national committee. n letter accepting
the Populist nomination for vice pres
ident Of the United States Watson In

The Journal yesterday as follows: My
letter OF acceptance was mailed to Mr..
Butler yesterday" Watson Is In confer
ence today with Chairman Butler and
Committeeman Washburn.
In view of the alarming reports in cir
culation' concerning thee ondi;soa of
the Hon. Thomas y. Watson. The Jour-
nal telegraphed watson's physicians
for an Official statement Ut his patient =
condition. To this n reply was sent
signed by Dr. Harrison. Waison's ply
stefan. stating that Watson was near
~ well. but could not make any
speeches at present.
The proposed conference between the
subcommittee Of the Popuiist national
executive committee. headed Ivy Sen
ator Butler. and Thomas Watson. Pop
ulisi vice presidential nominee. Is cx-
pected to develop a political sensa-
ton. 1t Is generally believed In inside
Populist circles here that the visit Of
the committee will result In a forrna!
request for Watson to withdraw. There
Is grave doubt expressed. however. that
Watson Will promise to withdraw. II
is freely stated that the Chicago Popu-
list manifesto was by no means pleas
ing To the vice presidential candidate.
What the outcome of the committees
visit will be IL altogether guess work:
but there L. n growing impression that
Watson will take more kindly TO a
suggestion Of Withdrawal than h.
would have done at an earlier date In
the campaign.

FUNCTION OF THE SPLEEN.
It Is 8 Kind of Safety Valve to the Blood Circulation.

Circulation.
 The spleen, of old writes Dr. Andrew Wilson in the Illustrated London News, formed an organ which puzzled the classic physiologists. It did rot seem to manufacture any secretion, like the liver or sweet-bread; and they knew, as we do to-day, that removal of the organ is not necessarily attended by much disturbance of the vital func- tions-a fact due to the duties of the missing spleen being laid on the shoul- CTS of other organs, most probably the lymphatic glands. The spleen is un- doubtedly blood gland. Iti is the seat of manufacture of the corpuscles of the blood, red and white, and it no doubt also disposes of the old rolling stock of the blood, dissolving and disintegrat- ing the wornout corpuscles. Addition al evidence regarding the spleen has been supplied by Prof. Schafer, F. R. S., and MT. B. Moore. They have proved that the spleen acts as kind of safety valve to the blood circulation, and it responds at once to all variations in the blood pressure, whether these vari- atlons are from heart or lungs. It is an organ which shows rythnical con fractions, and would appear to be kind of delicate governor. analarous in it's nature to the seif-acting nlechar- isn of that name in the steam engine

For your Protection.-Catarrh "Cures" or

For your Protection.-Catarrh "Cures" or Tonics for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken internally, usually contain either Mercury or Iodide of Potassa, or both, which are injur- ious if too long taken. Catarrh is local, not blood disease, caused by sudden change to cold or damp weather. It starts in the nasal passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat. Cold in the head causes excessive flow of mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re- suits of catarrh will follow; severe pain 1n the head, roaring sound in the ears, bad breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis charge. Theremedy should be quick to allay inflammation and heal the membrane. Ely's Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for these troubles and contains no mercury nor any injurious drug. Price, 50 cents.

BANK CLERK BUNcoED.

Bicycle Stealing.
 A rather claver trick was played on {, bank clerk the other day in Paris. A cyclist, accosted him outside d store md legged him to look after his bi :Scie wliis lie went in to buy some thing. The clerk consented, and the stranger was about to go in when he iesitated and said that as the other vas a stranger to him he thought it ss onld be well if he gave him ten francs IS guarantee of his honesty. The ansuspecting clerk handed him the sum at once, and the stranger, after promising to stand him drink when he returned, left him. After the clerk had waited about half an hour another cyclist came up, and, seizing him by the throat, called him thief Both were arrested. and at the station it was learned that the second cyciist was the real owner of the machine, which had been stolen from him a few moments before it had been intrusted to the clerk

THE TURKISH kAiK.
1t More Closely Resembles the Gondela
 Than Any Other Craft.


 Crawford, the author, to whose skill ful pen Constantinople is indebted for one of the most charming volumes ever issued in its praise, has word to say about the Turkish boatmen and their vehicle, the kaik.
 'Constantinople owes much" writes he, ito the matchless beauty of the three waters which run together be- heath it's walls, and much of their repu- tation again has become worldwide by the kaik. It is disputed and dis putable whether the Turks copied the Venetian gondola or whether the Vene- t:ans initiated the Turkish kaik, but the resemblance between them is so strong as to make it certain that thcv have a. common origin. Take from the dongola the 'felse', or hood, and the rostrated stem, and the remainder is practically the kaik. Itis of all craft of its size the swiftest, the most easy to handle and the most comfortable, and the Turks generally are admitted to be the best oarsTnen in Europe.
 Indeed, they have need to be, for both the Bosphorous and the Golden Horn are crowded with craft of every kind, and made dangerous by the swiftest of currents. The distances, too, are very great, and such as DO or dinary oarsman would undertake for pleasure or for the sake of exercise. It is no joke to pull 15 or 16 miles against a. stream which in some places runs four or five knots an hour"
