 We call especlal attention to the arge odvertisment of Vitae-Ore on fourth page. Mr. Noel is one of the best medicine advertisers that has ever sought space in our paper. He does not ask our space for nothing, but pays us the spot cash at living rates. Ten dollars per issue is certainly better figures than IS usually offered country papers. However MT. Noel considers that he is not giving something tor nothing. He is telling to the world the merits of one of the greatest medicines ever discovered. /. Most, if not all, the nostrums found in the drugstores are pat ent medicines, but such is not the case with VitaeOre. It is mined from the dobths of natures great storehouse. The very liberal sales of this medicine iA Green Forest and vicinity during the past year justified this extra advertising, and it is hoped that many more suffol CTS will learn of this wonderful .medi- cine. Mrs. M A, Russell has been agent for V o. for the past year and her success has caused Mir.

 Perry Andrews, late sergeant ot Go. K and an old friend of THE TRIBUNE boys, was among the soldiers here Monday night. He was looking the picture of health, and says his ten months army service has afforded him a wealth of experience. Perry certainly has an exceptional record tor one who has undergone all the cares and temptations incident 10 soldier life. During his entire service he mover deviatcd from the iron-clad resolutions that has characterized him every since We have known him. H did not taste of an in- toxicant nor use tobacco in any form, but adhered strictly to the rules of beaith and good morals. It is needless to say he did no time in the guard house. and that he has friend in every soldier of his company. It IS pleasure to come in contact with such splendid young men as Mir. Andrews.

Tne steel was taken from the Maine
as soon as the Americans gained con-

A Man Without a Country.

Having been informed by the State
a passport as a citizen of the United
States, and having been told by the
same authority that he assuredly could
not demand a passport from the Span
ish government as resident Of Spain,
Senior Adolfo Vandrell, "a native of Por-
to Rico, is inclined to think he is Mr..
Nobody from nowhere. This decision
by the State Department places the
citizens of Puerto Rico in a peculiarly
embarrassing position. Senior Van
drell wished to visit Europe, and nat
urally he wanted to carry with him the
passport, the possession of which is a
condition precedent to crossing the
boundary line of some of those nations
The State Department officially sus-
tains their position by explaining that
Congress has not yetvested the citizens
of Peurto Rico with citizenship, and
claim that they are upheld by preced-
ent. Unless the Secretary of State
himself should overrule this decision,
the only recourse that Senior Vandrell
and other residents of the island have
is by application for mandamus to
compel the department to issue the
passport. That would bring the whole
question before the courts.-Cor. Gin.

P0merov Wants a Dam.

A meeting of the citizens; was held
at the court house last evening for the
purpose of perfecting an organization
looking toward securing locks and
dams for this part of the Ohio river
Major Jenkins called the meeting to
order and after a few remarks, intro
duced the chairman, Judge Stanbery,
who favored the meeting with a brief
address on the benefits to be derived
by the business men, laborers and
others along the Bend by having one
of the dams located near Pomeroy.
Gen. Grosvenor, who has been work.
ing for years to secure appropriations
for the improvement of the Ohio by a
system of looks and dams, was present
and favored the meeting with a splen-
did address on the subject. When
General Grosvenor first entered Con-
gress in 1885, he was appointed
member of the Rivers and Harbors
committee, and ever since then he has
been Identified with the work of this
committee, and is undoubtedly, better
posted on the subject than any other
member of Congress.
The Ohio river" says the General,
lis the greatest open natural channel
of commerce in the world. The COM
merce of the Ohio from Pittsburg to
Cairo is greater in 80 days than that
of the Missouri and Mississippi rivers
in six years, and every year finds it
increasing at more rapid rate
1t has reached such stage now that
Congress has been compelled to recog-
ME its greatness and make some pro-
vision toward making it navigable the
year around.
An appropriation was made at the
last session of Congress for survey
of the river from Marietta to Cincin-
natl and during this survey which will
take place during low water this sum
mer, most of the dams will be located
These dams are not to be located at
equal distances from each other, but at
such places only that they will do the
most good, as at Letart Falls, Wolfe's
bar and Eight Mile. An appropriation
for one of these dams will probably be
made at the next session of Congress
and II we want one of the first we will
have to get to work to get it for other
cities and towns are making efforts TO
capture this prize.
At the close OF General Grosvenor's
speech. committee of seven was ap-
pointed by the chair to perfect an Or
sanlzation that will look after the
Bends interest-Pomeroy Telegraph.

Compressed Air for Power,

At the Panhandle shops compressed
air is being used to move engines in
and out OF the machine shop. This
does away with the old plan of using
a yard engine or force of men with
pinch bars. The air is conducted
through pipes from the boiler house,
and with long hose attachments can be
readily carried some distance from the
machine shop shifting table. The
boilers of the engines are drained of
water and then filled with compressed
air, until pressure of about 90 or 70
pounds is shown ON the guage, which
Is sufficient to move an engine short
distance. The Pennsylvania officials
ara highly elated over the success OF
of their experiments.-Ohio State

Novel Insurance.

San Francisco, april ia novel
idea of insurance, conceived by George
c. Platt, of this city, is about to be put
to a practical test. The proposed in
surance lis against unavoidable loss OF
employment, the policy-holder being
paid three-quarters of the amount OF
his salary for six months, should that
time be required lin which to find a
new position. In case the premium
holder, having lost his place should be
offered one on trial at less amount
than his former salary, the difference
will be made up by the company.
That the scheme lis not a visionary
one is shown by the fact that among
the stockholders of the new company
are some of the most prominent citi-
zens of the state, including P L. Lii
Goth, Louis Sloss, William G. Gerstle,
M. II. Hecht, E. w. VanSycklen,
Charles r. Bishop, c. II. Croker and N.
ID. Ridout. The company has the au-
thorization of the state insurance COM
missioner to do business in California.

ceiving instrument on a roll of tape in
the same manner, and then must be
translated from the Morse characters
