I'LL Stuffed Up

That's the condition of many sufferers
from catarrh, especially in the morning.
Great difficulty is experienced in clear
ing the head and throat.
No wonder catarrh causes headache,
impairs the taste, smell and hearing,
pollutes the breath, deranges the stom-
ach and affects the appetite.
To cure catarrh, treatment must be
constitutional-alter and tonic.
Il was afflicted with catarrh. l took
medicines of different kinds, giving each
a fair trial; but gradually grew worse until

merly occupied by the executive office Of
the President, the same kind of girders
have been put in.
The new east room will not be bare OF
mirrors. There will be beautiful mirrors
on the four sides of the room hereto
fore. Two doors will open upon the green
room instead of one as formerly. The new
ceiling of the east room will be of orna-
mented stucco, with beautiful paintings.
Paintings will also be placed on the walls
over the doors. The walls will be finished
almost entirely in wood, and this finishing
will be set off by beautiful Corinthian COL
umns. 1t is declared that the room will be
one of the handsomest in the world when
the finishing touches have been put upon IL
by the contractors.
Orders have been given by the contra ctors
to rush the work on the private apartments
of the White House so that the living rooms
may be ready for the Roosevelt family on
their return to Washington this fall, prob
ably about the 1st of October.
The enlarged state dining room is begin
ming to show something of how II will look
when completed. The room will include not
only all the former space, but the width of
the old main staircase, down which Presi-
dents and their wives have descended in
formal manner with fashionable followers
to open the big winter receptions.
The temporary White House on Jackson
place would be insufficient for the Roose-
welt family should they have to occupy II
this fall and so the work on the living
apartments at the White House will be
steadily pushed from now on. A night force
of over thirty men was engaged last night
in work throughout the building.

MICROBES IN LETTUCE.
Fine Collection of Germs Found in Or
dinary Salad by an Investigator.

FROM the New YORK Sun.
There is really such a thing as getting
too much for ones money, as, for instance,
when one buys lettuce at cents a bunch
and has menagerie and a flower garden
thrown In. Even the casual consumer Of
salads occasionally has a temporary loss OF
appetite from the discovery Of a large white
scale or small green worm among the crisp
crinkles of his lettuce. But these discover
les are only faint suggestion of the gories
OF animal life which lurk undetected in
those same inviting leaves. A man by the
name Of Ceresole, having found more than
the usual number of insects pasturing upon
place and bought samples Of lettuce, endiye
radishes, celery and the like.
The willy Ceresole washed his marketing
in sterilized water and examined the sedl-
ment. A simple microscopical survey re-
vealed a luxuriant, If not pleasing fauna
of ffty-two species. comprising amoebae
and anguillulae along with the eggs Of the
Toenia Ozyuris aXarides and Ankylostoma.
Not content with these pleasing revelations,
the curious Ceresole undertook a bacterio-
logical investigation and added to his previ-
GUS discoveries a rich menagerie of mi
crobes, including mcrococci, staphylococci,
streptococci, sarcinae. There were others;
but why enlarge upon the matter? Enough
is enough. When ii is a question Of cents
worth of salad. the throwing in Of a whole
bear garden Of microbes would seem to be
too much And the moral of this is you
can't be too careful about washing your
salads.

The Lister Family.

From the Mexican Herald.
The number Of those bearing the name OF
Lister who have been eminent in medical
science is remarkable. Edward Lister, ed
ucated at Eton and Cambridge, was a ply
sician to Elizabeth and James 1, and his
younger brother, Sir Mathew, filed the
same Office to Anne of Denmark. James I
and Charles 1. Martin Lister son of Sir
Martin and a nephew of Sir Mathew, was
a famous zoologist and second physician to
Queen Anne Lord Lister is now seventy
five. His wife was n daughter Of the late
Prof Syme OF Edinburgh, a surgeon of the
first eminence. She died few years ago.
But for Lord Listers great discovery in

operation on King Edward could not possi-
bly, have been attempted. Lord Lister has

THE NEW EAST ROOM.
Process Of Reconstruction Will Soon
Begin

Begin.
During the past few days an immense
amount of scaffolding has been erected in
the east room of the White House and
from this the workmsn employed by the
contractors will begin the processes of re-
constructing that historic room. When the
scaffolding was put in the room the walls
were broken and SCARED in all directions,
and in four different places were the gap
ing f1ues Of as many chimneys. The floors
had been torn out and replaced by piles OF
timber here and there, while overhead there
was practically nothing but the bare frame
work of the new ceiling that Is to be put
in. The room would not have been recog-
nized by those familiar with its features in
the years that have gone.
To describe from the drawings that are
in the hands of the contractors just how
the room will look when reconstructed is
almost impossible. It may he said. how
ever, that in the future more people will be
able to stand on the floor of the room than
ever before. For many years there has
been fear that during the Presidents win
ter receptions the flooring of the east room
would give way beneath the weight Of the
thousands of people congregating there
while the receptions were in progress. This
danger has been entirely done away with
by the placing of giant iron girders across
the room, upon which the flooring will be
constructed. Under the floors above, for

Francis Snipe colOred, well known

when he entered the store Of \. Calri,
an Italian, at the corner Of King

condition, went into Calvi'S establish

and when refused he drew his pistol
on the Italian, but before he could IRE
Calyi had his own revolver down from
a shelf and as quick as flash fired
one shot at the desperado. Snipe
fell to the floor, his heart being pierre
ed by the bullet. The shooting at
tracted a large crowd of negroes who
made many threats, but they did not
attempt to carry them out as two po-
lice officers stood on guard at the
store door, holding them at bay until
Lieut.. McManus and squad OF officers
arrived from the police station. Upon
their arrival the street was quickly
cleared of the crowd. Calvi was placed

Too Warm for Negroes.

Later reports from Augusta Sunday
says: Though the community is quiet
now, and no evidence is left Of last
nights trouble, all through the day
there was general intimidation OF
negroes by whites in the vicinity OF
Langley whenever they were seen in
crowds of three or more. Passengers
coming in on the o'clock train this
morning say four negroes started to
board the train at Bath and were
made to take to the woods by two
white men with pistols. The negroes,
however, had no connection with the
affair last night at Langley. The
bodies of the two negroes lynched at
the little calaboose were taken charge
of by Aiken county authorities. 1t
was reported shortly after daylight
that three other negroes were captur-
ed at Graniteville. This started
crowd from Langley over there deter
mined to mete out the same fate to
them as the others, but the report
proyed untrue. 1t is believed they
came in the direction ofAugusta, and
the local police force was specially in
str1cted TO watch for them.

A Romantic Marriage.

The Spartanbdrg Journal says a
romantic marriage took place at .
o'clock Wednesday afternoon at the
residence of the brides parents near
Cedar Springs, when Geo. a. Brooks,
a teacher in the school for the deaf at
Austin, Texas, welded Miss Nettie
Rogers. Both bride and groom are
totally deaf. Rev. Lewis NJ. Roper
performed the ceremony, with Superin-
tendent y. +. Walker of Cedar Springs
as interpreter. The couple will go to
Savannah for their honeymoon. Miss
Rogers is considered one of the bright
esJ pupils who has ever received train
ing at Cedar Springs. After gradua-
tion there. she went in the fall OF 1894
to Gallaudet College, Washington, D.
C. There she first met the groom,
who had graduated from the Texas
school where he is now teaching, and
entered Gallaudet at the same time
with her. Together they graduated
from the latter institution in June,
1899, and just three years later, he has
returned here to claim Eer as his bride.

detective. Madden is an elderly man
and is well connected. He had $500

It is stated that detectives searched
Madden's house and found articles that
had come from his store. Madden

plain this.
