Escaped MOntauk Hospital.

New York, Oct. 3, 1898.
Messrs. Wells, Richardson & Co.:
Gentlemen-If anybody in the whole
regiment of rough riders had chance
to observe the general weakened con-
dition of the men when they started
back to the United States, as compared
with their stalwart condition when
they sailed from San Antonio on June
s, L think I had.
Oklahoma is generally regarded as a
healthy climate, and last May, when L
left there, 1 hardly knew what sickness
meant. Earlier in life, however, 1 had
lived in the east, and after month in
service knew that what 1 needed in
my general rundown condition, was a
nerve tonic. 1 knew if my nerves were
fixed up there would be no trouble
about my general health as soon as I
got away from the army.
1 also knew the position that Paine
celery compound occupied, although L
had not had occasion to use it much
myself. 1 got a few bottles of it and
began to take it and give it to few of
my acquaintance.
1t actually seemed 20 build up my
nervous constitution almost as rapidly
as the southern climate had torn it
down. The same thing was true of the
other men l gave it to.
Unless L had found this tonic to re-
store my nerves feel sure that [ would
have gone to the hospital at Montauk
Point, and L might have shared the
fate OF many other poor fellows whose
impoverished condition did not yield to
the doctors treatment.
1t gives me pleasure to recommend
Paine's celery compound as the best
remedy ever sold in America.

Nearly Dead from the Fever.
st. Louis, Sept. 20, 1898.

81 14OulSJ OSpl- - 1910.
Messrs. Wells, Richardson & Co.:
Gentlemen-Nobodyc can blame me Of
being disloyal if 1 say that Paine's eel
cry compound has done more for me
than any other person or thing since
1 left Silver City to join the rough
riders.
1t has pulled together the scraps of
a stalwart man, brought me around
from all the bad effects of the Cuban
climate, and braced me up until am
in better health than l have been in
ten years. My friends in the west
think that I am nearly dead from the
army fever they called calientura in
Cuba. When 1 get back to Silver City
they will be as surprised as I sometimes
feel myself. 1 had pretty good nerves
before 1 enlisted. They went 70 pieces
while we were lying out in the trenches
at Santiago, lodging bullets. 1 began
to feel feverish from the day we got to
Siboney. When the Mausers sang about
our ears noticed that 1 was getting
nervous.
I found myself scarcely able to walk
after the battle of San Juan.
L got worse until 1 got back to Mon
tauk Point, where 1 got a bottle Of
Paine's celery compound from another
fellow in the regiment. L saw several
of the rough riders taking it.
with some OF them, as with me, IL
seemed to take the place of both food
and medicine, for the systems of many
of the men needed tOning up before
they could again eat as they had done
before they left this country.
L don't know much about medicines.
We don't need much medicine in New
Mexico. But 1 know Paine's celery
compound has fixed me up until 1 feel
able to take the road for home, where
I expect to tell every one who mentions
nerves to me about my case.

Brought Him Back to Life.
New York, Sept. 80, 1898.

Messrs Wells, Richardson & Co.:
Gentlemen might have broken
down sooner in the campaign about
Santiago if 1 had had time to realize
what was the matter with me before
the Spaniards surrendered.
God knows [ broke down soon enough
as it was, and it was as great a sur
prise to me as it was to the other boys
who knew me at home. But the Span
iards kept US busy, when we were not
busy on our own account getting ready
for the big fight. That 1 was a mem
Der of the Roosevelt regiment shall
always be proud, and the fights at Las
Quasimas and at San Juan Hill will
be things to talk about for many a
year.
But L would not have lived to talk
about them if 1 had not found some
thing to brace my nerves up again after
the seige 1 had of it at Santiago with
dysentery and slow fever. l got so [
could hardly shoot, and felt like l did
not care whether l did or not.
lost 20 pounds in weight and lot
more than that in spirit, if you can
measure a fellows spirit that way. Half
a dozen Mauser bullets could not have
made a worse mess OF me tnan the
Cuban climate and the mud in the San
tiago trenches did. AS soon as L found
[ was sick and my nerves were all gone
l hunted for tonic. L found it on the
way back north, when l got some of
the Paine's celery compound saw
other men using.
How it braced me up my picture will
show better than anything else. 1t is
the greatest nerve restorer that can
be made, for it brings all the force
there is in a man to the surface.

OUR COAST IMPROBABLE.
No Foreign warship Gould Enter the
Harbors

Cleveland, o., Nov. 15.-Colonel ]. A.
Smith, United States government engi-
neer, has just returned here, after
months absence, largely spent in in
specting the Atlantic coast defenses
and especially the harbor defenses at
New York, Boston and Portland, Me.
"Our harbor defenses," said Colonel
Smith, while not yet completed, are
sufficiently far advanced that it would
be suicidal for any warship of a for
eign country to enter any of these har-
bors if we objected. A great deal of
work is yet necessary to be done, but
work is being pushed forward rapidly.
very few people have any idea of
the power or accuracy of our coast de-
lenses. Our defenses are as good as
any in the world for their purpose. No
better can be found anywhere The
works are being rapidly completed and
it would not be great while until the
coast is well nigh impregnable."

RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA.
International Commission Is Discuss
ing Tariff Concessions.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Sir Wilfred
Laurier, premier of Canada, and Sir
James Winter, premier of Newfound-
land, arrived today to take their seats
in the Anglo-American joint commits
sion. Mr.. T. Jefferson Coolidge of Bos-
ton also came on, thus completing the
American membership. The commits
sion held a brief session at II o'clock
and then gave way to meetings of the
British and American members separ-
ately. These separate conferences were
for the purpose Of going over
the grounds on which reciproc-
ity can be discussed. Attention
is now centered almost ex-
clusively on this topic. No schedules
have been exchanged, but it has been
considered best to take each part sep
arately and discuss the possibilities of
tariff concessions on it. 1t is realized
by members of the commission that
this is the most important branch of
the work before them, and one on.
which the success or failure of the
work on other branches depends, to a
large extent.

MAIL CONTRACT CONSPIRACY.
Attempt of Bidders to Defraud the
Government

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE postoffice
department has discovered the exist
ence of a combine of speculative mail
contract bidders looking to control of
the bids and evasion of the 50-cent war
tax imposed on their contract bonds.
Some weeks ago the department was
approached with a view to ascertain
ing its attitude on such organizations
and prompt notice was given that they
would be regarded as illegitimate.
Notwithstanding this a considerable
number of these bidders or agents have
formed an arrangement for opening
their own bids, selecting Ostensibly the
lowest for filing with the department,
suppressing the others and thus also
saving the revenue accruing to the
government from the large number of
competitive bids submitted. Some idea
of the interests involved may be gained
by the fact that under contracts to be
let under the general advertisement OF
Sept 10 last. TO which the organiza-
ton of these bidders Immediately looks,
over 100000 bids ordinarily would be
submitted for contracts for carrying
mails on routes in Ohio. Indiana, Hi
nois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Iowa and Missouri. The contracts are
to be for four years from July 1, 1899
