Said British Cheers Went to

WAKM WELCOME AT. COLOMBO.
Committee Called and Presented Illm
"With an Aililrem ami a Silver Casket.
One Tlioii.md rounds or Tea Given the
Creir Admiral' Health Fair.
Colombo, Ceylon, June 23. Au aide-de-camp
representing the governor of
Oevloii, Right Hon. Sir Joseph West
Rid'geway-, boarded the Olympia iu or
der to welcome Admiral Dewey, aud
Colonel Savage, commanding tho
troops, called later. The visits were re
turned by Admiral Dewey. Ho to re
ceived at the jetty by a guard of honor
and, amidst cheering, drove iu the gov
ernor' carriage to breakfast with Colo
nol Savage. The admiral afterward
booked rooms at the Gallofaco hotel
and returned on board tho Olympia.
There he received a deputation repre
senting the Planters' association and
the chamber of commerce and was pre
sented with a t'lvcr casket and an ad
dress ns a memento of his visit.
The presentation of the casket to Ad
miral Dewey was made on board the
Olympia, instead of in the council
chamber, because his doctor had for
bidden him to participate in any offi
cial function.
The delegates also presented 1,000
pounds of tea to the crew of the Olym
pia. The admiral, replying to the address
of welcome, said he wished he could
reply in adequate terms, reciprocating
the sentiments expressed. But, he ad
ded, he spoke from his heart when he
said he deeply appreciated the welcome.
Admiral Dewey added that he would
have tho very acceptable present of tea
distributed -ns desired, incidentally men
tioning that lie was a lifelong tea
drinker himself aud arsurlng the dele
gation that the address would be read at
"muster" and afterward framed and
preserved. The casket, he remarked, he
would always keep on his table, and lie
told the delegates that he would report
the nutter to his government aud de
scribed the cordiality of his reception.
Continuing, Admiral Dewey remarked:
"That cheer raised on the jetty when I
landed went to the hearts of all of us.
"We are 1,400 fiom home, but thatcheer
will be heard iu America, although the
way in which it lias touched me 1 shall
never be able to fully express.
"The two nations were never so
closely allied by mutual sympathy aud
appreciation as now. The American
people realized this during the late war,
and you can imagine how all those who
were at Manila and met Sir Edward
Chichester (commander of a British
first-class cruiser) and his gallant com
rades hold that feeling very deeply." .
. A general conversation followed and,
after toasting the "Anglo-Saxon
Union," and the prosperity ot the two
countries, the delegation departed.
Admiral Dewey now says it is im
probable that ho will go to Kandy and
that he lntendstaying in Colombo.
, The admiral will remain in Ceylon
about a week. Ho said he had a good
voyage from Singapore and that his
health was fairly good.

Miss LucyTnckex, the daughter
of a prominent farmer of Versailles,
Ind., was the victim of nervous
prostration. Most of the time she
was confined to bed, and was on
the verge of St. Vitus' dance. It
was a pitiful case which medical
science failed to conquer. Finally
a doctor prescribed Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Pale People. Her
father said:
"We began giving the pills at
once, and the -next day we could
see a change for the better in her.
We gave her one pill after each
meal until she was entirely well.
She has not been sick a day since.
We think the cure almost miracu
lous. Frank Tuckek.Mts. F. Tucker.

duly sworn, state that the fore
going is true in every particular.

Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People
contain, in a condensed form, all the ele
ments necessary to give new life and rich
ness to the" blood and restore shattered
nerve. They are an unfailing specific for
such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neural
gia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the
after-effects of the grip, palpitation of the
heart, pale and sallow complexions, and all
forms of weakness either in male or female.
Or. Williams' Pink Pills tor Pale People are never
sold by the dozen or hundred, but always In pack

m army camps about completed tho col
lection of statiics and the members of
, the board hope to have their informa
tion charted and tabulated by the end
of July. This board was thought to
be the first that was ever appointed to
study the projiagation of disease in
army camps by the history of the indi
vidual regiments. The board weut fur
ther, however, taking the company as
the unit ;nd tracing the history of all
intestinal disorders and all cases of ma
laria and fever of every sort that ap
peared on the .sick report. Owing to
the fact that some ot the regiments
were alleged to be infected with typhoid
fever germs leforo coming to the large
camps, it was necessary to trace their
history back to their state camps and
even to trace the history of individuals
before they entered the service.
The report will indicate that the
water supply had practically little to do
with .the spread of typhoid. This is con
trary to all previous medical theory in
typhoid propagation, The appearance
aud spread of the disease, the report
will say, indicates that it was transmit
ted through the atmosphere by the wind
tarrying about dust containing the dried
germs of typhoid and by the agency of
flies. The report of a certain British
medical officer with one of the British
expeditionary forces where there was an
epidemic of camp typhoid in spite of the
fact that the troops used only distilled
water will bo quoted.

KAUTZ'S ACTS APPROVED.
Tills Prevent Successful More Tor Dam
ages, as Threatened by the
Germans.
WAmnTON-, Juue 23 Admiral
Kautz lvpoited his arrival at Sau Fran
cisco by telegraph to the navy depart
ment, but made no report on Samoan'
affairs. This probably will bo coinmit
fed to thj mails. His official superiors
are fully satisfied with his conduct
while at Apia. The admiral retains
assignment as commander-iu-chiet of
the forces oa tho Pacific station, and
the Philadelphia will be retaiued iu
commission, though necessary repairs
and docking will be made at once.
There was a disposition in all diplo
matic quarters concerned in Samoa to
accept the action of tho high commis
sion as satfsfactory, mainly because the
commission had been on the ground,
had heard all the evidence, and was
presumaDly best able to determine the
means of adjusting the many conflict
ing interests.
The secretary of state received a dis
patch from the Hon. Bartlett Tripp.
United States commissioner at Samoa,
saying that peace had been restored in
the island; the commission had sus
tained the decision of Chief Justice
Chambers in the contested case of the
election of the king; that Malietoa Tanu
has resigned; tho kingship was to bo
abolished and a provisional government
establislied.
Admiral Kautz's first action upon ar
riving at Apia- was to decide that Chief
Justice Chambers must be maintained.
The commission having found that 'Mr.
Chambers' decision was right, it follows
tliat the admiral's action was also cor
rect, and so the talk of preference of
claims against the United States for
damages resulting from his action will
come to nothin.
LIQU0E NEGK0ES' OTJESE.
Maryland Witness So Declared South
Carolinan Said Free Silver Would
Aid Agriculture.
Washington, June 23. Joseph B.
Ager, president of the Maryland state
grange, Patrons of Husbandry, was be
fore the industrial commission as a wit
ness. He said that a trust among the
farmers such as was suggested by Mr.
Havemeyer was impracticable owing to
the difficulty of getting the farmers to
hold up prices. Speaking of colored
labor, he said it wis nurehaole because
of the natural indolence .and indiffer
ence of individuals of the race. Liquor
he regarded as tho great bone of that
people and responsible for nine-tenths
of the crimes committed by them.
'Mr. Ager considered the condition of
the average farmer as worse than it
was 20 years ago, but he believed money
invested in farming safer than in other
lines of husiuess. He attributed the
number of abandoned farms in the
states to the fact that they were owned
by noii'residents.
Mr. Ager said the grange was not so
prosperous in point of numbers as for
merly, aud ho attributed the falling off
largely to the fact that the grange
could notbe used in politics.
L. W. Youmaus of South Carolina
occupied the witness stand during the
afternoon session. He said the agricult
ural interest of the south was greatly
depressed and he attributed the depres
sion to the fact that silver was not rec
ognized as a money metal. He said
there had not been an increase of the
volume of money to correspond with
the increase of population. As a con
sequence there had been a general de
preciation of values. He was proceed
ing to develop his views upon this point
wnen Major Farquhar made a point of
order against the .character of the testi
mony and the point was sustained.
Mr. Youmaus also favored a lower
tariff.

The brilliant complexions of women in the more exclusive circles of New
York society are not explained by the theory that associates beauty and idle
ness. In fact, many leaders of the world of fashion are hard workers. Yet
they keep their good looks even when they are old. How do they manage
it? THE MISSES BELL, of 78 Fifth Avenue, New York, themselves con
nected with some of the rtost noted and honored families in the metropolis,
have answered the question. 'They have prepared for the use of women in
general, five preparations for improving the complexion and the hair.

was shattered when tho strikers, at a
meeting rejected by a unanimous vote
the proposition submitted by the com

The proposition of the company
stated that it was ready and willing, to
take back iuto its employment, such' of
its employes as its business demanded,
aggregating at the present time 80 per
oe it of such employes, and as vacau-cio-.
occurred would" gie preference to

the stnkj would come, and the action
ot the strikers came as a surprise. After
rejecting tho proposition ot tho coni

The Story of a Successful Failure. 0
BY ED3IUXD DAY. I
His father felt boiue disappointment
when he was born, for, itrango to say,
he wanted a git I. You see, there cie
two boys in tlie family already, noisy,
boisterous boys, n- full of animal spirits
as boys can be, so the arrhal of the lit
tle, Melting, red bundle of nerve"! was not
celebrated with as much eclat as that of
a girl would have been.
They called him William. Later lie
was called Will, and, by the different
evolutions which a boy's name goes
Uitougb, lie mioii became just plain Bill,
and as Bill lie trotted on toward man
hood, through college aud out iuto the
noild, a full Hedged law jer William
Howard 'Ximherlake to his clients (they
were ery fen), bur plain Bill to his
friends (tln-y were many).
William Howard TimberlaUe, being
duly admitted to. the bar, hung out a
large gilt s-ign and waited for clients.
Clients are a very mean lot of people to
catch,
Bill we will call him Bill for the pur-
pose of brevity Bill never even caught
a client, so after awhile he was voted a
failure by his paternal parent and, in
a Ia l-m ft f Ys-As1 n
That one rMlnnie Lowl" Mnl
nie's eyes Bill was a Sucre, and. con-
scions of this fact, Bill didn't care what
the rest thought. Bill's brothers were
successes. The eldest worked up from a
bank teller to a president of a banking
concern, and he helped the next eldest
brother to climb up to a very consequen
tial position on 'Change. Bill, being a
failure and not competent for any posi
tion inhis brother's eyes, w'as allowed
to hustle for himself.
Suddenly Dimie Fortune, just for a
mere whim, knocked at Bill's door. Bill
never even got up to open the said door,
so Fortune pushed it open and sat down
on Bill's old sofa. -
Dame Fortune has many disguises.
This time she assumed that of a very
wrinkled and peculiar old man, a saf
fron colored, dyspeptic looking individu
al and a man who had evidently resided
in the tropics.
"Young man," said the old gentleman,
"I've been watchin yer tryin ter git up
in the world fur some time, an I've come
ter the conclusion that yer need pnshin,
same as a boat does' when she gits stuck
on the ways. Been ter see jer father
about yer and likewise jer biothers, an,
from what they say, yer cau't be much
account." Bill allowed that he wasn't
and thanked the old gentleman for being
that much interested in him.
Then the old man unfolded a plan. He
wanted the controlling interest in a cer
tain railroad of which he was a stock
holder. The stock of this railroad, by
the way. is generally quoted at the top of
the list, and many people were interested
in keeping it there. The old man wanted
it to come to a certain figure, and he fix
ed up a plan which, with Bill's help, he
meant to woik in order to biing the stock
to that point, where he could gather it all
in.
A few weeks later Bill confided to his
father that he thought he would try his
hick as a stock broker, and, despite the
paternal protest, Bill became a member
of the New York Stock Exchange, and
his slgu ns a lawyer disappeared. from
the Temple Court building. Then Bill,
who was unknown, of eourse, to the boys

it to all who were willing to take it and
the stock market wavered, fluctuated

extremely uncertain one, and, point by
point; it dropped until people who were
short scrambled for cover. Bill's father
and his two In others came to him one
night and asked him what on earth lie
was doing and for whom he was doing it
but they did not find out, and they were
very angry, for they all had some inter- i
est in tho mnrket, and Bill's actions were
not in.accoul with that interest.
Presently a pauic came along, and ev
erything dropped dropped like a bucket
into a well, with a splash and a rattle of
the chain.
The elder brother's bank was affected
and stopped payment. The next brother
was caught long on a certain railrontl '
stock and was compelled to unload at j
ruinous prices. BUI gathered in all he j
wanted of that stock bought it out-
tight and when things cleared up again
Bills client owbed the controlling niter-
est in tlie big railroad, and Bill was a
millionaire. The rest of the family were
"busted" completely "busted."
Then it was that they realized Bill
was worth something, after nlL,
The little old man grinned until the
wrinkles were almost all stretched out
of his yellaw skin. Then he settled up
with his banker and went away.
