Buffalo, N. r., April 27.-With the opening of the gates of the Pan-Ameri- can Exposition still four days away, the work of construction is in re- markedly advanced stage, considering the setback caused by the storm of a week ago.

ARTISTIC WORK SEIZED.
Pictures Adorning the Walls of the
 Secret Service Bureau.

The walls of the office of Chief Wilkie, profusely decorated with specimens of the counterfeiter's art, as well as genuine oil paintings depicting the United States gold and silver certificates in all sizes and colors. giving it the appearance of a gall lery of a faddest, instead of the grim, cold matter-of-fact business office of the head of the American Secret Service Bu- reau.
 Among the specimens of money display ed is piece of pen and ink work which is a fine bit of art, and Is worth many times as much as the amount it repre- sents. Then there Is an oil painting rep resenting four small barrels heaped with paper money of all denominations. An other painting of United States g note about ten times the size of the genuine article occupies a prominent part of the office.
 The rules and regulations of the secret service prescribe the seizure of every thing resembling United States money or stamps, irrespective of size. color, ma terial, or inscriptions of the imitation. There are artists who waste their skill on painting pictures with United States pa- per money within the frame, but as soon as the attention of the secret service of- ficers is called to the existence of such picture they make it their business to go on hunt for 1t. and on discovery. seize 1t. The artist is the loser; he has no redress at all.
 It is the contention of the secret service officials that an artist who discovers his talent and genius in truthfully reproduc- ing United States money is liable to turn his attention, in case necessity should pursuade him. to the manufacture of counterfeit money.
 A short time ago a New York art firm asked permission from the bureau to ex- hibit painting which was described in

a newspaper clipping that was enclosed with the letter, as follows: [
 "Mr. Frederick Dalton, the distinguished New York artist, who is a guest of the Rev. Bernard P. Murphy, at the paro- chial residence of St. Bernard's church. Eaglewood, has just completed a unique work of art, which Is to be placed on exhibition at the Auditorium. It is an oil painting on canvas of a bunch Of greenbacks, so vivid in effect and worked out In such perfect detail that one can scarcely imagine that the bills are not the genuine article. The central figure Is $100 note. issued by the Second National Bank of Danforth, Kan, the original Of which is in the possession of Father Mur- phy. Underneath the painting Is the fn- scrfption, Take one,' and person not knowing beforehand that it was simply a clever deception might attempt to do so.
 Unfortunately for the artist and owner of the painting the eagle eye of the secret service man made it his business to in- vestigate the reliability of the report. seized the painting and forwarded 1t to Washington, where 1t now graces the mantel in Chief Wilkie's office"

 gross:
 'The dispatch of General Grant chang ed my purpose. and accordingly I tele- graphed him as follows: Say to the gentlemen | will meet them personally at Fortress Monroe as soon as I can get there
 And he did get there, and at once, and the whole story of that conference in the rolling waters of Hampton Roads, within hailing distance of the scene where iron clads first met in battle in the encounter of the Monitor and the Merrimac, affords the most interesting recital of our un- written history.

Stephens own lips how the Southern commoner, dwarf in stature, but a giant in intellect. upon reaching the cabin of the boat stop ped to unwind the coverings which pro- tected his frail body from the bleak sea winds, and how, after gloves and com forters and scarfs and great coats were removed, he was met by President Lin coin with the characteristic greeting: Well, Stephens. that's the littlest nub bin 1 ever saw from such a quantity of shucks."
 have seen the half regretful pathos in his wonderful eyes as he told how Lin coin, animated by his strong love of country, had said to the commissioners: Let me write the one word union at the head of our agreement and you may supply the rest
 The conference was fruitless of prac- tical results on account of arbitrary limitations of power in prescribing the conditions of peace. But MT. Stephens believed to the day of his death that had the commission been clothed with plen- ary power, peace would have been ac- complished on a basis of union, and of mutual concessions in other details of difference.
 Perhaps SO; perhaps not. Perhaps it was best that the war should drag it's cruel length along to it's tragic culmina- ton. Perhaps it was best that an issue born almost with the republic itself. and that had baptized its devotees in the blood of brothers, should only find it's fitting death on the bloody battlefield. But long after the echoes of war have died away and the efforts of the confer ence are forgotten, the world of peace will do reverence to the memory of the great soldier who almost on the eve of final victory. sheathed his dread sword and stretched out his sword-arm with open hand to strive for peace!

Hon. E. A. Frost, manager of the roe street and Wabash avenue, Chicago, Ill.,, says in 8 recent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co.,, of Columbus, O., the fol- lowing words in praise of their catarrh remedy, Peruna:
 The Peruna Medicine Company, Columbus, O.:
 GenfIem en-" Before taking Peruna ' had suffered for twenty years from maLfria 10 the extent that ' had chronic neuraIgia of fhe stomach, and could nor sit ouf in the night air without suf- fering the next day. had tried many s0-caIled remedies buf-wifh only partial and temporary re- lief # has been two years since ' used Peruna bur ' am satisfied that my cure Is complete and per- manenf. "-Edwin A. Frost. NoTHING in the world produces 1N more disastrous @nema of the nerve centers than neuralgia. Any one who has ever had neuralgia will find himself constantly liable to nervous troubles. This is especially true if he has been subject to taking much quinine.
 Peruna Increases Nutrition.
 Neuralgia is always an expression of nerve weakness. Some nerve center has been deprived of nutrition, and neural gia is the signal of distress which this nerve center is able to make. Thus it is that neuralgia depends on a want of nutrition of the nerve centers.
 Peruna increases the nutritive value of the food and does it by correcting the digestive organs. After the digestive organs have been once put in good working order by Peruna then the food is able properly to nourish the body.
 This is how 1t happens that Peruns cures many cases of old neuralgia which have resisted all other forms of treat. ment. Peruna is not a specific for neu. ralgia, but it is specific for catarrhal affection of the digestive organs. There is no remedy in the world that is so sure to put the digestive organs in good working order as Peruna.
 Peruna Strikes the Source.
 All diseases, including neuralgia, tha, depend on want of proper nutrition are curable by course of Peruna

Peruna strikes at the foundation of all chronic diseases by increasing the ru- tritive function of the digestive organs. The case of neuralgia narrated by Hon. B. A. Frost as above is splendid illustration.
 Doctors Surprised.
 N. B. Bunker, Newman, Cal, writes: "I was sick for nine years with one of the worst cases of catarrh of the stomach possible. All that time did not have g. natural taste in my mouth. Could not eat, barely kept life in me by nibbling- could eat nothing of any substance, only soft foods, and little of that. got as low as 10s pounds. The first cause was la grippe. By accident used Peruna; began it last February. I have now been well six or seven months-entirely well. Am heavier than for thirty years. Doctors are surprised as are all my friends. have advertised Peruna ex- tensively in many parts of the state; personally, many are helped. am very thankful. ."-N. E. Bunker.
 "Never Felt Better"
 Mrs. T. E. Frech writes from Excel,
  Tenn, as follows:
 "Having been afflicted with catarrh and stomach trouble for seven years tried four different doctors. They only relieved me for 8 little while. I gave up all hope of being cured, having been re- duced to 18O pounds. Twas so weak l could scarcely get out of the room. l was induced to try Peruna and to my great surprise am now entirely we'll. My weight is now 1s8 pounds and l never felt better in my life. I shall always praise Dr. Hartman and his remedies, Mrs. T. Frech.
 If you do not derive prompt and satis. factory results from the use. of Peruna, write at once to Dr. S. B. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio, giving a full statement Of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis.
