His Advancement Amounts
to ESQ Numbers.
WILL BE CAPTAIN AT 80
Friends With Whom He Talked Are
Doubtful Whether He Will Ac-
cept the Promotion.

New York, March "a dispatch to the
Tribune from Washington says: The
presidents nomination of Richmond
Pearson Hobson to be advanced ten num-
bers from No. 1 on the list Of assistant
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. is said by nava officers
to constitute the greatest material pro-
motion as a recognition of gallantry in
the history of the naval service. 1t will
make Hobson a captain at the age of so.
His advancement amounts to $50 num-
bers in the line of the navy, which is re-
markable in comparison with the single
number secured by Admira Dewey, eight
numbers by Admira Sampson and from
three to five each by other officers during
the wal with Spain.
When it was proposed to promote Hob
son to the foot of the grade of lieuten-
ant commanders the Jump amounted to
about ten numbers only but under the
nomination made today Hobson stands
over all the lieutenant commanders and
goes nearly to the top of the commanders
list, SO far as relative rank is concerned.
OF the seven naval constructors who will
continue superior to HObson. three Will
speedily retire-COnstructOr Feaster, next
August; constructor Nafnum III Aplli,
next year, and Chief Constructor HIGH
born, who under the new personnel law.
ranks as rear admiral, on March 4, 1901.
On that date, Constructor Hobson Will
take the rank and pay of a captain. Not
until Aug. Il following, will he reach the
age of 81.
The junior captain of the nav on Jan.
!, was Capt. edward White, commanding
the flagship Philadelphia, and he was 56
years old When he received his commits
sion. Constructor Hobson therefore gains
about % years. In the ordinary course of
promotions in the naval construction
corps, however. he will not reach the sem
Tor position of chief constructor before
1922 or ten years before his own retire
ment and in the meantime he will re-
main 81 years in the grade of captain
which is nearly three times as long as
officers ordinarily retain that rank.
Whether Constructor Hobson will ac-
cept the promotion given him is curiously
enough a matter of doubt to those with
whom he talked before he started for
Hong Kong. immediately after the sink
ing of the Merrimac the advancement of
ten number given to him today was Of
fered to him, but he hesitated to accept
it, exhibiting a strong preference for
transfer and promotion in the line to the
foot Of lieutenant commanders He left
the impression with his friends that he
asDired to secure the same proportlonate
advancement in that arm of the service
as had been offered him in the staff corps,
of $50 numbers. which would have result
ed in his becoming the senior rear admir-
al of the service at the age of forty.

NO WOMAN is 3

Regularity is a matter of Importance
in every woman's life. Much pain is,
however, endured in the belief that it
is necessary and not alarming, when
in truth it is all wrong and indicates
arrangement that may cause serious
trouble.
Excessive monthly pain itself will
unsettle the nerves and make women
old before their time.
The foundation of woman's health is
a perfectly normal and regular per-
Torrance of natures function. The
statement we print from Miss GER.
TRUDE SKIES, of Eldred, Pa, is echoed
in every city, town and hamlet in this
country. Read what she says:
"DEAR Mrs. P%INKHAM:-I feel like q
new person since following your adj
vice, and think it is my duty to let the
public know the good your remedies
have done me. My troubles were pain
full menstruation and leucorrh9a. I
was nervous and had spells of being
confused. Before using your remedies
l never had any faith in patent medi-
cines. l now wish to say hat 1 never
had anything do me SO much good for
painful menstruation as Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound; also would
say hat your Sanative Wash has cured
me of leucorrhea. l hope these few
words may help suffering women"
The present Mrs. Pinkham's expert
ence in treating female ills is unparal"
leled, for years she worked side by
side with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, and
for sometime past has had sole charge
of the correspondence department of
her great business, treating by letter
as many as a hundred thousand ailing
women during a single year.
All suffering women are invited to
write freely to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn
Mass, for advice about their health.

At daybreak I awoke again to 4 repeti-

which, although I was better fortified; to
meet them, were greater than before. The

LADY BROOKE'S HORSES.

The Countess of Warwick drives a
magnificently matched pair of white
Arabians, which are known as the
"Rothschild's ponies" One of the pair
was presented to her by the late baron,
and the story of the presentation illus
trates his keen admiration of horsefesh
and his gallant generosity. The countess
had one white Arab and the baron an
other, and the baron discovered the two
were a perfect match. He was anxious
to rake a pair of them, and he offered
to purchase the countess treasure at her
own figure. Blu Lady Warwick refused
all offers. The baron had set his heart
upon matching these two equine beau
ties, and rather than be disappointed he
presented his to the countess.

COST OF GOVERNMENT,

An ingeniFls Englishman has figured
out the cost Of an hour Of government
since the beginning of the century. In
France the figures show an alarming ten
dercy to increase, Under Napoleon an
hour of government cost $4,000 francs;
under Louis Philippe, $50. 000; under the
second republic, 100, 900; under Napoleon
III, 249, GOO; from 1870 to 1880, 3O7 900, on
account of the raising Of the average
by the cost of the war with Germany, but
from 1850 to 1890 the cost was 400, 900
francs per hour. A French paper re-
marks that this seems to prove the I'M
desirability of paying a government by
the hour or by the day; payment by the
piece, according to the work done, is the
only way, it thinks.

FOUGHT WITH MYRIADS OF CRABS.

There is a tiny islet on the outskirts of
the Solomon Archipelago that to all such
casual wanderers as stray so far presents
not a single feature Of interest. Like
scores of other in those ATTITUDES, it has
not vet attained to the dignity of a sim
gle cocoanut tree, although many derelict
nuts have found a Judgment upon it, and
began to grow only to be wiped out of
existence at the. next springtlde. Viewed
from a balloon it wOuld look like a silly
season mushroom, but with a fringe of
snowy foam around it marking the pro-
tecting barrier to which it yves it's eXis-
tence, to say nothing of its growth. Yet
of all places in the world which l have
been privileged to visit this barren little
mound of sand clings most tenaciously to
my memory, for reasons which will pres
emily appear.
One of those devastating cyclones that
at long intervals sweep across the Pacific
leaving a long swath of destruction in
their wake, had overtaken the pearling
schooner of which l was mate. For "a
hours we fled before it, we knew not
whittier, not daring to heave to. The
only compass we possessed had been de-
strOyed by the first sea that broke on
board. Whether it was night or day we
had no notion except by watch, and even
then we were doubtful, so appalling was
the darkness. Hope was beginning To
revive that, as the Papalangi a proved
herself so strong. she might yet run it
out" unless she hit something. But the
tiny rag rugged forward to keep her be-
fore it suddenly flew into threads; the
curl Of the sea caught under the counter
and
SPUN HER INTO THE WIND
Like a teetotum. The next vast comber
took her broadside on, rolled her over,
and swallowed her up. We went down
quick into the pit"

C. O.. Grimshaw has found out what
many people have long wanted to know
teh approximate cost of doing their cook
ing by electricity. A kettle of one and
pints can be kept in service for
an hour for 2.56 cents; a two-chop griller,
if used right along, will cost 4.4S cents an
hour, or 1.60 cents for the cooking of the
two chops. A %two-quart saucepan can
be kept in operation for an hour for 81
cents. A %16-quart fish kettle will cost
9.12 cents an hour, and a domestic iron
will cost 1.6 cents worth of electric en-
ergy in the same time, or o a quar-
ter of a cent for one ironing.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York, Dec. 27.-The market for Sc
curites showed the effect of the great re-
lief felt by the dissipation of several fac
tors of apprehension and prices mounted
upward with increasing buOyancy as the
day progl CSscd. The market closed with
burst of animation ard strength at the
top level of the day. Net gains in num-
Der of in portant railroads reached three
points, with a long list of advances of a
point or better. Among the industrlals
and specialtiCs gains We're even more
striking, quite a number having advanced
from to 10 points as result Of the day
trading. The demand from an OutStand-
ing short interest to cover accentuated
the strGr 9Th of the latter group, those
which have recently suffered most show
ing the greatest benefit from the days
business. Brooklyn Transit was almost
Il solitary exception and was subject to
vigorous attacks all day in an effort to
unscttle the market and check the ad-
vance But this stock although it ranged
over more than four points, closed with
net loss of only point. The leading in
tiuence in the Improvement Of sentiment
was the quiet and orderly manner in
which the periodical settlement on the
London Stock exchange proceeded. Grave
fears were felt that the recent Shrinkage
in values as a result of adverse war news
would prevent many operators on the
London exchange from meeting their en-
gagements at the current settlement. The
news this morning thai no acute difficult
were easy and prices inclined to ad-
vance, rather than to decline, brought i'm
mense relief, which was promptly reflect
ed at the opening hour in an advance all
along the line. The only notable check
came with the news of the failure of a
Boston stock exchange house but this
influence was only temporarily and slight.
The conditions in the money market were
notably easy, and one of the largest in
dividual money lenders in the street made
| large loans to carry over until next Tues
day at the rate of per cent. The cur
rent rate ruled from to per cent. The
close of the year is universally expected
to terminate the period of severe strin-
gency, and to be followed by relaxation,
owing to disbursements Of dividends and
interest, which will be on an unprecedent-
ed scale. The trading did not take on
