\ COAL AFFAIR.
Court Martial to Follow Purchase OF
Navy Fuel at This Port.

WASHINGTON, July 30.-Secretary
Herbert is seriously considering the
advisability of ordering a naval court
martial to try the officers of the
United States ship Charleston, which
vessel recently arrived in San Fran
cisco from Honolulu. 1t is charged
against Capt. Coffin. his chief engineer
and the paymaster that, instead of
coaling the Charleston from the Gov
eminent coal pile at Honolulu, the
vessels officers purchased fuel from
private contractors at Sl2 per ton, the
total cost being $4,000. In justification
of their conduct the Charleston's Off
GERS say that they did not like tn"
Government coal at Honolulu
The correspondent learned at the
Navy Department today that a court
martial would probably soon be con-
vened at Mare Island.

as for no other medi- - -


cine. Its great cures recorded in truthful,
convincing language Of grateful men and
women, constitute its most effective ad-
vertising. Many of these cures are mar
velous. They have won the confidence OF
the people; have given Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla the largest sales in the world, and
have made necessary for it's manufacture
the greatest laboratory on earth. Hoods
Sarsaparilla is known by the cures it has
made-cur of scrofula, salt rheum and
eczema, cures of rheumatism, neuralgia
and weak nerves, cures Of dyspepsia, liver
and kidney troubles, catarrh and malaria.
Such Cures as This Prove Merit.
"My little nephew was a plump and
healthy baby until year and half old,
then sores broke out behind his ears and
spread rapidly over his head, hands and
body. A physician said the trouble was
scrofula bumor in the blood. The child
became one complete sore. We had to
restrain his hands to keep him from
scratching the sores. We were induced
to try Hoods Sarsaparilla, and in a short
time he had more life. He improved rap
idly, his skin became entirely clear Of
sores and he is now healthy child."i MRS.

Il am 81 years of age, and until

then for long while and until

told me how to take them, and
and they have completely cured
me. My wife is now troubled

It Seems That We Have New Smile.

II Seems That We Have a New Smile.
In AID age in which so many things
are new, it was not to be supposed that
We should escape the new smile Like
manv other such inventions, it comes
across the Atlantic from America, and,
like the baby pose of 10 or ~ years ago,
It attacks all sorts and conditions of
women
The wide and careless smile, more a
crn than smile, which is the mark of
those who lei themselves be swayed by
an ill considered mirth to the detriment
Of their personal appearance, has quite
rome cut Of fashion. The new exercise
Is a slow and dreamy expansion Of the
'hps it is poetic, and hints at great
things, such as a life not understood by
the ordinary run of folk, a heart yearn-
/ Ing for love and other kindred subjects,
md Is calculated 10 lay low at the first
4 Gre al but the most bucolic and heart
les Of men.
And yet the origin Of the new smile
4 i BY 10 means so poetic. 1t is merely
al affair Of dentistry when its springs
are analysed III America, as we know
| from books Of travel, women are for
ever sucking candy, with the result that
their teeth suffer, and though the den
tists Of the States are second to none,
there are occasions when they cannot re-
pair the ravages of the sweet stuff shops.
therefore il is not always safe to smile
with etfusion, for it may be that a tooth
s imperfect, though not yet ready for
EXTRACTION
The art If the new smile consists in
Eonoealiug the affected tooth, and only
showing those of it's companions which
Rill bear momentary inspection. In fact,
he new smile. like so many of its con-
empdraries, is a sham, and the only
ood thing that can be said in it's favor
that it is not worn by the new wom-

Lorne Was Fishing.

There is a story to the effect that
when the powers that were" de-
creed that Queen Viotoria's daugh-
ter. the Princess Louise, must be
provided with a husband there were
five of her majesty's subjects who
were named as being eligible. The
position of s~on-in-law to the queen
is not, however, looked upon as in
every way a desirable one, and four
of the noble gentlemen in question,
getting wind of the affair, promptly
went off and engaged themselves to
ladies for whom they had prefer
onces. The son of the Duke of Ar
gyll CHANGED to be away on a fishing
trip at the time and so heard moth
ing of the matter until his return to
London, when almost Immediately
the hand Of the princess was offered
to him. This was of course practl-
cally equal to a royal command, and
very shortly afterward the marriage
took place.-New York journal.
