BOX FROM KOREA.
Solomon Missionaries Send Home
Curious Foreign Goods.

SOLOMON, June ll.-Rev. and Mrs.
W. N. Blair have sent home from
Korea where they are as missionaries,
q bundle Of extremely interesting
Korean merchandise, consisting Of q
Korean purse and coin, sun glasses Of
unknown material, a wooden comb,
chlld's sandals Of fiber and rushes,
chop sticks, opium pipe, embroidery
work, and Korean picture. An in.
spection Of this shipment Of articles
Of Korean manufacture coming direct
from q strange land and the people,
brings very wildly to the thought
what queer folks these Oriental beings
are, whose fantastic ideas and con-
ceptions produce such extraordinary
and unique articles Of all kinds.

CUBAN RECIPROCITY.
Mr.. Thurber's Statement Causes Z
Sensation In the Senate.
Two REPUBLICAN CaUCUSES CALLED.
Opinions vary IA to the Effect Of the
Testimony Of Mr. Thurber Before tie
Committss-Senat Aidrich Conf
dent About Passing . Bill.

Washington, June 12.-The testl-
mony given yesterday before the
committee on Cuban relations by
F. B. Thurber, showing that between
$4,000 and $4,000 had been paid out
of the Cuban treasury Under the di-
rection Of Gov. Gen. Wood for the
promotion Of the effort to secure
reciprocity between the United
States and Cuba, caused sensation
in the senate yesterday. Opinions as
to the ultimate effect of the testi-
mony are as varied as the predilec-
tions of the senate, but the imme-
date results are seen in the decision
reached during the afternoon to have
two caucuses in the early future. The
first Of these will be held by the
beet sugar republican senators to-
day and the second by all the repub-
lican senators Friday or Saturday.
Senator Burrows is responsible for
the statement that the beet sugar
men will meet, and Senator Aldrich
for the announcement that there will
be a general conference before the
close Of the week. The purpose Of
the meeting Of the beet sugar men
Is to consider the situation as affect
ed by yesterdays developments, and
also to receive report from the
committee, consisting of Senators
Elkins, Burrows and Jones, Of Ne
yada, appointed to confer with the
republican members Of the Cuban
committee. This committee will state
that the Cuban committee has de-
clined to consider all the propositions
looking to compromise which have
been made, and it probably will ask
to be discharged. The propositions
that have been made are two-frst
for a rebate, and second for COM
mercial treaty with Cuba.
The committee will say that both
plans were rejected, and that the
members OF the Cuban committee
would not change their position that
there must be q straight reduction
Of 20 per cent. without any condi-
tons, except that the president
might have power to revoke the con-
cession in case he found that the
Cuban planters were not getting the
benefit of II. The full conference will
be in the nature OF a caucus, and
some of the beet sugar men say they
will enter it only with the under
standing that they shall not be
bound BY BY any conclusion q that may
be reached.
Senator Aldrich expresses conf
dence in being able to secure fully
As republican votes in favor OF any
bill that may be reported by the Gu
ban committee. This is "a majority
of the senate, and the friends of re-
duction express themselves as hope
full of passing bill satisfactory to
them. They say the testimony of
Mr.. Thurbur does not affect the mer-
its Of the question in the least, and
they contend that, even admitting
that the course of the Cuban govern
ment was censurable, 1t cannot and
should not prevent the government
of the United States doing what it
has promised to do, and what it has
a right to do. They do not, however,
generally admit that the course was
improper.

A mother speaks of her experience In
feeding children. She says, About two
years ago our little two-year- r-old Isa-
bella was taken with stomach and bowel
trouble. She was so low at times that
we despalred of her ever recovering.
She could not digest the lightest kind
OF food She fingered along from Au-
gust TO November in that condition when
decided to try GrapeNuts in small
quantities three times day. / poured
boiling water over them and let them
stand five minutes to soften. then added
sweet cream and very little sugar
Well, from that day. the 18th OF Nov,
1898, until now we have never had to
yive her a drop of medicine and she is
the picture Of health. So also is my
little boy. now two years old He has
lived on Grape Nuts since he was a year
old and is the stoutest little fellow you
nearly ever saw.
Nearly everyone asks what ! feed the
children, for they are so big and healthy
Our twelve-year- daughter began
TO have headaches about last Christmas
and we put glasses on her. She got some
better but was still very poorly. Finally
I took away most OF her food and put
her on Grape Nuts. She steadily i'm
proved and is now able TO go to
school regularly and is quite well :"
