COLONIAL FREE TRADE.
The Subject Has Much Interest i
EnoIard.

England.
| London, Nov 4.-Of deep interest to
| the United States is resolution on the
subject of PREFERENTIAL trade, contained
in the blue book on the colonial confer
ence. which has just been issued.
In the resolution the conference rec
ognizes that preferential trade between
the United Kingdom and the colonies
would stimulate and facilitate COM
merce and strengthen the empire; that
in the present circumstances of the
colonies it would not be practicable to
adopt a general system of free trade;
that with view. however, to promoting
an increase of trade within the empire
1t is desirable that those colonies which
have not already adopted policy
should, as far as their circumstances
permit, give substantial preferential
treatment to the products and manu-
features of the United Kingdom.
Four premiers urge an imperial grant
to colonial products and manufactures,
giving preferential treatment in the
United Kingdom by exemption from or
reduction of duties. Five premiers
present at the conference undertake to
submit to their respective governments
such measures be taken as may be nee
essary to give effect to the principle OF
this resolution. A memorandum from
the president of the board of trade
shows that the premiers were prepared
to recommend preferential treatment on
British goods as follows:
Canada. the existing preference of
33 Is per cent and an additional pref
~, I,
duties in favor of the United Kingdom,
raising duties on foreign imports and
placing duties on certain foreign inn
ports now free; New Zealand 10 per
cent: ail-round reduction on present
duties on British goods; Cape Colony
and Natal, % per cent preference on
British goods.
Australia was not in position to de-
fine the extent of the preference to be
given.
Another resolution emphasizes the
desirability of considering the refusal
of the privileges of the coasting trade,
including trade between the United
Kingdom and the colonies and between
the colonies, the countries wherein cor
responding trade is carried in ships of
their own nationality.
The conference also adopted resolu-
lions advocating the use of the metric
system, the reservation by the govern
ment future agreements of the right to
purchase cables, and the inserting in
new shipping agreements of provisions
to prevent excessive freight charges or
any preference in favor of foreigners.
The radical attitude of the Canadian
ministers in favor of preferential trade
was shown turnout the conference. The
Canadians definitely urged upon Colo
NAL Secretary Chamberlain that, in
consideration of the substantial prefer
ence given by Canada to the products
of Great Britain, Canadian exports of
food products ought to be exempted
proposal. He said he did not believe
that there would follow any material
result to the trade of the United King
dom on account of the granting Of pref
erential trade by Canada, great as the
Canadian ministers claimed this trade
to be, and he declined to agree to such
departure from the fiscal policy of
the empire.

Complaints in Panama.

Panama, Nov. 5.-There is at present
much satisfaction in government cir
cles owing to the fact that Rear Ad-
miral Casey has notified the Panama
Railroad Company that he will allow
the transpo tation of government
troops across the isthmus on special
cars. Large numbers of Colombian
troops are at present encamped along
the railroad line. The health of the
soldiers is improving.
A survey is at present being made of
the steamer Lautaro. which was sunk
by the rebel fleet Jan. 20. in order to see

tent with dream drinks from the gum

candy cigaret, but are actually making
their own cigarets with rice paper and
real tobacco and are possibly INDUCING

Mr.. Smith said that his chain Of proof
still lacks several links. These he is
quietly forging. But he knows that
certain boys in one school are smoking
tobacco cigarets. Some of them are
bought ready made and some are man
ufactured by the smokers.
He is also sure that a great many
children buy openly and consume on
the streets and in their own homes the
candy cigaret. They also indulge with
out coneealment in the candy pipe, al
tho the red sugar or gilt paper on the
bowl Stimulates, TO the youthful imag-
nation, the pungent blaze of the vilest
pipe mixtures.

LOCAL ELECTION RESULTS.
Sore Threats and Colds Numerous
Almost an Epidemic, With Fears OF
pneuynonia

rucuHlOftds
There is always an epidemic OF
coughs and colds caused by election
work and the exposure in waiting TOR
returns AS result, druggists are pc
ing rushed with orders for Hyomel, the
famous remedy that cures coughs ana
colds by simply breathing it.
The people who are well today, IN
stead of suffering with cold or sore
throat, are those who, when waiting
around for returns last night, had with
them one of the Hyomei pocket inhal-
ers, and occasionally took breath of
its balsamic air that kills all germs OF
cold and catarrh and prevents disease
getting fastened upon the system. Any
throat specialist will tell you that his
practice is more than double after the
fall elections, and that pneumonia is
In some years almost epidemic.
Hyomei will cure coughs and colds
and prevent pneumonia. Just breathe
II. A complete Hyomei outfit costs 81
and consists of an inhaler that can be
carried in the vest pocket, medicine
dropper and a bottle of Hyomei. The
inhaler lasts lifetime. while extra bot
ties of Hyomei if needed can be OBJ
tanned for so cents.
Hyomei is one of the few medicines
that are sold under positive guaran
tee to give satisfaction. If it does not
cure you. your druggist will refund
your money. This is the strongest EVIL
dence that can be offered as to Hyo-
mei's wonderful powers to cure a cold

'oman Aeronaut Meets With Hor-
- rible Death,

Anna, Ill.,, Nov. 5.-Dora Morrison, an
inexperienced aeronaut,, fell from a
balloon here today and was instantly
killed. She had assembled to height
of two thousand fet, hanging by her
arms, as she started, being unable to
draw herself UP to the trapese bar
Prof. Schwartz, who regularly makes
ascensions for a carnival company,
which is exhibiting here this week,
endeavored to persuade the 19year-old
girl not to so UP, altho she had made
two ascensions last week at Lincoln,
where she Joined the company. She in
sisted, and as she was ready to start,
refused to allow him to fasten the
line to the trapese bar.
1t was evident to the balloon man and
to the thousands of spectators that she
had not made a proper start. In vain
she struggled to draw her body up to
the trapese bar, but each effort only
exhausted so much strength. Finally
the climax was reached, then the body
was seen to leave the balloon; over and
over 1T turned, until the body was
crushed and broken against the earth.

ed all was ready and the hungry pill
grims squatted to partake of the sim
pie provision.
Some of the men had pieces of card
board, which they used as spoons. Oth-
ers had wooden spoons which were
handed round among four or five IN
turn. The majority. however, were
contented with natures utensils ana
used their fingers to convey the food to
their mouths.
The original supply of meal was eX-
hausted and several men went back m
to Binsearth to return with dozen
more bags of meal and as many bags OF
salt. They seem to be well supplied
with money and can pay for all they
get, altho they buy extensively. Their
second supply was also exhausted De-
fore the meal was over.
Touching Scenes at Yorkton.

ence of relatives, who do not believe In
the new faith. Two were young mar
ried women who had left their hus-
bands to seek a new love in Christ.
pitiful scene was enacted when young
husband attempted to persuade his wife
to return to his home. The man was in
tears, but the woman heard his en-
treaties without emotion and even
made no effort to still the cries of the
few months old infant in her arms.

sus." That was all her reply.
The husband adiured her to think of
their own love as man and wife, and
their home back in the village, now de-
serted.
Il love Jesus" she reiterated.
Another case, even sadder, If possi-
BILE was that of another married couple,
about so years ofage. The wife had left
her home with all the younger children,
some five in number, and they all We're
under the influence of the craze. The
husband had followed to induce her to
return. But it was useless. Outside
the Orange hall door he pleaded for
several hours, and never once did he
show by voice or gesture sign of inn
patience at her obstinacy.
AS for the woman, it could be seen
that she was torn by conflicting pas
sions, her love for her life's mate and
her love for the Christ for whom she
was in search The tears rolled down
her cheeks. but she answered never a
word, merely expressing her determin-
alton to go on as she was doing by FREE
quent shaking of the head.

this. and in year or two you will have
a bearing fig tree.
To Keep Figs.
This is a recipe used at my house:
Fig Preserves-Take 10 pounds Of
figs. not over ripe; dissolve heaping
tablespoonful of alum in enough water
to cover fruit; let figs soak in the So
luton over night; next morning drain
solution from fruit. and soak the lat
ter an hour in clear water. To each
pound of fruit use one pound of su-
gar. Put sugar in saucepan with
enough water to dissolve 1t, and
let it come to boil; then
drop in the fruit, and let cook
until the syrup thickens. Season with
preserving jars.
The following recipes are out of my
scrap book:
CrystalIized Figs.
A well-known confectioner who
crystallizes a large quantity of figs
yearly, purchases fruit that is not
perfectly ripe, and places them in
bath of clear lime water where he al
lows them to remain for several hours.
The syrup previously prepared and
made very thick is put into copper or
porcelain kettle, and when at the boil
ing point the fruit is placed in a wire
basket and immersed in the boiling
syrup, where it is allowed to remain
twenty minutes; it is then taken out
and drained, afterward put into a large
shallow kettle hung by chain over
slow fire, powdered sugar sprinkled
over them and gently agitated until the
fruit is perfectly crystallized.
Preserved Figs.
The process of preserving figs is sim
liar in all respects to preserving other
fruits. The cans, or jars, must be her
metically sealed while hot and placed
away in dark cool place. They should
be looked after daily during hot
weather, and If they show any signs Of
fermentation the jars should be placed
In shallow pans of cold water. which
should be brought to a boil, and when
the fruit is thoroughly heated, seal as
hGsore.

THE FIG AND
THE FIG TREE
Brief History of the Fruit and Few Facts
About Its Cultivation.
By ]. Fl. ESTHL.

With the exception Of the apple, the
fig is the first fruit mentioned in the
Bible. In the first book of Moses, the
part which deals with the aftermath of
the transgression OF our progenitors,
Adam and Eve-Genesis iii:7-we are
told that they knew they were naked
and they sewed fig leaves together and
made themselves aprons"
In the New Testament, Luke xiii:6-
Christ "spake this parable; a certain
man had a fig tree planted in his vine
yard; and he came and sought fruit
thereon, and found none.
Then said he unto the dresser OF his
vineyard, Behold, these three years 1
come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and
find none; cut it down; why cunbereth
it the ground?
"And he answering said unto him.
Lord, let 1t alone this year also, till
dig about it, and dung it:
"And if 1t bear fruit, we'll: and IL not,
then after that thou shall cut it
down.
The fig is frequently mentioned in the
Bible and In oriental stories. Judea in
ancient times abounded in fig trees,
both wild and cultivated; the fruit is
still an important article of food, and
the broad foliage of the trees makes a
delightful shade. The fig of commerce
is known botanically as the "Ficus Ca
rica," and is indigenous to Asia and
A 81. l. Ill 49,
along the Mediterranean, and also in
the Canary Islands, Spain and France.
1t was carried from Asia to ancient
Greece, where it was cultivated to
great perfection, and thence to Rome.
To the Mohammedans, those great
builders and developers, as we'll as de-
stroyers, of the Middle Ages, Spain is
doubtless indebted for the FIG, from
which country it was introduced into
France. The fig that we have no
doubt originally came from the latter
country, and was brought hither by
the Huguenots.
The fig in it's ripe state. as well as
when dried is an important article of
food with the poorer classes in Orien-
tai countries as we'll as a valuable ar
ported from Mediterranean ports runs
up into millions of dollars.
The fig is my favorite fruit. If it is a
pleasure to live under ones own vine
and fig tree" it is equally a pleasure
to pick and eat figs on a July, August
or September morning from your fig
tree
Figs do not take away ones appetite
for breakfast.
Forty years ago fig trees could have
been seen in nearly every garden or
yard In the Southern coast cities and
towns; and also on plantations, and
the planter was an excellent judge of
the fruit. The fig is not so plentiful
as It was in this section. Whether this
is due to a change in the climate. as
many claim to be the case, or to the
still somewhat unsettled conditions of
our people, is a question which I
leave for others to decide. think the
