Making Money for Foreixners.

I, * not generally known that the
United States nlints make money for
other nations as well as for our own.
The mint in Philadelphia, which has
iust finished making $1,000 in So gold
pieces for Costa Rica. has begun work
ON SEQ. 600 silver dollars for San DOmin-
go. The designs on the coin are often
i'eas Of the governments which send
the ordars, and are got up in such .
way as to make imitation as difficult
as possible for the cOunterfeiter. The
coin is shipped i'll bags to New York.
where it is carried to its destination
on the regular line steamers. The ne
port given h.. the mint as to the amount
Of precious metal used is never Ques-
toned by the foreigners.

and with fury-a tempest of thunder and
tire-a hailstOrm of shot and shell. And
when night closed down the battle was
ended and the Federal troops were mas
tiers Of the field. Some of the regiments
that went into that sanguinary conflict
came out with but thirty men, and one
which went in in the morning with POO
the Twentieth Illinois-came out with
but fifteen!
AS Logan appeared ut the battle Of At
lanta so he appeared in all the conflicts in
which he participated during the wac. He
was the idol of the common soldier; when
ever he was seen galloping recklessly in
the most exposed positions, his long locks
floating in the wind, the men set up cry
of Logan, Logan; We'll follow where the
Black Eagle leads!'
Care for His Men.
DR.. Roller was with Gen. Logan during
the entire war. He declares that one OF
Logans marked characteristics was his
care for his men. During battle he ex-
pected them to fight, to dare anything
which promised victory. At other times
no commander could have been more at
tcntive to questions of food, shelter and
hospital care. DIR. Roller relates an ex-
ample of this which occurred at Hunts
vile, Ala. The army spent two or three
months there in winter quarters. Logan
was popular even with the Southerners
there because of his fairness and genial
ity. One of the Union generals, now dead,
was known to sympathize strongly with
the enemy, although in Federal uniform.
This general and his staff had been quar-
tered in n large mansion in the outskirts
of the town. 1t belonged to a Southern
gentleman to whom that particular gen.
eral was much attached. He promised
that when he and his staff retired the
house should not be Occupied further by
the army. When the time came to move,
however, there We're many sick and
wounded to be left behind. The only
available house suitable for Il hospital was
the old gentleman's mansion. DIR. Roller
called on Logan and related the circum-
stances. Logan ut once said when it
comes to a conflict between our friends
and our wounded soldiers, I'll take the
part of the wounded" and Immediately
ordered the house to be used for hospital
purposes.

The Reciprocity Clause.

The reciprocity provision as agreed TO
Nv tho conference contains some or the
features of both the Senate and the
Uouse ILLS on this subject. What may be
termed the retaliatory clause of the pro-
vision is that which empowers the fresl-
dent to suspend by proclamation the pro-
visions of this act providing for the free
introduction of coffee. tea. Tonquin or
tonsa beans and vanilla beans coming
from any country which imposes duties
unon pr,ducts of the United States he
NAV deem to be reciprocally unequal and
unreasonable. The rates which he is thus
enpowered to fix are: On coffee, . cents
nound: or tea. 10 cents a pound; on tonka
beans. so cents pound; on vanilla beans,
So a pound; on cuts, 81. The President is
REQUIRED to act within two years in Sc
curing these reciprocal trade treaties, and
they are to be submitted to the Senate for
it's ratification. Articles are to be reduced
TO the extent Of 20 per cent in these
treaties. and the President is specifically
authorized to enter into negotiations
which vii. place certain articles upon the
free list for a specified period of five
years. The President is empowered to re-
woke the concession when satisfied that
the agreement is not adhered to in good
faith by any other country with which
an agreement shall have been made.

TO CURE NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA.
To Gain Flesh, to sleep Well, TO
Know what Appetite and Good

OF stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
Interesting Experience of an In
dianapolis Gentleman.

No trouble Is more common or more mis-
understood than nervous dyspepsia People
having IL think that their nerves are TO
blame. and are surprised that they are not
cured by nerve medicine and spring reme-
dies. the real seat OF the mischief is lost
sight Of; the stomach is the organ 10 be
looked after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whatever in the stomach, nor
perhaps any OF the usual symptoms OF sto-
mach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia shows
Itself not In the stomach so much as in
nearly every other organ; in some cases
the heart palpitates and is irregular; in
others the kidneys are affected; In others
the bowels are constipated. with head
aches; still others are troubled with loss
OF flesh and appetite, with accumulation
of gas, sour risings, and heartburn.
Mr.. A. w. Sharper. Of No. 81 Prospect
street, Indianapolis, Ind. writes as fol-
lows: "a motive Of pure gratitude prompts
me to write these few lines regarding the
new and valuable medicine, Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets. I have been a sufferer
from nervous dyspepsia for the last four
years; have used various patent medi-
cnes and other remedies without any IA
vorable result. They sometimes gave tenn
porary relief until the effects Of the medi-
cine wore of. attributed this 10 my Sc
dentary habits, being a book-keeper, with

these obstacles. for have gained in flesh.

New Game Law.

sweeping and calculated 10 effect q
radical change In the sport Of Texas
The law was passed al the instance Of
the Sp,rhmsn's association Of the
State aud is intended 10 protect the
game preserves Of the State from the
depreciation Of the pot hunter and the
interstate market hunter. claimed,
however, that some OF the provisions
Of the law are more sweeping In their
effect than was intended, and that the
enforcement Of the law will seriously
effect the sport Of hunting, even by
true spor,smen, For instance, II ID
made an oilense Tor any person 70 Offer

wild deer not taken or killed In the
county IN which Il il held OF offered for
sale. Another section makes II unlaw'
fol for railroad and express companies
10 receive for tran,poltition to any
point within or without the Stat,
almost any kind Of game. This, Il Il
claimed, will prohibit a BRENNAN
hunter going out to another county and
bringing home the fruits OF his chase
as Il Ia not only unlawful for the rail
road company to transport such game
but It Is also an odense for the huniei
b have such game In his possession In
any county other than in which It wal
killed. -Brenham Banner.
