Mr.. Egan expressed in distinct terms
feeling of great indignation which the
State Department at Washington feels

the assault upon the Baltimore's crew

The Best Treatment for La Grippe,

Remain quietly at home until all symp-
toms of the disease disappear, and then
when you 60 out have the body well clothed
and the feet well protected so that they
will remain dry and warm.
Take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as
directed for severe cold. If freely taken
as soon as the first symptoms of the disease
appear, it will greatly lessen the severity
of the attack, and its continued use will
prevent dangerous consequences, provided
of course, that reasonably good care be
taken Of the general system and to avoid
exposure.
For pain in the chest, which is very apt
to appear, saturate a flannel cloth with
ChamberIain's Pain Balm and bind it over
the seat of pain. 1t will relieve the pain
and perhaps prevent pneumonia.
This treatment was followed by many
thousands OF persons and families during
the winter Of 1889 and 1890, and was uni
formly successful. 1t greatly lessened the
severity of the attack and prevented
pneumonia or other dangerous conse-
quences.t TTsu

THE WHIsrLING GIRL OF TODAY.

She Has Disproved the Old Adage Coupling
Her With the Growing Hon.
Harper's N1agazine.l
The whistling girl does not commonly
come to a bad end. Quite as often as any
other girl she learns to whistle a cradle
song, low and sweet and charming, to the
young voter in the cradle. She is girl of
spirit, of independence of character, of dash
and flavor; and as to lips, why, you must
have some sort of presentable lips to whistle;
thin ones will not. The whistling girl does
not come to bad end at all (if marriage is
still considered good occupation), except a
cloud may be thrown upon her exuberant
young lie by this rascally proverb. Even
if she walks the lonely road of life, she has
this advantage, that she can whistle to keep
her courage mp. But in larger sense, one
that this practical age can understand, it is
not true that the whistling girl comes to
bad end. Whistling pays. 1t has brought
her money; it has blown her name about the
listening world. Scarcely has non-whist-
ling woman been more famous She has set
aside the adage. She has done so much to-
ward the emancipation of her sex from the
prejudice created by an ill-natured proyerb
which never had root in fact
But has the whistling woman come to
stay? Is it we'll for women to whistle? Are
the majority of women likely to be whist
lers? These are serious questions, not to be
taken up in light manner at the end of a
grave paper. Will woman ever learn to
throw stone? There it is. The future is
inscrutable. We only know that whereas
they did not whistle with approval, now
they do; the prejudice of generations grad
ually melts away. And woman s destiny is
not linked with that of the hen, nor to be
controlled by proverb-perhaps not by

Not far away from this old bridge are the
ruins of Fort Milroy, also in the club terri
tory. 1t was on this ground that Milroy,
Wilder and Reynolds held the forces of Lee
and Pegram at bay, and possibly saved
Western Pennsylvania, Eastern Ohio and
Northern West Virginia from rebel inva-
sion. The old Stanton and Parkersburg
pike, Vlrginia's great highway from east to
west, passes near by, and it was to prevent
the Confederates from getting complete pos

that Fort Milroy WAS established. The
embankments and breastworks remain

bearing every sign of age. Inside are

crossing the mountain in 1885, the evidences
of plenty of game, the pure atmosphere
and beauty of Shafer's Fork convinced him
that there was no better game preserve in
the country. The property had been re-
Gently purchased by Michigan parties, one
of whom Mr.. Edwards met with an en-
gineering corps. His plans were related
and the firm owning the property offered to
make a lease for so years, giving the asso-
citation the sole right to hunt, fish and trap
on the entire tract. George Shiras I'LL,
of Pittsburg, was interested in the plans
and the two men secured the grant. Others
were gradually taken until the limit of
membership, 200, is now reached.
A Limit to the Permits.
About half are Pittsburg men, including
a great many attorneys and none but people
of high standing. Professional shooters are
debarred. No one is allowed to kill more
than seven deer in one year or catch more
than 30 trout day. When the club house
was built it was 60 miles from any railroad
and all the furniture was hauled on wagons.
The club house is a log structure 60x40 feet,
two and one-half stories high, furnished with
cherry and pine. 1t is homelike in every
way and is open the year around for men,
bers and their families. Mountain spring
water that is 800 in midsummer is piped to
spring house near by and flows in con-
tinuous stream. 1t is clear as crystal and
as invigorating as the air around it. There
are number of members at the club house
nearly all the .ifne and in summer some of
them have their families with them.
5. Farther up in the preserve there are two
cabins where the hunters can go when they
do not want to return the long distance to
the club house. They are away from the
pike and entirely removed from civiliza-
tion. They are used principally by deer
hunters, near which it is claimed there is
the best hunting in America. w. NJ. Ken

near, but in that unsettled country to be
dehominated neighbors, are party of Eng
lish gentlemen, who have brought their for
eign ways and accent along with bankruptcy
to run sheep ranch in the Taggert Valley,
at place called Mingo Flats. The name
may recall "'Way Down on the Mingo
Farm" but when those gentlemen write to
their countrymen, it is safe to guess that
they speak Of their estates in America with
a higher sounding name. They are occa-
sional visitors to the club house, and with
their Oxford learning and recollections of
Britain and its ways form striking con-
trast to the rough manners of the native
West Virginian, with whom they have cast
their lot. Nevertheless they are said to be

Silent SentineIs in the Forests.
Other marks of war on the famous Cheat
Mountain and within the hunting ground
are score or more of soldiers picket posts,
built of stone for protection from stray
bullets of the enemy and left standing ex-
actly as constructed. They are usually
round, four or five feet in diameter and
about seven feet high. They were not
rooted and have loopholes covering every
direction; just big enough to see or shoot
through. The stones are grown
over with vines and moss The
posts are usually found in cleared
places and until an explanation is
given are unaccountable mysteries to stran-
gers. At one of them, an old musket,
musty, but still intact, is leaning against
stone wall. Two brass buttons, "U.
S. that were worn on soldiers belt
are lying on niche in the wall. They have
not been disturbed and club members have
been requested to leave them as they are.
The pike that was the issue of conflict
during the war in that part of the State is
itself thing of wonder both in its dura-
bility and the manner in which it was con-
structed. 1t is 500 miles long and was
built by the State of Virginia to remove
what was considered an unsurmountable
barrier The debt incurred for building is
evidently as enduring as the pike and still
hangs like doom over the Commonwealth.
The engineer who did the work was
famous Crovset, who as member of Napo-
Icons staff built the road over the Alps.
After Waterloo Croyset became a
fugitive aud sought refuge in
America, Virginia made him her
State surveyor and with reckless use of
money he built turnpike that will last as
long as the memory of his famous COM

LONDON, April 1.-THE defeat of the

night by majority of 80 was due to the bad
management of the Conservative whips, and
will have no important political conse-
quences The opium question has
never been strictly a party one. Poll

admit that theoretically it is a very wicked

millions of revenue from the opium traffic,
and for the British Government to fiji its
exchequer with the proceeds of taxes upon

| 10 obtain the same amount OF money In
more desirable manner.
India would lose over 5000, 900 rupees net
revenue yearly if The cultivation of opium
were prohibited as proposed in the House of
| Commons, and it is not likely that, as the
mover of the resolution last night suggested,
''for the sake of Christianity, morality and
humanity" England will pay India that
amount out Of her own pocket. Two men,
| bers were not ashamed to defend the opium
trade and indulgence in the drug as well.
DR.. FarquharsOn, Liberal member for Alb
erdeen, said there was not finer or more
manly race of people in the world than the

The other champion of the much abused
drug was Sir Richard Temple, Tory ex-

that all possible argument on the subject
was concentrated in his formula that it was
better for man to eat good opium than to
drink bad whisky

The Emperors opening Speech Is Peace

VIENNA, April 11-Emperor Francis
Joseph opened the session of the Reichsrath
to-day. His Majesty, in his speech, dwelt
upon the desire for peace manifested
throughout Europe. He said that all Euro
pean Governments had given him assur-
ances which denoted that peace was the most
essential object of their endeavors. This, he
added, combined with the friendly relations
now existing between the powers of Europe,
justifss the hope that peace will prevail for
many years to come, thus enabling the men,
bers of the Reichsrath 10 continue their
labors undisturbed by war or other serious
complications.
Continuing, the Emperor said that the
Government of Austria was endeavoring by
all the means in its power to bring about a
readjustment Of the politico-commercial re-
lations between Austria and foreign powers
as far as was necessary and desirable, with
the object in view OF concluding conven-
tons with the foreign powers simultan-
eously and for a long period. The object of
this was to enable Austrian industry and
agriculture TO prosper under q stable regime.
In conclusion. the Emperor emphasized the
urgent necessity of strengthening the
budget, the equilibrium of which. he said,
had been successfully established. Finally,
the Emperor announced that reforms were
projected in the system of direct taxation.
