Why We wink.

No satisfactory determination has
been made OF the reason we wink.
Some suppose that the descent and re-
turn OF the lid over the eye serve to

labor or vision. If only for an lnap-

A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.
Something New Under
The Sum-"

All doctors have tried to cure catarrh BY
the use of powders, acid gases, inhalers
and drugs In paste form. Their powders
dry up the mucous membranes causing
them TO crack open and bleed. The pow
erful acids used in the inhalers have en-
tirely eaten away the same membranes
that their makers have aimed to cure,
while pastes and Ointments cannot reach
the disease. An old and experienced
practitioner who has for many years made
a close study and speciality of the treat
ment of catarrh, has at last perfected a
treatment which, when faithfully used,
not only relieves at once, but perma-
nently cures catarrh by removing the
cause, stopping the discharges, and cur
ing all inflammation. It is the only rem
edy known to science that actually
reaches the afflicted parts. This wonder
ful remedy is known as "Snuffies, the
guaranteed catarrh cure" and is sold at
the extremely low price of one dollar,
each package containing internal and ex-
ternal medicine sufficient for a full
months treatment, and everything nee
essary to its perfect use.
''Snuffles" is the only perfect catarrh
cure ever made, and is now recognized as
the only safe and positive cure for that
annoying and disgusting disease 1t cures
all Inflammation quickly and perma-
nently, and is also wonderfully quick TO
relieve hay fever or cold in the head.
Catarrh when neglected often leads to
consumption-''Snuffies" will save you if
YOU use il at once. 1t is no ordinary
remedy, but complete treatment which
is positively guaranteed to cure catarrh in
any form or stage if used according to di-
rections which accompany each package.
Don't delay, but send for it at once, and
write full particulars as to your cOndi-
tion, and you will receive special advice
from the discoverer of this wonderful
remedy regarding your case without cost
to you beyond the regular price of
''Snuffles" the guaranteed catarrh cure. F"

of Secretary Of the Treasury Gage, died

States troops from China, were made
public at the department to-day They
designate Company B of the Ninth In
fantry as the legation guard and Maj.
f. B. Robertson OF that regiment is de-
tailed as commander. Mai Robertson's
attention Is especially invited to the fact
that the troops under his command are
stationed in a foreign country with which
the United States Is on terms of friend
ship. The guard must therefore not be
used aggressively unless In defence of
the American legation or persons and
property OF American citizens in its inn
mediate vicinity. The guard will repel
attacks made by Chinese on the Ameri-
can legation or its own position. and IL
necessary to do so may fire upon the as
sailants II may cooperate with other
foreign troops for the defense of the le-
cations in event of attack being made
on same by any Chinese forces.
Mai. Robertson is instructed to consult
freely with the United States minister

of training it is sometimes difficult for
US to agree on certain ceremonial

for whom we have taken to our hearts

for wife and family is common to all
mankind. Our sympathy for the Pres

could be, were it expressed by his own

Manila May 7.-Aguinaldo, in an inter
view with the correspondent of the Asso-
cfated Press. to-day expressed the opinion
that the American government of the
Philippines. in order 30 be unquestionably
satisfactory, should conform strictly to the
constitution. Asked whether he consid-
cred the F'ilipinos capable of exercising
all the privileges guaranteed by literal
Interpretation and application of the con-
stitution, he declined to express an opin-
ion.
CONCERNING the political and commercial
future of the archipelago, Aguinaldo was
reserved He said it was hardly time to
discuss it, while in what he considers to
be captivity. The military officials say he
is kept guarded principally for his own
protection. Aguinaldo says he knows of
no enemies. needs no protection and is
willing to go unattended If permitted to
do so. He is pleased with the municipal
law comforting full local seh-government.
Concerning the provincial law by which
the governor only is an elective official,
Aguinado was uncommunicative.
1t is not expected that Aguinaldo will
continue to be prominent in Philippine af-
fairs. though his friends concede his ex-
ceptionaI abilities for leadership.

CHAPPELL SCORES CRENSHAW
Base InErntitude From One who Has
Enjoyed So Many Rich Offices.

Columbus, Ga, May H-Senator Tom
Chappell is out in interview, scoring Hon.
Thomas c. Crenshaw for his McLaurln
letter. He says in part: "Mr Crenshaw
cannot dignity his position by chasing
himself with McLaurin for the reason
that senator's official position requires
that he should take stand and announce
himself on political issues, but without in
vitation or provocation, MIR. Crenshaw
writes a letter to a stranger and then
makes that letter public, thereby forcing
an opportunity to go wrong. No, not to
go wrong, but to let be known his will
ingness TO go wrong on sufficient invi-
tation.
Il regret that a Democrat, who has
been so often. so deservedly and SO highly
honored with profitable Office in the party,
should announce that his conscience has
not been with the party. That announce
ment would not have been so regretful to
the public If IL had been made when he
was applying for Office in the party in
stead of on the eve of his retirement.
There are many issues on which good
Democrats are divided. notably on the
currency question and colonial expansion,
but the division does not Justify the re-
pudiation of the party by one who IKE
Mr.. Crenshaw. has been so well provided
with rich offices under it,"

owing 10 the condition of his daughter,
who is i'll at Colorado Springs. 1t is his
intention to go there Monday and join the

orado. probably Denver, as the train goes
east. Secretary Long to-day visited all
the warships in the harbor as well as
fine naval barracks here, where Uncle
Sans tackles are recruited. He was re-
eeived aboard each ship with the honors
due to his position. The marine guard

ish OF trumpets as he came over
the side Some of the Northwestern
cities which had arranged to entertain
the President on the return trip, are ap-
healing to the Ohio congressional party
and also to Gov Nash to visit them, in
order that they may have an opportun-
itv to work off some of the enthusiasm
which they had stored up for the Presi-
dent.
II IS positively decided that when Mrs.
Mckinley shall be able to travel no stops
viii be made on the trip back TO Wash

ticipation In any sort OF a reception
might overtax her strength. and the
president is determined to take no risk,

SERVlA'S ROYAL SCANDAL.
Reported Pregnancy of Queen
Proves to BE Untrue.

RepOrteu FREQUENCY OA queen
Proves to BE Untrue.
London, May IA remarkable state
of affairs in the Servian royal family was
revealed by official kilograms from Bel
grade to-day. The Vienna newspapers.
in February, announced the accouchment
of Queen Draga, who was married Aug.
5, 1860. This was shown to be untrue.
Recently. the same papers reported she
was about to be confined. AS the Gear
was one of the attestiug witnesses Of the
marriage, he sent a special
Russian envoy to investigate the
strange rumors. The envoy summoned
a trio of Russian and French specialists.
who declared the Queen was not enciente
and an official notifications to this effect
was to-day sent to the diplomatic crops.
The diagnosis of the doctors. however
does not seem to have satisfied the royal
family and two specialists have been
summoned from Vienna and Bucharest
to report on the case.
A ScandaIous State of Affairs.
London, May 1S-The Servian scandal
becomes still more inexplieable. Accord
ing to the Vienna correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph the doctors attending
Queen Draga have issued bulletin de
clering that the case is peculiar, and it
is not impossible that the Queen is only
in the fourth month of her pregnancy"
The Vienna papers last night reported
that Queen Draga was seriously ill., with
several physicians in consultation. and
that the case would require protracted
treatment.
The greatest indignation has been arous-
ed in Belgrade by the report that Queen
Draga failed in a deliberate attempt
10 foist Ipcn the King the child of her
sister as her own.
The following explanation of the stu
alton in tic Servian royal family may be
resarded as authentic. The physicians
have presented written statement ac-
cording to which there is no immediate
prospect of Queen Draga's accouchement
Size is certainly not in an advanced state
of pregnancy, such as would have been
the case h1d the opinion given last Sep
tembCr by Dr. Caulet, the French physi-
clan, been correct The physicians pro
ceed to eXDlain that DIR. Caulet may have
been correct. but that the natural prog
ress of pregnancy may have been sub
sequently interrupted. In conclusion they
say that the Queens present condit on is
in no way disquieting, either with regard
TO her health or physical constitution, and
that consequently there is no reason why
she should not eventually become a
mother.

Philadelphia, May 17-Although 1t has
been for years the custom of the Pres

real business sessions of the meeting on
the Friday following the opening to-day,
an innovation was introduced this year
in the form of a twentieth century cele-

dresses were made by a number of emf
nent divines, among them Rev. Henry c.
McCook of this city, who in speaking of
the doctrine of predestination, referred
touchingly to Mrs. Mckinley. He stated
that President Mckinley, on meeting a
member of the Revision Committee. re-
marked to the latter:
80 you are going to revise your con-
fession of faith?'
To which the committeeman replied:
1--WE are going to consider the ques-
ton
We'll" responded the President, II
hope you won't revise out of it the doc
trine of predestination."
Let us hope" said DIR. McCook, that
as our beloved President sits by the bed
side of the noble woman whom he welded
in a Buckeye Presbyterian church. this
goodly doctrine may be comfort to
him, whatever the issue, and that he may
say with resignation: Not my will, but

Albany, N. Y, May 17.-No settlement
has been reached in the railway strike.
After hours of conference the officials Of
the United Traction Company and the
committee from the organizations of the
strikers adjourned without changing the
situation. The company will proceed 10
run its cars tomorrow on every line with
i'm the city limits, with the aid of a mill
tary force, that now numbers 5000 men.
The reason there Is no settlement tonight
Is because the company refuse to dis
charge the men brought from other points
to take strikers places.
This is a new phase of the difficulty
and promises to develop far more serious
consequences and lmpediments i'm the way
Of settlement than have been anticipated
at any time since the strike was called.
1t is a matter which had not been con-
sldered by the strikers or the public and
puts an entirely new aspect OF the sit
uation. The company, 1t Is learned, on the
wage question was willing to increase the
wages OF the extra men and night trip
pers 10 1893. cents per hour. but refused
to establish a uniform rate Of % cents an
hour for all employees as requested by the
strikers
