Alex Thweatt has a Wonderful Boat

New York World.
 Col. Alexander S. Thweatt General Passenger Agent of the Southern Rail- way. is the owner of a queer, canoe- shaped craft that has a history. The boat is said to be a wonder as far as speed Is concerned. and Colonel Thweatt vOuches for her sea going qualities
 The strange craft was built many years ago on the Nile. It was designed, accord ing to the Colonel, for Arabi Pasha, who presented it to a millionaire. who in turn willed it to Colonel Thweatt.
 The strange craft was unpacked yes- terday in the cellar under the office of the Southern Railway, at the northwest corner of Broadway and Twenty-eighth Street
 The bow of the boat represents a croc- rows of snowwhite teeth. The stern is in the shape of flying ish's tail. There are large fins Just behind the head and in front of the stern.
 There are two water-tight cOmpart- ments in the boat The center is large enough to hold one person. A double pad dle is used for propeling the strange craft.
 Colonel Thwcatt will keep tho boat at the Southern Railways office for a few days. He has mot decided vet when he will take his first spin in her.
 The boat is of mahogany. Colonel Thweatt said that the former owner thought at one time of presenting her to the Metropolitan Museum. but he was averse tN the public attention which such a gift would have invited.

Ancient Tombs in Egypt |.


 News has come to hand that Dr. Elliot smith professor of anatomy in the Ned teal School at Cairo, has been given two months leave of absence to investigate at once some human remains discovered in Girga in pprr Egypt. The graves containing the remains are said to consist of continuous series extending over an interval of at IcJSt SGt1 years which represents the mCst archaic of prehistoric periods. The bodies are SD well preserved, owing doubtiess to the Iryness of the at mosphere where they were inferred and to the perfection of into rmcat. that not only can hair, nails and fragments be made out, but Inc muscles and nerves. In almost every case the brain is said to he preserved, and the climax has been reached in two examples where the eyes with lens lu good condition arc present, and III "tor"s in which Dr. Elliot Smith has dlr"f ty observed the limb pleXure5 and great spIanrhnic nerve. There are also now HNo.rthcd series of later pre- mSt".Ir graves. ranging throughout th9 first fifteen dNnIStieS. others of the eigh- t""Eth, and vet others of the PtOlemaio ami carly and recent CDptiC periods. This vast 'yemctcryA has been eXcavated by br. Eo.~n"r of the University of Califor- nld, and W" can hut congratulate him aud tn" Egyptian Government on having secured the ServlceS of so competent an ntiruNotomist as pr.

On the theory that seeing is believ- ing, John A. Smith of Milwaukee, wants everyone to try his remedy for the cure or rheumatism at his expense For that reason he proposes to distribute 2500J boxes among all persons sending him their address. Mir. Smith had suffered all the agony and torture from rheuma- tism, tried all the remedies known and yet utterly failed to find relief
 At times he was so helpless that he had to take morphine and after consider able doctoring he gave up in despair He began studying into the causes of rheu- matism and after much experimenting nrally hit upon a combination of drugs which completely cured him. The result was 90 beneficial to his entire system that he called his new found remedy "Gloria Tonic.' Those of his friends relatives and neighbors suffering from rheumatism were next cured and Mir Smith concluded to offer his remedy to ncult one as nearly everybody had tried hundred or more remedies and they couldn't be made to believe that there was such a thing as a cure for rheuma- Usm But an old gentleman from Seguin 1exas, wrote him saying if MT. Smith would send him a sample he would try 1t. but as he had suffered forty-one years and wasted fortune with doctors and advertiSed remeCies, he wouldn't buy anything more. until he knew it was worth something. The sample was sent he purchased more and the result was astonishing. He was completely cured. TEis gave Mir. Smith a new idea and ever since that time he has been sending out free sample boxes to all who apply.

In Bennington, Vt. it cured an old man whom the best physi- clans of Worms and Frankfurt, Ger many, called incurable This old gentle man had walked for 20 years on crutches, both legs having been lame. He can now physicians had to admit that Gloria Tonic is a positive success, among them pr. Quintero of the University of Ven ezuela. to whom it was recommended by the United States Consul. In thousands of other instances the result has been the same It cured many cases which defied Hospitals. Drugs, Electricity and Medical Skill, among them persons over 75 years old.
 Mir. Smith will send a trial box, also his illustrated book on rheumatism. ab- The Advertiser. for he is anxious that everybody should profit by his good for tune. It is a remarkable remedy and there Is no doubt but that 1t will cure any case of rheumatism, no matter how severe it may be. MT. Smiths address in full Is: JOHN A SMITH, S04 Germa- mia Building.
