FANS IN HISTORY.

0reatsums are spent in ornsmenting fans, and many were painted on by the skillful fingers of Vatican.
 In the eighteenth century the fan was held up to shield the face when anything shocking was uttered.
 The fan was first brought into Flu. ropean notoriety by Catherine de Medicis. who introduced it into France.
 In the east, the use of the fan is of remote antiquity. There is a fine col lection of fans among the Egyptian antiquities in the British museum.
 Fans are made. to a fair extent, in this country. The total value of the fans annually manufactured in the world is placed in excess of S5O0.0o0.
 Queen Elizabeth of England. when in full dress. carried a fan. During the sixteenth and seventeenth cen turies, fans were used by gentlemen.
 The manufacture of fans is exten- sively carried on in England, France and Belgium. Whole villages in Pi- cardy are employed in the various branches connected with the industry.
 The Chinese have greatly excelled in the art of fan making, and in the species of lacquered fans their supe- riority is admitted. Cheap fans are manufactured In Canton as low as two cents a dozen.
 In the palmy days of the French court, when Louis XVI. and Marie An toinette lived. there was 6 profiigate extravaganza in fans, which was ex- tremely profitable to the manufac- turers of them.
 In 1871 there was held. under the patronage of Queen Victoria, at the South Kensington museum, com petitive exhibition of fans. Large numbers were placed on exhibition from Egypt, Turkey and Mexico and the islands of the Pacific ocean, and included almost every private and public collection of any note. The queen received the highest premium. 5000. for 6 fan which once belonged A<> Mai. A.4o;n....

In an experimental test, submar- inc boat with a crew of six or seven persons, remained submerged at New York for fifteen hours. The top of the craft was six feet under water. The crew reports that there was not the slightest discomfort to them dur ing their more than fifteen hours of submersion below the surface. Capt. Cable of the Holland company, who was in command, said the boat could have remained down three months if there were food enough on board, Although there was but six feet of water over the top of the turret, those on board felt nothing of the storm which was raging during the latter part of the period they were sub merged.
 David K. Nation has been granted divorce from his wife, Carrie Nation, of saloon smashing fame. The court exonerated Mrs. Nation from the charge of cruelty to her husband and divided the property. The Medicine Lodge home is to go to Mir. Nation and the outlying property to the wife. In reply to questions of the court, Mrs. Nation said the reason that she fought the proceedings was that she wished to continue her share of the pension money drawn by her husband. Mir. Nation, in support of his petition for divorce, cited letter from his wife in which she denounced him as ''hell-bound hypocrite." This country seems to be passing through regular cycle of serious ac- cidents. Two ferry boats collided on Saturday night in dense fog of AL catraz island in the San Francisco bay. The boats were plying between San Francisco and Sausalito, and were named the Sausalito and San Rafael. The former struck the San Rafael amidships and the latter sunk in few moments after the collision. The San Rafael was headed for Saul salito and had between l50 and 200 passengers aboard. The Sausalito was headed for San Francisco and had but few passengers. The loss of life, while not known, is estimated at only three or four.

For Want Of a Nail The
 Shoe Was Lost.
FOR WANT OF A SHOE THE HORSE WAS LAMED.

Every blacksmith knows that story of the neglected nail, the cast shoe and the ruined horse. In old country smithy's you may see the legend rudely painted or chalked on the wall as reminder to customers that it pays to care for horses shoes, and that little neglect may have very serious result. But the blacksmith is, as a rule, like the good deacon, who passes on the pastors de- nunciation of his own foibles to some one else. It never occurs to him to take the sermon home to himself. The black smith has for example a little touch of rstomach trouble.r His food seems to

But this man who knows and breaches the danger of neglect in the loss of a nail from horses shoe goes right along neglecting symptoms which in scores and hundreds of cases are fore-runners of physical breakdown.
 DoNoTHING DOCTRINE.
 That's the doctrine of a great many indolent people. They say rit will go away after bit" when cautioned to udo something" for their ailment. Just imagine a farmer looking over the fence at the sprouting weeds in his corn and saying 'they'll go away after bit" Diseases are like weeds. All they ask is neglect. and they will grow and flour ish. Neglect the first symptoms of dis ease of the stomach and it will not be long before other organs are involved, because every organ of the body IS de pendent on the stomach and its allied organs for nutrition. When the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutri- tion are diseased the food eaten is not perfectly digested and assimilated. Hence there is loss of nutrition by the body; loss which shows itself in loss of flesh, and reduced weight, and that loss of nutrition is shared by every organ of the body, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, etc. As consequence when the stom- ach is diseased, the heart is liable to be involved, or the lungs, kidneys or liver. These facts emphasize the danger of neglect of what is popularly termed ustomach trouble"

MUCH INTERESTED
Cabinet Meeting Devotes Consider
able Time to Discussing
Cuban Constitution.

Washington, Feb. 1-At the cabinet
meeting today Secretary Hay spoke at
some length on the situation in China.
1t developed that the plenipotentiaries
of the powers are not making as rapid
progress toward settlement as was
hoped, and that many disturbing
questions have arisen in consequence.
Whether our forces in China shall
be increased, and the question of
whether it will be necessary to make
arrangements for more permanent
quarters for those now there, were
among the matters touched upon.
The Cuban constitution also was
the subject of discussion. Much
regret was expressed at seeming dead
lock in the constitutional convention
by which adoption of the constitution
may be long delayed. The admins
tration is greatly interested in the out
come Of the convention as to whether
this country will be recognized as hav-
ing rights in certain directions para.
mount to those of any other nation
The officials are not willing to dis
cuss the question as to what would be
satisfactory in that regard. but there
is no doubt that this government ex.
poets some recognition of the United
States at least to supervise, in g
measure to direct it's foreign policy
until such time as the new government,
is prepared toNtake it's place among the
responsible nations of the world.

WAR DEPARTMENT CONSIDER
ING NEW LAW.
RECRUITS NEEDED AT ONCE
All Principal Appointments Already
Practically Decided Upon
by President.

Washington, Feb. There will be
no delay at the war department in ex-
ecuting the army reorganization law.
The army scheme engrossed almost
the entire attention of the military au-
thorities today and the result will be
officially promulgated in general
orders as soon as the bill shall have
been signed by the president. The
matters which will receive the earliest
attention will be the appointments OF
the general and field officers and re-
cruiting of the 10 additional regiments
of infantry and cavalry authorized by
the bill. Recruiting stations have
been established at all the principal
centers of population and all available
officers in this country have been as
signed to recruiting duties.
There is immediate demand for at
least 5000 recruits to meet deficiencies
in the Philippines, caused by the nee
essary discharge Of the entire volun-
teer force by the 3Oth of June, at the
latest.
All the principal appointments pro-
vded for in the bill practically have
been decided upon by the president.
A list of these nominations have been
made out at the war department and
will be submitted to the senate with
out delay. In case the bill is signed
this week, which is confidently ex-
pected, the appointments already
agreed upon will be sent to the senate
early next week, possibly Monday.
These appointments will include a
lieutenant general, four major gen.
erals, nine brigadier generals and
colonies and other officers essential to
the organization Of the new regiments.
The impression prevails at the war
department. that General Miles will
undoubtedly receive the lieutenant
generalcy and that Generals MacArt-
hur, Wood, Wade and Young are most
likely to be made major generals, al
though it is possible that General
Merriam will be substituted for one OF
them.
Including the line and staff the
president will have about 1900 ap-
pointments to make.

The SHIPPING BILL
Occupies Attention of Senate
Another Day Without
Material Results.

Washington, Feb. 1.-The shipping
bill was kept steadily at the front in
the senate today, and in order to fur
Their expedite its progress a motion was
agreed to for a session beginning at II
a. m. tomorrow.
Senators Rawlins of Utah and
Berry Of Arkansas occupied most of
the time today in speeches Of vigorous
opposition.
Toward the close of the day a spir
tied discussion was precipitated by an
amendment offered by Clay of Georgia
proposing to link the Nicaragua canal
bill with the shipping bill. The prop
osition was strongly opposed by Frye
and Chandler as calculated to en-
barrass and delay the shipping bill.
Frye appealed to the senators to permit
the majority, after a fair debate, to
assum the responsibilities, as the ma
jority, of the shipping bill.
Jones Of Arkansas and Teller of
Colorado took a hand in the discus
sion, insisting that there be no limi-
tation of debate. Morgan of Ala
bama, in charge of the Nicaragua
canal bill, expressed disapproval Of the
plan for linking the canal Measure
with the shipping bill, saying each
should stand on it's own merits.
Washington, Feb. 2-The situation
in the senate Vas not changed by any
developments today. The republic
cans intend to continue pressing the
shipping bill and the leaders say next
week will develop whether or not the
opposition intends to talk the measure
to death.
The senators who are leading the
opposition say there are enough
speeches to consume 10 days and chat
some republicans are lending en-
couragement to the fight against the
bill. The opposition believes that the
desire to avoid an extra session will
soon force the appropriation bills and
the war revenue bill to the front and
prevent consideration or a vote upon
the shipping bill. A great deals de-
ponds upon the Gee of the republi'
cans in holding night sessions next
week.

til q late hour for three or four nights
the opposition might weaken. Thu
democrats say the republicans mus

for the bill which will ''sit up will
it, and show they are determined t.
pass it.

feels that it is necessary but they are
almost unanimous against the extra
session and will do everything possible
to prevent one being called.
Washington, Feb. 2-The senate
met at II O'Clock today and with the
exception of an hour and a half at the
beginning of the session, devoted the
entire day to a discussion of the ship
subsidy bill. Mr.. Turner and Mr..
