ALONG THE NILE.
Interesting Letter from the
UndercIyfe Party-GIimpses at Gu
rious Places and People.
AssoUAN, THE NILE, Egypt, |
March 18th, 1898. I


\ voyage through the Mediterranean
has an attraction which no other sea
can give, for every portion of its blue
waters is historic So, at least, it seem
ed to the Underclyife party, as we left
Gibraltar, skirted the Spanish and
French coasts and came to Genoa,
whittier many of the passengers of the
the Fuerst Bismarck were bound and
where we remained for three days and a
half. We had ar opportunity to see the
quaint and historic old city, which used
to bear the name of LA Superba," and
also visit Milan with its wonderful
cathedral and beautiful pictures. A
carnival was going on and the streets
were gay with the Milanese in holiday
dress.
As the Fuerst Bismarck was the largest
steamer which had ever entered the
harbor at Genoa, a crowd of Italians
were on the wharf as we steamed out of
the bay on the evening of Feb. 18th.
The next morning we reached Corsica
and the town of Ajaccio lay at our feet,
All day our thoughts travelled back to
fore us, who had risen to such heights
and ended his life on that barren island,
so far from this, in the blue waters of the
Mediterranean,
The next morning the Straits of
Benefacio were passed and we watched
for Caprera, where Garibaldi spent his
last days and was laid to rest off the
coast of Sardinia. BY six O'Clock a. M,
the following day Stromboli and the
other islands of the Lipari group were at
hand In the distance, Etna's snowy
sides were tinted with rose in the sun,
light. For long time we gazed at the
two volcanoes, one frowning and black
smoking and exploding, the other ex
tending its height into the clouds like 6
mountain of snow
Our excitement increased as we came in
to the Strait of Messiua and had Charyb
dis, anarrow strip of sandy beach, on on,
side, and Scylla, picturesque amphi
theatre shaped rock, on the other. w
passed the two in safety, thankful tina
, we were in stronger craft than that o

well at Reggie, the ancient Rhegum

REST SPRING REMEDY IN THE
WORLD-PAINE'S CELERY COM
POUND
There is one true specific for diseases
arising from debillated nervoussystem
and that is Paines celery compound, so
generally prescribed by physicians. 1t
is probably the most remarkable remedy
that the scientific research Of this coun-
try has produced. Prof. Edward E.
Phelps, M. D., LII. D., Of Dartmouth
College, first prescribed what is now
known the world over as Paine's celery
compound, a positive cure for dyspepsia,
biIiousness, liver complaint, neuralgia,
rheumatism, all nervous diseases and
kidney troubles. For the latter, Paine's
celery compound has succeeded again
and again where everything else has
failed.
The medical journals of this country
have given more space in the last few
years to the many remarkable cases
where the use of Paine's celery COM
pound has made people well, than to
any one subject.

A Sad Accident.

" hte Rose, wife of White Bull, a
chief Of the Iroquois tribe, travelling
with Boyden's Wild West Show, was
killed at the Fair Grounds Thursday
morning about eleven o'clock. a
race was on and her horse, going at a
rapid gait, swerved from his course to
go through one of the openings in the
railing around the course. She check
ed him too suddenly and losing her
balance was hurled against post.
Blood gushed from her nose and
mouth, and never speaking, she
was dead in half an hour. She was
about a5 years of age.
This death calls attention to the
necessity for continuous fence
around the race course. Each OF the
openings are temptation to horse to
leave the track and endanger the life
of the rider or driver.-BeracicE M0e-

Swamps Filled With Bodies.
STORM SURVIVORS URGENTLY IN NEED
OF RELIEF.

The news from every section OF
louisiana stricken by the storm
makes it safe to estimate the ,oss OF
life at fully 1000, while millions of
dollars worth of property was destroy
ed. Besides that, thousands of peo
pie have been deprived of means oI
making livelihood. The situation
is appalling, but New Orleans is doing
all it can to relieve the thousands in
want.
DR.. Story, Coroner of Plaquemine
parish, has made the following report;
"a good many carloads of provis,
ions and clothing have been sent, but
not near enough. Men, women and
children are without food and clothing.
They have become SO desperate tina,
they have threatened to attack the
stores and steal food. Single graves
for the dead were impossible. Great
trenches were dug and bodies were
piled in one on top of the other.
81 do not think l exaggerate the
facts when l state that at least 2,5oo
souls were ushered into eternity by the
recent storm in Louisiana. l never
saw bodies decompose so rapidly as
those of the storm-sufferers which
were viewed by me. This was due to
the fact that the fish and crabs in the
bayous eat the remains. | believe
firmly that the marshes and other
places are filled with human forms.
"There can be no doubt of the fact
that this is conducive to an epidemic
Of fever, or even cholera. If one case
Of the latter disease should develop it
would spread through the country
like wildfre, but nothing can be done
to prevent this"
The relief party which set out from
Biloxi tells an awful story of the desti-
tuition and loss of life in the Louisiana
marshes. The marshes are filed with
dead and putrefying bodies, in very
few cases the corpses being recogniza-
bic. The number of lives lost on
those marshes will never be known.
The territory covered was a distance
of 200 miles. The only sign Of life
seen in the marsh was one raccoon
and it was floating on log.
Captain Julian Leiort, the leading
spirit among the survivors of the
Cheniere Camanada, places the num-
Der of saved at 800. The population
Of the island and the bayous immedi-
ately connected with it was slightly
more than 1900. He says the is
land will be abandoned as habita-
ton of man. Grand Isle and Chem
deleur will also be abandoned.
