Han Miguel Is Hurn.d.
San Francisco, Oct. U4.—San Miguel,
a town of about 1,50U inhabitants, in
San Luis Obispo county, is the center
of a rich agricultural district Tne
town has suffered a loss by the in
excess of S9uO,OUO.
While he is no' pleased with present
prices, Mr. Campliell is not ijultting
the cattle feeding business, u.s lie went
to Mulvune to arrange for the feeding
of a bunch of .10(1 steers. Tiie cattle
have arrived and will lie put in the
feed lots at once.
"There is nothing very encouraging
about the outlook," said Mr. Campbell,
"but I aui going to try ir. I believe
the pricv of beef cattle will come up
liefore spring. If it were not for this
belief I should not feed this winter.
The corn to fatten tlieni is now costing
■15 cents a bushel, but I believe it will
oe a little lower near the lirst of tiie
,\e.ir. There is a iijg corn yield in tho
northern part of the state which is not
yet, available, and this keens up the
price here. As soon as this northern
corn begins to come upon the market
it will, I think, result in reducing the
price here to the neighborhood of 1(1
cents, anil this will make quite a dif-
ference to feeders.*
Memphis, Tenn., Oor. 3t.—A mile In
l:."iC!i was made by Dan Patch at the
Memphis Trotting Association's track
iu u trial ngainst time. Tho pacer
dipped three-fourths of a second from
the world's record of 1:.*>7, by Prince
Alert, and lowered his own rvuord by
"I?4 seconds.
Horse owners, who stood about the
track before Ihe starter's stand, had
caught tho time with their own
watches and before the oflleinl ti 111
was flashed out across the track the;
set up a shout and threw hats and caps
high into the air. The shout
caught up by the people iu the grand-
tand, the spaee before it and on tin
luli-hoiise grounds, and the victory of
the new pacing Idol was proclaimed iu
thouls of applause that reachud their
linwix as Driver M. C. McIIenry pull
up before the judges' stand and doflfed
his hat in acknowledgement of the ac-
clamation.
The trial was inude with two run-
ner. to set the pace, the sulky pn-
eding the pacer carrying a canvas
strip between the wheels. The quar
tor was reached in 29 seconds, the half
58 and tho three-quarters ]>ole in
1:27!(. As the horses s vung into the
stretch Dan Patch was pushing tlie
forward runner so closely that •Parcel
% hand's breadth intervened between
his nose and tlio back of the driver in
the forward sulky.
The performance of Dau Patch
setting a new world's rceord was a
urprise even to his most ardent ad-
mirers. The betting on tli# trial was
3 to 5 that he would not beat his own
record of 1:59 He went the mile with
so little apparent exertion that liis ad-
mirers are predicting tiiat ho will still
further lower the world's record should
he start against it with weather and
track conditions as favorable as tliey
were here.

Washington, Oct. 20. — While Presi-
dent Roosevelt designated in his proc-
lamation calling congress into extra-
ordinary session only tho question of
Cuban reciprocity for consideration, it

bama lias indicated his intention of

the canal question. Mr. Morgan will
endeavor to show that the Panama

construct the canal immediately by tlio
Nicaragua!! route.

uioncy on hand.

Limes. M. D., have gone before Mr.
George E. Moore, Notary Public, and
haye sworn and subscribed to written
L'ta.teir.ents confirming the story of the
awful illness and subsequent cure c*
the little son of Mr. and Mrs. Mc-
Bride.
Dr. Limes Is particularly emphatic
In his statement, and there does not
cow seem to be any room for doubt as
to the fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills,
and nothing else, saved the little boy.
He was so bad that he had Epileptic
spells which seized him with Increas-
ing frequency. Ho was semi paralyzed
la the right side, and his uilnd was
oadly affected.
In their sworn statement, Mr. and
Mrs. McBride say:
'The very day we began to use
Dodd's Kidney Pills our boy had tweu-
tv-soven of these Epileptic spells or
fits. In less than a week he ceased
having them entirely."
The case has caused a great sensa-
tion in the neighborhood. The sworn
statements have confirmed the wholo
story.
Good Definition of "Luck."
Here Is Max O'Rell's definition cf
'luck": "Luck means rising at Eix
o'clock in the morning, living on u
dollar a day if you earn two, minding
your own business and not meddling
with other people's. Luck means ap-
pointments you have never failed to
keep, the trains you have never failed
to catch. Luck means trusting in God
and your own resources."

the old owls for their offspring: Thir-
ty-seven rats, fifty-nine mice, 118

to Arlstippus: "You a philosopher and
be so base as to throw yourself at a
tyrant's feet to get a suit!" Arlstippus
answered: "The fault is not mine,
but the fault Is In Dlonyslus, who
carries his ears In his feet."
BUSY DOCTOR
Sometimes Overlooks a Point.
The physician Is such a busy man
that he sometimes overlooks a valu-
able point to which his attention may
be called by an intelligent patient
who is a thinker.
About a year ago my attention
was called to Grapo-Nuts by one of
my patients," says a physician of Cin-
cinnati.
At the time my own health waa
bad and I was pretty well rundown
but I saw in a minute that the theo-
ries behind Grape-Nuts were perfect
and if the food was all that waa
claimed for It it was a perfect food
so I commenced to use Grape-Nuts
with warm milk twice a day and iu a
short time began to improve In every
way. and now I am much stronger,
feel 50% better and weigh more than
ever did in my life.
"I know that all of this good is due
to Grape-Nut* and I am firmly con-
vinced that the claims made for the
food are true. I have recommended
and still recommend the food to a
great many of my patients with splen-
did result!, and in some cases the im-
provement of patients on this tine
food ha* been wonderful.
"As a brain and nervo food, In fact
as • general food, Grape-Nuts stands
alone." Name given by Postum Co.,
Battle Creek, Mich.
