Work to Commence at Once on an Up-
to-date factoru.
Arrangements have been consu-
mated whereby work will begin at an
early date on the erection of an ice
plant in Stillwater, the necessary
equipment, having been ordered by a
newly established firm with T. E.
Lahmsn, of Franklin Grove, III.,
president; S. \V. Reiser, of this city,
vice-president, and Charles E. I.ah-
inan. of this city, secretary and
treasurer. Tho site has not yet been
secured but will be by the time the
machinery reaches here and the gen-
tlemen expcct to have the plant com-
pleted within sixty days from the
present i'ate. It will have a capacity
of ten tons a day with sufficient
power for twenty tons a day.
The undertaking is timely, for the
Idea i f doing without ice or else haul I

II Duel With Guns.
John Dunbar last Thur.- 'lay inor:iiiv_ i
at 0 a. in., In tho Cre imery re*.au-'
rant ut Et Ueno, shot and killed John !
Fuller, alias John Fisher, of Sioux i
City, Iowa. Fuller is about thirty
yea:-a old ami u professional gambler,!
as la Dunbar. They had beoti gamh-1
ling during the night and had evi-
dently l-'on lar-> winners. Dunhari
havln j t iie money, Fuller entered tho
restaur; nt and asked Dunbar for $10,
Dunbar said "(}<> away: you are
drunk. I will not give you ncent,"
In nl> ut thirty minute'< Fuller cam*
back, approached t ie table where
Don law- nnd hU frionds were eating
und said: "Well i;et ready for u
light" and pulled hi* gon. Dunbar
said: "If this is to bo a gun light,
here I go," and they began blazing
away at each other. Fuller fired four
shots nnd Dunbar five, two took
elect both in Fuller, one in the heart
and the other through the hips. Ful-
ler was killed instantly. Dunbar was
arrested, and at the coroner's inquest
the plea of self-defense seemed to be
strong but the coroner's jury held
hi in before the grand jury.
What Might Have Been.
When the Spanish war closed we
could have occupied the most envia-
ble position ever held by any nation
sinco creation's dawn, and all wo had
to do was to do that which wo owed
it to ourselves to uo, and that was to
say to both the Cubans aud the Fili-
pinos, "The Spaniards are beaten;
your chain-are broken; you helped
as to do tlii-i thing; now Het up any
sort of government you want, and we
will make the other nations of the
earth keep their huuds o.T of you or
we will hoot them off." [Applause.]

fl SMflLL-POX REMEDY.
It Is Harmless When Taken by a Well Per*
son, and Cures Scarlet Fever.
We are indebted to one of our old
citizens for tho following prevention
and euro of smnll-pox. He soys that
he has seen the efficacy of the remedy
fully tested and knows that it will
accomplish everything that is
claimed for it.
\\ hen Jenner discovered cow-pox
in England, the world of science
hurled an avalanche of fame upon
his head, but when the most scien-
tific school of medicine in the world,
that of Paris, published this recipe
n i a panacea for small-pox, it past un-
heeded. It is U3 unfailing as fate and
conquers in every instance; it is
harmless when taken by u well per-
son; it will also cure scarlet fever.
Here is the recipe as I have used
it, and cu.- 'd my children of sear-
lot fever. Here it is as I have used
it to cure the small-pox. When
le. . d physician! said the patient
must die, it cured :
Sulphate of zinc, I grain ; foxglove
(di,-il alls;, 1 grain ; "half .tea spoon
fuli I fu_;m'; mix with two tahio
sp m fulls of water. When tlior-
•••!chly mix, : ad i 1 of water,
fake u poon full every hour; either
disease will disappear iy 12 hours.
For a child, smaller doses, according
t'1 If counties v, uld compel
th- ir phy - to ti; • this thero
wiuhl bo no i- lofpe-' houses. If
)' v«hi i.dviee i-,d experience tuo
this forth ' (erriblc disease.—West
