A Town Crier's Warming.

During the early part Of the week,
wires a correspondent, the town crier
of Tewkesbury, in his quaint uniform.
made a tour Of the town. crying the
following ar1ouncement:
Oyez! Oyez! Oyez! Please to take notice
that on and after this date any pro-Boers
found lurking in the streets Of this loyal
and ancient borough will be taken to the
cross and duly tarred and feathered. BY
order. God save the queen.
This notice soon brought together
the youthful population, who followed
the bellman through the streets until
they numbered about 200, hurrahing
and singing the national anthem. The
crowd then visited the residence of one
who is supposed to have pro-Boer sym
pathies and made demonstration, but
more serious than shouting
was INDUCED in. Later a pigs head,
which had evidently been used as a
target for innumerable bullets, was
sent in basket to the same person.
From the London Leader.

Claimant for Damages Who Did Not
Grasp at q $1,000 Bill.
"A professional compromiser who
understands his business is a most
valuable man on the staff of any big
railroad" said New Orleans lawyer,
apropos of nothing in particular. "It
is great art" he continued, "and I
had the fact impressed upon me by
something rather unusual that hap
pened early in my career. I had been
in practice only year or two, as I
certain railroad company to represent
1t in damage suit brought by an old
fellow who had been hurt at cross
ing. got the job because the regular
attorney and regular assistant attorney
were out of town on bigger affairs and
threw myself into it with unlimited
enthusiasm. A little investigation con-
vinced me. however, that the company
didn't have leg to stand on, and
neither, for that matter, did the claim
ant, both of 'em having been broken
above the knee. So I advised a COM
promise, and was told to settle, If I
could, for $1,000. That fixed limit dis
couraged me, because the suit had
been brought for 100000 and knew
the opposition lawyers had been filling
their client with rosy hopes, but I
thought up scheme that seemed
promising" quotes the Times-Demo-
crat. "The claimant was an ignorant
old fellow, who had been laborer for
years, and / took it for granted that he
had never had as much as $100 at any
one time in his life. I'll just hypno-
tize him. said to myself and, going
to a bank, got brand new 1000 bill.
Then hurried off to his boarding
house, found him in dirty little back
room, and made my proposition for
settlement. Just as I anticipated, he
declined 1t Indignantly. Very well,'
said I. pulling out the bill with a stud
led carelessness, in that case I'll have
to return this money. But, by the
way added, did you ever happen to
see $1,000 bill? It's quite a hand
some piece of paper!' To be candid,
was rather awed by the thing myself
and expected him to finger it like a
piece of the true cross, but, to my
amazement, he took 1t indifferently.
glanced at 1t with no apparent interest,
and handed it back. It's vera pretty,
he said, stolidly, and went on smoking
his pipe"

Addison Cammack, who a few years
ago was one of the ablest and most
successful operators that Wall street
ever knew, died the other day, after a
long illness. In 1897, early in Febru-
ary, Mr.. Cammack sold his seat on the
stock exchange, which he had held
since March 10, 1875, and retired from
business. The purchaser was Henry /.
Dittman of Lazard Brothers, and the
price was $4,000.
Mr.. Cammack was called the great
pessimist" OF the street. He was noted
for being pricker Of South Sea bub-
bles. He held that there were too
many railroads and too much water in
stocks, and he reaped wealth out Of
the wreck of industries into which
hopeful and empire-building pioneer
capitalists put their money.
Many men have grown rich in Wall
street. The Vanderbilts and the
Goulds incidentally made fortunes
there as the result of their real opera
tions in business. But few men cleared
fortunes on pure speculation like the
harvests reaped by Mr.. Cammack. He
did not create new wealth with his
winnings. He merely gathered in ex-
isting wealth by taking advantage Of
human errors in real speculation and
by always taking the 'bear" side of the
market.
The great pessimist began to be
known in Wall street when in 1870 he
formed partnership with Charles j..
Osborn under the firm name of Osborn
& Cammack. This was a brokerage
firm, but in 1875 Mr.. Cammack with
drew and never did brokers' business

Duke Has . Milton Acres.

The late Lord Leconfield was one Of
the eight-and-twenty noblemen who,
according to the Modern Doomsday
Book, possess over hundred thousand
acres in the United Kingdom. His pos
sessions amounted to sixty-six thou
sand acres in England and some forty
five thousand in Ireland, and his rent
roll was returned at E88,000 a year.
The Duke Of Sutherland is long way
the first in point of acreage, owning no
less than 1,35S,OO0, but the Duke Of
Buccleuch, who is second in acreage,
is first in point Of rental, which, ow-
ing to his town property and minerals,
must still be quite worth G217,O00 per
annum OF the last return. Scotland
would seem to be the land of the great
landlord, rather less than one-sixth Of
that country being held by the six
great noblemen, the Dukes of Suther-
land, Buccleuch, Richmond, Fife and
Atholl, and the Marquis of Rreadal-
bane.

again. His operations were all con-
fined to absolute speculation. He was
often associated with William H. Van
derbilt and Jay Gould in their opera
tions, and he was close personal
friend OF the former railway magnate.
1t was Cammack who, in 1888,
brought about the collapse in North
ern Pacific stock. He loved the ex-
citement of the market to the last.
When he retired four years ago he did
SO under pressure from his wife, who
insisted that he had had enough of the
game. He did not marry until he was
SO years old, but at that time he did
not look more than 40. His was a
wonderful vitality, and the way he
held his age was the wonder of the
street." where his youthful appear
aacc and his real age were a proverb
among the young men.
Mrs. Cammack was a Miss Hildreth
OF Washington. The dead speculator
leaves two children, both boys, one Of
whom is IA and the other II. On his
wedding day he presented his wife
with $1,00O,0O0 in first-class securities.
Mr.. Cammack was born at Hopkins
Vile, KY. His parents were very poor,
and he drifted to New Orleans as
youth and there became a clerk. He
was afterward cotton speculator in
London, and wholesale liquor dealer
In New York. He lived at 46 West
Fifty-seventh street and had country
home at Tuxedo.

Denver Health Department Doctors
Method of Diagnosing Mumps.
There has recently been an epidemic
OF mumps among the school children
of the city, says the Denver Republi-
can. According to the rules of the
health department a child may not
return to school until he has fully
recovered. Every afternoon has
brought to the health department If
teen or twenty youngsters, some with
swollen cheeks and some without. 1t
is the duty Of the physician in charge
Of the Office to examine these appli-
cants for clean bills of health and see
II any trace of the infection remains.
But the force of the health depart
ment is small, and sometimes there is
no doctor in the office for an hour at
time. This works hardship on
mothers waiting with their children,
and DR.. Carlin yesterday bethought
himself OF the magic touchstone by
which Miss Mollie Currigan, guardian
Of the outer office, might herself test
the applicants. pickles are the thing"
said DR.. Carlin. "If a person with
the slightest trace Of Inflammation in
the thyroid glands takes a bite Of any,
thing sharply sour, the face is instant
ly contorted. In extreme cases the
pain is extreme" So bottle OF mixed
pickles was added to the pharmaco-
poeia Of the Office Now, when there
is no doctor in the office, Miss Cur
rigan lines up the applicants for GER
tincates and goes down the lines with
the bottle OF pickles. II the child takes
the pickle and smiles as a healthy

again; but If he scowls in pain. then

To all such people DR.. Hartman's
remedy, Peruna, comes as a great
boon. Not only is it more successful
In curing catarrh than the treatment
Of the catarrh specialists, but 1t Is
within the reach Of every person In
this land. Peruna can be bought at
any drug store, and is a remedy
without equal for catarrh in all
forms, coughs, colds, bronchitis, con-
sumption, and all climatic diseases of
winter.
Peruna is not a guess, nor an ex-
pertinent; 1t is an absolute, scien-
tific certainty. Peruna cures catarrh
wherever located. Peruna hs no
substitutes-no rivals. Insist upon
having Peruna. Let no one persuade
you that some other remedy will do
nearly as we'll. There is no other
systemic remedy for catarrh but Pc
runa.
