COLD IN THEHEAD

L. acute inflammation and swelling of the
Olfactory organ which contains the
Nerves of Smell This organ Is a long
ribbon-like membrane and hangs from
the roof of the Nasal passage in folds, as
seen in Fig. 3. When this condition be-
comes chronic, or permanent, it Il called
CATARRH. The folds become swollen
into solid mass, 50 the air in breathing
cannot circulate between them hence
the loss Of smell. The Catarrhal microbe
soon makes its appearance, causing a
multitude of small ulcers between these
folds. The pus from these ulcerc Is very
poisonous and soon impregnates the
whole mucous surface Of the nose, h.ad
and throat with the disease. Medical
works show cases where the tonslls have
become a corrupt mass OF ulcers. 1t not
infrequently involves the whole bronchial
passage to the lungs, causing consump-
ton and death. 1t will be seen that
nothing can radically cure Catarrh which
does not reach to the seat of the disease
between these folds OF the Olfactory
organ, and cleanse and heal these ulcers.
BRAZILIAN RAlA is the only known remedy
mature that will accomplish this result.
1t will heal any old sore. Snuff a solu-

REFUSED THE AMENDMENT.

Asked for by Secretary Olney In the Ex-
 tradition Treaty-F'rancis On the Hook.
 Washington, Jan. 13.IThe senate de- voted two hours this afternoon to the consideration in executive session of the request of Secretary Olney for an amend ment to the extradition treaties with the Orange Free State and the Argentine Re public, ratified Monday, by the insertion of clause requiring each government to give up it's own citizens by extradition demanded by the other government a party to the treaty. This language ap- pears in none of our treaties, and was so out of the order of things that 1t pre- cipitated a long debate, participated in by Senators Morgan, Sherman, Chandler, Hoar and others. These senators took the position that each government was the judge of its own rights in such cases. Senator Davis also spoke at some length in opposition to the request of the sec- retary. It was shown that this country had never given up it's own citizens, and the senate held that the language asked for was unnecessary. At the conclusion of the debate no formal action was taken, but it was-evident that the senate should decline to make the amendment asked for and the treaties will stand as ratified Monday last.
 A resolution was adopted removing the injunction of secrecy from the general treaty of arbitration between this coun- try and Great Britain.
 The nomination of David R. Francis, or Missouri, to be secretary of the interior, was called up in executive session, and after a short speech by MT. Vest the case went over without action.

SNOW AND RAIN
Visits the Middle Northwest-Way Be- low Zero in New York State
 St. Lawrence Solid.

Chicago Jan. 13-Reports received from points in the west indicate that heavy snowstorm prevails, though the wind has been moderate and the weather intensely cold. Snow and rain fell in Kansas last night mad heavy snow be- gan in Colorado and Wyoming. Snow fell in South Dakota, and in Minnesota flakes are falling south of the central portion of the state and in Wisconsin and Michigan also.
 The snowfall was heavy in the Mis- souri Valley, and came eastward with great rapidity. At Carlyle. H., six inch es had fallen before midnight. St. Paul and Minneapolis, Sioux City, Omaha, St. Joe and St. Louis were all in the path of the storm last night, and either snow or rain fell heavily in each place before morning.
 At Duluth the winds were high and Lake Superior was unsafe. Throughout Nebraska and portions of Montana 1t was showing all day yesterday, and drifts have formed in railroad cuts. The snow, however Is light and fine, and drifts are therefore not serious. On the range cattle can easily get to the grass under the snow. Reports, however, indi- cate that a heavy fall in temperature is probable and this will put new and serious phase on the situation. Nebras- ka grain men are jubilant over the weather, as they say there never was so much moisture In the state In this season as at present. Throughout Iowa heavy snows are also reported with Som9 delay in railroad traffic.

 Bottom of Shaft.

New York, Jan. 13.-The United States cruiser Montgomery met with an acci- dent yesterday morning while rounding Governors Island, sustaining damage to three port side plates and to blade of her propeller. The cruiser was on her way to Hampton Roads to join the North Atlantic squadron with Captain Brad ford, thoroughly experienced navigator, in command. The cruiser was proceed ing at a fair speed when a sudden shock startled those aboard. Two more violent bumps immediately followed, and the alarm was at once sounded. Every man sprang to his post, the water-tight doors between compartments were closed and the engines stopped. Men sent below soon reported that the ship was not leak ing.
 Captain Bradford says he cannot imag- inc what the vessel struck. He says the ship was a safe distance from the Gov ernor's Island shore and sailing to the westward on line with Castle William and the barge office at the battery. The officers, assured that-al1 was right, pro- ceeded to Tompkinsville, where the ves- sel anchored for the night. Commodore Sicard of the Brooklyn navy yard, was notified. Investigation of the ships bot tom by a diver showed that the plates over the port forward fire room, the mid dle fire room and the port engine room, were dented fully quarter of an inch. One of the propeller blades was bent, one niclSed and in the engine room the ce- ment under the engine was badly cracked. The Governors Island shore is noted for its rocks and 1t is thought that one of the big boulders, so numerous there, may have become washed out to the channel. Several of the navy yard officials, however, expressed the opinion that the Montgomery perhaps hit an old submerged wreck. Soundings made to- day in the vicinity of the accident showed no depth less than eight fathoms.
 The Montgomery was ordered to return to the navy yard by Commandant Sick ard, and she put in an appearance there early this morning. She will be docked tomorrow. It is expected that her de- parture for tine south will be delayed un- til next week. An investigation of the accident will probably be ordered.

He threw aside his books and took the first train to Greenwood, repairing to the house of the young lady. She agreed to marry him, and he got the preacher at once. The happy couple then went for their future home at Yazoo City, leaving Russell dazed. The parties all stand high socially.

To the Dauntless and She is Still in Port
 After Filibusters at Key West.
 Jacksonville, Jan. 13.-Collector of Cus- toms G. R. Bisbee has received instruc- tions from Washington to refuse clear ance to the steamer Dauntless. the mas ter of which has applied for clear ance for Nuevitas, Cuba, with a cargo of arms and ammunition for the Cubans
 The order of the collector is based upon the report of the last voyage of the Dauntless, as made by Captain John w. Myers The report Is very unsattsfacto- ry, as it does not state the name Of the vessel to which the men and arms taken from No Name key were transferred at sea. fse.,iss
 The Dauntless is still in the custody of an officer of the revenue cutter Boutwell, but has not yet been libeled for any vio- lation of the neutrality or navigation laws of the United States. The steamer Three Friends is still in custody of the United States marshal, and her owners have not yet applied for her release on bond. Judge Locke's decision on form CT libel is anxiously looked for.
 The following from Key West shows that, the grand jury is trying to get at the bottom of the alleged filibustering trips of the Three Friends and other steamers supposed to be engaged In the business.
 Papers. were served by Deputy Mar shal Johnson upon Captain Horr, ex-col- lector of this port, and Peter Williams, ex-United States marshal, to appear be- fore Judge Locke at Jacksonville instan- ter, charged with implication in the fili- clustering expedition which was landed in Cuba by the steamer Dauntless on the last trip. They are charged with taking arms and munitions of war from No Name key in the tug Arab and trans ferring the same to the Dauntless."

appropriation bill was presented to the house today by M. B. Wadsworth chair man of the committee on agriculture. It carries an appropriation of sS,152,752, an increase of .s1O2,OS0 over the amount ap- propriated for the current fiscal year. The only material increase Is under the head of the bureau of animal industry and is intended to allow the extension of meat inspection. The committee dis cussed the matter of compulsory meat inspection," but decided to make 1t the subject of an independent bill and not to place 1t in the appropriation bill.
 For the purchase and distribution of valuable seeds, an appropriation of $120,- 900 Is made and the secretary Is directed to expend the appropriation.
 Secretary Morton made no estimate for this expenditure, and, as in former bills, 1t was inserted without his sanction.
