In the discussion following the re
sent college boat races, as to the
stroke most apt to win, the point was
made that a gain of one inch on each
stroke pulled would mean a gain of
about a boat’s length in a race of four

many an encounter. In other words,
take care of the inches, and the feet
will take care of themselves.
A learned Missouri judge has decid
ed that slot machines are not gambling
devices in the eye of the law, and he
cannot see any more harm in playing
them than there is in taking a whirl at
the church grab bag or the elite pro
gressive euohre. Gambling, he holds, is
ae crime within Itself. If any state
desires to make K a crime they must
pass a law covering the case. And slot
machines are not mentioned In the Mis

That ooasu rapt ion can be cured is the
hops once more held out by Prof. Rob
ert Koch, a German scientist whose
uame was on every tongue seven years
ago. Koch’s “tuberculin,” which was
then tested, with unfavorable results,
was a preparation of the bacilli of tu
berculosis. The present treatment also
consists of hypodermic Injections of
Ithsse bacilli, but with this difference,
that the bacilli have been broken sip by
meohanloal means in order to facilitate
their absorption. Doctor Koch does
not promise that the new tuberculin
would be useful when the malady had
reached an advanced stage. He does
affirm that “a large number of suitable
patients” have been cured by it. It is
noticeable that European scientists
treat this claim with great reaper.—a
certain Indication that, In their view,
Doctor Koch’s twenty years’ study of
tuberculosis may at any time be
crowned with full success.
As the charter of the Bank of France
expires at the end of the year the bill
for Its renewal is expected to come
before the French chamber almost any
day, and the Paris correspondent of the
Economist points out the remarkable
changes that have taken place in the
bill since it was first introduced in
lfltS. “Originally the charter was to
he rindwed for twenty-three years;
now It can be terminated by the gov
ernment at the end of fifteen years.
The former bill required the bank to
per to the state an annual contribu
tion of 2.500,000 francs from the com
mencement of 1898; the new bill fixes
the contribution at one-eighth of the
rats of discount on the average pro
ductive note circulation, or the amount
of discounts and loans on securities.
In addition to the stipulation that the
existing advances of 140.000,000 francs
to the treasury shall cease to bear in
terest, the bank Is to advance a fur
ther 40,000.000 francs, also without in
terest, and It cannot demand repay
ment before the expiration of its
charter. The note circulation, which
was originally to be raised to <160,000,-
000. Is now to be increased to the enor
mous amount of £800,006,000. and there
sure other less important changes which
it Is unnecessary to specify.”

STONED BY WOMEN.
■tost Attempt te Start up • Coal Mias
Falla '
Pittsburg, tfs., Aug. 27. -The first At
tempt to start any oTtbe coal mines in
this district was made at the Champion
mines of Robbins A Co., near McDon
ald; on the Pan Handle road this morn
ing.- Two carloads of foreigners, gath
ered up from around Pittsburg, were
sent to the Champion mines about day
light and put to work loading slack in-*
to cars. The miners heard of the arriv
al of the new men and 500 women
marched to the mine. The new men
were attacked with stones and clubs
and driven from the cars. The women
followed them up; the foreigners with
out resisting fled to Noblestown. The
women then returned to McDonald sod
dumped the slack that had been loaded
from the cars. They were met by 1.000
strikers and headed by a band marched
a short distance from the mine, where
they are now encamped, watching for
the return of non-union miners. The
company says they are determined to
load the slack and a conflict is expect
ed if the new men are brought back to
the mine.
The miners’ leaders are encouraged
to-day over the prospects of an early
settlement of the strike. Efforts are
now being directed to the Pennsylvania
railway and the central field of Penn
sylvania. District President Dolan ad
dressed a meeting at Claridge. West
moreland county, last night, and the re
sult was that the men decided to quit
work. This means the losing of two
mines of the Westmoreland Gas Coal
Company, the largest comi>any on the
Pennsylvania railway.
President Dolan says the wqjk will
be systematically pursued and expects
soon to have all the miners idle. He
says six mines have been closed In the
•central district, and that work will be
suspended in the region within a short
time. Sheriff Lowry went to Bunola
this morning, accompanied by several
deputies and ordered the strikers off
the public roads. An injunction was
served on Captain Walker, who was in
charge, and also several of the men.
The operators are preparing to start
their mines, but it is not likely that any
move will be made until after the St.
Lonis convention ends. %
DEVOURED BY MOUNTAIN LIONS
Undoabtad Fata of a Two T«ar-Old Child
la tha Mountains, Knar Caspar.
Casper. Wyo.. Aug. 27.—A1l is excite
ment in Casper over the loss of a two
year-old child, that was carried away
by a mountain lion on Casper moun
tain yesterday morning A fruitless
search was made by herders of flocks
and miners all day yesterday, and forty
men searched all last night in vain to
find the baby. The numlier of those in
search is constantly swelling, and the
search Is kept up without a rest or
sleep.
The little one Is an orphan, whose
mother died last year, ami whose fath
er had put It into the care and keep
ing of the family of a inau named
Henderson, who is herding sheep ten
miles from Casper, at the head of “C.
Y.” canon.
At daylight yesterday morning Mr.
Henderson arose and followed his
flock, leaving his wife aml the orphan
charge sleeping in camp. When lie re
turned at 8 o’clock for breakfast the
woman was still fast asleep, and the
baby was gone. It had awoke and tod
dled off In its night dress. A search
waa at once made for the little one.
and its bare feet tracks were fount!
leading to a spring, nearly a mile
away. Near the spring ami near the
babe’s tracks was found also a fresh
track of a huge mountain lion, and the
fate of the little one was then known.
No other trace of the bain* has l>ecu
found.
There is a deu of four lious on Cas
per mountain, anti their tracks have
been seen repeatedly by an old miner,
named J. B. Smith, who lias eopper
properties in the neighborhood. There
are two old ones and two young lions
in the bunch, as the miner has learntnl
from counting tracks heretofore. No
hopes are entertained of ever finding
the babe alive, but those in search are
eager to find the den ami there find the
bones and little dress of the unfortu
nate babe.
THE CRUSH AT SKAGUAY.
Not One la a Hundred Will art Through.
Port Townsend. Wash.. Aug. 27.—An
drew Wasson, banker and ex-eolleotor
' of customs, who left with a party of
seven for the Klondyke, has written to
his wife from Skaguay as follows:
“There are about 3.000 men and 1.500
horses, making up the most forlorn lot
I ever saw. About half of them hare
given up and the other half either
curse or cry. Taking it altogether. I
never saw such conditions of affairs.
At Dyes there are nearly as many as
here, and I am told they are in* the
same condition.
“God only knows what will become
of those headed this way. for none but
those who have horses will get through.
I do not believe that one in n hundred
will get through. Many have started
out. but Just as many have returned,
footsore and disheartened. Outfits
can be bought here for a song. The
authorities should stop the tide of im
migration that is coming this way. It
is suicidal to a prospector to come at
this time for the blockade here will be
followed by one on the trail. I am firm
ly convinced that even after the trail
is opened to traffic, that be crush of
horses will be even greater on the
mountain than the crush of men here.
It is discouraging to see the pitiful con
dition of thousands here. One here
without horses is as helpless as a child.
I never saw so many men weaken.

Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 24.—"Cincinnati's
triumph in securing the national en
campment for 1898 and Pennsylvania's
victory in winning the commander-in
chief of the Grand Army were the fea
tures of the encampment. Both battlea
were bard fought. The struggle was
precipitated immediately after the ex
ecutive session was called to order. The
selection of the next place of meeting
was first taken up. and the rival cities
were given a hearing.
The city committee of Cincinnati was
admitted and M. E. Ingalls, president of
the Big Four railroad, presented the
claims and attractions of the city in
a happy speech.
Delegate Woodruff of California pre
sented the claims of San Francisco.
On the first ballot Cincinnati received
528 votes and San Francisco 214. The
vote had not been announced when Mr.
Woodruff withdrew San Francisco and
asked that the selection of Cincinnati
be made unanimous. This was agreed to
by acclamation.
Folk)wing the selection of Cincinnati
Archbishop Ireland was called to the
stand and made a glowing speech. He
was followed by General Lew Wallace,
who made a short address.
The report of the committee on in
struction followed tills address. It criti
cised the books of history read in the
schools of the South as inaccurate and
suggested some changes.
Nominations for commander-in-chief
were then declared in order and Isaac
F. Mack of Sandusky. Ohio; J. P. S. Go
bin of Lebanon. Pa.; George H. Innes
of Boston, and John G. Linohan of New
Hampshire were placed in nomination.
Inter Mr. Innes withdrew. The first
ballot resulted: Mack. 253; Linohan.
181; Oobin. 296—no choice. *
The vote on the second ballot was
never aiuioun<‘<*<] officially, but as cast
it stood: Gohiu. 358; Mack. 249; Line
han. 123. Before the result could be an
nounced the tellers of the 10 Missouri
votes that had been cast for Mack
were withdrawn and ordered changed
to Gobin. who had received the other
12 of the 22 votes lielongiug to the
state.
This gave Gohin 368 votes, and
enough to elect. Then Illinois and oth
er states began to order their votes
changed, but while this was in prog
ress R. B. Brown of Ohio, who nominat
ed Mr. Mack, asked unanimous consent
that the adjutant general l*e instructed
to cast the vote of the oneampment for
Mr. Gobin. making his election unani
mous.
General (’larkson in his annual report
made the following recommendations:
"Owing to the steady decrease in the
membership and the very small burden
Imposed by the national per capita of
2% cents. I believe that the best inter

the latch strings have been loosened

of the great department of the govern
ment seems to have l>een oiled with the
oil of human kindness and honest obli

smoothly and with mnch less friction
than before. I believe it will not be
long until every case properly made up
will be reached and receive attention.

After thanking the vice commander
and his official and personal staff., who
had splendidly sustained him In his
work, and the comrades who had been
so uniformly kind and indulgent and
courteous, he concluded thus:
“Let us keep the old flag to the fore.

the committee’s headquarters for the
ensuing year.
The platform starts out with a dec

adjustment of the tariff and Internal
revenues as will produce sufflclent
money for the governments expendl
tUon the financial question the plat

contracts for payment in coin of either
metal, and the substitution of metal
lic tokens for the present minor coins,
and declares that all currency should
be In the form of treasury notes of un
limited legal tender quality, and that
everv other form of currency notes
should be withdrawn from circulation.
The resolutions continue as follows:
“All existing obligations of the gov
ernment should be paid on maturity
in strict conformity with the expressed
conditions. For this purpose the gold
and silver coins withdrawn from circu
lation should be held in the treasury
for the redemption of such bonds as
are specifically payable in coin.
“We believe that the mints of the
United States should l»e open at all
times to all citizens free of charge for
the assaying, refining, casting into
bars and stamping weight and fineness
of all gold and silver produced from
mines within our territory.**
Among other things, the platform
favors the submission of the question

Los Angeles. Oal.. Aug. 26.—The offi
cial call for the oixth National Irriga
tion Congress has been issued and con
tains the following:
The sixth session of the National Irri
gation Congress will be held in Lincoln.
Nebraska. September 28. 29 and 30. The
basis of representation will be as fol
lows :
First—All members of the national
executive committee.

The questions for discussion in the
National Irrigation Congress are of vi
tal interest to the people of arid and
semi-arid America, but to every section
of our common country. Each succeed
ing session has been marked by an in
creasing interest, intelligence of discus
sion and broadening of plans looking
to the reclamation of the arid West
and to the establishment of indepen
dent means of livelihood for the mil
lions who are yet homeless in a land
of unparalleled resources, with a pos
sible destiny beyond the most extrava
gant dreams of the optimist. Problems
of both national and state legislation
are to be considered.
WHEAT ABOVE A DOLLAR.
Chicago Speculator# Have a Bust Day.
Chicago. Aug. 28.—T0-day. for the
first time since the present bull cam
paign in wheat was started, the price
of September wheat sold above the dol
lar mark in Chicago. Ten minutes af
ter the opening $1.03% was offered, an
advance over yesterday's closing price
of 6fcc.
Even at that tempting figure the bull
clique refused to let go of their hold
ings. Enough wheat came on the mar
ket to break the price to 98%c by the
time the closing bell sounded, but the
brokers who are engineering the deal
stoutly denied that it came from them.
There was. perhaps, a shade of mal
icionsness in the way they forced
shorts up. It was currently reported
on Monday, when prices broke so
sharply that the pool was forced to
put up $400,000 In margins. They cer
tainly had their revenge to-day. The
rise was plainly due to the clique,
which is now swelled by rumor to In
clude Joseph Leiter, George R. French
Allen Grier & Co., and James Kenne.’
of Wall Street. The only leader—
Geoige R. French—who appeared dis
tinctly above the surface, makes no se
cret that he lias a line of 5,000 000
bushels of September wheat. There
is not more than 1,000,000 bushels of
contract wheat in Chicago, with hard
ly anything coming, and an immense
short line of cash wheat sold for ex
port. This is the situation as it now
plays into the hands of the bull com
bine.

Three Ends of a Rops.
An Irishman who was out of work went
on board a vessel that was in harbor and
asked the captain if he could find him work
on the ship.
“eWII,” said the captain, at the same time
handing the Irishman a piece of rope, “if
you can find three ends to that rope you
shall have some work.”
The Irishman got hold of one end of the
rope and showing it to the captain said:
“That’s one eua. votir honor. Then lie
took hold of the other end and showing It to
the captain as before said: “And that s two
ends, your honor.” Then taking hold of
both ends of the rope, lie threw It over
board, sayiug: “And. faith, there's au end

Bird Artists.
That there Is a consciousness of beauty
on the part of birds is plainly shown by the
manner in which many of them decorate
their nests and surroundings, and. in some
Instances, themselves, l'erhaps it may,not
be too much to claim that all birds are
moved by an artistic sentiment, and that,
while most of them are artistic in effect,
many are artiatic in both intention and ef
fect. The appreciation of what is beautiful
is a distinctly marked characteristic of
most members of the feathered family, and
it is only natural that the desire and ability
to create l>eauty are found in various de
grees of development among them. It Is
only a step from desire of beauty to an ef
fort to produce it; but the effort and ac
complishment occasionally bring about
strange results. In birds as well as fu man.—

KIDNEY TROUBLES
Oared by Lydia B. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound.
Also Backache.
I cannot speak too highly of Mrs.
Pinkham's Medicine, for it has done ao J
much for me. I have been a great suf
ferer from Kidney trouble, pains in
muscles, joints, back and shoulders;
feet would swell. I also had womb .
troubles and leucorrhoea. After using -
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and Blood Purifier and Liver
Pills, I felt like a new womap. My
kidneys are now in perfect condition, -
and ail my other troubles are cured —
Mrs. Maggie Potts, 324 Kauffman St., -
Philadelphia, Pa.
Backache.
My system was entirely run down,
and I suffered with terrible backache
in the small of my back and could
hardly stand upright. I was more
tired in the morning than on retiring
at night. I had no appetite. Since
taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, I have gained fifteen pounds,
and I look better than I ever looked
before. I shall recommend it to all
my friends, as it certainly is a wonder
ful medicine.— Mrs. E. F. Morton, 1043
Hopkins St., Cincinnati, Ohio.
Kidney Trouble.
Before taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound, I had suffered
many years with kidney trouble. The
pains in my back and shoulders were
terrible. My menstruation became ir
regular, and I was troubled with leu
corrhoea. I was growing very weak. I
had been to many physicians but re
ceived no benefit. I began the use of
Mrs. Pinkham's medicine, and the first
bottle relieved the pain in my back
and regulated the menses. It is the
best kind of medicine that I have ever
taken, for it relieved the pain so quickly
and cured the disease. —Mrs. Lillian
