Yesterday in the House. By Telegraph to the News-Observer. Washington, May 7 —Houss. — Although the House does not fol low the example of the Senate by adjourning from Friday till Mon day, Saturday is usually a dull day, an early adjournment is always ex pected, and consequently many members devote) that day to the transaction of their depurtmental business. But the prospect of a final vote on the river and harbor bill had the effect of bringing to gether an unusually large Saturday attendance. Several requests for unanimous consent were denied, but Delegate Harvey, of Oklahoma, was fortunate. He secured the pas sage of the bill donating to Okla homa City for school purposes the military reservation at that point. The House then went into a committee of the whole on the riv er and harbor bill. The pending amendment was that offered by Mr. Whiting, of Michi gan, striking out appropriations for ship channel 21 feet in depth con necting the waters of the great lakes between Chicago, Duluth and Buffalo inserting in lieu thereof, provision authorizing the Secreta ry of War to appoint a board of en gineers to whom shall be referred the report of Col. O. M. Poe, upon the subject of a twenty feet channel from Duluth and Buffalo through the great lakes. The board shall also report as to the practicability of raising the water level of the lakes and connecting harbors by dam ming the Niagara river. Mr. Whitings amendment was rejected 35 to 120. The committee then rose and reported the bill to the House. Mr. Richardson of Tennessee, moved to lay the bill on the table. This motion was rejected and the advocates of the bill not being able to muster the sufficient force to order the yeas and nays, the amendments were agreed to in gross with the ex ception of the last section, upon whioh Mr. O’Neill of Missouri, de manded a seperate vote. The sec tion was agreed to yeas 122, nays 97. There was some filibustering and the House adjourned without pass ing the bill. Baseball Yesterday. Iy Telegpaph to the News and Observer.

The time set for the execution was not gener erally known as incompliance with the Colorado laws, the hanging was private.

Time was granted him to gain his composure, and then the hanging was proceeded with without any other demonstra tion. The crime for which Law ton was executed was the killing of John Hemming in an attempt to rob the conductor of a street car at Colorado spring. Lawton was an assumed name. He never divulged his real name. A Serious Flood In Missouri. By Telegraph to the News and Observer.

DESOLATING FLOODS. GREAT DAMAGE TO CROPS AND PROPERTY. People Forced to Flee lu Terrer From Their Homes In Illinois—A Big Dike Gives Way. By Telegraph to and News Observer. Morris HI, May 7.—Rain has been falling with such persistency here for the last few days that great damage has been done to the crops. The Illinois river has risen to a height which has compelled the people of the lower part of the town to move out. Peoria, 111., May 7.—Rescuing parties have been out in the La march draining districts all night and have found six of the twenty endangered families. They have been over the entire district and do not know whether the remaining families are safe or not. The dam age will reach a very large figure. No estimate can yet be made. The destruction is complete and there is a scene of the veriest desolation. The flood was due to the giving way of the great marsh dike, fifteen miles long, and protecting a strip of bottom land about two miles wide. The first break was at a point opposite Pekin last night. The crevasse was about six hundred feet wide and increased rapidly as the Illinois river had reached a stage not exceeded since 1844. The twenty families living in the bot tom possessed considerable amount of live stock which with the houses and farm implements have 4 been lost in the angry waters. Destructive Fins iu Minneapolis. By Telegraph to the News and Observer. Minneapolis, Minn., May 7.—Re vised estimates make the loss on the Northern Car Shops at Robbins dale over two hundred thousand dollars. There were two buildings, the main one being two hundred to three hundred feet in length. The fire was discovered by the watch man in the larger building about 1:30 a. m. and in a short time the fire was beyond control. The watch man in endeavoring to extinguish the fire fell and broke his leg but managed to get to the smaller building in which there was a tele phone and telephoned to the Min neapolis fire department asking for assistance. A steamer and hose cart were at once loaded upon a car and sent to the scene of the fire but their service was of little avail as the fire was beyond control long before they arrived. The smaller buildings which comprised the foundry, paint room, and machine shop caught fire and was soon de stroyed. _ General Debility. When the vital forces have be come prostrated from the effects of some acute disease and thereby the entire system is enervated and the organism weakened, when from some drain upon the system such as diarrhoea or lencomhoea, mental or physical overwork, excessive ner vousness, or the slow wasting ef fects of chronic disease of long standing, there is a general break down of nature and there appears to be no particular desease to which can be attributed this peculiar con dition you are suffering from, gen eral debility, which is frequently complicated with an ally no less formidable, Nervous Debility. The causes of both can more readily be found in the imperfect assimila tion of food than in any other source, and hence treatment should begin at the beginning by toning up the digestive organs and ren dering them capable of performing their proper functions and furnish ing to the system the strength which is absolutely necessary for a permanent cure. The symptoms are varied and differ in almost every case, the most general manifesta tions being a weak, tired feel ing, lack of energy, general weakness, fatigue easily pro duced by the slightest exertion, free and profuse perspiration with out effort sufficient to warrant it, weakness, pain and lameness of the back, vertigo, ringing in the ears, insomnia, slight unresting sleep, or inability to sleep at night through constant thinking. Among the most common of all symptoms are faint ness and dizziness which produce in company or a crowd, far-awy unnatural sensations as if you were x’emoved some distance from the parties with whom you are convers ing, when you are fully conscious that you are their midst. Nine times out of ten this condition is construed as billiousness and strong purgatives are resorted to to re move the cause, instead of gaining strength which is the main factor and prime element of cure, the drain upon the patients vitality is increased and the results most de sired are thwarted through the itn proper and ignorant medication. General Debility is a disease where nature needs assistance in effecting a cure, if this assistance is intelli gently given, she accepts it. If uot, she rejects it Tbe treatment by the Electropoise is intelligent, it causes the patient to properly assimilate healthy nourishment, which, together with the tonic ef fects of the instrument produces the strength without whioh no cure can be effected. The Electropoise together with a good, wholesome diet, will cure General Debility more rapidly than any method knowrt to science. Read carefully the following from a prominent lady of Charleston, S. C.: Mrs. Sallie F Chapin, President of the Women’s Christian Temper ance Union of South Carolina, Charleston, S. C., writing under date of January 20, 1890, says: l was truly glad to learn that an of fice had been opened in our city for the sale of an instrument (the Electropoise) about which I became so enthusiastic a few months ago that I rashly went into print iu an article describing its wonderful curative properties. I did not imagine the trouble I was bringing upon my self, for not a week has passed since that I have been called upon to give further testimony and tell more about it I have friends who, after suffering for years the most excruciating pain, which the most skillful physicians North and South had failed to relieve, have been cured by the use of the Electro poise. It is a panacea for nervous ness, brain fatigue, and general de bility. It only needs a trial to con vince the most skeptical, and when I hear the testimony of the Hon. Wm. C. Sibley, of Augusta, the Rev. T. W. Moore, D. D., of Florida, and others, whom I personally know and who have been benefited, I feel it a duty I owe suffering hu manity to say, try the Electropoise. Write to us for any further infor mation concerning the Electropoise. Suffering is unnecessary when a cure is easily obtainable. National Eleotropoise Company, 1,405 New York Avenue, Wash ington, D. C. An Editorial Article Which Every Reader Will Find of Interest. Editorial Correspondence. Since the appearance of an edito rial endorsing the instrument known as the Electropoise in the columns of this journal some weeks since, the offices of the Trade Review have been fairly deluged with inquiries concerning the same. In response to these a correspondent has visited Washington City, the headquarters of this miraculous invention. Our representative found Mr. John N. Webb, President of the Electro-Li bration Company, absent from the city. Mr. Webb is in England in the interests of the Electropoise whioh is creating a furor among the intelligent classes of the old world. However, in his absence much information was obtained from his brother, James H. Webb, who is secretary and treasurer of the Atlantic Electropoise Co., which controls the District of Columbia and the States of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Geor gia. The offices of the Atlantic Ebctropoise Company are looated at 1405 New York avenue iu Wash ington, and a few words as to the personnel of officers of the cor poration will not be amiss. Its president is W. H. Witherspoon— and in South Carolina—or indeed throughout the South, no name is hardly better known, none carries with it more weight, none gives stronger surety of honesty and in tegrity. It is a historic and beloved name and has never been attached to aught of doubtful standing or questionable worth. Samuel Wilder, vice president, is a prominent attorney of Birming ham, Ala, formerly of Raleigh, N. C., and members of the bar in eith er city can testify to the personal probity and honorable record of Mr. Wilder. As to James H. Webb, the secretary and treasurer, who so well represents his company here, nothing save words of strongest commendation are fit to convey an idea of the facts. Mr. Webb was for nine years connected with cot ton manufacturing interests in his native State, beiug employed by the Messrs. Holt in Alamance coun ty, N. C., in a responsible position. The names of such men are not at tached hastily to questionable schemes, but on the other hand give weight and tone to any com pany with which they may be asso ciated. As regards the Eleetropoise we have already given it our en dorsement; to this we would add that every day such favorable opin ion is more stroDgly confirmed. Lu our estimation it works a new eia in medical science—is the most be neficent discovery of the present century.—Trade Review, April 2fith. POWDER Absolutely Put©.
