CARBONDALE LOSES INDUSTRY.
Casket Concern Goes to Another City
Because of Lnck of Public Spirit.
This community has lost tho casket
concern which Intended to locate hi
Simpson. If any spirit of co-operation
had been shown by the olllclals of Fell
township. Alderman Morrison, through
whom the parlies, who were from
rhlladclphla, came to Cnrbondnle look
ing for a silo, returned from the (Junk
er city on Thursday night with the
disappointing news thai the manufac
turers had abandoned the hope of lo
cating In Simpson.
It can be safely said that the loss
of the concern, which would develop
Into quite an industry, employing prob
ably a hundred hands, is due to the
lack of public spirit on the part of the
olllclals of Fell township. The pro
jectoiH of the enterprise, which would
be a consolidation of throe factories
now running Independently, asked for
exemption from tuxes for a term of
years, but the proposition was not only
received with Indifference, but was al
most spurned. II is 11 loss that Hie
community can ill alford and will have
the effect of keeping oilier industries
away, which might seek encourage
ment. DR. WHALEN'S LECTURE.
His Description of Life in New York
City Repeated.
ltev, Dr. Wlinlen repented his lecture,
"The Bright and Dark Side of Life
In New York City," before an audience
in the lecture room of the Korean Bap
tist church that was fascinated with
the masterful word-pn.'nting of the
speaker.
Dr. Whalen was a theological stu
dent In New York 'Ity. and afterwards
a suilmrban pastor, and this, coupled
with his keen powers of observation
and his love to study those conditions
which enter into a gieal city's life,
enabled him to acquire u thorough and
lasting knowledge of the bright and
dark sides of America's greatest city.
Thus equipped, and with his eloquence
and force, Dr. Whalen afforded a treat
lo those who were his interested hear
ers' last nielit.
The lecture was fully illustrated,
which greatly accentuated the efforts
of the speaker.

MEN BEFORE
THE PUBLIC EYE
William A. llobcrt.-, of Soranlon,
who recently assumed the direction of
music at tho Korean Knptlst church,
has not only won hl way Into tho
hearts of that congregation, In an ex
ceedingly brief time, but Is establish
ing himself lu the town, his touching
of voice culture and pianoforte attract
ing widespread Interest,
lOver since Mr, Jtoborts appeared at
the recital at the homo of Haydn Kv
atis lu tho early summer, his majestic
voice has been nought after and ap
preciation of It Is shown In Increased at
tendance at the Korean Kaptlsl church
when he Is announced for a special
number. Ills prooiirenient ns organist
und dlivetor of music at ths church has
given the music of that congregation
u reputation that could not b" boasted
of so highly before; a fact which the
congregation fully appreciates. All
who have heard Mr. Huberts fairly
jump at the prediction that the future
holds many achievements for him
which are of his ambition and his talent
Is sure to win.
Select Councilman .lames Tlioinn
son, who represents the Sixth ward,
In the upper branch, is one of the men
who, while keeping eyes on the Inter
ests of all the citizens, l suro not to
allow any ward gain any advantage
over his own.
".Jlninile." Thompson, as he Is
known, Is n tighter from away back,
and when It comes to looking after
the Sixth, he lights with Ills hands and
his feet, ills backbone Is not made
of jelly-llsh, but will be found to be
the hardest kind of an article when he
Is aroused to battle for what he thinks
Is not right. Oftentimes tlipre has
been ,1 storm of criticism over the
course he might take, but ".Jlininie'' Is
unyielding in Ills opposition and he Is
unmoved by talk outside the council
chamber when lie believes lie is fol
lowing the eouive that Is tho right one,
Irrespective of the number of ills col
leagues on the other side of the ques
tion. Mr. Thompson mofisses to be ho
master of Knglish in debating a ques
tion, but lie can claim credit for some
good, sound ideas on municipal mat
ters generally and the citizens can
feel that there will be no prolllgate
waste of taxes while ho can lay his
band on the cheek rein.
Among all the men holding public
ollice in Carbondale there Is none who
enjoys a greater reputation for eon
scientiousiuss and honesty than l'oor
Director .lohn McCnbc.
"Honest" .lohn .McCnbc Is how he is
r"fcricd to and a study of his career
reveals eharacteristie and traits that
deserve the title for the man. As it
was said of John Sherman that he was
the watch dog of the Culled States
treasury, so can II be said of John
McCabe that there will be no extrava
gant use of the poor district funds If
it lies within his power to enforce a
policy of economy and honesty consis
tent with tile needs of the district.
Mi. McCnbo is noted for his frank
ness of speech; lie culls a spade by
that name, notwithstanding the shoe
may pinch some foot; but everybody
know? it fs Ills candor that compels
thes" statements and he is admired for
it. This steillng lu sty in public life
Is tine also of bis business dealings,
as well the merchants readily testify
who have relations with him, An
other commendable characteristic of
Mr. MiCabe Is his devotion to the
cause of total abstinence. He is one
of the most ardent and active Father
Matliew men hereabouts and he always
has 11 voice in the affairs of the Dio
cesan t'nlon.

fl NEW DEPARTURE,
A New Effectual and Convenient
Cure for Catarrh.
Of catarrh remedies there Is no citdi
but of catarrh urn-cn. there Imn al
ways been a great '.eitrclly. There urn
many remedies to lvl'.uvi', but very few
Hint really euro.
Tho old prntitlco of miullliu.' milt wa
ter through tho noso would often i-j-Uove
und tho wiulK", tloiivhis, pow
ders nnd Inhalers in common use nre
very little, If nuy, better than tho old
fashioned salt water douche.
Tho use of Inhalers and the applica
tion of salves, washes and powders to
the uoso nnd throat lo cure catarrh Is
no more reasonable than to rub tho
kidney trouble or houinatlsm and It
Is Just as much a blood disease as
kidney trouble or rhounmtisf and It
cannot be curo'l Vy 1m til treatment
any more than they can be.
To cure catarrh, whether In the
head, throat or stomach an internal
antiseptic treatment Is necessary to
drive tho catarrhal poison out of tho
blood and system and the new ca
tarrh cure ,ls designed on this plan and
tho remarkable success of Smart's Ca
tarrh Tablets If becur-e bt-i ,f-7 used In
ternally, It drlvm ou; catarrhal Infec
tion tbriugh action upon stomach,
liver and bowels.
Win, Zimmerman of St. Joseph, re
lates an experience with catarrh
which is of value to millions of ca
tarrh sufferers everywlnro. lie suys:
"1 neglected a slight nasal catarrh un
til It gradually extended to my throat
and bronchlul tubes and finally even
my stomach and liver became affected,
but ns 1 was able to keep up and do a
day's work 1 let It ,-un ulong until my
bearing begun to fall me and then I
realized thut I must get thl of catarrh
or lose my position as J. wo clerk and
my hearing was absolutely necessary.
"Some of my friends lecoinmeiided
an inhaler, another catarrh salve but
they were no good in mv case, nor was
anything else until I heard of Stuait's
Catarrh Tablets and bought a pack
age at my drug store. They benefited
1110 from tho start nnd in less than
four months I was completely cured
of catarrh although I bad suffered
nearly all my life from it.
"They are pleasant to take anil so
much more convenient to use than
other catarrh remedies that I feel I
cannot say enough In favor of Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets."
A little book 011 cause and cure of
catarrh will bo mailed free by address
ing F. A. Stuart Co.. Marshall. Mich.,
and the tablets are sold by all drug

THE PBESIDENT'S FAMILY.
Mrs. Koosevelt and Her Little Flock.
An Interesting- Group.
Mis. Theodore Itoosovelt, the new
mistress of the white house, Is de
scrihed as a woman of exceptional tact
and amiability, possessing- social qual
ities and characteristics and sound
health that admirably 111 her for the
position she has entered on as llrst
lady of the land. Both she and her
(listiiiKUlshed husband are in tho prime
of life, and are devotedly attached to
each other, sIiowIuk- almost as strikim;
nn instance of conjugal harmony ami
fidelity an was that of the late presi
dent and his dearly loved wife.
Mrs. Ito'sevclt was Kdith Ke.rmlt
Caroiv. daughter of Charles Carow, of
New York, and Ki-anddailBhter of (len
era I Tyler, of Norwich, Conn. Edith
was horn at the old Carow mansion,
Fourteenth street and t'nlon siiuare.
Her Kh'lhood was passed in New York,
ilurltiK part of which time she was a
pupil at Miss Coinstock's school lu
AVcst Fortieth street. Thp Carows
were then one of the foremost families
in town. The ltonsevelts held a simi
lar position. There was a strung In
timacy between them. Kdith Carow
iu particular always having been a
close friend of Theodore I loose volt's
sister, who is now Mrs. Douglas Itob
luson. Hardly a wee); passed (lint Theodore
IkOoscvelt and Kdith Carow did not
meet. They were both of them In their
early teens ami far too young fur any
thought of romance. And it was with
a purely cousinly friendliness that they
said good-bye lien young Theodore
left New York lo go lo Harvard.
Theodore Kooovelt has never been
known to waste an opportunity. IIo
learned more at Harvard than toil or
dinary boys would havo learned, and
ho did not neglect his social advant
ages either. For he had become en
gaged In the meantime to Mbs Alleo
Lee, then one of the belles of IJoston.
The Lees were one of the best Hoston
families. Theodore was considered an
exceptionally promising young man,
No objection v.'is raised to their mar
riage. This was- to prove the only tragic
chapter lu Theodore Roosevelt's life.
For after only a year of married llfn
his young wife died, leaving a baby
girl. and namesake behind her. This
baby Is now the grown-up daughter
nf Mr. lioosewlt. Miss Alice, wlio Is
to iiiake her debut In Washington this
winter.
While becoming accusloincil lo his
grief, Theodore Konsevelt met again
and often the young woman Willi
whom he had been such Bond friends
half a ilor.en years before,
lu the meantime Kdith I'aiow had
gained it reputation I'or uluolule lack
of susceptibility, It was believed idlo
would never marry.
Fur handsomer, men than Thi-inloru
Loo.-evelt bad paid their court lu vain,
dradllally, however, during the lo-xt
few years an iiiiderstundliig was es
tablished bet M cen them.
Theodore ltosevclt and Kdith Carow
discovered thai they wcro In lovn and
electrliled New York by announcing
their 1 llgagell'.cnl.
They were married a few mouths
afteruanl in Kuglnud.
In addition to MIks Alleo there are
live younger 1 lilldreu Muster Teddy,
Jr., who h y. years old, and Is now at
siliool at tirotou, and Kllui, Archibald,

That commonplace and indispen-'

tho label on the tin has been the mes
sage sent by America to millions of
uncouth people who never heard of the
great republic, and who, if the anti
climax may be allowed, never set eyes
on a milch cow. Tho explorer and tho
missionary are the advance agents of
condensed milk. It goes wherever they
vMiture. and when the missionary bus

ttlldcriicsri whole a. discarded milk tin
does not glitter iu the sun. It has
blazed tho way across Africa; tt has
b' on very near to the Polo, for Lieu
tenant Peary relates that eighteen
years after the C.ieuley expedition
cached canned rations iu the frozen
North ho found the condensed milk
as sweet and wholesome as over. In
tho fastnesses of Northern Luzon,
where an American face had never
been seen, Ucneral Young's soldiers
found tins of condensed milk. It can
be found all over Mongolia and Mau
(btin.i, and even in Thibet. Tin- Chi
