One Pound
Better Than Two.
1t seems strange, but it is none
the less true, that one pound of
Blooker's Dutch Cocoa

Is better than two of any other
brand. The reason is not far to
search. BLooKER'S DUTCH Cocoa
is absolutely unadulterated. Other
cocoas so-called are mixed with
starch, arrow root, vanilla or sugar.
One pound of Blooker's Dutch Co.
Goa will make $50 cups. At one
dollar a pound it is, therefore, at
once the most costly and econom-
ical cocoa on the market. All
leading grocers and druggists sell it.

Is DOCTORS FAILED
To cure Mrs. Thomas Hatton, and she suffered
on for l3years. The aches and pains which
she experienced in almost every part of her
body was simply terrible. Those sharp. cutting
pains across the small of her back and lower
part of her body was almost unbearable. In
fact she suffered with all those diseases and
conditions peculiar to women. For three
months her mind was unbalanced, and for
months she was confined to her bed. She be-
came very weak and emaciated. so that she
only weighed 9S pounds. No one expected her
to live, much less get entirely cured. After
receiving three months treatment with the
physicians of the Catarrh and Dyspepsia Insti-
tute, S2S Penn avenue, who make specially Of
her disease, she says:
II never want any one to suffer as have for
the past l3 years. The condition of my case
was much worse than has been described, and
l am only too glad to testify to my complete
cure by the doctors Of the Catarrh and Dys-
MRS THOMAS HATToN, Putnam. Pa"
Please remember that the physicians of the
Catarrh and Dyspepsia Institute never display
their patients portraits in the papers. Neither
do they publish any testimonial, except with
the full consent or wish of the patient.
Furthermore their testimonials are not from
some far oil place where no such parties reside,
but from your own county and your own
city, with the full name and address
given, thus proving their genuineness. The
Catrrrh ana dyspepsia Institute is thoroughly
established in Pittsburg, and thousands Of
patients gladly testify to cures they have re-
ceived. The treatment used does not consist
of the so-called magnetic, or superhuman
agencies, but medicines made from roots
and herbs. and compounded to suit
the requirements of each individual
case, thus removing not only the disease,
but tha cause of the disease as well.
Ninety-f1ve out of every hundred of the patti
ents treated at this Institute are those suffer-
ing from Catarrh, which is the certain fore
runner OF consumption. The testimonials pub

The COcoanut Crab.

From the Scientific American.
On the Agala islands, in the Indian ocean,
there is very strange crab. He is known to
science the birgus lutro, thief crab, and
his depredations are carried ON in the cocoanut
groves, which abound on these islands. This
crab grows to be % inches long, measuring
from the tip of the tail to the end of the
long claw, and resembles in general appearance
the hermit crab. The abdomen is heshy and
not covered with shell, and i'll order to pro-
tect this it is the habit of the thief crab to take
forcible possession of shell of the Trochial
family in which it lives. 1t is nocturnal in its
operations and has the faculty of selecting the
trees having the finest cocoanuts upon them
Climbing up the trunks, frequently for % feet,
it reaches the limbs and sewers the stems which
attach the nuts to the branches. These are
frequently as thick as your three fingers and
would require strong knife. Having brought
ground. digs hole and rolls the cocOanut into
ii. He then commences to tear off the husks,
fiber by fiber. until the nut is completely ex-
posed, and then breaking in what is known as
the eye he eats the meat completely out. The
fibers stripped off the cocoanut by this crab
viii frequently fill bushel basket, and they
are gathered for making mattresses, and are
also twisted into ropes. Cocoanut groves are
cultivated by those who make a business of
extracting the oil from the nuts, to be used for
Illuminating purposes. and the depredatiOns of
this crab are of a very serious character, in
many cases the efforts of the natives to ex-
terminate them proving fruitless

A ROMANTIC MARRIAGE.
A Casino Chorus Girl Elopes with Her
Fencing Master.

New YORK, June 13.-0ne of the most ro-
mantle of stage marriages of late is that of
Miss Edgermuth Starritt, one of the prettiest
and best singers of Mr. Aronson's 'B-igands"
chorus. She has left the company and married
her fencing master, Signor Paulo BelIochio
The last time she was seen at the Casino was
on Monday. On Tuesday her aunt appeared
and said she had eloped with the swordsman
He Is thirty-fve and she but nineteen. Mrs.
Bellochio halls from the bluest blood that con-
stitutes the aristocracy of Brooklyn Heights
Her connection with the stage is of recent
date. Her surviving parent is an indulgent
father, and seemingly his only qualification in
life is to bow to the wishes of his only child
This only child became enamored of the stage
and pleaded with her father to at least give
her a chance of making her name as a
singer. After much persuasion he yielded and
did SO gracefully, although with many mis-
givings, her first appearance being made in
January last as one of the choristers in the
Woman of the Guard" On account of her
attention to business, as well as her beauty and
singing qualifications, she was soon sent out by
Aronson, of the Casino, to join his road COM
pany number two, i'll which she was Captain
Delaney in .'Erminie," and Dame CdrTuthe1.s
in The Yeoman of the Guard" Previous to
this the young lady was romantic enough to
form an acquaintance with Signor Bellochio
who in his own land is a nobleman. but who
gives fencing lessons for a living in this coun-
try. 1t is learned that Signor Bellochio is not
rich, but as the chorus girl he has married will
come into fortune on the death of her father

RUSSOPHOBIA in ENGLAND.
An Attack of that Disease Caused by the
Cars Treatment of the Shah.

LONDON, June l3.-0ne of the intermittent
attacks of RussophObia, characteristic of British
politicians, is now at its height. The car, to
use the Standards expression. has again shown
his hand. His atrocious conduct toward the
poor shah who came to Russia by invitation,
and was bullied in manner that was anything
but an suspicious prelude to a pleasure jaunt.
has proved that the tyranical disposition and
native treachery of the Russian monarch are
likely to be exhibited at any time in spite of all
professions of peaceful inclinations. The Lon
don journals assert in more emphatic tones
than ever that the car must not be permitted
to have a slice of Persia, big or little. and the
shah is to be made much of in order to impress
him with the might Of England's forces.
ESPECIALLY HER NAVAL SUPERIORITY.
English officers who have taken the trouble to
master the oriental languages, especially the
Persian, have now exceptional chances for pro-
motion, and those who have done sufficient
violence TO Unborn preiudices to learn Rus
sian are particularly in demand. 1t is wise to
be prepared beforehand. and this sudden in
quiry for subalterns with these unusual at
tainments is significant. But while some stress
Is laid upon the circumstance that rather less
than two score British officers have lately quail
ified in the Russian language. probably not less
than i've Thousand of the ears officers speak
and write English huently, besides knowing
the dialects OF various Asiatic tribes and ma
tiOns.
Expressions Of dissatisfaction in India are, as
general thing. CONTEMPORARY referred to by
the English authorities there as bazaar talk.
aud the protest OF educated Hindoos to the
yiceroy against the sale of liquor to the natives
will probably meet with little attention. The
increase of drunkenness has alarmed the
moral and religious high castles, who are any
thing but edited at the example set the poor
and ignorant by their English masters. One
reply called forth by the published protest
from an official is noticeable as an expression
of opinion from one of the superior race.
Drunkenness, he says. is only prevalent among
the most powerful and progressive races, and
and If the HlndoOs are taking to strong drink

A CHINESE CITY BURNED.
Three-fOurths Of the People of Luchow
Said to Have Been Destroyed

San Francisco. June 13.-The steamer City
of Peking arrived yesterday from Hong Kong,
via Yokohama. The Shanghai Courier of May
10 contains news which the latter received from
a correspondent at Chung King to the effect
that LUCKNOW, a city of some importance in up
per Pangtsze, was reported as being nearly
destroyed by fire about month previous
Seven out of the eight gates of the city are said
to have been destroyed, and the loss of life in
burned and trampled to death is estimated at
10000.
Commenting on this the Shanghai Courier
says: In case this startling news is true it is
a remarkable fact that it has not reached
Shanghai before now, as it is just month since
the fire was reported to have occurred. Still
this is not conclusive proof that great disas-
ter has not happened, as a month is not too
long time for letter to reach Chung King.
We met gentleman in Shanghai to-day who
was in Ichang less than month ago, and he
informed US that mandarin was fellow pas
senger with him as far Hankow, and he told
him about the fire, mentioning that three
fourths of the people of Luchow had been de-
stroyed"

The "Irrepressible MOther-in- Law"

Mrs. Florence Raines, in the Police Court
to-day, showed Judge Miller a penkuife and
charged that her husband threatened to cut
her throat with it. The woman left her hus-
band, Edward Raines, in Northumberland
county, Va, and came to this city. where he
soon followed her. He denied the charge
Judge Miller, in disposing of the case, said
that, as usual, the irrepressible mother-in-law
was an important figure in the case. In order
that the woman may be fully protected the
judge said he would require Raines to give
bonds in the sum of $500. The judge also told
him that when he made arrangements to leave
the city and return home he would be re-
leased
Your honor" said Policeman Slack, III go
on his bond"
"How long have you known him?" inquired
the court of the officer.
Never before | saw him in court this morn
ing" replied Officer Slack; ''but | don't think
he would injure a hair in the wOman's head. 4"
The judge warned the man about his future
conduct and also told the wife that she must
not lay any scheme to entrap her husband and
provoke him to commit violation of the law.
The court will protect her, but if she does not
do right she need not ask any further protec-
ton.

THE INDIANA MINERS.
Coal Operators Protest Against any Sym

INDIANAPOLIS. ND, June IA committee
81 coal operators from Clay county visited
Gov. Hovey yesterday to protest against any
act on the part of the executive indicative of
sympathy with the strikers. They declare that
the scale offered the miners is the highest pos
sible for them to pay, and that If they met the
miners demands the mines would be operated
at loss.
1t had been intimated that the governor
might issue proclamation showing sympathy
for the strikers. Such action, the operators
declare, would encourage the strikers not to
return to work, and thus increase the present
suffering. The governor would not indicate
what course he will pursue. A committee of
the miners will call on the governor to-day to
lay their grievances before him.
