Washington's birthday at the
State Prison.

State Prison.
WaShington's birthday was observed
rs a Holiday at the prison, and the in
mates were given an opportunity to en-
joy themselves as best they could.
Shortly after Q o'clock the ~convicts
gathered in the chapel, where they lis
tened to a very able address delivered
by Rev. G. b. Wilcox. of the First
Methodist church, st. Paul. The speak
er held his audience spellbound from
the start, and few better lectures have
eve been delivered in the prison. At
the close a vote of thanks was. rendered
him, the convlcts showing their appre-
citation of the address by raising their
right hands. After the rendition of q
vocal selection by the choir the ~convicts
repaired TO the large paint shop, where
they enjoyed themselves one way and
another until the whistle sounded for
dinner. AS OIL former occasions when
the convictS have been given the liberty
of the paint shop, Meiggs and Fleury,
the st. Paul bank robbers, sought
each others company, and were en-
gagged In earnest conversation. MeiggS
claims he is suffering with the rheu-
matiSm. and says that confinement is
beginning to tell on him in a manner
that will surely result in his demise

LAMONT FOR ECONOMY.
He Favcrs No River and Harbor
Appropriations.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 22.-Members of
the river and narbor committee of the
house say that Secretary Lamont has
suggested to the Democratic members
OF the committee the a~dviSability of
making no appropriations for this year,
as the appropriations now on hand
could be utilized on the important
works, and that, on the other hand.
there could be a suspension without any
serious damage resulting. The CO m.
mittee did not think it best to go to this
extent in the policy of economy. but re-
solved to recommend only such ppro-
pllationS as are necessary to continue
work already under way, and to begin no
new Improvements OF any kind. Mem
DerS who have appeared before the COM
mlttee recently to ask for work on the
waterways in their states have been
told that the rule of nc new appropria-
tions had been laid down and would be
adhered to and that all ,otner items
would he cut down to one-fifth asked, as
the committee intended to keep the to-
tai below S. 10000. The river and har-

DANGER JUST IT,
A Prominent Professor Speaks
About llRe threatening Things
Abroad at This Time of the Hear.

1T is surprising how many people are
suffering today from so-cailed coughs. colds
and Influenza
The remark was made by a very prominent
professor. connected with one of the leading
New York hospitals. Continuing he said:
1t IS not these things that are troubling
people, but it is an advanced form OF our cid
enemy, the grip. People feel out of sorts,
sneeze, have pains in the muscles and bones,
have no appetite. lose all interest in this
world and wonder what is the ma ter. Il is
the grip; nothing else.
NOW, all such symptoms need to have
prompt The attack must be met
and repealed at once. or it is cei tain 10 run
into something serious. i know of hut one
way TO certainly avoid these troubles which
are now so COMMON, and that is, to immediate
~ counteract them by using a good, pure.
strong stimulaut. Nothing of the ordinary
kind, but something pure and scientific. For
this purpose nothing has ever equalled
Duffy's Pure MaltWhiskey, which is acknowl-
edged today by physicians ard scientific peo-
pie TO be the only pure, midicinal malt
whiskey upon the market"
S9 The words of the professor are true, and
they carry d wonderful! meaning TO MANY
men and women who are suffering with the
first symptoms of grip, or else grip in its adj
vanced stages. For all such people we offer
q word OF advice, which is to take the best
means 10 overcome these troubles and do not
permit any dealer to sWerve you from your
purpose 10 have that which has proven itself
by years of use to be the best aud purest
Stimulant in the world.
