SHE ESCAPED THE KNIFE
Ten Months of Pence After Dreadful
Suffering.

ZEN MOhthS Oh feuCe AIUeE
Suffering.
Operations are becoming a fad;
every young man, as soon as he is
graduated from a medical college,
considers himself capable of under
taking the most serious and compli-
Gated surgical work, and hundreds of
lives are sacrificed annually to this
mad frenzy of incompetent men, to
rush into work which should only be
undertaken as a last resort, and then
only by the most experienced and
careful surgeons.
It is a pleasure, In view of these
facts, to read the following letter from
a woman who has been saved from
one of these dangerous operations. II
know l should have informed you long
ago regarding my case of piles and the
good done me- and I believe I am
cured. Last December I sent for your
book I have never been bothered
since then, and before I had suffered
for the last eleven years, and at the
time l wrote l had given birth to
child, and they came down with the
delivery of the child by the handful.
I could not get them back and I suf-
fered everything; and the doctor said
nothing but an operation would ever
relieve me; but l read of your rem
cay IN our daily newspaper anu IOlu
my husband to get me a box and 1
would give it trial before consenting
to the knife, and thanks be to your
wonderful medicine I was saved from
the operating table.
Every person suffering from piles
that my husband and myself hear of,
we recommend your wonderful medi
cine. I just used one $1.00 box of
Pyramid Pile Cure, and two boxes of
Pyramid Ointment and two boxes of
Pyramid Pills, and 1 was, hope, COM
pletely cured. If they ever show the
slightest return / will certainly get
some more medicine, for I hardly
think l will need any more for it will
be a year the Sth day of December
since l had them, and that makes it
ten months and past now. Thanking
you again and wishing you abundant
success, I remain, Mrs. S. Hodgson,
105 w. 18th ST., Des Moines, Iowa"

gists for fifty cents package or will

ceipt of price, by Pyramid Drug Co.,

band is to have Lieut.. Col. Taylor pro-
NOTED to the rank of colonel. This
would entitle the fort to a band and
to all other perquisites of that rank.
One of the reasons urged for the band
is that it will not only be for the en-
tertainment of the men but is valuable
also in discipline.
Gen. Chaffee when here recommend
ed that additional quarters be built at
the fort and this will doubtless be
done shortly 1t is probable also that
the fort will be enlarged and its arma-
ment be increased. The recent pur-
chase of land in the neighborhood
would indicate that something of this
kind is contemplated by the Govern
ment.

Greatest Depth of Pacific.
From Leslie's.

The soundings made in the Moser
basin and in Tonga Kermadec deep,
were accompanied by great excitement.
1t was on a beautiful clear day, the
20th of February, that the Albatross
approached within a little more than
one hundred miles of Guam. The YES
sci lay to, and preparations were made
for one of the frequent soundings. At
length, the silence was broken by a
brief order and the tinkling of bell.
Slowly the machinery Of the engin be-
gan to work and slowly the tough wire
rope began to sink beneath the water,
Foot by foot. fathom by fathom, two
thousand, three and then four thou
sand fathomS disappeared. The record
was passed. Five miles of rope!
1t was an anxious moment, for the
strain caused by the immense length
and weight of the wire rope on the ma
chinery was tremendous. But every
thing held firm; and at length, when
the mark recorded 4,S13 fathoms, or U.s.
S7S feet, practically the hight of Mount
Everest, bottom was touched. 1t was
an added triumph for American geolog-
ical science.

Purchase of Land Lends Color to

To secure a band for Fort Screven
an active though quiet effort has been
in progress for some time, and though
it has not yet been successful neither
has it by an means been abandoned.
The chief mover in the matter is Col.
j, II. Estill, and he has enlisted in the
effort all the Georgia congressman and
the two senators.
The question of securing a band for
the Tybee post first came up at the
time of Gen. Chaffee's visit to Savan-
nah some weeks ago. 1t was then dis
cussed by a number of gentlemen, and
Lieut.. Col. A. c. Taylor, officer in
charge of the fort. Lieut.. Col. Taylor
stated then that in the garrison were
some sixteen men, old musicians, who
could form a band, but that no instru-
ments were to be had.
Efforts have since been made to Sc
cure instruments through an appeal to
the quartermaster's department of the
United States army, but without sue
cess, as the department holds that the
commanding officer of the fort not be-
ing a colonel the post is not entitled to
band, and further stated that it has
no instruments on hand.
Through Hon. Rufus E. Lester the
matter was taken up with Adjt. Gen
COrbin. In reply to a letter sent by
Mr. Lester to that gentleman a reply
has recently been received stating that
no instruments are on hand and that
he cannot consider the request for the
present. 1t is the opinion of Mr. Les
ter that the only way to secure the

HUNDRED THAT
 IT WAS SUICIDE
DELEHANTY, THE FAMOUS BALL PLAYER, IS SAID TO HAVE BEEN IN A RESPONDENT FRAME OF MIND OVER LOSSES.

Washington. July 7.-Word received in Washington today leaves little doubt that b. Delehanty, the famous ball player, who is said to have committed suicide, may have been accidentally drowned at Fort Erie, Ont on the night of July ?. He left Detroit that day in a Respondent frame of mind after several days of dissipation. A letter received by Mrs. Delehanty says that an unknown man on the night In question had difficulty with a bridge tender at Fort Erie, and a moment or two later fell or jumped into the river.
 A dress suit was recovered and in this was found baseball ticket No. S. issued by the Washington club to Delehanty. He had been in anything but good form owing to his disappointment in not being able to accept the large salary offered by the New York National League club. The day he left Detroit he had taken out an accident policy made payable to his little daughter and he wrote letter in which he expressed the hope that the train he was taking would run off the track or that something would happen to him.
 Delehanty spent the past winter In New Orleans and is said to have lost money heavily on the races.

CONCESSIONS ARE SECURED

New York, July 1.-The officials of the United States Steel corporation today announce that work will be begun short- ly on the new plant of that company at Port colborne Ontario. Canada, where a large tract of land has been acquired for that purpose.
 Concessions from the Dominion govern ment have been secured for dredging the immense basin or harbor at the june tion of the Welland canal and Lake Erie, which will be of sufficient size to harbor the sea-going vessels of the com pany's fleet.
 An option has been secured from one of the Niagra Falls power companies for 6,OOO horse electric power.
 It is proposed to erect a great indus trial city there and manufacture all the steel products that will be sold in Canada and throughout the world outside of the United States.
 The new plant will not compete with the American plants of the company for United States trade, which will be served from the present plants of the company at Carnegie, Pittsburg and other domes- tie points.
 The threatened tariff legislation by Eng land and English possessions throughout the world and the proposed ship canal from Port Colborne to the Atlantic ocean are said to be the actuating motives for the new plant.

MEMORANDUM
 IS NOW PREPARED
CANDIDATES FOR CECIL RHODES SCHOLARSHIPS WILL BE ELECT. ED BETWEEN FEBRUARY AND MAY, 1904, IN UNITED STATES.

New York, July 7.-The trustees of the will of Cecil Rhodes have prepared a memorandum for the information of col lege authorities and intending candidates for Rhodes scholarships in the. United States. The first election of scholars in the United States under the bequest will be held between February and May, 1901. and the elected scholars will commence residence in October
 A qualifying examination will be held in each state and territory or at centers which can be easily reached. This ex- animation is not competitive, but Is in- tended to give assurance that all candi- dates are fully qualified for a course at Oxford university. It will therefore be based on the requirement of the first pub lie examination exacted by the university from each candidate for a degree. One scholar will be chosen for each state and territory to which scholarships are as- signed.
 It has been decided that all scholars shall have reached at least the end of their sophomore, or second years work at some recognized degree-granting uni versity or college of the United States.
