Foul
Catarrh.

Catarrh is one of the most obstinate
diseases, and hence the most difficult
to get rid OF.
There is but one way to cure it.
The disease is in the blood, and all the
sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
in the world can have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe-
cifc cures Catarrh permanently, foriS is
the only remedy which can reach the
disease and force it from the blood.
Mr.. B. P. McAllister, of Harrodsburg,
Ky., had Catarrh for years. He writes:

BAzaINE IN MEXICO.
Rh Vigorous Policy Did Much to Restore
the French Prestige.

Mrs. Sara " Stevenson contributes e
the January Century an article on Maxi
milian's Empire, one of the series Of pa
! pers on the French Intervention. Mrs
Stevenson says:
In October 1868, the rcins Of power, Sc
loosely held by General Forey, at last
passed into flrmer hands. General Bazaine
took command OF affairs. 1t was high
time. The Juarists, proftting by the long
respite afforded them, were reorganizing
in the interior and were threatening The
daily stage was attacked on its way to the
coast as often as not. Highwaymen tore
up the rails Of the Paso del Macho rail
road, attacked the train and killed passen
gers. Detachmonts of banditti, called by
courtesy guerrillas, everywhere infested
tho roads, even at the very gates Of the
capital. A picnic was given to us at this
time by some officers of General Bazaine's
staff at wild, beautiful spot, where the
ruins of graceful aqueduct, built by the
Spaninrds. formed the principal attraction.
1t was less than 90 mile ride, yet it was
deemed unsafe TO go without strong es-
cort, although wo and the officers who

General Forey's policy in letting the
regency have its way and in countenanc-
ing reactionary legislation of an aggres-
sive character had discouraged the honest
partiZans of order.
Bazaine handled all these complications
with firmnesS and skill. He compelled the
regency 10 repeal the DEGREES most objec-
tionable to the thinking portion Of the

THE BICYCLE HERO.
James Miehaels Profits From His Las
Race the Largest He Ever Received.

James Michael's Profits From His Last
Race the Largest He Ever Received.
Twenty years ago, when little Eng
lishman was the sensation and almost
hero of the hour in New York because
he had been able for six consecutive days
and nights to walk or dog trot 100 miles,
or more than 600 miles in all, IL was
pointed out by those who were of expert
authority in athletics that endurance and
skill, rather than muscular strength, were
the qualities that won In test of that
kind
ThSy were qualities which enabled little
Rowell to beat men who could easily have
turned him over their shoulders and who
could have lifted much heavier dumbbell
than Rowell could have possibly raised
from the ground. 1t enabled him, too to
take away $50, 900, q sum which no hero
of the walking track ever equaled by q
victory.
On last Thanksgiving day we had an
other illustration of the fact that skill and
endurance count for more than muscular
strength. The modest, almost shy manner
ed, little Welshman, Michael, in the pres
ence of big throng with evident ease beat
a mature man who could in q wrestling
match have easily thrown Michael with
one hand.
This bicycle race has quickened interest
In the wheel here, just as Rowell's victory
stimulated professional walking. Those
who watched Michael declare that he can
only be beaten by another who has the
same endurance and the same remarkable
Judgment in handling the wheel which
enables him to propel it with the precision
and saving of energy which characterize
the perfect machine.
His competitor had twice the strength,
but he had not the skill nor had he the
endurance of that boy. Michael's profits
Will gladden. his heart and that of his

has ever received since he was on this pro.

REGULATED BY STATUTE.
How the Average Bostonian Observes the
Growth of Public Control.

An imaginary Bostonian, on rising In
the morning, finds his whole toilet, his
breakfast and breakfast service under gov
eminent supervision
Nor do this average Bostonian and his
family escape from public control upon
rising from the table. The children are by
law compelled TO go to school, and though
there is an option to attend private
school the city gratuitously furnishes
school and schoolbooks. AS for the father
himself. when he reaches his door he finds
that public servants are girdling his trees
with burlaps and searching his premises
for traces of the gypsy moth. Without stop
ping to reflect that he has not been asked
to permit these public servants to go upon
his property he steps out upon sidewalk
constructed in accordance with public re-
quirements, crosses street paved and
watered and swept by the public and en-
tiers street car whose route speed and
fare are regulated by the public.
Reaching the center of the city, he as
cends to his office by an elevator subject to
public inspection and reads the mail that
has been brought to him from all parts of
the United States by public servants If
the dimness of his Office may cause him to
regret that sunlight appears to be outside
public protection, he may be answered
that by recent provisions the height of
buildings is regulated and the malicious
construction of high fences is prohibited.
III now he leaves his office and goes to some
store or factory in which he owns an in
terest, he finds that for female employees
chairs must be provided, that children
must not be- employed i'm certain kinds of
Work, that dangerous machinery must be
fenced, that fire escapes must be furnished
and probably that the goods produced or
sold must be marked or packed in GER
tain way or must reach n certain stand
ard. Indeed, whatever this mans business
may be, it is almost certain that in one
way or another the public's hand comes
between him and his employee or between
him and his customer. -Professor eugene

HIa DREAM OF GOLD.
Scheme to Dredge the Bottom OF Streams
In Gold Countries.

DR.. Frank III. Morrical of Findlay, o.,
has evolved scheme by which he expects
TO take millions of gold out of tho Klon-
dixie river as soon as the thaw comes next
spring.
DIR. Morrical's plan in brief Is to dredge
the bottom OF streams in the gold produc-
ing countries and scoop up the gold bear
ing sand by the cubic yard. Where the
miners now go through the slow process
of thawing out % feet of ice, slush and
sand in the winter time and dig out earth
or sand TO be washed OF PANIED out in the
following summer, DIR. Morrical will do
all this by machinery in the genial warmth
of summer and i'm less than one-hundredth
Of the time.
He expects to build steamboat like an
ordinary mud scow, and upon this he will
place his engines, which will not only
propel the boat, but do all other opera
tions. Powerful dredging machinery will
be used.
AS the boat advances up the river the
dredge will raise the sand from its bed
The sand will be dumped into suitable
box connected with sluices, and upon il
will be turned stream of water pumped
from the river. The sluice boxes will
catch all the gold, while the sand and
tailings will be carried back into the
river. In this simple manner thousands
of yards of auriferous sand can be raised
and washed in a day.
DIR. Morrical figures that, as the sum-
mer days in Klondike are "a hours of day
light, he can run two or three shifts Of
men and the work will never stop.
In the section where prospectors have
taken up claims extending entirely across
the river bed 1t Is believed their owners
will be glad to contract to have their
claims worked out on shares and 1t will
give them rich deposit right In the sum-
mer time and at rate that they can
never expect to realize in laborious hand
work
A company with $3.50, 600 capital stock
Is to be Incorporated under the laws of
West Virginia to build number of these
boats and have them at the mouth Of the
Yukon by the opening of navigation in
the spring.
An effort will be made to have the plans
protected by patent, both in America and
Canada, SO that the projectors may reap
the full measure Of the profits In their
venture. Already some 500, 900 OF capital
stock has been subscribed. - Cleveland

NO GOLD STATUE.
President Mckinley Has No Intention OF
Posing For One.

The story that President Mckinley Is to
pose for Chicago sculptor, who intends
to make a heroic figure of him in pure
gold, was Indignantly denied at the White
House recently. The president does not
purpose to make an exhibition of himself
to crafty the within of some sensational
lists, and il the artist should call at tho
White House it is not probable that he
would even get an audience with Mr.. Nc.
Kinley.
The idea Of the president of the United
States posing for an allegorical figure is
too suggestive of the actress posing for the
silver statue of Montana exhibited at the
Worlds fair, and the White House officials
so expressed themselves. -Philadelphia
