Won 1Iis AdmIre,.,s 1Ynrer.

New York, July eighteen months
ago yesterday Frank Burton left the
city hall for a trip around the world.
He began the journey as the result of
a wager made by two prominent sport
ing men in this city. One, who was an
admlrer of Burton, declared that he
could go around the world, starting
without a cent in his pocket and make
the trip without begging, borrowing or
stealing a dollar Each of these two
men staked $4,000 on the trip Yester-
day afternoon Burton walked into the
mayors office his journey completed.
He comes to New York with $1,000
earned on the trip, and last night re-
ceived $500 Of the money wagered
The young man carried proofs that he
carried out the terms of the wager.
He was Ill with typhoid fever for IA
weeks in Shanghai, and was wrecked
on the steamer Angiemaud in the In
dian ocean. The steamer was a total
loss.

acted however coal from Nova
Scotia invaded the eastern market,
driving out the Virginia and West
Virginia product, and compelled the
mines of that section tofind market
elsewhere The result was that their
coal went west instead of east, as it
formerly had done, and, with reduced
railroad rates, was laid down i'm the
markets of Cincinnati, Chicago, and
other western cities at such low rates
that a coal war, followed by a rail
road rate war, was precipitatcd
The natural result of this and the
reductions in prices which followed
was a reduction in the wages of coal
miners all of which is thus clearly
traceable to the Wilson law and its
reduction in duties ON coal.

The Coal Strike.

Some interesting and important
facts as to the effect of the Wilson
tariff law upon coal mining and upon
the miners themselves are brought
out by the coal miners strike which
is now agitating the country. The
Wilson law reduced the rates of duty
on coal from IS cents per ton to 40
cents per ton. This is just about the
amount of reduction in miners wages,
of which complaint is now being
made and emphasized by the strike
inaugurated on July 4th. President
Ratchford, of the United Mine
Workers Association, in a communi-
cation to the New York Herald, indi-
Gates that the wages of miners have
been reduced since 1898 an average
of 30 cents per ton, which is just
about the amount of the reduction in
duties made by the Wilson law
Curiously this reduction in wages
is thus coincident as to time and
amount with the reduction in tariff.
That the reduction in wages was a
direct result Of the tariff is, however,
accurately shown in another and
equally striking series of facts.
Prior to tine enactment of the Wilson
law the eastern cities and manufac-
turing establishments We're supplied
with coal largely from the Virginia
and West Virginia mines.
As soon as the Wilson law was en-

HOT WEATHER DYSPEPSIA.
Thousands Suffer From It at This Season
of the Year.


Hot weather dyspepsia may be recognized
by the following symptoms: Depression of
spirits, heaviness and pain in the stomach
after meals, loss Of flesh and appetite, no de-
sire for food bad taste in the mouth, espec-
tally in the morning, wind in stomach and
bowels irritable disposition, nervous weak
ness, WEAKNESS, costiveness, headache, palpi-
tation, heartburn. Itisa mistake to treat
such troubles with "touics,' blood purif-
ers, "cathartics, pills. because the
whole trouble is in the stomach. 1t is iudi-
gcstion or dyspepsia and nothing else,
All these symptoms rapidly disappear
when the stomach is relieved, strengthened,
and cleansed by stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
They should be taken after meals and few
carried in the pocket to be used whenever
any pain or distress is felt in the stomach.
They are prepared only for stomach troubles.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are endorsed
by such physicians as DR.. Harlandson, DIR.
Jennisou and DR.. Mayer, because they con
taiu the natural digestive acids and fruit
essences which when taken into the stomach
cause the prompt digestion of the food before
it has time to fcrment and sour, which is the
cause Of the mischief
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are pleasant to
take and unequalled for inyalids children
and every person afflicted with imperfect di-
gestion. 1t is safe to say they will cure any
form of stomach trouble except cancer Of the
stomach.
Nearly all druggists sell stuart's Dyspep-
sia Tablets, full sized packages at so cents.

In various sections of the state,
where there is at this time a rush to
the naturalization courts, the judges
are more discriminating than form
erly. Especially is this the case in
Lackawanna county, where Judges
Archibald and Edwards have adopted
an iron-clad rule that inability to
read in the English language was an
absolute disqualification If such a
rule were adopted in this county
there would be fewer naturalization
papers issued, as the majority of
those applying are invariably accom-
panied by an interpreter to answer
the questions prOpounded.

by providing that Commander Mullen

commanders in the navy and be sus-
pended form rank and duty on one
half of sea pay for five years. The
practical effect of this sentence prob
ably will be to prevent the officer from
