RECOGNlTIONn OF GALLANTRY
SCORE OF woRKI OF THE ARMY
BREvET FdARD.
Reward. to BE Be.+6.sed for bravery
in the Spanish, Philippine and
Chinese Hosiilitie..

The army brevet board, headed by Gen.
Macarthur, met at the Lemon building
this forenoon. The work of the board is
to be comprehensive. tAseepe having been
greatly enlarged. While it was originally
intended that only brevets earned in the
Chinese and Philippine campaigns should
be considered, the board has now been
charged to include the Spanish American
war operations. which, of course, involved
the Cuban campaign. All of the nomina.
tions sent to the Senate last session recon-
mending brevets for this Spanish war serv-
ice have been withdrawn and the present
board will consequently have a clean field.
There are more than 1000 of these nomi-
nations the result of the work of the
Schwan board, which dealt with Cuban
brevets, and of board, headed by Gen.
Chaffee at Manila, which made recommen-
dations for brevets based upon service in
the earlier stages of the Philippine cam
paign. 1t has been deemed well to recon-
init all these nominations to the present
board, which, having in hand the whole
subject, can arrange a more uniform and
equitable system of awards than would be
possible for a board dealing with only one
phase of the campaign. This board may
also recommend the award of medals of
honor, so in view of the wiping out of ali
previous action it is possible that medal
may be recommended for bestowal upon
Col. Theodore Roosevelt, now President OF
the United States, for distinguished gallan-
try in the Santiago campaign. There will
be without doubt many other distinguished
names on the new list of brevets, and in
view of the more equitable arrangement to
be had it is expected that the Senate will
act upon the brevet nominations without
fail next session.
No action on the part of Congress is re-
Quired in the case of medals of honor, the
President being the final authority
While the fact that brevet had been rec
commended to Congress for Col Roosevelt
was published at the time the nominations
We're sent to the Senate, it appears that
the fact that there were two separate rec
concentrations and the exact bases for the
boards action were not made public. The
adjutant general furnishes these transcripts
from the proceedings Of the board: S'Lfeut
Col. Theodore Roosevelt, 1st United States
Volunteer Cavalry, to be brevetted colonel

For gallantry in battle, Santiago de
Cuba. July 1. 1898. Lieut.. Col. Theodore
Roosevelt, to be brevetted brigadier gen
eral."
The board now in session is composed of
the following members:
Major General Arthur. Macarthur, Col.
III. c. Hasbrouck. Artillery Corps. and Col.
Francis Moore 11th Cavalry, with Cap
tain Robert A. Brown, 4th Cavalry, as re-

The catarrhal poison is in the blood and the

purpose are antiseptics scientifically known as
Eucalyptol, GuaicoiY Sanguinaria and Hydrastin
and while each of these have been successfully
used separately yet 1t has been difficult to get
them all combined in palatable, convenient
and efficient form.

THE WORTH OF DIAMONDS.
Value of the Precious Stones Artih.
cfaIIy Maintained.

| Value of the Precious Stones Artifi-
| cfaI1y Maintained.
From the London Express.
| Diamond dealers say that If 1t were not
| for the operation of the great De Beers
| monopoly the precious stone, loved of all
women and most men, might be cheap and
| vulgar.
For years the price of diamonds has been
rising steadily. The war has had little or
nothing to do with it. Irrespective of raids
| and sieges, without count of income tax
| and cost of labor in the mines, the price
| has gone up, until It is now 100 per cent
higher than 1t was twelve years ago, when
the great diamond trust was first formed.
| In the early days of the trust the members
were Messrs Porjes. Barnato. Mosenthal
and Dunkelsbuhler, all of which firms had
their representatives on the board of the
| De Beers Company. Today the trust is in
/ the hands OF five well-known firms
Messrs. Wernher, Belt & Co.. Messrs. Bern
Brothers, Messrs. L. & A. Abrams, and
| Mr.. Dunkelsbuhler.
| These five firms are the customers of the
| De Beers Company, taking from the mine
! and extent, it Is said, of f4O00,00O every
year.
Is that the limit of production of the
diamond mine? People who know Kimber-
|
! put. II the De Beers Company chose it is
| believed they could easily multiply next
| years production ten-foId The stones are
| there in those wonderful holes at kimber-
| ley, and little extra labor would bring
! them out in such marvellous quantities that
every butchers wife in Smithfeld market
might go to the play in the necklet and
tiara of a duchess.
Very naturally, the chief owners of the
! mines and the sellers Of diamonds, who are
practically one and the same, have no in
tention Of allowing the market to be glut-
ted with cheap stones. Having the chief
center of diamond production in their
ands, they. can, control the output, and are
doing SO with mathematical nicety. ii51.2
But" asks my lady, aghast at the price
| she must pay for a new suite Of diamonds
| for the coronation, why are they not con-
| tent with the monopoly? Why has the price
been raised year by year?'
Because" said dealer to whom an
Express representative put the question.
| ''the trust must make provision against a
rainy day. At present 1t has all the known
| diamond fields in It's hands 1t cannot.
| however, provide against new discoveries
] and the terrible catastrophe of cheap dfa-
| monds unless it builds up reserve fund
| big enough to buy out every competitor
| That is why, though the price of diamonds
| rises, the value of De Beers shares remains
practically stationary

The ordinary field or market mushroom
is not suitable for canning. The French
champignon Cultivated button mushroom}
is grown for this especial purpose and cul-
tivated in mushroom caves from the spawn.
These are the canned mushrooms in COM
mon use in cooking. The ordinary mush-
room may be dried out, but We would not
advise canning unless you cultivate the
white button variety mentioned. The dried
mushrooms give more of the true flavor of
the fungi than the canned. Dry by peeling
and trimming them. Place on pans in an
oven nearly cold-a bakers oven is the
best-and keep them tied up closely in
paper bags in dry place.

 The struggle between Santa Fe and San Augustine on the question of prl irity Oi settlement has about worn them out. San Augustine pants upon her sandy shore, while poor old Santa fe grins discousoiately from amid her ruins. Tucson has not heretofore c,aimed any thing but climate and prosperity, but now she rises to eX- plain that these two hOary-headed sinners have been wasting their de- cllning years in trying to prove pri- vate property in what belongs to nelther.n
 Mir. Hilzinger comedies, for the sake of argument, the claim of Santa te that it was settled iu 1905. His description of the settlement of San Augustine Is noteworthy for it's spark ling originality.
 ''ln 1562 Admiral Colingi obtained from Charles TX of France, the privil- ege of planting d French Protestant colony in the New World, and finally succeeded in establishing one on the River St. Johns, in Florida. The col onlsts had just become comfortably settled when the Spaniards, who clas- sified heretics with agitators, bounced upon them.
 "Ou August 2S, l595 the same year the Spsniards entered New Mexico to ChristidnIze the Indians, Pedro Me. nendez, wlth company of :, 400, de- scended upon the Huguenots and ex- terminated them, but left the alligators and mosquitoes.
 Philip II was then proclaimed monarch oi North America, or what. ever It might thereafter be called, and san Augustin as it was then spel.ed was founded with due pomp and ceremony
 Mir. HIlzlnger gives the date of set clement uI ucson as 1555, some half century earlier than the founding of santa Fe or San Augustine. He bases hls ciaim upon authentic documents, including parchment discovered among tho records of the old mission of san X ,vIer, dated l5j2, when the settlement was ordered to be estab- llshed, and attached to which is an ac- count of the founding of Tucson, written in the hand of Marcos de Niza, who explored Arizona in l53D. - PbDplIik k,.puDlican
