Handle Book of Female Discascs-A Com
pletc Guide for Women.


The month of June is peculiarly the
month of nervous diseases, especially
nervous prOstratiOn and other depressed
states of the nervous system. People
who are at all inclined to be nervous or
| suffer from weak nerves find this month
especially trying. Sultry heat and
electrical disturbances Of the at
mOsphcre are probably the causes
of this. Invalids of all sorts,
more especially females suffering from
some female disorder, Change of Life,
or rapid collaborating, need to be par
ticularly careful during the month of
June
There are scores Of women who are
not actually sick abed, but who are tired
morning, noon and night, never seeming
to he able to get rested. Men are apt to
nervous prostratiOn, from overwOrk,
study or dissipation. All of these pcO-
pie, male and female, find in Pe-ru-na II
nerve tonic exactly suited to the urgency
of the case. Pe-ru-na relieves tired
nerves, soothes overworkcd brains and
strengthens tagging powers. Those
wishing further advice should write DR..
Hartman II letter, explaining full details
of their troubles. and confidential let
ter will be promptly dictated by the doc

ment on Wednesday. The house
agreed to the final conference report on
the postotfice appropriation bill today and,
the senate passed the general deficiency
bill as it came from the house. This
leaves but four of the great supply bills
still in issue-the District of Columbia.
the Indian and naval and the sundry
civil bills. Although neither house has
yet acted on the report the .:onferees
on the naval bill have agreed on report
which it is thought will prove acceptable
to both houses. 1t compromises the
question of the number of battleships by
authorizing three instead of four us the.
bill passed the house. and two as it
passed the senate. The question of the.
minimum cost of armor plate. fixed by
the house at S425 per ton and by the.
senate at $500 per ton, is postponed until.
the next session of congress. In the SUM-
dry civil bill the public building items are
still the bone of contention, and in the.
District of Columbia and the Indian
bills the question of sectarian charity
and sectarian schools respectively are.
the only items in issue. The leaders of
both houses expect an adjustment of
these contrOverted questions in time for
an adjournment on Wednesday.
The fact that the Republicans of the
house have insisted upon taking up a
contested election case in the closing
hours of congress has irritated the
Democrats, and they may force the ma
Jority to furnish their own quorum to
unseat another Democrat AS the Re
publicans have not quorum of their
own in the city this furnishes the main
cause for alarm so far as the house is
concerned.

Rochester wheelmen met en- masse last
evening at Genesee Valley Park to pro-
test against the proposed action of the
Common Council to prohibit the use of
sidewalks anywhere within the city lin
its and compelling each wheelman to
register and purchase bell. There are
over 10000 wheels in the city owned by
adults.
All streets seemed to lead in the one
direction and every one of them was
marked by string Of cyclers, most OF
whom swung into Plymouth avenue, and
increased the stream of wheels which
from I until 5 o'clock seemed to actually
cover the pavement from curb to curb
for the entire length of the street.
Tt is estimated that 10000 wheei-riders
visited the park during the evening.
While the procession was in motion on
Plymouth avenue it was next to impos-
sible for a team to use the street in either
direction or for 4 wheel coming from
the opposite direction to pass.

ERIE TRACKS TO GO DP
The Company's Engineers
at Work Solving Diff
ficult Problems.
OUTLINE OF PROBABLE PLAN
Proposed Elevation of the Penn
sylvania and Centraps
Tracks in Newark.
OUTLINE OF PROBABLE PLAN

The matter of elevating the tracks of
the Erie Railroad through this city is
not, as many people believe, cotnatose.
The Mayor and those who fought SO hard
last winter to secure the passage of a bill
requiring the adjustment Of grade cross
ings has not been sleeping since the adj
jcurnment OF the Legislature, but have
been following the matter up closely.
The fact is that the company's engi-
neers are at work upon plan for putting
up their tracks, but they are confronted
by several difficult problems which did
not confront the other roads which have
elevated. The conditions which exist at
the tunnel are such as none of the COM
panies which have already elevated their
tracks had to contend with. Both the
Pennsylvania and the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western roads came out of the
hill at an elevation, and all that was
necessary was to build the elevated struc-
ture to the river.
With the Erie it is different The mouth
of the tunnel is to all purposes on level
with the river, and the problem which
confronts the engineers is how TO get up
above the streets. and then down again
to water front. OF course an elevated
be used the same as the Pennsylvania
does. But with freight it would pc
different, as it is necessary to bring the
cars down to grade again in order to
load them on floats. This, however, it
is stated. can be done, and the, company
has now under considerati ton plan which
provides for four tracks through the
hill. Two of these will be through the
present tunnel and will be used exclus-
lively for freight. Above this will be an
other tunnel, or, more likely, an open
cut like that of the Pennsylvania Conn
be run. From the mouth OF. the tunnel
there is to be an iron elevated structure
over which the trains will run to an ele-
waited terminus at the river.
The Erie engineers have had consulta-
tens with those of the Pennsylvania road
corning the various plans OF elevation
which that company has adopted through
various cities along it's system
The Erie people hope before long to be
in a position to take definite action in the
matter.
Mayer Wanser spent most of his time
in New York today. He was in consufta-
tion with the officials of the Erie Rail-
road, discussing the track elevation ques-
ton.
The Mayors interview of today will
doubtless bear fruit as the officials are
showing a disposition to accede TO the
demands of the public.
The Mayor anticipates making arrange
ments which will in every way be sat
isfactory to those people who have been
agitating the elevation Of the tracks
To accomplish the desired end the May
or is willing to make almost any conees-
sion. excluding the proposition to have
the city bear any part of the expense.
