WHISKY SMUGGLING IN CANADA.
Cardinal Taschereau's Mandate Likely to
Have a Good Effect.

Cardinal Taschereau's Mandate Likely to
Have a Good Effect.
OTTAWA, November 2.-Members of the
Dominion Government express the belief
that the mandate recently issued by Cardi-
nal Taschereau will have good effect in
suppressing whisky smuggling in the Prov
ince of Quebec. 1t is estimated that the
customs have been defrauded to the extent
of at least S500,0O0 during the past
few wears through this business. Schooners
bring up cargoes of illicit spirits from St.
Pierre and Miquelon, anchor in the gulf or
Lower St Lawrence, and there distribute
the stuff to small craft, often to small sail
boats that take on board three or four bar
rels at time and land it. Much OF this
illicit traffic is done openly, the settlers
along the banks OF the river being, as gen.
eral rule, in league with the Smugglers,
from whom they purchase the liquor at an
average price o. 81 40 per gallon for high
wines 800 above proof and capable of being
reduced until three gallons is made from
one.
The evil effects resulting from the facility
with which the people o. the lower st. Law
renee acquire the liquor are but too appar-
ent. Very sad stories are told OF the desti-
tuition produced by an excessive indulgence
in these liquors. A well-informed gentle
man tells a story of five young men who
came to the shore from an inland settlement,
each with a team of two oxen and heavy
load of farm produce. After disposing of
their loads they returned without either
money, provisions, or merchandise, carrying
nothing but jars or casks Of liquor back to
their homes

Much Speculation as to the Probable Reap
pearance of the Grip-Wnat Certain Symp-
fonns Mean

Much Speculation as to the Probable Reap
pearance of the Grip-Wnat Certain Symp-
toms Mean.
There can be little doubt that the grip"
which played such sad havoc last year has not
only left its effects upon a great many but
seems to be returning in various localities. All
physicians report that there is an alarming
prevalence of heavy colds. accompanied by all
grip symptoms. Many people take cold easier
than before: others are troubled with weak
eyes, headaches, etc. These things not only
come to those who were laid low by the grip
last year, but are also visiting many who es-
capped. Pains, neuralgia, lassitude, all the
symptoms are present.
Every leading physician who treated the grip
st season prescribed stimulants. The weak
ening, depressed state of the body demanded
this, and there are numerous cases on record
where pure whiskey saved the lives of men and
women who were fast drifting toward the
grave. AS in all other things, however the
purity OF an article determines its value and to
say that ordinary whskey will assist Is absurd.
1t is only pure whiskey, of a medicinal quality,
respect that Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey has
shown itself to be immeasurably superior to
any other known stimulant The attention of
the best physicians has been drawn to this
truth, and the fact that they are prescribing
this whiskey constantly is the highest praise
they could bestow. Prof. Joseph Parrish says:
1--WE know that whskey will steady the heart,
to use it," Be very careful however, that you
secure only the genuine, and such as has, by
years of popularity, been proven purest and
best In other words, use only DufyS.

A GHOsTLY SENTRY,
Who in Life Had Been Shot for Sleeping,
but in Death Returned,


BIRMINGHAM, ALA, November g.
Otto Schiller, an aged German shoemaker
in this city, was a soldier in the Franco
Prussian War. Schiller is firm believer
in ghosts, and is so AFRAID of meeting them
at night he rarely leaves his room after
dark. When pressed TO tell why he was
afraid Of ghosts, Schiller one day consented
to relate the story.
Near the close of the Franco Prussian
War, and while two opposing armies were
facing each other, battle expected the fol-
lowing day, a Prussian sentry was found
asleep on his post one night. Next day
there was no battle, but a hasty court
martial tried the sentry and condemned him
to be shot at sunrise the following morning.
Schiller was one of the squad detailed for
the execution. The hapless sentry fell dead
at the first volley from the firing party.
The night following the execution Schil.
Ter was on picket duty and found himself
on the post where the man he helped to kill
had been found asleep. At first he thought
nothing of the strange coincidence, but to-
ward midnight feeling OF dread came over
him and would not be shaken off. Just at
l. o'clock Schiller saws he saw a soldier
with musket on his shoulder walking
straight toward him on the picket line. He
thought it was the officer of the guard, but
as the figure came nearer he saw the face of
the man shot that morning.
Schiller saws the blood in his veins seemed
to turn TO ice; he was unable to move hand
or foot, and could not utter a sound. The
ghost of the dead sentry passed within two
feet of him, walked on to the end of the
beat. turned with military precision and
retraced his steps. Back and forth along
the beat the ghostly sentry continued to
walk until near the break of day, when it
seemed to vanish in the air. The eyes of
the ghost were closed as if in sleep, but its
musket was at shoulder arms and it
walked the beat with regular military
tread. Next day the Prussian army ad-
and Schiller did not see the ghostly
sentry again. but he has ever since been
firm believer in spooks

RELICS OF CAVE DWELLERS.
A Discovery That is Agitating Some of the
Illinois Scientists.

Illinois Scientists.
GALENA, ILL, November 2.-What is
believed BY local scientists to have been the
dwelling place of some of the members of
the singular race which inhabited this sec.
tion in prehistoric times was discovered on
the 22d inst. by party of Galena sportsmen
on the east bank of the Mississippi river,
near the famous Pilot Knob, about four
miles from this city: The opening, which is
barely large enough to admit of the passage
OF man on his hands and knees, is II feet
above the foot of a rocky bluff, and is
reached by means of what seems TO be arti.
fetal steps, which were overgrown with
shrubbery.
1t was discovered in following a wolf
which the party had started up. and was
but partially explored owing to the late
ness of the hour, and yesterday the same
party paid a second visit to the spot and
explored it thoroughly for the distance of
about a mile. Among their discoveries
was an immense cavern some 30 feet lower
than the entrance above described, the sur
face of which was covered by lake OF solid
ice, which the party crossed.
Another room was discovered with saddle
shaped ceiling, covered with cube mineral,
which glistened like diamonds under the
reflection of the lights carried bv the explor-
ers. Nauited passages, some of whose boun-
daries could not be determined; irregular
shaped rooms covered from top to bottom
with stalagmites, stalactites and other beau
tiful geological formations, and immense
crevices that seemed to be bottomless were
among the other features of this wonderful
cave. The explorers brought back with
them large number of specimens, includ-
ing pieces of broken pottery, a huge stone
peStle copper implements of various kinds
per r!orted bears claws, several perforated
pearls of enormous size, though lusterless,
and number of human bones, all of which
were iound in a room which had every ap-
pearance of having been used as a dwelling
nlace

Rumors of the Disstons Moving Part of

ment at a cost of 100000.
Mr.. Harry w. Oliver, last night, had
heard nothing of any such intention on the
part of the Disstons. What may have given
currency to the rumor was the fact that the

occupied portion of the Disston plant at
Tacony, had transferred its works to that To-
cality. The company, Mr.. Oliver thought,
