ural addition to the city.
It will be of the latest Improved

Start a Good Deal of Worry Other
Hospital Cases.
Alartin Jordan, the man whom Pal
rick AlcNulty shot on Sunday, Dec.
!!0, while the former was bombarding

hospital staff a good deal of worry and
concern.
The leg, which was tilled with bird
shot. Is fearfully swollen and wherever
one f the shot lodged there Is pus.
The shots were rusty and unclean, and
this, coupled with Jordan's lowered

perature is dangerously high nnd the
fever shows no signs of abating. I-ast
night It was given out at tho hospital
that there were no signs ot improve
ment and that danger was appre

FAVORITE REMEDY
ODD RECORDS
ALL SORTS OF UNPRECEDENTED
FEATS ACHIEVED.
Thoy Rnngo from Speedy Dlvorcos
and Great Feato of Travel to Un
precedented Financial Transactions
and Varied Forms of Prosperity.
I'roni the Nov.' York Sun,
The first year ot the twentieth cen
tury, A, V. W01, saw many now records
established In odd linos ot human ac
tivity, while It left 11 pathway strewn
with old records broken. To begin at
the beginning: On New A'ear's day
there were thirty deaths from Violent
causes In various parts of Kentucky.
This record set a new high slaughter
mark even In that state of feuds where
firearms and moonshine whiskey, freely
used on holidays, constitute a double
tnenaco to human life.
Kentucky, by the way, eclipsed nil
former records In another direction. On
January 29 a Kentucky firm sold to a
Chicago house S.fiOO barrels of whiskey,
which Is the largest single transaction
In good old red liquor over known. On
this whiskey the United States govern
ment received $300,000 In revenue tax;
tho total amount of cash Involved In
the deal was about $"".0,000; tho quan
tity or spirits was sutllclent to fill 3,
110,000 pint bottles; retailed at "1", cents
a pint the sum rcnllssed would be $2,
CSO.OOO. There seems to bo no trust
worthy way to estimate this total num
ber of jags contained In all this whis
key, or its fecundity In snakes.
.
AfARIUAGE AND DIA'ORCE.
The matrimonial mart usually has big
things to show In a year. All nuptial
speed records were smashed on Sun
day, August 10, at St. Joseph, Allcli. ,
Chicago's Orolna Oreen, when twenty-
seven couples from Chicago were deftly
spliced in one hour and three-quarters,
each couple thus having less than five
minutes to go through tho mill.
The minister who In 1f0l claliped tho
record with reference to the grand total
of marriages and funerals, connected
with a long minister's life, Is the Rev.
J. M. Hatighey. ot Allison City, a little
town thirty miles south of Pokln, III.
During bis career as a preacher, a
period of some forty years, he has mar
ried 1,357 couples and conducted 1.C0O
funerals.
Turning to the divorce side of matri
mony a side peculiarly rich In speed
records one naturally would look to
Chicago, Oklahoma or the Dakotas for
winners. The Chicago speedy-divorce
calendar for tho year found its stellar
performance In tho case of Airs. f!.
Krueger. It took this lady u trifle less
than ten minutes to convince Judge
Dunne that she ought to be cut loose
from her husband, Henry AVIlllain
Krueger, a saloonkeeper of the Windy
City.
At 9.30 a. 111., August 2S, she filed her
bill in the Circuit court charging that
Henry, whom she had wedded in the
preceding April, was 11 cruel spouse. At
9.40 a. 111., the decree bad been signed
by the judge, awarding freedom to the
bride and tnxing the recreant Henry
$l,iiOO alimony. The highest speed
achievement in former cases in any
part of the United States was twenty
minutes for the legal separation of a
San Francisco couple, In 1900.
FEATS IN TRAA'EL.
Refeiing to feats in travel, 11 cer
tainly was a great year forjftbo au
tomobile. Even In those days of
chronic record-breaking such a per
formance as that of Henri Founder,
the French chauffeur, who drove a
heavy French racing machine a mile
in Si" 1-3 seconds on the Coney Island
boulevard. In November, was most
noteworthy.
The long-distance record for horse
less vehicles was broken by Arthur J.
Eddy of Chicago, a former president
of the Automobile club of that city. In
sixty days, from August 1, to Septem
ber 30, he covered 2,900 miles, traveling
through Allchlgan, Indiana. Ohio,
Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey,
Alassaobusotts and purt of Canada.
He averaged about 100 miles a day and
at times maintained a sliced 06 forty
miles nn hour.
AVonders Incident to travel were pro
claimed In other classes; for example,
the unchallenged record ot Charles
llellaniy, a Burlington railroad firemen,
who In eleven years of faithful ser
vice traveled G0CS40 miles and shov
elled 32,501 tons ot coal on tho way.
He never lost a trip or' received a
scratch through accident. Railroad
men say that It Is a case of physical
endurance never equalled.
An engine of the Great Northern
Railway lu England, which was built
In 1870, completed In August an aggre
gate of 4,000,000 miles, breaking the
English record in this respect.
The speediest long-distance delivery
of mall ever accomplished lu the world
was that of the consignment which left
Sydney. Australia, Oct. 15, for London,
England, by tho American route, A
distance of lj,2r, miles was covered in
thirty-one days, a saving of four days
over the Sue?. Canal route.
Around tho world In 0 days 13 hours
and 30 minutes Is the now globo-gtnl-Ing
record, which was completed Inst
July by Charles C. Fltr.inorrls. a Chi
cago high school boy. This beat the
best previous fast circuit of tho world
by several days,

record Is noted In the statement that

the United States treasury had In Its

Hlti DAY IN CATTLE.
Imagine, if you can, a live stock train
10 miles long numbering 2,397 cars
and containing ."51,785 head of cattle,
;I8,45G hogs and 22,231 sheep, and you
will have some Idea or the record
breaking dny for receipts at the Union
Slock Yards, Chicago, on AVednesdny,
July 24, 1901. It was tho biggest day
ever known In the history of this big
llvo stock mart.
Tho drought in the Middle and AVest

rush of stock to the market. The total
value of Hie day's receipts was over
$500,000. The cattle alone consolidated
