perhaps you would not think SO, but
a very large proportion of diseases in
New York comes from carelessness about
catching cold," says DR.. Cyrus Edison.
cit is suoh simple thing and so COM
mon that very few people, unless it is a
case of pneumonia. pay any attention to
cold. There are great MANY cases of
catarrh and consumption which have
their origin in this neglect of the sim
plest precaution Of every day life. The
most sensible advice is, when you have
cold, get rid of it as soon as possible. !"
DR.. Edison does not tell you how to cure
u cold but we will. Take Chamberlain s

aid expectoration, open the seoretions and

kATAHDlN CANNOT "CON."
Top of Her Tower is Lost in the Mud of the
Wallabout.

The new ram Katahdin that was placed
In commission at the Brooklyn navy
yard recently has lost the top of her steel
armored coming tower, and the authori-
ties at the yard are not only trying to To-
cate the huge pisce Of metal, but to learn
as we'll who is to blame for the loss.
The Katahdin lies in the Wallabout,
near the stone deck. On Thursday after
noon gang of workmen In the employ
of Mr.. Bowles' construction department.,
were putting in place the steel armor
plate that forms the top of the coming
tower-that is to say, the top of the tower
in which the pilot stands while the vessel
in under the way. This place is a piece
of Harveyized steel, in shape somewhat
like an inverted saucer. 1t is eight feet
In diameter, six inches thick, and weighs
two tons. To lift. the plate into place.
a lot of ropes were passed around it, and
to these was hooked the tackle of the
floating derrick The derrick lifted the
huge piece Of metal easily enough, but
just when it was suspended in the air
above the deck of the Katahdin the ropes
that lifted it began to give across it's
sharp edges. The men in charge on hear
ing the noise of the breaking fed, and
down came the plate, edge first, on the
deck.
The deck of the Katahdin is as round
as the top of loaf of bread, and SO the
huge round steel saucer rolled off the
deck and sank in the waters of the Wal
labout instantly.
At that the workmen returned and
found that the sharp edge of the tower
top had scratched the deck of the Katahd-
in, but that was the only trace they could
find of it.
The water In the channel where the
plate sank is about 80 feet deep. The au-
thorities believed that they could send a
diver down to locate the plate, and then
put steel hooks around the rim and hoist
the thing up again. They tried to do so.
Mr.. James Cummings put Oh common
Divers suit belonging to the department.,
and when everything was ship-shape slid
off the deck of the Katahdin, where the
missing top had rolled off and followed
the trail, SO to speak, to the bottom of
the channel. But when he got down no
trace of the plate could be find. SO he
came up, after olawing around in the
mud for time, and took rest. Then
he went down and tried again, with no
better results. A third trial was equally
fruitless, and now the authorities are
wondering what has become OF the
49,. IL l. L.
plate weighed two tons and yet was but
six inches thick, and since it had a space
thirty feet high to fall through, the thing
buried itself out of sight, and feeling in
Wallabout N I'D. So the only way to re.
cover it Is to build a Golfer dam or new
style dredge with a divining rod attach
ment to locate the deposit.
In lieu of such expensive means of re-.
covering the lost plate, it is proposed to
order new one from the factory, but
just what will be done in the matter has
not been determined
