The Remedy That We Rec
Ommend to be Taken
After Sickness
Is Vinol, 1T promotes
Strength and Quick Re-
c0very.

The worst part of being sick is the getting well.
That is the time when patience is a virtue
The sufferer cannot see from day to day that any
strength is gained. The appetite is tful, the hours
drag YEARLY, and 1t that nature would never
be able to resume her natural course.
Nature finds hard work after the repairing pro-
cess she has been going through to do much more
without aid. She cries out for help. We know at
such times Vinol is of great assistance
We have posted ourselves concerning the scientific
action that takes place when Vinol Is taken into
the system. We would be very glad to tell you
what we have learned in this direction and how
Vfnol acts upon the body We have in our expe-
rience had many opportunities to notice the result
that has actually been accomplished where vinol
has been used. These results have always been
satisfactory, often astounding even to u.s.
If you are getting well from any trouble try
Vinol You will sleep better your appetite will
improve and, above all, that which you eat will
more readily assimilate. 1t will be only a day or
two before you will realize that your strength is
increasing.
If any one is skeptical we only ask one thing
that is. that such a call on lis and let us at
least endeavor to convince him.. Such a CONVERSE
ton cannot do any one harm Here is a letter
concerning Vinol, from Mr.. Isaac Chsppaigne of
Keene.- n. II. He says:
ut is with great pleasure that I indorse vinol
My little girl Cora. after hard case of scarlet
fever, took 1t with the very best results do not
believe she would have recovered if it had not
been for Einol. she weak. Now she is in
the very best of health"
Remember we guarantee Ninol
and always stand ready to refund to
the purchaser the price paid for it
if complete satisfaction is not given.

Cannot Fight in Charleston.

There will be no fight between Jefferies
and Fitzsimmons or any other celebrities
in Charleston S. c. 1t was reported from
Charleston yesterday that the attorneys
of Promoter Jaudon would go to Columbia
to present the case to Governor McSwee-
ney. They did not 60 however.
The governor, however, has already set
tied the matter. He says that, though he
saw no reason for announcing his position
before the question had been officially
brought to his attention, having looked
up the law on the subject there was only
one thing for him to do and that was to
prevent prize fighting, whether or not it
was glove contest or bout for points,
so long as there was prize"
He said he would instruct the shari.f mt
to permit the contest, and if that cf4icial
had trouble he would go to the extent of
calling out the militia. The governor says
both the constitution and state laws are
plain on this subject, and there can be no
possibility Of having a fight in that state.

Cornell Wants a Regatta at Ithaca.

Cornell will endeavor to persuade Column
bia and Pennsylvania to agree to go to
Ithaca for the secbndfvarsity regatta and
join with Harvard and the Ithacans in
making a quadrangular event for May so.
The facilities ait Ithaca are regarded
greatly superior tn those at Philadelphia,
and an observation train of forty cars can
be easily provided. In consequence the
Ithacans would be able to realize big pro-
ceeds from the sale of seats, and thus be
able to defray the expenses of visiting
crews in part. rs.
Manager Teagle of the Cornell navy left
for Poughkeepsie Yesterday afternoon He
will arrange for CornelPs quarters for the
June regatta and then visit New York
and Philadelphia to- confer with the Co.
lumbia and Pennsylvania authorities.

AVOIDING DUTY.
Imported Borax as Crystals in Order
 to Save Heavy Import Duty.

New York. July 1S-ErneSt l.. Fleming. an English manufacturer of washing crystals, who recently came to tnis coun- try to inquire into the tar1n on ms pro- ducts, has been arrested charged with en- deavoring to enter into this country i'm ported mercha ndise by means or frauou- lent and false invoices.
 MT Fleming was in the federal oulld- ing at the time. With a lawyer he had gone there to consult with Cnited States District Attorney Burnett about the law But. after a previous investigation had been made by John Curtis, speclal agent of the Treasury Department, complaint against Mr. Fleming had been drawn up. This was in the hands of United States Marshal Henkel, who on learning that MT. Fleming was In the building, served the warrant. He was taken before Commissioner Alexander and was held in $2,OOO bail. which was fur nished at once.
 In the complaint he Is charged with having. shipped to this country from Iiyerpool by the Cevic on May If. nrty bags which purported to contain washing crystals. not concentrated. It Is alleged however. that thirty of these bags con tatned three tons of borax instead or washing crystals. While sal soda, or washing crystals. pays duty or one fifth of. cent pound poraH pays "N'' of five cents a pound.
 "I am all at sea on'the law. salo MT Fleming 'I applied to the United States consul in London early in the year TOT definite information as to the import tax on borax from which washing crystalS are made. He could not give any dennite data on the subject and he advised me 10 make a test case with a small consign- ment I did this and the shipment was admitted on the duty of one-hfth or cent a pound As this was satisfactory to me I sent another and larger conslgn- ment. Imagine my surprise when outy of ! cents a pound was levied on thls- and this is what I consider prohioit1ve rate. - ..o.
 "All of the second consignment was not of the ame quality as the first. SIX ol the bags which had been sampled TOT enaIvsis were admitted under the one 6fth of a cent a pound basis. but the rest uras held I'D under the contention that II u,as nure borax and the five cents pound dutv was imposed. But these bags % %olo not contain pure borax and the ehure shinment should have been admitted un- der the tariff imposed on the first con signment. ,.r os aA- frauding this government.

and half. The water in the pit was beaten into foam and was soon dyed red with the blood of the animals that flowed freely from tn wounds made by the conbatants. It wasn't long before the attendants heard of it and four keepers hurried to the pit armed with clubs and spears. The pit is about 10 feet deep and 7h feet long and the fighting animals wete fighting all over 1t. The clubs and even the sharp p-pointed spears failed to separate them and rope was resorted to. After many attempts one of the keepers managed to lasso the big alligator. Then. while the others tried to keep Ike away with the spears and clubs. two of the keepers tried to drag Pete along to the end of the tank.
 They had almost succeeded when the other alligator got away and went after his antag- onist. Desoits the rope around his neck. which had worked down so far to leave his jaws free. Pete met the rush of the other and opening wide his enormous jaws caught the other right around the neck There crunching sound and 1t all over. When Pete finally let go his hold it was seen that the alligator had been choken to death in the vise-like grip of Petes jaws
 The body was lifted out and then Pete be- came quiet again. It will be long time before any more alligators are put in his pit.

TALKS OF oR1Noco RIVER
on Indians, Jaguars and Ali

Philadelphia Press.
 One of the greatest rivers of the world, the Orinoco, is also one of the least known to Americans. Its sister, the Am azon, has often been described by Wal ace and Bates, among others, but Hum boldt remains practically the only real au- thority upon the great stream which ris- Ing on the frontiers of Brazil, runs for 2,OO0 miles through Venezuela, receiving in its course such immense tributaries as ,-le Mela and Apure. and 1ischarging .t- self by a hundred mouths Into the South Atlantic opposite the British island of Trinidad.
 The principal entrance and the only one available for sailing vessels is the Boea Grande. to the south, into which foY. among other tributaries. the Ara tura and the Amacura. the latter almost cc!nci1ing in its courses with the Schom- burg boundary line between British Guinea and Venezuela. But most Of the traffic of the Orinoco passes through Trim dad, where passengers and goods are transferred to steamers almost fiat bot toned, and reach the Orinoco by the mouth known as Macarao the open sea being avoided. It was by that route that the writer started in the Apure, char tered for the occasion, on trip of 50 miles up the great river forming probably the first and certainly the largest party of tourists which had ever ascended it
 Six hours after leaving Port-of-Spain the entr ance of the Maca-ao was reached. and for fourteen hours we navigated a deep enamel, peTndIS ndlI Hiile Wlue whose attractions surprised those who had read of the delta of the Orinoco as a dismal swamp. thousands of square miles in extent tenanted only by few wild Indians who built their houses ir among the trees by wild beasts and bS birds. The description is true, though the impression left is not quite correct. We'll nigh impenetrable forests and under growth hide ground which Is for the most part ooze. covered for half the year by water. The Guaraon Indians, many of whom padded out 10 meet the steamer and beg. in canoes roughly hollowed from the trunk of a tree and who dispute SUI premacy of the wilds with jaguars and alligators, are extremely low specimens of humanity, though attachment to their dogs, large. rough haired and excellent hunters. should be mentioned to their credit.
 But the passerby sees none of the hor- TOTS of this great swamp. They are con- cealed by magnificent trees growing tc the aters edge whose branches some times may be touched from the steamer when she is steered close to the shore ir ordei to avoid the current.
