the fonr largest tribes in the territory.
The prod ductions are such as farmers of
the west usually cultivate. They are
enlnrging their farms, improving their
houses, and giving particular attention
to orchards. They are advancing in
wealth by tho increase of stock, both in
quality and numbers. c,,l4S F,,r.s

AMERICAN WOMEN 1t is a melancholy
fact, that American women have degen-
Grated in point of health and physique,
until they have become literally a race of
invalids. How sad it is 10 look around
us and compare the frail and efleminate
looking lady of to day with the hale,
hearty and buxom ladies of days gone by.
To all such the late discovery Of DR..
WALKER, of California, which is known
AS VINEGAR BITTERs, is a priceless boon
indeed. For this class of diseases it is
certain and safe, and any lady, old or
young, can take it with entire confidence
IN the result and thus avoid what to
thousands is stumbling block never
overcome, VIA consultation with a
family physician. IT'S true there may be
cases of years standing, that will necessi.
tate more powerful treatment, but in nine
cases out of ten this remedy will reach
the disease, and after little time effect
cure. The namber of ladies cured by it
are numbered by thousands, and are
scattered through every State in the
Union. 26

Russian Soldiers.

You would be delighted TO see the drill
of these Russian soldiers. This morning
while was reading your letter, there was
paradng at the Boulevard directly in front
of this legation, regiment Of cavalry,
about 800 strong, every horse black, not a
white hair on all the number, of the same
height, size, and style, standing like stat
ues, while the riders, all large men and
equal in drill, wore hemlets and breast
plates of brass polished to the highest
perfection, with drawn sabers of brightest
steel, long, crooked and intended for bus
mess. The exactitHde of these regiments
is wonderful. Most of the horses are
black, but there are regiments Of grays
ard bays, but no mixture. Each horse
must have flowing name and tail The
infantry and artillery are equally closely
selected, no diversity of height in a com
pany, and they move like machinery.
Great preparations are being made for the
festivities of the coming nuptials of the
Duke of Edinburgh with the Russian
princess, and daily drills are taking place
on the "Champ de Mars should guess
there were out TO-DAY 1900 or 5000 caval-
ry, rs many of artillery, and 10000 or
$4,000 infantry It's q splendid sight,
such as is seen nowhere else. Marching
is very rapid, and mostly to trumpets, on
ly sometimes accompanied by. kettle

military bands. The Emperor and all of
the imperial family are splendid soldiers,
and always appear in the uniform of their
respective regiments, which makes the
military idea the prominent one Of the
Empire. | want to see no such army in

Treating the Wrong Disease.

Many times Women call upon their family
physicians, one with dyspepsia, another with
palptaton, another with trouble of the
breast, another with pain here and there, aud
in this way they all present alike to them
selves and their easy-goug and indifferent
doctors, separate and distinct diseases, for
which he pTcscribes his pills and potions, as
sumug them to he such, when, in reality,
hey are all symptoms caused by some uterine
disorder; and while they are thus only able
perhaps 10 paiate for time, they are igno-
rant Of the cause, and encourage their prac-
nee until large bills are made, when the suf-
iering patients are no better in the end but
probably worse for the delay, treatment, and
other complications made and which proper
medicine directed to the cause would have en-
urcly removed, thereby instituting health and
comfort instead Of prolonged misery.

THE CIGARMAKERS' STRIKE.

The Havana Strikers-The Increase In
Prtccs-Dcar Reinas and Precious Re-
galtas-Thc New York strike Ended.
The dlfhculties between their employers and
the journeymen cigarmakers are drawing to a
close, at least for the present. and nearly all the
strikers are resuming work. The trouble was
brought about principally by the avarice OF one
manufacturer, who pulled down the wages of his
men from 81 to So on every 900 cigars couple Of
months ago. but kept up his own prices. Others
followed this pernicious example, and all cried
out "Hard times" Business revived last month,
and constant increase OF orders enabled the
bosses to work all their hands. The wOrkmen
camored for old prices, and the manufacturer who
first broke them down said he would give in If
others would do the same. An attempt was made
to strike, but the wOrkmen whose prices had not
been cut down refused to go into it, and the con-
sequent agitation had the effect OF achieving q
return to former rates.
Union is being greatly curtaled by the arrival Of
Bohemian females who are thoroughly trained TO
the business aud often more expert than the men,
earning from $15 to S25 week.
The strike OF the Havana cigarmaKers is princi-
paly due to the great fluctuations IN the currency
OF the Spanish Bank OF Havana, which for two or
three years back has taken the place OF gold in
the markets OF Cuba. The workmen in Havana
desire to have prices fixed on gold basis.
The latest advces from Havana give no satisfac-
tory solution to the problem, and Mr.. Thomas, an
extensive importer OF Beaver street, thinks that
imported cigars are likely to experience rise on
present prices The sharp competition between
dealers has thus far prevented much oil an advance
on the rates OF old stocks. Several brands tnat
were put on a gold basis some months ago will
not be affected by existing difficulties between
cuban manufacturers ana American consumers.
The Muras, Reina Victoria brand, which in the
middle OF December could be had for $l26 per
1000, are now rated at $1S9, United states cur
rency.
manufacturers and dealers make this fact an eX-
cuse Tor the higher prices now asked by them.
