q Chicago Girls Experience With an Ocean
Liner From Glasgow.

A Chicago girl was in Scotland. She
had made arrangements at the office of the
>steamer in Glasgow to telegraph her the
hour To be decided upon for the sailing Of
the ship she intended to take. Then she
betook herself I. highland wilds in peace.
She received no telegram. but on the day
set for the sailing of her steamer she ar
rived In Glasgow and after leaving her
baggage at hotel went to the steamers
Office to make inquiries She was told
there that the boat was even then leaving
the wharf at Glasgow, but by taking train
to Greenock she might overtake it at the
port. She rushed back to her hotel, saw
her baggage dashed upon cab, caught the
train for Greenock and got there in time
to see the ocean liner pulling splendidly
out to sea. She beckoned to man with
small tug, declaring that she must catch
the steamer, and in a few minutes more
was steaming madly after the big ship.
The captain stopped the liner at the
frantic gestures of appeal from the mon on
the tug and the Chicago girl was helped
over the side of the steamer, while the CAP
tain stood by and made few remarks A
little later the new passenger found herself
locked into her stateroom by the steward
ess She rang her bell, got her key from
the outside from the steward, who answer
cd the bell, and when the ships doctor
came down to see the passenger believed to
be insane he found the door locked on the
inside. Then the captain came, and at his
thunderous order the Chicago girl unlock
ed her stateroom door. The captains de-
meanor was not childlike nor bland, and
his language was suited to sailors in a
storm. But the Chicago girl stood her
ground. She explained through the blue
streaked air about the captain that she was
no more insane than he was, and that she
had perfect right, in her opinion, to stop
an ocean liner.
She had engaged her passage on that
particular steamer This was her own
stateroom. The company had broken
faith with her in not notifying her of the
hour of sailing, according to the express
agreement of the company's servants in
the Glasgow office. But she had not bro
ken faith with the company. She had agreed
to sail on that particular ship. She had
paid her passage weeks before. Sho was
now sailing on it, the captain could not
deny that and it had cost her good deal
extra to catch this steamer too. That last
straw broke the back of the captain g
anger, and his stern face melted into a
smile He made friends with the Chicago
an and treated her with distinguished con-
sideration during all of tho voyage to New
York. What she paid the man on the tug
the lady never knew. She declared that
she gave him whatever she had left of
British coin before she began her now his
toric scramble up the side of the ocean
liner. Boston Traveller.

The latest returns show that Navarro
county, Texas, which, by the way, is the
home county of Roger @. Mills, gave
plurality of 1879 for Major Mckinley.
Hitherto the county has thrown heavy
majority against the party of Mckinley.
The returns further show gam of 100 per
cent. throughout the state for Mckinley,
over any vote previously cast for his party.
1t does not require any great stretch of the
Imagination TO hit upon probable cause
for this change in sentiment in Mr.. Mills
state. At the time of the passage of the
Wilson-G German bill, long petitions came
from Texas against free wool. But free
wool went through just the same.

A RECENT INTERVIEW
With DR.. Hartman, the Removed Catarh
Specialist,


A newspaper contributor was lately ad-
mitted into the extensive suite of offices
which constitute the headquarters of DR..
Hartman, who treats catarrh patients by
the thousand. Amid the busy swarm of
assistant doctors, clerks, stenegraphers and
book-keepers, DR.. Hartman stopped long
enough to say few words:
"The number of catarrh patients who
visit me is large. but the number who are
entered on my books as regular patients
(but are treated without charge, by cores
pondence), is very much larger. Hundreds
of letters are received and answered free
every day. A yet greater multitude take
my catarrh remedy, Pe-ru-na, and are
cured, of whom never hear. Some of this
latter class write me years after their cure.
l never allow name published except by
the written consent of the patient. We
make no charge at any time. The medicine
only is obtained by each patient at his own
drug store. Those desiring to become
regular patients have only to send address,
duration of disease and treatment previous
ly received, and directions for first months
treatment will be sent at once.
'Over half the people have catarrh in
some form or another. And yet probably
not tenth of the people know that their
disease is catarrh. To distinguish catarrh
of various organs, 1t has been named very
differently. One person has dyspepsia;
another bronchitis; another bright's disease;
another liver complaint another consump-
ton; another female complaint These peo-
pie would be very much surprised to hear
that they are all suffering with chronic
catarrh. But 1t is so, nevertheless. Each
one of these troubles, and great many
| more, are simply catarrh-that is, chronic
inflammation of the mucous lining of which
ever organ Is effected. Any external rem
edy that will cure catarrh in on location
will cure 1t In any other location. This is
why Pe-ru-na has become so Justly famous
| In the cure of catarrhal diseases. 1t cures
catarrh wherever located. Its cures re-
main. Pe-ru-na does not palliate; it cures I"

reading matter and instructive illustrations.

not accept incurable cases. If upon ex-
animation, you are found incurable, you
will be kindly and frankly told so, also
advised against spending money for USE
less treatment.

large salary. and was possibly one of
the best paid actors In the profession.
Besides, he was man of rather slim

chlldless. So there has been some sur
prise expressed ut the fact that his es-
tate IL said to be under 100000, of
which u part comes from his life IN

question about which II Is difficult to

There are some others, but they are

a highly profitable actor outside of
