A French medical journal cites n
number of cases where great and last
ne benefits were derived by people suf-
fering from dyspepsia and abdominal
diseases from n gentle massage treat
ment of the abdomen. One case men,
toned is that of n young man aged 20
years who for six months had been suf-
fering with his stomach. In spite OF
varied treatment he was gradually
growing worse and looked like one in
the last stages OF phthisis. He suf-
fered from constipation and insomnia.
He was very nervous and was con-
WINGED that he was about to die. After
instituting the abdominal massage his
condition rapidly improved. His alb
domen, which had resembled that of Il
child with meningitis, became supple
and daily enlarged. The treatment
was not severe nor very special. His
pain disappeared. and he was able to
digest all that was given to hing. The
patient gained in six months about 90

CONS7ITUTION TAKES n SPIN.
A Short Sail Yesterday for Purpose of
Drying Her Sails.

Newport, r. l., May 26.-Shortly after
9 o'clock this morning the Constitu-
ton started up the bay for little spin.
Her sails were mainsail, jib, staysall,
and flying jib. When she left her moor
ings in the rear of the torpedo station
w. Butler Duncan was at the helm and
a gentle sailing, breeze was blowing
from the east. The trip was simply
to dry her sails, which were thoroughly
soaked from the heavy downpour of
Saturday afternoon and had it not been
for that fact the big sloop would have
remained at her moorings the entire
day.
About II o'clock the yacht returned
10 her anchorage. During her absence
she ran as far as Prudence Island,
which was a broad reach both ways.
Vice Commodore August Belmont,
Newbury D. Thorne and Joseph Harri-
man were guests aboard the boat. When
Mr.. Duncan came ashore he stated
that the programme of the yacht for
the greater part of the week would be
simply runs up and down the bay, not
for speed but to test her sails and
rigging, in the most thorough manner.
If these are found to be satisfactory the
yacht will probably begin her runs out
side during the latter part of the week,
when all her sails will be tried
Everything connected with the boat
worked in the most satisfactory man

Ogden, Utah, May 26.-The presiden-

da to-day and reached Ogden at 630
o'clock tonight. The route lay along
the Humboldt river, through the Ruby
and Washata mountains. At this sea-
son of the year the ride across Nevada
is exceedingly disagreeable. The heat
is oppressive and the dust from the
desert is frequently binding. Fortu-
nately for Mrs. Mckinley one of those
heavy rain storms which so rarely visit
this region swept completely over the
state last night, laying the dust and
tempering the atmosphere. Rain also
fell several times during the day. The
weather seemed almost like a special
intervention of Providence for the ben
eft of the gentle sufferer. Chicago, ac-
cording to the present schedule, will be
reached Tuesday afternoon and the
train is expected to arrive at Washing
ton Wednesday night.

FORTUNES OF GERMAN ROYALTY.
Dental of Report That They Were swept
Away by IA SsvindIer.

Berlin, May 26-The statements pub
lished in the United States by news
agency to the effect that the private
fortunes of the Emperor and Empress
of Germany and other members of the
royal family had been almost entirely
swept away by the operations of a
swindler have been closely investigat-
ed here with the result that the state
ments referred to are found to be abso-
lutely without foundation
There are even not any rumors afloat
concerning these alleged losses by their
majesties. The correspondent of the
Associated Press obtains his Informal
ton to deny the truth of these state
ments from absolutely authentic
sources. This denial is not only based
upon direct information from the entire
encourage of the emperor, but from
leading financiers as well-men who
would surely know if the matter were
true.
