkablo rem edy for these eases. The two cases given nie only two of hundreds xvo could cite. After iloetoix have failed, Peruna cures. After months of suffeilng and Illness, l'e runa restores. It sometimes happens that after year of chronic catarrh of tho bladder has been endured a eoursj of Peruna permanently cures. i Any one so alllleted should not fall i to write Dr. Hurin.mii.

Tlteie will bo no adinl'ston chaiged. but a eilvcr oflci ing will be taken as usual. Ihl. ofleiing is Milely lor tho purpo-o of dclrajlng the expense of btlnging lectuttrs here, 60 that the people of the city may icceive tho benetlt of a popular lecture courso without Ihe bother and cpcnso cf purchasing tickets for It. Tonight's lecturer and his subject have been highly pulsed by tho pi c.i, THAT L1HIIAUV IICIMUMJ. Although much of the excitement that was induced when tho news of Andrew Catnegle's oiler became known first has subaldcd, there lias by no means beets any change In tho public sentiment. Nearly every city of this town seems to bo of the Itn prcsslen that it would be an act almost of a criminal naluie to allow such an opportunity to go by to acquire an addition like this to tho cltj's public bulldlrgs. In all probability a petition will be started by some of tho public, spirited citizens prajing that the councllmanlo bodies take prompt and favorable action on this question. HUMWIRKV WON.
