A Surprise For the ola Man.

One of those big, hardy men who got in
to the pine woods early, endured the hard
ships of pioneer, finally made fortune
and then came to Detroit as one of the IA
vored spots on earth in which to live has
a young son who aspires to athletic honors
and has a big room in the barn equipped
as gymnasium. The old gentleman was
a powerful man in his day and had to deal
with refractory woodsmen, who yielded to
nothing but muscular suasion. 1t is diff
cult for person like him to realize that
age draws on strength and activity.
One afternoon last week the father went
by special invitation to see the gymnasium.
The first thing to attract his attention
was punching bag, one of those arrange
ments that comes back when you hit it,
and comes back harder the harder you hit
it. When its uses were explained to the
old giant of the woods, he promptly an
nounced that he'd either "bu'st the thing
or knock it through the ceiling"
Drawing back as if to fell OK, the ia
ther let go, and there was a thud as
though q trolley car had collided with an
elephant. Before the air had ceased to
culver there was a quick but gubdued
'bif.'' The bag had come back, driving
the puncher's cigar half way down his
throat, filling his whiskers with hot ashes
and starting the claret from his promi-
nent nose. With such whoop as used to
waken the echoes of the North woods the
old gentleman went at the bag. And the
bag staid right with him. 1t was literal
ly give and take, the maddened puncher
tearing around as if he was fighting bees
and throwing ton into every punch. The
coachman and the stable boy had to be
called up to help part the old man and the
punching bag. Then the son had to hide
the shotgun, for the putting, used up ia
ther vowed all kinds of vows that he would
get even with that ALTERNATE slugger." :"

SEC'Y WILSON'S FIRST.
Horse Meat Must Not be Shipped as
Beef

Washington. March 10.-The first Off
cial order issued by Secreatry Wilson
of the department OF agriculture has
made it's appearance. 1t concerns the
expectation of beef to foreign countries
and provides:
THAT from and after March IL, 1897,
all beef offered for transportation to
European ports, whether fresh, salted,
canned corned or packed, being the
meat of cattle killed after the passage
of the act under which this order is
made, shall be accompanied by certi-
ficate issued by an inspector of this
department, showing that the cattle
from which it was produced were free
wholesome; and in order that it may be
determined whether all beef exported
to European ports has been so inspected
and found to be wholesome it is further
ordered that the meat of all other spe-
cies OF animals exported to such ports,
which for any reason does not bear the
inspection stamps of this department,
should be packed in barrels, cases or
other packages which are legibly mark
ed in such manner as to clearly indicate
the species of animal from which the
meat was produced. Meat which is not
SO marked, and which is not accomPan-
led by certificate of inspection will be
classsed as uninspected beef and will
not be allowed expectation to European
ports
No clearance is to be given to any
vessel having on board such meats un-
til the provisions of the order are COM
piled with. Until otherwise ordered
certificates will not be required for beef
exported to other than European mar
ketS.

PLACE SEEKERS MUST WAIT
Few Appointments Will be Made On
til the Tariff Bill is Passed

Washington, March 1o.-An officers of
the new cabinet have indicated a pur
pose to move very slowly in the changes
of personnel of their departments. This
is not very cheerful news to office-seek-
ers and has been communicated directly
to many who have been unable to re-
press their ambitions, and, to add to
their discomfort, it is intimated that
there are to be few changes in office,
save where the incumbent insists upon
immediate retirement for some time to
come.
This may be an over estimate of the
conservatism displayed, but it is
recalled that Mr.. Mckinley, before his
inaugura ton, held to the view that the
changes in office, with all it's accom-
panying confusion and arrangement OF
business should not be undertaken un-
til the tariff bill is enacted
It is expected that John Hay Will at
once be named as ambassador to Great
Britain and Mr.. Horace Porter of New
York ambassador to Paris, and that
there may be a few other nominations,
including Gen. Powell Clayton of Ark
ansas as minister to Mexico.
The president has definitely settled
upon ]. H Brigham of Ohio for assts-
tant secretary of agriculture and the
nomination doubtless will be sent to
the senate in few days. Mr. Brigham
is master of the national grange He
is a war veteran and has figured con-
siderably in Ohio politics and is an old
friend of the president.

WITHOUT A RIVAL,
PANIC AMONG IMPORTERS.
There is a Rush to Get Imported
Goods Out of Bond

New York, March 1O.-The World
says: The dispatches from Washing
ton predicting that congress at it's spec
aal session will at once increase the rev.
enue by adding from 10 to 35 per cent
10 the schedules of the Wilson bill have
created a small panic among importers
and an almost unprecedented rush to
get bonded goods out of the ware
houses before the threatened increase
takes effect
The proposed summary action of con-
gress has taken merchants completely
by surprise. While they We're prepared
for special session to pass a new tar
tff law, they expected that the new bill
would occupy the attention of congress
for at least six moths, which would
give them ample time to withdraw the
$19, 500. 600 of goods which were in bond
on January 81. 1t had never occurred
to them that congress might adopt
temporary measure for increasing the
revenue and the possibility of such
thing with only about ten days to get
their goods out of bond at the present
rate of duty, caused a genuine sensa-
ton.
It is understood that Butterffeld &.
Co, and other importers of dress goods
are. among the heaviest withdraWers.
In banking circles there is greatly
increased demand for loans on com
mercfal paper. At one of the banks a
loan of $500, 900 was negotiated by a big
importing firm for the purpose of with
drawing goods from bond, and the pay
ment of duty thereon.

TO CURE NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA.
To Gain Flesh, TO sleep Wen, tO Know
What Appetite and Good Digestion
Mean, Make n Test of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
Interesting Experience of an In di an
aPOIls GemfIeman.

No trouble is more common or more
misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia.
People having it think that their nerv-
es are to blame and are surprised that
they are not cured by nerve medicine
and spring remedies; the real seat of
the mischief is lost sight of; the stom-
ach is the organ to be looked after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whatever in the stomach, nor
perhaps any of the usual symptoms of
stomach 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 ire
gular; in others the kidneys are effected I;
in others the bowels are constipated
with headaches; still others are troub-
led with loss of flesh and appetite, with
accumulation of gas, sour risings and
artburn.
Mr.. A. w. Sharper of No. 81 Prospect
St, Indianapolis, Ind, writes as follows:
"A motive of pure gratitude prompts
me to write these few lines regarding
the new and valuable medicine. Stuart'S s
Dyspepsia Tablets l have been a Suf-
ferer from nervous dyspepsia for the
last four years; have used various pat
ent medicines and other remedies with
out any favorable result They some

but is based on actual fact.

It is safe to say that Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets will cure any stomach
weakness or disease except cancer of

The Curse
Of Mankind!.

The most horrible disease to which
the human family is subject is conta-
gious blood poison. 1t has always
bafned the doctors, for notwithstanding
the progress made in some branches of
medicine, they have failed absolutely to
discover cure for If. Whether in the
form of powder, pill or liquid, the doc
tors prescription is always the same
potash or mercury.
Mr.. Otto H. Ebert, who resides at the
corner of 22d Street, and Avenue N,
Galveston, Texas, had a severe expert
ence with this dreadful disease, and
under date of April 5th, 1896, writes:
"Severa1 years ago was so unfortu-
nate as to contract contagious blood

from Birmingham. Ala, says: The
north bound express train No. 4, on the
Louisville & Nashville road due at
Louisville at 1925 noon Wednesday
was held up by six masked men near
Calera Tuesday morning. The train
had stopped at a water tank in the
woods when two men boarded the en-
gine and covered the engineer and fire
man with pistols and forced them to
uncOuple the lomotive and express car
from the remainder of the train and
run forward half a mile with it. Here
four men were in waiting.
The messenger refused to open the
car when the door was broken open.

forced to open the safe. A number of
packages of money was secured. The
total amount is not known, but it is
said to have been large.

TARIFF BILL NEARLY DONE
10 be introduced Promptly After
Congress Assemblies.

Washington, March 1O-Chairman
Dingley of the ways and means COM
mittee says that he expects the new
tariff bill will be ready to introduce in
the house very soon after congress as
sembles. Speaking of the report that
the law might provide that the duties
assessed should go into effect immedi-
ately upon the Introduction of the bill
Mr.. Dingley said it would be i1npossi-
Bile under our constitution to make a
law retroactive. Duties, he said
must be assessed according to the law
on the statute books at the time the
goods were imported. The law could
provide that goods still in bond should
pay the new tariff duty if they had not
been withdrawn from bond at the time
the law went into effect.
The additions to the dutiab1e list in
clude some chemicals used in the man
ufacture of soaps, and it might be well
to increase the duty on soaps.
The pottery schedule has not yet been
compiled, and there is considerable
question whether the adva1orem rates
of the Mckinley law shall be restored
or specific duties imposed.

Mrs. Gilbert's Mouth was Filled With
Plaster Paris to Stop Her Talking.

Cleveland, O., March 1O.-Nellie A.
Gilbert, wife of DR.. Frederick Gilbert,
told a remarkable story in a petition
filed in court today. The young woman
brought suit against her husbands
father, DR.. C. H. Gilbert, for $50, 900
damages for the alienation of her hus-
bands affections and for 500, 900 for as
Sault alleged to have been committed
her by her father-in-law. The al
legged assault, which she declared was
committed by DR.. Gilbert, consisted of
filling her mouth with wet plaster of
paris and permitting the substance to
harden, thus preventing her from talk
ing. She alleges she was found by her
brother in an unconscious condition,
with the plaster in her mouth, and that
1t was necessary to use a hammer to
break the plaster before 1t could be
taken from her mouth.
The allega ton as to the alienation of
her husbands affections consists of a

The Great Miners Strike at
Leadville, Colorado
Has Been Declared Of by Vote
of the Union.
LASTED EIGHT MONTHS
Cost Employees Alone Four Mil

Union Lost One-haIf Its Mem
bership.

Leadville, Col. March 1o.-At meet
ing of the Miners union. held last night
it was decided by a vote of approx
mately 900 to 200 to declare the strike
off. This is the direct result of recent
vigorous efforts of the mine managers
and influential people of business to
settle the trouble.
The strike has lasted eight months
and twenty-One days 1t has cost the
company fully four million dollars be-
sides the cost of the labor organiZa-
tions of the country which have contri-
buted funds not to mention fully a
dozen human lives. The union claimed
1900 members when the strike began
and the vote shows the decrease, chief
ly by migration to other camps, but
largely by Withdrawals of men now at
work here.
