london to be Fortiaed.

London is to be fortified against posi-
BILE invasion by forces landing on the south
ern coast. The plan of fort works dates
as far back as the time of the Duke of
Wellington, but has been revived by Lord
Wolseley and other military authorities
and adapted to the changes of modern war
fare. The military works bill provides for
the construction of a chain of fort works
from the Southern downs to the heights
on the south of London, on which the
Crystal palace is conspicuous object
The scheme includes barracks and other
military works. The cost, which will be
something formidable for the treasury to
face, will be met by advances from the con
solidated fund, to be repaid by instruments
extending over 90 years.

Something to Know.

1t may be worth something to know
that the very best medicine for restoring
the tired out nervous system to healthy
vigor Is Electric Bitters, This medicine
is purely vegetable, acts by giving tone
to the nerve centers in the stomach,
gently stimulates the Liver and Kidneys,
and aids these organs in throwing off
impurities in the blood. Electric Bitters

WOMAN SUFFRAGE GAINING.

The Tender Sex Now Vote in a Great Many
States.
Nebraska has just knocked out the
woman suffragists, but they are gaining
elsewhere.
In the British house of commons the
bill granting women the right to vote
for members of parliament has passed
on its second reading by vote of 228 to
l37, which is supposed to indicate the
popularity of the measure.
Within the past few years New York,
Massachusetts and South Carolina have
refused to grant suffrage TO women, but
in Colorado, Utah and Wyoming they
have it, and vote for all officers, includ-
ing presidential electors.
On questions of taxation or schools
women vote in Arizona, Delaware, Ida
no, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky,
Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota,
Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire,
New Jersey, North Dakota, Ohio, Okla
homa, Oregon, South Dakota, Texas,
Vermont, Washington and Wisconsin.
In Australia, New Zealand, Cape Col
Ony, Canada and parts of Inaia, in the
English colonies, women enjoy limited
suffrage.
After, all the matter rests largely with
them. When they unite in the demand
for it they generally get It. Here in the
south they have never asked for it, but
there is no telling what may como in tb G
near future.

HISTORIC OAPITOLs.
Virginia Fears That Pennsylvania's Fate
May BE Hers.

may he Hers.
The Pennsylvania state house. which
was destroyed by fire on Tuesday, was
about three-quarters of century old and
was an Anticipated affair, though great
sums Of money had been spent upon it to
adapt it to the state uses, Still it was
very dear to the people, many of whom
shed tears of sorrow when its walls fell in.
We may expect our Virginia capitol to
share like fate some day. unless the leg
islature provides for fireproofng it
throughout. The foundations of our state
capitol were laid in 1885, before the feder-
al constitution had been adopted and it is
therefore by long odds the oldest building
of the sort in the United States Not only
this, but it has been the scene of some of
the most exciting legislative events in our
Country's history, including those incident
to the sessions of the Confederate con-
gress
We wish our legislature would arrange
to f1reproof the capitol 1t might be done
year by year, as the legislature could find
the money to do it. The building has been
on fire more than dozen times, and moth
ing but constant watching has kept it
from destruction. BY the substitution of
the present girders, beams and roof tim
bers with ironwork the old building could
be preserved for ages to come. Thus we
should avoid the expense to which Penn
sylvania is now to De subjected, and thus
also we could preserve to posterity one of
the buildings in this country that are rich
est in historical associations. Richmond

The Gar Carries a Revolver.

Ever since the assassination of the Car
Alexander II the young emperor of Rus
STA, it is said, has carried about with him
small revolver which was given to him
by his mother, the dowager empress of
Russia, who exacted the promise that
whenever he was away from the royal pal
ace he would carry it with him. Since he
has been travelling in Europe the emperor
has kept the revolver ever by his bedside,
the idea haunting him, as it haunted his
mother and still haunts his young wife,
that whenever the fated assassin appears
as appear he will, they all firmly believe
he will be as swift and determined as was
the ''patriot" who blew up his GRANDPA
ther, surrounded as he was by his trusty
guards and hundreds of police. When driv-
ing, the emperor has his revolver, always
loaded in it's six chambers, in pocket Of
his carriage, just near his right hand.

WARNING
TO
BURGLARS AND THIEVES.
THESE PREMISES
PROTECTED.

The name Of a burglar insurance comDa

The name of a burglar insurance compa-
ny follows the warning. A stipulation of
the contract between the insurance compa-
ny and its patron is that the warning
shall be affixed to the building in such a
position as to be in plain sight of those
who pass by or into the building either
from the front or rear.
Among the policies issued by these com
panies are what are known as the "resi-
dence policy" the mercantile policy,
the 'bank policy and the bicycle poll
cy"
The company depends largely upon its
exceptional facilities of protection from
thieves and burglars. Each patron is pro-
yided with a means of instant communica-
ton with the nearest police station and
Pfnkerton agency. Then the matter is in
the hands of Jhe company, and it is their
business to see shat the criminal is run to
earth. Unlike the police detectives the
detectives of this company are paid to get
on case and stay on it until the criminal
is located and captured. A cash reward
for each arrest is also offered by the COM
pany.

General Harrison Writes of "a Day With
the President at His Desk"

General Harrison Writes of "a Day With
the President at His Desk
Ex-President Harrison has written of
GA Day With the President at His
Desk'' for the March Ladies' Home
Journal. The article is said to be singu-
larly interesting in the detail with which
it describes the wearisome routine If
the president 1t is said that General
Harrison, in this article, has delivered
himself with great directness and vigor,
relative to the annoyances that are visit
ed upon chief executive by persistent
office-seekers, and he suggests unique
plan by which thu presidents burdens
in that direction could be greatly light
ened, and be enabled to devote more
attention to more important matters. A
feature of the article that will have
timely interest to those ambitious to
serve the country under the incoming
administration describes very fully how
the president makes his appointments to
office. "a Day With the President at
His Desk is unique in being the first
time that the daily life of the president
has been described by one who has filled
the exalted office. Articles upon the
social and domestic life of the president
by General Harrison will follow in sue

NEURALGIA, CATARRH AND RHEUMA.
TISM COMPLETELY CURED.

George Briggs, of Moore, Oklahoma,
writes that p. p. p, Lippman's Great
Remedy, cured him of catarrh, facial
neuralgia and rheumatism, after three
years of intense suffering. The pain
lay in his cheek bone and temple, down
the right side of his face, along his
upper lip, and from the slightest touch
he suffered agonies forweeks at time.
Could only open his mouth wide enough
to admit a teaspoon, and any acid in
his food would put him in torture. He
had a consultation of the best physi-
clans in Texas, but all to no purpose.
Catarrh and rheumatism were also
causing him much trouble, until he
tried =. p. 2. He says he is well and
will swear that there are no cases of
neuralgia, catarrh and rheumatism,
no matter how chronic or how old the
cases are, that p. =. 2. will not make
total cure of.
Mr.. Briggs winds up his testimony
by saying he thanks God and our med
icine, 2. P. P, Lippmans Great Rem
edy, for the great cure.
Kidney troubles, if neglected, bring
about serious and painful and very
often fatal results. P. p. p. removes
the irregularities, and cures the dis
eased parts.
Dyspepsia and indigestion, skin and
blood diseases, can be speedily removed
by p. p. p, Lippmans Great Remedy
Ladies, take 2. P. P. and rid your
face of pimples, blotches, freckles,
yellow or muddy skin, wrinkles and
vulgar redness. z g

BRYAN WINS HIS CASE.
COURT sUsTAINs THELATE
PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE.
The Case Was Against the City of Lincoln
Which Wanted 10 Sell Bonds
for Gold Only.
for Gold Only.

The somewhat celebrated gold bond
injunction suit, in which w. j. BRYAN.
as the plaintiff, sought to restrain the
mayor and city council of Lincoln, Neb,.
from delivering $5S4,5OO refunding
bonds, with gold clause attached, to
ex-City Treasurer Stephenson, has been
decided by the supreme court, and Mr..
Bryan's position was sustained.
Nearly two years ago proposition to
vote bonds was submitted and carried by
bare majority. The city council con-
tracted for their purchase with Stephen
son, who insisted on gold clause, which
was allowed.
Mr.. Bryan enjoined the sale on the
ground that the bozds were illegally car
ried and further, that the city charter
prohibited discrimination between gold
and currency bonds.
District Judge Holmes decided in his
favor and the city council appealed. The
supreme court affirms the decision of
the lower court, laying stress on the fact
that the bonds were illegally declared
carried, but was silent on the gold clause
feature.

If you want to fish, go to Unalaska. One
evening we walked along the beach and
came upon little half breed boy lying on
his back on the sand with his hands clasp
ed under his head. He was fishing. A
quarter inch rope was tied to a stake, with
a little of the slack looped around his foot
and it ran out into the water. Almost i'm
mediately after we came there was a bite.
The boy looked Indifferent, but sat half
way up and pulled in the line, which was
about 60 feet long, and made up of as many
pieces as the tail of a kite. He had this
time halibut that would weigh perhaps
20 pounds. Drawing it well up on the
bank he released the hook and cast it out
again. In two minutes more he was pull
ling out Goldfish nearly as big as the hall
but Then he caught % couple of founders
and another cod and 50 on. When he arose
after awhile to CO. the boy wound in his
line, said few words in Aleut about the
weather or something else and, picking out
one of the fish that suited his fancy went
home.-Chicago Record.

Mr.. George Briggs, of Moore, OKLA,
suffered almost indescribable torment
for three long years. Neuralgia held
him captive. The right side of his face
was so badly affected that the slightest
touch would cause the unfortunate
man intense agony. For several weeks
he could open his mouth just wide
enough to be fed with liquid nourish-
ment, and in this manner life was sus-
tanned. Read the following extract
from his letter: "Truth is stranger

American Lumber in China.

Thirteen million square feet Of Ameri-
can lumber were imported into China
last year, and, according to United States
Consul Jernigan at Shanghai, most of
this came from Washington or Oregon.
The Chinese have completely denuded
eastern China of its timber and are now
drawing upon our timber. Recent slim
ulation of mill building in China and the
growing liking of natives for foreign
style houses have led TO much OF this de-
mand.

The readers of this paper will be pleas
to learn that there is at least one dread
ed disease that science has been able to
cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure known to the medical fraternity.
Catarrh being constitutional disease,
requires constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system, thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in do
ing its work. The proprietors have so
much faith in it's curative powers that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list
