Large shipments of whisky in bond from American to European ports are constantly being made. It Is not de signedfor foreign consumption but VII shortly be returned here and placed or sale at the best bars in the country. Several thousand barrels are now awaiting shipment at our seaports. While some of the whisky will be sent by Baltimore owners, the most of it will be from Cincinnati and other western cities. After being kept in European warehouses for six months or year the greater part will then be brought back to this country for sale The whisky to be sent out is of tha 1891 and 1892 distillation. which must be taken out of the bonded warehouses because the eigh-year limit has expir ed. Whisky may be stored in bonded warehouse eight years without being subject to the international revenue of S1.10 gallon. At the expiration of eight years it must be taken out Rath- CT than pay the tax and lose the use of the money until the sale of the goods, fE@1iAS 0W itSlo p1G1SI u S1iD G1Gif Sui- plus stock to the other side and store them tEere until needed, claiming that the Cost of freight both ways and stor- Rge in Europe will be less than the cost of meeting internal revenue re 8airements at time when there is to demand for the goods. Tie tax is only required to be paid when whisky is put on the market for consumption, so that goods shipped to Europe in bond are not taxed. They are brought back as required by the demands of the market here. Goods remaining in this country out of bond are supposed to be on the market. This method is pur- sued by dealers and distillers who overload themselves. The output in 1892 was heavier than the demand, and t is part of the surplus which is now going to Europe to await the time when it must be brought back to be placed on the market.

"For city use in modern buildings"
said safe manufacturer, safes are
nowadays made thinner walled than
formerly, thus giving them more room
inside in proportion to the space the
safe occupies. The modern building
is fireproof, or substantially so, and in
case of fire the safe does not fall down
through the burned floors into a mass
of burning debris in the cellar. but it
stays where it has been placed sup
ported by the steel floor beams of the
room and, with less around it to burn,
subjected to comparatively less heat.
Under such conditions the thin wall
ed safe is as fireproof as the thick wall
ed safe would be under the conditions
in which it is used in the old style
buildings, for use in which the thick
walled safe is still commonly sold.'-

$4,000 EXPRESS ROBBERY.


Chicago, Aug. 20.-The mystery of a
$4,000 express robbery is perplcxing
officials of the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy Railroad company, the CONNER
cial National bank of Chicago and the
Adams Express company.
The $4,000, which was in bills of
large denomination. was shipped Friday
morning by the bank through the express
company over the Burlington road. It's
destination was Burlington, Ia, and it
was drawn to the account of the rail
road company on the order of ]. G. Peas
ley, the vice president and treasurer
Somewhere between Chicago and Bur-
lington the package containing the mon
ey was opened, the currency abstracted,
some folds of brown paper substituted
and the parcel restored to its former ap-
pearance.
When the huge theft was discovered,
there was CONSERVATION. So few per-
sons had known of the withdrawal from
the bank and the ensuing removal to the
express car that the officials hoped at
first that it would be an easy matter to
trace the crime home. But up to last
night little progress had been made by
the score or more detectives detailed on
the case. They found that the men on
the run to Burlington were long and
trusted employees, and suspicion was re-
moved from the messenger at once. This
has only made the affair more compli-

TAKE WATER FOR MEDICINE.
A Health Producer Which Is Avail
able Everywhere

There is no doubt that we do not
drink enough. Our bodies consist
largely of water, and the average man
needs to drink from four to six pints
of water daily in order to maintain
health. This is the amount of water
eliminated from the body by means of
he kidneys, the skin and lungs. 1t is
evident that a fresh supply is constant
ly needed to supply this lost aid in the
process of digestion and carry away
waste matter.
If the amount of water imbibed Is
not sufficient for all this, the health
must suffer. Air. water and food are
the essentials of life in the order given.
person can fast a long time-eX-
periments have proved this-but that
same person could not get along with
out water for that length of time.
AS n usual thing women are the ones
who suffer the most from an INSULT
cheney of water. Mothers should see
to it that their children have plenty of
water to drink
There is II diversity of opinion re-
garding drinking at meals. Some as
sert that the practice is injurious, as it
dilutes the gastric juice. Others again
claim that glassful of pure drinking
water taken during t4e process of mas
tication is healthful. On one point,
however, all authorities agree-namely,
that ice water is injurious.
Generally speaking, the theory advo-
Gated by the best physicians nowadays
is to drink often and much. 1t cleanses
the system, increases circulation and
helps to make clear complexion.
Therefore, We men. and women, the lat
ter especially, drink. Take clear, pure,
