HE IS ASWINDLER
Patent Right Faker Operating In
This Section

The police of this city have re-
ceived letters from an Eastern de-
tective agency notifying them to
be on the loo1 out for a pair of
patent right swindlers who are
now operating in this section of
the country. The swindlers repre-
sent themselves to be man and wife
and their manner of operation is
as follows:
They stop intowa WI ere they
have spotted intended victims, Sc
cure a vacant room and then pro-
coed to exhibit their model which
on first investigation appears to be
q most wonderful contriyance.
The machine is in the form of a
"spring motor" and is represented
Cor the purpose of pumping water
and running light machinery.
The machine runs by concealed
spring and will only run about
five minutes at a time. The
farmers are notified to be on the
look out for the clever swindler.

London papers are commenting
on the outlandish headgear freak
ish jewelry which are now beirg
affected by women there. One
writer eays that "thc monstrosities
now seen on the heads of young
girls and even middle-aged women
who ought to know better, are a
disgrace to any civilized country.
The headgear OF savages is artistic
by comparison. Feathers, flowers
furs aud lace, all jumbled into one
shapeless and bewildering mass,
sometimes the size of bush ell
barket, are stuck on the head and
turned up at the side 80 as to
make the wearer appear veritable
scarecrow. Occasionally the mas
slve topping is tilted forward, pro-
jecting far over the face, hiding
all but the chin. This is the
spectacle seen on the streets and
in the churches and theaters at
the present time. Some of the
gowns worn deserve almost as
severe criticism

UNAVOIDABLE.

1t is now reported that Presi-
dent Roosevelt will finally decide
against Schley in the controversy
90 to who gained the victory in tho
battle of Santiago over the Spanish
navy. If he holds that Sampson,
although not present at the battle,
Iis entitled to the honor of thatgreat
victory because he is the ranking
officer, why not take another step
and claim it for himself, as he is
the commander in chief Of the ar
my and navy of the United States
ard ranks both Sampson and
Schley. 1t is true that Roosevelt
was not present at the battle, but
neither was Sampson, and Schley
was, aud if the honor of victory
belongs to the ranking officer then
Roosevelt stands head, and if he
turns down Schley and elevates
Sampson he will make the mistake
of his life. The people Of this
country, without regard to creed
or party, have decided the ques-
ton and crowned Schley with the
wreath of victory and unfading
glory beyond the reach of parti-
san hate or personal prejudice,
and all the red tape in America
cannot change the verdict.
It is not to rob Sampson of a
single honor; he is entitled to all
that long life of service to his
country entitle him, but is not ne
cessary to "rob Peter to pay
Paul." nor is it necessary to rob
Schley TO pay Sampson. As
Schley said after the Santiago vic
tory: "There is honor enough for
us ALL" 1t is to be hoped Presi-
dent Roosevelt will not outrage
the calm judgement of the Ameri-
can people by trying to snatch the
wreath of victory from the brow of
Schley to deck that of any other
man, be he even Sampson.

Distress and sickness became
80 general that the Turkish gov

to sanction the purchase of iron

his famous song, speaks of this

"My beloved" he says, sis like q

1t is deep.down subterranean
spring, which has from the time
oe Solomon flowed through the
arched tunnel or reservoir near
the northwest corner of the high

Half century ago the location
of this hidden" spring, which
was still, as in Solomon's time,
flowing into the reservoir men,

is rooted by stones, leaning against
each other like an inverted v, the
primitive form Of the arch, which
is also seen in the roof of the
Queen Chamber of the Great

tunnel from the spring is one of
the oldest structures in existence.
The spring is to he laid along the
old aqueduct which formerly,
from the time ofSolomon, brought
this same water to the temple

Something That Will Do You

We know of no way in which we can
be of more service to our readers than
to tell them of something that will be
of real good to them. For this reason
we want to acquaint them with what
we consider one of the very best reme-
dies on the market for coughs, colds,
and that alarming complaint, Group.
We refer to Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. We have used it with such
good results in our family so long that
it has become household necessity.
by its prompt use we haven't any
doubt but that it has time and again
prevented Group. The testimony is
given upon our own experience, and
we suggest that our readers. especially
those who have small children, always
keep it in their homes as safeguard
