Mr.. Williams Gives Up His
Post at Havana.
The Long RumOred Event Has
at Last Materialized.
Fitzhugh Lee Named by the Presi-
dent as His Successor.

WASHINGTON, April 15--The resigna-
tion of Ramon o. Williams from his office
as consul general OF the United States at
Havana, which was made public through
the nomination OF Gen. Filzhugh Leeas,
his successor, caused no surprise here.
For months past rumors have been con-
nected with Mr.. Williams name, ,and 1t has
been specially stated that during that
time he had resigned. The denials that
were obtained from official sources were
always so phrased as TO carry out the
statement that Mr.. Williams was at the
time of denial still in Office and the con-
viction obtained based not only these
deniaIs but on certain expressions let fall
by Mr.. Williams during his visit to Wash
ingtou last year that his resignation has
been at the dispoal of the President Tor
some time past.
1t Is known that Mr.. Williams has been
desirous to surrender his Office, having
accumulated private fortune, being In
terested In pi ivate business ventures that
require much of his attention and more
than all else, being thoroughly tired oil
the official duties of his plane. Touching
the manner in which he has discharged
these duties the officials OF the State oe-
partment are full of praise and Mr.. Will
the reputation of being the model con-
suIar officer OF the United States. lie
has been ~ years in this service, being
appointed In 1874 vice consul general at
Havana, and promoted to be consul gen.
eresl years later. He was born IN the
District of Columbia and was appointed
from New York.

the wonderful discovery of Prof Dix Crosby, of Dartmouth
College. No wonder that like Eugene Low pronounce
Puritana GAS great discovery electricity"
Mt. Vernon Place, Charleston,
To the public
We know the misery that is caused by
stomach troubles, for both my wife and
have been so afflicted Wi tn suffering of
the worst sort that there seemed no longer
any hope of health comfort. Tn
fact, my wife's life despaired of, and
was about to give up active employment.
Mrs. Gale was. for number Of years
victim of dyspepsia, which grew more and
more severe until she completely pros
trated. She was sent into the country by
her doctor. but when she returned she could
not stand up without support. For long
time she was unable to eat solid food, and
a diet of prepared mi TX she was un-
able to- gain strength or escape suffering.
We sought the best advice we, could obtain,
but the result was failure in every case.
When we first tried Puritana were
without other hope and as far my wife
was concerned. did not believe that she
would ever recover. After few weeks
there was marked change and from that
time her Improvement grew more rapid
from day to day. The stomach trouble dis
appeared and her whole system was
brought into healthy condi tion.
Mrs. Gale belongs to the Daughters Of
Rebekah and other Charlestown soci cieties,
and when she could attend the meetings,
and also eat her share Of the dainties,
it was great surprise to the ladies who
had known of her inf trinity. For the first
time in years she found that she could eat
piece Of New England pie, and her
stomach digests any food.
My own suffering has been SO great that
could not engage in any 'exhausting occu-
patton. The effect Of Puri tana in my case
has been only less wonderful than in the
of my wife. L have received greater
benefits from it than from all other medi-
cines and the doctors put together, and
recommend it in the highest terms to my
friends.
We bless the day when heard of
Puritana, for it has given life.

WHEN MOST DEATHS OCCUR.
Old Superstition Upset by the Record Of
$4,000 Cases.

Old superstition Upset by the Record of
10000 Cases.
Has death favorite hour during the
"a in which TO visit hospital and sick
room and gather in its victims?
A general opinion is entertained by
medical practitioners and others en-
gagged in caring for the sick that the
greatest number OF deaths occurring in
individuals afflicted with disease takes
place during the hours Immediately
succeeding midnight and preceding the
dawn. The rule is said to be particu-
larly true in those suffering from chron-
ic exhausting diseases.
Deductions have been made from
these impressions which have served to
regulate the administration of stimu-
lancs in such cases, it being said: IF
six ounces of brandy be needed in "a
hours, four should be administered
from two to six a. m, for then is vital
ity in the human being at its lowest,
and more deaths occur at these hours
than at any other period"
Il accepted this teaching at college
says a medical man, because l had
neither the means nor the time to verify
or disprovc it TO my own satisfaction.
Yet I always doubted the correctness
of the conclusions drawn, and, to settle
the doubt in my mind, since entering on
my duties at the hospital have collect
ed statistics, which l find do not agree
with this generally accepted idea.
..Iy Il mr..
ing the hours from six p. m. to six a. III.
than for corresponding 10 hours of the
day. Again, from two to six p. m. there
were &C more deaths than from two to
six a. m. The total number Of deaths
in the list of acute diseases for the -
hours from six p. IN. to six a. IN. is 169
less than for the corresponding period
during the day.
1.-THE hours from two to six a. m. in
this list show SO cases more than for the
corresponding period in the afternoon,
This in nearly 1000 cases is very slight.
"In the chronic cases the greatest
number of deaths at any one hour was
at four p. m, with two at five p IN.
aud six a. m. closely following. The
greatest in the acute list was at three
II. M, with II a. m. and II p. m. closely
following.
"The lowest number in the acute list
was at midnight, that hour so dreaded
in the sickroom by attendants, and to
which a good deal of superstition at
taches. 1t is noticeable that the num-
Der for this hour is exceedingly low
about half of the average number. In
the chronic cases the lowest number
appears at nine a. m.
From these $4,000 cases, extending
over n period of 10 years, it would APP
pear that death occurs seemingly with
out any particular prediction for any
certain hour, and that the number OF
deaths for each hour is very evenly pro-
portioned, considering the large num-
Der of cases taken and the time COW

search of the faithful old canine, but
returned home after a long and weary
round of inquiry without news of the
dog.
The next day two men were rowing
on the Mississippi river in search of
the odds and ends that float about on
the surface of all busy streams and un-
der the big Merchants bridge that
spans the tide at st, Louis they found
the dead body of dog. 1t was'Rover.
Whether the dog had fallen into the
river by accident, or whether he had
deliberately committed suicide from
sheer grief over the death of his little
master, no one can ever tell. But the
last explanation of Rover's death seems
the most likely one, because, as you
will remember, Rover was an excellent
swimmer,
