Captain slssbee, In command OF the
Maine at the time of tho disaster, was
examined on the 3lst Of March. He re-
pcatcd his opinion thatsthe Maine was
destroyed by q mine either temporary
or permanent. He thought It had been
very large mine. but in his opinion, no
larger than could be planted near the
vessel at any time In broad daylight,
and under direct vision with the means
available In Havana for that purpose.
He thought twelveSmen, having mutual
confidence and preserving secrecy could
have planted It and thatsit could have
been done while the ordinary discipline
and watchfulness was observed on the
ship! A ship moored In the harbor
would swing around to given point
where a mine might be exploded. He

The Racket is coming in for its
share Of this years prosperity. It's
constantly increasing trade has grown
to such great proportions that addi-
tiOnal room became an imperative
necessity. They were particularly
cramped In their hardware and har-
ness department, having thousands Of
dollars worth Of stock on hand that
could not be unpacked or displayed. As
a result Of this condition an archway
has been cut through into the north
room heretofore occupied by the feed
and flour departments. The hardware
and harness departments have been
moved into this room and I'LL 1t chuck
full. The middle room will continue
TO be used by the grocery and queens
ware departments, with -four and feed
10 the wareroom TO the rear. This
makes possible an elegant display Of
queensware. There are no changes to
be made In the south room, where the
dry goods, notions, boots, shoes, hats
and caps and clothing are kept.

immense business, its continued sue.

The same may be said of feeding

The King OF Thieves.

The Viennese police have reason to
pride themselves on the capture of an
individual who is regarded among the
light-fngered gentlemen of the Cont
nent as the King of Thieves. This
man appears to have possessed
magic power over bolts and bars,
and no less than 800 hurglaries have
been scored to his account during the
last few years. He affected somewhat
the line of policy adopted by Robin
Hood, Claude Duvnl and Dick Turpin,
for he exhibited at times the traits of
chivalry and generosity which are
populaly supposed in fiction to have
marked the characters of some of the
historical knights of the highway. He
burgled, not always with the sordid
object OF stealing, but from profes-
sional pride which made him overcome
obstacles. The more difficult the
bolts and bars, the more he desired to
win his way through them. When he
had succeeded he would leave card
or written compliment to the lock-
smith, and go away with empty hands.
But his ambition has overleaped it
self, and he has landed in cell, which
is no wonder, seeing how the actions
even of chivalrous burglar are liable
to be looked upon with suspicion by
the police. Westminster Gazette.

Guipure Laco a Favorite.

Irish guipure is the lace most in
favor this season, one reason undoubt-
edly being the why it can be fitted to
the arms or the figure without show
ing any joining. A fashionable-look-
ing gown, where it is combined with
light tafeta-which, by the way, is
dernier cri for day toilets just now
has the skirt made of the taffeta, with
a deep hem and two tucks Of the same
depth, with an interval between each
one as wide as the tuck itself. The
waist consists OF guipure coat with
fitted basques, beginning from the
hips, the front of the bodice being
fastened on the side with two car
bochons of strauss diamonds, another
couple on the other side giving the
similitude OF double-breasted jacket.
The guipure is cutin an upward curve
i'll front, running around to the back
under the arms, the uppoc part of the
neck being of the white tatfeta, orna-
mented with incrustations of the gui-
pure. The sleeves have caps of the
taffeta, with guipure covering the
arms to the Same line as that ON the
waist, so that the silk and the lace on
bodice and sleeves both seem like o
continuation OF each other.

Army and Navy Surgeons.

In the United States army things
in regard to relatIe medical rank are
in an entirely satisfactory condition.
The rank of medical officers from o
second lieutenant to brigadier gen.
eral is clearly defined, and doctor is
treated exactly as are the officers OF
the same rank in other parts of the
service. The best Of feeling obtains
in our army between the line and the
staff otficers;. doctors, of course, al.
ways being members of the staff.
This is not so, unfortunately, in our
navy. We think before the war is
over things will be very much i'm
proved there, perhaps whollyrighted,
and engineers and doctors will have
rank conferred upon them which will
cause them to be treated with the
same respect as are those who are,
strictly speaking, naval officers. Ger.
tainly in the navy, even more than in
the army, the doctor shares the dan.
gers of the fight fully with his nom.
inally more watlike comrade or su.
perior, although he is deprived of the
satisfaction of firing back.-Post

Tbe Hurdeio;is Kea:

Scientists have been some time
studying the habits Of the bird known
as the kea, or the mountain parrot of
New Zealand, which has acquired the
remarkable habit of attacking sheep
and tearing open their backs l'y
means Of its sharp and powerful benk
for the purpose of abstracting the
kidney fat, which appears to be es-
teemed as a luxurious diet. 1t has
been suggested that this peculiar hab-
it or instinct was developed by the
bird getting the fnt from the skins of
sheep that had been slaughtered. but
this solution is not very satisfactory,
rs there appears nothing to connect
the fat on the skins Of sheep with
live animals. A more probable solu:
tion of the origin Of the habit is as
follows: In the hilly districts of New
Zealand there is a great abundance of
white moss or lichen which exactly
resembles a lump Of white wool, ut
the roots Of which are found small
white fatty substances, supposed by
some to be the seeds Of the plant, and
by others to be O grub which infes.-
ed 1t, and these are a favorable food
Of the kea, Probably the bird. misled
by It's resemblance. commenced an ex-
ploration in the backs Of sheep, and
this proving satisfactory originated
the new habit. In any event 1t Is Ger,
tainly one of the strangest and most
peculiar instincts to be found in the
whole range Of natural history.-Lon'

AIDED BY MRS. PINKHAM.

Mrs. W. E. PAXTON, youngstown,

gle to regain health after the birth Of
her little girl:
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-It is with
pleasure that add my testimony to
your list, hoping that it may induce
others to avail themselves of your val
liable medicine.
"After the birth of my little girl,
three years ago, my health was very
poor. I had leucorrhea badly, and q
terrible bearing-down pain which
gradually grew worse, until could do
no work. Also had headache nearly
all the time, and dizzy feelings. Men
situations were very profuse, appear
ing every two weeks.
"Itook medicine from good doctor,
but it seemed to do no good. 1 was
becoming alarmed over my condition,
when I read your advertisement in o
paper. I sent at once for a bottle of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
ponnd, and after taking two-thirds of
the bottle felt so much better that /
send for two more. After using three
Sottles I felt as strong and well as any
Nne.
81 think it is the best medicine fo,
female weakness ever advertised, and
recommend it to every lady I meet suf-
fering from this trouble"
,Msternitygis wonderful experience
aid many women approach it wholly
unprepared. Childbirth under right
conditions need not terrify women.
The advice of Mrs. Pinkham is freely
offered to all expectant mothers, and
her advice is beyond question the most
valuable to be obtained. If.Mrs. Pax
ton had written to Mrs. Pinkham be
fore recopfnernent she would have been
savedhachsufering. Mrs. Pinkham's
