Should stop and consider the dangers
whi.h threaten them because OF their
weakness, languor and lack OF ambition.
Thousands Of women find their strength
unequal to the demands Of duty. And
yet there is no escape from the lncessant
round of care and toll. They must have
strength. How shall 1t be giyeni By
building up their systems through puri-
fed, enriched end vitalized blood,
Hoods sarsaparilla will give them
strength because it will make their blood
pure and enable 1t to feed the nerves upon
proper nourishment. 1t will create an
appetite, tone the stomach and invigorate
every organ. 1t is what tired women need.

BEES ON A COFFIN.

A strange incident happened at a
funeral near Parsons, Kan, the other
day. A little son of Samuel Carson, re-
siding southwest of the city, died and
was buried in the neighborhood GENE
terry. There being no hearSe the re-
mains were placed in a spring wagon
and conveyed to the cemetery. On the
way to the grave a swarm of bees
gathered on the lid of the coffin and
there remained. When the cemetery
was reached all efforts to drive the
bees from the coffin We're without
avail, and the pallbearers were forced
to take charge of the coffin with the
bees swarming about them, and before
the remains were deposited in the
grave every pallbearar suffered, being
Stung i'm more than one place ON the
face and hands. The bees chung so
tenaciously to the coffin that many of
them were buried with the body Of the
dead boy.
The dead boy was very fond of bees,
and whether the bees were thus show
ing their grief over the loss of their
young friends or what the significance
of such an act Oh the part Of the bees
was, is a mystery yet unsolved.-Kan-
sas City Times.

limited coinage; naturalization OF
public monopoIies; denCunc the pro
cess in the DebS case as Subversive of

A SLAVE WITH A HERO'S HEART
Helpless White Lady Maintained by
His Monthly Checks.

A wealthy slave owner of the cotton
belt entered the southern army, fought
bravely and brilliantly, and died in one
! Of the closing battles Of the war. His
widow was left pelniIess, with large
plantations incumbered with mort
cages, and hundred or more enamel
pated negroes who had ceased to be
her property. Her business affairs
were miSmanaged by agents and law
yerS, and she lost one plantation after
another. Her health failed, and in her
old age she became wholly dependent
upon one of her former slaves. This
negro was grateful to her for having
given him a start after the war. Learn
ing from experience that she could not
manage her plantations successfully,
she had rewarded the fidelity of a
small group of ema1cipared slaves by
deciding over to them outright small
farms. This negro received in this
way a farm OF tWenty7SiX acres WIon a
cabin. He prOSpered from the outset.
He made a living out of his ground
and saved every year a little money.
In the course Of a few years he bought
another farm and doubled his re-
sources. Other purchases followed un-
til he was a truck farmer with ccnsid-
cradle wealth. He did not forget his
old plantation mistress in his prosper
ity. When she had lost all her prop
erty and there was no other friend to
take care of her in her old age this
negro rescued her from restitution.
He became her most faithful friend.
Both are still living. On the first day
of every month the negro farmer
draws a check for 500 and sends it to
the aged lady whose slave he was in
his boyhood. AT first she was unwiII-
ing to become his kensioner, but he
pressed help upon her with tears in his
eyes, telling her that he would never
have got on in the world if she had
not generously aided him by giving
him the first farm. His bounty is now
her only resource.-Philadelp
Ledger.

SETTLERS TO SUFFER.
UNCLE SAM TO oUNISH THOSE
WHO SHOT INDIANS.
A Painful Surprise Said to Be in
Store for White Murderers
in the West.

Market Lake, Id, July 30-It is re-
ported that there is a surprise in store
for the settlers of Jackson's Hole,
most of whom believe the troops are
only going to that section to protect
the settlers from the Indians. It is
stated that indictments will be sworn
out against every one Of the settlers
who was conneced with the killing
of the Indians who tried to escape
while under arrest This is in line
with the recommendation made by
Indian Agent Teter in his official re-
port of the original trouble. The set
tiers will be put on trial for taking
the Indians lives and in this way the
mOoted question of authority in Jack
sons Hole will eventually reach a le-
gal settlement. It is said to be the in
tention of the war department to pre-
vent any blood being shed by either
side if possible, and endeavor to get
the Indians to return quietly to their
reservations.

FASTEST AFLOAT.
America Now Has the Speediest of
All War Ships.

New York. Aug. 3.-The United
States cruiser Columbia has complet-
ed her speed run across the Atlantic
from Southampton to New York,
and has demonstrated that size is
the fastest war ship in the world.
Her time from the Needles, on the
Isle of Wight, is days, % hours and
70 minutes. The distance covered
vas 800 knots, and the Columbia
average time is therefore 1871 knots
an hour. Her runs each day were
respectively 405 knots, 400, 473, 45S,
455, 45S, 405. The best record for the
run from Southampton to New York
was made by the New York, now of
the American line-6 days, 4 hours
and II minutes.
Washington, Aug. 3.-Mr. NcAdoO
said that there was no longer any
doubt about the speed of the Column
bia, and that she could no doubt
overtake any vessel afioat or a squirt.
That is, if vessel was sighted in
the morning, the Columbia could come
up with her before night.

ARCHITECT VS.. BUILDER.

The late Mr.. Alexander, the architect
Of R0ches ter bridge was under cross
examination in a special jury case at
Maidstone by Sergeant Garrow, who
wished to detract from the weight of
his testimony, and who, after asking
MIN what was his name, proceeded
thus: ''YCu are a builder, l believer
''No, sir, am not builder, AIN an
architect" "Ah. we'll; architect or
builder, builder or architect, they are
much the same, / suppose?" Il beg
your pardon, sir, 1 can not admit that;
l consider them to be totally diff erent."
"Oh, indeed; perhaps you will state
wherein this great difference con-
Sists?" AN architect, sir, prepares the
plans, cOnceiveS the design, draws out
the Specification-in short, supplies the
mind; the builder IS merely the brick
layer or the carpenter-the builder, in
fact, is the machine: the architect the
power that puts the machine together
and sets it going ''Oh, very well,
Mr.. Architect, that Will do; and now,
after your very ingenious distinction
without a difference, perhaps you can
inform the court who was the architect
of the Tower of, Babel?" 1.-THE Tower

AN ISLAND BURNS.
ONE HUNDRED PERSONS FAY
HAVE PERI.nED.
Appalling Reports of a Fire on
Beaver Island-Fo Forest Fires Raging
in Wisconsin.

Marinette, Wis, Aug. 3.-The prob
ability is that a hundred residents of
Beaver island, located in Green Bay
at the entrance Of the Straits of Mack
inaW have been burned to death i'll the
forest fires Whichhave GeSOlated the en-
tire island the last few days. Wednes-
day night the island was enveloped in
flames which could be seen by passing
vessels Tor many miles out into the
lake. The island is so miles from the
main land and it is not believed that
aid could be secured in time to save
life and property.
Pestigo, Wis, Aug. 3.-Forest fires
have again made their appearance in
Marinette county. AT present they are
confined to territory lying between
Ellis junction aud Marinette, but fears
are entertained of more widely spread
calamity, as vegetation is dry as
finder.

Pittsburg, Aug. 3.-The biggest vic
tory ever made by organized labor
was won yesterday in Pittsburg by
the miners. Almost every demand
was granted and the opera tors gave
written guarantee for their fulfill
ment of the contract. Papers were
signed last night which increases the
wages of 100000 miners in Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois.
The terms of the agreement are that
the present rate of wages shall con-
tinue in force until October 1, when
every operator in the Pittsburg dis
trict will pay 50 cent rate with a
differential of cents in favor of
operators who do not have company
stores. The agreement further pro-
vides for another advance January 1.
1t is understood that the rate then
will be made 70 cents. Above all w.
II. Dermitt, who has whipped the
miners at every turn heretofore, has
been brought over and will pay the
GA cent rate as he does not have COM
pany stores.
The effect of this settlement is to
advance the mining rate in Ohio and
Indiana from 81 to 60 cents. 1t also
helps the rate in Illinois and brings
the strike there to an end. 1t also
changes the end of the scale year
from April 80 to January /. This is
the first time a differential has ever
been granted against company stores
and it is expected that it will result
in having all of them abolished. The
evidence Of this came yesterday when
w. 2. Rend, of Chicago, offered to
abolish his company store at Reisig,
Pa, and agreed to loan the miners
money enough to operate it on CO.
operative basis. AS another result
of the compromise the operators pro-
pose to form new association on
different lines from the old one and
every operator in the district will be
included in its membership.
Ishpeming, Mich, Aug 3.-The
Ishpeming and Negaunee strikers
held a big demOnstra ton yesterday.
Almost 5000 men were in the line of
march. Some of the speakers yester-
day made an effort to induce the men
to visit the mines and ascertain what
concession the companies were pre-
pared to make, but the matter was
voted down.
Iron Mountain, Mich, Aug. 3.-The
miners employed at the Dunn mine,
in the Crystal Falls district struck
yesterday for an advance in their
wages to the same scale as is paid
here and all work is at a standstil.

MRS. WALKERS PLIGHT.
OUT OF MADAGASCAR BUT
STILL IN TROUBLE
Stranded and Helpless Americans on
the Other Side of the Globe
Uncle Sam Can't Pay.

Washington, Aug. 2.-All members
of the Waller family are at last out
of Madagascar, but their misfortunes
continue, and Mrs. Waller, wife of
the harrassed eX-consul, is now with
her children helpless and stranded on
an island at the other side of the
globe. A letter received by Paul
Bray, Walters sOn-in-law, and a dis
patch received by the state depart
ment from S. II. Campbell, at Island
Mauritius, both contain the nOtifca-
ton of the arrival of Mrs. Waller and
her four children at Port Louis, Maui
ritiuS. The letter said that the mother
and children were well, but Mrs. Wal
Ter is suffering intense mental dis
treSS owing to her husbands misfOr-
tunes and the hardships she and her
children had to undergo. She did
not know how they were going to
reach the United States, being with
out money. Hearing of the appear
ance Of the United States cruiser Cas-
tine in Madagascar waters, mother
