schedule, arrlrln8r on the Chicago, Mil
waukee & St. Paul at 2:2. after an un
eventful run from Winona, where a large
crowd had listened to hlrri and. cheered
him for over five minutes. On the
run up a few minutes were given to the
people at Lake City, whose cheers brought
out a hearty expression of thanks from
the President.
As the train pulled through the St. Paul
yards to ttie Union Depot. Battery A of
the Minnesota "National Guard, stationed
on the other side of the river, boomed out
the Presidential salute, in which the en
gines in the yards and the strong lungs

Address to Legislature.
At the Capitol, the House and Senate, In
joint session, received the President with
cheers, 'thrice repeated. Previous to his
arrival Archbishop Ireland had delivered a
brief and eloquent prayer for the prosper
ity of the Nation and Its Chief Executive,
and as soon as the Legislators were seat
ed, after greeting the President, Speaker
Dabcock introduced -him in a few well
chosen sentences.
President Roosevelt spoke at somo
length on his well-known views as to good
citizenship.
In the executive chamber a brief recep
tion was held, the President being Intro
duced to many of the state officers and
leaders of the Legislature and others. A
large platform had been erected at the
east entrance to the Capitol, where many
thousands held their places for over two
hours before the arrival of the President,
and stood In place through the time of
his speech Inside the Capitol and during
his remarks outside. Governor Van Sant
introduced the President almost imme
diately after his appearance on the stand,
although nearly five minutes had to elapse
before the cheering that greeted the ap
pearance of the President's well-known
figure and features had subsided.
Multiply the Itace.
i The President spoke on "Good Cltlzen
ishlp," following the general lines of his
.previous address to the Legislature. The
Nation, he said, could be no better than
the individuals who composed It, and, if
we wished for a strong and progressive
Nation, we must cultivate strength and
individuality among our citizens.
He referred to his now famous letter on
"Race Suicide," stating that while the let
ter had attracted more attention than he
Imagined It would, yet he was glad of It.
He reaffirmed In strong terms the senti
ment be had therein expressed and be
lieved that the discussion which had been
started would have a marked effect upon
the race. We were, he said, by the amal
gamation of foreign nationalities, the In
termarriage of the sturdy forcjgn immi
grants who had sought our shores, evolv
ing a new race the American.
He referred to the great sums being
spent by the Western States In the educa
tion of Young America, and commended
It, but added that this public school edu
cation must be supplemented by the edu
cation of the home. Home influences
counted for much. No matter how much
a father might seek to instill wise pre
cepts Into the mind ot his child. It he did
not re-enforce these precepts with his own
good example, be could not expect his
children to become good citizens. Fur
thermore, we must not allow our chil
dren to be reared In the lap of luxury. Put
them out In the world to struggle for
themselves and thus gain an education In
the rough school of experience that will
teach them to be strong, to be Independ
ent and to be manly. Maintain a high
standard of individuality and science and
the Nation will never deteriorate.
From the Capitol the entire party was
enven tnrougn a small port of the resi
dence section, lack ot time limiting the
drive, and at the corner of Selby avenue
and Dale streets special cars were in
watting and the President's party was
taken through the residence section that
connects St. Paul and Minneapolis, to the
xticouet Hotel. .Minneapolis, where to

CARRIED NBY MOSQUITOES
Proof That Yellow Fever la Imported
by Insect on Board Ship.
WASHINGTON, "April 4. The Marine
Hospital Service has received a report
from Assistant Surgeon-General Grubrw,
who Is stationed at the Gulf quarantine
station, giving the result of the Inspection
of vessels arriving from ports liable to be
Infected with yellow-fever germs. From
June to November. l&K. 82 vessels were in
spected, and In three Instances Infected
motqultoes were found.
Surgeon-General Grubbs draws the fol
lowing deductions from his investigations:
First, that mosquitoes can come aboard
a vessel under favorable conditions when
the vessel is riot far from shore; second.
that stegomyla can be carried from Mexi
can or West Indian ports to those of our
Gulf states; third, that mosquitoes can
board a vessel lying at anchor half a mile
or less from shore, being conveyed by the
open lighter; and. finally, that a vessel
moored a short distance from land may
become Infected with yellow fever, our old
beliefs to the contrary notwithstanding.

PEACE ON THE WABASH
COIIPATT COXCEDES DEXATD9 OF
EMPLOYES.
Advance of Wacea Given Trainmen,
Conductors, Firemen and Yardmen
Better Conditions of Work,
ST. LOUIS. April 4. After four months
ot controversy between the employes ot
(he Wabash road and the officials of that
ystem, during which, at one time a strike
was imminent and was only prevented
by an Injunction restraining the employes
from vacating their position, which In
junction was dissolved last Wednesday,
the differences were finally adjusted and
the controversy cffectuil.y and satisfac
torily settled this evening. The officials
or the brotherhoods representing the em
ployes declare, the cettkment is eminently
satisfactory and Is a sweeping victory for
organized labor. The Wabash officials
declare that all differences with the em.
ployes have been finally terminated In a
satisfactory manner, and that their .fu
ture relations In ail probability will be
most, narmjaious.
Following are the main-points embraced
in the settlement:
Twelve per cent increase for conduc
tors, brakemcn and baggagemen in the
passenger service, and 15 per cent for
conductors and brakemen In the freight
service, over tilt rates which existed Jan
uary 1, IhB. west of .the Mississippi River.
For the firemen, increases Were grant-
ed cm th f?anaritcn itn in nfvM-rinnr
with the Canada Southern division of the
Michigan Central. TJn "the lines In the lne rew lork navy-yard, upon the eject
United States material increases and tm- pent from that yard yesterday of a walk.
proveraent in the working conditions were ,
granted the firemen. East ot the Missis
sippi River the rates will be brought up
to this same .standard, when competing
lines in the same territory grant similar
increases. The various- yardmen receive
a substantial increase, varying in differ
ent localities. !
There Is an entire revision of rules ap
plying to all classes of train service. This
was the main bone ot contention, and
was granttd in its entirety.
Ever since the Injunction was dissolved
last Wednesday morning the counsel for
both sides have been In almost continu
ous conference, and every -effort was put
forth to reach an amicable settlement.
Both sides have displayed the greatest
fairness In considering these differences,
and both were anxious from the start to
reach a final conclusion without radical
action. All ot the day was occupied In
conference, and at S o'clock the matter
was practically settled, and it remained
only for the signatures to be affixed to
officially terminate the trouble. By 8
o'clock tonight the papers had been signed
and the' Wabash wage controversy was
at an end.
Just prior to the dissolution of the In
junction, the issuance of which be was
largely Instrumental in obtaining. Presi
dent Ramsay was called to Cairo, Egypt,
to the bedside of bis daughter, who is ill.
During his absence H. W. Ashley has
been -acting head of the eystem. Mr. Ash
ley said tonight: .
"The settlement is entirely satisfactory
to the Wabash Railroad Company ex
cept In a few unimportant details, but
they were not of enough moment to cause
a delay In-coming to an agreement. There
is now no reason why the relations be
tween the Wabash Company and Its em
ployes should not be perfectly harmo
nious." Grand Master Hannahan. of the firemen,
said tonight:
"The result of this controversy and set
tlement has unquestionably elevated labor
to a higher plane in the business world
than any other controversy that has ever
taken place during the existence vt rail
road organizations. 1 am! glad we were
able to adjust our differences without re
sorting to forcible means."
Vice-Grand Master W. G. Lee. of tne
Trainmen's Union:
This is unquestionably one of the
greatest victories that labor has ever
won. and. while our committees have
been compelled to stay here several
months, they feel fully repaid. This set
tlement proves conclusively mat cooi.
calm deliberation will accomplish more
than radical action."
Grand Master Hannahan will leave to
morrow for Chicago to meet the -grievance
committee ot the Illinois Central
firemen.
Vice-Grand Master Lee will leave to
morrow for Dcwer to confer with the
grievance committee ot the trainmen, of
the Colorado Midland ana Colorado ana
Southern roads.
One of- the points which the employes
scored waa the acknowledgment that the
Illinois Central and the Chicago & Alton
were competing lines. This had been
previously denied by President Ramsey.
Tne discontinuance of the double-header
system is another point.

CHICAGO, April 4. The strike, of
steamboat firemen, which has delayed
grainladen vessels from leaving port for
several days, took on a new shape today.

tion ot the canal treaty, as has been
stated. It Is said that be lives in a suburb

Nevertheless. Information comes from
Bogota that ther are some very bitter

champions. Information Is lacking In
Washington which will show lust who

thus early to make a poll which will In

It is expected that the Congressional
delegations from the States ot Antloqula
and Cauca will be favorably disposed,
owing to the geographical location of
these two states with respect to the canal.

PARIS. April 4. It Is retorted that the

a considerable part In the present bitter
political controversy before the Municipal
Council aroused by the question of ex

the report that the Rockefellers control
the concern, the letter says:

There is no disputing the fact that

the stomach. Happy the housewife who
can please her husband's auoetite with
well cooked food for the table. Many 4
man is grouchy, ugly, nervous, suffering
from distress after eating, heart palpi
tation, and all through the overworked
stomach. No chain la stiougei than its
weakest link. No man is stronger than
his stomach. If the proper elements in
the food are not taken up by the blood
in the stomach and earned to the vital
organs of the body, one's health breaks
down and one leaves the gates open for
the entrance of disease germs. The
germs of typhoid fever, grip, malaria,
pneumonia and consumption cannot pass

NA.TTOB THE PHYSICIAN.
Nature is the real physician in
such cases, for Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief
consulting physician to the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo,
N. Y., years ago discovered that certain
herbs and roots made into an extract,
without the use of alcohol, was the
very best means of outtintr the stom
ach, blood and vital organs into prop
er condition. His Dr. Pierce's Gold
en Medical Discovery helps the as
similation of the food in the stomach,
assists the blood in taking up the proper
elements from the food, helps the liver
into activity, thereby throwing out the
poisons in the blood and vitalizing the
whole system. This assimilation helps
in the oxidation of the red blood cor
puscles, the poisons in the system are
eliminated, the heart gets the right kind
of blood and the person feels invigorated
and stronger in consequence. As a tis
sue .builder it is far preferable to cod
liver oil or any alcoholic compounds or
tonics, because it gives the blood and
the tissues the food elements thev re
quire and maintains a person's nutrition
by enabling him to eat, retain, digest
and assimilate nutritious food. ' It over
comes the gastric irritability and symp
toms of indigestion. Because of the
good effects from using Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery upon nutri
tion and tne building up of tne tissues,
catarrh, consumption, weakness or de
bility and symptoms of fever, night
sweats, headaches, etc., disappear.
TRS CTTsXN OP LIFE.
Tttch of the chief organs of the bodv
Is a link in the chain of life. A chain is
no stronger than its weakest link, the
body no stronger than its weakest or
gan. If there is weakness of heart or
lungs, liver or kidneys, there is a weak
link in tne cnatn ot me -wnicn may
snap at any time. Often this so-called
"weakness" is caused by lack of nutri
tion, the result of disease of the stomach.
Diseases of the stomach and its allied
organs are cured by the use of Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
When the diseased stomach is cured,
diseases of other organs which seem re
mote from the stomach, but which have
their origin in a diseased condition of
the stomach and other organs of diges
tion and nutrition, are cured also.
THE PARMER FAILS
In health just as does the city-man, and
he fails commonly from the same cause,

wholesome place to live; the farmer's
life Is a healthv life: but no external
advantages can overcome the effects of
a diseased stomacn. When tie stomacn

in Ireland and Canada, the Kins will not
come to Rome without trying to see the
Pope, as otherwise If would appear to be
an Intentional offense. Anticipating the

Emperor William's first visit, by allowing
the Kins to start from the British em

sleep is troubled and broken, when then
is loss of flesh, when there is a constant
feeling of dullness and languor. Nature
is hoisting the danger signal; The

was coated, appetite poor, and I had fre
quent distressing pains in the side and
under shoulder-blades, but within a week
after I commenced Dr. Pierce's Golden.
Medical Discovery there was a marked
change for the better, so I kept on using
it, three times a day, for over a month,, ,
with an occasional dose of Dr. Pierce's

and the results were all and more than I
could wish. My appetite is splendid I

in regard my case, asking your advice,
also what I needed in the medicine line.
The advice came promptly and after fol
lowing your directions I find. myself en
tirely relieved of any distressing symp

entirely cured. I had liver complaint
and indigestion of the- bowels. Took
eight bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Med

Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. Your reme
dies have proven very satisfactory in my
case, and I arn delighted to be my old

good and valuable advice, which was so
promptly given. My husband is taking
the 'Golden Medical Discovery,' and
also feels that it is doinjf him good.
One thing we are very positive of, is that
it will give a wholesome appetite when
all else fails."
