Those members Of the Peninsula Press
Association who desire to attend the an
nual meeting at Delaware Water Gap,
July 21st, 1898, will kindly notify H c
Carpenter, Chairman of the Executive, at
once What is to be done must be done
this week The railroad fare will be about
81. 90 for the round trip and the cost of
board per day at the Water Gap House
will be s.. so. This is nearly one-half
rate and is as low as could be expected
considering the Accommodations that
would be given the Association.
Delaware Water Gap, as is we'll known,
is one of the most delightful summer re-
sorts in this part of the country, and the
Press Association could put in few days
there with great pleasure, and profit. Let
Mr.. Carpenter know this week what you
expect to do so that he can complete ar
rangements.

Count D'Orsay and Lady Holland.

A story going the rounds is one told OF
the famous Count d'Orsay. On the oc-
casion of his first visit to England, while
he was very young, very handsome and
not easily disconnected, he chanced to be
seated at dinner next to the brilliant and
singular Lady Holland.
That remarkable and many sided wo.
man was in, as it happened, one of her
imperious humors, and her young neigh
Dor soon felt its weight. She dropped
her napkin. The count picked it up gal,
lantly. Then her fan, then her fork, then
her glass, and as often her neighbor
stopped and restored the lost article. Al
last, however, the patience of the youth
gave way, and on her dropping her nap
kin again he turned and called one OF
the footmen behind him. PUT my plate
on the floor" said he. Il will finish my
dinner there. 1t will be so much more
convenient to my Lady Holland. New

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portions of the ear. There
Is only one way to cure deafness and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an infiamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustach1an Tube.
When this tnbe is infiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, deafness Is
the result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucOsu sur
faces.

any case of Deafness Caused Ly catarrh }

Telephoning Through Snow.

Professor A. Fl. Thompson, chief of
the United States Geological survey, re-
turned from the Black Hills few even
ings ago. The government has two par
ties in the hills, one at Rapid City and
the other at Deadwood. The professor
found the Rapid City party entirely
snowbound and tells tale of how he
got communication with them. He
worked his way toward the men until
he came within speaking distance. By
that time further passage seemed to be
impracticable, but by accident they had
occasion to resort to a peculiar expedi-
ent. They talked through the snow.
The snow acted as a conductor of sound,
and with some difficulty they made one
another Observation-Disclosures Republi.

A LONG ISLAND MYSTERY.
A Skeleton Declared to Be That of an II
dian, but There Are Some Who Doubt Ii

A Skeleton Declared to Be That of an In
dian, but There Are Some Who Doubt 1t.
Justice Cooper and jury, in the alb
sence of Coroner Moore, held an inquest
at Babylon, n. Y, the other day over
the skeleton which was unearthed on
the property of John S. Foster yester-
day by some men engaged in digging
post holes. A number of old residents
of the village were sworn, but were un-
able to throw any light on the subject
or identify the remains. They all stated
that they could not recollect the sud-
den disappearance Of any man. The
Oldest witness, however, said that the
ground where the skeleton was found
had never been used as graveyard.
Charles I. Bedell, resident Of that
portion Of the town and farmer, owner
of the property, stated that he had plowed
the ground in question about eight years
ago. From this it would seem that had
the body been there then it would have
been unearthed, as it was only 18 inches
under ground. The jury returned ver-
dict stating that in its opinion the skel-
eton was that of an Indian who had
been buried about 40 years and had come
to his death from natural causes.
The village people generally believe
that it was the skeleton of murdered
man whose body was brought ashore
and buried.

Mrs. Grants Hunt For a Home.

Mrs. Grant has determined to make
her future home in Washington, and
during her recent sojourn here spent
most of her time in house hunting. AL
most every available residence in the
West End now vacant was offered for
her consideration through the various
real estate agents, and it is safe to
assert that she made an exhaustive ex-
animation of no less than so before
leaving for New York with her daugh-
ter, without coming to any definite con-
clusion in regard to selection. Those
that suited her fancy did not suit her
purse, and when houses desirable in both
these respects were offered for her ap-
proval, the locality, as rule, proved
unsatisfactory. Mrs. Grant has not Civ

William Mckinley, who won the most
notable Republican victory in the late
campaign is perhaps the best known
American of our time. His name is a
household word in our country. and in
Europe the man who gave his name to
our new tariff bill is both feared and
hated. Governor Mckinley was born at
Niles, Ohio, Feb. 26, 1874. At the out
break of the Civil war he enlisted in the
23d Ohio Regiment and was mustered out
of the same regiment as major in Sep
tember, 1865. Governor Mckinley was a
member of the 45th, 10th, 47th, 48th, 10th
and 5Oth Congresses, aud was reelected
to the 51st Congress. Governor Mckinley
is the leading Republican on this Cont
nent and the recent contest was watched
with considerable interest all over the
country.

Growth of the Human Heart.

DR.. Benecke of Marburg has made
known his observations on the growth
of the human heart, the fact appearing
that the increase is greatest and most
rapid during the first and second years
of life, its bulk at the end of the second
year being exactly double what it origin
ally was. Between the second and
seventh years it is again doubled in size.
A slower rate of growth then sets in and
continues during the period of maturity
of other portions of the body. After the
fifteenth year up to the fiftieth the an
nual growth of the heart is about .061 of
a cubic inch, the increase ceasing about
the fftieth year.-Leisure Moments.

A Patient Suffering From a Peculiar Dis
ease In a st. Louis Hospital.
There is a marble man" at the City
hospital. He is whittier than the alabas-
ter statue Dixey makes in ''Adonis," and
the driven snow" would soil his cheeks.
Not only is his skin absolutely colorless,
but his tongue, gums and finger nails
are devoid of all hint Of blood dyeing.
He is believed to be the first patient suf-
fering from the peculiar ailment he is
afflicted with that ever stepped inside
St. Louis. AS is proper with such a
very distinguished disease, it has very
sristocratic nnme-anchylostom do

A very. vexy rare little worm is en-
gagged in merrily sucking the red cor
puscles, or life giving element, from this
poor fellows blood, and if the unwel-
some tenant Is not gotten rid of pretty
soon the patient will fade away to a
shadow and die from sheer lack of nour-
ishment, though his stomach be full of
food. Albert Abbink, young man who
came from Germany, is the patient, and
he isn't at all proud of it either. He
looks like a marble statue, and very
skeletonish one at that, and has great
difficulty IN moving around owing to his
weakness.
Though this peculiar disease, or affec-
tion, is very rare in this part of the
country, it is common enough in Italy
and Germany. The worms are supposed
to be in certain kinds of muddy water,
and it has been noticed that brickmakers
and pottery operatives in the old country
are peculiarly apt to get them. When
the great ST. Gothard tunnel was be-
ing dug it was discovered that nearly
every workman engaged upon the job
suffered from this plague. Ii was first

weakness was named Egyptian chl0rosis.
Scientists are pretty certain that the
Pharaohs had it, and some are inclined
to believe that the plague of toads men
toned in holy writ was none other than
the plague of anchylostomum dode-

Dr.. Marks believes he can assist Alb.

parasites, several of which now occupy

Need of an International Agreement Fof
Their Marking or Removal.
A Washington dispatch anent the res.
olution of Congressman Cummings pro-
viding for an international agreemeEs
for the reporting, marking and removal
of derelicts in the north Atlantic ocean
says:
Secretary Carlisle, in a letter TO the
committee on the subject, says that the
necessity for such an agreement among
the governments concerned was empha-
sized by the international marine con-
ference held in Washington in 1899. He
believes the resolution a proper one and
recommends its passage. Accompany
ing his letter are extracts from the re-
port of the commissioner of navigation
on the subject.
Commissioner O'Brien in his report
especially invites attention to the sub
ject of derelicts and other distractions
to navigation. He refers TO it as mat
ter of international concernment and
one of great Importance. President Mink
of the American Steamship association,
in letter to Mr.. O Brien, says that he
is informed that the commissioner is
making heroic efforts TO get rid of dere-
licts off the Atlantic coast. He is re-
joiced at this, as the members of the as
sociatiOn are complaining bitterly at
these unlighted and unmarked obstruc-
tions. They have been so frequent Of
late that no captain feels easy in going
UP or down the coast.
Mr.. Mallory says that precious car
goes and still more precious lives are
greatly threatened every time vessel
passes between the United States and
Europe and along the North American
coast, and they are not infrequently de-
stroyed. Charts have done much for the
safety of commerce by showing the posi-
tiops OF 332 vessels abandoned on the high
seas and by marking the drift tracks Of
139 of them. But they have utterly
failed, and this is an alarming fact, to
show the tracks of 625 derelicts which
have been reported. 1t another alarm
ing fact that they have tracks and do
drift. They are here today, yOnder to-
morrow. They are a rowing feet that
always hover upon the pathway of COM
merce. They are more dangerous than
a fleet Of pirates, because they are vast
ly more numerous, because they strike
even more by night than by day and be-
cause they are more merciless when they
do strike. To destroy them is the only
effective wav of dealing with them
