Pe-ru-na Contains no Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found
permanent use in so many homes is that
it contains no narcotic of any kind. Pe-
runa is perfectly harmless. It can be
used any length of time without acquir-
ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro-
duce temporary results. It is permanent
in its effect, i
It has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause of catarrh. There are
a multitude of homes where Peruna has
been used off and on for twenty years,
Such a thing could not be possible if
Peruna contained any drugs of a nar-
cotic nature.

nald Belsize (Mr. Figman) will inherit a
fortune provided he is married on a certain
day and his wife be other than a certain
Peruvian widow. His lawyer suggests tnat
he meet these requirements by marrying a
woman whom he can divorce at the end
of a year, and thus leave the way open
for his union with the aforesaid Peruvian.
A country girl, Katherine Silverton, agrees
to become the bride. The marriage is cele-
brated, the two separate at once, and each
awaits the divorce proceedings. They meet
with a lawyer to discuss the proposed
litigation, whereupon some entirely un-
expected happenings occur. ' ■
Wall Street Report' Is That Move for

New York, Feb. 25.—It is positively as-
serted in Wall street that John W. Gates,
Joseph H. Hoadley and “Silent” Smith
have obtained control qf the .$23,000,000

this part of their alleged, plans to form

to have duplicated Mr., Gates’ .famous
capture of . the L. & N. railroad a few
years ago.
If the control has. passed from them, the
present officers of the Tennessee Coal
and Iron company are blindly ignorant of
the fact. They are, in fact, not disturbed.

f^gTSTICK TO THE HABIT YOU’VE GOT AND ASK FOR YOUR
TICKET VIA G. H. & H. R, R.
The residents and porperty owners in
the East End are complaining bitterly
about the way the city is attending to its
part of the improvements, or, more proper-
ly, how the city is neglecting to attend
to its interest in the project. It was stated
in The Tribune on several occasions that
the property owners were complaining
about the city not providing some ar-
rangements for draining and finishing the
streets when the grade raisers completed
the grading. The contractors and grade
raising board wanted to turn over the
filled section in subdivisions, and, in fact,
agreed to divide the section east of 13th
street into, four subdivisions^ which should
be turned over to the city when finished,
or when the grade raisers finished the
grading of the streets in each subdivision.
The property owners want' the improve-
ments completed as soon as possible and
those living north of and on Market street
did not want to wait until the entire dis-
trict to the gulf was finished to have their
streets put in order. No drains have been
put' in and even with the streets graded,
which is now being hastened by the grade
raising contractors, the streets will not
drain without culverts or some other pro-
vision for carrying off the water.
It was announced in The Tribune yester-
day that two engineers in charge of City
Engineer Wells had commenced the pre-
liminary work of establishing the block,
alley and sidewalk lines in the filled dis-
trict and that commencing Monday they
would begin laying stakes. It was stated
some time ago by Cora. Austin that due
notice would be given property owners as
to where the engineers -would be on a cer-
tain day so the property owners in that
block could familiarize themselves with the
new lines and render what assistance was
needed to the city engineering force. An
effort was made this morning to get this
information as to where the engineers
would be working Monday, but neither the
commissioner of streets and public im-
provements nor the ciity engineer would
furnish the desired information.
In all matters where complaints are
made about -the city engineering depart-
ment, and many complaints have been
made, Com. Austin is usually able to dis-
cuss the subject in detail. But when favor-
able information is asked regarding the
engineering department he finds it con-
venient to refer the inquirer to the city
engineer. This morning he told a Tribune
representative to hunt up Engineer Wells
and he would give out the desired infor-
mation for. the people in the East End.
When Engineer Wells was located he was
not prepared to give out the information
and stated that the notice he announced
would be published was not ready and
would not be ready before tonight.
In surveying the East End property own-
ers will be privileged to render the city’s
engineering crops every courtesy and every
favor they choose, but it may not be well
for the taxpayers and other citizens to
ask too many questions of the city en-
gineering department.
“IVAN THE TERRIBLE.”
The New Orleans Picayune says in part:
“Mr. Mansfield’s yearly visit to New
Orleans is the red-letter event of the en-
tire' theatrical season, to which all lovers
of fine acting look forward, and last night
he inaugurated his annual engagement
here by giving a superb presentation of his
new play, ‘Ivan the Terrible,’ before a
brilliant and fashionable audience that
packed the Tulane theater to the very
doors. It is a marvelous series of stage
pictures, "reflecting with absolute accuracy
a period th Russian history that Is of great
and somber interest just now—for it was
almost exactly under the tower of Ivan the
Terrible that the Grand Duke Sergius was
slain the other day—which Mr. Mansfield
has vitalized and makes live before us.
More than that, it is a psychological study
of the mind of a senile old man, torn be-
tween fear and pride, religion and super-
stition, arrogance and repentance. The
play begins when Ivan is already an old
man, whose cruelty and blood thirstiness

Says Uncle Sam Is Getting Out of Ele-
ment Carrying Civiliair*Passengers.
Washington, D. C., Feb. 25.—Representa-
tive Humphrey of Washington, has put
on his war paint and is going after the
government transport service in the Pa-
cific. His notion is that Uncle Sam is
getting out of his element In carry
civilian passengers and all sorts of freight
in government boats to the everlasting
detriment of Puget Sound shipping in-
terests.
In order to start the game, Mr. Humph-
rey Jias introduced in the house a resolu-
tion which asks the secretary of war all
sorts, of questions.
Mr. JIumphrey hopes., in this way to
procure, sufficient ammunition for an at-
tack .upon the whole Pacific transport
service. He, is going to try and stop the
government yessels from carrying civil-
ians, or “from carrying supplies. This

gathering last night about 12 o’clock. He
noticed something following him, and,
thanking it was a ’dog, paid little attention
until it came within a few feet of him.
It proved to be a hog, and a lively chase
took place, forcing the young man to climb
over a fence for safety. The animal
jumped on the fence and bit viciously at
Mr. Wright, who secured clubs and beat
the hog off until he reached home. When
he entered the door he was nearly ex-
hausted.

There as tfard'ly a noble, even among those
of his court, whom he has not robbed of
child or wife or father or brother. In an
excess of fury he has even slain his own
son. Fearing that he has not long to live,
he has determined to abdicate his throne,
retire to a religious order, and devote the
balance of his life to making his peace,
with heaven. To this end he has sum-
moned his nobles, and ordered them to
choose from, amongst their numbers, a suc-
cessor to him. The nobles debate the ques-
tion, and, unable to agree upon a suitable
candidate for the exalted position, and
fearing the danger of choosing rulers while
the country is at war, decide to disobey
the..czar’s orders, and to beseech him to
retain the crown, . They repair to the
palace, where they find Ivan mumbling his
beads, and crying .at one moment how he

Boyars’ entreaty that he keep the crown
he assents, and forthwith starts out on

that his sins' are to be remembered, no
more against Mm, and that even heaven
hardly dare record them against him.

San Angelo, Tex., Feb. 24.—The various
towns in this portion of western Texas
are anxiously awaiting the action of the
Santa Fe Railway, company with refer-
ence to the proposed extension of the
system from Texas to connect with the
line in New Mexico, forming a direct
route to California. It Is known that the
extension will be started this year, but
from what point has not been learned,
and each town along the western branch
of the Gulf, Colorado and Santa b e rail-
way is earnestly hoping that it may be
the lucky one. San Angelo, Brownwood,
Coleman and Ballinger have each reasons
for thinking thq.t it will be the point
from which the extnsion will be made.
All the towns in this section are directly
interested in this building onward of the
Santa Fe, as it will indirectly benefit all
the smaller towns and help to settle up
the country.
You can see the difference.

Nuts for nearly three years,” says a cor-
respondent, “and I am happy to say that
I am well pleased with the result of the
experiment, for such it has been.
“Seeing your advertisement in almost
all of the periodicals, I for a long time
looked upon it as a hoax. But after
years of suffering with gaseous and bitter
eructations from my stomach, together,
with more or less loss of appetite and
flesh, I concluded to try Grape-Nuts food
for a little time and note the result.
“I found it delicious, and it was not
long till I began to experience the bene-
ficial effects. My stomach resumed its
normal state, the eructations and bitter-
ness both ceased and I have gained all
my lost weight back.
“I am so well satisfied with the result
that so long as I may live and retain my
reason Grape-Nuts shall constitute quite
a portion of my daily food.” Name given

Hammond -when Gustav H. Tackman and
Miss Annie Hoey, both of Chicago, ob-
tained a license to wred. The ceremony
was performed by City Judge McMahon.
The groom bestowed a $2 fee on the tier
of the knot. Then the bride coyly in-
quired:
“But the stamps, judge? They told us
that if we were married in Hammond we
would get trading stamps.”
Judge McMahon sought to explain that
a joke had been perpetrated, but finding
Mrs. Tackfan weeping and dreadfully in
earnest, he handed back the $2 with his
blessing.
