To Be Thin or Fat.

Do you want to be thin? Then eat a
great deal of chopped meat without any
potato in it Drink little fluid of any
kind except strong tea. Exercise a great
deal without drinking, and do not eat
bread and butter or candy. Lemonade,
acid drinks of all kinds and saline min
eraI waters are excellent Drink glass
of clear water before breakfast.
Do you want to be fat? Then eat vege-
tables and sleep after each meal. Go TO
bed at O'Clock and lie in bed half an
hour after you wake up. Laugh great
deal. Drink water by the pint or the
quart if you can. Drink weak and sweet
tea, with plenty of milk in it. Take cod
liver and sweet oils as much as you can.
Put plenty of butter on your bread and
do not be afraid of ales, layers and sweet
wines. This will guarantee gain of
five pounds month, and, if you can
sleep a great deal, of double that amount.

POPULAR APPROVAL

the visitors arc familiar with the tragic

most az much Of a sensation just % years

Custer and his comrades on the Little Big
Horn in 1875.
In December, 1885, Osceola, the Semi
noIe chief whose wife had been seized as
slave while on a visit to Fort King, Fla,
was in a very threatening mood, and Ma
ior Francis L. Dade was sent TO re-e enforce
the fort. Osceola had been imprisoned by
General Thompson, the Indian agent at
the fort, because he had the audacity 20 OBJ

THE LANDING.
British Forces Take Possession of the
Town.

British Forces Take Possession of the
WASHINGTON, April 27.-Nicaragua
has refused to accept the British ulti-
matum. This information was COM
municated to the British admiral,
Stephenson, at Corinto at a late hour
last night, the three days given Nicara-
qua to make reply having expired at
midnig ht Friday. The British forces
took possession of the town, and the
garrison at Corinto, which consisted
of small force of 200 men, has with
drawn to the interior, leaving the
British in peaceful possession of the
town. No opposition was made to their
landing, but it is stated by those fam
iliar with the Nicaraguan programme
that any attempt of the British forces
to pedetrate the interior or leave the
environments of Corinto will be re-
sisted.
Great excitement is reported to exist
in Nicaragua. It's now said positively
that Nicaragua will not pay the indem-
nifty demanded by England. Should
this determination be adhered to, the
occupation of Corinto by the British
may be indefinite. The ultimatum
provided not only the payment of in
demnity. but provides further that a
joint commission shall be established
to fix the damage which resulted to
British subjects as the result of their
arrest and expulsion from Nicaragua.
In the British ultimatum it is stipu-
lated the commission to pass on Brit
ish claims shall not contain a
representative of any American re-
public. England, it is asserted, says
the stipulation applies only to the
smaller republics. Nicaragua, it is
claimed, will not consent to submit the
matter to a commission unless repre-
sentative of the United States is placed
thereon.

LONDON, April PA dispatch from
Paris says: The catastrophe occurred
few minutes before half past 5 in the
morning. A stonecutter, who had
commenced work short distance from
the reservoir, saw the front of the wall,
60 feet high and from 100 to $50 yards
long, come down almost instantly. The
water poured down the valley, forming
a bore about 16 feet high. The flood
reached Momsey at 7:05, having trav-
eled Is miles in less than an hour and
three-quarters. The project of Vosgas
estimates the number of victims at III.
The loss of life is probably underestim-
ated, for no news has been received
from the parish of Frizen, through
which the torrent passed. The sound
of the bursting dam was heard several
miles away. The great rush of water
lasted about Is minutes, when 6,000,-
600 cubic meters of water had passed
through the break.
At Bouzey but one house remains
standing on the hill above the reser-
voir, which is now quite empty, and
looks like an immense black hole in the
landscape. The remains of the broken
wall are lying about for distance of
500 yards below the opening. A small
pine woods which stood beneath the
reservoir, has completely disappeared
with the exception of two trees, be-
tween the branches of which quanti-
ty of wreckage remains.
The great reservoir was an exceed
ing curious structure. 1t was COM
posed of three arms which stretched
out like fan between wooded hills.
