mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious

seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous

used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation OF undi-

liver, stimulate the nervous and organic
action of the system, and that is oil

LIEUTENANT MEADEs DEATH.

A cablegram was received 10 Win
chester, Va, on Saturday announcing
the death of Lieutenant Meade, OF Mill.
wood, Va, which occurred at Manila
from typhoid fever.
Lieutenant Meade was a son of Pre-
fessor S. Key Meade. sr., and was born
on his fathers estate, Prospect Hill,
near Millwood, "a years ago. He was
graduated from the West Point Mill
tafy Academy at the outbreak OF toe
Spanish American war, and was imme-
distely assigned to one oil the regiments
lu Cuba. Wolfe there he was severely
wouoded ia the srm, and was brought
Jack to the United States for treat
ment. He is survived by his parents,
one sister and three brothers
About o month ago Lieutenant
Meade was detached from his regular
regiment and placed in command of an
independent company by General OTIS.
While serving in this capacity he, with
Lieutenant Boyle, of Baltimore, distln'
guisned themselves i'll making a night
attack on a party OF FilipinOs after
tne insurgents had been driven out ol
Balamba, d large town In LuzOO. They
entrenehed themselves OIL the outskirts
Of the town, and made themselves very
troublesome TO. the American troops,
who were ordered lot TO leave the
town. The Fllipinos made nightly
.alIies upon the American outposts, H.
hicting severe losses upon our troops,
and making this Filipino entrenchmeDt
anything but an agreeable neigbbor.
Finally, Lieutenant Meade volunteered
10 disperse the insurgents upon a plan
of his own, which, being approved oy
the commanding officer, was executed
oy him. Selecting squad OF twenty
men, of which Lieutenant Boyle was
one, they proceeGed TO the Filipino en-.
trenchment by crawling on their hands
and knees. This gallant Virginian
completely surprised the insurgents, re
| pulslng them with such great loss that
taey stopped troubling our troops.
Lieutenant Meade received honorat lie
mention from General OIis for the par
ne took 10 this sklrmsb. He was 10
command of this independent company
at the time OF his death. Lieutenant
Meade was grandson OF the late Bisb'
op Meade, of Virginia. He was highly
educated, and possessed q very bright
| mind.

AN INTERESTING ExPERIMENT.--Dr.
William K. Brooks, of Geneva, N. T.,
has succeeded in photographing objects
solely by the light from the plant W.
nus By this is not meant photograph
inc the planet itself, which has been
done many times. The experiments
were conducted within the dome OF the
obs ryatory, SO that all outside light
was excluded except that which came
from Venus through the open shutter
of the dome. The time was the DARK
est hour of the night after the planet
had risen and before the approach OF
dawn. The action Of the light from
Venus was much stronger than antici'
pated, the Photographic plates bein
remarkably clear, intense and fully
timed. The experiment will be con-
tinued every clear night. DR.. Brooks
was an early worker in photography
and has used it for many years in bis
astronomical research.

A MAIL

Secured by . sts9s Line to Protect the
Bullion Carried.
Until very recent years." said a
man who used to live in the west, to
the New Orleans Times-D Democrat,
there has always been more or less
scandal connected with the star.
routes Of the postal service Star
routes are those yer which mail is
carried by special contract, and the ex-
pense of keeping up some Of them has
certainly been monstrous. In other
cases, however, the price paid has been
ridiculously low. l remember one
route in Nevada where the service was
kept up over a distance of about eighty
miles for S. q year, when the actual ex-
pense was $25 a trip. How that con-
tract was really made profitable in
wolves a curious little story, which l
will tell without mentioning names,
because the parties interested still
have business relations with the de-
partment. The stretch Of road to which
l refer lay between two pretty lively
mining camps, and a stage line plying
over it did a very fair business. Among
other things it frequently carried bull
lion, and holdups were of no uncom-
mon occurrence. The rugged, lonely
character of the country was peculiarly
favorable to that kind of deviltry, and
the stage people were at their wits end
to know what to do to stop it. At last
thew had a hripht idoa and. MT in a
bid for carrying the mail, which had
been handled by a private contractor, a
cart and a mule. They made their bid
IS so as to be certain Of getting the
job, and then had a heavy, iron-bound
compartment constructed In the boot
of each of the stages for carrying both
the pouches and their regular express
matter. To break it open would have
taken at least ten or fifteen minutes,
and that meant delaying the mails.
The Western desperate has a holy hor-
ror of running foul of Uncle Sam, be-
cause he knows that means relentless
hunting down, with all the resources of
the government behind the pursuit,
and as soon as the stages became mail
carriers they ceased to be mOlested. So
the %five-dollar contract vas really a
good business proposition. After the
country became more settled it was
kept up merely as an advertisement. 1t
gave the line a certain air of stability,
like the words Government Depos-
tory on the window of a bank"

Acid or basic open hearth steel is

four pumps, with a separate engine-for

so arranged that any of the engines
can be supplied with steam from any
of the boilers, an advantage by which,
with only engine boiler and pump, the
