regenerator Of Mexico, its benevo-

four years as chief executive and had
handed the presidential chair over to

Ion at arms, General Manuel Gonzalez
who retained the Office for four years
and then gave It back to Dlaz The oc.

Splendid New Ship.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 3.-One of
the finest sailing ships in the world
is soon to visit Philadelphia She is
named the Acme and will be launched
from the yard of her builders, Arthur
Sewall & Co., of Bath, Me-, In a few
weeks The ship will carry 1900, 900
gallons of petroleum After receiving
her cargo at the Point Breeze piers the
Acme will sail with it for Japan, via
the Cape of Good Hope.
The Acme owes her origin to the
Standard Oil Company The heads of
the concern have decided that the day
OF the sailing ship is not over, and that
oil can be carried to the far East I'M
der canvas cheaper than by steam.
Old tars at this port are enthusiastic
over the revival of the square rigger, a
type now fast disappearing from the
seas, and many of them are making
efforts to secure berth on this splen-
did craft
The Acme measures 1872 feet long, As
feet beam and 26 feet deep Her gross
tonnage is 3,206 and net tonnage 5000.
She will carry a complement of IS men.
The masts are of steel and 1856 feet

ST LOUIS FIELD DAY.


Carried Out.
The annual field day at ST. Louis
College yesterday was q very enjoyable
occasion and every number ON the pro-
gramme was successfully rendered. The
intermittent rains caused very little i'm
convenience, and the programme went
through without a hitch The ST. Louis
College band. with Brother Francis as
leader furnished the music for the oc-
Casion.
At two o'clock all were ready, and the
spectators turned out i'm good numbers
to witness the young athletes I'm their
college games. It may well be stated
that the boys are all very young. and
the records that were broken speak
very highly for them. Eugene Mccain
and John Bento deserve credit for their
good showing, as these young men
have deservedly won the honor of hav-
ing broken the Pole Walt and Broad
Jump records.
The first number on the programme
was especially interesting, and Mccain
surprised all present when he cleared 9
feet Z inches i'm the pole vault contest
| David KolN came second, and James
| Laing, third.
The broad jump by the senior mem
| berS of the college manifested the ath-
letic vigor which John Bento has in him
| BentO made IL 1873 but could have made
| it better had it not been for his sprain-
/ ed foot.
! In the putting shot contest, Antoine
Louis, broke all previous records when
he threw the 16 pound shot 20 feet 6
/ inches. H. O'SulliVan threw one foot
short of Louis record. Antoine Louis
states that he has done better several
times during practice.
/ The winners in each number are as

NO CATCHING AT sTPAws.

Drowning men, they say, will
catch at straws. Naturally
enough, because they see nothing
better to catch at. 1t is the
principle Of any port in a storm
All the same the straw does not
save the drowning man, nor is
the tempest-tossed mariner likely
to find a safe harbor every time
he runs for the shore. The scieu-
tifcally constructed life preserver
is better than q straw, and to
know how to ride out a storm is
better than to trust TO luck III
finding a port in time Of need.
Just so It is in disease and
all manner of sickness. A ship
takes a pilot on the theory that
he knows the right channel
and can avoid the dangerous
places. And when your life is
threatened by disease you natur-
ally desire a mode of treatment
founded on absolute knowledge
"a treatment that has proved
effective in other cases like your
own. This is the common-sense
of the subject and no one viii
dispute it. And it is because
the well-known effective remedy
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
never fails in the complaints for
which it is recommended, that it
enjoys the confidence of the
people and the medical profess
sion everywhere. The doctor
who prescribes and the patient
who takes it are not catching at
straws, for it does what it is
said to do on the same principle
that water puts out a fire. 1t is
palatable as honey and contains
the nutritive and curative prop
critics of Pure Cod Liver Oil,
combined with the Compound
Syrup of Hypophosphites, Malt
and Wild Cherry. 1t quickly ar
rests the loss Of flesh in wasting
diseases, builds up the body, and
expels from the blood those per-
nicious germs which cause Fevers,
La Grippe, Scrofula, Bowel Com
plants, Throat and Lung Trou-
bles, etc. Effective from the first
dose. " You cannot be disappoint-
ed in it." Sold by all chemists.
