Even Duchesses Have Trouble.

The recent announcement that the Grand
Duchess Vladimir has been prohibited from
attending reviews of the Russian army
calls renewed attention to the relig-
ious situation in the realms of the
czar. 1t follows right on the heels
of the conversion of the Grand Duchess
Serge to the Greek Orthodox church, an
event which created disnay among con-
tinental royal families. Three royal ladies
became wives of Russian grand dukes with
the express stipulation of retaining their
own faith-Princess Marie of Mecklenburg-
Schwerin, now the Grand Duchess Vladi-
mir; Princess Elizabeth of fSaxe-Altenburg,
wife of the Grand Duke Constantine Con-
stantinovitch, and Princess Elizabeth of
Hesse, the Grand Duchess Serge. Notwith-
standing all Russian official denials, it is
plain, says London paper, that considera-
BILE pressure has been laid upon all three,
successfully in the case of the Grand
Duchess Serge, while another, Princess
Elizabeth. is reported to be wavering. The
Grand Duchess Marie is not to be persuad-
ed, however, and hence the recent express
sion of the czar's displeasure. IT this
practice be persisted in, the reigning Euro
pean families of different creed will be un-
willing to accept Russian grand dukes as

DR.. James McCosh, the venerable ex-
president of Princeton college, recently
reached his eightieth birthday. DR.. Nc
Gosh is still the very picture of health, and
is in the enjoyment of all his faculties
The occasion was made particularly mem
orable by number of costly presents from
the faculty and old students of Princeton
Dr. McCosh became president of the fa-
nous college just one century after John
Witherspoon's Inauguration to the same
Office, and under his administration the
pages of its history were noteworthy and
splendid. The number of students doubled
under his regime, and great work was
wrought in stamping out the semi-barba-
rous customs which made college life in the
olden times hard and disagreeable to stu
dents of sensitive turn.
DR.. McCosh is the author of large num-
Der of philosophical works. Two of his
books on psychology are used as text books
in the University of Calcutta, and are we'll
and favorably known in Ceylon and Japan.

The seventy-second birthday of Rabbi
Isaac M. Wise, the distinguished theo-
logian and writer, was joyfully observed
by the Hebrews of Cincinnati and neigh
borhood a short time ago. Congratula-
tions poured in from every section, and DR..
Wise, who enjoys remarkably good health,
was perfect picture of happiness and con-
tentment. Rabbi Wise was born in Bo-
hemia in 1919, and entered the ministry in
1S43. He was twenty-seven years old when
he left his native land for the United
States. He spent eight years in Albany,
N. Y, ands went to Cincinnati in 1854.
Since then he has been constantly in har-
ness, and is still the active head of the
Plum Street Temple congregation. DIR.
Wise recently finished the most important
literary work of his life. 1t is named
''Pronaus," the Latin word for a porch,

BRONCHITIS.

Bronchitis is a disease of the mucous mem.
brane of the air passage, and is one OF tne most
common of the pulmonary afectlons. ChIonlc
bronchitis more often appears later In hfe
When cold settles on the lungs the ulsease
either ends in bronchitis or pneumonia. III "
ends in bronchitis 1t usually passes on as col9
on the chest, and still the patient does not 1eei
entirely well. He feels tired and languid, amos
is incapable of taking his usual amount OF
exercise and experiences a shortness OF breath
with more or less warmth in the pains OF the
hands. Soon after this cough appears, ac-
companied by an expectoratlon OF tnlcK oa anu m1
and strength, and night sweats continue, when
the patient assumes al The appearance OF hay
ing genuine case OF consump ption. But THIS
is simply catarrh OF the lungsor chronic bron-
| chitis
The patient usually dies from exhaustion
| and suffocation, being unable to expectorate
the mucous which accumulates in the passage
leading to the lungs, which in some cases is
sticky and small in quantity. but more ,,s,nh CON-
Dry Bronchitis-This disease, the very oppo-
site of the above, is a very common affection.
Very many people, who regard themselves as
quite healthy, are today under its influence,
and are slowly but surely becoming the vic
Tins of this treacherous complaint. This is
the most insidious of all pulmonary diseases.
There may at first be a slight. hacking cough
and an expectoration OF blush white mu-
cous And herein lies the danger. This mu-
cous, inhabiting the afr cells of the lungs, be-
ing difficult to raise, after time becomes
solidifed, permanently obstructng portions OF
feeling of oppression on the chest, particularly
after meals or on slight exertion. After time
the cough becomes more severe ana comes on
in paroxysms, and as the shortness of breathin-
creases It almost assumes the character of
asthma The mucous membrane also be-
comes more and more thickened, which arises
from the frequent fresh colds, and the patient
at last becomes fully aware of the terrible
changes that have taken place and the newt
able results that are to follow.

durable, but with these, aided with our Medi-
Gated Inhalations and Compound Oxygen

The Feeling Against the Americans
Still Strong In Chile Month Ago.
The Killing of the Baltimore's Sail.
ors Not Looked Upon as Anything
to Be Regretted-The Sailors Eager
for Revenge.
pondeut OF the Associated Press from
Santiago, Chile, under date OF Nov. 81,
says: The feeling against Americans is so
strong that ever since the congressional
party came into power q majority of the
people are disposed TO regard the killing OF
few American sailors as a very trifing
affair, and express much surprise that the
United States should haye taken official no.
tice Of the matter. The reports Of the
inUendente of Valparaiso say
there were 1900 men engaged
in the sailors fight. He gives this figure TO
show that the police were powerless to ouell
the disturbance. As a matter of fact there
was not anywhere near half that number,
and the police found ample opportunity to
stop the trouble.
WANTED REVENGE.
For some time following the attack there
was strong feeling among the crew of the
Baltimore, and the men would have liked
TO send another party ashore better
equipped. or the thirty-six American
sailors arrested at the time Of the fight not
one had weapon more formidable
than sailors jack knife. The cores
pondent9s says President Montt has
given no special indication Of any sympathy
with the general ill-feeling in Chile against
the United States. In recent interview
with the Associated Press correspondent he
expressed o hope that all the difficulties
would be settled amicably, as he did not be-
lieve the people Of either nation desired
trouble. He also expressed disapproval Of
the accusation and insinuatlons made
against the American minister by certain
Chileans IN the United States, protesting TO
speak for the Chilean government.

ROME, Dec. s3--The pope delivered an
address at the annual reception Of she
sacred college to-day, referring to bis labor
encyclIcal. He said that he was
gratihed that that document had
produced a marked movement among the
working classes toward the holy see. His
object in addressing the French workmen's
pilgrimage had been TO render the encyclca
more effective. He had designed similarly to
address pilgrimages organized in Europe
and America, he said. but the visits OF
bodies OF workmen had been suddsnly

The word OF the pope had always been the
word OF peace, sweetness and charity.
Even when the occupant OF the
holy see demanded his rights and
claimed real independence his claims served
the cause Of peace. The adversaries of the
Roman Catholic church strove to defeat its

Vacancies.

The President Fails to Provide for
Vecanciee
WASHINGTON, Dec 2s-There was COM
ments at the capitol to-day upon the fail
ure of the President to send to the Senate
for confirmation the names of persons TO
fill the vacancies in the interstate commerce
commission. One of the originally
appointed commissioners is dead, one
has resigned, and Commissioner Morrisons
term of Office will expire Jan. l, before the
Senate reassembles. Owing to the peculiar
phraseology Of the creating act, the terms
OF the commissioners expire at the end of
the period for which they are appointed in
stead Of continuing, as Il, usual,
until the qualification Of their successors.
30 that when Commissioner Morrison's
term OF office ceases Jan. she commission
will consist OF but two members, some
fears have been expressed that the commls.
sion will be seriously crippled and pre-
vented from disoharging its full func-
tions after the FIRST of the
year, owing TO this state of
affairs, but it appears from perusal Of the
act that the emergency is guarded against
by paragraph in section II providing that
no vacancy in the commission shall impair
the right Of the remaining commissioners to
exercise all the powers Of the commission.
