A million of dollars are sepnt every year upon the game of baseball, but large as this sum is, it cannot begin to equal the amount spent by people in search of health. There is a sure method of ob- taining strength, and it is not a costly one. We urge those who have spent much and lost hope to try Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. It strengthens the stom- ach, makes digestion easy and natural, and cures dyspepsia, constipation, bil- iousness and w.ak kidneya. RUNAWAY BOYS CAUGHT. Four DuliHli Younu-aterH Sent Back to Their ' I*aren*H. Tommy Morris, son of Ben Morris, of Duluth, and formerly of this city, ran away from "home a week ago and yes- terday was apprehended by Detective Campbell. He was sent home on a late train last night. Tommy is but twelve years of age, but he has seen a good deal of the world, and tolti the Globe reporter last night at the central station that he thinks he is fully capable of "paddling his own canoe." and don't see why his parents should be worried about him. He left home in company with four other boys, all about his age, and. they had made quite a tour of the state since leaving Duluth. The police here learned that they were at Lake City Friday and traced they to this city, where they were rounded up yesterday afternoon at the public bath house. While here, Tommy borrowed a boot- black's outfit to throw the police off their guard. He is a cool little fellow and did not seem at att worried over his arrest. He says that they tiave been riding in box cars and'"'on the "blind baggage," and have lived. on saloon lunches most of the time. Tommy's companions were sent back on the same train. . «^ FIRST REGIMENT BACK. Kad a Pleasant Time at Kneamji- nient.

United States Senator Cushman K. Davis, when a very young man, climbed the hignway pines with the same atfterity that in later years took him up the lad- der of fame. The Senior L'nited States stna.tor from Minnesota, forty-six years ago, was the .lupfirintendent of a short 15no of -telegraph wire, extending from Waukesha to Milwaukee and Whitewater, Wis. In the days of primitive civilization vi the West the telegraph system waa very insignificant, and the now.chairman 01" the senate. foreign relations commit- tee frequently found it necessary to "shin" up one of the trees along "the road to make repairs. Indeed, a break In the line was quite common, and not an unwelcome event, especially in mellon time, but in the winter it was hardly so pleasant. Senator Davis, during his year's service at the craft, became an expert upc-rator and eouid "'receive" or "send" with the fastest men in the Mil- waukee office. It was only recently that it leaked cut that Senator Davis spent one of the early years of his life at the key. But Sena- tor Davis has not forgotten it, and when asked regarding his craft he smiled as he recalled the events of nearly half a century ago, when he was, operator, re- pair man, superintendent and a few oth- er things. The sending of a message by wire in those days was a serious matter, and the telegraph was by no means the facility that it is today. To send a tele- gram in the fifties was regarded in the same light as writing a letter when post- age was 10 cents. The National Association of Teleg- raphers lost no time in making Senator Davis an honorary member when the fact of his early service at the key ba- came known. He has also been invited to deliver one of the principal speeches at the annual meeting of the National as- sociation, to be helJ in St. Paul during the autumn. Senator Davis' first acquaintance with the telegraph was in his father's store at Waukesha. Wis. The operator had Ms office in the back of the store, and Sena- tor Davis' father, who is now living with the senator, a rugged old gentle- man of ninety, likes to discuss the inci- dents of his distinguished son's service. The mysterious tich of the sounder had a peculiar fascination for Senator Davis when a boy, and he, in company with other village juveniles, often stood with open mouth drinking in every movement Of the man at the key. A little later tfi\j operator, who was a young man, took a fancy to the "storekeeper's boy,'': and: volunteered to teach young Davis the alphabet. Within a year the operator was transferred to another more im- portant station, and, upon his recom- mendation, "Cush" Davis was given the job. The bright spots in the young op- erator's year as a telegraph operator were the frequent breaks in the line. When- ever the instrument would refuse to transmit the sound, it was necessary for the future Gopher state senator to hire a livery rig and take one of his boy friends ialong the line until the break was found.. At certain..times of the year these trips were, delightful, and Senator Davis recalls them with a great deal of satisfaction, especially when he calls to memory boys who were frequently with him on these trips, some of whom have become wealthy and influential men in the land, two having been his colleagues in the halls of congress. Railroads and telegraph lines were op- erated separately in those days, and the line strung along the old-fashioned high- way. Whenever an accident occurred on the road the conductor would start out to hunt up the operator of the near- est telegraph station. Senator Davis never sees a repair man go up a. tele- graph pole with his spikes, but he smiles and thinks of the many times that he climbed up the trunk of a tree or a pole on the same errand. Senator Davis remained but a year at the key, but nearly ten years later, dur- ing, the Civil war,. he had occasion to send a message from Pralrleville to Wall Bluff, Wis. If the occasion demanded, he could today send a message to Presi- dent McKinley with his own hand. The senator was' fovnd by the Globe yesterday enjoying his spacious lawn* and chatted very freely with a reporter of his experiences. "I do not regret in the least," he said, "having learned telegraphy. Indeed, I believe that every young man should start out in life with some craft. Indeed, if I were to start over again, I know I would not have done differently than I did. The manual training," taught in our schools is an ex- cellent thing for the young men of our land. I am a firm believer in modern education, and think the department of manual training a most useful one to the young men of the nation." A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY. A. Strong; Statement From Fred XuMsbauntcr, Superintendent of St. Paul Parks. Como Park, St. Paul, Minn., July 25 1900.—T0 Whom It May Concern: I was afflicted with a rheumatic pain in my right arm, and on account of the terrible suffering could not sleep for ten nights in succession. The pains were so intense that I could not use my arm at all. A friend of mine whom I met on the Como car one evening told me tHat there was no need of anybody having rheu- matic pains, and that he knew of a rem- edy which would cure it without fail As I was under the care of a good doctor 1 was impressed that everything was done that possibly could be done, so I did not pay much attention to the conversation My friend, seeing the intense pain I was suffering, unbeknown to me, sent Mr Edward F. Christian with a bottle of his wonderful Yalta Remedy, and after the first application I enjoyed a good night's rest, and. with two more applications I am pleased to say, the pains entirely dis- appeared. I cannot find words adequately to de- scribe the efficacy, of this wonderful remedy. It works like magic' and I earnestly recommend it to a suffering public; am sure that nothing like it on earth can be found of equal benefit to those afflicted with Rheumatism in all its worst forms. Any information with re- gard to my case will be cheerfully given to all who wish to call on me at my res- idence in Como Park. Respectfully FRED NUSSBAUMER, Superintendent of St. Paul Parks.

The following order from the war de- partment was received yesterday at the office of the resident United States en- gineer: In pursuance of the authority conferred ?X> the *<* o? congress, approved May 9, l? 00, entitled "An act authorizing the sec- retary pf war to make regulations gov- erning the runnning of loose logs, steam- boats and rafts on certain rivers and m<l'* *he- '©"©win* regulations are prescribed for the St. Croix river, above Lake St. Croix, Wisconsin and Minnesota, a navigable waterway of the United States, whereon the floating of loose tim- ber and logs and sack rafts of timber and logs is the principal m«thod of naviga- tion : 1- The logging and lumber interests shall be permitted to use in such reason- able manner as may be necessary the St. Croix river, above Lake St. Croix except upon Decoration day, July 4 and during the month of August. 2. The steamboats shall have sole use of the river above Lake St. Croix, and of the entire natural flow of water therein, on Decoration day, July 4 and during every day in the month of August: Pro- vided. That if on the Ist day of August any logs are within the storage booms and out of the main steamboat channel, such logs may be handled in the usual manner, if this can be done without in- terference with steamboat navigation. 3. From the opening &f navigation to the Ist day of September, all logging op- eration shall be so conducted as to keep the river free from jams of logs In the main steamboat channel, so that steam- ers may run at any time that there is sufficient water to accommodate both interests. After the Ist day of Septem- ber, the logging and lumber interests are permitted to conduct their operations as may best suit their needs, even to the extent of causing jams of logs in the river. These regulations, unless modified, shall remain in force until Dec. 21, 1900. —Elihu Root, : Secretary 6f War. War department, July 19, 1900. DID NOT LIKE TOWN LIFE THAT IS WHY THOMAS M'NALGH- TOX KILLED HIMSELF. Thomas McNaughton, of Newport, seventy-six years old, committed suicide by jumping into the Mississippi river near that place yesterday morning. The body was recovered in the afternoon a short distance from where McNaughton had been seen earlier in the day. There seems r.o doubt that the act was premeditated. His coat and hat were found weighted down by a rock on the river bank, and the fact that he made a special request for an early breakfast, telling hla family that he was going to go up the river for a stroll, together with the fact that he had of late been despon- dent over the fact that he was opposed by hl9 family In his deaire to remain on his farm In Woodbury township, makes It appear beyond a doubt that he had deliberately planned to take his life. It was about 6 o'clock when he left home and he was seen about half au hour later by a Mrs. Banders, who lives near PIBLD, SCHLICKjgCQ. | FIELD, SCHLICK & CO. | FIELD, SCHLICK 6t CO. | FIELD, SCHLICK 6c CO.

Millions for Baseball.

A million of dollars are sepnt everyyear upon the game of baseball, but largeas this sum is, it cannot begin to equalthe amount spent by people in search ofhealth. There is a sure method of ob-taining strength, and it is not a costlyone. We urge those who have spentmuch and lost hope to try Hostetter'sStomach Bitters. It strengthens the stom-ach, makes digestion easy and natural,and cures dyspepsia, constipation, bil-iousness and w.ak kidneya.

\u25a0ill BRASSMINNESOTA'S SENIOR SENATOR IS

A TELEORAPHER OF VET-ERAN SERVICE

HE COULD "SEND" HIMSELF

If It Became Necessary to Hnrry

a Message on mid the Oper-

ator Was Out Some-where.

United States Senator Cushman K.Davis, when a very young man, climbedthe hignway pines with the same atfteritythat in later years took him up the lad-der of fame. The Senior L'nited Statesstna.tor from Minnesota, forty-six yearsago, was the .lupfirintendent of a short15no of -telegraph wire, extending fromWaukesha to Milwaukee and Whitewater,Wis. In the days of primitive civilizationvi the West the telegraph system waavery insignificant, and the now.chairman01" the senate. foreign relations commit-tee frequently found it necessary to"shin" up one of the trees along "theroad to make repairs. Indeed, a breakIn the line was quite common, and not

an unwelcome event, especially in mellontime, but in the winter it was hardly sopleasant. Senator Davis, during hisyear's service at the craft, became anexpert upc-rator and eouid "'receive" or"send" with the fastest men in the Mil-waukee office.

It was only recently that it leaked cutthat Senator Davis spent one of the earlyyears of his life at the key. But Sena-tor Davis has not forgotten it, and whenasked regarding his craft he smiled ashe recalled the events of nearly half acentury ago, when he was, operator, re-pair man, superintendent and a few oth-er things. The sending of a message bywire in those days was a serious matter,and the telegraph was by no means thefacility that it is today. To send a tele-gram in the fifties was regarded in thesame light as writing a letter when post-age was 10 cents.

The National Association of Teleg-raphers lost no time in making SenatorDavis an honorary member when thefact of his early service at the key ba-came known. He has also been invitedto deliver one of the principal speechesat the annual meeting of the National as-sociation, to be helJ in St. Paul duringthe autumn.

Senator Davis' first acquaintance withthe telegraph was in his father's storeat Waukesha. Wis. The operator had Msoffice in the back of the store, and Sena-tor Davis' father, who is now livingwith the senator, a rugged old gentle-man of ninety, likes to discuss the inci-dents of his distinguished son's service.The mysterious tich of the sounder had apeculiar fascination for Senator Daviswhen a boy, and he, in company withother village juveniles, often stood withopen mouth drinking in every movementOf the man at the key. A little later tfi\joperator, who was a young man, took afancy to the "storekeeper's boy,'': and:volunteered to teach young Davis thealphabet. Within a year the operatorwas transferred to another more im-portant station, and, upon his recom-mendation, "Cush" Davis was given thejob. The bright spots in the young op-erator's year as a telegraph operator werethe frequent breaks in the line. When-ever the instrument would refuse totransmit the sound, it was necessary forthe future Gopher state senator to hirea livery rig and take one of his boyfriends ialong the line until the breakwas found.. At certain..times of the yearthese trips were, delightful, and SenatorDavis recalls them with a great deal ofsatisfaction, especially when he calls tomemory boys who were frequently withhim on these trips, some of whom havebecome wealthy and influential men inthe land, two having been his colleaguesin the halls of congress.

Railroads and telegraph lines were op-erated separately in those days, and theline strung along the old-fashioned high-way. Whenever an accident occurredon the road the conductor would startout to hunt up the operator of the near-est telegraph station. Senator Davisnever sees a repair man go up a. tele-graph pole with his spikes, but he smilesand thinks of the many times that heclimbed up the trunk of a tree or a poleon the same errand.

Senator Davis remained but a year atthe key, but nearly ten years later, dur-ing, the Civil war,. he had occasion tosend a message from Pralrleville to WallBluff, Wis. If the occasion demanded,he could today send a message to Presi-dent McKinley with his own hand.

The senator was' fovnd by the Globeyesterday enjoying his spacious lawn*and chatted very freely with a reporterof his experiences. "I do not regret inthe least," he said, "having learnedtelegraphy. Indeed, I believe that everyyoung man should start out in life withsome craft. Indeed, if I were to startover again, I know I would not havedone differently than I did. The manualtraining," taught in our schools is an ex-cellent thing for the young men of ourland. I am a firm believer in moderneducation, and think the department ofmanual training a most useful one to theyoung men of the nation."

A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY.A. Strong; Statement From Fred

XuMsbauntcr, Superintendent ofSt. Paul Parks.

Como Park, St. Paul, Minn., July 251900.—T0 Whom It May Concern:I was afflicted with a rheumatic pain

in my right arm, and on account of theterrible suffering could not sleep for tennights in succession. The pains wereso intense that I could not use my armat all.

A friend of mine whom I met on theComo car one evening told me tHat therewas no need of anybody having rheu-matic pains, and that he knew of a rem-edy which would cure it without fail AsI was under the care of a good doctor 1was impressed that everything was donethat possibly could be done, so I did notpay much attention to the conversationMy friend, seeing the intense pain I wassuffering, unbeknown to me, sent MrEdward F. Christian with a bottle of hiswonderful Yalta Remedy, and after thefirst application I enjoyed a good night'srest, and. with two more applications Iam pleased to say, the pains entirely dis-appeared.I cannot find words adequately to de-

scribe the efficacy, of this wonderfulremedy. It works like magic' and Iearnestly recommend it to a sufferingpublic; am sure that nothing like it onearth can be found of equal benefit tothose afflicted with Rheumatism in all itsworst forms. Any information with re-gard to my case will be cheerfully givento all who wish to call on me at my res-idence in Como Park. Respectfully

seventy-six years old, committed suicideby jumping into the Mississippi rivernear that place yesterday morning. Thebody was recovered in the afternoon ashort distance from where McNaughtonhad been seen earlier in the day.

His coat and hat werefound weighted down by a rock on theriver bank, and the fact that he made aspecial request for an early breakfast,telling hla family that he was going to goup the river for a stroll, together withthe fact that he had of late been despon-dent over the fact that he was opposedby hl9 family In his deaire to remain onhis farm In Woodbury township, makesIt appear beyond a doubt that he haddeliberately planned to take his life.

It was about 6 o'clock when he lefthome and he was seen about half au hourlater by a Mrs. Banders, who lives near
