MENTIONED BY NAME.

Private Secretary Cortelyou writes
in response to an inquiry that Presi-
dent Roosevelt's name is pronounced
Roswell.
In 1887 Gen. Sherman predicted that
"the most terrible war ever known will
take place in this country before the
end of the century,"
Prof. Dewar, of Cambridge, who
liquetied hydrogen, has been elected
president of the British Associa ion
for the Advancement of Science for
next year.
Since the time of the second presi-
dent there has been but one period
when no ex-president survived, and
that was during the last two years OF
Grants second term.
James Monroe Hill, of Austin, Tex,
is one of the few survivors of the battle
of San Jacinto, which assured to Texas
it's independence He was born in
Georgia, and is a cousin of the late

MRS. MADISON'S CASE.

Polk City, Ia, Oct. 14.-For over
ten years Mrs. Elizabeth p. Madison,
a respected lady of this place, has
suffered most severely with Kidney
trouble complicated with derange-
ments of the bowels and liver.
Rheumatism, another painful result
of deranged Kidneys, added it's tor
lures to her burden of pain.
Treatments and medicines without
number were tried; physicians also
exhausted their skill, but all to no
purpose.
At this stage of the case treat
ment of Dodd's Kidney Pills was re-
sorted to and the results were simply
miraculous, from the very first box
an Improvement was noticed and the
continued treatment resulted in a
complete cure.
This remarka BILE cure created a de-
cided Sensation in the neighborhood
because of the complications of the
case as we'll as it's severity and ap-
parent hopelessness.
Upon investigation Dodd's Kidney
Pills are found to be the only rem
edy that has ever cured Bright's Dis
ease, Diabetes or Dropsy and these
hitherto incurable diseases are read
lily conquered by this remarkable
remedy.

TOMB OF AN ANCIENT KING.
Objects of Archaeological Interest
and Value Unearthed
in Russia,

The grave of king or chieftain
who was buried at Seddin, in Russian
West Priegnitz, 5000 years ago, has
been carefully excavated and many
bronze objtcts added to the provin-
cial museum in consequence, says
the New York Times. There are
beaten and cast bowls, iron pins,
rings and knives of bronze, necklaces
with enameled beads and bronze
tubes and other objects belonging to
the bronze age. About the large
the tradition that king was buried
in a triple coffin. When examined it
was found to conceal a nine-cornered
vault made of large, erratic blocks of
stone plastered with clay and paint
ed with red pigment.
In this rude tomb was q gigantic
vase of pottery, and within the vase
was box of gilded bronze having
lid of the same metal, the box deco
rated with small knobs. The tradi-
ton said three collins and proved
correct. In the box were the remains
of a man 30 or 40 years old, whose
hodv had been burned. No inscrip-
ton was found, and the only means
of determining the age of the inter-
ment is the style of bronze objects
and vase. German antiquarians be-
lieve that it belongs to very early
Teutonic race in northern Germany
which practiced cremation, a race
that was succeeded by Slavic peo-
pie, who in turn were driven out very
generally by the modern German
tribes. It is not little remarka BILE
that the farming population of Prus-
STA is tending again to Slavs. The

GOLD CHAIN ON HER ANKLE.
New Fad of the Golf Girl That
Has Become Popular
of Late.

A Young woman living in New York
has astonished her friends by the new
fashion she has brought home from
abroad. Around one of her ankles is
linked a. gold chain bracelet or anklet
of heavy Tuscan gold fastened with a
turquoise amulet clasp, says the New
York Sun.
This is worn outside the stocking
and is plainly in evidence when golf
skirt is worn.
It would seem far too striking a
fashion to find favor with women of
good taste, but it is difficult to tell ex-
actly what will strike the feminine
fancy. Already few of her friends
have ordered similar anklets in gun
metal and silver of less elaborate
fashion than that worn by the young
woman, who brought the fad direct
from Paris, where it was introduced
by Russian woman of title.
One of these anklets being observed
at Turkish bath patronized by wom-
en-, the attendant was asked if the Gus
tom was general.
"A great many women" said the
girl, "wear these chain bracelets, some
above the knee and others at the an
kle. 1 have never known of their be-
ing worn outside the stocking, how
ever, as I have been usually called to
assist the wearer to adjust the stock
ings over the anklet, sometimes q
difficult task to perform without tear
inp delicate hosiery"
All summer long women have been
wearing bracelets outside the sleeve
and the new anklet fad seems to have
originated in the new and rather pro-
nounced fashion of exhibiting the
bracelet. These odd fashions, how
ever, have a short life on this side of
the water, although they are carried
to extremes abroad, especially by the
fashion makers of Paris.

RUSkJN'S ART TREASURES.
Thirty of Them Now at BIantwooa
 Valued at S15o,ooo.

To speak of John Ruskin's art treas. ures is to think of Turner. The ex- emples by this master at Brantwood are not Low so many as they once were, iD large part because of his gen. erous gifts to Oxford and Cambridge, to say nothing of the famous Loire series which, complete, he gave to the Oxford galleries. To the university towns he gave, for instance, several beautiful water colors of Venice, of ths junction of the Greta and the Tees. which he regarded as one of the very best of the Yorkshire series, the mag nificent "Richmond, Yorks," now in the Fitzwilliam Museum, and others. Again, instead of remaining in his possession. "The Slaver," given to him by his father about the time of bis majority, is now in America. Even today, however, the thirty or so Tur- ner water colors at Brentwood, be- side many sketches, each one chosen with view to some particular beauty, or characteristic, constitute one of the finest collections of the kind owned by an individual. They enable us to follow the development of tbe artist from 1792, Wien as a lad of IF he Eainted lis own portrait, through his @ario5s significant phases, onward to tne early forties, when he shaped some of the most wonder-provoklng and ex4 Quisito of his creations A value of something like 900 has been put upon the assemblage by one who has recently been at Brentwood, but, in truth, linked so closely as they are to Euskin's life-work, while they remain together they are Invaluable.

GREAT CITY FOR PADLOCKS
Phenomenal Way la Which They Flour

Irkutsk, the accepted capitaA ot eri- ental Siberia, is city Of padloc1s. It has only about 51 ,000 inhabitants, yet there are more padlocks on the shut ters and doors of Irkutsk stores than can be found in an American city e 200,0o0. There are as many as three padlocEs on some store doors, and every lower story shutter bears from one to five. The paddock weighs from one to fifteen pounds. Toe popular size Is five pounds and tNo and one half inches thick, says the Chicago affair of consequence. The heavy shut ters are swung together, the ponderous Iron bars are put in place, the padlocks are adjusted and locked, and then comes the final and serious ceremony of locking the door. The door is shut the bars are placed, and the padl9ek is fixed. and locked, and the veTdant stranger thinks the closing operation is ever.

A promenade On ah Irkutsk business street after closing time shows the huge padlocks, the two hnes of string and fat dab of red wax as big as a silver dollar.
