A Remedy For Teethins Troubles.

A Remedy For TeethinS Troubles.
For teething, q Surrey mother Of
twelve" has an excellent recipe which
in her experience has never failed At
the first symptoms the child must be
taken out early in the morning anc
placed upon the back Of a donkey to
be borrowed for the occasion. Care Is
required here, for the little patient
must sit exactly upon the cross on the
donkey's back and have his face to
the tail. The mother will then lead the
animal slowly forward while she re-
cites the Lords prayer, at the close Of
which she should take the baby in her
arms, kiss him and say, "God bless
him." and his teething troubles will be
over.
Oh, why did not our mother know all
this? What we might have been
spared!-London TIt-Bits.

CHICAGO, June 11.-MeaEer reports re

Business is Paralyzed.
FAMILIES LEFT DESTITUTE.
Crew Of Gable Steam Grappler Lost
Their Lives OFF Martinique.

United States Consul Van Horne at St.
Thomas reported to the Department of
State that the families of the sixty-five
Grappler, destroyed at Martinique, were
destitute and suffering at their homes N
St. Thomas. and he inclosed a letter from
James D. Lamb, relative of one of the
crew, appealing to President Roosevelt to
aid these unfortunates.
The act of Congress under which the gov
ernment came to the relief of the volcanic
sufferers in the West Indies specified only
Martinique and the British West Indies,
and there was no authority to spend any
government funds in St. Thomas. But a
small check came to Chief Clerk Michael
from some individual. intended to aid these
sufferers. The State Department, which
had been turning such contributions over
to the New York committee for the relief
of the West Indian sufferers, asked Chair
man Bliss to remit this check to st. Thorn
as and also to extend such additional aid
as was deemed necessary.
Gustav II. Schwab, chairman of the eX-
ecutive committee of the associated relief
committee, has just replied to the State
Department, in the absence of Mr.. Bliss.
He says: Il wish to thank you for the
further information contained in your let
ter with regard to the families of the crew
of the Grappler living destitute at St.
Thomas and to say that our committee
remitted the amount of 81, 500 to st. Thom-
as on Monday, the I'd instant, to Robert
dian and Panama Telegraph Company at
that place, to be employed for the relief of
the destitute families of the crew of the
cable ship Grappler."

PROTEST BY THE MINoRITx.
Opposed to Proposed Wholesale Killing
of Seals,

Five of the members OF the ways and
means committee today filed a minority re-
port on the bill proposing the killing of
the FUR seals unless a modus vivendi for
their permanent preservation is negotiated.
The minority members severely condemn
pelagic sealing and say the practice of
killing females of useful animals in their
breeding season is contrary to the universal
custom of mankind.
The British government, of all the gov
ernments concerned" continues the report.
"alone persists in permitting its subjects to
carry on practice SO barbarous as to i'm
part respectable hue to piracy
A letter is cited from President David
Starr Jordan of Leland Stanford University
stating that the threat to kill all the seals
is simply monstrous,- and would bring
upon US the odium which now properly
rests with Great Britain for her unwilling
ness to abolish the destructive agency of
pelagic sealing. The .ninority, therefore.
declare that the plan to kill the seals is
inconsistent with the humane and noble
policy this government has constantly taken
and that II the British government, abusing
the freedom of the seas is willing to de-
stroy one of the choice gifts of Providence
to mankind, it should be permitted to bear
the responsibility unaided and alone.
Messrs. Russell, Mccall and Metcalf, re-
publcans, and Mcclellan sand Newlands
democrats sign the report.

GOVERNMENT AID DESIRED.
President of Charleston Exposition
Company Heard on Lattimer Bill.

Capt. F. w. Wagner, president of the
Charleston Exposition Company, was heard
by the select committee of the House on
industrial arts and expostions this morn
ing on the Lattmer bill appropriatfng
100000 for the relief OF the exposition COM
pany.
1t was stated that although the exposi-
tton had been a success as far as benefi-
cial results to the country were concerned,
1t had run behind financially Money was
due to contractors directly to the amount
Of $4,000; the sum of $4,000 had been
overdrawn from the Charleston banks bv
the officers of the company without secur-
ity, while these officers had drawn $4,000
from the banks and given notes therefor
as security. The government was asked
to make the appropriation on the ground
that the country had been benefited It
was also stated that the expense to the ex-
position company of supplying lights, wa
ter, etc, to the government would amount
to more than the sum now asked for An
appropriation of 100000 was made by Con-
gress to defray the cost of its exhibit, while
S2oOo0O was asked. If the present request
was granted it would only comply with the
original request and would be no more than
the government had done for other exhi-
bitions.
The committee took no action in the mat
ter.

in the strike. These men are all expected
to return to work as soon as all the mines
are in operation"

Gus coffee plantations of the republic, ac-
cording to report made public at the
State Department today from United States
Consul General McNally at Guatamala City.
While the coffee trees themselves suffered
little damage, he says, dwellings, store
houses and coffee machinery on nearly all
the estates were more or less seriously in
jured. The consul general says that the
coffee crop will not be one-half what was
looked for before the visitation. Moreover,
he points out, that there is poor prospect
for repairing the damage on the coffee plan
