A Good Thing.

German Syrup is the special prescrip-
ton of DIR. A. Boschee, a celebrated
German Physician, and is acknowl-
edged to be one of the most fortunate
discoveries in Medicine. 1t quickly
Cures Coughs, Colds and all Lung trou-
bles of the severest nature, removing,
as it does, the cause of the affection
and leaving the parts in a strong and
healthy condition. 1t is not an expert
mental medicine, but has stood the test
of years, giving satisfaction in every
case, which it's rapidly increasing sale
every season confirms. Two million
bottles sold annually. Boschee's Ger
man Syrup was introduced in the Unit
ed States in 1868, and is now sold in
every town and village in the civilized
world. Three doses will relieve any

Making Money In Prison.

A remarkable example of cunning has
been unearthed in one of u large
prisons. A convict had perfected a die
and was making silver dollars, and
distributing them through accomplices
on the outside. Naturally the officials
were very much surprised at the dis
but no more so tina the per-
son who received a counterfeit article
in place of the genuine. 1t is there
fore very important when you ask for
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters to see that
Private Die Stamp over the neck
is unbroken, if you value your health.
For fifty years the Bitters has been
recognized as the best health maker
in existence, and if you are a sufferer
from indigestion, dyspepsia, constipa-
ton, flatulency or nervousness, 1t is
because you have never tried it. Try
it once.

Statistics of drink are quoted as
showing that the United tates drinks
less per capita than any OF the other
great countries. This is gratifying, but
as the statistics indicate that the an
nual average consumption for each
male over Is years of age is something
like seventy gallons, and as there are
many males who do not drink at all,
the inference is strong that there are
many others who are getting more
thar they ought to have.

WORLDS FAIR BUILDINGS.


st. Louis, Jan. IA general revi-
sion of the names OF the exhibit
buildings which form the main pic
ture q the Louisiana Purchase expo
sition has been decided on. The
names used for the big buildings up
to the present are merely tentative
They are works of Identification for
the architects rather than allotments
of space to exhibit departments.
The addition to the worlds fair site
of the grounds and buildings of Wash
ington university caused further re-
vision of plans so as to remove the
education building and the social
economy building out of the main
picture OF the exposition to the
grounds of the university. The pres
ent plan is to place the education and
social economy building to one side
and the forestry and fisheries build
ing TO the other side of the main
avenue leading up to the admins
tration building of the university.
Director of Works Taylor an
nounces that he will be ready next
week to advertise for bids on the
mines and metallurgy building.

sages from the Throne-A Hope Ex-
pressed That the Sugar B0unties
Would BE Abandoned.

London, Jan. liking Edward
opened parliament yesterday with a
ceremonial in all essential respects
similar to that Of February last. Aft
er robing, King Edward and Queen
Alexandra entered the house OF peers
and occupied their thrones, beneath
a canopy, with the prince and princess
of Wales on either side of them. The
other members Of the royal family
were seated on chairs at the foot of
the steps leading to the throne. His
majesty read the speech from the
throne. In his speech his majesty re-
ferred in terms OF qualification to the
world tour Of the prince and princess
Of Wales, expressed regret at the
fact that the war in South Africa
was not concluded, said he trusted
the decision OF the sugar conference
would lead to the abandonment OF
bounties and noted the conclusion OF
the isthmian canal treaty.
Contrary to expectations, the kings
reference to the war was just as in
definite as the statements on the
subject made in the last half-dozen
messages from the throne. u re-
greet" said his majesty, that the war
in South Africa is not yet concluded,
though the course OF the operations
has been favorable to our arms, the
area of war largely reduced, and in
dustries are being resumed in my
new colonies. In spite Of the tedious
character Of the campaign my SOL

chccrfulness in the endurance OF the

own detriment, in their treatment OF
the enemy, which are deserving OF tho
highest praise. The necessity for re-
lieving those of my troops who have

SHIP SUBSIDY BILL.
Senate Commerce Committee An.
thorizes a Favorable Report.
DEMOCRATS AGAINST REPORTING IT.
Several Amendments Made BY the Commit
tee to the Measure-Senator fryss Re
port Read, Setting Out the Pur-
pose Of the Bill,

Washington, Jan. 1S.-The senate
committee on commerce yesterday
authorized favorable report ON
Senator Frye's ship subsidy bill. The
report will be made by Senator Frye.
The democratic members Of the COM
mittee voted against reporting the
bill. They also voted solidly for
motion offered by Senator Mallory
to strike out the general subsidy pro-
vision of the bill. The committee
made several amendments to the bill.
The most important was: Allowing
mail-carrying vessels under the bill
to be either iron or steel, instead of
steel only, as originally provided,
and another reducing to 1000 gross
registered tons the vessels receiving
bounty under the bill.
The report prepared by Senator
Frye was read to the committee. 1t
says that the purpose OF the bill is
to establish the maritime supremacy
of the United States in trade with
Asia and in the Gulf of Mexico and
the Caribbean; to establish thorough
ly trade between the United States
and South American republics and to
give the United States a respectable
representation on the north Atlantic.
The claim is made that all these re-
suits will be accomplished within ten
years. The report also asserts that
The bill will so extend shipbuilding
as to transfer in time from abroad
to the United States the center of
that industry, as the centers of other
industries recently have been trans
ferred and also that it will give to
the United States measure OF mari
time independence corresponding to
our industrial and agricultural inde-
pendence.

A pUGILISTlC FAKE.
The Contest between Sharkey and Mahsr
Works Up the Audience to Pitch
to acct Even"

Philadelphia, Jan. 1S.-Tom Shar-
key and Peter Maher, who were her.
aided to fight six rounds before the
Industrial Athletic club for the cham
pionship Of Ireland at the Industrial
hall last night, were stopped by
Referee Recap in the middle OF the
third round Of one of the poorest ex-
.hibitions ever given in this city. The
men had been arrested early in the
evening and bound over in $4,000 bail
to keep the peace and this dampened
their vigor and reduced the steam OF
their blows. There was not a blow
struck which would have rocked a
bantam's head. When the bout had
progressed for 2h rounds amid inces-
SAINT catcalls, Kisses and yells OF
"Take them off, and "Fake!"
Referee Recap stepped to the side OF
the ring and said that he had been
engaged to referee contest This
is no contest" and the men took their
corners and the contest was over.
Both Sharkey and the president OF
the club attempted TO address the
angry crowd, but neither was per-
mitted to speak. The spectators
were worked up to such a pitch that
they broke chairs and benches in
their desire to get even.' 1t was
little satisfaction for the 1000 per-
sons who had paid 81, 50 and $5 Tor
seats.
