Psychological examinations of some of
them were made and it was discovered
that they were filled with bubonic
plague bacilli. Pending further consid-
Grafton the board of health ordered a
rat proof fence built around the whole
town of Kahului, including the Hawai-
ian Commercial store and warehouses.
The people are removed and the entire

A REMARKABLE GIFT.
gao, 900 Given Away; the Eminent Ply.
stefan and Scientist, FRANKLIN MILES,
NJ ID. LII. II Gives Two Dollars and
Half Worth of His Marvellous
New Treatment Free,

Such remarkable generosity has sell
dom, IL ever, been equaled by a physi-
clan. It will enable many thousands of
people suffering from lingering diseases
OF the nerves, brain, heart, liver or
stomach, to obtain medicine free of
charge and to test the marvellous cura-
tive properties of DR.. Miles latest Per-
sonal Treatment.
Few physicians will permit every one
of their patients to test their skill and
their treatment free of charge, because
few have such unlimited confidence in
their remedies born of wonderful sue
cess. What can be fairer and more lib
eral?
Many hundreds of references from
Bishops, Ministers, Business Men, Far
mers and their wives sent free. DR..
Miles New Personal Treatment has
cured many hundreds of cases pro-
nounced 'incurable." 1t has a most re-
markable improvement on the usual
treatment and is eminently scientific.
The eminent divine and editor, Rev.
VIM. w. Bell, of Dayton, Ohio, says
editorially in the Sunday School Union:
I'VE desire to state that from personal
acquaintance, we know DIR. Miles to be
most skilled specialist, a man who
has spared neither labor nor money to
keep himself abreast of the great ad-
vancement in medical science. He is
withal thorough and conscientious
gentleman and his offices are con-
stantly thronged with people who come
from all parts of the country to avail
themselves of his very great skill"
Mr.. Julius Keister, of $50 Michigan
avenue, Chicago, testifies that Mr..
Miles cured him after ten able physi-
clans had failed. Mr.. F. Held 70 Cur
tbs street, Grand Rapids, cured after
failure of eleven physicians. Mrs. Liz
zie Renfrew, Wellington, Ark. Mrs w.
A. Warren, of jamestown, N. Y, were
entirely cured.
Do not fail to write to the Dr. Miles
Medical Association, 201-209 State ST.,
Chicago, for examination blank, and
$3.50 worth of Treatment Free Just
suited to your case. 16-3w

Grim Grips Grasp
Fastens Alike Upon Young and Old. The
Delicate, the Weak, the Inhrm and the
WornOut Fall Easy Victims.

The microbes OF La Grippe are every
where. They contaminate the water
we drink, they infest the food we eat,
they borough In our clothing and the
very air we breathe is swarming with
them. They are so small that thou
sands Of them can be clustered on the
point OF needle, yet they multiply so
rapidly that the whole body may be-
come infested with them in few hours.
To the healthy and strong grip
germs need have no terrors, for they
cannot live In a body that is full OF
nerve force and vital power. But to
the weak, delicate, rundown and ex-
hausted they are an ever-present me-
mace. To all such, whether old or
young, DR.. Miles Nervine offers the
best and surest means of guarding
against these deatb-dealing microbes.

FRANCHISE REVOKED.
Barberton People Seem Favor
able to the New Doyles-
town Company.
Special to News-Democrat.

SpeCldl 10 NeWS-btHlOCIdt.
MassiIlon, March 15.-At meeting of
the village council of Barberton held
Monday night the franchise granted to
the Akron and Cuyahoga Falls Rapid
Transit company in 1894 was revoked
and the company was ordered to take
up the tracks that they had lately laid
for the purpose Of holding the fran
chise. This Is the end of a long and
bitter struggle in the council of that viii
lage. In the year 1894 the company
whose franchise has Just been revoked
got a grant from the village to build
an electric railway in the streets. They
failed, however, to make any move in
the matter until the Barberton, Doyles-
town and Massillon company applied
for franchise last June. At that time
their grant had been forfeited practi-
cally by the failure to build. They i'm
mediately went to work to put in some
tracks. They also did all they could to
prevent the other company from get
ting a franchise. When Mr.. Townsend
went before the council for a grant it
was found that he was short 154 feet
on the street in his consents. Now that
the other company has been ordered
to take up their tracks Mr.. Townsend
will go after the necessary consents and
expects to secure a franchise in a short
time. He will then be in shape to go
right head with the entire road as he
will then have the both terminal fran
oh
Dover yesterday but will return to this
city in few days.

ENGLAND'S NAVY
 NEEDS REPAIRING
Many Ships Manned With Old
 Style Guns.
DEFECT MUST BE REMEDIED
Sixteen Battleships and Eight Armored Cruisers Now Have to Depend
 on Muzzle Loaders-Could ' Be Easily Destroyed

London, Ky, February s-since the war has strained the resources of the military system, Englishmen have been troubled by the possibility that sea fighting might show naval defects which would weaken the first line of defense In which the country has placed such com plete trust This apprehension has found expression. During the last two or three days in half, the newspapers in England the governments attention has been spec ially directed ito the muzzle loading guns. Even public men have been painfully sur prised to learn that sixteen battleships and eight armored cruisers depend upon muzzle loaders. This means that smaller, bat faster ships with modern guns would be able to stay one or two thousand yards out of range and then disable in leisurely fashion about one-third of the vessels which appear in the navy as first class"
 The admiralty is understood to be pre- pairing to remedy this defeat, and to pro- pose also considerable additions that will preserve the present ratio of GrGeat Brit aims naval strength to that of France or Germany.
 A supplementary army estimate to March 3l was laid pro forma before tine house of commons yesterday, but was not made pub lie. It is reported that uhe call is for zO,OVO,- 600 pounds, -whrch would make the cost of the war up to that date 30,000000.
 The maintenance of 200,00O men at the front, 1t is estimated, costs between GS,0O0,- 900 and 930,000000 per month.

JUDGE TAFT WILL
 HEAR ARGUMENTS
In Regard to Issuing an Injunc- tion Against Kentucky EIec-
 ton Commissioners.

Cincinnati, February S.-Judge William H. Taft, who has just been appointed as pres ident of the Philippine commission, to-day gave notice that on next Monday at D. m. he would hear arguments on the petl- tion of the state officers of Kentucky other than governor and lieutenant governor, for a restraining order against the three mem- bers of the Kentucky state board of elec- tion commissioners and the contestants for state offices, other than governor and lieu tenant governor. The legislature in Ken lucky hears and decides contests for gov ernors and iieutenant-gov and con- tests for other state officers come before the state board of election commissioners, sitting as contest board, and in which said board has final jurisdiction.
 This petition for an injunction against the present state board of election commis- sioners and the democratic contestants for minor state offices is therefore not one af- fecting Governor Taylor and Lieutenant Governor Marshall, and will not conflict with the conferences for an agreement that was begun at Louisville last Monday, and whoh are still in progress at that city and at Frankfort.
 
 of these minor state offices shall not be interferred with in the discharge of their duties, it is readily seen that the republi- can secretary of state might not attest the prominence of Governor Beckham, and ithat there might be some dispute as to the use of the seal of the commonwealth. It is also pointed out by those in the lob- bies who are commenting on thhe applca- tion of the suit, that the state auditor would endorse and the state treasurer pay out funds for the maintena nee of the mih- tia under the command of Adjutant-Gen- Jeral Collier, etc.
 There is no end to the applications in practice under the injunction, according to the comment of those who accompany the attorneys, but the attorneys themselves re- fuse to say anything. These attorneys maintained absolute silence all day, and refused to state even the title of the case of them tonight.

THE PLAGUE SITUATION
Out of Forty-six Gases Forty Persons
 Have Died

Washington. February S.-Surgeon-Gen- eral Sternberg received a report today from Major Blair Taylor, the medical offi- cer with the smaA detachment of troops at Honolulu, showing the dreadful fatality of duhe bubonic plague at that place and the great distress prevailing among the people in consequence of the destruction oR a large part of the Chinese district by fire. His report is dated January 22 and says up to that date there have been forty six cases of bubonic plague, with forty deaths.
 Tne report says:
 1.-The whole town has been distrioted, and each house is inspected twice a day. On the 2Otfl, while burning a part of China town, the fire got away and destroyed nearly the whole of the district, rendering almost 1000 As3aitics and natives homeless. These people are now kept in different places under guard and are being fed at public expense. It is feared, however that many of them got away dn the confusion ws-h such off their household effects as they could carry and may spread the in- nectton far and wide"

The Renewal Cooking Process

Knoxville, Tenn, February S.-Tests of
 the Renewal coking process, which have been going on in this city for the past six weeks, have been completed, and the re- suits have been eminent1y satisfactory to those interested. High grade coke was made from all soft coals in East Tennes- see. Heretofore this has been impossible by other methods. The gas which in other processes goes to waste, by the Renewal process Is carried off of the ovens through pipes and utilized. It was demonstrated that the gas secured from one oven will furnish its own fuel and enough for an- other. It is thus figured that 50 per cent of the gas produced can be sold for do- nestle purposes. The utilization of the gas and other by-products of tar and ammonia 1t Is claimed, makes the Renewal the cheap est known process for making coke.

New York, February S-William F.
