BERLIN, Oct. 26.--1he chapel of the Rus sian embassy was crowded this evening with distinguished persons who had been invited to attend special service for the purpose of offering up prayers for the re- covery of the czar. The emperor of Ger many was one of the early corners and was received in the vestibule of the chapel by Count Won Schuvaloff, the Russian am bassador. There were also present Chan cellor Vou Caprivi, Count Botho Zu Eulen- burg, president of the Prussian council; Gen. Von Schellndolff, ,, minister of war; United States Embassador Runyon Messrs.

TWO SMACKS MISSING.

PENSACOLA, Fla., Oct. 26.-Two fishing smacks belonging to this port, the David Mitchell. Capt. George D. Merchant, and Sea Foam, Capt. Charles Mitchell have not as yet been heard from. They have been out twenty eight days from this port, and the friends of the seamen reluctantly admit that there is little or no hope of their ever returning. The David Mitchell belongs to Saunders & Co. ,and carried crew of seven men. Warren & Go. own the Sea Foam. Even if afioat tine water and provisions carried by them would have long since been exhausted, and unless picked up by some seagoing vessel they must have perished, and in the event they were picked up more than ample time has elapsed to have re- ceived news of their rescue.

MoRGANFIELD lDENTIFIED.

NEELEYvILiE, Mo.,' Oct. 26.-Chief of Police Flanagan of this city suspected when he read of the capture of Morganfield, i, one of the Virginia train robbers, that he was really Charles A. Morgan, who has made his home here with his young wife for the last two years. The chiefs sus- picion was confirmed by the receipt of a photograph of Morganfield, showing that he and Morgan were one and the same per- son. The train robber was :n the habit of leaving his home for month or two at a time. He departed the last time nearly two months ago and not even his wife knew of his whereabouts.

 THAT WHISKY MUST NOT BE SOLD.
 LONDON, Oct, 26.--There was much in- terest today in the meeting of the London county council, at which the appeal of the Empire music hall against the lincensing commission was heard. The commission had refused to grant the Empire 'sdrink- ing auditorinm'' license and had also compelled the closing of the promenade of that establishment. Some idea of the ex- tent of the crusade carried on against the Empire may be gathered from the fact that during the hearing of the appeal the Temperance Women's association held a four hou s,etncurrent rayer meeting and that prayers were offered in many of the chapels of London and it's suburbs during the past week in support of the action of the committee.
 Crowds of people attended the council hall today, among them being many mem- bers of the Social Purity league. | After several hours of discussion the council adopted the recommendation of the commission abolishing the promenade of the Empire and focbiiding selling drinks in | the auditorium. It is sn iounc d that the Empire will not be compele to close its doors.

Let the government issue $500, O00,-

so that these bonds may be used o.
the basis of circulation. and
let the banks be allowed to
issue against them at par their own
circulating notes. which shall be legal

$40. Also repeal the tax on national

Kinyoun, the Marine hospital surgeon,
who, at the invitation of Professor

statistics show that there has been q

..The efficacy OF the serum, the report
continues. Is better shown in the

Since the commencement OF the use Of

Another fact worthy OF note is tina
