DR.. Coke Smith made atalk in the
Methodist conference last week and
said that the papers had recently re-
ported him as having gone to heaven,
but he thanked God that he was still
on, the earth. This reminds us Of
what a celebrated clown once said to

Health and Beauty.

A poor complexion is usually the result
of a torpid liver or irregular action Of
the bowels. Unless NATURES refuse Is
carried off it will surely cause impure
blood. Pimples, boils and other erup-
tions follow. This is natures method
of throwing off the poisons which the
bowels fail to remove. DeWitt's Lit
tle Early Risers are world famous for
remedying this condition. They stimu-
late tho liver and promote regular and
healthy action of the bowels, but never
cause gripping, cramps or distress. Safe
pills. j. w. Bell.

sou, ana received his blessing. il
was the fondest wish Of "a iexander
|III that his successor should marry
this true and conscientious pfinosss,
whose rare tact aid attractions wero
known and admired by all the Royal
families Of Europe. s
The marriage OF Nicholas has
turned out as happily as that of his
father and mother. The gossips say
there was q good deal Of friction at
first and that the ozarina was indif-
ferent TO her husband |, but after her
first baby was born and the siege Of
typhoid fever through which she
nursed the ozar at Liyadia, the
imperial palace down ON the Black
Sea near Sebastapol, they became
very much attached, and are now the
most devoted of couples. They
have four little girls, named Olga,
Tatiani, Marie and Dagmar, and OF
course the whole empire as we'll as
themselves are deeply disappointed
because there is no boy. It's said
that an old olairyoyant in st. Peters
burg has prophesied that the empress
must bear six daughters before she
has son.
Alix, or Alexandra Feodorovna,
as they oall her in Russia, is the
most beautiful of all the czarinas,
and her portraits and busts are seen
everywhere in st, Petersburg. Her
character is as lovely as her person,
and, although all the Russians are
proud Of their empress, she is not
popular. She is too serious and her
morals are too strict. She! does not
care for gayety. She is not fond of
balls or operas, and, while she OBJ
serves all the requirements of her
position and presides with admirable
tact and grace at ceremonials, she
prefers the ball room and the society
Of her husband and brothers and
sisters to that of the court. People
complain that she is exclusive and
distant. They admit she is amiable,
but say that she does not make
friends with certain people and
frowns upon certain ladies who are
not as careful of their behavior as
they ought to be. They call her a
puritan, and say that things would
be much liylier about the palace if
che were a little more frivolous.
Both the czar and the czarina are
devoted to their children, and take
them wherever they go. Neither
father nor mother has ever been
separated from them. Hence every
journey of State is attended by q
large retinue of nurses, doctors and
servants to look after the little ones,
including two COWS for tho imperial
dairy, which have furnished their
sustenance ever since they were
born.

of conspiracy and in continual peril
of his life. Numberless were the
attempts to assassinate him. His
railway trains were thrown of the
track and blown up with dynamite; !;
poisoned daggers, letters of warning
and threats were frequently found
upon the table of his library and
even upon his dressing table. Ie
lived surrounded by detectives and
soldiers, but was allowed to die a
natural death.
Nicholas III is his antithesis, as diff
ferent from his father as a man could
be. Of slight delicate frame, but
wiry and nervous, he is full of vitality,
quick and active in his movements,
of alert perceptions and remarkable
memory, sympathetic, bright hearted
and fond of jokes, sports and amuse-
ments of all kinds. He plays golf
and tennis, runs an automobile, and
only yesterday Twas reading of his
visit to his grandfather's castle in
Denmark, where he took spin of
thirty miles upon bicycle accom-
panied by his cousins, Victoria and
Maud, the daughters of the King of
England. When we were visiting
the royal palace in Stockholm we
found his photograph upon tho writ
ing desk of the Grown Princess Vic
toria, of Sweden, inscribed "From
Nicky to Vicky."
He will always be more or less of
a boy, and his people should pray
that he may never lose his lightness
of heart and his great capacity for
enjoyment. He has a deep sense of
his responsibilities, and during his
reign of six years has developed a
strong character, an independent
spirit and an unflinching determine
tion such as becomes despot. But
his keen sense of humor, his love of
life and sympathetic position are
safety valves. He is devoted to his
mother, and gives her his complete
confidence. Their affection has
always been the subject of comment
in Russian court circles, for he is
more like lover than son. She is
a wise woman, and her influence
over him has always been good. He
is also great admirer of his uncle
Edward, the King of England, and
often consults him concerning mat
ters of State. Although the sove-
reign of Russia's closet rival, King
Edward is said to have more influ-
ence over the czar than any other
person.
Nicholas was great favorite with
Queen Victoria also, and during the
last five years of her reign she inter-
tered with the foreign policy Of her
ministers on several occasions lest it
might cause irritation or defeat the
aspirations of her imperial grandson
in-law.
Nicholas was deeply attached to
his brother, the late Grand Duke
George, who died Of consumption in
1899. He was manly, generous,
modest young fellow of excellent
attainments, and his death was a
profound shock to Nicholas, because
he had always been strong and
vigorous, while the latter was of
delicate constitution and from q
child showed tendency to consump-
tion.
Nicholas had romantic love affair
before he became of age, like his
cousin, the Duke of York, heir to

Gen. Chaffee Warns His Troops
Against TreacherOus FflipinOs.
Following the unfortunate disaster to the
9th Infantry at Balangiga, when the troops
were surprised and overcome by supposedly
friendly Filipinos, General Chaffee, the di-
vision commander, issued a general order
designed to guard against future treachery
of that kind.
THE division commander" says the or
der calls the attention of all officers and
enlisted men of this command to the loss
of comrades at Balangiga, Samar, Septem-
Der % last, due to unwatchfulness and un-
warranted confidence in the professed 10y
atty and friendship of the inhabitants of
the town where the troops were located
For these reasons too much reliance should
not be placed professions Of faith and
friendship, as yet improved. Military vigi-
lance should never be relaxed, and every
precaution must be taken to guard against
a recurrence of the disaster at Balangiga." ="

PANAMA, December 2.
Secretary of the Navy, Washington, D. c.:
Shall re-embark portion only tomorrow

This dispatch indicates that Captain Per-
ry. acting under the discretionary author
ity given him by the Secretary of the Navy,
has found it advisable to maintain a guard
of United States marines at Panama and
possibly at other points along the railroad
for short time, in order to insure unnter-
rupted traffic across the iSthmus There
are now four United States naval vessels
guarding both ends of the Panama rail-
road two at Panama and two at Colon,
and that number will not be reduced so
long as there are any prospects of a re-
viyal of the insurrection against Colombia.

CAPT. TILLEY Acquitted.
Press Dispatch Announcing the Fact
Accepted as Reliable.

A press dispatch from Auckland, n. T.,
says that the United States naval court at
Tutuila, Samoa, has honorably acquitted
Captain Benjamin F. Tilley, naval govern
or Of Tutuila, of all the charges against
him. Although no official report to that
effect has reached the Navy Department
the press report is accepted as entirely re-
liable. The many friends OF Captain TIL
ley in this city are highly gratifed over
the report Of his exoneration.
Missionaries preferred the charges against
Captain Tilley, alleging that he drank to
excess. According to good authority the
investigation, Instituted by the naval off,
Gals was the most expensive trial ever
known in the history Of the army or navy.
One great item of expense was dispatchine
the trial board to Tutuila on two men-of-
war, and it is estimated that the total cost
Of the trial aggregates $50 600.

Arguments for Army Posts Must BE
Presented in Writing.

Presented in Writing.
Secretary Root today instructed the army
post board, which is holding daily sessions
at the headquarters Of the army, War De-
partment, to grant no public hearings. This
ruling of the Secretary is the result Of nu-
merous applications from persons in differ
ent parts Of the country to appear in per-
son before the board and set out reasons
why this post should be retained, that one
abandoned and another established at a
desired point. 1t is Felt that hearings of
this sort would retard the progress Of the
work before the board and be handicap
additional to that already imposed by the
great mass Of correspondence which comes
in from all quarters.
The board adjourned at the usual hour
today, and will convene at o'clock tomor-
row morning 1t Is stated that the board
has its work we'll in hand now and is dis
posing of its task with rapidity. However,
no definite estimate of the date of com
pletion can be had.
