Washington, Jan. 10. = The senate
committee on commerce has author
lied Senator Frye, it's chairman, to
make favorable report on his ship
subsidy bill. Senator Frye's report.
accompanying the bill. places the cost
of mail subsidy at $4,7OO,OOO. He says
the receipts from ocean mail postage
will provide $3.OOO.OOO of this amount,
leaving deficit under the system pro-
posed of nearly $2,0OO,0OO.
Based on actual navigation of Amer
lean vessels in foreign trade in 1900.
the subsidies proposed would amount
to $1O72.OOO. The bounties on deep
sea fisheries are estimated at $4,000.
The Democratic members Of the
committee voted against reporting the
bill They also voted sOlidly for a mo
ton offered by Senator Mallory to
strike out the general subsidy provi-
sion Of the bill. The committee made
several amendments to the bill. The
most important were:
Allowing mail carrying vessels un-
der the bill to be either iron or steel
instead of steel only, as originally pro-
vided, and another reducing to 1000
gross registered tons the vessels re-
ceiving a bounty under the bill.
The advantages of government con-
troll Of the projected Pacific cable were
presented during the day before the
commerce committee Of the house. Ad
miral Bradford, who has had charge
of the cable soundings; General Gree
ley, head of the signal service, who
has devoted much attention to this
subject; Captain Russell. who has done
much of the cable work in the Philip
pines, and Thomas r. Clark. vice pres
ident of the Western Union Telegraph
company. were among those present.
General Greeley stated that about
10000 miles of cable and telegraph
We're now under government charge.
He was strongly favorable to govern
ment control of the Pacific project and
showed the extent to which govern
ments were extending their control Of
cables. One of the recent extensions
was by Germany on the China coast
while France and other countries were
making similar cable extensions. Gen.
eral Greeley said an American cable
to the Philippines would do much good
in Americanizing the islands.

HALF OUR ILLS
ARE CATARRHAL
IN NATURE.
Catarrhal Diseases are Most
Prevalent in Winter.
is THERE NO WAY OF
ESCAPE FROM THEM?
Pe-ru-na Never Fails to Cure
Catarrh Wherever
Located.

There are some things which are as
sure as fate, and can be relied on to occur
to at least one-half of the human family
unless means are taken to prevent.
First, the climate Of winter is sure to
bring colds.
Second, colds not promptly cured are
sure to cause catarrh.
Third, catarrh improperly treated is
sure to make life short and miserable.
Catarrh spares no organ or function of
the body. 1t is capable of destroying
sight, taste, smell, hearing, digestion,
secretion, assimilation and excretion.
1t pervades every part Of the human
body, head, throat, stomach, bowels,
bronchial tubes, lungs, liver, kidneys,
bladder and other pelvic organs.
That Peruna cures catarrh wherever
located is attested by the following tes-
timonials sent entirely unsolicited to
DR.. Hartman by grateful men and wo-
men who have been cured by Peruna:
Catarrh Of Tho Head.
Mr.. D. r. Ramsey writes in q recent
letter from Pine Bluff, Ark, the fol-
lowing:
"My son, Leon Ramsey, four years Of
age, suffered with catarrh Of the head
for eighteen or twenty months. He took
one bottle Of your Peruna and could
hear as good as ever."-D. r. RAMSEY.
Catarrh Of The Nose.
Mr.. Herman Ehlke, 952 Orchard street,
Milwaukee, Wis.,, writes:

the nose by your Peruna. My case was
. severe one."-Herman Ehlke.

The Good Templars on Resubmission.

At the semi-annual session of the
Grand Lodge of Good Templars of
Maine, this report was adopted:
Our Good Templars have favored
prohibition as an Order for half cen
tury. Everywhere we have battled
with the same forces which are now
lined up against us on this question
The saloon keeper the inveterate rum
drinker the machine ward politician,
the wholesaler of Intoxicating liquors,
make up whole army of the forces in
favor OF resubmiSsion. 1t is indeed a
matter of regret to us that here and
there among them are gentlemen who
have sometimes worthily acquitted
themselves in the temperance field,
but as an Order we are thoroughly for
prohibition and the enforcement of the
same, and deem it unWiSe to reSubmit
our prohlbitory laws to the people, for
it seems to us that our time can be
used to better advantage, in demanding
the election two years hence, of honest
officials pledged to enfore this as other
laws.
AS has been said by very distin-
guished citizen of Maine, 'If resubmis-
sion should result in vote sustaining
majority, would it make the law more
or less useful?" We answer, No.
Neither would it make the politicians
more ready to enforce the law. Why
then spend the time talking resubmis-
sion? 1t is nonsense and we want none
of it in this commonwealth.
The people of Maine, as well as all
Good Templars, will stand by the rock
ribbed principles of prohibition and the
politicians of the State can make up
their minds to that effect. If the ques-
ton shall come we will meet the issue
squarely; but we shall lot foolishly
come out from the constitutional en-
trenchments which now protect us, to
do battle, and if the politicians of
Maine force us to needless trouble and
expense in this line, some of them at
least shall hear of it in the future.

a Veteran, Too.

He stood before the village store
Unkempt and weary-eyed,
His shabby harness here and there
With bits of rope was tied;
His knees We're stiff, his coat was long,
A sorry sight indeed,
The butt OF many an idler'S jest
The farmers old gray steed.
Across the hot and dusty square
And up the narrow street
Arose burst of rolling drums
And bugles loud and sweet.
He turned bis head and pricked his ears
And shook his tangled name,
AS memory with its magic Swelled
His withered veins again.
With every well-remembered note
A vision on him grew
OF trumpets with their crimson cords,
And lines of men in blue
lie seemed tC see from far and near
Ihe marching squadrons come,
And flung his broken harness off
To curvet to the drum.
For first upon battlefield
He heard the bugleS blow,
attention in the dreary dawn
And "Charge' upon the foe.
The soldier-heart was in him yet,
Though he was blind and lame,
And many whip had left its scar
Upon his gallant frame.
So every hand to every cap
Went up in grave salute
AS all the veterans passed him by
With flag and fife and flute;
And some were seen to drop tear
Those bearded men in blue
A tribute to the old gray horse
Who was a veteran, too.
