Keily had been in the employ of the telephone company for two years and was a care ful and trusted workman. The cause of his oeath was purely an accident and was in no way due to carelessness on his part. Keily was at work on the top of a high pole stringing wires. His fellow workman threw a coil of wire to him. which he tried to catch. The effort nlic made to grasp the wire caused him to lost his footing and fall. He struck on a live electric wire and was thus killed instantly. Dr. Marshall and Dr. Bodge were called and they worked over him for half an hour without be ing aide to detect any sign of life. Coroner Perry was called and it was decided that death was purely acci dental. The body was then removed to Rich’s undertaking rooms.

The soldi, r bays who fought dm inp tl Rebellion wont hum*' as a rule in p:«lty bad shape, caused by exposure and interop, r food m1 the use of *|unntiti"S of entree which left its mark ii the wr of many a stomach.

I drank it three times a day and at the close of the war re turned home almost a w rc k.

After suffering this way for years, and half living, I was told by fiiend of your Postum Coffee. “At ftrt I refused to even try it. for I thought it meant more suffering for me. but at last 1 consented and it did taste mighty good, for I was. a dear lov er of coffee. “T waited for the distress in my stomach that always had come with t orrunon coffee, but it never time.

Today’s Program Includes 2.24, 3 Minute and Free-for-All. Fairfield, Me., Aug. 23.—(Special). The weather, Friday, was about as unfavoiable as it could be for races, with ihe exception of a steady down pour of rain. It did rain during the forenoon, not much to be sure, but enough to make everything uncertain, and it was even decided at one time to postpone the classes scheduled fd? the day until Saturday afternoon. Bui the sun came out bright and warm for a short time and it then looked as if it was out for good, so it was de rided to go ahead with the program. But this uncertainty ruined the at tendance, so there was a much smaller crowd than there would otherwise have been. But as it was, there was a fair attendance. I-ut the sport was tip top. Two classes, ihe 2.21 and the 2.32, were scheduled for the afternoon and both developed red hot contests and split heats. The 2.21 came first on the card and this was a dandy. It was called about 2.30 and there were six starters om of 10 entries. The first heat was takm very neatly by At Pointer, driven by Robert Waite. Grace Lake, driven by Waller Reynolds, took the lead at the word and hold it well for the first half and was overhauled on the second. A1 Pointer stayed with the bunch, which was well behind the leaders dur ing the first half but which gained on them m the second. On the bark stretch in the last half Pointer drew away from the bunch and worked his way forward steadily until he passed under the wire a winner by a neck. This rather surprised the crowd, bur it was a great opening for the after noon. Lazzara mixed things up in great style In the second heat. This horse was third in the first but finished a strong first in the second. Grace Lake, after making a great bid for the first heat, finished fifth in the second. After getting to the front Lazzara made il three straight, al though it was a pretty fight all through. A1 Pointer dropped to fourth place in the second, hut >ok second in the last two. Grace Lake did a good mile in the last heat, finishing fourth, through bad breaks. Robert K although tail-omler in every heat, won lots of friends. The little gray horse had barrels of speed but couldn’t keep his felt, lie would get up among the singers and give them a great scare and then go off his pace and fall wav be hind, usually overhauling the field in gn at after lie regained his fe t. He must have traveled some pr. tty’.fast quarters but had hard luck. With a little more steadiness he would have made it pretty warm for the others. The time made in this class was very good considering the condition of the track. This was very heavy, the pole on the home stretch being muddy and slip per.'.. The whole circle was had and fast linn w; s impossible. If the conditions had be« n favorable th- time would have been pretty low th«* way the race was fought from start to finish. The 2.32 was not quite so exciting as the 2.21. hut it was a good race nevertheless. There \vt re six starters in this out of 13 entries and the heats were split as in the first one. lone took the first but Ruby Me. after finishing fifth in the first heat, railed in and made it three straight. There were some very pretty fights all through this race and the crowd was well satisfied. Today will he the big day of ihe meet. The great attraction is the free-for-all, the first event on the card. Some fine hors, s are enter'd in this and it’s going to bo a light for tie- money from the star:.' All the horsemen are anticipating this with a gn at deal of pleasure and are con fident that it will be one of the greatest races seen in the State, this season, if the conditions are ;-t all favorable. There are also 2.24 and a 3.00 class, both having big lists of entrii s. These three classes are expected to furnish gre at sp-ut. A game of ball will be play ed by Fairfield and Madison. -The sum mary 2.21 GLASS—PFRSE $150. 1 1 1 Luzzara. lilk m. Don l’izarro. II. It. Ralston, Brighton. Mass.3 AI Point or, ch g. Itomco, Geo.

Alice Carr, Junius and Carl Wilkes the Other Winners. Headvillo, Mass.. Auk. 22.—The one great surprise at the Rcadville track on today’s Grand Circuit card was the appearance of Lord Derby in the 2.07 trot. The surprise was not carried out to the extent of his winning the race, for Ed Geers drove The Monk under the wire ahead of him in two straight heats end won, in the first heat, and making a new record for himself of 2.05*4 and a new race record for the track. Although $2500 was offered in the 2.07 trot, only four horses were entered. The small field served to make the race more interesting, as all the horses went fast and there was no straggling. Geers got away first and led to the finish. Lord Derby tried to show speed at the half, was too late and Geers came under the wire fire. The time 2.05*4 broke The Monk’s own record. The 2.16 trot had 12 starters, and five heats were needed to find a winner. The first heat went to the Kentucky horse Re-Elected, the New Jersey mare Alice Carr \Yon the second, and Thomas VV. Lawson's Mary P. Leyburn the third. The others were sent to the sta ble and Alice Carr won the next two heats and the “race. The 2.19 pace was won by the Go shen, Ind., gelding Junius, in three straight heats. The 2.13 pace also was done in splen did time, the game little Port Henry gelding Carl Wilkes winning in two straight heats in the fast time of 2.06% and 2.06%.

SECRET REVEALED. Names of Men Fighting the Northern Pacific Merger. Bourke Cockran Named as One by Lawyer G. A, Lamb. Cockran Denounces Charge As False in Every Detail. New York, Aug. 22.—Lawyer George Alfred Lamb, attorney for Peter Power, went on the stand, Thursday, and named the men who with Power as plaintiff and Capt. Henry Stern as go-between, he said had hoped to conceal their con nection with the Northern Pacific mer ger suit, and keep their identity hidden. Those he named were: W. liourke Cockran, Camille Weidenfeld. H. Con tent fc Co., and Edwin R. Thomas of the firm of Thomas Post, Wall street bankers and brokers. The story of Power's wandering came out; a plan to send him to Europe was revealed; his quassl-eonnection with the suit at issue and in short a story of the most remarkable action ever be gun to prevent a combination of capi tal. Weidenfeld. Cockran and other spon sors of the Power suit, Mr. Lamb de clared. feared that Power would be broken down as a witness and wouid “give away the people behind it." Cockran was telephoned to for ad vice, Lamb declared and was one of the persons for whom bo (Lamb) was given to believe, he was acting in push ing the suit. I.ainb said Cockran was one of those who advised Power to stay out of the court's jurisdiction and was ready to supply him with funds to en able him to do so. IV. P.ourke Cockran in an interview, Thursday, characterized all the testi mony relating to him as false in every detail. Peter Power, who was named as complainant in the suit brought to pre vent the turning over of the stock of the Northern Pacific Railroad Co., to the Northern Securities Co., was taken from Ludlow Street jail, Thursday, to appear before Special Examiner Mabie, who is taking testimony in the proceed ing. Power was not the first witness called, his attorney, George Alfred Lamb, being called first. Mr. Lamb was accompanied by Former Judge J. Rider Cady, who is his attorney. W.■ J). Guthiie, of counsel for the Northern Securities Co., objected to several in terruptions made by Judge Cady, but the special examiner ruled that th" judge might appear for Mr. Lamb while the latter was a witness. Mr. Lamb said he was admitted to practice in the particular case of the United States court in Minnesota, by courtesy of the court. He said Lamb and Gurnesy were attorneys of record in the Power and in the Uouden suits. Mr. Land) said he made a rough draft of the complaint in the Power suit on a railway train. He promised to piVduee a copy of the draft, later. “At your previous examination I un derstood you that you represented in fluential persons,” Mr. Guthries said. “You then declined to give the names. Will you give them now?” "I will." replied the witness. “At my previous examination I understood those people, who had certainly ex pended large sums of money on this litigation, were my clients. If their statements to the contrary are correct that relationship does not exist. The persons I believe I represented were Camille Weidenfeld, the firm of Thomas Post or rather Mr. Thomas of that firm. W. Bourke Cockran, and Content Co. “You told us Mr. Cockrhn would make an important witness?” said Mr. Gutheria. "I am quite convinced that Mr. Cock ran knew all about these matters and was financially interested. He was present at the conferences in Mr. Wei denfeld's office and I know Mr. Weiden feld would take no steps without Mr. Cockran's knowledge and approval." "Do you know Parker C. Chandler?" “I know him as a lawyer, practicing In Boston and attorney for Weiden feld.'' “Did he advise that Peter Power go to Europe?" “He did." "Was that after you told him Power had been subpeuaed to appear in thes proceedings'.’” "It was.” Some time in June. Mr. Lamb said. Capt.

Con tinuing the witness said the expense of a trip to Chicago taken by himself and Power in connection with the suit were paid by Wklenfeld. Mr. i.mib said the statement of Mr. Weidenfeld that he had suggested the different suits in the expectation that the proceedings would establish his repution as a lawyer was not true. “Did Mr. Wt idenfeld's partner, Thomas W. Lawson, have any interest in this litigation?” asked counsel. “I think not. I am sure not.” Mr. Lamb also said David Lamar had hail no Interest in the suits. “Tell about the $730 you received from Mr. Weidenfeld," Sir. Gutherle continued. “Captain Stern hail insisted that Peter Power l»o sent away. That was when the first attempt was made to serve Power, lie was afraid Power would break down snd give away secrets.

Mr. Lamb said Weidenfelil advanced him 33000 on account of the fees held up in the Consolidated Gas matter and held his demand note for that amount. He said he holds a letter from Mr. Weidenfeld that shows the nature of the transaction. Power began his testimony by saying that he was 21 years old; that' he first met Mr. Lamb in November, 1900. and that he began the study of law in Lamb's office in April of the next year. He was to receive a week salary. thd you ever own any stock in the Northern Pacific Railroad Company?" j asked Mr. Kellogg, who conducted the ex amination. "ilr. Lamb told me Mr..

Aii I the information he had was from Mr Lamb. powort that Edward P. Remington believes that hi broth r Robert it. Remington was mar dered in this city .was received with in credulity here, Thursday. Chief of Po.ic Richards, when interviewed by an Ass elated Press representative, said that I was impossible that Mr. Remington eoul( have b. cn murdered. He said he thru oughly investigated the affair soon afte it happened with a view to finding a clev. that might be any possibility of murde having been committed, and that there could be no doubt but that the man came to his death by his own hand. Medical Examiner Ecroyd, who view- the body and who deemed an autopsy un necessary, stated, tonight, that there wa nothing to indicate that the man died oth er than by suicide. The only mystery about the whole affair, he said, was th he coubl find no traces of only two shot-, while three barrels of the revolver were empty. J- -I Van Alen. whose name lias been mentioned in connection with this case, is in New York and nothing could i learned from that quarter. Tlv undertaker who had charge of the body also gave it as his opinion that njast have been a case of suicide. REMINGTON’S FUNERAL.

THE BARTHOLIN MURDER. Coroner's Jury Says Hold Thompson and Counselman and Release Claffey. 'hicngo. Aug. 22.—The second deci sive step toward unraveling the tangle of mystery about the Bartholin-Mitch ell murder case was begun Thursday by the police when the postponed inquest to determine the cause of the death of Mrs. Anne Bartholin and the responsi bility therefore was renewed. A coro ner's jury was sworn in over a week ago and at that time viewed the body of the woman which was found wrap ped in bed clothing and crammed into a hole in the cement floor of a notorious death house at 4310 Calumet avenue. Bate in the day the coroner's jury returned a verdict that Mrs. Bartholin came to her death. July 5, from strangulation and recommended that Oscar Thompson, who is already held as principal in the murder, and Edward Counselman be held to the grand jury until discharged by due process of law. The jury further recommended releas ing John Claffey in this case and that William Bartholin be apprehended. Always Afraid Something Dreadful is Going to Happen. Why Should i Women Have the Blues More j Than Men j When a cheerful, brave, and light-hearted woman is suddenly plunged into that jierfectioii of misery, the blues, it is a sad picture. It is usually this way: She has been feeling out of sorts for some time, experiencing severe headache and backache sleeps very poorly and is exceedingly nervous, j Sometimes site is nearly overcome by faintness, dizziness, and pal pitation of the heart; them that bearing-downi feeding is dreadfully wearing. Her husband says, “Now, don't get the blues! You will be all i right after you hav* taken the doctor’s medicine.” Hut she does not get all right. She grows worse day by day, until all at once she realizes that a distressing female complaint is established, j Her doctor has made a mistake. She loses faith; hope vanishes; then comes the morbid, melancholy, everlasting blues. She should have been told just what the tremble was, hut probably she withheld some information from the doctor, who, therefore, is unable to accurately locate her particular illness. Mrs. Pinktinm has relieved thousands of women from just this kind ot trouble, and now retains tht-ir grateful letters in her liinavy as i proof of the great assistance she lias rendered them. This same assist ance awaits every sick woman in the land. Write her to-day. —mu ’J How Two Women Were Cared Dear Mrs. Pinkham I was troubled very much with female weakness, falling of the womb and bearing' down pains.

Fix Things So American Vessels Can Do the Business. New York, Aug. 22.—Referring to the fart that the construction of the Pa nama canal will necessitate the trans portation of hundreds of cargoes of construction material, food supplies for workmen, etc., the Journal of Commerce adds: Panama and Colon are foreign ports, and there is nothing, therefore, to pre vent foreign shipowners from compet ing at low rates for carrying material. It is said by a representative of the Pa nama canal interests that the material reoulred in the construction of the canal will certainly exceed $10,000,000 in addition to the food supplies. This matter will consist very largely of ce ment, granite, lumber and machinery. The lumber will come largely from Ore gon and that section of the country and will not be a matter of much con cern to shipowners on the Atlantic coast, but in the case of cement, stone and machinery the items will be of great importance and communications have already been sent to the govern ment at Washington with a view to seeing if some way cannot be decided upon whereby this enormous carrying movement may be conferred to Ameri can ships. It is proposed that a construction of the coastwise law might be made de claring a six-mile zone on either side of the canal to be American territory and this would convert Panama and Colon into domestic ports. This zone under the treaty with Colombia is merely leased to the United States, as Colombia does not relinquish her sov ereignty and some doubt is expressed whether the government could there fore hold the ports of Panama and Co lon without incurring international controversy. Under the bill as passed by Congress no restricting of the carrying trade to American vessels can be made and American shipowners claim that they will not be able to meet the competi tion of foreign vessels in this trade for the reason that a large number of Nor wegian vessels which bring fruit are available. These vessels will naturally be able to carry southbound cargo at much lower rates than could American ves sels, which must make their entire ex penses on such southbound cargo and return north practically in ballast. BUTTER INSPECTION. W. D. Collyer Completes.His Work for Entire United States. Chicago. Aug. 22.—William D. Coll yer, United States inspector of dairy reports, and Prof. G. L.. McKay, pro fessor of dairying in the Iowa State Agricultural College at Ames, will complete. Friday, the work of inspect ing butter for the United States. Mr. Collyer, Thursday night, declined to say what his report would contain. Mr. Collyer and Prof. McKay for months have been testing butter from all parts of the country. On May 1, the first shipment of butter was received. After that shipments came every day and before the month had passed more than ,j()0 butter makers had sent their butter to Chicago for the test, and ev ery month since then the dairymen sent 20 pounds of their best butter to this city. “The butter is high-class." said Mr. Collyer. "None of it is perfect, but one man's butter was scored at MS. which is just two points off. The test for the butter was rigid. The flavor counted 4r> points, the body 25, color, 15, salt. 10 and the package 5. This is the first time that butter has been scored in the United States.” J. H. Van Dyke, a government chem ist, will be in Chicago, Saturday. He will take some of the butter to Wash ington where it will again be examined to see how much more moisture it con tains. SOLD FOR $1,000,000. Cecil Rhodes Gave Lands Worth That to Countess of Warwick. London, Aug. 22.-The Essex County Chronicle says it hears that (Veil Rhodes la'llneatiled to the Countess of Warwick lands tu South Africa which have been sold for Jl.000,000. The Earl and Countess of Warwick have an estate in Essex (Easton Lode*1, IHinmow) which may account tor the lo cal paper obtaining this item of news. The Countess, two years aso referred to as ••Rabbling Brooke and who was well known as Lady Brooke, the famous beau lv obtained her nickname because it was supposed that she first whispered of the baccarat scandal in which King Edward, as T’rince of Wales, figured years ago. She founded Itrooke House at Reading for the training of women, and some time ago added to it a colonial department, in which women are taught cooking, house wifery. laundry work and dressmaking. Some' time before the death of Cecil Rhodes the Countess published an article on "Training Girls for the Transvaal" in which she directly appealed to Andrew Carnegie for aid in the work. At the time the provisions of Mr. Rhodes' will was made public it was reported that he had left a large sum of money to the Earl and Countess of Warwick because the Countess, more than all other Eng lish women, best personified British impe rialism from a feminine point of view: blit the report was denied by an intimate friend of Mr. Rhodes who was familiar with the contents of the will. Friday's session of the Universal Peace meetings at Mystic.

BOND-BLAINE CONVENTION. Sir Robert Bond Sails' With Full Powers to Ratify. London, Aug. 22.—Sir Robert Bond, the premier and colonial secretary of Newfoundland, sailed, Friday, for Mon treal on his way to Washington with full powers from the government to resume negotiations for the ratifica tion of the Bone!-Blaine convention. The Bond-Hluine convention was a special agreement entered into about 10 years ago between the late James G. Blaine, then secretary of state, and the premier of Newfoundland. The convention on the part of New foundland. granted to the I'nited States fishermen, considerable privileges in re gard to purchasing bait and largely re duced the duties on a considerable class of American imports into Newfound land. The United States on its side opened its markets to Newfoundland fish and raw products and confirmed the privilege of the transportation of fresh fish in bond to the United States markets. The Newfoundland premier has de clared himself in favor of free trade with the United States as against a union of the colony with the Dominion of Canada. His success in obtaining imperial sanction for his present Amer ican visit is the culmination of 12 years of persistent effort, and only this week was Sir Robert able to convince the government of the injustice done to Newfoundland by the non-ratification of the convention and secure its con sent to the resumption of reciprocity negotiations. The premier of Newfoundland will lose no time in getting to work and the British charge d’affaires will communicate with the state depart ment shoitly after the premier’s ar rival in America. TENNIS AT NEWPORT, Best Singles So Far Played—Dr. Pirn Defeated. Newport, Aug. 22.—The tennis of the fourth (lay of the national champion ship furnished the best sport in singles so far of th“ tournament and was made noteworthy by the defeat of one of th« three foreign contestats. Dr. Joshua Pini, a former champion of all Eng land. L. E. Ware of Boston, accom plished the downfall of the British vet eran. This match was, however, only one of a number of interesting contests, in which that between M. D. Whitman and H. C. Wright attracted the most attention. To the uninitiated, Ware's conquest of Dr. Pim was the surprise of the tournament. His victory will bring him against H. L. Doherty either tomorrow or Monday.

McKinley, memorial services be held in all of the churches in Buffalo and that the city be draped with the ilag of our country. He has appointed a committee to ar range for other observances fitting to the occasion. He further suggests that on the day following the anniver sary exercises be held in the public schools. Skagway dispatches say that al though the Skagway-Juneau cable is not broken, the government crew of ex perts has stopped operations toward re pairs and given up the proposition in despair. The trouble arises chiefly from great kinks in the line, which was so loosely laid that it went to the bottom in coils. The insulation has been broken in so many places that an entire new cable seems necessary. The line is 100 mi!es long. It was laid last fall, but has been operated only a few weeks. “Mr. Morgan's ideal of industrial de velopment through the principle of combination is of such vast magnitude that 1 confess it was beyond my men tal grasp.” Pres. G. A. Parkin of To ronto University, a fellow passenger with Mr. Morgan, thus condensed a re markable conversation in which the financier outlined for him his views of the financial future. “Mr. Morgan be lieves that the financial world is see ing, today, only the beginning of the development of the principle of com bination.” said Pres. Parkin. "He be lieves the trust idea is progressive. It is only in its infancy. His shipping trust, he told me, was only the shipicing interests.” The Vatican authorities have com pleted the collection of documents re ferring to the Philippines question for the use of the apostolic delegate at Ma nila and it is conjured that his appoint ment is imminent. A complete history of the negotiations on the subject of the friars' lands is given, including a history of the voluminous report of the Papal delegates and full text of the notes exchanged by Gov. Taft and the Vatican. These are supplemented by precise instructions regarding which secrecy is maintained, though Cardinal Kampolla, the Papal secretary of state, expresses the hope that instructions are so framed as to enable the delegate to fulfill the Pope's promise to Gov. Taft, namely, to reach a solution satisfactory to both parties. A correspondent of The Associated Press at Paris was informed at the foreign office, Friday, that the suc cessor of Jules Cambon as French am bassador at Washington had not been appointed, but that M. Jusserand, the French minister at Copenhagen, had been selected for the post. M. Jesser and speaks Knglish fluently and is the author of several English books. His wife, who was a Miss Richards, is an American who has resided for a long time in Paris. M. Jesserand has been prominently connected with the move ment for the development of athletic sports in France. It is not true that M. Cambon is going to St. Petersburg as the successor of Marquis De Monte bello. French ambassadir to Russia. It is said on good authority that M. Cambon will be appointed French am bassador at Madrid, succeeding M. Patenetre. NATIONAL HOME J. D. Greer returned, Friday, from a visit to Charlestown.

A bail game of unusual interest took place on the Johnson field, Thursday af ternoon, the rival teams being the locals of Gardiner and the locals ol' this town. A change of position has lately been made with several members of the home team and a catcher and a new pitcher secured, which will tend in every way to strength en the team. At 2.45 began one of the best and most ably contested games ev r played on the ground. From start to fin ish the score was held at a low figure, almost a tie, which kept the excitement among the spectators at a fever pitch. The teams were well matched and the batteries worthy of all praise. At the close of 11 innings the score was 5 to 4 in favor of the home team.

This signature Is on every box of the genuine Laxative Bromo*Quinine Table*., WM cold la «M «*gk Rheumatism Cured by a New Remedy That Ysu Jay Try Without Spending a Cent. 79 Years Old. Cured of Rheumatism after all other remedies failed. On the theory "that seeing is belief- ing." John A. Smith of Milwaukee wants everyone to try his remedy for the cure of rheumatism at his expense. For that reason he proposes to distri bute 25,000 free boxes among all per sons sending him their address. Mr. Smith had suffered all the agony and torture from rheumatism, tried all the remedies known and yet utterly failed to find relief. At times he was so helpless that he had to take morphine and after consid erable doctoring he gave up in despair. He began studying into the causes of rheumatism and after much experi menting, finally hit upon a combina tion Cif drugs which completely cured him. The result was so beneficial to his entire system that he called his new found remedy “Gloria Tonic.” Those of his friends, relatives and neighbo> s suffering from rheumatism were next cured and Mr. Smith concluded to offer his remedy to the world. But he found the task a difficult one as nearly every body had tried a hundred or more rem edies and they couldn’t be made'to be lieve there was such a thing as a cure for rheumatism. But an old gentle man from Seguin, Texas, wrote him saying if Mr. Smith would send him a sample he would try it, but as he had suffered forty-five years and wasted a fortune with doctors and advertised remedies, he wouldn't buy anything more, until he knew it was worth some thing. The sample was sent, he pur chased more and the result was aston ishing. He was completely cured. This gave Mr. Smith a new idea and ever since that time he has been sending out free sample boxes to all who apply, j In Prosser, Neb., it cured a lady of fiT j who had suffered 52 years. In Foun- i tain City, Wis.. it cured Hon. Jacob Sexauer. a gentleman of TO, who suf fered for 33 years. In Perrysburg, O., it cured a gentleman 70 years old. In Heron Lake, Minn., it cured Mrs. John Gehr, who had suffered for 30 years. Rev. C. Sund, of Harrisville, Wis., test ed this remarkable cure on two mem bers of his congregation, one of who had suffered 1.7 and the other 25 year3, both were completely cured. In St. Louis. Mo., it cured Mr. R Kaerber of The Concordia Publ. House. In Van dalia. Ills., it cured Mrs. Mary E. Sayles 7S years of age. who was so crippled that she could not dress herself. In Pennington. Vt., it cured an old man whom the best physicians of Worms arid Frankfurt, Germany, called incur able. This old gentleman had walked for 20 years on crutches, both legs hav ing been 'time. He can now walk like a young man. Even prominent physi cians had to admit that "Gloria Tonic” is a positive success, among them Dr. Quintero of the University of Venezue la, to whom it was recommended by the United States Consul. In thous ands of other instances the result has been the same. It cured many cases. It cured many cases which defied Hos pitals. Drugs, Electricity and Medical Skill, among them persons over 75 years old. I)r. Smith will send a trial box also his illustrated hook on rheumatism, ab solutely free of charge to any leader of the Journal, for he is anxious that everybody should profit by his good fortune. It is a remarkable remedy and there is no doubt hut that it will cure any case of rheumatism, no mat ter how severe it may be. Mr. Smith’s address in full is: JOHN A.

The union Sunday school picnic from this place held at China Lake station, on the new part of the narrow guage railroad, was a marked success. The railroad carried 270 people, and many went with teams and boats. The pic nic grounds are fitted up in fine shape. There is a commodious pavilion, also tables, rustic seats, swings, boats and canoes. F. B. Hubbard, superintendent of the railroad, went along with the excursion to see that all was well, and did much to make it a large suc cess. The train service was all that could be desired. Exercises were held for tin hour in the afternoon in the pavilion, consisting of singing, brief addresses by Rev. H. F. Wood, Rev. Mr. Leathers of Connecticut. Frank' W. Metcalf, and recitations by some of the children. Fishing on the lake continues good, indeed much better than usual. One man went out from the southern part of the lake a few days since and came in with nine bass whose aggregate weight was 27 pounds, an average of 3 pounds. Who can beat this? EAST MT. VERNON. J. W.

And now one paper has spelled it “Mary McLean.” Such is fame. The superstitious will hold up their j hands in horror to learn that President I Roosevelt began his New England tour on Friday. Spain is probably the nation which is watching our naval maneuvers with the least interest. After her experience with the real thing, make believe naval vvai is pretty tame. The news comes from Manila that Aguinaldo has bought a small farm and will try to earn an honest living. How this will grieve some loyal hearts in the vicinity of Boston and Spring field. The Maine has her official trial, to day. In her builder's trial she I showed herself the fastest battleship I afloat and will probably repeat the performance today. The Maine is as powerful as fast, and our State may well be proud of its new namesake. Even the New York World, which cannot lie credited with Republican leanings, pokes fun at those Demo crats who are accusing the Republican Congress of extravagance. It inquires with much sarcasm if the Democrats voted in any considerable numbers against any of the large appropriations. The Democratic campaign text book in its desperate attempt to find an is sue makes the remarkable assertion that Congress created 5221 new civil offices for the sake of looting the treasury. It is true that 5221 new offices were created, but of these no fewe than 4300 are in the postal ser vice alone and their creation was forced by the natural expansion of that service to meet its annual growth, a growth involving increased receipts as well as increased expenditures. Those Boston papers which have been worrying about the mysterious disappearance and unaeountable sil ence of George Fred Williams need not fret any longer. He is down here in Maine enjoying life, and has spoken. The Rockland Star man had a talk with him the other day and the inter view made it plain that he is the same George Fred. With his old time fervor lie eulogized Bryan as "a royal charac ter: unselliesh; devoted to his fellow men: tried nnd never found wanting.” He insisted that Bryan's popularity is increasing, nnd intimated that the only Democracy is that led by the Ne braskan. There is a Transmississippi Con press being held in St. Paul, this week, made up of delegates representing the commercial, political and social inter ests of the states beyond the Missis sippi. They were appointed by gover nors and commercial bodies. Stteh a gathering may be of some use, but it savors of the sectional idea too much. Tlie country is well united, and meth ods oi transportation anil communica tion make it smaller than a single state was in the old times. The idea that there are geographical lines of demarcation making divisions of the West or the South or the East with separate and distinct interests, should rigidly be avoided. Mason and Oixon’s line unhappily has not been wiped out, but any attempt to set up a line be tween the East and West should be dis couraged. There is no more need of a Transmisslssippl congress than of a Clsmississippi congress and a sugges tion of the latter would be laughed at as absurd. Why Beef is High. So ready lias been the public to con demn an alleged “beef trust’’ for the higher price of beef which has pre vailed, this summer, that few people have stopped to consider that there are two sides to the story, and that there may be natural reasons for the advance in the price of this important staple. If there is an any illegal com bination of dealers, that is something to be reached and prevented by law; but the facts are that there has been a decrease in cattle relative to the in crease in population, that there has been a larger individual demand for beef incident to the general prosperity, that there has been an increasing de mand abroad for our beef, that the price of grain, especially corn, much used* for the fattening of heavy beef, is higher, and that the area of grazing land in the West is diminishing. These are conditions not to be reached by law and they are aft indisputable. The department of labor in Wash ington has been making a study of the beef situation, and the Boston Tran script has an interesting and instruc tive interview with Fred C. C'roxton of that department, who has been doing the work. He presents some striking figures to prove the facts of decreasing supply and increasing demand, and we will quote his own language: "It has been found," said Mr. Crox ton, in speaking to the Transcript correspondent, “that 14 per cent, of the expenditure of the average wage-earn er’s family goes for meat, of which be tween S and 10 per cent, is spent on beef. With several years of steady em ployment, and with better incomes in general than had before prevailed, it was natural that the individual demand for meat and also for its better grades should be on the increase. Population itself increased 20.7 per cent, in the last decade. In the urban and semi-urban population this increase for 35.9 per cent., while among the rural popula tion it was only 9.5 per cent. Growth of city population means growth for the demand for beef, its the proportion which it bears to all meats consumed is doubtless much greater in the cities than in the rural districts. "It thus appears that the individual is demanding more meat than a few years ago, that there are 20 per cent, more individuals in the country to de mand it. and that where this increase of population has been greatest the preference lor beef among meats is most marked, importation has also! made an increasing call for our fresh beef. Comparing the domestic exports for the five years which ended June 3u, 1901, with the five years preceding it appears that the number of cattle ex ported increased nearly 20 per cent., j the total quantity of fresh beef in- j creased 47.1 per cent., tallow 51.1 per cent., while canned beef showed a de-! crease of 31.8 per cent., and salted, pickled and other cured beef a decrease of 18.1 per cent. "With this view of the increased de mand it is interesting to inquire into, the supply. The four Western slaugh-j teriirg centres, Chicago, Kansas City, St. Louis and Omaha, slaughtered rn the five years frem 1S97 to 1901, inclu- sive, but 2.1 per cent, more cattle j than in the picieaing five years. And these cities net only slaughter 03 per: cent, of the country's total of whole- j sale establishments, but they may be considered as fairly representative of general conditions in the industry. Average weight may also be taken mtoj account as further modifying these fig- i tires. In the latter period under review tne average in Chicago was 107fi, as i against 1080 during the five years be- fore: and if this tendency prevailed elsewhere, as it is reasonably to sup pose. although the figures are not available, the gross weight of the cat tie slaughtered during the latter five years in the four beef cities was only 1.2 per lent, more than during the for mer. "It seems that several years of low pi ices had discouraged the raising of cattle. There was an advance in the early fall of 1-889 which tended to bring into the market ail available animals. The next spring prices declined some what, but since that time there has been a gradual advance, and until the end of 1901, a heavy marketing of cat tle. The census office makes a state ment that there was probably a de crease of about 7 per cent, in the num ber of cattle between 1800 end 1900, so it is clear that there was no increase in the number of cattle to keep pace with the increase of population, to say nothing of the more effective individual demand or of the increasing exporta tion. The census, in its report on wholesale slaughtering and meat pack ing. moreove.% shows an increase of but 2 per cent, for the decade. It is also probable that-during the 10 years there had been a gradual absorption of the business by the wholesale slaugh tering and packing concerns, so that they represented a greater percentage of the total in 1900 than in 1890. West ern dressed beef is now soi l almost ex clusively in many towns which only a few years ago depended on local sup plies. This brings the matter down, to the short corn ciop of 1901. which has doubtless given an acute twist to con ditions which had long been ripening. The corn crop was less than three fourths the size of the cron of either 1900 or of 1899. This meant high prices.” make sure of his position. The area of grazing land in the West has hecome less, fewer cattle have been raised, the corn to fat them has cost more, the demand for beef has increased with the increasing population and the great prosperity, the export of cattle has been large to meet a growing foreign demand—all these things have contri buted to make beef high. One of these causes at least Is likely to be perma nent. The cattle ranges are being en tered upon by settlers and unless the cattle-growing industry is more exten sively taken up by the farmers of the New Kngl.md and Middl1 states there will not be enough beef to meet as large a demand as has hitherto been made, on the other hand, the high price will cause, in fact is causing a de crease in consumption. A great corn crop is expected, and this should make fattening material cheaper. It is quite possible that the large operators in beef have found in these natural con ditions an opportunity for manipula tion of prices which they have improv ed. They are shrewd men and not in clined to throw away chances, but it is not just to burden them with a larger share of the responsibility than is their due.

It must seem natural for York county to have a murder mystery on its hands. Good-by to the soldier boys. We hope they will all come again to Camp Hill in 1903. What a world of difference if it were a hostile fleet making a real attack on our coast. Usually so courteous and tactful, Senator Frye might have let the denial of that engagement rumor come from the lady. The stories and anecdotes with which Secretary Shaw enlivens his speeches are all new ones in Maine and ought to become popular on the stump, this fall. It is announced that the date on which the Bath Board of Trade will entertain the State organization will be Sept. 10. It is the occasion of the annual meeting of the State Board. A million dollar bridge across the Kennebec at Bath! It will be in the line of progress and that is the line over which the Maine Central travels. Biddeford Journal: The agitation of the question as to which Maine city will do the honors on State day in Old Home week next year ought to begin before long. There is a possibility that difficulty may be experienced in con vincing Portland that she should “fol low her hand.” But she does it so politely that, really, the honor should be settled upon her for life. Ellsworth thought that the burglars dynamiting the safe at the railroad station were boys shooting skunks. Skunk hunting must be strenuous business in Hancock county. How ever, on second thought, it is any where. President Roosevelt will have a con siderable retinue made up of personal attendants and newspaper men on his Maine trip. The addresses the Presi dent is to make and all the incidents of the journey are evidently to be served up to newspaper readers in full. Inasmuch as everything said and done is to be so thoroughly reported, it is incumbent upon local committees to see to its that their share of the work is done in season and in a way that can bring no reproach upon the community they represent. There is always an abundant opportunity on such occasions for something to go wrong unless all the details are care fully thought out and arranged be forehand. The Machias Republican says that Mrs. Della Munson, the most expert female stage driver and perhaps, the only star route female driver, in the State, came in on time, Wednesday, having relieved her husband again to give him an opportunity to look after the farm crops. In times past Mrs. Munson has undauntingly assumed the reins and made her 40 mile trips, on time, in the most inelement seasons, to keep tlie business moving, when her husband was incapacitated by severe rheumatic attacks. Thousands of tourists are flocking into the State every day, while, al though of course, a great many are going home, they are hut a drop in the bucket compared with those who are coming into Maine. Trains are crowd ed every day, and extra cars are neces sary to accommodate the immense throngs. A gentleman from Poland [Spring said: “I was told that there are about 1000 on the waiting list, trying to get into the Poland Spring hotel. It is packed to the doors and has been ever since it opened. The Kickers are try ing to take care of their great swarms of guests by distributing them among other hotels, until there is an opening at Poland Spring." Aroostook is famous for its crops and not only are the county's potatoes fatter than those to be found in all the United States, but so are the kids grown in that soil. Head what the Sleepy Hollow correspondent of the Fort Fairfield Review reels off: "We have never heard that the pork from Sleepy Hollow or the product of its buck wheat commanded a higher price than those from elsewhere in Aroostook: but it would almost seem they were worth more, considering the children we rear here. Let me mention a few. First there is Earl Waldron, a little boy of 13 summers, but then he weighs 146 pounds. Then there is Miss Grace Avery, a little maiden of 13 years, weighing 127 pounds. Miss Jennie Eastman. 12 years old. only weighs 116 pounds, while Miss Kate Conant, 13 years old. tips the beam at 114. Master Norman Ashby has only commenced to grow but at 2% years his weight is 44 pounds. Yes, our buckwheat must be of a superior quality.” New York Tribune: The girls of Pennsylvania have a pastime that to be popular needs only to be known. A young woman, just back from an out ing at KeneDunkport, Me., complained that the place was lonely. She said: “We had moonlight buckboard rides, sails and picnics, but not a girl there did any twosing.” "Twosing?” some one asked. “What on earth is twos ing? Is it a new game?” "It's old as the hills.” she made answer. “Twos ing is—well twosing is anything which has just two people in it. You can twose on a hotel veranda, or at a pic nic. if the chaperon isn't too wretched ly eagle-eyed. You can twose almost anywhere, except up in Maine, for a girl can’t twose without a man. I suppose you might call it just pairing off. but in Pennsylvania we call it twosing. and the word fits so much better than any other expression for it." LIGHT AND AIRY. Malspropis. She- Did you get my love letter this moming Ht—Yes, bat when the postman tout me he had.a letter for me 1 thought it was from Jack Borroughs.

A coach atnd four he’d have, ho swore, if only things wont right. And now lie’s gone to buy the coach— Quadruplets came last night. Also a Foe. “When I went in to speak to Prof. Deepe about my love for his daughter." said Jack Gayboy, "he didn’t seem to un derstand me at first." "Alt! replied the Professor's admirer, "he has a soul above suitors and such things.*” “Well, it wasn't long before ho show d a disposition to have a sole beneath one suitor, but the suitor was too quick for him.’" His Experience. Merchant—See here! I wish you i wouldn’t bother me. 1 told you sonr* time ago that 1 was already insured to the limit.

Every youth will become a yeoman in some cause. In time of trouble refuse the devil's proffered help. The‘bitterest rod may drive to the sweetest comfort. What we gain in sentiment v;e are apt 1 to lose in sense. Conscience is n good watch, but it will not wind itself. Aptitude in prayer may depend on alti- tude in practice. Too many persons are looking for an impersonal religion. The miracle is the flash that comes when God touches man. The Pible owes its place to its power and not to our polemics. it is sometimes convenient to mistake prejudice for conscience. God's church is His great irrigation system for the water of life. We are commanded to rejoice in one another as well as ourselves. What God sends down depends a good deal on what we will give up. Culture will never eliminate the marks of the Cross from Christ. The analysis that destroys is too high a price to pay for our knowledge. True love for God cannot be satisfied with selfish pleasure in His presence. God brings His servants to the side of His Son by the path of His sufferings. Falsehood turns its back cm truth and he, who looks through one may often see the ether. Take care to fill your pulpit with loving piety and your pews will till up with liv ing people. Pointed Paragraphs. A cat never cries over split milk. A man has to learn to like babies and eat olives. Dyspepsia sours a lot of the milk of human kindness. Money and poor relations are the two roots of some evils. When poverty looks in at the window love vacates the roost. Occasionally a girl marries her ideal but he soon outgrows it. It takes the plowshare of effort to open lip tile ^irrows of success. Selfish people never laugh unless they can do sc at the expense of others. Often the spirit of perseverance strikes a man hardest when he is in the wrong. Death may not be contagious, yet when a mtin dies politically his railroad pass also expires. Some men frankly admit they can't sing, hut the man never lived v.'ho didn’t think lie had a keen sense of humor. Reflections of a Bachelor. A stout heart wins harder fights than a strong arm. Not even a club has the power to give a hint to an untactful person to stop talk ing. It takes a woman to tread on a man's corns while she is pretending to try to kiss his lips. One of the new-fangled ideas about hos pitality is to insult one's guests by abus in'* tin it- friends. The. amount of money that some womer think they can afford to put into stock ings would enable them to wear under clothes that wouldn't fall to pieces. —New York Press. Personal Notes.

A YOUNG LADY’S LIFE SAVED. At Panama, Colombia, by Chamber* Iain’s Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy. Dr. Chas. H. Utter, a prominent phy sician, of Panama, Colombia, in a re cent letter states: ‘‘Last March I had as a patient a young lady sixteen years of age, who had a very bad attack of dysentery. Everything I prescribed for her proved ineffectual and she was growing worse every hour. Her par ents were sure she would die. She had become so weak that she could n it turn over in bed. What to do at this critical moment was a study for me, but I thought of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and as a last resort prescribed it. The most wonderful result was effected. Within eight hours she was feeling much bet ter; inside of three days she was upon her feet and at the end of one week was entirely well.” For sale by John Coughlin, 177 Water street; J. C.

Bui it’s a most uncomfortable day or two We don’t mean to abuse our stomachs but we all do it more or less. We see things we want and can’t resist the longing for them. When it’s too late we regret our rashness. But there's a way to escape the conse quences of such indiscretions. A dose of a good digestant like Kodol Dys pepsia Cure will relieve you at once. Indigestion is always due to the same cause. Your stomach is too weak to digest what you eat. It needsrest. You can’t rest it by going without food. That would mean starvation. But Kodol Dyspepsia Cure will rest it. It doe9 the stomach’s work. In the mean time the tired organ is gaining fresh strength. Before long it will be as strong as ever. You don’t have to diet. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure will di gest any kind of wholsome food. “I had stomach trouble four years," saw Geo. ILOolbath, Alpena. Midi., “whloh was so bad that at times I was forced to remain In bed.

She has the company equipped with elaborate costumes and a chorus of 30 careful and well trained voices which she has has been complimented upon as being the handsomest chorus ever appearing with any opera company. The Wilbur Opera Company needs no recommendation, as it is in its 2-th year of a pronounced success.

A large number of the musical peo ple. of Augusta assembled at the Con gregational church, Friday afternoon, to listen to the organ recital so gen erously given by Mr. Sealy of New York. The program was very varied and in teresting. and the hour passed all too quickly. Mr. Sealy is an organist of high rank and possesses a. most sym pathetic touch, combined with great brilliancy and clearness of execution: his fine pedal work and skilful regis trations were especially m&rked. Mr. Sealy has the grateful thanks of all who were so fortunate as to hear him. This is the 1,1st day of the Great Midsummer sale at The People's Store and it will pay. all interested in low prices to call.

CAMP HILL The Second Regiment Left for Home, Yesterday. Annual Muster for This Year Is Now at An End. Officials Highly Pleased With Success of the Encampment. •'amp Hill is now deserted, the troops of the 2d Regiment having departed for their homes after heing in tamp since Monday afternoon. All the com panies belonging in the eastern part of the State left the grounds in the fore noon. while the companies from Gardi ner and Lewiston waited til! after die-, tier. Lath and T>-wiston waited till af ter dinner. Co. K of Farmington took ihe trolley cars to Winthrop and went home from there by steam cars. Com panies K and C marched into camp, but preferred to ride home. It had been the intention of Col. Newcomb to inarch the regiment to the i apitnl before departing from the chy and perform the ceremony of saluting the flags in the State House rotunda but on account of the rain of the night before and the consequent muddy con dition of the roads the ceremony was omitted and the regiment marched di rect from the grounds to the depot. The soldieis made a fine appearance as they marched down Rines H’-!. through Water street to Bridge and down Commercial street to th'- depot. Maj. Gen. Farnham headed the line, attended by other members of the Gov ernor's staff. Col. Newcomb and liis officers handled the troops in splendid shape. At the depot the companies joined in cheering the officers and cheering each other. Then the line was dismissed and the boys for the cast got aboard th*-ir siieeia! train, which pulled out of the depot at just I o'clock. The regular trains took itv companles to Gardiner and Lewiston. Brig. Gen. Hoyt is much pleased at the success which h is attended the en tire muster this year..and speaks words of deserved praise for the officers and men of both regiments. He believ**s that much good work has been done during the encampment and that :t cannot fail to result in benefit to the National Guard of Maine. Gen. Hoyt is proud of the fact that before the camp broke Capt. S. A. t.’lo man, who has been in attendance as government inspector and instructor, presented him with the "swagger stick which he genial captain had brought home from the Philippines. As a souvenir of *'•11111) Hill Gen. Hoyt w ill always prize the gift and will ever remember the donor. Capt. Cloman regretted the breaking of camp, for he had become acquainted with many good fellows whom he was pleased to meet during the two weeks of his sojourn in Augusta, and he was sony to pari w ith them, perhaps never to meet again in this life. Standing on! the depot platform, yesterday, as the troops were marching into the cars, he said: "The life of a soldier is not all pleas ure. There are those nun and offi, 1 s. inanv of whom I have iteisonally met and liked, and whom I may le ver st-e again. This is mi of the features of army experience which is not pleas ant. I have hid a delightful sojourn among tin ml ople of Maine, and 1 cannot speak too-highly of the courtesy shown me by the officers of the Na tional Guard of the State.” ("apt "Ionian left on the afternoon train, yester lay. to join his regiment which is stationed at Plattsburg.

The doctor had given up all hopes of recovery. I took a bottle of Chamberlain s Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy to the house, telling them I felt sure it would do good if used according to directions. In two days’ time the child had fully recovered, and is now (nearly a year since) a vigorous, healthy girl.

Some months ago I suffered with neu rasthenia isystemic catarrh caused by too close application to office work. My system seemed worn out and I felt far from well.

The Kennebec Jnght Heat Co. is receiving ordt Canton Augusta with their ladies who visited Hock land and Vinalhaven returned on No. 71. yesterday morning. Th“ members ,,t the party passed two very pleasant days and voted the trip the most enjoy able that the Canton had ever taken. There was not a slow minute from the time they left Augusta until they re turned. There was something to make .every moment an enjoyable one. The I members of Canton Lafayette of K».-k land and Canton Vinalhaven of Vinal I haven, did themselves proud in enter taining and providing for the comfort of those who took in the trip. When the Augusta Chevaliers arrived in Rockland they were met by Canton La fayette, accompanied by (len. c. K. Weeks and staff. A band was also present to greet the visitors. From this time on everything was done for the visitors that could be done. A short parade was made, after which all re- j turned to the Thorndike for dinner. The visitors were taken on a trip i to the lime quarries and later to Thomaston. where they inspected the State prison. At o clock they went to Crescent Beach, where a general good time was had. The next day they went down the harbor to 1 inalhaven and were again received with a hearty welcome. The day was passed there very pleasantly through the courtesy of the Vinalhav -n Chev i licrs. Vinalhaven. one of the most in teresting places on the Maine coa-d. was inspected and all the njoyabl things that go to make up a delightful day by the seaside belonged to the Vis itors. A ball game between Vinalhaven and Camden was witnessed in the af ternoon and the ladies of Ocean Bound Hcbckah Lodge, No. 67. served one of the finest suppers that it has ever be n the privilege of the Augusta Chevaliers to partake. One of the last things done by th( party as they left Rockland on their return home was to give tlin cheers for the Rockland Military Bat'd which accompanied them on the trip to Vinalhaven. i SEEN IN LONDON. Observations and Comments by an Augusta Boy. Conditions of Laboring Classes as Compared with Americans. The English Love of Sports—Ameri cans in London. The Journal enjoyed an interview re cently, with Wililam T. Noble, who, since last fall, has been in the employ o* H. Gannett in London. His visit Save him opportunity for observing many f the wrinkles and caprices of London life, and the conventionalities of the Britishers, which he interesting ly contrasts with the more up-to-date and breezy fashion of life so character istic- of Americans.. The Journal read ers wiil doubtless be interested in the following account.of London life as he experienced it: "How do the wages of the laborer in London compute with the wages if the American?” queried the scribe. "The English laborer's wages are srr.i!l«>r thar his American cousin's, but the Yankee can consistently expect more pay. as he undoubtedly accom plishes much more during the cours" ot a day than the average Briton. There are several reasons for the American excelling, the very lirst of which is the climate. Bracing ali bi aces a man's mind and increases his ambition and capacity for work. Therefore the American workman feel ing snappier than the Englishman has more interest in his firm's business. If ids concern can put up a building quicker than a competitor he is cor respondingly as proud as the head of the company. The American when he awakes in the morning is wide awake al once. Hut the Englishman. That smoke-laden atmosphere full of uneon sumed carbon which he has been breathing: all night hasn't done him the good that fresh pure air would have done and it takes him longer to wake ui and pull himself together. As a consequence, he doesn’t get to work until after S o’clock in the morning, anti ho is perhaps a half hour getting right down to work.” “Is there as great an interest in sports in England as in this country?” “The interest in all sorts of sport is far more general in England than here, every class following the cricket games, horse races, football matches, etc., with untiring devotion. Going into the city on the morning train you will see every other man reading Sporting Times, The Winner, Daily Sport, or some other exponent of recreation. An American capitalist was arranging some business deal, a short time ago, with a prominent busi ness man involving a million dollars. Just as the final arrangemnts were about to be made the gentleman jumped up, saying. ‘You'll have to ex cuse me. I have a very important shooting engagement and I mustn’t be late. Good day.’ Is that like an American? Oh, no. There are a num ber right here in Augusta who would rather go gunning than do anything else, but it's business before pleasure here: pleasure before business, when you g* t the other side of the Atlantic. I remember an incident which amused me greatly and which illustrates the inconsistency of some of the Lon donites. Mr. O. T. Y'erkes who is put ting the underground railways in Lon don was being Interviewed by a re porter on the invasion of American capital into England. The interview lasted until 2 o’clock which is Lon don's holiday hour on Saturday, busi ness practically being suspended from that time and everybody enjoying the rest of the day as a holiday. The Parliament clock "Big Ben" tolled the hour of freedom just as Mr. Y'erkes was saying, "The Americans—" but he got no farther for the reporter’s hand was on the door knob and with a graceful good day he was off before the echo of the striking clock had died away. He had a ticket to a matinee and he didn’t want to be late." "How about the temperature in Lon don?" "The temperature is much higher in winter than here although the cold is keenly felt owing to the dampness. The mercury rarely falls below 10 above zero and we had no snow till last wintef. Foreigners who are used to* warm houses find very little comfort in the Knslish homes during the cold weather as the heating apparatus con sisting of coal grate fireplaces is quite unable to properly heat a room. The dampness of the winter penetrates into the house and certainly more efficient heaters than these fireplaces are re quired to make a house comfortable. Splendid English mansions are built with no thought of properly heating them.” ”1 suppose there are many things to be said in favor of London, are there not ‘‘Yes. there are many good things to bo said in favor of it. Of course it abounds with historical interst and too you can get a shave for 4 cents and a hair cut for S cents. There are numer ous parks throughout the city, ht lutifully laid out. where one can find a place to breathe and also enjoy band concerts. A person with a scientific turn of mind can find months and months of profitable pleasure in the magnificent museums and exhibitions such as only London can boast of. The British Museum, which is probably the finest in the world, contains enough of interest to keep a student busy for months, even years. Then the Natural History Museum, in which I was par ticularly interested, is a whole world in itself. Here you find the animal world represented from the giraffe, whale and elephant'to the smallest in sect. not sitting up like clothing store dummies, but in natural groups with beautiful background^ and surround ings. For instance one whole wall represents a sea cliff where hundreds ot gulis and other sea birds are nest ing; some carrying food to their young, others pluming themselves or attending to other household duties.” "What places of amusement are th* most generously patronized by the people?” "This summer has brought an ex hibition at Earls t’ourt (one of Gui don's pleasure resorts) called “Paris in London. where just as much enjoy THE PRESIDENT Of the City Council, Wilkesbarre, Pa., Cured of Rheumatism. Col. Wm. J. Harvey, a president of Wilkesbarre’s city council, who will long be remembered for his great work for the city, was once a mere physical wreck, torn in every muscle and nerve from the frightful pains caused by rheumatism. He consulted the best physicians, went abroad, took mud baths, and almost every known treat ment for the disease. One of the city officials had had a very similar experi ence and Dr. David Kennedy's Fa vorite Remedy had cured him, so he recommended this great kidney medi cine to his friend, and Col. Harvey is today a well man, hale and hearty. In his own abrupt way he states his case: Dr. David Kennedy. Dear Sir:—This to certify that I am permanently cured of rheumatism by the use of Dr. David Kennedy's Fa vorite Remedy. WM. J. HARVEY. Nothing could he more direct or more to the point than this simple statement. Rheumatism is but another name for uric acid poisoning which is caused primarily by diseased kidneys. Cure your kidneys and the rheumatism dis appears.
