Foolirg With Moonshiners.

1t was known in the United States mar
shafs office at Nashville that wildcat
whisky was coming down the Cumberland
river. The marshal was new in Office
said Opie Read, and therefore was de-
termined to do his duty, which of course,
was to see that the Illicit ,distilleries
no matter how remote, should be de-
stroyed, and that the distillers should be
brought to justice. His predecessor in
office had been likewise determined, and
had sent brave men to the mountains
but whisky had continued to come down
the Cumberland river. The present mar
shall Capt. Hayes an old confederate Of
ficer, said that he thought that when the
boys found out that he really wanted them
them; he knew their natures, their i'm
pulsIveness and their disposition to yield
TO persuasion. So he sent deputy and
four men to tell the boys to quit One
night about week later some one rang
the door bell. and the marshal himself
went to the door.

IT WAS NOT SAVANNAH.
GEORGETOWN, 8. c., Taken for Georgia
Port

GEORGETOWN, 8. c., Taken for a Georgia
Port.
Surgeon General Wiman in an inter
view says that with the coming of frost
all danger of epidemics is passing away.
Frost will insure safety, he says.
In mentioning improvements in the ser
vice the surgeon general refers to Il
Georgia port where considerable loose
ness existed in the quarantine, vessels
dropping anchor in the roads while tile
captains went up to the custom house,
several miles away to make their en-
tries, leaving their crews to go ashore as
they liked and spread infection, If
any existed aboard the ship. This, he
said had beeen remedied by having an
inspector meet the vessel at the outer
port and send it to quarantine at once
IL he found II infected.
As there are only two ports of impor-
lance on the Georgia coast, Savannah
and Brunswick, Health officer Drummer
was asked which one was referred to
by the surgeon general in his remarks.
DR.. Drummer replied that neither Bruins
wick or Savannah was intended, but
GEORGETOWN, S. c., where the evil COM
planned of existed earlier in the season,
hut which has been remedied by the sur
geon general as stated. There is no
government Inspector at the Savannah
quarantine said DR.. Drummer
"This has been an unusually bad year
for yellow fever" said Or. Wiman.
There have been epidemics Of the fever
raging in almost all OF the countries south
of us, and particularly in Cuba. We are
terribly menaced every year by the near
ness OF Havana to our shores. That
port, which is. only few hours by steam
err from Key West, is seldom free from
the scourge It's harbor is "A constant
source OF infection, and there is scarcely
"A season that does not bring scores OF
infected vessels TO our ports. This year
a great majority of our cases have come
from there.
notwithstanding this danger that has
been present ever since the beginning OF
warm weather, we have not had single
case Of yellow fever In the country, all
OF the germs having been caught at quar-
antine. / consider that this has more
than demonstrated the possibility of our
keeping clear Of the disease. This season

WHAT WOMEN NEED.
There Are InnumerabIe Things That Con-
tribute to Their Comfort, Their Happi-
ness and Their Health.

Women are naturally weaker than men
and more Respondent. They suffer and
require assistance. Far too often this is
not appreciated, but 1t is nevertheless
necessary. Men are made to battle with
the world and with each other; women
possess the gentle traits which entitle
them to consideration and kindness. 1t
stands to reason that when women do not
feel well; when their strength seems all
gone and they are dependent; often dis
couraged, they need. indeed must have, as
sistance. This assistance can best be rem
dered in the form of some gentle stimu-
liant which enables them to regain their
strength, preserve their health, their
beauty, and their attractiveness. AT such
times nothing can equal medicinal whis-
key, and Dufy's Pure Malt is the only
preparation which has ever met this re-
quirement There are women who realize
this truth fully, and follow carefully the
path named. They realize their needs and
always act upon such knowledge
The above remarks We're made by a
bright and prominent lady in New York
society, and she voiced the sentiment of
hundreds of others who have passed
through similar experiences. This great
medicinal whiskey, which is the only one
on the market that possesses the power
named, can be procured of any reputable
druggist or grocer. Do not be induced TO
take any other.

SHOOT EN- WITH STEAM.
An old Railroader's Suggestion to Pre-
vent Robberies of Express Cars.


vent Robberies of Express Cars.
Ediaor Morning News: Insyour edi-
,orial of to-day, Another View of Train
RobberIes," note especially that part
,,bere you say: 1.-The remedies that the
v-iseacres suggest are legion, some Of
tbarn amusing all of them highly eX-
nanstve, and ninety-nine in one hundred
impracticable. Most of the ideas of the
reforners of railway traffic run to armed
Guards or chilled steel forts on wheels"
While the remedies that the wiseacres
suggest are legion hope / am not too
late with my Suggestion" Place the OK
rress car next to the engine. Have a
steam pipe running from the boiler to the
rear of the tender with the necessary
connections Same as provided for steam
heating cars). Connect to this steam
nine a steam hose, which must pass
through the end of the express car, say
twenty feet. On the end of the steam
hose in the express car place a spout or
nozzle same as those used on water hose
of fire engines, and a thumb valve at the
end Of the spout which can be operated
nv the messenger. The steam hose with
a pressure of so to rs pounds to the square
inch, when opened by the messenger with
the thumb valve and pointed in the direc-
tion needed, would be more demoralizing
and certainly more effective than a re-
yoIver or Winchester, as with either, If
the mark is missed, the robber will then
have his chance to fire on the messenger.
With the steam hose the robber could not
enter the car against the volume of steam
he would have to face. The first cost for
the steam hose would be very small and
the maintenance scarcely anything, while
the steam would be supplied from the en-
CINE at no cost to the express company.
Now, Mr.. Editor, will this suggestion so
in the ninety and nine as impracticable ?
This suggestion is based upon an expert
ence of over twenty years of railroad
life. Old Railroader.

From the Helena Independent.
In this city recently the possessor of a
diamond ring requested a friend to take
the ring to a reputable house and borrow
$40 upon It, The friend complied and soon
returned with the money The ring was
placed in the safe by the man who fur
nished the cash, there to remain until it
should be redeemed Later on No 2, who
pawned the ring for No. 1, concluded that
he would like to have So and as the ring
was a valuable one, he returned to the
man with the safe and asked for the
money, which was readily furnished, the
safe man supposing the ring belonged to

on it happened that the safe man went

taken by another. The second safe man
knew nothing about the transactions Of
the first safe man (No. - presented him

A Scheme That Failed.
FROM the New York Post.


The collapse of the souvenir coin fad
recalls the fact that a syndicate was
formed during the summer of 1893 for
taking and disposing of 100000 of the half
dollars. Some large jewelry houses were
interested in the enterprise, which might
have grown to larger proportions If any
encouragement had been received. 1t
seems that a leading American jeweler,
while on a journey abroad, saw some of
the British souvenir coins, struck in honor
of Queen Victorias jubilee, beautifully
decorated with enamel and mounted as
watch charms, brooches, etc. He took a
number of Columbian half dollars to
London with him last year, and had them
treated in the same way. One device was
to cover all the body of the diverse of
the coin with translucent enamel, leaving
the head of Columbus and the inscription
uncovered. In another the reverse side
was treated, the caraVel being Colored,
or the field against which it was pro-
jected. No two designs we're alike. and
the coins were eagerly snapped up at So,
SO and even $40 apiece by curiosity seek
ers. But no sooner was the formal prop
osition made to take the 100000 coins out
of the custody of the treasury for the
purpose mentioned than the secret SER
vice people pounced upon the interested
parties and warned them that every coin
thus treated and exposed for sale would
be seized. No law against the mutilation
of coins appeared to stand in the way,
but the argument of Chief Drummond,
as well as 1t could be understood, was
that some evil-minded person might
scrape off the enamel from the decorated
coins and pass them upon unsuspecting
poor persons, who would then find them
selves with a coin in their possession
bearing on it's face the value of so cents,
but on account of it's mutilation com
manding in the market only it's bullion
value, which, with silver at its present
depreciation, would be only a quarter OF
a dollar. The opposition of Chief Drum
mond, supported by Secretary Carlisle
broke UP the plan. ...
