HAVE YOU NOTICED
The Discordant Chorus of Coughs which
Interrupt the Play or the Sermon?

The Discordant Chorus of Coughs which
interrupt the Play or the Sermon
OF course you have noticed how, IN q theatel
or church on q winter night, a cough seems
to be contagious Somebody begins, and In
minute there is perfect chorus of hacking
and barking.
''Well," you may say, Everybody, almost,
has cough at this time of the year"
True enough, and the sad part OF it is that
there is no need OF it. Coughs are but signs OF
a general weakness, and when that is cured the
cough is disposed of. Cold air has driven the
blood from the surface to the interior of the
body. The delicate membrane OF the throat is
congested, then infamed. The irritation causes
the cough. When the circulation of the blood
is once more equalized the cough goes, pro-
vided. of course, that the patient takes reason
able care not to expose himself afresh. Plain.
is it not?
What shall produce this effect? gentle but
thorough stimulant, says the best medical
authority. All the requirements OF the situa-
ton are met by Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey.
IT is a tonic of the first order, particularly
valuable in giving vitality to bodies exhausted
nv work or disease Food alone makes flesh,
but what is food without an appetite? DuHys
Pure Malt Whiskey is famous appetizer. 1t
has the approval of the most advanced physi-
clans.

PEOPLE TALKED ABOUT.

William Randall Cremer, member of the
British Parliament, who has been in Washing
ton in the interests of his measure to settle all
disputes between Great Britain and the United
States by arbitration, has been frequent
visitor on the floors both of the House and Sem
ate. This is a courtesy not extended under the
rules of Congress- but simply by general con-
contrast to the practice of the English Parlia-
ment, to the floor of whcih members of the
American Congress are not admitted either
under the operation of rule or the stress of
amity.
Mark Twain's hands were photographed re-
Gently and copies sent to each of four experts
in palmistry. One discovered "a strain of
Southern blood dating back 240 years." OF
the four only one discovered any sense of
humor. A graphologist declares him to be
'lacking in decision, inconstant, illogical, in
sincere, absolutely devoid of feeling, merely
specifically cultivated, self-conscious and
wanting in moral rectitude."
George Augustussala in his autobiography has
a quiet hit at Rudyard Kipling that is all the
more effective because the latter's name is not
mentioned. Every reader of Kipling remem-
bers at the opening of ''The Man Who Was" his
epigram that the Russian is charming until he
tucks in his shirt. Sala tells when how and
why Bismarck said it, giving date anterior
to the publication of any of Kipling's stories.
The richest man in Congress at present is
Representative Sorg of Ohio. He is said to be
worth about $15, ,OOO, 900, and has an income of
fully 81 100000 year. Nearly all of it comes
out of his plug tobacco factory at Middletown.
DR.. Bertillon, the inventor of the anthropo-
metrical system, asserts he has discovered
E u

pulse, which are said to have in everybody
different and characteristic effect on hand
writing.
Lord Rosehery shows, according to his init
mates, no desire to desert his post, but even his
own followers are expecting an early dissolu-
ton of Parliament, and candidates are busily
engagedin working up the various constituent
cies.

AROUND THE CORRIDORS.

George t. Parsons, who spent several months
In the Yukon River district, was at the New
Western yesterday. He says that February and
March are the two most favorable months to
start for that section, because the snow in the
passes is dry and hard, and affords much easier
travel than in the spring when the SHOWS are
melting and the passes are filled with slush.
"The snowfall in the Upper Yukon said he,
sis not heavy, but almost incessant, and resem-
bles heavy frost, while the air is filed with
fiaky particles of the CONCEALED element. The
summer days are often intensely hot in the
canyons and along the river bottoms. Very few
miners ever ascend the Yukon from its mouth
as the distance is too great and the current so
strong that 1t consumes many months in the pas
sage. AT present there are but one or two small
steamers plying on the lower river, and after
the rapids are reached the journey must be
continued in canoes. Those who go in the sum-
mer find no more obstacles to overcome than
in an ordinary mountain and river journey,
but they arrive so late in the season that they
are unable to do any work besides building
ter lasts nine months, and good supply of pro-
visions is consequently necessary"
fWhile in the southern part of the State few
days ago visited San Felipe Canyon, where a
geyser put In an appearance some weeks ago
ana mas been SpOutlng ever Slnce, SAID ID. z.
Strouse, cattleman of Reno, at the Grand yes
terday. "The walls of the canyon rise to q
height of about 1000 feet and the bottom is
filed with sand, which fails to absorb all the
water which flows from the mouth of the gey-
ser. The water is hot as it comes from the OPEN
ing and isstrongly impregnated with sulphur
so much so, in fact, that the herds of cattle re-
fuse to drink it and it also has no effect in slim
ulating vegetation. The geyser does not show
the marked pulsations which are reported as
having characterized it when 1t first made it's
appearance, but it flows more steadily and
emits a much larger volume of water. The
stream which comes from it flows down the
canyon for distance of over two miles before
1t finally disappears in the sand"
T.J. Haney of Kansas City was at the Occi-
dental yesterday. He is here in the interest of
relative of his who has been imprisoned by
the Mexican authorities for violating the bor-
der regulations regarding taking stock over the
line. His nephew, young man named Moore,
was driving some stock from the southern por-
ton of the State to Arizona to winter, and
through ignorance or misapprehension of the
law they were led to violate the regulations
and were consequently imprisoned.
H. E. Marion who is largely interested in
land in the neighborhood of Seattle, was at the
Lick yesterday. He says that party of cap
italists from st. Louis recently visited Wash
ington for the purpose eofinaugurating of q scheme
for building ship canal connecting Elliott
Bay with Lake Washington, fresh-water body
of considerable size, located several miles in
land, and of which it is proposed TO make a fine
harbor.

SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

The San Francisco dailies are protesting Wig
orously against the appointing by the Legisla-
ture of committee to investigate the condi-
ton of the municipal government of that city
And they are right in doing so. There is no
reason why the State should be made to pay
for investigating the metropolis affairs. That
city has Grand Jury, competent Judges re-
formers and live newspapers, and If they cannot
down the corrupt element there the State had
better not try it, as the case is hopeless. Tres
Pinos Tribune.
It has been well and truly said that one can
always judge town and its people by scam
