- There is considerable speculation
as to who is to compose President
elect McKinley's cabinet, and quite a
number of names have been suggest
ed. Mark Hanna has been mentioned
in connection with the Office of secre-
tary of state; but he says positively
that he will not accept any office
within the gift of the president. John
Sherman and Benjamin Harrison are
now most prominently spoken of for
first place in the cabinet. Henry c.
Payne of Wisconsin, is said to be GER
tainly slated for cabinet position.

- The London correspondent of the
New York Journal, claims to have in
formation to the effect that the United
States and England had reached an
agreement whereby there is to be an
end to the Cuban rebellion, and that
Cuba is to come under the protection
of the United States. The correspon-
dent goes further, and says that there
is also practical agreement whereby
a court of arbitration is to be estab-
lished wherein all disputes growing
out of misunderstanding as to American
territory are to be settled.

Lemonade from Ants.

A favorite dish among the Northern
Indians is blood mixed with the half-di-
gested food found in deer's stomach
The mixing is actually done in the
paunch of the animal, which is permitted
to hang with it's contents in the heat and
smoke of fire for several days. Thus
the whole mass is brought to a state of
fermentation. Most of the fat in It is
first chewcd in order to prevent Jumps,
but no person with bad teeth is per
mitted to do the chewing. The Snake
Indians eat ants, which are gathered
from the anthills by suuaws Uncover
ing hill to a certain depth, the women
scoop up the insects in their hands and
put them into a bag; When they have
got enough, they wash them in a stream.
SO as to get rid of all dirt and debris.
The ants are then placed on fat stone,
crushed into mass and rolled like pas
try. Of this substance soup is made.
The department of agriculture has
learned that an excellent imitation of
lemonade may be made of the LIQUID
strained from mashed ants. The bodies
of ants contain much formic acid. which
is very close chemically to the critic acid
that gives lemon juice it's flavor,

The library of the interior department
has a daily visitor, a graceful, gray
gowned little thing, who comes in every
morning and remains for several hours,
much to the delight of the clerks EN-
ployed there, with whom she is great
favorite. This little gray lady makes
no pretense of reading, but sits quietly
and unobtrusively among the dusty vol
umes, tfuttering about now and then in a
gentle way, neither demanding nor ex-
pecting any attention either from the
librarians or visitors. who never tire. Of

made was too exasperatingly slow for

afterward easily cut out and in q very

A MENACE TO CYCLERS,
They Take the InsiGlious Kola Pills
Ward OF Fatigue,

They Take the Insidious Kola Pills to
Ward OF Fatigue.
Hundreds of cyclists have become
kolu 'fiends' during the past year and
more are taking to it every day." was
the startling statement made by Il drug
gist yesterday while speaking of the
properties of the drug and of the surpris-
ing increase in it's use among the deyo-
tees of the wheel, says the San Francis
co Call.
''rhe kola pills used by those who
have become addicted to it's use ure
manufactured in this country from the
seeds of the kola plant that are import
ed from Brazil and the West Indies.
THE kola seeds originally came from
properties became known they were
planted iii the tropical countries of Ainer-
lea. They are about the size Of d chest-
nut, brown and in their natural state
rather bitter. The main prbperty of the
kola nut is the remarkable manner in
which it wards off fatigue in those who
use it; ..;.: =: . ,
sf f t59 s of the asvStsS rfndfi him
and the. action OH the stomach is such
that he has little Or no craving for food,
without It: The Strength of t as a
stimulant may be Judged from the fact
that it contains two or three times as
much caffein as coffee.
"Ihese very properties make it dan
gerous to use unless the person who takes
it is thoroughly acquainted with it's
strength and his OWN physical character
iStics.
"The first effect is almost iniuercepti-
ble but within twelve hours the action
of the heart is greatly stimulated and the
user feels much the same as after in
dulging in Intoxicating liquors. This con-
dition lasts for several hours, sometimes
for nearly an entire day, and then the
natural reaction follows, though not SO
abruptly as in the case of other stimu-
lantS.
Continued use is where the main dam
ger lies and almost invariably the user
falls Il victim to palpitation Of the heart
and kindred evils. With cyclists the use
of kola overcomes habit that is really
dangerous.
when starting on long runs it IL such
an easy matter to take u pill and avoid
| the fatigue of the ride that many never
think of starting without the dose, and
not few take it every day. Nearly 60
600 bottles were sold in this city iiurinr
last year, while in San Jose about 28.7
600 bottles were disposed of. 1 have
nearly 100 customers for kola among the
whee1men.''
Not a few cases have occurred where
the use OF kola has been attended with
disastrous results. During the last Olym4
pic cyclers' road race two or three mem
bers fortified themselves before the Start
with strong doses of the drug and in one
instance the rider fell in a dead faint
from the excessive action of the heart
on reaching the finish
