ferred to a subcommittee Weaver's
bill, providing for the issue of $751;
100000 fractional currency to meet

incorporating the Maritime Canal
Company of Nicaragua, and the same

to serve notice on as many of the
Company's officers as possible and
argument will be heard on Thursday.

For Smallpox or Scarlet Fever

One who was connected with the
medical and surgical departments
during the late war says: Between
the battles OF Stone River and Mis-
sionary Ridge a smallpox epidemic
scared more than it killed. A large
hospital was established at Bridge
port, Ala, and the average number OF
inmates was represented by more
than three figures. But the deaths
were very few and the treatment
quite simple. We only gave the pa
tients plenty of ventilation by raising
the sides of the hospital tents, kept
their bowels freely open, and gave
them good rations OF English ale, a
commodity that was generously sup
piled by the Christian Commission OF
the MOI th and Uncle Sans Commits
sary Department.
II have kere also in my pocketbook
a distinguished physicians recipe for
the smallpox, and l know it is good,
but l will give it to you with his own
comments.
"This recipe has been used to my
knowledge in hundreds OF cases, and
know it will prevent or cure smallpox,
though the pittings are filling. When
Jenher discovered the cowpox in
England, the world OF science hurled
an avalanche of fame upon his head
but when the most scientific school
of medicine in the world-that
of Paris-published this recipe as
panacea for smallpox, it passed I'M
needed. 1t is unfailing as fate, and
conquers in every instance. 1t is
harmless when taken by a well per.
son. 1t will also cure scarlet fever
Here is the receipt as l have used il
and cured my children of scarlet
fever; here it is as / have used it to
cure smallpox:
''Sulphate of zinc, one grain fox
glove (digitalis), one grain; half {
teaspoonful of sugar; mix with two
teaspoonfuls of water. When thor
oughly mixed add four ounces of wa
ter. Take a spoonful every hour
Either disease will disappear in twelve
hours. For a child, smaller doses
according to age. If counties woult

AN EASIER SURVEY.

Reason why the Utah Road has
Slighted Albuquerque.
ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ, January Co.
Considerable dissatisfaction exists
here because of the fact of the con-
struction OF the Rio Grande and Utah
r al from Algodonez, Mexican ham,
lsttwelve miles distant instead of from
here. B. L. Jones, who has returned
from the surveyors camp, says that
this is accounted for from the reason
that the grade from that place is
easier than from here. He says that
the surveyors are now working in the
snow, though making good progress.
The articles of incorporation have
been filed with the territorial secre-
tary, and the officers and board of di-
rectors elected. Work will be COM
menced inside of three months. The
road will run through the San Juan
valley to Durango, Colorado.

THE ELsINORE ROAD.
Information Regarding its Pr0s-
poets and Policy.

SAN Francisco, January 26.-Re-
presentatives of the San Diego and
Elsinore Railway arrived in this city
to-day. and stated to the Associated
Press that their visit was for the pur-
pose OF procuring steel and ties for
their line. They expressed view
that their road would be in operation
between Pomona and Elsinore within
ninety days. They denied the state
ment that the new road was owned or
controlled by the Southern Pacific,
but stated that they expected to make
favorable traffic agreement with the
Southern Pacific for an exchange of
business. Concerning the route from
Elsinore nothing definite could be
ascertained beyond the statement that
the Ell Cajon Valley would be tapped
by the road and that Warmers ranch
was on the line as at present mapped
out. The Elsinore people state that
they have succeeded in securing
enough steel and ties to complete the
road as far as Elsinore, and have con-
tracted for nearly enough to complete
the remainder of the line.
