The OLYMPIC Games.

Messrs. l. S. Johnson & Co., % Custom House
St., Boston, the prop rietors of Johnson's
Anodyne Liniment, have published a souve-
mir of the Olympic games at ancient Athens.
This booklet is elegantly illustrated with
half-tone plates of all the con- petitors from
Boston. The descriptive story tells OF the
first games, and which supposed to have
begun 776 G, and continued until 1874 D. 1t
will thus be seen that the revival is over 1900
years later. The story is full of interest, and
prepared by James Shields Murphy, edi-
tor of the Golfer, who in line of continuous
service as sporting writer is the longest in
the service of any in this country. In the
booklet are biogra phical sketches of the
American athletes, with what they have done
previous to the Olympic games, and what
they won at Athens, making the book worth
keeping for reference. Any one interested in
athletics of any kind can find much to inter
est them this booklet which will be sent
to any address free, by the publishers.

LIJMBERME EN- FOR TARIFF.
Southern Representatives in tn
swim and Want All That Is
In Sight.

Cincinnati, Dec. 15.--Pursuant to a
call issued by j. E. Febaugh, publisher
of the Lumberman, and w. B. Judson,
publisher of the Lumberman, $50 dele
gates representing twenty-seven states
assembled here to-day. Judson and Fe-
baugh made elaborate addresses explain.
ing the purpose of the convention and
the present condition of the lumber busi-
ness. They appealed to ths delegates
lrsn the southern states for co-opera-
tion in securing a tariff. Most of the
southern delegates have been free-traders
but in responding to the addresses these
delegates insisted that, If there is to be
protective tariff, lumber should not be
Disseminated against, and said they
would do all they could to secure tariff
on lumber. A temporary organization
was perfected with j. 4. Febaugh as
chairman. He made vigorous speech
against the tariff of 1894 as discriminat-
ing against lumber and urged the con-
venfion to take action to secure just
treatment of the lumber interests In any
tariff bill to be enacted by the coming

The A. 4 r. Foreclosure.

In connection with the above, Hon. N.
B. Field, who arrived from Albuquerque
last night, and who Is just in return from
California, says:
"The Atlantic L. Pacific case in Cali
fornia is rapidly coming to close. Last
Monday in Los Angeles, Judge Ross over
ruled all exceptions to Mr.. 0. N. Marron's
report and ordered decree TO be pre-
pared and submitted for his signature on
the 2lst inst. The decree to follow the
decree of the court in New Mexico as
the court of primary jurisdiction, and
Mr.. Marion is appointed to make the sale

'In the matter of the claim of the
Southern Pacific Railroad company
against the receiver of the Atlantic & Pa
citic for taxes, which was heard before
Judge H. L. Warren, at San Francisco,
on the 10th of November and argued at
Albuquerque on the Goth of November,
Judge Warren has filed his report recon-
mending that the regular receiver be in
structed not to pay the claims and that
the intervening petition of the Southern
Pacific Railroad company be dismissed,
"If the action of Judge Warren," con-
tinued Mr.. Field, "be sustained by the
court it will probably result in the re-
covery by Mr.. Smith, the present receiv-

ceivers to the Southern Pacific company

IRRIGATION CONGRESS.
lmpOrtaut ORGANIZATION OF Practical
Men Convened at Phoenix This
LargeAttendance.

Phoenix, A. T., Dec. 15,-At to.day's
session of the National Irrigation con-
gress, E. R. Moses, chairman of the ex-
ecutive committee, submitted his annual
report, which says: Surprising as it
may seem to you of the west, the east and
south are waking mp to the necessity OF
irrigation even in their own sections, and
in many places are xperlmenting In lrrl'
CATION for the purpose of making surer
and larger crops which they know will
ALWAYS increase the value Of their lands.
Not the least interested in this work are
the water and land companies, emigrant
and provident associations. The latter
working in conjunction with the former
will one day solve the great national
q uestion, "What shall we do With the un'
employed" which is answered by the
utilization of the vast waste lands by the
coloni cation of these people.
"Oongress should do something besides
making speeches. 1t should legislate
pass bill Or bills embodying the issues II
has for years been presenting to the peo'
ple. The bill or bills creating national
irrigation commission and a national
forestry commission should be passed
The duty of the irrigation commission
should be to look after irrigation in every
state and territory, take charge OF al
Irrigation works and property and report
directly to congress or to the interior OF
agricultural departments the progress Of
irrigation and make such suggestions al
would be for it's further advancement
until every irrigable arid acre is subduec
and the unemployed and the homelest
have found peace and plenty upon them
The necessity for forestry commission
was as important to this country as
forest, for without the former We should
soon have none of the latter. Sooner Of
later We would not feel the loss in dollar'
and cents 80 much as We would in the ust
| in conserving the waters for irrigation.
The committee recommened actior
upon the following subjects In the form
OF bills for presentation at Washington
Arid land policy, interstate streams, in
ternational streams, reclamation Of arit
and semi.srid lands, pastoral lands, irri
CATION surveys and appropriations fol

The net results of the experiments OF

as equivalent to the condemnation OF
nearly the whole amount now stacked up
at the Newport News ship-building yards
Six of the twelve test pieces, which
should have been folded back on the ves-
sells without breaking, either broke of
short as readily as cast iron or tore apar'
with less brittleness, but none the less
certain evidence of failing to meet the

Free TO EVERY NAN.
THE METHOD OF A GREAT TREAT
MENT FOR WEAKNESS OF MEN.
WHICH CURED HIM AFTER EVERY
THING ELSE FAILED.

Painful diseases are bad enough. but
when man is slowly wasting away with
nervous weakness. the mental forebod-
ingS are ten times worse than the most
severe pain. There is no let up 10 the
mental sufferings day or night. Sleep
is almost impossible and under such a
strain men are scarcely responsible for
what they do. For years the writer
rolled and tossed on the troubled sea
tan whether he had not better take a
dose of poison and thus end all, his trou-
bles. But providential inspiration came
TO his aid in the shape of a combination
OF medicines that not only completely
restored the general health, but enlarged
his weak, emaciated parts TO natural
size and vigor, and he now declares that
2ny man who viii take the trouble 20
send his name and address may have the
method of this wonderful treatment free.
Now when | say free l mean absolutely
ened man to get the benefit of my expe-
rience-
L am not a philanthrooist. nor do 1
pose as an enthusiast, but there are
thousands of men suffering the mental
tortures of weakened manhood who
would be cured at once could they but
get such a remedy as the one that cured
me. Do not try to study out how l can
afford to pay the few postage stamps
send for it, and learn that there are a
few things on earth that although they
cost nothing to get they are worth a
fortune to some men and mean a life
time of happiness to most of US. Write
to Thomas Slater. Box 1925, Kalamazoo.
