To either man or woman, all the COM
forts and all the %1uxuries of life and all the
wealth in the world soon become a bore
and a WEAKNESS, unless there IS a baby for
whom they can both c~ontrive and plan and
work. A woman who, through ignorance
or neglect, suffers from weakness and dis
ease of the delicate and important organs
concerned in wifehood and motherhood,
blasts all these hopes. Either she will be
childless, or will lose her own life in the
struggle of maternity, or her babies will be
born puny, sickly and peevish and unable
to withstand the ordinary ailments of child
hood. DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription

IN HER HUSBANDS ARMS.
Wife of a Sea Captain FrOzen-Suffer-
ings of a Ships Crew.

NORFOLK, Va, Feb. 2O.-The crew of
the schooner James F. Bayles, shipwrecked
and abandoned at sea, arrived here to-day
and told Of their awful sufferings and the
death Of the wife of Capt. E.. H. Darling,
who froze in her husbands arms. The
Bayles sailed from Cazones, Mex, for New
York Jan. % with a cargo Of cedar and
mahogany. Saturday, Feb. IL, when off the
Delaware capes, some ninety miles at sea-,
the storm struck her. Snow and sleet fell,
and the storm increased in violence. On
Sunday the schooner sprang a leak and on
Tuesday, while the pumps were being
worked to the utmost, they broke beneath
the deck and the schooner afterward filled
fast and sank rapidly. BY night
fail she was awash, the seas swept
over her and the crew, dashed to
cold. Mrs. Darling, the captains wife, a
resident of Huntington, Long island, who
had been for hours held by her husband in
his arms, succumbed to the fearful cold and
died. For hours a~fterward, from TUESDAY
until Wednesday, the captain held her body
that the seas should not sweep his dead wife
away. For three days, hoping against nope
that help might come, the crew, without
food or water, stood dashed to the rail, the
cold waves washing them almost continue
ously. ON Thursday, when hope was almost
dead, the schooner Mount Hope came along
and took them off. The sufferers were
brought here and sent to New York on the
Old Dominion liner jamestown tonight.

TRYING TO CORNER WHISKY.
The Kentucky Trust said to lave
Purchased 100000 Barrels.

LOUISVILLE. KY, Feb. 20-The Courier
Journal will say tomorrow: THE Kentucky
Distilleries and Warehouse Company is not
only buying distilleries, but large quantities
of whisky. Many distilleries and brokers
have suspected that the combine would do
this, but it was not known until yesterday
that any whisky had been actually bought
by the company. A leading broker says that
he knows positively that the combine has
purchased no less than $4,000 or 100000 bar
rels of whisky. A prominent distiller also
said that the combine was buying big lots
of whisky. The men at the head of the con-
Germ would be foolish If they did not do So,
said he. Prices are rapidly going up. With
the whisky in their bands and with the abil-
ity to limit the production they can sway
the price at their will and will realize enor-
nous profits"

Praise for tho Provost MARSHAL.

f1dNdud AuNeItlSeI ArSO' III
The splendid order and quiet obtaining in
Quemados and Mariana affords an eloquent
tribute to the work of Provost Marshall
Major Russell b. Harrison and his assistant,
Lieutenant Dorrity. Notwithstanding the
fact that for nearly two months now there
have been encamped in the neighborhood
troops to the number of $1,000, the disorder
has been so little as to be almost a minimum
and cases of arrests are few and far be-
tween. Even payday fails to show up any
disorderly tendencies among the men. Major
Harrison at the outset i-naugurated such a
thorough system of patrols in the towns
near the camp that any riotous conduct was
out of the question. Moreover 1t would seem
as If the men of the Seventh Corps were de-
termined not to spoil the fine record they
made while in Jacksonville and Savannah
for good conduct. At any rate the good
order about the camp of the corps is a SUI
ject to omment by all visitors.

RECENT POLYGAMY IN UTAH.

The Mormon and Gentle dispute has
broken out in Utah with Q virulence OF
epithet which was little exceeded in the
campaign of ten years ago. The Gentle
organs have apparently found q weak
spot in the armor of the church, and are
exposing the large number Of plural
marriages that have been made by Nor
mon leaders since the solemn pledge oil
the church was given to abandon polyg-
amy.
The sentimant of the Nation on polyg-
m has been expressed in too unmistak.
able a way for the people Of Utah to
think that they can have this little dis
pute and keep ii wholly q State matter.
The effect is likely to be felt when the
Roberts case comes up in Congress.
The Mormon majority was admitted
to the privileges of Statehood on defe-
mite pledges to the internal policy OF
the new State, and if those pledges have
been deliberately and de6antly violated,
it will be strange il the American peo-
pie do not find some effective way oil
making their displessurs felt.-Denver
