A LITTLE COMMON SENSE.
About Malaria-What Old Cases of Ague
Shout Know.

Shout Know.
You have had fever and ague; or,
perhaps you have had dumb ague, in
which there are no distinct chills.
AT any rate, you have malaria in
your system, which makes Won mis-
cradle during the later summer
months and fall. You have doctored
much. Quinine you have taken till
your ears ring, arsenic till your
nerves CULVER, and strychnia till
hangs about. You don't feel good a
little bit. Miserable! that's the only
word that describes it. Chilly feel
ings, hot flashes, cold feet and legs,
coated tongue, bad taste, offensive
breath, poor digestion and appetite
all these and more. TONES fail,
nervines are useless, and liver medi-
cines waste of time and money.
But Pe-ru-na will cure you-cure
you ompletely-make you feel as
good as new. And you will stay
cured, too. Pe-ru.na contains no
quinine to injure the brain. no arse
mic to destroy the stomach, no
| strychnia to impair the nerves. 1t
is a natural, wholesome, never-fail-
ing nerve tonic, blood purifier and
invigorator of the whole system.

THE PORT TAMPA FEVER.
No Alarm Felt About the Gases at
That Point

Tampa, Fla, Aug. 21.-The scare of
last Saturday is abating, and there are
no new cases of fever at Port Tampa City.
DIR, Porter, who is an expert on yellow
fever, states that the people here have no
cause for alarms Trains have been
stopped on the South Florida and com
munieation is cut off except by telephone.
Everything is quiet and there is no danger
apprehended unless those who were in
contact with the patients on board the
Markomania become affected, but they are
isolated and quarantined against ap-
proach. The state health officer states
that there is no yellow fever
nor other quarautinable disease at the
docks, Port Tampa, Port Tampa City,
nor Y Dor, and that the establishment Of a
quarantine against this section of the
state is entirely unnecessary. He further
states that what Health Officer Porter
says concerning the cases of fever on
board the steamship Markomania, he has
no official opinion to express at this time.
He did not see the patients and the YES
sci was sent to the quarantine station at
TOrtugas before his arrival Sunday night
at Port Tampa. When the history of the
cases from physicians there and the
quarantine officers at Tortugas and
Mullet Key station Is obtained a definite
opinion can be formed, 1t suffices now
to say that the suspicious fever attaching
to the vessels and crew, the docks and
Port Tampa are held under observation
and surveillance for the incubation
period of five days, and all precautions
necessary have been and are being
taken.
WHEN THE FEVER IF ANY SHOULD DEVELOP.
BY Wednesday at the latest those
people who have been exposed, should
develop symptoms of fever if they have
become infected If nothing develops
up to that time there will be no further
danger. DIR. Murray left for Tortugas
tonight to investigate the situation.

ARGUMENT IN THE LEE-MANTLE CASE.
The Lee-Mantle case involving the
right Of governor of a state to appoint a
senator in case the legislature had failed
to elect one, was taken up, and Mr.. Vance
argued against the right of appointment
in such cases.
Mr. George also argued against the
right of governors to appoint senators to
NIL vacancies occurring by the expiration
of previous legislature, such right being
confined by the constitution to vacancies
happening by resignation or otherwise. -
At the close of Georges speech the
Senate spent a short time in executive
session and then, at 4:10 o'clock, ad-

BLOODY RIoT1Na AT ROME.
Result of the italian Massacre al
Aigues-Mortes


Aigues-Mortes.
Rome, Aug. 21.-The troubles growing
out of the fighting between French and
Italian workingmen employed at the salt
works. in Aigues-Mortes, France, threat
en- to involve grave international compli-
cations. A most serious outbreak of pop
ular feeling against the French occurred
in this city late last night, when a hOot-
ing mob attempted to burn the French
embassy.
THE MOB CARRYING CANS OF PETROLEUM.
Some rioters carried cans of petroleum,
and did not hesitate to openly declare
their intention to destroy the embassy
The authorities anticipated the attack on
the embassy, and a strong force Of troops
was detailed to guard the building. The
rioters attempted to carry out their
threats and refused to disperse. The
soldiers charged upon them. They held
their ground for time and fought stub
bornly. Not until several charges had
been made did they begin to retreat,
fighting all the time. Forty-fve were ar
rested. Many were wounded by sabres,
which the soldiers used unsparingly.
Rioting in the provincial towns was only
quelled by troops, the police being utterly
powerless to handle the mob.

Republican Gains.
Paris Aug. 21.-The Chamber of Depu-
ties consists of 5S4 members, of whom

socialists, 6 ;revisionals, q reyolutionists
and 81 loyalists.
ONLY THREE BOULANGIsTs RETURNED.
Reballots will have to be taken in 155
districts. The results of these reballots
will undoubtedly mostly be favorable to
the republicans, whose gains now reach
total of 63 seats. In the last general
election the Boulangists returned 30
members. Yesterday they elected only
three. The defeat of the royal
lists is causing much significant
comment, and it is predicted
that it means the ultimate extinction of
the party The departments of the Var
and Lorraine in Frieur, hitherto strong
holds of the royalists, have been wrested
from them by the republicans, who are
jubilant over the gains they have made.
