UNMIXABLE BABIES.
Their Names written on Adhesive
Plaster and stuck on
Their Backs.

There will be no pinafore business Of
mixing the babies up" in the obstet-
rical ward of the Johns Hopkins hos
pital, says the Baltimore Sun, if the
physicians and attendants in charge
can prevent it. Usually there are from
one to two dozen newborn babies in
the ward and TO the inexperienced eye
they all look much alike. Even those
accustomed to handle them sometimes
have to look closely for distinguishing
features or marks on the mites of hu-
manity. When the nurses are being
changed frequently in the course of
their duties, the difficulties are in
creased Of readily telling one baby
from another. The doctors have hit
upon happy solution of the difficulty.
Each baby is tagged and it is tagged
in unique way. On small square Of
adhesive plaster is written the haby's
name. This plaster tag is then stuck
tightly on the baby's back just between
the shoulder blades. The tag is water
proof, so 1t is not affected by the baths
given the baby. 1t holds on tightly un-
til the time comes for the baby and its
mother to leave the hospital. when the
tag may be readily pulled off without
causing the baby any pain.
Some persons have thought that the
tagging was necessary to distinguish
white from colored babies, but the
physicians say that this is not the case.
While all newborn babies are red, they
say the babies of white parents are a
pinkish color, while the slightest mix
tur OF negro blood will give an unmis-
taxable reddish tinge to the baby's
skin, in addition to the other charac.

BRYAN IN CHICAGO.
Consults With Harrison and Altgeld
-Sympathizes With Beers.

Chicago, April 30.-What the Beers
would be warranted in expecting in case
the Democratic party were returned to
power at the coming election was indi-
Gated by Mr.. Bryan during his visit
here after his attention had been drawn
to the days cables from Europe saying
that the hopes of the South African
republics were centered upon America
should Mckinley be defeated-and
Russia.
1.-The Democratic party" said Mr..
Bryan, would express sympathy for
these burghers fighting for the right
to govern themselves, and the SYM
pathy of a great nation like the United
States is a moral factor that has
weight. The good offices of this nation
can be rendered according to the terms
of the new Hague treaty at the proper
time and in earnest These offers of
friendly service would have great in
fuence.
During my recent western trip-in
fact, wherever have been-I find the
sentiment overwhelmingly in favor of
the Beers. Any statement that the
natural sympathies of this country are
for the British is a perversion of the
facts that cannot misleal observers, but
whose sole effect may be the delusion
of England in a way that is likely to
end in an unpleasant awakening to the

TEST FOR THE HOLLAND.
Submarine Boat Will Be Taken to
Newport.

New York, April 30.-To definitely de-
termine the value of the submarine boat
Holland for naval purposes the navy
department has directed that she be
taken to the torpedo station at New
port, where she will be exhaustiyely
tested.
The determination of the department
to send the Holland to Newport is based
upon recommendation made by Rear
Admiral O'Neil, chief of ordnance.
Rear Admiral O'Neil desires to ascer-
tain what, if any, defects exist in the
vessel, what her advantages are and
whether it will be advisable for the
government to continue the construc-
ton of such craft.
The torpedo station at Newport is
said to be an ideal place for the expert
mentS. officers and men at that point
can be detailed to man the craft. There
are tugs available to keep close watch
Of the strange boat and rescue her
crew in case anything of an untoward
character happens. Rear Admiral
O'Neil has given very careful instruc-
tions to Commander Mason, inspector
in charge of the torpedo station
The trial of the vessel will be at first
under the supervision of an expert
designated by the Holland company AS
soon as the officers and men who volun-
teer to serve on the Holland are we'll
acquainted with the craft, the expert
will not be required, and the test under
service conditions will be then made
The Holland is now at the Washington
navy yard and she will be sent to New
port through the canals.

PROTEST FROM MANILA.
Against Excessive Taxation Levied on
the Island Commerce.

New York, April 30.-A special to the
World from Washington, says:
There will be laid before congress to-
morrow memorial from the American
Chamber of Commerce at Manila pro-
testing vigorously against the excessive
taxation exacted by the United States
military government.
H r. Lewis, former president of the
Chamber of Commerce. was delegated
by that body to place the grievances of
the merchants before congress. He has
arrived at Portland, Ore, and will pro-
coed to Washington Immediately.
The memorial is in part as follows:
eve unhesitatingly declare that Amer
lean trade in the Philippines is almost
impossible under the present regime,
and that it will be utterly destroyed
unless immediate relief is had. Many of
the laws found too harsh for practical
application and winked at by the Span
iSh authorities are being enforced I'M
der American rule with all the rigor of
military exaction, thus sitting the in
centive to business.
1.-THE internal revenue department is
but a pawnshop where men put up their
salaries and business profits for the
privilege of laboring and using their
capital-an importing house of the first
class paying upward of 500 per month
license.
while the cost of living has trebled
within the jurisdiction of the United
States and rice, the staple food product
of the islands, is almost understandable
by the people, we are sustaining tax
on flour of so per cent, so that a barrel
of flour purchasahle in the United
States at less than SO gold must be sold
at S12 Mexican in Manila"
The memorial declares that formerly
goods were admitted to the Philippines
from Spain practically free, and later
a tax for harbor construction was i'm
posed and enormous increases were
made in specific duties
Regret is expressed that the Ameri-
can retain mot only the excessive spec
! ific duties, but also the tax for harbor
construction (Which. by the way, is not
being constructed the per cent on an
arbitrary and excessive valuation, a
consumption tax on flour and many
other articles. and surfaces of varying
degree, until the cost of imported goods
is in many instances is beyond the
means of any but the most prosperous
people"

IRVING GETS. 100000.
Enormous Receipts of the Engage
ments Played in Chicago.

Chicago, April 30.-Chicago patrons
of the histrionic art paid 100000 to at
tend the performances given by Sir
Henry Irving, Miss Ellen Terry and the
London Lyceum company during the
four weeks they were in this city while
making their present tour of the coun-
try The last performance was given
Saturday night at Powers theater with
1.-The Merchant of Venice" as the bill
and the house crowded to the doors.
People were turned away before
o'clock. Manager Powers stated 1t was
the largest audience in the history OF
the theater.
Sir Henry Irving and his colleagues
have taken a small fortune from the
city. Three unprecedented weeks were
played at the Columbia theater end
ing March 8. While the company was
touring the chief cities OF the west thaI
nlavhouse was destroyed by FIRE, and
the return engagement of one week was
transferred to Powers theater. Only
six performances were given last week,
whereas at the Columbia the number
reached seven a week with one matinee.

RETURNED TO GOTHAM
J. w. Gates and John Lambert Are
Ready to Have Summons Served
on Them.

New York, April 3O.-John w. Gates
and John Lambert, chairman of the
board of directors and president. re-
spectively, of the American Steel and
Wire company, are in town ready to
face any legal proceedings which have
been or may be instituted against them
in connection with their conduct Of
affairs. They arrived at the Waldorf
Astoria from Chicago at 1870 o'clock
Sunday. With them was Isaac L. Ell
wood, the vice president of the COM
pany. They were Joined at the hotel
by Max Pam, counsel for the corpora
ton, and at once held a conference A
series of questions was sent up to their
rooms, Mr.. Gates and Mr.. Lambert
having declined to see reporters. 1t was
asked whether Mr. Gates and Mr. Lam
bert had resigned from their official po-
SitionS with the American Steel and
Wire company, whether any legal
papers had been served upon Mr.. Gates
or Mr.. Lambert, and whether they had
any reply to make to the alleged false
statement said to have been issued con-
corning the affairs of the American
Steel and Wire company. At midnight
Messrs. Gates and Lambert made the
following statement:
Both Messrs. Gates and Lambert
came here as stated expressly to re-
spond to any process or summons IF any
kind which anyone may have issued
against them.
LAS yet no paper or process has been
served or presented
ANY charge that either one made
any false statement concerning the af-
fairs or condition of the American Steel
and Wire company is unqualifedly
false.
Counsel has been retained and au-
thorized to accept service of any process

Proof From Utter Strangers.

The statement which follows. like all
that have preceded it on this subject,
IS from Topeka 1t is not from some
distant corner of the Union Topeka
people cannot finch from testimony
like this
Mr.. Henry Page, No. 302 East Fourth
street, a resident of Topeka for twenty
years, says: "A five weeks attack Of
grippe left me as it does many others,
with a weakness of the kidneys. The
pain across the loins and the trouble
with the kidney secretions, particularly
noticeable at night, were, to say the
least, annoying, and I thought If Doan's
Kidney Pills performed half what they
promised, the treatment might help me.
I procured a box at Rowley & Shows
drug store, corner of Sixth street and
Kansas avenue, and took it. The treat
ment was very satisfactory. To say I
endorse Doan's Kidney Pills is a mild
way of expressing my opinion of that
remedy"

CORN KITCHEN READY.
American Maize Propaganda at Paris
Astonishes the French.

Paris, April 3O.-The corn kitchen
which has begun an American maize
propaganda in connection with the Uni
ted States exhibit at the exposition is
fast approaching completion, and will
be ready to start operations Monday.
Colonel Carr, aided by Mr.. Snow, has
already got a number of prominent
restaurants within the grounds and
also the famous Duval establishments,
to promise to put corn foods, cooked
in genuine American style, on their bills
of fare. This is certain to prove the
quickest method for introducing this
product Of the United States to French
tables.
The cooks in the Duval and other res
taurants are to be taught the real
American methods of preparing corn by
a negro nanny from the south and
also by a French chef, who at one time
presided over the Chicago Auditorium
kitchen.
This is going to be one of the most
curious and interesting attractions of
the exposition. Even French critics,
who doubt whether corn can be intro
duced on a large scale into France, say
that the scheme deserves a trial and re-
fleets credit on the enterprising persons
who conceived it. The originality of the
plan seems to interest them most.

MAY BE LEW WALLACE
Who Will Be Chosen to Settle With
Turkey.


Turkey.
New York, April s0.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says:
Though. it is the purpose Of tne adj
ministration to continue pressing the
Sublime Porte to pay the American mis-
sionary claims pending against it, those
acquainted with the character of the
claims believe they greatly overesti-
mate the value of the property de-
stroyed.
The total loss which the missionaries
at Aarpoot say they sustained as a re-
suit of the outbreak at that point in
1898 amounted to $S7 ,9S5, OF which S43,-
ings damaged, $32,677 the personal
losses of the missionaries, and $11,6 sos
the loss on stock and apparatus.
The Rev. c. H. Wheeler apparently
suffered the greatest loss He estl-
mates that 5000 will be required to
property reimburse him. Among his
effects destroyed were notes and bonds
which he values at $4,000 and the ac-
crued interest is put at $1,000 more.
Clothing and materials which he pos
sessed and which were damaged he
values at s., 342; furniture at $1,000;
bedding at $3.50; provisions, fuel and
medicine, $3.50, and boots and Shoes $50.
The Rev. c. F. Gates apparently wore
more expensive shoes than Mr.. Wheeler,
for he asserts that those he lost were
worth $7Z. DR.. Gates lost clothing val
ued at $3.50, food valued at $132; sad
dlery, $146; horse, donkey and cows,
$1SS, and bedding, $379
Miss E. c. Wheeler values the cloth
ing she lost at $113S, bedding at S215,
and photographs and pictures at $500
Her boots and shoes were worth SIC.
In case Minister Straus should decide
not to return to Turkey it is likely that
the name of former Minister Lew Wal
lace will be considered as his successor.
General Wallace is now in Washington.
He represented. the United States in
Turkey some years ago and sustained
the most friendly relations with the
Sublime Porte.

FOR WELL PEOPLE.
An Easy Way to Keep Well.

It Is easy to keep well If we would
only observe each day a few simple
rules Of health.
The all important thing is to keep
the stomach right and to do this it is
not necessary to diet or to follow a set
rule or bill of fare. Such pampering
simply makes a capricious appetite and
Ieellng that certain favorite articles
OF food must be avoided.
Prof WiechoId gives pretty good adj
vice on this subject. He says: IT am
6e years old and have never had a Sc
rious illness and at the same time my
lie has been largely an indoor one, but
i early discovered that the Wav TO keen
healthy was to keep healthy stomach.
not Dy eating bran crackers or dieting
OF any sort; on the contrary I ALWAYS
eat what my appetite Graves, but for
the past eight years have made il a
daily practice to take one or two
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each
meal and I attribute my robust health
Tor a man of my age to the regular
daily use Of Stuart's Tablets.
My physician first advised me to use
them because he said they were per
1ectly harmless and were not a secret
patent medicine, but contained only the
natural dlgestives, peptones and di-
astase, and after using them few
weeks have never ceased to thank him
for his advice.
I honestly believe the habit Of taking
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after meals
is the real health habit, because their
use brings health to the sick and ailing
and preserves health to the we'll and
strong"
Men and women past so years of age
need safe digestive after meals to in
sure perfect digestion and to ward off
disease, and the safest, best known and
most widely used is Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
They are found in every well regulat-
ed household from Maine to California
and in Great Britain and Australia are
RAPIDLY pushing their way into popular
favor.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, full sized packages, at 50 cents
and for a weak stomach a so cent pack
age viii often do fifty dollars worth OF
