Ready for the Next.

A certain eminent judge who was re-
Gently reelected, when he was asked
about the facility with which he turn
ed from one case to another, replied
that he had learned that from what he
saw at a baptism of colored people
when he was boy. The weather was
very cold, so that to immense the can
didates they were obliged to cut away
the ice. 1t befell that when one of the
female converts was dipped back in
the water. the cold made her squirm
about. and in a moment she had slip
ped from the preachers hands and was
down the stream under the Ice. The
preacher, however, was not disconcert-
ed. Looking up with perfect calmness
at the crowd on the bank, he saidi

Single Men Die Young.

Germans are VIGOROUSLY fond of sta
tistics-whether those immortalized by
Mr.. Balfour or not-and a certain DIR.
Schwartz has just published in Berlin
a little book which absolutely revels in
them. The worthy doctor has studied
the official statistics of length of life,
and has come to the conclusion that, in
order to live long. it is necessary to he
married. Out of every 20 men of 90
years of age 4S are married and % are
bachelors; at 20 the proportions are 27
TO IL, and at so nine to three.
OF course, it may be said that at those
ages there are many more married than
single men. but DR.. Schwartz is ready
for that objection, and replies that be-
tween the ages of 80 and 40 the mortal
1ty among bachelors is q per cent,
while among married men it is only 10
per cent. DR.. Schwartz has proved that
1t is absolutely necessary to be married
II a man wishes to become a centena-
rian, for of fifty proved centenarians
whom the doctor has examined not one
was a bachelor. 1t is true that there
were no married men, either, for all of
the old men were widowers. The facts
are now established. TO live long a
man must be married, and then become
a widOwer at some period of his life,
which has not yet been ascertained.
Evidently, If DR.. Schwartz discovers
the exact length married life should
continue he will have solved the prob.
lem of old age.
But 1t is possible that wives would
not be so complaisant as to leave their
husbands widowers exactly on the right
date, and until some arrangement is
made on this score the science of living
long will never be absolutely exact.

I'm 0Veruorked Brain
Fr0m the Record. Pisrcet0n. Ind.

Determined to rise in his chosen
profession as an educator, Ernest Kem-
per, of Pierceton, Ind, overtaxed him
self mentally and physically. He was
ambitious, his mind was always on
his work From early morn until late
at night he continually poured over his
books.
Burned the candle at both ends"
Few persons. even with the strongest
constitutions, can keep up under such
a strain.
In addition to his studies, Mr.. Kem-
per was teaching school some three
miles from his home. Finally, his
excessive study and the exposure of
going to and from school in all kinds
OF weather undermined his health.
He was taken to his bed with pneu-
monia and his overworked brain al
most collapsed. For several weeks he
was seriously i'll.
Catarrh had taken root in his system
and his mind was in a delicate condi-
ton. He was sent to Colorado where
he spent three months without receiv-
ing any benefit. Then noted special.

AN AUDIENCE WITH M'KINLEY.
Filipino Delegates Given "a Confer
ence In Private.

Washington, Oct. 3.-Agoncillo and Lo-
PEI, the representatives of Aginaldo, the
Philippine insurgent leader, called at the
White house Saturday in company with
General Greene and had private confer
ence with the president.
General T. V. Greene, who came from
the Philippines with them, was present
throughout the interview. While the Fill
ipinos refused to discuss the interview
claiming it to have been to "pay their
respects" it is presumed they informally
talked over their mission, if possible, if
not then to be heard by the commission
as to the attitude and wishes of the in
surgents. No documents were presented.

Oldest Living Authoress.

Undoubtedly Nine. du Bos d'Elbhecq
is the oldest living woman who sup
ports herself by her pen. She is 90
years old, and has outllved husband,
son, grandchildren and friends, and is
now living in a convent at Anglers.
France. Nine. du Bos d ElbhecQ is a
prolific authoress. A list of her books
would fill column of a large news
paper. Some of them were highly sue
cessful, and lie Pere Fargeau" still
cells. Her handwriting remains firm
and legible, and the works which she
now produces are read chiefly by the
peasants and country folks. She began
TO work for the printers at the age OF
20, that is seventy-nine years ago, and
her life ever since has been a regular
one. She has never been very poor and
never very well off. She was elected a
member of the Societe des Gems de Let

DEWEY WILL SEND TWO THERE

Go to Tien Tsin, Where the For
eIgn Fleets Are Gathering-Anx-
iety for the Future.

Washington, Oct. 3.-Secretary Long,
upon advices received at the state de-
partment showing the existence OF threat
ening conditions in China, ordered Ad-
miral Dewey to send two warships i'm
mediately from Manila, to point as near
the Chinese capital as it is possible for
a war ship to approach. The vessels Sc
lected are the Baltimore and the Petrol.
This action shows conclusively the
concern felt by the administration at
the existing condition of affairs in the
Celestial empire. 1t would seem to indi-
cate that more sensational information
had been received from Minister COnger
than the authorities have made public.
The state department has the follow
ing cablegram from Minister Conger at
Pelin:
There is no serious danger yet, but
considerable anxiety is felt for the flu
ture. The foreign fleets are assembling
at Tien Tsin. Some of the ministers are
ordering marines to Pekin for legation
guards.

list from Cleveland treated him without
avail, and then a hospital in Chicago
was tried, but all absolutely without
benefit. Finally his physician recon-
mended DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People, and from the first box he
began to improve. When he had taken
nine boxes he was completely cured.
This famous blood and nerve medicine
had accomplished what all his former
expensive treatment failed to accom-
plish. Mr.. Kemper says his catarih
has entirely left him: he is strong
again and weighs nine pounds more
than he ever did. He gives the pills
the entire credit. He is starting teach
ing again and feels abundantly able to
continue the work. To prove that
the above is true in every respect, Mr..
Kemper made an affidavit as follows:

SUNDAY FILLED WITH UPROAR.
Arrests Were Numerous. and over IA
Score Were Injured in the Fights
The Police Charged on the Mob

New York, Oct. "a dispatch from
Paris says
Revisionists and anti-revisionists seem
to be spelling for fight. Captain Drey-
fus, whether guilty or innocent, has GER
tainly caused a veritable cyclone of pas
sion to be let loose. Paris was in a tur-
MOL all Sunday. Crowds scufliing, up
roar and arrests was the program of the
last u hours At this moment the
mounted republican guards are patrolling
certain parts of the city and all of the
police are on the alert.
About a score of people are said to
have been seriously wounded in the var
ious free fights which have broken the
monotony of the Partisan Sunday. In
one quarter alone over 40 arrests have
been made. OF these l3 have been kept
and the others liberated.
Prominent Men Arrested.
Among the latter is Francis de Pres
enze, one of the first authorities on for
eign politics in France, and leading
writer in the Temps. With him were ar
rested NJ. Ernest Vaughan, director of
the Aurore, and NJ. Morhardt, another
of the Temps editorial staff.
All three were to have addressed a
meeting in favor of revision in the Drey-
! fus case. This manifestation was announc-
ed to be held in the Sale Wagram. When
Nj. de Presence and his colleagues arrived
at the meeting place they found it shut
and surrounded by a strong Gordon Of
police, busily engaged in keeping back a
crowd, variously estimated at numbering
from $1,000 to 10000 persons.
In spite of the protests of M. de Pres
enze's party, who had paid the rent of the
hall, the police refused admission to any
