Peocle used to think that
gestion was to stop eating, and many think so still. But tha
only trouble in that kind of treatment is the fact that to stop
eating means to stop liTinj, and wecan hardly call that a cure.
But since Kodoi, Dysphasia Cube has become known the whole
method of treating indigestion has been changed. K digests
what you. eat and permits you to eat all the good food you need
and giTes the stomach perfect rest; and its use constitutes a
plain common sense method of curing dyspepsia and indigestion.

Out of Fuel on Trip to Venezuela and
Once Kan Aground.
New York. March 5. The ship's com
rany that left this port on January 21,
Jn Jay Gould's former yacht Atalanta,
transformed into the gunboat Restaura

ped with showy naval uniforms and hope
of attaining Venezuelan commissions,
t ave returuned home on the liner Phil
adelphia. They were gone over a month,
although they expected to deliver the
boat to the Venezuelan government in
ten days.
. The yacht was sold to the Venezuelan
government, early in January and con
stitutes the entire Venezuelan navy. Her
armament consisted, when jhe sailed of
four six pounder Hntchkiss puns, a three
I ounder. and two two pounders, and she
vas loaded with ammunition.
Captain Jeremiah Merithew was in
command. Under him were forty-six
men. Slgnor Kebrum went along an the
representative of the South American re
public. The men shipped under a con
tract stipulating that a month's wages
would be paid in any event, and their
passage back. All that would be re
quired of them was to deliver the boat
:ver to the government at La Guayra.
Then they could return or take set vice
In the cause of the republic.
The first night at sea the ship ran Into
a storm which damaged her consider
ably and raged four days. It was de
cided to run into San Juan, but the coal
:ad given completely out before that
( on was reached. The cabin furnishings,
whiea had been in the yacht since the"
days of Jay Gould, were iumped into
the furnaces; fancy wood paneling, por
uers. carpets and tables, and finally the
provisions such of them as would burn
rapidly into the fires.
In tan Juan the Kestaurador lay from
January 3 to .February 6. being repaiied
and refitted. Mere she was joined by
another agent of the government. After
departure from San Juan, according to
the story of one of the crew, the vessel
was ordered to bombard the town of
Carupano, held supposedly by the rebels.
The guns had been trained on the town
when it was learned from a flag that
the town had been recaptured by the
government. Shortly after this a num
ber of prisoners were placed on board
the littie gunboat. Among the prisoners !
was the insurgent general commanding
in that part of the country. He had been
sentenced to be shot, but it had been
decided to send him to La Guayra and
thence to Caracas, where the sentence
w as to be carried out. He was hopelessly
crushed and spoke to nobody. As long
as the boat was visible from the town
3ms wdfe and daughters stod upon a
frigh peak of rocks gazing after him.
The vessel ran aground on the island
of Coche. in the Straits of Margarita.
She staid there until early in the morn
ing of the L'th. She was pulled off by a
tug and a German and a Dutch steamer
that happened along.
On the same day the vessel touched at
three other small ports, two of which
were tVaunda and Cumana. at which
the took on more prisoners and soldiers.
The ship got inot La Guayra on Febru
ary IS. The ship was no sooner in port
and the prisoners and soldiers discharged
than the government put the skipper,
Ids officers and most of the men ashore.
They were paid in Venezuelan silver
w hich was eventually exchanged bv the
authorities at eighty cents on the dollar
into American gold.
Captain .Merithew said that President
Castro inquired of him about John Jacob
Astor's steam yacht Xourmahal, and
that he learned afterward from the min
ister of finance that negotiations were

TO CURE THE GRIP.
Advice of a Famous Physician.

COMING DRAMATIC EYEXTS.
One of New Tork's great successes has
been a version of Nell Qwytn, two sim
ilar versions of which have also captured
the London theater-going public. Con
sequently, Nell Gwynns of all degrees
have sprung up throughout the theatri
cal world. One is Alberta Gallatin, who
is to appear at the Grand tonignt In an
entirely new play, based upon authentic
historical Incidents pertaining to the
reign of King Charles II. cf England.
This romantic drama was written by
Cator Heverin, a young Philadelphian
of dramatic ability, w ho has given to the
stage a work of splendid originality, and
afforded Miss Gallatin an opoprtunity of
making the success of her career as an
actress. Miss Gallatin wears some very
elaborate and expensive dresses, two of
which are imported French creations,
one which is especially striking, having
been designed by Felix of Paris. Miss
Gallatin's ability as an actress Is en
hanced in the popular eye by iier excep
tional beauty and grace.

Washington, March 5. The culminat
ing event of the inaugural festivities was
the inaugurual ball held in the vast
auditorium of the pension office with
men and women distinguished in every
walk of life touching elfcvws. dancing
and mingling with the plain American
citizen. As a spectacular event it was
unparalleled in the history cf inaugural
balls, in the sumptuousness of arrange
ment, in the splendor of decorations and
of marvelous electrical effects, and in
the countless throng taking part in the
spectacle.
When the doors of the great structure
were thrown open at 8 o'clock an eager
crowd besieged every entrance and lines
of carriages stretched into the surround
ing streets and avenues. Platoons of
police officers, mounted and unmounted
guarded the outer entrances, keeping
back the rush of curious spectators and
bringing order out of the tangle of car
riages. Through the long arched en
trances hung with bunting and vines,
passed -the merry, pleasure seeking
throng, the women in luxurious gowns.
with the flash of jewels in their hair and
at their throats. Soon the vast interior
of the building began to take on life
and animation. The early comers busied
themselves in viewing the exquisite
beauties of the scene.
The decorations of the ball room had
yellow for their predominant tone. No
cumbersome effect of light or color was
in evidence but above and on all sides
stretched wavy, rippling canopy of yel
low bunting that covered the walls and
skylight, and w as broken only where the
lining of the president s balcony at tne
west end stood out white in bold relief.
Myriads of yellow electric bulbs glowed
and blinked like fireflies in the garlands
of green that entwined the scores of pil
lars supporting the galleries and shone
out from the stars and bars of the big
American shields which, in the midst of
clusters of American flags, hung high
up in the center of each side of the im
mense crowded hall.
This scheme of decoration with yel
low as the all-predominating color was a
radical departure from the decorative
plan at the last inaugural ball, llien
three great floral bells, studded with col
ored lights, were the most prominent
feature of the work. This year the soft
light effect given by the broad expense
of golden color everywhere was in sharp
and favorable contrast. The subdued
yellow glow from the thousands of frost
ed electric bulbs made- the great hall as
bright as midday. The big fountain in
the center of the hall had a billcwy
mass of the purple bouganillea, the
flower of the Philippines. In the midst
rose tall palms and ferns burying scores
of yellow light blossoms ana around ths
border, fringed with the white spire,
were placed gilded urna of growing
plants and nowers.
In the extreme west of the hall stood
the president's balcony. decked with
groups of Roman wreaths and bunches
of American Beauty roses bound wun
bright colored ribbons. Above the. ex
ecutive's stand flashed a big shield of
hand embroidered silk topped with fine
stuffed specimen of the great America r.
eagle. iiown at the eastern end was
the big stand erected for the musicians.
It comprised an upper and lower story,
the former for the stringed orchestra
and the latter for the accommodation
of the big inaugural chorus and the
brass band. Back of the singers and
musicians was a gilded sounding board
which threw the strains to- all part3
of the big hall. In front hung a beau
tiful design symbolic of the muse of
Melody, in the shaoe of a giant green
lyre with strings of purple ribbon, and
on either side crossed musical instru
ments; on the left a lute and trumpet
and on the right a guitar and pipe ail
fashioned of green lencothe with strings
of purple.
The balustrades and archways pre
sented a brilliant scene. No less than
76 stars formed each of eleven frosted
electric globes, were set between the
arches on the ground floor and shown
radiant through a network of greens
against a background glinting with
powdered glass. Suspended beneath
each star and below draped festoons
of smilax, were .shimmering trailers of
green and electric bulbs, tipped with a
yellow globe. The gilt pillars were en
shrouded in vines and greens, and
above the blight circlets of light that
crowned them were placed invisible
boxes of growing tulips, daffodils, aza
lias, and jonquils. In the second bal
cony the same scheme of decoration was
carried out. excepting that in lieu of
the stars were hung electric lights in
clusters of three, covered with soft yel
low transparent paper and producing a
beautiful effect. Back under the balcon
ies on the ground and second floors,
wreaths of green were hung at regular
intervals, linked by loops of vines and
smilax.
Twenty-six additional posts had been
placed on the top balconv, each on---surmounted
by a glowing bulb of light.
Between them and bordering the rail
ing of the balcony all the way around,
were boxes of cut and growing' flowers
In great profusion of color.
Two endless chains of light studded
green below the balconies looped and
swung completely around the immense
hall, each loop end a hive of brilliant
yenow giooes, each trailing streamer'
alive with tiny glowlights.
Off to the side, on the second bal
cony, were the president's and vice
president's rooms, the diplomats' room
and the forty other rooms, appropri
ately embellished for public reception
and promenade. The president's room
was draped entirely in white and made
beautiful with pink ribbons, orchids and
greens. The other rooms held to the all
pervading yellow, decorated with flags,
flowers and smilax. In the diplomatic
room tne nags or all nations were
clustered and intertwined, and lent a
brilliant background for the gorgeous
uniforms and regalia of the diplomatic
officials. Alongside the main building
had been built a large dining hall, deco
rated in red and white and hung with
greens.
The expense of the decorations entire
is set down at about $45,000. The floral
and electric decorations came to nearly
$20,000. there being no less than 15.000
electric lights involved in the Illumina
tion. The United States Marine band ad
an orchestra of over a hundred piefes
were stationed at one end of the hall.
and for an hour before the arrival of the
presidential party played patriotic aiis.
The presidential party arrived at 10-15
o'clock. They were preceded bv a glit
tering array of officers in full uniform,
and were escorted to the private office of
commissioner fcvans, which had been
lavishly decorated. The nresident
bowed and smiled as he passed through
tne throng, senator and Mrs. Hanna.
Lieut. General and Mrs. Miles, several
Justices of the supreme court of the
United States with their wives and a
number of the cabinet circle joined the
party upstairs. TJie crowds on the mam

A New York Alderman's Experience.
Hon. Joseph A. Flinn, alderman Fifth
District, writes from 104 Christopher
street. New York City, as follows:
"When a pestilence overtakes our
people we take - precaution as a nation
to preserve the citizens against the dread
disease.
"La grippe haa entered thousands of
our homes this fall, and I noticed that
the people who used Peruna were quick

on doctors' prescriptions, spent weeks in
room for the grand march, and the band
was ready to break into the opening
strains of the march from "Tann-
hauser," but word came that Mrs. Mc-
Kiuley was indisposed, and that the
president would remain by her side. The
march consequently was abandoned.
The band struck up Straus' "Blue Dan
ube." and the first regret of the as
semblage at missing the grand march,
with the president and the first lady of
the land at Its head, gave way before
the whirl of gavetv on the ball room
floor. Vice President and Mrs. Roosevelt
arrived about the time the president
came in. After paying their respects to
