FRENCH ARMY MORTALITY

\ recent number of lie journal Of
fetal of Paris publishes report of
the minister of war to President Faure
concerning the sanitary condition of
the French army, maintained for a
period of ten years, including 1897
After showing what means Save been
taken to preserve the health of the
garrisons, as well as of the colonial
troops, the report shows that from
the year 1896 to 1897 there were less
deaths in the French army than for
any twelve months in time of peace.
The mortality which was 1855 for
every 1000 in 1875, fell in 1896 and
1897, to $50. Another important point
in the report shows that the garrisons
which cannot be supplied with nat
ural pure water have elaborate and
adequate apparatus for distlling the
liquid in infinite quantities. These
apparatus are portable and are easily
taken with the troops on their me-
noeuvers.

NIGHT AND DAY.

THE PACKERS AT THE BATTLE
OF SANTIAGO DE CUBA WERE
ALL HEROES -THEIR HEROIC
EFFORTS IN GETTING ANlMUNI-
TION AND RATIONS TO THE
FRONT SAVED THE DAY.
=. f. Butler, of pack train No. g..
writing from Santiago de Cuba, on
July 23rd, says: I'VE all had diar-
rhoea in more or less violent form,
and when we landed we had no time
to see a doctor, for it was case of
rush, and rush night and day to keep
the troops supplied with ammunition
and rations, but thanks to Chamber
lain's Collie. Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy, we were able to keep at work
and keep our health: in fact. I sim
cerelv believe that at one critical time
this medicine was the indirect savior
of our army, for if the packers had
been unable to work there would have
been no way of getting supplies to
the front. There were. no roads that
a wagon train could use. Ny comrades
and myself had the good fortune to
lay in a supply of this medicine for
our pack train before we left Tampa
and I know in four cases it absolute
lv saved life"

New Currency Bill Pleases Chairman
of Indianapolis Conference.

Washington May 16.-Mr H. H. Han
ma, chairman of the executive commit
tee representing the Indianapolis mon
etary convention of the boards of trade
and commercial organizations of the
country, speaking of the banking bill Or
dered reported to the house by the
banking and currency committee today
said:
1.-The bill ordered reported favorably to
the lower house of congress by the COM
mittee on banking and currency is a
very substantial, courageous and COM
prehensive recognition of the necessity
for changes in the present law. The
recommendations include the features
of reform sought by the monetary COM
mission in it's report but in some re-
spects by different methods. The bill
seeks to maintain the parity of all mon
eys or currencies to favor silver as the
larger change or market money of the
people to create an issue and redemp-
ton division of the treasury, to put the
burden of the current redemption of the
greenback upon the national banks to
restrict reissue of greenbacks redeemed
by the government except in exchange
for gold, to provide for the cancella-
ton of greenbacks by use of idle gold
in the treasury and to authorize a test
beginning of use of general credit cur
rency by the national banks. 1t is a
great step forward

consumption. Wasted to skeleton;
his lungs a mass of ulceration; his
death was hourly awaited by his doctor

stupor with opium. A friend, thinking
to relieve his terrible cough, gave him
bottle of Brazilian Balm. Seeing its
wonderful effect, the doctor advised its
continued use. Mr.. James soon after
dismissed his doctor, and depended
on the Balm alone. His recovery was
rapid and complete, and in February he
returned to work. His lungs are sound,

The Marias des Cygnes River on o
Higher Rampage Than Usual

L. c. Slime of Ottawa who was in the
city today said: 1.-The water in the
Marias des Cygnes river is higher today
than it has ever been in the history of
the town. 1t has been necessary to re-
move the flooring from the wagon
bridges to save them from washing
away. Communication with the de-
pots north of the river has been stopped
except by boat. Every inch of Forest
park is covered with water
1t has been reported that some
persons who live on the island west of
the town have been drowned but this
is not confirmed. There has not been
a casualty in Ottawa, but the people
who live along the river bank are being
taken from their homes in boats.
The mayor is preparing to call upon
the citizens to feed the people who have
been driven from their homes but we
hope to be able to feed all of them
without asking for outside assistance"
