BEEF NOT FIT TO EAT.
Statement From Capt. Warburton
to the Board Of Survey.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-The Board
of Survey appointed by Secretary Alger
to pass upon the question of the proper
condemnation of large quantity OF
beef destined for the troops in Porto
Rico has referred to a statement from
Captain Barney Warburton OF the
Pennsylvania battalion of artillery as
to the condition of the beef on board
the transport Manitoba, which tr:s.s-
port was at Ponce from August lCth to
18th.
In the course of the statement Cap
tain Warburton says: Il ate Of the
beef which the transport brought to
Porto Rico. It was served to the OH
GERS mess on the United States trans-
port Mississippi, which brought my
command back to New York, leaving
Ponce Sci TENDER Sd and arriving at
New York September 10, 1893. When
/ say 7 ate the meat. must qualify
my statement by sayi ) that 1 tried to
eat the meat. 1t was so bad that it
was impossible to swallow. In my
opinion the meat was not good. nor was
it fit for use.
In, raply to your request to give the
board any other evidence or intorma-
ton in my possession or knowledge,
my answer in general is that all the
beef issued to my battalion was Tad,
and had to be buried Immediately upon
delivery at our camp. which was about
two miles beyond Ponce, at q place
called Banos Ia Quintana, which neces-
STATED its transportation, should say,
a distance efVsix miles from the COM
missary depot, which was at Playa. On
the day in question Private Hack of
Light Battery C, Pennsylvania Artil-
lery, was sent for an issue of beef,
which his Captain had been notified
would be issued on the morning on
which he was sent On his return
met the wagon, and while it was yet
some $50 yards from me 1 noticed the
most terrible odor, which seemed to
me to smell something like carbon I
was mounted, and when I got alongside
of the wagon looked into it and saw
the meat which had been issued to him
for Light Battery G, Pennsylvania Vol
unteer Artillery. 1t looked white, about
the color Of the belly of a founder
which had been covered with a green
slime. / instructed him to present my
compliments to his commanding officer,
Mathematician, with instructions to
have thessame buried Immediately on
it's arrival at camp
Captain Warburton gives the names
of some witnesses whose testimony
may be of value.

The special committee of the Wheel
ing lodge of Elks, who went out to
| Canton to get some pointers" in
methods of successfully conducting
! Oriental street fairs, returned home
| early yesterday morning. In the party
was G. R. Tracy, Louis F. Gundling,
Thos. O'Brien, Jr., Emanuel Hanauer,
| Geo. w. Lutz. and M. A. Chew. Ar
chitect Fred Faris accompanied the
party, for the purpose of getting some
suggestions upon designs for enclosure
of the big show, construction of booths,
etc. The visit to Canton was made
for the reason that the Canton Elks
conducted a similar enterprise which
netted the lodge nearly $4,000.
The Wheeling people met delega-
ton of Allegheny Elks who were in
Canton on tn Alsame mission. All stop
ped at the Barnet House, where the
Canton Elks entertained in manner
peculiar to Elks alone. The local
committeeman expressed themselves
as more than pleased with their trip.
The information which they cleaned
will be of great service in the arrange
ments for the coming show, and will
enable the Wheeling Elks to profit by
the experience of their Canton breth-
rem.
The visitors were SURPRISED TO learn
that only 1880 lineal feet of space
was required for the Canton fair. The
Wheeling exhibit will require upwards
of 1000 feet That much is contem-
plated in the present plans, and the
show is daily increasing in magnitude.
1t may be found-no Elk will be sur
p!Aed if it is-that a further concess-
ion of street space from Conucil will
be necessary.
Monday morning the local Elks will
begin the solicitation of business men
and manufacturers for space A great
amount has already been disposed Of
On Monday, also, set of large pho
tographs of the scenes which will be a
part of the fair, will be placed on ex-
hibition. There will be nine pictures,
showing views of the streets of Cairo
and other villages, dry goods depart
ments in fairs elsewhere, ETC., etc.

N0SLEEP FOR THREE MONTHS,
One Cause Of sleepIessness That Can b.
Overcome.

Mr.. VIM. Handschu, of 46th st.
Cotton Alley. Pittsburg, Pa, ex-
presses himself as follows regard
ing the new remedy for that COM
mon and obstinate disease, piles:
Il take pleasure in stating that I
was so afflicted with piles that for
three months l got no regular
sleep; | became completely pros
trated, the doctors did me no good;
my brother told me of the new rem
edy for piles, the Pyramid Pile
Cure; purchased of my druggist
three 50-cent boxes and they COM
pletely cured me. / am once more
at work and but for this excellent
remedy I would be on my back.
l take great pleasure in writing this
letter because SO many people are
sufferers from this trouble who
like myself did not know where to
look for a permanent, safe, relia-
BILE cure.
Experience with the Pyramid
Pile Cure for the past three years
has demonstrated to the medical
profession as well as to thousands
of sufferers from piles, that it is
the safest and most effectual pile
cure ever offered to the public, con-
tanning no opiates or poisons of
any kind, painless and convenient
to handle, and being sold by drug
gists at SOC and S100 per box, is
within the reach of every sufferer.
Nnryy tur thron hnync
nave made a complete cure OF
chronic cases that had not yielded
to other remedies for years.
There is scarcely a disease more
aggravating and obstinate to cure
than the various forms of piles,
and it is a common practice to use
ointments, salves and similar prep
arations containing dangerous poi
sons to remove the trouble. The
Pyramid has superseded all of
these Intellectual remedies and no
one suffering with any rectal trou-
BILE will make any mistake in CIV
ing the Pyramid a trial.
If in doubt as to the nature OF
your trouble, send to the Pyramid
Drug Co., Marshall, Mich, for
valuable book on piles, describing
all forms of the disease and de-
scribing the method of cure.
Any druggist can furnish the
Pyramid Pile Cure as it is the best
known and most popular remedy
for piles and if you ask him he can -
doubtless refer you to many people
in your own vicinity who have
been cured completely by it.
