ADVICE FOR THIN PEOPLE.

Here is good advice TO thin people
who want to grow far, says Pearson's
Weekly. 1t seems contrary to all our
early training. but is full of good COM
mon sense. and comes from promi-
nent physician. His suggestions are as
follows:
"If YOU are thin and want to put
flesh upon your bones. eat before going
to he'd for the night Physiology teach
es US that there is wasting away or
tissue while a person sleeps as well as
when ne is awake and this being SO,
there should be continuous nourish-
ment Food taken at dinner or in the
earlv evening Is always digested at the
time Of retiring. and the activity Of the
process Of assimilation continues until
long after we are asleep.
'If the tissues are not nourished, they
are pulled down by the wasting process,
end as a result sleeplessness ensues.
ON a full stomach. however. or with
sounc food To sustain the system, there
is a building up of the tissue.

BROUGHT BACK FROM THE GRAVE.
Last November Mr.. Joseph James,
painter, Of 325 w. Pecri ST., lndianapo-
lis, Ind, was at deaths doorMith quick
consumption. Wasted to skeleton;
his lungs mass of ulceration; his
death was hourly awaited by his doctor
and family. He was Kept III constant
stupor with opium. A friend, thinking
to relieve his terrible cough, gave him
bottle of Brazilian Balm. Seeing Its
wonderful effect, the doctor advised its
continued use. Mr.. James soon alter
dismissed his doctor, and depended
on the Balm alone. His recovery was
rapid and complete, and i'll February he
returned to work. His lungs are sound,
and his weight greater than at any time
in his life. His recovery is regarded as
almost a miracle.

COMMA BACILLUS.

In consumption beware of cough mix
lures and prescriptions that contain
opium. Opium paralizes the nerves;
and gives the comma bacillus good
chance TO destroy the lungs. 1t is
always fatal. Brazilian Balm does not
contain trace of any opiate, but stimu-
lates the nerves with new life and power,
destroys the microbe, and restores all
that is left of the diseased lungs TO
sound and healthy state which no other
remedy has ever been known to accom-
piish.

THE HOOK DESERTED.
Shamrock and Columbia
Race No More This
Year.

New York. Oct 21.-sandy Hook Bay
is deserted tonight, save for a few
coasters and fishermen lying at anchor.
Shamrock was towed away soon after
noon. She now lies off the foot of
Liberty street, and will go in the Erie
basin tomorrow. there to be stripped
and to receive her rig for her trip back
to Glasgow, about week hence.
Early in the forenoon Columbia was
towed to Tompkinsville, and at IL
o'clock she was taken in tow by the
Corsair, the flagship of the New York
Yacht Club, and towed up the East
river to New Rochelle there to be
stripped and laid up in the near future.
No victorious yacht ever received such
demonstration as did the Columbia
and her consort as they passed up the
harbor. Every steamer and vessel that
had a flag saluted her from the Bat
| terry to Harlem, and from there to New
Rochelle. The tender st. Michaels,
which accompanied the yachts, also
came in for her share of applause.
| Sir Thomas Upton, when seen by an
| Associated Press representative on
board the Erin, which anchored off
Tompkinsville shortly after noon to-
| day, said: Il hope to remain here for a
| week or ten days, during which time I
.
cago. 1 have not attempted to do any
| business since my arrival, having given
| all my time to the Shamrock 1 have
more than two hundred unopened let
! tiers, which simply had to wait until
| the races were over.
| The Columbia is a wonderful boat,
| and l have been more than fairly
! treated by my competitors. The Sham
| rock will be taken to Erie basin, where
| her jury rig viii be put on her, and we
| expect she will be able to sail for the
! other side, accompanied by the Erin,
| in about ten days" Sir Henry Bur-
! dette, one of Sir Thomas guests, who
will sail by Wednesdays steamer, left
| for Boston today on a visit
Just before the yacht Erin left her
| anchorage in the Horseshoe this morn
| ing, one of the last acts of Sir Thomas
Linpton was to present to the observers
| of the Postal Telegraph company cable
tower at Sandy Hook an autograph let
ter thanking them for their courteous
| and efficient service. Accompanying
| the letter was a small package con-
tanning a valuable and handsome gold
| scarf pin for each of the men. The
pins are of elaborate design, with the
Shamrock and Royal Ulster Yacht
club flags in gold and blue and green
| enamel, tied across with a knot of
gold. The wives of the observers each
| received a gold brooch of the same de-
sign.

Rumor That British
Hero Passed Away
Unconfirmed.
CROWDS AROUND WAR OFFICE.
General White Leaves on
Expedition to Glands
laagt.

London, Oct. 21.-An edition Of the
Of Gen. Symons, but this report has not
been confirmed. To a gentleman who,
on behalf of Lady Symons, inquired at
a late hour this evening regarding the
Pail Mall Gazette's announcement, a
responsible official of the war office
stated that no fresh news had been re-
ceived since the dispatch stating that
Gen. Symons' condition was slightly i'm
proved
Many affecting scenes were witnessed
today among the crowds who gathered
at the war office to read the names Of
the killed and wounded in the engage
ment at Glencoe which had been posted
there. Some women were quite over
come upon learning of their losses.
Many fervent Thank Cod was ut
tered by, those who turned away with
out finding in the lists the names they
feared to see there, and occasionally a
deep sob would escape from some
strong man
AT o'clock this morning the war
office: Ladysmith-Gen. White rode to-
ward Elandslaage at 2.30 p. m. The
force under Gen. French left here at
a. m. by road and rail to Modder' S
bridge. By p. m. it had been gradually
strengthened to the following total:
81 remain here in defence of Lady
smith with the Gloucester regiment t,
half the Manchester, half the Gordon
Highlanders, a mountain battery and
500 Natal volunteers.
Il learn by telephone from an ar
mored train a mile this side of Eland-
slaagt that at p. m. the enemys three
guns were silenced and that our infan-
try were about to charge. The enemy
number this morning was estimated at
1000, and another 1000 is expected to ar
rive during the afternoon" Gen.
Whites intention was to reopen the
railway to Dundee and return here with
his troops tonight.
At 7.45 report was received by tele-
phone saying we had carried the enc
my's position, capturing their camp,
equipment, horses and wagons. The
cavalry are in pursuit. The operators
on the instruments say we have some
wounded, but have no details yet. 1
expect Gen. White will be late, SO I'll
wire for him.
The latest advices from Cape Town
show that all was we'll at Kimberly OH
Thursday. A small body of Beers APP
preached Kimberly Wednesday, and
Maj. Chamiere made sortie with d
accommodating party and some guns OH
board an armored train. After d few
shots had been exchanged the burghers
fed precipitately. There were no cas-
ualties on the British side. The police
garrison of Fourteen Streams and
Taung's have arrived at Kimberly.
Everything tends to confirm the state
ment that Col. Baden-Powell tempor-
arily worsted the Beers at Mafeking,
and it appears true that upwards Of 300
wounded Beers have arrived at johann
nesburg.

Cincinnati, O., Oct. 21.-Music hall
could not contain all wanting to hear
Gov. Roosevelt and Senator Foraker at

the parade reached it. Gov. Bus nell
and staff We're in the city. Senator
Foraker made a stirring address in
support of Judge Nash for governor and
the Endorsement of President Mckinley.
Gov. Roosevelt spoke in part as fol-
lows: "A grimly comic feature of the
present International conspiracy against
America and civilization is the way in
which the adherents of Aguinaldo in
the Philippines and his apologIsts mere
pat one another on the back; and an
other striking feature is the wild in
vectiva, the savage and incoherent Vio-
lence of the language employed by
these apostles of peace.
yet. after all it is but natural. They
are repeating precisely the tactics of
the copper of the civil war. Those
of you who are old enough will remem-
Der that the copper-heads who de-
nounced the union army always de-
nounced them in the name of the new
gospel Of peace. Their cry was
Peace; even Peace at any price"
and it was these apostles of peace who,
by their furious denunciation of Abrd =
ham Lincoln and of the northern peo-
pie and their frantic invectives against
every measure of the government, final
ly stirred to madness the dark ard
gloomy souls that are always to be
found OF the outskirts of such move
ment. IN 1863 the preachers of the doc
trine of cowardly peace were RESPONSE
BILE for the terrible and bloody OUT
breaks in New York city which we
know by the name of the draft riots.
In 1865 these same craven preachers of
npsse were responsible for the murder
of Abraham Lincoln. Nowadays their
successors. who use their exact IAN
guage in denouncing our conduct in the
Philippines, have stained their own
souls with the blood of our soldiers and
of their Philippine foes"

MAY NAME NEW MEN.

The Governors Council Has Not Con-
frmed Nominees to Fish Commission.
In view of the opposition shown in
the governor scouncil to the men named
for commissioners of inland fisheries
and game, last week, it would not be
surprising if Elisha D. Burlington of
this city was chosen chairman of the
commission for the coming year. 1t
looks now as If Mr.. Burlington will be
the only member of this years COM
mission who will be on the new one.
In that case. it would be only natural
for the others to agree on him as chair
man Of the board, for the experience
which he has had in the work of the
commission would entitle him to the
office
Gov. Wolcott, at the last meeting of
the council, nominated E. A. Bracket
of Winchester and Joseph w. Collins
of Boston, but opposition was shown,
and a committee from the council is
now looking over the field for other
appointees. Should new men be Sc
lected, the office of chairman ought to
be given Mr.. Burlington as he has quail
ifications necessary for the position
Should the others be named again and
