The report embraces the tabulated
statements showing the business done
in the land offices and at Washington.
Referring to the increase of business
saws:
When in my last annual report
called attention 10 the remarkable
showing made in the tabulated state
ments of work then done in this Office
of lands disposed of and cash re-
ce1Ved for at ysar-and which far
exceeded the record for many years
previous, 1 confidently believed q max
imum had been reached. The cash re-
ceipts were then ESTATES. an increase
OF Sl.309.6621 over the previous year
and an increase of S2101, 763 over that
of the year of 1898. The land disposed

acres in 1900, as against 9.182. acres

The present report for the fiscal

THE CHINESE QUESTION.
CHANGE OF CLIMATE
Not Necessary in Order to Cure
Catarrh.


The popular idea that the only cure for
chronic catarrh is a change of climate, is
a mistake because catarrh is found in
all climates in all sections of the country;
and even If a change of climate should
benefit for a time the catarrh will GER
tainly return.
Catarrh may be readily cured in any
climate, but the only way to do 1t IS
to destroy or remove from the system
the catarrhal germs which cause all the
mischief.
The treatment by inhalers, sprays, pow
ders and washes has been proven almost
useless in making permanent cure, as
they do not reach the seat Of disease,
which is in the blood and can be reached
only by an internal remedy which acts
through the stomach upon the blood
and system generally.
A new discovery which Is meeting with
remarkable success in curing catarrh of
the head, throat and bronchial tubes and
also catarrh Of the stomach, is sold by
druggists under the name of Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets
These tablets which are pleasant and
harmless to take owe their efficiency 10
the active medicinal principles of Blood
Root Red Gum and q new specific called
Guaiacoi' which together with valuable
antSepucs are combined in convenient
palatahle tablet form, and as valuable for
children as for adults.
Mr. A. R. Fernbank Of Columbus. Ohio
says: suffered so many winters from
Catarrh that I took It as a matter of
course, and that nothing would cure 1t
except change of climate, which nv
business affairs would not permit me to
take.
My nostrils were almost always clogged
up, I had to breathe through the mouth
causing an imfamed, irritated throat.
The thought Of eating breakfast often
nauseated me and the catarrh gradually
getting into my stomach took away my
appetite and digestion.
My druggist advised ME to try a fifty
cent box of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, be-
cause he said he had so many customers
who had been cured of Catarrh by the
use Of these tablets, that he felt he could
honestly recommend them. I took his
advice and used several boxes with re-
suits that surprised and delighted me-
always keep box OF Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets in the house and the whole fam
lily use them freely on the first appear
ance Of cough or cold In the head.
With our children we think there is
nothing so safe and reliable as Stuart, :
Catarrh Tablets to ward off Group and
colds and with older people have known
OF cases where the bearing had been Sc
riously impaired by chronic caterrh cures
entirely by this new remedy.

opinion here rather inclines to another
year elapsing before that happens, al
though it is well known that Russia
strongly desires Won Waldersee's retire
ment and that of the German troops.
The coming week begins the season of
court festivities, the emperor and en-
press having moved to the Berlin schloss.
The last season was greatly subdued be-
cause of the death Of the empress
mother, hence this winter will be doubly
festive. The festivities commence Thurs
day and Friday next with the bi-cen-
tenary of the declaration of the Prus-
sian kingdom, which the emperor intends
to make a great event. The preparations
therefor are nearly completed.
PRUSSIAN BI-CENTENARY.
They are most comprehensive. The
army will have a holiday. After special
divine services at the Protestant Catho-
lie and Jewish churches, each garrison
will fire a salute of 101 guns and the Of
hcers and men will banquet. The pub
lie schools will have the same. The main
hall Of the Berlin schloss, to which dele
gates from everywhere in the kingdom
will go to congratulate the emperor, who
has invited number Of members of no.
bic families Of East Prussia, who were
there settled when Frederick 1. became
its king in 1701. Austria sends it's crown
prince, Italy the Duke Of Aosta and
Great Britain the Duke Of York.
Winter maneuvers for the guard corps
have been planned for the end of the
month in the vicinity of Berlin, Potsdam
and Spandau, including bivouacs in the
open air. The crown prince and the en-
peror will both participate.
An official Of the foreign Office informed
a representative Of the Associated Press
that those who are thoroughly acquainted
with the Chinese hold that while they are
most crafty, still when, the note is signed
they will consider themselves bound. The
foreign Office also hopefully considers
the dowager empress case, remembering
that she showed Prince Henry of Prus-
STA unusual courtesies. It believes that
while the dowager empress is still more
or less under anti-foreign influences she
will eventually change her attitude and
return to Pekin with the whole court
probably at the end of March or the be-
ginning of April.

valuable Invention of DR.. PuDin
Bought by an American Company.
NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-THE Electrical
Review, published today, announces the
purchase by the American Telephone
and Telegraph company (the parent Bell
company OF the patents of Dr. M. I.
Pupin, Of Columbia college, which. II
states, covers the art of ocean telephony
and which enables telephone messages
to be sent over any length of land
Hnes. 1t further states that the sum of
$2eo'VOo has been paid to DR.. Pupin for
the invention, with an annual salary
TO him during the life of the patents
Of $780,
The invention referred to and for which
two patents were issued in June, 1900.
Is described at length, and it is character
lied as one Of the most brilliant ex-
ceptional inventions Of DR.. Pupin. It
was thought necessary In order to talk
q given distance, say 500 miles, in under
ground cables, to employ large copper
wires covered with insulating material
Inc expense of such wires and material
has been sufficient to prevent the CON-
structon of large underground circuits
DR.. Pupin's invention is declared to fur
nish method whereby conductors Of
relatively small diameter covered with
insulating material Of moderate thick
ness may be used In place of the large
ana expensive conductors formerly
thought to be necessary
The Electrical Review, in conclusion,
states:
Experimenting with artificial conduc-
tors, DR.. Pupin discovered that it was
possible to telephone over vastly greater
lengths of cable than had ever been pos
sible before, and he is able to make any
desired length of telephone circuit easily
possible. He has shown a design for
induction coils to be introduced at ap-
propriate intervals in transatlantic
cable which would allow telephone con-
versatton to be held across the Atlantic
ocean. It is believed by those who have
Investigated the subject fully that the
Improvement which his inventions con-
lines of any length that are in use today
and solves the difficult and attractive
problem Of ocean telephony"
