OVATION TO GEN. LEE.
Admitting Thousands Throng the
Stations Along the Route

Admitting Thousands Throng the
Stations Along the Route.
Waycross, Ga, April 13-Every sta
ton along the route of Consul Gen.
eral Lees special train lavished ap-
preciative tributes upon him. The
country for miles in the interior fur
nished ardent admirers who came in
carts, wagons and on horseback.
Ladies filled the car with handsome
bouquets accompanied by missives
expressive of their admiration.
where is Lee?" was the cry from
Tampa to this place, and until he made
his appearance the crowds could not
control their Impotence. Whenever
the general stepped to the rear plat
form outbursts of applause greeted
him. Before reaching Jasper, Fla,
three kilograms We're received on the
train urging him to make his appear
ance so that the people could see him.
Arriving there the local company Of
state troops and a score Of Confederate
veterans with wild crowd met him.
"A thousand welcomes to you, Gen.
Lee, as a brave man, thousand well
comes to our old Confederate COM
rade; ten thousand welcomes to you,
sir, for your admirable official course
as our consul at Havana" said one of
the grayheaded men. II thank you,
SIR said Lee, ''for your kind express
sions. I thank the American people
for the commentator they have
shown my administration as your
consul general at Havana I have
never really known until to-day how
united the people are in sanctioning
my course"
In the afternoon he endeavored to
get some sleep but it was impossible.
The crowds would besiege the train
and even attempt to force the doors of
the private car in their frantic efforts
to see the popular general. One aged
veteran said: Il am sixty-two, but all
l want you to do is to sound the bugle
and I will be with you saddle and
boots. Don't put it off too long, gen.
eral; let us go and haul down the
Spanish flag" This sentiment was
general all along the line.

Bottling of Tears in Persia.

In Persia the bottling of tears con-
stitutes an important part of the
obsequies of the dead. AS the mourners
are sitting round and weeping, the
one with a piece of cotton wool or
master of ceremonies presents each
one with a piece of cotton wool or
sponge, with which to wipe away the
tears. This cotton wool or sponge is
afterwards squeezed into bottle, and
the tears were preserved as a powerful
and eficacious restorative for those
whom every other medicine has failed
to revive. It is to this custom that
allusion is made in the eighth verse of
the ffty-sixth Psalm: Put thou my
tears into thy bottle"

NASAL CATARRH,

There is no more prevalent diseas.
than catarrh of the nose passages
The reason of this is not far to seek
1t is mainly because the lining mem.
brane is subjected to cold air, hot air

ences the atmosphere can exert: an6

famed and thickened But is ali this
serious matter? To certain extent
yes. The chief office, be it noted. O,
the interior of the nose is to strain ano
warm the air before passing it into the
lungs. To do this work effectuall,
there are situate within each nostri
three sets of bones covered with mu.
cous membranes), which are rolled I'D.
on themselves like scrolls. Through
these scrolls it is really that the all
has to pass. BY far more air is thus
warmed and strained than would 9th.
erwise be possible. These bony scrolls
are associated with the sense of smell
and in some animals, such, for exam.
pie, as the dog, they are much more
deliberately developed than in men: and
thus we find the sense of smell much
keener in the former. What is catarrh
An inflammation of a mucous mem.
brane, accompanied with more or less
discharge, is perhaps a good popular
definition. Sometimes the discharge
is mucous, and whitish or nearly COL
orless; and, again, it is purulent and
yellowish, and sometimes streaked with
blood. The condition known as "a.
tarrh is one in which the tissues be-
come permeated with extraneous cells
and in which the tissue elements them
selves seem to have but one potential
property, viz, that of dying. Catarrh
OF the nose passages may extend along
the passages until it has produced ca
tarrh Of the throat. Catarrh of the
throat, in turn, it is alleged. NAV ex-
tend down ward until it cause hron-
chial or gastric disease, and even in
the end consumption. The ease with
which catarrh may frequently be cured
renders it all the more remarkable that
so many should be troubled with it so
long, for we have known it to last
for many years. If an absolute cure
is to be effected, obviously the mucous
membrane must be cleared of inflam-
matory deposits, when the thickenins
will quickly vanish. s

RECENT INVENTIONS,

A southerner has designed a new re-
silent tire for wagons, which is made
of an inner section of rubber tubing
surrounded by layer of rubber-coat-
ed linen or canvas and covered by a
vulcanized, comparatively hard, rub
Der tube, which is, in turn, covered by
an outer rubber tube.
Acetylene gas is to be used for the
purpose of initiating marine buoys and
floats, the dry calcium carbide being
placed in vessel in the upper portion
Of the buoy, to which small quantity
of water is admitted as it sinks, caus-
ing sufficient gas to generate to lift
| the buoy in it's proper position again.
Pennsylvania woman has invented
| fly escape for attachment to window
screens, which is formed of wire cone,
with the large end connected with a
passage along the bottom of the screen,
in which the flies crawl and pass out
through the small end of the cone,
thus clearing the house of the insects.
A noiseless and more efficient fame
for incandescent gas burners is pro-
duced by giving the air and gas a ro-
tary motion to thoroughly mix them
as they are admitted to the bottom of
the burner, the mixed air and gas be-
ing heated by means of corrugated
rings in the burner, which draw heat
from the flame above.
Carpet sweepers are being made with
a brush mounted on a flexible shaft.
and surrounding circular disk to re-
volve toward the dust collector in the
center of the disk as the sweeper is
pushed along. motion being impaired
to the flexible shaft by a system OF
gears connected with the central
wheels; on which the sweeper runs.
Envelopes can not be tempered with
to remove their contents in the mails
without revealing the theft If new
safety device is used, which consists
OF piece of material to be inserted in
the envelope directly under the adj
dress, which becomes damp and blurs
the writing when the back of the en-
velope is steamed or soaked to open
the flap.
Sunken iron ships, which are too
deeply submerged to permit of the de-
scent of divers to make connections
for raising them, can be lifted hy
means of powerful electromagnets at
tached to lifting ropes, the magnets be-
ing lowered until they strike the
wreck, when an electric current is APP
piled through wires to cause them to
grip the boat.

saw several of his cabinet advisers
carly i'll the day but there
WINS No Cabinet NTcatfnr

SOAAS Ia LIZ NAAJ ONI SAClC
Was No Cabinet Meeting.
The message left the White House
shortly before noon in order to reach.
congress promptly on it's assent bling,
and, this done, the president joined his
family at lunch with evident satisfac-
ton at having the tremendous strain
and burden OF recent days in a meas
ure removed. There was an aspect Of
holiday gaiety surrounding the White
House, as Easter Monday was OBJ
served as usual by the egg-rolling
gathering Of thousands Of children on
the grounds in the rear of the execu-
tive mansion. The marine band fur
nished music for the youngsters.
The effect Of the message down
town was, on the whole, quieting.
Cabinet officers, of course, expressed
their complete and most hearty APP
proyal of the message. This view was
circles.
The Spanish minister, Senior Polo,
remained at the legation during the
day, sending and receiving many dis
patches and comforting with his adj
visers. He cabled the entire presi-
dents message to Madrid, except only
IAC A1oCO1lS01 lSlcICuCc " OCA. Oldut 5
message, Texas, etc. The minister said
he must decline to make the slightest
public allusion to the message, as any
remark from him would be inconsis-
tent with his position. 1t is known,
however, that Senor
Polo Is Kecnly Sensitive
to the language of the message. What
it's effect will be upon his service here
is not known, for no word has yet
come as to the effect Of the message
upon the authorities at Madrid. Up
to last night Senior Polo had received
no instructions to withdraw, nor was
there any intimation of his instruc-
lions. At the other embassies and le-
cations the message aroused the
greatest interest. But it cannot be
said that it was received with satisfac-
ton. No new diplomatic phases of the
questions developed at the state de-
partment. Secretary Sherman said he
would not be surprised if the Madrid
cable report proved true that Minister
Woodford was about to leave Madrid.
At the same time the state department
was without advices that this step
actually had been taken. The war and
navy departments continued their
active preparations. While eventuali-
ties are being prepared for the senti-
ment in army and navy circles is that
war is not so imminent as it seemed
to be few days ago.
