Facts of Interest About the New Sub
 Marine Boat.

The submarine Torpedo boat Hol- land is a model of compactness, what ever her efficiency may prove to be. When under water she is to be pro- pelled by electric motors fed by stor- age batteries, and will probably make from six to eight miles an hour.
 The batteries, which weight 45,00C pounds, consist of cells of steel, GOV cred with lead to protect them from the action of the sulphuric acid, and were made as light and compace as possible

BREAD UPON THE WATERS.

A rising young physician of West
 Philadelphia lately recovered his fan cee's stolen watch in a remarkable way. The timepiece was present from the doctor, and was a beautiful specimen
 of the jewellers art, the cases being blue enamel. thicllly set with diamonds and pearls. On the inside of the case was a picture of the giver. photographed di- rectly on the case. and the engraved words: From Ralph to Grace Thanksgiving night the young couple attended a theater. and at the close of the play joined the merry throng that
 was on Chestnut street. Several times
 up and down were made, and t was very late when they arrived at the young woman's home. In order to be sure of the time the girl felt for her watch, which she usually wore hooked on her coat, and found it gone Of course she was mortified. and started tu cry, but the doctor told her she prob- ably lost it, and that an advertisement would bring its return. The lost and found column was freely used. but with out any result. The doctor had lost

They are contained in a space six by thirteen feet, and only two and a half feet deep. This is looked upon by ex- perts as a remarkable achievement, for the storage battery room in the Wal dorf-Astoria, containing cells of twice the power of those on the Holland boat, is twenty-five by forty feet. The batteries on the boat develop normally about fifty horse power for six hours, or can be made to yield 15O horse pow CT for one hour should it be desir- able to make spurt.
 One of the interesting things about the boat is that she charges her own batteries. When sailing on the sur face she is propelled by gasoline en- zine, and she can carry enough fuel, in the form of gasoline, for a cruise of 1000 miles. The engine can be connected with dynamo on board to charge her storage batteries, which can be charged in an hour. The same dynamo, when the boat is under wa ter, is used to run the propeller, being fed from the batteries previously charged by it. Thus, with a supply of fuel on board the boat is independent of the shore or other base of supplies, differing in this respect from electric launches which must return periodi- cally to some station to be charged. Another type of boat has been planned for use in connection with shore sta- tions, which will be provided with storage batteries only. These will be much smaller in size and their radius of action much more limited
 It does not seem to be generally understood that the boat which is ok &o built for the inventor on his own ac- count. The Baltimore boat is being constructed under an arrangement with the government and with the understanding that if it makes good the guarantees of the inventor, three more boats of the same kind will be ordered.

SILVER MEN REPLY.

:, Washington, January 2l.-Chairman
Towne of the silver Republican COM
mittees, and A. j. Warner of the bime-
tallic league, have sent a reply to the
banking and currency committee rela-
tive to the application of Messrs. War
ner and Towne for hearing before the
committee. The committee said that it
would hear the gentlemen in support of
any bill for which they might assume
the authorship and responsibility. The
reply in part says: So far as we are
aware this Is the first time that in a
matter Of SO much Importance, great
congressional committee engaged in Civ
ing hearings In proposition before it has
refused to accord full and fair hearing
to both sides. Not to our. knowledge has
it ever before been required as condlt-
ion precedent to being heard that each
witness should, have had his own indi.
vidual bill introduced and referred to
the committee. 1t seems clear to us that
such requirement is wholly unreason
ably.
4 The sole purpose Of the application
was to furnish way whereby the coun-
try at large might learn the views held
by that numerous body of citizens who
oppose any and all plans to substitute
bank paper for government currency or
to commit the country more thoroughly
to the gold standard.

Like Goldsmith s parson who
Tried each art, reproved each dull delay,
Allured to brighter worlds and led the
way,
great preachers throughout the country
have been the most untiring and earnest
in telling the truth about Paine's celery
compound, in urging sick people to use
it, and at the same time they themselves
have employed the great remedy in their
own homes with results that have
steadily kept up their faith in its health
giving powers.
compound stands alone as the one remedy
that is freely used in the homes not only
of clergymen, but of all literally as well
as professionally educated men: physi-
clans. lawyers, school teachers and others,
while every other remedy purporting to
accomplish equal results is promptly
shown the door.
No class of men have the public good
so disinterestedly at heart as clergymen !;
none others see SO intimately the affairs
of SO many homes. 1t Is their business
to know the sad side, sorrows and suffer-
tnes. Asssoonfdant, oonfessor and COM
forter they learn the truth as even the
physician often fails to do.

THE MARYLAND DEADLOCK.

Annapolis, Md, January 2l-The prin-
cipal features of the senatorial contest
today xas the disappearance of ex-
Senator Parran and Col. Mullikin from
the list of those receiving votes. One of
those who heretofore voted for the latter
went to Major Shaw, giving him gain
of one vote over yesterday The other
went to Judge McComas together with
the three from South Maryland, who yes
terday voted for Mr.. Parran, resulting in
a gain of four votes for the candidate
from the sixth congressional district.
The change of heart upon the part of the
Parran contingent is attributed to the
influence of Postmaster General Gary.
Gen. Shryock and ex-Congressman Find
lay held their own and both are now re-
garded as available timber for second
choice in the event of the withdrawal of
either or both the leaders. The impress
sion is gaining ground that the only
possible solution of the contest lies In
such withdrawal.

Dyspeptios and nervous, sickly persons,

how closely their debility, rches and pains

general health and constitution. This Is
the grand mission of Paine's celery com

1t cannot be repeated too often that the
stomach Is the fountain which supplies
every part of the body. If the stomach
is sick, the brain, heart, liver, bowels
and kidneys are all sick. The trouble
may all be felt in one spot; 1t may be in
the stomach itself, or, it may be in the
brain, or in a rheumatic muscle. 1t will
be felt in the weakest place. Paine S
celery compound is fully competent to
correct all such disordered conditions OF
the stomach, and to restore healthy,
hearty tone that will enable 1t to meet
every demand made upon 1t by hard
worked braiI, heart and nerves.

food is called, but acids and poisonous

CABINET TALKS OVER MATTERS.

Washington, January 21.-The cabinet
today discussed the conduct of the bu-
reau of American republics and passed
in review congressional criticisms
lodged against the institution. 1t was
the general opinion of the cabinet that
the bureau was deserving of the earnest
support OF the administration.
There was some talk over the prospect
of the Hawaiian annexation treaty and
over the reception to be given to Presi-
dent Dole. Cuba came in tor a share of
attention. The situation: was believed
not to warrant any present change in the
policy followed by our government. Sew
eral pending appointments were also
considered. A successor to the commits
sioner of patents Butterworth it is said
will be named in q few days. 1t is
believed that the place will be given to
a New England man. There are two
active candidates for the position,
Messrs. A. P. Greeley, at present the as
sistant commissioner, who has been act
ing. commissioner during the illness OF
Mr.. Butterworth. and Nathaniel Il.
Frothingham of Massachusetts. who was
the assistant commissioner under Mr..
Simonds. Mr.. Greeley is from New
Hampshire and has been in the office for

Bad for Speedy Settlement.

Boston, January 21.-While on the sur
face the strike situation in the cotton IN
dustry in number of the manufacturing
centres shows little change tonight, there
is apparently and under current of unrest
which denotes that the strain on the en-
ployes side at least is beginning to be
surely felt. The joint committee on be-
half of the strikers at New Bedford,
issued an appeal tonight for financial as
sistance, and at BIddeford arrangement
are being made for the issuance of soup
to the non-union help out OF work. The
New Bedford committee, in its appeal, |,
points out the fact that the mills con-
cerned in the strike paid an average
dividend last year of 7.6 per cent. two OF
them paying nothing and two 10 and 10
per cent respectively.
In connection with the fning system
the weavers at the Acushnet mill were
happily disappointed today, for on secur-
ing their pay, they found that there
should be no deduction, and therefore
there was no opportunity for complaint.
The strike at Fall River also appears to
be advancing toward critical stage and
the minor strikes which have occurred
there lead to the belief THAI the labor
leaders may not be able to hold back the
operatives in that city and that break
NAV occur there at any time. which will
not only affect the thirty Thousand in
that city but every mill city in New Eng
land. The strike among the spoilers at
the Narragansett mill in Fall River today
shows the growing discontent in that
city.
