used ON vessels navigating the Manches-
ter ship canal at night. The apparatus

It is of vital importance that it should be I'M

that this condition of things is finally inductive

balance Bright's disease, diabetes, albuminuria
are all diseases of Il very obstinate character in
their mature stage, and all have fatal tendency;
They often battle the most praciced medical

There is considerable speculation in
Yachting circles. now that General But
Ter is dead, as to into whose hands the
old America will fall. Mr.. Paul Butler
told me that he had not the slightest
idea as to whether he should retain it or
not. Current opinion in Lowell has de-
cided that he will not, His pet hobby
is canoeing, and it is doubtful if he will
change at this day. The generals last
cruise, by the way, he told me, was
taken with the New York Yacht club
when he sailed up with them from New
port, the America giving many Of the
new yachts tussle. After that he took
q number of short trips up along the
north shore. but this was his last cruise

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

the result, aud unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube rest red to its normal

which is nothing but an inflamed condition of

Another aIrship has been projected by
NJ. Grensfelder. who has just received
his patent papers from Washington. The
ship is cigar shaped affair, 100 feet
long and 30 feet in diameter. 1t will
hold $4,000 cubic feet of gas and carry
$500 pounds. The feature of the inven-
ton is that it can be steered. There are
several mechanical innovations for which
great results are promised. The inyen-
ton varies from most airships in that it
can float in the water The framework
will be of steel or aluminium, the ribs
being covered by light alright cover
which will receive several coats of var
nish. The gas will be stored i'll cham
Der at each end, and there will be space
left for a cabin in the middle. In this
cabin the electric motor. anchor and all
the other mechanism will find lodg-
ment. A strong partition will separate
the machine and passenger quarters

Medina had 7leUer seen before
The constant fighting with the Indian
tribes, necessary through the demand
for slaves and for the conquest of the
country, made the Spanish main Won
derful place for the young soldier. and
Don Francisco looked forward with de-
light to his first expedition. In those
days q Spaniard of Den francesca Me-
dina's rank was naturally soldier. The
captain general had fought in the armies
of his country even as his ancestors had
fought before him and he no more
dreamed that his son should not serve
than he had visions of that son being
afraid to go. A nobleman of Spain
might go into the church, but otherwise
his college was the army, whatever his
after career might be. So the captain
general was as pleased as Don Francesca
when he found that Colonel Honradez
had merely waited for his arrival before
leaving on an expedi ion against the
Guajeros, those war Ike Indians who
have never been who'll subdued. The
boy would be in capital hands, the cap

Mir Gilson Is not we'll enough to do manual labor in our severe climate here and has tried to get to Florida, where he will get some of Uncle Sam s land, and hopes to be able to make decent living: He started for Florida last May with horse aud wagon and got as far as Manassas Junction, when his companions, being discouraged, started back North and he had to come with them. MT Gilson has described his journeyiDgs in quaint verse and had them printed and is selling them at 5 cents each. He also has another of his poems printed descriptive of life at the soldiers home at "Togus, Down in Maine" which he is also selling at the same price. Gilson enlisted when only 14 years old and served over three years h the army, and six months in Libby Prison. He hopes by the sale of his verses to get enough to make another start for Florida in the spring.
