WARSHIPS' MOVEMENTS
The Iowa and Oregon Are Nearing
Callao

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.-The gunboat
Wilmington sailed today from Norfolk. She
will touch first at San Juan, Porto Rico, and
then proceed to the north coast OF Brazil
where she will enter the Orinoco river and
ascend that stream for distance. This is
the first time an American steamer has
assembled the Orinoco for some time.
The Isla de Luzon and the Isla de Cuba,
two of the vessels sunk by Dewey at Cavite
and raised by Naval Constructor Capps,
have safely made the voyage IRON aMnila
to Hong Kong, and because of their peculiar
fitness for the service, will be kept among
the Philippine islands for some time to come.
The Cincinnati arrived today at Havana.
She is coming north to be repaired at New
York. The Annapolis and Vicksburg have
arrived at St kits. The Scanda has arrived
at Callao, carrying a supply of coal tor the
battleships Oregon and Iowa, which are
closely following her. The battleshlps will
receive instructions at Callao which Will de-
termine their course either to Honolulu or
directly across to the Philippines. The
Abarenda has arrived at Norfolk, where she
will fit out for cruise to Samoa, CARRYING
supply of coal and material for erecting
the docks and fixtures for the new coating
station at Pago Pago. 1t will be several
weeks before she will be ready to leave the
United States.

TAX ON DRUGS
Not Intended to Cover Goods for Pre-
scriptions

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24-The commits
sioner of internal revenue today promul-
gated for the guidance of collectors the
opinion OF Assistant Attorney General Boyd
in regard to the taxability of medical prepa-
rations under schedule b of the act of June
l3, 1898. Later on the following existing
regulations will be amended to conform
Herewith. In the course of his opinion Mr..
Boyd says:
10 draw the distinction more cleary be-
tween medicinal articles or preparations
which hold to be taxable under the pro-
visions of the law and those that are not,
will call attention to a class of preparations
or medicines, samples of which have been
filed with me for examination, and which
in my opinion are not taxable. They are
articles which are put up in bottles, phials,
or other packages, more particularly for the
use OF physicians and pharmacists. They
are such articles as anistretoccic serum,
anti tetanic serum, anti diphtheretic serum,
and many othera of like character. The
articles are not put up the manner or style of
patent, trademark or proprietary medicines
in general, nor are they advertised to the
public upon package or otherwise as speci-
iics or remedies for particular diseases, or
claiming special merit.
The names upon the bottles, phias or
other packages containing these prepara-
tions are simply medicinal or pharmaceuti-
cal designations used to indicate the class
Of medicines to which they belong and are
for the guidance of physicians, druggists
and pharmacists, through whom they are
dealt out to customers as prepared prescrip-
tions. These articles have the technical
medical name upon the bottle or upon the
package and also the formula by which they
are prepared. There is no exclusive pro-
rrietary right claimed in them, but any
pharmacist or manufacturing druggist has
the right to make them after the formula
given, and there is no retail price or value
stated on bottle or package containing them.
"It might make the distinction still more
plain to say that the class ON medicines
which, in my opinion are taxable under the
provisions of the law, are such as l have
described above, which go to the consumer
in the unbroken package in which they are
put up by the proprietor, manufacturer or
compounder, with name, disease and direc
tions for use without the Intervention or a
prescription of a pharmacist or physician.
While, on the other hand, the provisions OF
the act do not reach such medicinal articles
or preparations as are put up under pharma
ceutical or classifying names for the use of
physicians in their practice or of pharma-
cists or druggists in their trade.

SOME BEGGARS GAIN WEALTH
Examples of European Mendicants
Who Left Fortunes

The wealthiest known living professional
beggar, Simon Oppasich, an Austrian, was
born without feet or hands, and sympathy
for his intirmities brought him a large for
tune in the shape of aims. In 1880, when he
was At years old, he had saved Ell, 1000, and
in 1883 he had increased his fortune by spec
Clation to f25, 900 in cash and about f4O 900
in Trieste and Parenzo estates Since then
he has quadrupled his wealth by specula-
ton on the bourse.
When Tori, well-known italian beggar,
died last year, bank books, securities, gold
and silver and other articles to the value of
upward of fS0,000 were found in his rooms.
His heirs were two nephews, who had been
existing in state of miserable poverty for
years.
A beggar who died in Auxerre, France, in
1895, was found to have bonds to the value
of 100000 francs in an old trunk and 400
bottles of wine of the vintage of $780,
The French seem to be a generous nation,
for in the same year an old woman who lived
in a wretched garret in the Rue de Sevres,
Paris, died, leaving government securities
representing an annual income of f2l, all
made by begging.
A heggar named Gustav Marcelin of
Avignon died in November, 1892, and left
100000 in French government bonds, to be
divided equally between the city and the
Bureau di Renaissance, the great French
charity society.-London Mail.
