Is New Orleans a British Depots

Mr.. Alfred vansittart. the British
consul at New Orleans. has been unfor-
tunate. Stationed in a community

of rudeness and boorishness which,
not unnaturally. astonishes a well-bred
people. He has taken upon himself, as
we gather from the New Orleans pa

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 2O.-rhe
bark Santiago prepared on Friday to

men who have been engaged did no.
appear. Yesterday the bark Olympic
cleared at the custom house for Homo
lulu, and her captain expects to get
away today with a non-union crew.
The two vessels are the first of the
tied-up sugar fleet that are attempting
to get to sea.

entine Benicia, with cargoes OF sugar
from Honolulu, came into port today.
Their crews left them as soon as they
anchored and they joined the idle feet.

STORIES OF WONDERFUL CURES

They are telling wonderful stories In
New York Of remarkable cures said to
have been effected by the holy relic OF
ST. Anne, now on exhibition there.
One child, who has been crippled from
babyhood, was able to walk for the
first time without crutches, and a
blind girl who had never seen the light
of day declared that she could make
out objects about her. An aged
woman, elegantly dressed, and who
came to the church in a carriage, was
carried up the crypt where the relic
lies. She was So weak that she could
not stand, and knelt on the floor.
Presently she arose and walked from
the church unassisted,

known Remedy to Her Friends.
Indigestion and stomach trouble have
many results that are not always readily
traced to their real cause. Sometimes
the kidneys are apparently affected but
more often an irregularity Of the hearts
action produces a far more alarming
symptom. The cause is easily explained
andisremoved when the stomach trouble
Is cured. A case in point is that of Mrs.
w. T. Clark, of 318 West Thomas street,
Rome, N. Y. She says:
"To begin with, I had gastritis, which
brought on sinking spells for about an
hour every morning. I was very weak
and nervous and finally was compelled
to take to my bed. My illness began In
the spring Of 1897, and continued for
about four months. For about half this
time was confined to my bed. Isuffered
greatly from the stomach trouble and
nervousness, but what alarmed me most
was the sinking feeling at the heart.
81 had read about DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People and when some Of
my friends recommended the pills very
highly, decided to give them trial. I
bought one box and by the time this was
used up the sinking spells had ceased.
I felt better but continued taking the
pills until had used twelve boxes. I
still keep the pills in the house for I
believe that they are a splendid medicine.
l always recommend DIR. Williams Pink
Pills to my friends who are ailing for I
know that they will do all that is claim.

COAL GOES UP.
Price of the Hard Kind Advances Sl.25
Ton Over Last Year,

People who burn hard coal for fuel
will have to pay dearly for it next fall.
1t will cost money to keep warm then,
and our people should not grumble too
much at the warm days now, that do
not cost anything. Hard coal for
August delivery will cost SO ton, for
September delivery 1926, and for
October delivery SO. so. Last year the
price was 81. % ton lower.
The advance this year is due to two
things. 1t is mostly due to the Nor
gan combine, which has showed the
price up rs cents ton. The other
cause that has contributed to the ad-
vance is the difference of 30 cents a
ton in freight rates For several years
the railroads have been granting re-
bate of 90 cents ton, but hereafter
there will be no rebate and the full
freight charge will be made.
Local dealers say that they will not
only not participate in the increase
profit on coal, but that their profits
will be less than heretofore.
The large advance in the price of
coal will make greater demand for
wood. and that in turn will probably
advance. All in all, the prospect for
next winter is not encouraging, es-
pecially if the winter should be of the
usual Minnesota kind.

THE WORLDS COMMERCE,

In the swift changes that are taking

the world, it is we'll to remember that
the greatest prizes to be won are in
commerce, not in war or politics.
The total amount of commerce of the
world amounts to $1S, 900, 600, 900. 1t
makes change of money and products
amounting to almost three millions of
dollars every hour of every day of the
year.

transaction is the turning of tons of
