old Joe. the Nieht Waterman.

,From the Pail Mall Gazette, London.)
How often on returning home late on
a dreary winters night has our sympathy
gone out to the poor old night Waterman
as he sat huddled up over his cage fire,
overlooking the excavations which our
| City Council In their wisdom, or other
wise, allow the different water companies
to make 80 frequently in our congeded
streets. In all w~eatbers, and under all
climatic conditions, the poor old night
Waterman is obliged TO keep watch over
the companies property, and 10 see that
the red lights are kept burning. What a
life, to he sure: what privations and hard
ships; no wonder they have aches aud
pains, which nothing but st. Jacobs Oil
can alleviate.
"Old Joe" is In the employ Of the Lam
beth Water Works. He has been a night
Waterman for many years, in the course
OF which he has undergone many expert
ences. What with wet and cold, he con-
tracted rheumatism and s%ciatica, which
fairly doubled him up, and it began 10
look q serious matter for old Joe; 1t look
ed extremely doubtful II he would much
longer be able to perform his duties, on
which his good wife and himself depend
ed for a livelihood; but as il happened a
passer-by, who had for some nights mo-
ticed Old Joe's painful condition, present
cd him with a bottle OF st. Jacobs OH,
and told him TO use IL. Old Joe followed
the advice given; he crawled home the
next morning and bade his wife rub his
aching back with tho 81. Jacobs Oil "a
gentleman gave him." and undoubtedly
his wife did rub, for when Old Joe went
on duty at night he met his friend and
benefactor, 10 whom he remarked:
Them Oils you gave me, Guy'nor. did
give me n doing, they was like pins and
needles for a time, but look AT me now"
and Old Joe began to run and jump like
a young colt. All pain, stiffness and
soreness had gone, he had been telling
everybody he met what ST. Jacobs On
had done for him. Old Joe says now he
has but one ambition in life, and that Is
to always TO be able to keep a bottle OF
st. Jacobs Oil by him, for he says there
is nothing like il in the world.
st. Jacobs Oil serves the rich and the
poor, high and low. the same way. II
has conquered pain for fifty years, and II
will do the same 10 the cpd Of time. Sim
pie facts like the above tell an honest tale
with which nothing on earth can com

MAY eE DISCIPLINED.
Miles Statement Msy Gst Him Into
Trouble.


Washington, March 22:-The news OF
General Miles statments before the
military committee OF the senate ex-
cited great interest at the war depart
ment when 1t became known there late
in the day. There was a very general
inquiry as to whether, by passing the
criticisms upon various officers, as
reported in the press, General Miles
had not exposed himself to disciplin-
airy treatment. =.
The answer to this must be based on
the exact amount Of privilege which
attaches to testimony given before a
committee of congress. The question
arose last week in the course of Gen
eral Hughes testimony before the sem
ate Philippine committee, when the
general sought to escape answering
questions which would involve criti-
cism by him of his superior officer,
General Otis. 1t appeared thu there
was a variance OF opinion in the COM
mittee itself as to how far General
| Hughes was at liberty to violate army
rules and properties, even in answer to
committee questions, n h question
itself was left unsettled.
While General Miles did not expect
when he gave his testimony that il
would be made public In any form
he is now willing that 1t shall be pub
lished by the committee, making him
self the broad statement hat the
statements which were given to the
press as those made by himself before
the committee were Misrepresentation
and totally unwarranted.
The omission by the president OF hi:
usual ride yesterday afternoon, and Tho
fact that he and Secretary Roo were
In conference for nearly four hours
led to the supposition that they were
discussing General Miles testimony
This, however, was an con
clusion, for they were talking about al

RETALIATION
Uncle Sam Is to Play Even With
Germany.

Washington, March 22.-The depart
ment of agriculture will Immediately
prepare q list OF articles imported into
this country In which boracic acid
and other acids are supposed TO exist.
This action Is the first step taken by
the government looking to retaliation
for the German prohibition on the i'm
p~ortation Of meats containing boracic
acid.
Secretary Wilson, in oral directions
given yesterday afternoon, called on
DR.. Wiley. the chemist of the depart
ment, to prepare such a list at once.
with a view TO barring out all such
products, through the cooperation or
the state department. The directions
as given did not specifically refer TO
any one country. Secretary Wilson
said:
"Boracic acid applications have not
| been held by chemists generally TO be
Injurious, but If the European govern
ments declare them TO be injurious
and bar importations containing such
applications this government will have
TO follow with similar action. An eX-
animation will be made into those Inn
%portations in which boracic acid is
known or believed to exist, and where
it Is found such importations VIII be
excluded"
Boracic acid is used almost exclu-
siVely in butter and preserved meat
importations, according to the depart
ment OF agriculture. Toe directions
contemplate instructing United states
consuls, wherever articles suspected or
containing boraCic acid ere offered for
sale. to refuse the usual invoices Tor
such products. The procedure TO he
followed is the issuance ot regulations
by the treasury department, at the re-
quest of the secretary of agriculture,
| .l,,,l,r Tho nApaECitV for such action.
and the transmission OF them to con-
sular officers through The state depart
ment. The department Of agriculture
shortly will issue a report which VIII
! give analyses and conclusions OF inVes-
LEGATIONS regarding authorizations found
in products imported into this
II shows that artificial coioring matter
and personalities and ingredients have
been found to be added to foods
brought into this country; In sausages,
for instance.
Berlin, March 22.-Referring to the
dispatch received from Washington In
which 1t was said that meat packers
in the United States had petitioned the
state department to protest against
the exclusion by Germany Of meats
prepared with boracic acid, the Nossi-
sche Zeitung remarks that the German
government knew What It was doing
when II forbade the Introduction OF
meat thus prepared, and that hence any
protest from Washington would be
without effect.
Chicago, March 2t.-Chicago meat
packers have adopted new tactics in
dealing with Germany n her rules
as to the importation OF American
meats, and viii ignore the German
market completely. This attitude is due
to the nnounceme that after Octo-
Der / no meat preserved with boracic
acid and borax will be admitted TO the
k~aiser's country under any considera-
ton.
The leading packers say that the
meat trade with Germany is not con-
siderable, and that the greater part of
the American trade with Germany In
the packers line is confined to lard.

unaware of the testimony until he re-
turned to the war department late In
the afternoon.
Secretary Root exhibited very little
feeling when his attention was called
to the proceedings before the commit
tee. He remarked quietly that he was
very sorry Lieutenant General Miles
opposed this bill.
He pointed out that inder section z,
Of which General Miles complained, the
lieutenant general would have greatly
enlarged powers in army management,
instead of being restricted to his func-
lions, as he supposed.
AS to the question whether General
Miles had said anything which would
require action at the hands of the de-
partment or the president. the secre-
tary firmly declined TO express an opin-
ion, for the present at east, preferring
to await an official cop of the COM
mittee hearing before reaching any de-
cisiOn.
