CATARIsH OF TEIE sToaIACH.
i Pleasant Simple, bat Safe
Enectual Cure for it.

Cafarrh of the stomach has long
been considered the next thing to
incufable.
The usual symptoms are a fall OF
bloating sensation after eating. ac-
eompanied sometimes with sour or
watery-risings, a formation Of gases,
cansing pressure on tte heart and
lungs and difficult breathing head
ache tickle appetite, nervousness ant!
q general played cut. languid feel
ing.
There is often foul taste ii the
mouth, coated tongue, and if the
interior OF the stomach could be seen
it would show Shiny, inaamed con-
dition.
The cure for this common and OBJ
stinate trouble is found ia q treat
meut which causes the food to be
readily, thrOughly digested before 1t
has time TO fernent and irritate
the delicate mucous surfaces OF the
stomach
To secure a prompt and healthy
digestion is the one. necessary thing
to do, ard when normal digestion
I is secured the catarrhal condition
Will have disappeared.
According to DR.. Harlanson the
safest and best treatment Is to use
after each meal tablet, composed
Of piastase, Aseptc Pepsin, little
Max. Golden Seal and frat acids.
These tablets can now be found
at all drug stores under the name of

NOR ENOUGH TO GO AROUND.
Pension Appropriation Insufficient
to Satisfy Claims.

IL seems that the appropriation OF SoSJ,VoO
by the last legislature for pensions for
crippled ana INDECENT Confederate soldiers
and indigen widows of soldiers is not SUI
iieient to satisfy the demands of all who
have a legal claim 10 share in these eene-
fits
Judging from a letter received yesterday
BY Hon. Hampton L. Ferrin, Ordinary,
from Commissioner OF Pensions Richard
Johnson, there win be little money left
for many Of these more recent claims. The
letter of the commissioner gives some idea
OF the extent TO which the pension business
has been carried in this state. 1t is as fol-
lows:
''In answer to the many inquiries as to
the payment of unenrolled claims, the FOL
lowing statement is made:
In all probability all widows claims,
meeting the requirements of the law, Will
be paid.
''The only fund available to pay unen-
rolled soldiers claims. both invalid and in
digent, Is such as may be left after pay
ing the respective rolls of 1897. What such
margin may be cannot be determined until
the rolls are paid. and every enrolled
claim should be IN this office not later than
the 18th OF March Gas was stated IN circu-
lar sent out on Dec. Is lasD, after that
date they will be treated as dead, though
they will be paid If received before the
funds are exhausted.
'.It is estimated that 80 new claims can
be put on the invalid roll of which 100
we're approved in December last, leaving
twenty other places for which there are
now on,.ille about $50 applications.
1T iS.also estimated that 25O new indi-
gent claims can be enrolled, There will
likely be more than 5000 Of such applSa-
tons
You can, therefore, see how slender the
chances to pay new claims of either class.
THE examination of new claims was
not finished in 1897 until July, and it will
probably take as long this year"

TO HANDLE WAR MUNITIONS.
Railroads Figuring on Carrying
Guns to Florida Forts.

W FOFtS.
The. railroads are being given a chance
by the government to name rates on ord
nance, gun carriages and munitions. For
some time material for the equipment of
the forts in course of construction on the
coast of Florida has been moving, large
lots being transported from time to time
The war department is constructing for
tffcations at several points along the Flor
ida coast. These Notifications are similar
to those at Tybee. Disappearing long
range guns with their heavy and complex
cartridges are being sent down for their
equipment. Mortars are also being plac-
ed in position, and their carriages also add
TO the weight of the freight handled
-Four or five months ago the first appli-
cation for rates on the transportation of a
large supply of the artillery from some
eastern point to Key West was made. The
Plant System was asked to name rates
When such matters come up, the initial
line, that which first handles the freight,
starts the correspondence with the other
lines forming the links of the route to the
destination in order to find how much the
cost OF transportation will be. In the
queries that have come to the Plant Sys-
tenn the Pennsylvania lines have been in
terested as the initial road.
Key west is the point to which most of
the material of war is being sent. There
is no all rail route to that city, so the mu-
nitions have to go all the way by water
or by rail and water. Thus far all the
freight, or the heaviest shipments, have
been sent from New York by the steamers
of the Mallory Line. These are large and
in every way suited to the transportation
of heavy guns. The Plant System has not
yet handled large shipment. This has
been on account of the inability of its
steamers plying between Port Tampa and
Key West to carry the guns. Some of
them weigh many tons, and it is impossi-
bic for them to be handled except aboard
vessels of large size.
The latest correspondence with the Penn
sylvania lines has been about shipment
of $4,000 pounds of material The same
difficulty lies in the way of the Plant Sys-
TEN taking the shipment and the proba-
bilities are that it will go by way Of the
Mallory Line. There is a route by rail
and steamer to Key West, via Miami, but
the same difficulty keeps it from being
utilized. The freight men do not attach
any special significance to the request for
rates being received just at this time. Some
have thought that it Is another sign of
war being speedily declared but the off,
Gals know that the movements have been
going on too long for any one shipment to
mean any more than those that have pre-
coded. s

The street railway forces have played
havoc with the streets on which The
tracks have been torn up and relald In
some places the paving has not been re-
placed al ALI: in others il has been loosely
piled together without regard to the safety
of travel.

street for about three weeks. at the end
of the track neartthe Central Railroad
passenger station, a fdeep hole was left

This condition generally exists wherever
the track has been torn up.
The railway company owes II to the peo-
pie that the streets should not hc OBJ

cIes.
Not single arrest was made by the po-
lice yesterday, which is a record that has
not been attained by the department for
some time. The rain is supposed TO cause
the diminution in drunkenness and other
petty offenses.
The older sergeants. in talking of the
let-up. say that IL has been their OBSERVE
ton that on rainy days and nights ne
groes will not drink or otherwise become
disorderly. The weather has the effect of
keeping al, classes indoors and especially
the negroes, who do not assemble in
squads about the city. and are, therefore,
less liable to become riotous
Recorder Hartridge is having easy sail

dockets he has from time to time fully
