GHOULS ROB
THE DEAD
Thirst, Heat and Disease Threaten the

Mutilators of the Dead Shot.
Dallas, Te., Sept., 12. A bulletin
from Galveston, via Virginia Point and
lloiieton, received here at 11a. id., euys:
"The situation growB worse every
minute. Water and ice are needed.
People a e in frenzy from Battering from
these causes. Scores have died since
iaet niulit nnd u number of tuffercrs
have gone insane."
IfoiwTo.v, Tex., Sept. 12. The ghouls
nave been holding an orgio of tlio dead
at balveston. The majority of theie
men were negroes, but whites took part
Hi the deeecration of the dead. Some of
them were natives and some had been
allowed to go over lroui the mainland
under the guise of 'relief workers.
Sot only did they rob the dead but they
mutilated bodieB in ordbr to secure their
8h'juli(.t booty.
A party of ten negroes were reluming
"Qui a looting expedition. They had
"ripped corpse of all valuables and tho
potktte of dome of the lootere were fairly
bulging out with finger of the dead
w'iieh had been cut otF because they
were ho swollen the rings could not be
Wnoved, Inujnsed at this desecration
nd mutilation of the dead, tho looters
were shot down and it has been deter
wiued that all found in the act of robbing
tho dead shall be summarily shot.
During the robbiug of the dead not
only were fingers cut off, but ears were
tripped from the head in order to secure
Mels of value. A few government
"oops who arrived and private citizens
"ve been patrolling the city and have
uleavored to prevent the robbing of the
di and on several occasions nave
"Hied offenders. It is said that at one
we eight were killed, and at another
' 'our. Altogether, the total of those
"ecuted exceeds 60.

Signature of
sudden disaster. All conservative esti
mates have been shattered by the esti
mates of Mayor Jones, of Galveston, and
other prominent and conservative men
who, in a statement to the Associated
Frees, declare that 3000 deaths will re
suit from the storm. Over 100 lives
were lost at other points in Texas.
Ten millions or dollars, it is said, will
cover Galveston's property loss, while
half as much is an estimate of that of
remainder of tiie state.
Late advices sav 700 human bodies
have) been weighted and sunk at sea
some identified, but more going to their
grayes unknown.
Martial law prevail now and vanda
1 ie id is being brought to a sudden check.
Sickening details of the work of ghouls
in mutilating and robbing the dead have
been received and half a hundred of these
men have paid the penalties of their
crimes by summary deaths.
The water supply is now reported as
adtquate and thereby one of the worst
featuiej of the situation is eliminated,
f jr provisions are being poured into the
stricken city by carloadj.
Many deaths are reeulting from un
avoidable neglect and the sanitary con
ditioiiB, and superhuman efforts are be
ing made to clear up the mass of debris
which bids fair to breed pestilence.
At noon today the telegraph companies
are said to be swamped with press and
private telegrams; enough business Is
piled In the offices to keep all wires busy
for twentV'four hours and now matter is
using refused. Several tugs should ar
rive here from Galveston and they will
add their thousands of words of press
matter and buudredsof private messages
to the already congested wires.

Victims to stomach, liver and kidney
troubles as well as women, aud all feel

the blood, backache, nervousness, head
ache and tired, listless, run-down feel

that. Listen to J. W. Gardner, Idavllle,
Jnd. He says: "Electric Hitters are
just the thing for a man when he is all
run down, aud don't care whether be
lives or dies. It did more to give me
new strength and good appetite than
anything I could take. I can now eat
anything and have a new lease on life."

New York, Sept. 12. A dispatch to
the Tribune from London says: Tho
Boers have decided to make a formal
dec'aration of guerrilla warfare. Gen
eral Botha is undetstood to have dis
sented from this course, but, according
to a Post correspondent with Lord
Roberts' forces, he was overruled by tho
other members of tho council of war.
The News correspondent in Belfast
learns through a refugee from the Boers
that President Ktuger was at Nelspruit
on Saturday anil that Ptesident Steyn,
Viljoen, Christian Botha, Fournio and
Delarey were with him. Lucas Meyer
has' been deposed from his command)
but remains Mr. Kruger's military ad
viser. President Kruger is said to be feeble,
and apparently atakes little interest in
the military movements. Ho remains
in his railway carriage, constantly read
ing psalms'. It is believed that his
ultimate intention is to take flight
towards Koomatiport.

of deBert land lying in Lake and Harney
counties, near the lines, which were
started by Mr. Nickerson in June, but
was compelled to be temporarily aband

The surveying of this land will make
available 253,440 acres of valuable land
Uo intending settlers. All this land
needs to make it productive is water,
which can be had either by reservoirs of
artesian wells. A constant flow of
artesian water can be had, as proved by
numerous experiments near this same
land, at a depth of from 100 to 300 feet,
and at a cost of about $100 per foot. The
land is nearly all first-class, sandy soil,
and all lies in Oregon.

of preventing them through tho influence

"I had a severe attack of bilious colic,
got a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic,
Cooler and Diarrhica Remedy, took two
doses and was entirely cured," says Rev.
A. A. Power, of Emporia, Kan. "My
neighbor ccross the street was sick for
over a week, had two orthrre bottles of
medicine from the doctor. He used
them three or four days without relief,
then called in another doctor who treat
ed him for some days and gave him no
relief, eo discharged him. I went over
to see him the next morning. He said
Iiie bowels were in a terrible Ox, that
they had been running off bo long that
it was almost Moody fins. I asked him
if he had tried Chamberlain'e Colic,
Cholera and Diarrluei Remedy and hd
eaid, 'No.' I went home and brought
him my bottle and gave him one dose;
told him to take another dose in fifteen
or twenty minutes if he did not find
relief, but he took no more and was en
tirely cured." For sale at Blaketey's

times, generally with fatal efiect. Mr.
Munkers, as an officer of the law, imme
diately proceeded to do bis duty, and
struck out after the men. After a lively
chase he succeeded in capturing ono by
the name of Hermann Schoels, with the
birds on his person. The others escaped.
Mr. Schoels came to Albany this morn
