We have meteorites of glass as we'll as
of stone and iron, if the recent conclusions
of certain European biologists are tC be
accepted. The CLASSY stones of Bohemia
known as moldavite, resembling the OBJ
sidian-boMbs Of Australia, have been a
puzzle to scientific men, but have been
explained by some authors as being relics
OF prehistoric glass-manufacture. Late
experiments by Herr j. Bares have shown
that these objects canno have had this
ARTIFICIAL origin. The new theory that
they are aerolites has been advanced by
DR.. F. e. Suess, who finds many analo-
gles to support this view, and points es-
pecially to the surface structure, which
could not have been produced by ordinary
water-wear. Other biologists are adding
facts confirming the theory. Herr VOL
drich points out. however, that it IS re-
markable hat these stones, whether in
Europe or elsewhere, are only known to
occur in candy deposits.
n highest scientific accuracy is
reached only by corrections for both OBJ

CAPTAIN SMITH TO RESIGN.
Gave Notice of His Intention at Last
 Nights Meeting.

Gave Notice of His Intention at Last
 Nights Meeting.
 The Blues held a very interesting meeting at the conclusion of their week. ly drill last evening. The successor to Lieutenant Hotchkiss, whose nasty res l ignation caused such a surprise among the members of the company, was voted on, resulting in the election of Third i Sergeant Doody to fill the vacant place. 1 Simultaneously with the election Of Sergeant Doody to the lieutenancy, the company was treated to another sur prise in the avowal by Captain Smith of his intention to again hand in his res | ignation. It was as if a thunderbclt had fallen in their midst and to say that the members of the company were as founded is putting it very mildly. Com ing close upon the resignation of Lieu tenant Tfotchkiss and following the pre- vious resignation of Captain Smith him. self, the double loss disturbed the com pany greatly. And then the two follow ing so c1cse upon the resignation of First Lieutenant Pen6eld. the action looks as though there was something radically wrong with the Blues as a company. What this is nobody seems able to deter mine but some of the criticism in Lieu tenant Hotchkiss letter of resignation,
 if true, do not speak well for it. In it he condemns the conditions existing in the company and the lack of harmony and expresses the desire to be out of it. The only reason Captain Smith would vouchsafe for his resignation was the newspaper publicity which the company is getting, and the lack of appreciation of his efforts. The men of the com pany itself all say that it is one of the most harmonious of any occupying the armory and insist that they do not un- derstand what the references to lack of harmony and existing conditions can mean. They all insist that Captain Smiths resignation cannot be accepted and express great regret that it should be rendered.

IS IT DURABLE 2
AQueBtfOn Often Asked by Those Az
 f1IcteG With Piles.

 Is strained joint curable? Is local inflammation curable? Of course, II properly treated So is piles.
 People often become afflicted with piles and ask some old "chronic" who has always persisted in the wrong treat ment and naturally discourages them by telling them that their case is hopeless.
 They in turn discourage others, and thus a disease that can in every case be cured by careful and sl1ilful handling is allowed to sap the energy of thous- ands who might free themselves of the trouble in a few days.
 Pyramid Pile Cure will cure the most aggravated case of hemorrhoids in an astonishingly short time. It relieves the conjested parts, reduces the tunors in stantly no matter how large, allays the inflammation and stops the aching or itching at once.
 Thousands who had resorted to eXpen- sive surgical operations have been cured by Pyramid Pile Cure-in a number of instances persons who had spent months in hospital under specialist.
 It is a remedy that none need fear to apply even to the most aggravated, swollen and inhamed hemorrhoidal to- mors.
 If you are afflicted with this stubborn disease you can master 1t and master it quickly.
 The remedy is no longer an experi- ment, but a medical certainty, It is manufactured by the Pyramid Drug Co. of Marshall, Mich.
 Druggists sell it at 50 cents per box. It is becoming the most popular pile cure this country has ever known and druggists everywhere are ordering it Tor their customers. ja26-2S
