Probable Site of ..Mill for Weyer haeusers. After five years of negotiations A. A. Werley has at last become owner of Commerce Addition, the point of the island opposite the central portion of the city and comprising ninety acres of land. It has always been recognized as an ideal spot for a mammoth mill and in the boom days of 1801 it was sold to Jarvis Conklin Mortgage Trust Company for fSO.000. After that com pany went into the hands of a receiver it became tied up through the many interests of various creditors getting involved in it. Then it was" hard for the owners to come down from the exorbitant price which it once brought Although it has been a tedious job and men with less persistence and less in terest in the town's welfare would have given it up long ago. Of late the prop erty has been represented by the Man hattan Trust Company., of New York, though it was really owned in England and that made it all the harder to make any deal on it. It is believed that the property will ultimately belong to the Weyerhaeuser Timber Company. There are several things which point to this surmise be ing correct. Mr. Werley is a close friend of It. L. McCormick, the secretary of the company, and worked for him sever al years before he came to South Bend 16 years ago and Mr. Werely ack nowledges that he has some hopes of selling that tract of that company. Mr. MeCormnck has been here of late tliee big tides that tell of the hijj run of salmon we may exjiect and we are making preparations to handle and can salmon to our fullest capacity.

Reed commenced lust Sunday to make some improvements on the crack steamer of Willapa Harbor which will make her even more of the pride of these waters. The pilot house was raised about three feet to give the man at the wheel a chance to take a bet ter view of his surroundings. Of course, the people who travel on me steamer want the pilot to have all the I conveniences possible to guard against accidents, but they will be more inter ested in learning what else is to be done. A ladies' cabin is being built ort Tacoma, yesterday morning. the upper deck abaft of the epptain's rooms and will be eighteen feet in length Captain Reed was not entirely decided in his plans when the Journal represen tative talked with him, but he had this move in mind for several months. On the starboard side of the lower deck a cook's galley will be put in, and during the summer season when the boat is making two trips a day, the crew will be able to take their meals aboard without carrying cold lunches. The work being done will not interfere with the regular trips of the boat. .Tas. Darling has charge of the work. South Bend Journal.

Caught Cold While Bunting a Burglar. Mr. Wm, Thos. Lonorgan, provincial Constable at Chapleau, Ontario, says: "I caught a severe cold while hunting a burglar in the forest swamp last fall. Hearing of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, I tried it, and after using two small bottles, I was completely cured." This remedy is intended especially for coughs and colds. It wilt loosen and relieve a severe cold in less time than by any other treatment and is a favorite wher ever its superior excellence has become known. For sale by Frank Hart and Leading Di-uggsts. IT PAYS jtEKNEQ. W0 MKKurW;-, Fic-.imile of Box to buy MENNEN'S BORATED TAL CUM because of its perfection aad purity. But it does not pay to sell MENNEN'S POWDER nearly as well, as it pays to sell an imperfect and impure substitute which, costingabout half the cost of MEN NEN'S, yields the dealer double profit. The "just as good" with which some dealers try to palm off a substitute is true any way. If it's only "just as good " for the dealer why push the sale. If it's only " j ust as good " for the buyer why risk an unknown preparation for MENNEN'S. There's nothing- just as good as MEN NEN'S BORATED POWDER, and the dealer who says there is, risks his customer's skin and safety to make an extra profit on a sale.
