The Drop In silver Considered Due to
Lack of Demand.
NEW YORK, July 2S.-Silver is lower
Than ever before. Until the decline of
recent date the lowest prices We're those
of March and D, 1894. at the time of
the closing of the Indian mints. The
opening quotations yesterday were, bar
silver 5Sl, Mexican dollars. 451a, and
the closing was 5Sl4 and 4534 respect

The local dealers can assign no other
reason than lack of demand. There
being no special orders of silver for any
European country for mintage and
India not being in the market, they re-
gard the fall as natural.

TWomey Does Best Work-Some of
Them Under the Weather

Brunswick's Ritlemen had trip yes
terday that they will not wish to re-
peat.
The following special to THE TIMES
last night tells the story of this re-
markable military expedition.
Albany, March 23.-After a journey
of Is hours, including long and IA
tlguing stay at Willingham, l6 miles
from the city, incident to the general
washout, the Brunswick Riflemen ar
rlevd here at o'clock. They were in
the worst possible condition for a fes-
tive occasion; wet, worn and muddy,
they looked like a detachment retreat
ing from hard fought engagement.
The company had to swim and wade
over three miles through the flood in
order to reach Albany at all. There
was no railroad connection.
The company, however, was plucky
enough to put up four men in the in
dIvIdual drill, although they were in
no condition to do good work. A. g.
LETTERS, J. NJ. Virgins, Henry Pear
son and j. z. Twomey represented the
Rifiemen. They drilled against
twelve men, chosen from each of the
other four companies present.
Scott. of the Albany Guards, won
the medal. The Riflemen went out in
the following order letters third,
Virgins eleventh, Pearson twelfth
and Twomey fourteenth, the latter
standing third to the last.
The Riflemen made a protest on the
ground that an Albany officer gave
the commands in the drill, thus Civ
ing an advantage to the Guards.
1t is impossible to say at present
when the Rflemen will reach home.

If we could trace dyspepsia to it's
source, it would lead back to our kltch-
ems. In fact, the secret of good health
is good cooking. If well cooked,
foods are partially digested; If poorly
cooked, they are less digestlble than IN
their raw state. If you are a victim
of faulty cooking; that is, if you SUI
fer from dyspepsia the rational cure
must be looked for in an arti6cially di-
gested food, and food which will at
the same time aid the digestion of
other foods. such a preparation vir-
tually rests the tired digestive or
gans, thereby restoring them to their
natural strength,
The Digestive Cordial, as prepared
by the Shakers of Mount Lebanon, is
just such preparation, and single
l0-cent bottle will convince you of it's
value. If your druggist doesn't keep
it, he will be glad to get it through
his wholesale house.
