the volunteer army during the recent war
with spain. Inc daughter became Mrs.
Mckee, the mother Of Baby" Mckee.
Prior to his formal withdrawal from the
presidential arena. Gen. Harrison interest
ed the public by the announcement, on
January 49, Of his engagement to a niece
OF his first wife, Mrs. Mary Scott Lord
Dimmlck. OF New York. Her first husband

ployed as counsel for Venezuela in the
celebrated arbitration over the boundary
dispute with England. He spent months
In preparing the case. and made a lengthy
speech before the arbitration committee
at Paris. and. on returning to this country,
remarked that he had never had case
In which he felt SO completely on the right
side and 80 thoroughly prepared. The de-
cisiop, which was compromise. was a
keen disappointment to him. He felt
piqued that the court should have made a
compromise instead Of deciding the case on
its inertia.

CASHIER IN JAIL.
Man who Wrecked y hank at Niles,
Mich, IL Captured In Columbus,
O., and COnfesses.

Columbus, O., March 1s.-Charles A..
johnson, cashier of the First nation
al bank of Niles, Mich, was arrested
here Sunday on a charge of wrecking
that institution. He was placed in
the emergency hospital at the police
station because Of his physical con-
dition. He was surprised at his ar
rest, but promptly confessed his
guilt and expressed a desire to return
TO Michigan as soon as possible. He
is badly broken in health, much
emaciated and very nervous, due part
ly to the severe nervous strain of the
last ten days and to excessive drink
ing.
Johnson for 25 years was cashier
of the Niles national bank, and was
trusted implicitly by the officials A
short time ago he began dabbling in
stocks, and to cover his losses, it is
claimed, began to steal from the
bank. His method was the manipu-
lation of forged notes and checks.
but the details of his system were
not impaired to the Columbus police.
About two weeks ago the depositors
of the bank learned that Johnson
was playing the markets. Then in
some manner they became advised
of the forged notes, and the result
was run on the bank, which closed
its doors. Johnson fed at the first
indication of the impending crash,
and came direct to Columbus. His
wife and little daughter went to Chi
caro-

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.

What suffering frequently results
from mothers ignorance or more
frequently from mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter
Tradition says woman must suf-
fer" and young women are so taught.
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment, and her mother should see
that she gets 1t.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to physician for examine
ton but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address ID

Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South
Byron, Wis, mother of the young lady
whose portrait we here publish, wrote
Mrs. Pinkham in January, 1899, saying
her daughter had suffered for two
years with irregular menstruation-
had headache all the time, and pain in
her side, feet swell, and was generally
miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly
replied with advice, and UNDER date of
March, 1899, the mother writes again
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound cured her daughter of all
pains and irregularity.
Nothing in the world equals Mrs.
Pinkham's great medicine for regu-
lating woman's peculiar monthly
troubles

Notes of the Game.

Still slipping backward. Won't Mana
ger Manning or some philanthropically in
ciined admirer of the sport kindly put
some sand on the tracks?
The Senators and Philadelphia will play
another double-header this afternoon.
Lee and Mercer will probably do the
twrling for the home people.
Harry Davis, the Athletics FIRST base
man. sent the ball over the centre field
fence in the first game. This is the first
time this has been accomplished by any
player.
Manager Manning may spring new
player or two on this afternoons assem-
blage-
Farrell plays a mighty good game at
second. and there is none of the webbing
around in Uncle Joe Quinn's shoes that
was looked for by many of the fans.
Quinn is said to have gone back to his
undertaking shop.
The bleacherites cheered Clingman
when he struck out.
Lee was sent in to bat for Patten in
the ninth inning IN the second game, al
though there was hardy the faintest
chance in the world of the Senators pull
ing out of the hole If Lee or Mercer had
been put into the game in the last in
ming of the first game. there might have
been another story to tell of the conflict.

DEPARTMENT GAME A TIE.
Printers Become Sprinters and Over
take the POstmen.

The game yesterday at the National
Ball Park between the Postoffice team
and the Printing Office nine was called
at the end of the seventh inning. the
score being to 3. The postmen started
the scoring in the initial inning getting
one man across the plate. The printers
did not score in their half, but made up
for the time they lost by getting four in
the succeeding inning by several fielders'
choices and heavy hitting by the type
settlers. The mailmen succeeded in get
ting another in the third. while the North
Capitol Street men could get no farther
than third base. The postmasters got
trio of counters in the fourth. which set
them one to the good. They decided to get
five above the board before they would
allow the types to score in the sixth
They did the trick by getting one in the
fifth and adding another trio in the sixth
They then took their positions in the
field. thinking they were enough ehead
OF the game to win, but their eyes were
opened when they saw three sacks oc-
cupied and a 300-pounder at the batting
slab. The batter was not allowed to lay
his avoirdupois against the sphere, how
ever, the twirler preferring to hit him on
the calf. This forced a man across the
line, and the bases were still full. One OF
the typographical artists then sent a
bruiser into centre. while the men oc-
cupying the corners sprinted home with
the tying runs.
Each team tried hard to land on the
leather for winning run in the seventh
but neither succeeded in touching il up
for the much-wanted tally When the
printers got their seventh rap at the
spheroid the game was called on account
of darkness
The printers will play an exhibition
game at Chesapeake Beach with the team
representing that place this afternoon at
o'clock This will not interfere with
the regular league game to be played at
the National Park between the Census
and Bureau teams. The game between
these two teams promises to be one of
the hardest fought battles of the season
as they are the top notchers and have
defeated nearly all the other teams.
