CHIcEMAuGUA PARK HEALTHY
BOynton Denies the reports
~Impugning the Healthfulness of
the Park.

Washington, December 22.-In ms
annual report to the secretary of war.
enc II. ". Boyntor. chairman OF
the Chickamauga and Chattanooga
National Military Park commission.
takes occasion to finally and officially
dispose of the reports which have
found currency from time to time. i'm
pugning the h~ealthfulness of the PARK.
He says:
I'm view of the sensational reports
charging that the park is al unheaitl-
full tract, it is proper to say that during
the past year it has been free from
serious disease and has fully main
tanned it's long record before tie
war with Spain, n for the period sub
sequent to that time, for exceptional
healthfulness."
The commission asks an apprOprla-
ton of $40, coo for the coming year,
stating that hereafter there will be lao
further necessity for appropriations
for the work of establishing the park
beyond those required for it's main
tenance and this will not exceed thirty
thousand dollars per annum.
The commission constructed a great
many roads during the year along
some of the most interesting lines in
the battlefield. 1t has twenty gun car
r1ages ready to place, which will make
sixteen confederate battery positions
marked on Missionary Ridge and a O.
tai of 27O guns. The state of Ohio has
appropriated $685. 600 for the state moo
ument and twenty regimental and BAT
terry monuments ON Chattanooga fiail,
n $50. 600 for a monument on Mis-
SiOnary Ridge and for bronze tablets.
Maryland has appropriated $1,000 for a
regimental and battery monument On
Orchard Knob.
The commission points to the 1acI
that the park is rapidly becoming u
practical use to the government, han
ing served as the camping ground Of
the Seventh cavalry and the Third
battery last year, affording one of the
most perfect field camps in the coUn-
try.

Letter to John fl. Handy, of Will
mfnStOn.

Dear Sir: The cost of labor in paint
ing a house is three times the # Of
the paint. You seem to save a little
when o buy a, lower priced paint but
o certainly add to the cost of r~'~r
when you pay for spreading more gal
Ions.
You ont eve save on the paint.
Devoe Lead and Zinc costs a little more
than mixed paints, but it takes fewer
gallons, and the cost is actually less.
Wears longer, too-longer than mixed
paints, longer than lead and oil.
You Jon save a cent.
Mr.. c. Loeb, a painter in Magnolia,
Miss, writes:
After wears of experiments with mix
ed paints, l find that your paint covers
more surface to the gallon han Any j
have ever used. For density and wear
inc qualities it cannot be eXcelled.
Compared with lead and oil: A house
belonging to the late President Of the
Croton River Bank, at Brewsters. N. Y.
(cost S31. 000) was painted with le"@ "-1
oil in "a at a cos of si00. In 'S7-threa
years-it was reprinted with Devoe at
a cost of $3.50. In 81 the house was still
all right.
Results: lead and oil-cost $500, wear
three years; Devoe-cost $3.50, wear ~
years. You truly,

that the suggestion will be adopted.

ALL OF FRANCE STIRRED
People Awaiting the Return of the

Paris, December 22.-The extradition
proceedings against the Humbert fam
lily, who were arrested in Madrid Sat
urday, are being rapidly pushed. The
public awaits ~anxiously the return 10
Paris of the f%ugitives. Not since
France was shaken by the Dreyfus nj

in this case.
For the moment the Venezuelan
trouble has become Unsecured and The
French newspapers are devoting thai"
energies to elaborate presentations of
the celebrated ase Some papers as
sc-t hat the arrest of the Humba"tS
is only n prelude to ever more sensa-
tional developments which involve r.--
sonages in the foremost rank of poiiti-
cal. judicia! and social affairs.
The indications are that the Dreyfus
matter will be against dragged before
the prtlic and that there Will be a rc-
newal OF the animosities Of the anti
semitic discussion Deputy Gauthier
has taken the initiative in asserting
that the relatives of Dreyfus are
among the heaviest creditors of the
Humberts, and that this alleged fact
exercised an important influence in the

Plans have been formulated for the
return of the Humbarts party to Paris,
and a number of the best men in the
department have beer detailed to con-
duct the prisoners across the frontier.
The utmost p~recaution will be taken
TO prevent their escape and guard
against the possibility OF any of them
committing suicide. A preliminary
motion was made this afternoon on
behalf of Nine. Humbert's daughter
asking for her provisional release and
conmittal to the custody of her grand
mother. but this motion was refused
by the court.
