similar wagons if Webster is success full in defying the crusaders.
 In the rear end of the boiler-iron joint there is huge door, with fas- tenings inside. It cannot be opened from the outside except with a key. Inside. there are seats for dozen persons, with cushions on them, and across the center there is small bar. Behind the bar there is room for two or three kegs of beer and good sup ply of whisky.
 Webster will have the wagon painted to resemble weatherboard covering and there will be surprise in store for the first crusader to strike it with hatehet. It is not his intention to entertain many of his customers in- side the boiler-iron joint, but to serve the most of them through the port holes on the sides and at the ends.
 In the front end of the boiler-iron room and behind the bar there is a trap door in the floor, which Webster says will be used toopen into an under ground passage when he locates the joint in Florence. He owns lot there on which he intends to locate the joint. The underground passage has already been constructed and leads to stable on his premises.

HEARTS OF THE BLUE RIDGE.

HEARTS OF THE BLUE RIDGE.
 Hal Reld's pretty southern play ssHearts of the Blue Ridge" opens this evening at the Jacques, for the first half of the week. The cast of char acters is an exceptionally good one and the company is one of strength and balance. The story of the play IS thfilling in its intensity of the passions <portrayed by the skilful hand of the author. It depicts a bitter southern feud between the families of mountain eers but he hatreds and loves of these sturdy people are so happily blended with a sufficient modicum of comedy and mirth that the interest of the spec tators never wanes from the first act to the last. The singing of the Blue Ridge auartet'' as well as the buck and wing dancing are features that add greatly to the enjoyment of the audi enee.

Capt. Charles G. Treat, New /Com- mandnnt of Cadets at the Na-

The appointment of Capt. Charles G. Treat as commandant of cadets and instructor of tactics at the military academy at West Point gives general satisfaction at the institution, where Capt. Treat enjoys great popularity. He will succeed Lieut.. Col. Otto L.. Hein, whose four years of service will expire in June. The new commandant is graduate of the military academy, to which he was admitted from Wis consin, although he was born in Maine. He was graduated in 1882. and assigned as second lieutenant in the

BOILER IRON SALOON.
Nothing But Dynamite will Destroy This Absolutely Crusade-ProOf
 Joint on Wheels.

"A joint wagon is being made at St. Joseph, Mo-, out of boiler iron in or- der to resist the attacks of Mrs Ma tion's crusaders in Kansas. It is for Jack Webster, refugee jointist from Florence, Kan.
 Richard J. Garvey, president of the Anchor Machine company, says the wagon will be absolutely crusade proof and that unless it is blown up with dynamite Webster will be safe. The wagon has not been weighed yet, but Garvey says four mules can pull 1t easily. He expects that many more orders will come in from Kansas for

there. I knew him we'll, saw him and dead. It was Booth. I know what I know, and saw the man lying there, cold in death. The gunboat was an chored between the arsenal and the navy yard, but nearer the yard than the arsenal"
 What was done with the body after the post-mortem examination do not know. It was generally understood at that time that the body was buried in the old penitentiary ground, where the arsenal now is; where the bodies of the other conspirators were buried, near the place where occurred the ex- cautions. of Harold, Payne, Atzerodt and Mrs. Surratt. My impression was, as everybody here believed, that Booths body was disinterred, ten years later, and laid beside that of his father in the family burying ground, near Baltimore. But those are only impressions and beliefs. As I said be- fore, l do not know what was done with the body. But do know that it
 was the face of John Wilkes Booth that l saw and touched on the gunboat in the eastern branch of the Potomac that afternoon"
 During the revolutionary war, and subsequent thereto, after the commits sion of his crime, the relatives of Rene dict Arnold were ashamed of their kin ship, and no member of that family has ever since desired to have the kin ship known. During the period fol- lowing the dastardlly deed of the tra- gedian assassin no member of the Booth family felt free from the dis grace of his tragic act. Those now liv- ing and those of subsequent genera tions will avoid claim of kinship, Be- cause of this natural family pride.

The shark in Commerce.

Many people who hold the shark in fear and trembling hardly believe that it's carcass is highly valued for commercial purposes, but, as mat ter of fact, thousands of sharks are annually cut up and the skins dried and sold at from S3 to $6 each, ac- sording to size. The drying process makes the skins as hard as adamant and as smooth as mother-of-pearl. The material is known as "shagreen,' g and is used mostly for making whip handles and for covering instrument cases. 1t is also used by cabinet mak- CTS for polishing fine woods. The fins are made into glue that is used very extensively by silk manufac- turerss

CANCER

Sufferers from this horrible ma1ady
nearly always inherit it-not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its ap-
pearance-or a swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part Of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perma-
nently all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood-every vestage
IF it driven out. This S. S. S. does, and
IS the only medicine that can reach deep
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this.
When all the poison has been forced out
of the system the Cancer heals, and the
disease never returns.
Cancer begins often in a small way, asthe
following letter from Mrs. Shirer shows :
A small pimple came on my jaw about an inch
below the ear on the left side OF my face. Itgave
