After Twenty-Five Years,
SUFFERING

special News from Evansville, Wis.
EVANSVILLE, WIS, Nov. 11.-A
woman cured OF catarrh of Twenty-Five
years standing was the occasion of
Peruna being introduced to the inhab-
itants of Evansville, Wis. From that
time to this there has been a great de-
mand for Peruna in this vicinity and
hundreds of cases have been cured.
1t is in this manner that Peruna
spreads from town to town and from
state to state. No sort of advertising
could have given Peruna the reputa-
ton 1t has. The secret of it's success
is that it makes cures 1t cures old
cases of catGrrh where other remedies
have failed. This ought to make any
remedy popular.
Mr.. c. Il. Harden, of Evansville.
WIS., writes the following letter:

let you have 1t with contents, what

him up and the landlord pretended to
be greatly surprised and amused when
he opened the lid and disclosed the dir
ty rubbish. He was privately delighted
to have the joke put on some other fell
low. However. the miner accepted the
situation good naturally, relocked the
trunk and sent II away, rocks and air.
The truth was he had recognized the
stuff at a glance as the richest kind
of decomposed quartz, full OF free gold.
and a few days afteward nearly $4,000
was smelted out of it. Being simple
minded and scrupulously honest, he
went back and divided the spoils with
the landlord who experienced a second
shock more severe than the first
Where the ore came from 1t was never
known, but the supposition was that
II had been stolen from one of the
rich gold mines in the southern part
of the state. It was no uncommon
thing for miners to purloin the richest
pieces from the heart Of vein and
carry them out in their dinner pals,
and possibly IL was in that way that
this trunkful was accumulated. What
became Of the red faced stranger from
San Juan was another mystery never
solved, but in those rough days the
disappearance OF one man more OF

TURKEYS SPY SYSTEM.

should not be surprised If he were in

The speaker was All Nouri Bey, ex-

He hopes one day to help dethorne
Abdul Hamid and to place Murad back
on the throne.
All Nouri Bey has been several times
imprisoned in Turkey for seeking to
act up to his political convictions. He
has now been sentenced to 101 years
imprisonment: SO, unless there is a
change Of rule, he cannot go back to
Turkey safely until 2002.
He chatted with an Express represent
tative yesterday, and told strange sto-
ries of the expelled Paris spies and of
| the Turkish spy system generally. In
Turkey facts are stranger than comic
opera,
"Sinapian Effendi, who is an Arme-
MAN, was chief of the spies in Paris.
Officially he holds a position under the
Turkish ministry of public works and
has the same rank as an ambassador.
Feridoun Bey was also chief of spies,
although officially known as the sur
veyor of students. He and Sinapian
Effendi spent most Of their time in
watching each other.
why Feridoun Bey has come to Lon
don, and whether he will stay, don't
know. Possibly he may be organizing
a system of spies to watch the mem
bers Of the legitimist party here. It
is immaterial to US.
THE Sultan has spies in every capt.
tai in Europe, and spies travelling
about all over Europe. He wastes
more on his secret service every year
than he spends on the whole of the
legitimate Turkish budget. The spies
always get their salaries whoever else
goes unpaid.
1.-The spies spy on the legitimists and
young Turks. but chiefly on each
other. Every Turkish spy Il watched
by several other Turkish spies.
They are all humbugs. Whenever
there Is any plotting going on against

FATAL GERMAN DUEL.
Two Lieutenants Meet on the Field
of Honor and One is Killed.

of Honor and One is Killed.
Berlin, Nov. s.-The public mind was
considerably excited this week on ac-
count of a duel at Insterburg, East
Prussia, in which Lieut.. Blaskowitz
of the army was killed by Lieut.. Hill
debrand, also of the army. The mill
tary officials have not yet made a
statement of the facts in the case. but
the National Zeitung has obtained an
authoritive account of the meeting
which is as follows: Lieuts. Hide
brand and Rasmussen met Lieut.. Bias
kowitz going home one night in a
state of intoxication. carried him to a
spot near his residence and left him
there. They returned to the spot
later. however, and found Blaskowitz
crouching against a wall, asleep, and
tried to arouse him and get him upon
his feet. Blaskowitz, being ig-
norant of the identity of
the two men who were en-
deavoring to assist him, struck right
and left in his semi-somnolent state
and hit Lieut.. Hilderbrand. The lat
ter considered himself insulted by the
blow received and reported the affair
to the court Of honor, which decided
that a duel was unavoidable, where
upon Lieut. Hildebrand challenged
Lieut.. Blacowitz. The latter, however.
unconscious of what had occurred
while he was intoxicated, went to Ety.
leu the next day to attend a party held
at the house of a young lady whom he
was to marry on the following day.
When a telegram recalling him to meet
Hildebrand was received, Blaskowitz
wanted to settle the matter with an
apology, but the highest officers of the
brigade and division sanctioned the
finding of the court of honor, that a
duel was necessary, and it ended in
the maner stated.
Newspapers of all shades of opinion
express amazement at the-action of the
court of honor. Even the conservative
papers regard the action of the court
as being incomprehensible. 1t is ex-
pected that the case will come before
the Reichstag. The papers use the
strongest language against permitting
duels like the above. holding that the
superior officers are responsible.

A MARVELLOUS CLOCK.

From the London Telegraph.
A poor German matchmaker has just
achieved a wonderful work OF ingenu-

ical and calendar clock. Twenty-four
years ago he was fired TO attempt the
task by a study OF the famous horoloe-
ical monument at Strasburg Cathedral.
He Immediately began TO execute his
design TO excel even this surprising
piece OF ingenuity. For nineteen years
he devoted all his time TO the proJct.
At one time, his means being OF the
scantiest character, he had no alterna-
tive but to sell by degrees everything
he could spare. His wife, being ex-
tremely indignant at this procedure,
brought her complaints before the To-
cal magistrate. He promised her his
help, being convinced that a mans
mind must be deranged who thought he
could make an astronomical calendar

NEW STEEL CORPORATION.
Fifty Million Dollor Combination OF
Plate Mills Formed.


Philadelphia, Nov. 9.-The North
American tomorrow will say:
A new $4,000, 900 steel corporation
is being formed for the purpose Of
uniting in one powerful combination
the plate mills of the country. Ten
or more plants. including Pennsylvania
companies that are now doing large
business, are to be absorbed by the
new concern.
Four of the properties are east of
the Alleghanies. These are the Lux
ems Iron Works of CoatesviIe, the
Tidewater Steel Company, Chester;
the Central Steel Company, Harris
burg, and the Worth Brothers Mills.
These four represent an active esti-
mated capitalization of about 100000
900.
1t is understood that the Jones and
Laughlin Company of Pittsburg, a cor
poration with $20O00,000 capital, will
enter the corporation and will be the
strongest concern in it. Details re-
garding the Western interests, that will
be represented, are lacking, but these
will probably be made known in the
course of a few days in an official an
nouncement of the project.
A significant feature of the deal is
the active part taken in it by Charles
NJ. Schwab president of the United
States Steel Corporation. Mr.. Schwab
attended a conference held in this city
early in the week and had much to do
with shaping the plans Of the concern.
This is believed to indicate that it will
be operated in harmony with the bill
lion dollar corporation and that even
tually the new company may become
identified with Mr.. Schwabs corpor-
alton.
The joint output of all the companies
aggregates 475000 tons.
The new company will take up the
securities of the constituent concerns,
both by means of cash payments and
an exchange of stock upon a basis not
yet made known.
