Appeal for Increase Made by Repre-
sentative w. A. Smith.
The bill to codify the postal laws occupied
the attention of the House yesterday af-
ternoon. Several attempts were made to
amend the bill as the reading proceeded
Mr.. w. A. Smith offered an amendment to
classify letter carriers as of the first, sec
ond. third and fourth class and pay them
at the rate of 1920, $1,000 $500 and $500
per annum. respectively, He made an i'm
FASHIONED speech in support of the amend
ment, which. he said, would do only scant
justice to one of the most deserving class
OF government employees.
Mr.. Mahon Pa.) replied with an equally
earnest appeal against increasing the sal
aries of government employees. He under
took to say that for the same class Of
work. the letter carriers were the best
paid men in the nation.
Mr.. Loud urged that the presentation of
such an amendment to the pending bill
was ,iinopportune. but said heitwas willing
to allow the proposition to go to vote
without debate. The vote resulted. ayes
10, noes, 33. Mr.. Smith made the point of
no quorum. The committee then rose. and
at 5:45 the House adjourned.

According to the records of the War De-
partment. eleven steamships chartered by
the quartermaster's department for the
transportation of horses and mules to the
army in the Philippines and China. are
now on their way to the Pacific coast for
discharge. having served the purpose for
which they were chartered. They are the
Arab, Athenian, Pakling. Port Albert. Port
Stephens. Federico. Oopock. Wyefield.
Conemaugh, Leelenaw and Westminster.
They have all left Nagasaki, and are in
different stages of the journey across the
Pacific. The Arab. Athenian, Pakling Port
Albert and Port Stephens are bound for
Seattle and all the others for San Francis
CO. Unless further use is found for them
they will al. be discharged from govern
ment service on their arrival at their des-
tination. The charter price of these vessels
ranges from 500 to $500 day. and the
daily cost of the entire eleven is $5.725. so
that q considerable saving to the govern
ment win result from their discharge.

The Peru-Chile.r D,.pute.

From the representations made to the
State Department by Senior vicuna, the
Chilean minister, and others, 1t is gathered
that the present hitch between Chile on
the one side. and Peru and Bolivia on the
other. is found in the fact that. while both
sides are willing to determine the national
ity Of the provinces Of Tacna and AFRICA by
a plebescite. the Peruvians wish to limit
the vote to the Peruvians actually resident
In the territories while the Chi.eans In
sist that their fellow countrymen who
have gone into Tacna and africa, also shall
vote. In the latter case, 1t Is said, the
plebescite certainly would result In favor Of
Chile.

The Cubans and Spaniards, who are en-

Latin excitability is great, but there is also
the ingrained respect for authority. Though
the umpires decisions sometimes cause

Ion Of primitive one In front of the
cabin door. Here 1t was proposed to
put up gate. We also had talked
corral, but neither gate nor porthbles
were yet made. In fact, as said be- ,ore,
the serene and indolent man Of the sea
always slowly walked away down
through the grass toward his untracked
claim whenever there was anything
said about portfolios, posts or gates.
Father and we three little boys had
only got the last post set and solidly
"tamped" in the ground as the sun was
going down.
Suddenly we heard yell, then a yell
ing, then believing. This yelling was
heard in the high grass in the Camas
valley below, and the believing Of cat
tie came from the woody river banks
far beyond
Then up on the brown hills of the Or
egon sierras above us came the wild
answer Of the wild black cattle Of the
hills, and moment later, right and
left, the long black lines began to
widen out: then down they came, like
surging line in the grass below. We
were now almost in the center of what
would in little time be complete cir
Gle and cyclone of furious Spanish cat
tie.
And now here is something curious
to relate. Our own cows, poor, weary,
Immigrant cows of only a year before,
tossed their tails in the air, paved the
ground, beloved and fairly went wild
in the splendid excitement and tumult.
One touch Of nature made the whole
COW world kin!
Father clambered up on "buck
horse" and looked out over the stock
ade, and then he shouted and shook his
hat and laughed as had never heard
him laugh before. For there, GREATNESS,
coatless, hatless, came William Cross,
Esq, two small wolves and a very
small black bear! They were all max
ing good time, anywhere, any way to
escape the frantic cattle. Father used
to say afterward that "it was nip and
tuck between the four and hard to say
which was ahead" The cattle had
made quite "round up"
Iney all TOUR struggled In at the mar
row little gate at about the same time,
the great big, lazy sailor in hurry for
the first time in his life
But think of the GOODNESS Of the man
as he turned to us children with his
first gasp Of breath and said, "Bo-bo-
boys, I've bro-bro-brought you a lit
tie bearv'
The wolves were the little chicken
thieves known as coyotes, quite harm
less, as a rule, so far as man is concern
Ell, but the cattle hated them, and they
were terrified nearly to death.
The cattle stopped few rods from
the stockade. We let the coyotes 60,
but we kept the little bear and named
him Bill Cross. Yet he was never a bit
cross, despite his name.

Nettles are as rural remedy highly
calculated, l should say, to make the
patient "onaisy." Whipping with net
ties has been used in case Of lethargy,
numbness and palsy, with what effect
l cannot say, but this l do know
handling nettles regardless Of their
sting produces q numbness which de-
stroys for a time further sensitiveness
to their poison. Culpepper enumerates
no less than AZ diseases that are cured
by an application of nettles in one form
or another, among them leprosy, govt,
sciatica, itch, wounds and sores Of all
sorts. He also informs us that the
juice is effectual to "settle the palate
bf the mouth in its place." Has any
one experience Of the palate shifting
elsewhere? have not heard Of it..
Curtis says that ''in Arran and other
islands of Scotland q rennet Is made of
a strong decoction Of nettles. A quart
Of salt is put to three pints Of decoc-
ton and boiled. A spoonful will CO.
agulate a large bowl of milk"
Oh, that this too too solid flesh would melt,
Thaw and resolve itself into devil
Little did Hamlet think when he
gave utterance to this desire that he
had only To go to the nearest ditch
where grew nettles and periwinkle to
bring it about and yet Gerard, quoting
from Dioscorides first century,, says
that "nettles boiled with perrywinkles
maketh the body soluble and doth it by
kind of cleansing quality" Few who
believed it SO would care to try the ex-

A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.
"SOmething New Under the Sum-"

All Doctors have tried to cure Catarrh
by the use of powders, acid gases, in
halers and drugs In paste form. Their
powders dry up the mucous membranes,
causing them to crack open and bleed.
The powerful acids used in the inhalers
have entirely eaten away the same men,
branes that their makers have aimed to
cure, while pastes and ointments cannot
reach the disease. An old and expert
enced practitioner, who has for many
years made close study and speciality of
the treatment Of Catarrh, has at last per-
fected Treatment which, when faithful
ly used, not only relieves at once, but
permanently cures Catarrh, by removing
the cause, stopping the discharges, and
curing all Inflammation. 1t Is the only
remedy known to science that actually
reaches the afflicted parts. This wonder
full remedy Is known as "SNUFFLEs, the
GUARANTEED CATARRH CURE" and Is sold
at the extremely low price of One Dollar,
each package containing internal and ex-
ternal medicine sufficient for full months
treatment and everything necessary to its
perfect cure.
"Snufles" Is the only perfect Catarrh
Cure ever made, and Is now recognized as
the only safe and positive cure for that
annoying and disgusting disease. 1t cures
all inflammation quickly and permanently,
and Is also wonderfully quick to relieve
Hay Fever or Cold in the Head.
Catarrh when neglected often leads to

once, and write full particulars as to your
condition, and you will receive special ad-
vice from the discoverer of this wonderful
remedy regarding your case without cost

UNHEALTHY.

On, an imitation dollar very often passes fine,
And they give limitations in foodstuHs
when we dine!
An imitation beauty wins an imitation sigh;
You meet all kinds except, perhaps. an imitation
lie.
There is imitation laughter that conceals bitter
a sneer,
And imitation pathos brings an imitation tear,
And certain somber cynics sometimes tell us that
they saw
An imitation justice with an imitation law.
Outlines when you gloomy and you look into
the stars
And hear the wise ones limiting that there may be
in Mars
You wonder where the planet is, of simple, honest
worth,
That furnishes the pattern for this imitation
earth.

BIG ENOUGH TO HIT.
So Thought the Small Boy, but tn
Man Thought Differently.

Man Thought Differently.
He wasn't very big, but he was a
sturdy little chap with a face that bore
the marks Of much thinking and pre-
mature responsibility. l learned after
ward that he was supporting crippled
mother and an Invalid sister who had
been left helpless in the world by the
death Of her father. He might have
run away from home and evaded the
responsibility, but he didn't think of
1t. He just sold papers.
At the loop on Fifteenth street
crowd was gathered, waiting for the
evening cars. A ragged young girl was
selling flowers at the Fifteenth street
end Of the waiting station when a man,
rushing to catch his car, knocked her
against the side Of the building. With
out stopping, probably not having no
ticed what he had done, he continued
his rush, when the boy stepped in front
Of him defantly.
"Say, what do you want to knock
girl down for? Hit me. I'm big
enough" ...-....
The man paused in surprise and then
glanced around. He saw the flower
girl picking up her wares and under
stood. Without moments hesitation
he went back to her, gave her enough
money to make her eyes sparkle with
JOY and said:
I'm sorry, my dear, that hurt you.
l didn't see." Then. turning to the boy,
he continued: ''You said you were big
enough, young man, but you're a great
deal bigger than you think. Men like
you will have lot to do with keeping
this old world in a condition of self
respect"
Then he caught his car, and the boy
and the girl stood there wondering
what he meant.-Denver Times.
