NELSON DNGLEY I
PASSES AWAY
Tacoma, Jan. 14. During a heavy
storm early thia morning the British
ehip Andalana was caught by a squall
and capsized in the harbor, sinking in
twenty-two fathoms oi water. The ac
cident occurred some time between the
hoars of 2 and 4 o'clock, but was not dis
covered until daylight.
All on board were drowned. The crew,
in command of Captain G. W. Stalling,
consisted of twenty-eight men all told.
Eleven of these had been discharged
yesterday, thu9 leaving the captain and
seventeen men to perish in the waves a
few hundred yards from land.
The disaster is one of the most mel
' ancholy ever recorded, and of much sim
ilarity to that which befell the British
ehip Blairmore in the harbor of San
Francisco about four years ago, of which
the details are still fresh in the minds of
the public.
The Adalana arrived on the Sound
from Shanghai December 2Sth, in bal
last. She was under charter to Epping
er & Co., to load wheat for the United
Kingdom, and four days ago was towed
into the harbor at Tacoma and moored
to a ballast buoy to have her hold cleared
for the cargo.
This was accomplished last evening,
and it was the intention to have the ves
sel shifted to the dock this morning
when the loading would have been com
menced. As is usual when a vessel ia lying light
on open water, ballast logs had been
made fast on either side to prevent any
accident should a blow occur.
Late . last night a strong wind com
menced sweeping over the' bay and it

steadily grew in fierceness until during
the early part of this morning it had at
tained a velocity of seventy miles an
hour. It was a living gale bordering on
a hurricane.
Although the ship was under bare
poles, her high sides and lofty rigging
caught the wind so much that the chains
fastening the ballast logs to the ship's
side snapped. Thus without any sup
port the vessel could not withstand the
terrific squalls, but careened over to her
beam ends. A9 the ship was to have
commenced taking cargo this morning
the hatcbes had been left open, thus al
lowing the water to pour into the' hold
In large volumes. What took place on
board the ship from the time she cap
sized until she went to the bottom of
course is not known, as Dot one of those
on board remains to tell the tale, but the
general opinion is that all the men were
drowned in their bunks. It is estimated
that the Ehip sank within 15 minutes
after capsizing.
As soon as the accident had been dis
covered tuga steamed np and rushed out
in Bearch of possible survivors. A life
boat and much wreckage has come
ashore and tugs are now searching Com
mencement bay for rafts, boats and dead
bodies. ' . "
The Andalana was a four-masted iron
bark of 2395 tons net register, was built
in Wilkeson, Nova Scotia, in 1889, and
is owned Dy j. x. x w. jtooeris. one
was a first class vessel, and valued at
about $180,000.
Captain G. W. Stalling hails from
Annapolis, Nova Scotia, where he leaves
a wife and three children. The names
of the officers and crew are not known.
The storm which swept over the bay
last night is the most violent yet re
corded in this section. Reports from
neighboring points on the sound give
the velocity of the wind at 70 miles per
hour. At this place it is blowing at the
rate of 38 miles per hour today.

THE STOMACH
Washington, Jan, 13. Hon. Kelson
Dingley, of Maine, leader of the Repub
lican side on the floor of the bouse of '
representativep,, died here tonight at
10:30 o'clock, of heart failure, resulting
from extreme weakness due to pnu'e
inonia. He was unconscious during
most of the day, and death came quiet
ly, without consciousness being regained
All the members of his family were at
his bedside. To within a few hours be
fore his death, the family firmly believed
as it bad throughout his illness, that he
would recover. While the past few
days have given great hopes of recovery
the progress of the disease had made the
patient so dangerous' weak, and had
seriously affected his heart. Late last
night and again this morning, Mr. Ding
ley had another sinking spell, from j
which he slightly recovered. There
were further evidences of heart failure
as the day progressed, and the greatest
stimulants weie administered without
effect. He failed perceptibly during
the day and as night approached hope
was abandoned.' Mrs. Dingley is very
much prostrated by her husband's death
and she is now under the care of a phys
ician. Mr. Dingley bad spent all of the last
sixteen years of his life, when his con
gressional duties called him to Washing
ton, at the Hamilton House. He occu
pied rooms on the second floor and bad
with him his wife and daughter, the
eons being here but little.
Representative Dingley's illness dated
back to December 19th. The physicians
diagnosed his case as one of grip, so
commonly prevailing here, and cautioned
the patient to keep bis room. The fol
lowing Saturday, pneumonia developed
in the left lung, complicated with- the
irregularity of the heart. -

A Pleasant, Simple but Safe and Effec
tual Cure For It.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered te next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloat
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
sometimes with sour or watery risings, a
formation of gases, causing pressure on
the heart and lungs and difficult breath
ing, headaches, fickle appetite, nervous
ness and a general played out, languid
feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue and if the interior
of the stomach could be seen it would
show a slimy, inflamed condition.
kThe cure for this common and ob
stinate trouble is found in a treatment
which causes tte food to be readily,
or thoroughly digested before it has
time to ferment and irritate the delicate
'surface of the stomach. To secure a
prompt and healthy digestion is the one
necessary thing to do and w hen normal
digestion is secured the catarrahal con
dition will have disappeared.
According to Dr. Harlanson the safest
.and beet treatment is to use after each
meal a tablet composed of Diastase,
Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux, Gclden
Seal and fruit acids. These tablets can
now be found at all drug- stores under
the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
and not being a patent medicine can be
used with perfect safety and assurance
that .healthly appetite and thorough di
gestion will follow their regular use
after meals.
Mr. N. I.'Booher, of 2710 Dearborn St.,
Chicago, 111.; writes: "Cattarh' is a
local condition resulting from a neglected
cold in the bead, whereby the lining
membrance of the nose' becomes in
flamed and. the poisonous discharge
therefrom paesing backward into the
throat reaches the stomach, thus pro
ducing catarrah oi the stomach. Medi
cal authorities prescribed for me for
three years for catarrah of stomach
without cure, but today I am the
happiest of men after using only one
box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I
cannot find appropriate words to ex
press my good feeling. I have found
flesh, appetite and sound rest from their
use "
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets - is the
safest preparation as well as the very
simplest and most convenient remedy
for any form of indigestion, catarrah of
stomach, billionsness, sour, stomach,
heartburn and bloatfng after meals.
Send for little book, mailed free on
stomach troubles, by addressing: Stuart
Co., Marshall, Mich.' The tablets -can
