AS this institution is entering upon

fair to eclipse the most sdnguine hope,
Of those worthy gentlemen who comprise
the Board OF Directors. and OF those
who have aided materially in bringing
the home to success.
Since the doors were opened on May
18TH last many unfortunates who were
without homes were furnished with shell
ter and food. and in number OF In
stances employment found for them.
None but those who show a desire TO
work are admitted for the home was
not opened TO accommodate the "ilite-
rate traveller" who lives while on the
go" Those for whom work can be oo-
tanned at once are kept busy about the
place keeping 1t in a most clearly state.
There Is also "A broom-factory attached,
and the revenue each month nets a neat
little sum.
Captain T. W. Lindsay we'll known to
the citizens, is superintendent. and the
board could not have better selection
had they searched the State over. While
he impresses each one under his charge
with the fact that they must each per-
form the work assigned TO them, yet he
Is so cOnsiderate and courteous In his
treatment that he makes one feel most
willing TO do that which he can. The
Captain Is a gentleman OF the true
southern type" most hospitable and

That's what people with poor diges-
ton are doing every day.fhey- have
no appetite, or if they do have an ap-
petite and eat what they require 1t
does them no good because the stomach
does not digest it and the fermenting
mass of food becomes a source of dis
ease, of headaches, sleeplessness, Ian
guor and the thousand and one symp
toms resulting from disordered diges-
ton. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
promptly relieve and cure all forms of
Indigestion. They have done it in
thousands of cases and will do it in
yours. The reason is simple. Be
cause they digest the food whether the
stomach works or not. That's the

SUBMARINE NAVY.
Contract for Construction of IL
Holland Torpedo Boat Signed

d
Holland Torpedo Boat Signed.
WASHINGTON, March ga con-
tract was signed today by Secretary
Herbert, with the John P. Holland
torpedo boat company, for the con-
Struction of submarine torpedo
boat for the use of the navy. This con-
tract, which may mark radical de-
parture in naval construction, was
signed only after thorough consider
alton extending through a period of
nearly two years, of the subject of sub
marine boats and after various plans
for such craft had been examined.
The appropriation for submarine
torpedo boat was made over two years
ago. The dimensions of the vessel
contracted for are to be, length, so
feet, diameter, II feet; displace-
ment Gotal when sugmerged), 1882
tons. All parts of the vessel
and the steel to be used in her
construction are to be of domestic
manufacture. She is to be completed
within twelve months from date I'M
der time penalties The contract calls
for a speed of Is knots when the boat
is in light condition, IA knots when in
the dWdSI COilulIlOIl, Will d fltIiliiuill
endurance of II hours at these speeds
and of 8 knots when completely sub
merged with minimum endurance of
six hours. The secretary of the navy
may refuse to accept the boat if it
on trial falls ~ knots an hour below
the speeds named, or accept her at
reduced price. The price to be paid for
the boat is fixed at 100000, to be paid
in five equal installments, but with GER
tain retentions as to a reserve until
final acceptance. 1t is expressly stip-
ulated that the United States shall
have the optional right to acquire the
patent rights for the Holland type boat
the price to be paid for the rights to
be determined by a board of three
naval officers, the option to run until
thirty days after the first session of
congress succeeding acceptance of the
vessel. This provision is to give con-
gress opportunity to enact legislation
for the acquisition of the patent, if
desired.

THE INTERSTATEC COMMERCE
Law Cited in Defense Of the
Governments Action in
Chicago Strike.
TIE NATION IS SUPREME
In Cases Of Riot--Court Re-
serves Decision in the
Case.

WASHINGTON, March 26-The
hearing on the application OF Eugene
V. Debs and others for writ OF
habeas corpus for their release from
IMPRISONMENT was resumed promptly
on the opening of the supreme court
at noon today. Attorney General
Olney made the first argument,
speaking in behalf of the govern
ment in answer to the application.
Mr.. Olney said the single question
before the. supreme court was Wheth-
er the court below had jurisdiction
of the case made by the original Dill.
and proceeded to show that, as he
viewed the matter, it had. He de-
voted but very little time to the dis
cussion of the governments techni-
cal relation to the mails and the
mail bags, or to the provisions OF
the act of 1890, which he character
lied as IAN experimental piece OF
legislation" and passed Immediate
ly to the consideration of the strike
as a violation of interstate COM
merce regulations. The interstate
regulation of congress, comprehends
a great variety of different sub
ject matter. 1t is held, as respects
some of them, that in the absence
of positive legislation thereon by
congress there may be action by a
state. But it has always and uni
VerSally been conceded that the mo-
matter which is part of interstate
commerce, from that moment the
jurisdiction of the
UNITED STATES IS ABSOLUTE,
and excludes all other authority. In
tercourse and transportation be-
tween the stza0s and all the instru-
mentalities of either are admittedly
parts of interstate commerce.
Transportation of passengers and
freight by railroads is, of course, in
Guided. Not only is that so, but it
is also true that interstate railroad
transportation has been taken in es-
pecial charge by congress. Having
power to control it, congress has not
permitted the power to lie dormant,
but has freely and effectively eX-
ercised it. He then enumerated many
of the federal laws bearing on the
question Of interstate traffic, includ-
ing those applying to the mail serv-
ice; those relating to the carrying of
live stock, and those requiring the
use of certain kinds of brakes, etc.
But in this connection, and for
the present purposes" he continued,
lit is more important to note the
provisions of several general stat
utes which cover the whole field of
interstate railroad transportation,
and show most conclusively the pur-
pose OF congress to exclude every
other source and form of regulation.
except its own. Section 5,253 of the
Revised Statutes declares as follows:

VENEZUELA MUST PAY.
Commission Allows Claims OF
Americans.


Americans.
WASHINGTON, March 26-After
months of elaboration the Venezuelan
& claims commission today concluded
sits labors and announced it's decision,
EDbeing a judgment in favor of citizens
5of the United States for SAB, 800, about
ione-third of the amount of the claims.
3Of the total award the Venezuelan
Steam Transportation company, of
New York, receives S141, 500 American
: gold with interest, and Capt. Abram
G. Post, Jacob j. Maurinus and Davis
G.. Sturgis receive each $500 with in
tereSt. The claim of Cornelius J.
Brinkerhoff, master of the San Fran
acisco, was the only one disallowed.
5 The claims date back to 1871, when,
in the course of a revolution in Venez-
fuela, three of the vessels of -the Amer
7ican corporation were seized by the
fVeneZuelanS on either side in the con-
ttroyersy and much damaged by being
fused in war. The ships were finally
recovered, one through the good Office
of the commander of a British war
ship, and the other two by the COM
mander of the United States steamer
Shawmut.
The claim also included items based
on the refusal of the victorious revo-
lutfonary government to allow the
company to exercise the franchise it
held to navigate Venezuelan waters,
and also items for the Imprisonment
Of the masters of the seized vessels.
The principle involved in the judg-
ment rendered today is of great i'm
portance to the countries of Central
and South America which are subject
to revolution. for it amounts to a
declaration that such countries are re-
sponsible for the acts of insurgents
against the rights and properties of
foreigners, even if these acts are be-
yond their control. Senior Andrade,
the Venezuelan representative on the
commission, has given notice that he
will file a dissenting opinion in the

BONDS ARE REQUIRED.
Detained Diamond Cutters VIII BE
Allowed to Land

WASHINGTON, March 26.-Dr. Sen
ner, commissioner of immigration at
New York, in a telegram to Secretary
Carlisle, states that the sixty-one dia-
mond cutters held in New York are
likely to be discharged on a rehearing
OF their cases, and recommends that
an offer of the steamship company to
give bonds in each case that the men
will not become public charges be ac-
cepted also. That the diamond cutters
were able-bodied men and experts in
their line of work was not questioned,
and officials here are surprised that
having failed to convict them of vio-
lating the contract labor law the New
York commissioner should recommend
that they be required to give bonds
that they would not become burdens
on public charity.
