ington his commission as lieutenant
colonel and body Of $50 men in order
that he might take command at the
Fork" finish the fort already begun
there and hold the territory against the
enemy.
Before Washington could carry out
these plans, however, the French, led
by Contrecoeur, came down from We
mango and captured it from the little
band Of English then In possession.
Contrecoeur completed the fertilization
Of the post, and for the governor of
New France named 1t Duquesne.
Throughout the remainder of the war
the efforts Of the English We're directed,
above all, to the capture of Fort Du-
quesne. 1t was In marching against it
that Braddock met with his defeat and
death, and it was his heroic behavior
during the terrible retreat from the
Point that first brought Washington
prominently before the notice of the
colonies and won him his first laure's
as a commander. Three years later
Washington again led English troops
against the French at Fort Duquesne,
this time successfully. The French set
fire to the Notifications and escaped
down the river by the light of the
flames. The immortal William Pitt
ordered the rebuilding Of the fort i'm.
mediately, and from him 1t received
Its name. The recapture of Fort Du-
quesne had given the English undls-
puted possession Of the Ohio and
brought the French and Indian wars
to a close.

A REVOLUTIONARY RELIC.
Famous Block House Of Old Fort Pitt
Threatened with Destruction.

Threatened with Destruction.
Unless the patriotic societies which
are at present striving for Its preserva-
ton win what seems at present an
almost hopeless fight, the famous block
house Of old Fort Pitt will soon be
torn from the spot it has occupied for
almost century and half, and Pitts
burg will lose its one relic Of prerevolu-
tionary days-the only notable historic
building Of any period. indeed, remain
ing in the city.
The block house was built as an out
post Of old Fort Pitt, from which Pitts
burg received its name, and which cov-
cred the ground previously occupied by
Fort Duquesne. 1t Is precious for its
associations not only to the city and
State in which it rests, but to the whole
nation. 1t stands on the point Of land
where the Allegheny and Monongahela
rivers flow together to form the Ohio.
This point, famous In history as 1.-The
Forks Of the Ohio" was the spot for
the possession of which the first blood
was spilled in the French and Indian
wars, and remained a strategic point
of the greatest Importance all through
the long struggle Of the Latin and

Warts.-Hold the hands In hot mus

teaspoonful of glyeerine on the wet
palms and rub the palms over the
warty surface of the other hand, dry
gently and put on an old pair Of kid
gloves from which the tips Of the fin
gers have been removed. Another
quick remedy Is to soak the warts till

Articular Rheumatism.-The latest
.dea Of treating rheumatism is by
means Of lemon Juice. The method con-
sists in swallowing the juice Of one
lemon the first day, Of two the second
and SO on progressively up to twenty
Eve lemons. When this limit Is reached
the number of lemons is progressively
diminished. In some cases the patient
may be able to drop the treatment at
three lemons. In another cure may be
affected at twenty-five lemons 50 COM
pletely and 80 persistenty that at the
end Of ten months the patient has no
attacks, whereas previously he may
have suffered periodically every month.
Tumors.-A new method for treating
tumors is by the use of boiling water
with a syringe having a metal cylinder
and adjustable piston, with needles Of
varying size. Using the ordinary as
ceptic precautions, water is taken
directly from the cauldron and injected
into the substance of the tumor. The
water must be from 100 to 212 degrees
Fahrenheit or even higher. The water
should be hot enough to coagulate the
blood and the albuminoids Of the tis-
sues Immediately. 1t should not be
forced in so extremely hot and under
such pressure as to scald and produce
necrosis Of the skin. During the
treatment the patient is put under the

One woman's Way OF PAINTING

The bright wife Of bright Philadel.
phia newspaper man has to do some of
the housework herself, as her hus.
bands income does not justify the
luxury of employing help. The other
day, finding out that the floor needed
painting, she procured the necessary
materials, and early In the afternoon
Get to work.
When her husband returned in the
early evening he found her In tears in
the center Of the room. She had paint.
ed the floor all around herself, and
there she was on little dry island in
the middle, afraid Of crossing the wet
paint for fear CT spelling all her work.
Her husband, Instead Of initiating Sir
walter Raleigh, procured board and
released her from durance vile. Then
he meanly told the story.

Anglican races for the mastery of
North America. The land surrounding
the block house property has now been
bought by the Pennsylvania Railroad,
which proposes to lay tracks and make
extensive improvements all through
that section. If its plans are carried
out the block house will fall a victim
to the march of progress.
The Plttsburg Chapter Of the Daugh-
ters Of the American Revolution, which
owns the block house and the nine
acres Of ground in which 1t stands, aid
ed by the American Historic and ScanIc
Preservation Society Of New York city.

which shall decide whether or not Pitts
burg may keep for itself this monu-
ment OF so many momentous events In
the history Of our country. In their
struggle the daughters have the SYM
pathy and support Of that city's most
int lligent and influential citizens.
The importance Of "the Forks OF the
Ohio" as a military basis was recog-
nzsd first by Washington, when. a
young man Of 81. he was sent by Gov.
Dinwiddle, of Virginia, to the COM
mander Of the French forces who had
invaded the region OF the Ohio river "to
know his reasons for invading the Brit
ish dominlons while solid peace sub
sisted" II took Washington nine isys
to reach the lonely spot where the
rapid Allegheny met, nearly at right
angles, the deep, silent Monongahela."
81 spent some time" writes Wash
ington, sin viewing both rivers. The
land In the fork has the absolute COM
mand Of both. The fat. well-timbered
land all around the point lies very con-
venient for building"
So in Imagination Washington built n
fort and city where the block house
and Plttsburg now stand. When the
French had declared their intention Of
taking possession OF the Ohio, the first
thing Washington called to the atten.
tion Of Gov. Dinwiddle was the neces-
sity OF building fort at the Forks"
securing this important position. DIM
widdle at once dispatched an officer
with a small party OF men to start the
desired fertilization, and gave Wash.

Absence of Smoke in Ber,in

According to consular reports. Berlin,
although busy manufacturing city. ia
one OF the cleanest and best kept In
Europe. The smokeless condition of
the Berlin atmosphere Is ascribed TO
three facts-the preponderant use of
coke and briquettes, which are practi-
cally smokeless; the skilful scientific
construction Of boiler furnaces and
chimneys, and, finally, the high stand
ard of skill that Is taught and enforced
among iremen who stoke furnaces
with coal for steam and manufactur
ing purposes. Before man can as
sumo such a charge he must be taught
the theory and practice Of economical.
scientific firing, by which the coal ia
distributed In such a manner and ouan-
tity over the CRATE surface as to secure
the most perfect combustion of its yol,.
tile elements. The Silesian coal used
IN Berlin in most large steam plants
and factories Is rich In bitumen. and
would rank below many of the btu.
minous Goals of the United States. and
yet the long, dense, trailing clouds Of
smoke so familiar sight In many
American cities are rarely seen in that
section Of Germany, where the indis-
criminate shovelllng Of raw bltuminous
coal Into the steam and other furnaces
Is considered an ignorant and wastefuI
proceeding.

held second successful political
demonstration last evening outside

listened attentively the arguments of

was in evidence and native orchestra
enlivened the proceedings.
Among the speakers were ]. A. Gil
man, S. K. Kamaiopili. c. K. Quinn
and S. Nawaa, Mr.. Gilman being the
principal orator. He exhorted the vot-
ers to vote the entire ticket without
scratching as such procedure meant the
election of a Home Ruler and denied
that he would act in the interests Of
any corporation or corporations as
against any measure that in his judg-

Honolulu, T. H, Oct. II, 1903.
Editor Advertiser: On page six of
your today's issue notice a denial by
Mr.. Brigham Of certain remarks made
by him to Messrs. Boulton and mas
much as these gentlemen are not in the
city to refute this slander on their in
tegrity, I feel it the duty of a loyal
Catholic to champion their cause on
their behalf.
On Monday, Oct. 18th, Messrs. Boul-
ton visited the Bishop Museum and
while there Mr.. Brigham did make the
statement accredited to him in the In
dependents issue Of the 14th inst, as
reproduced by you.
Messrs. Boulton recited the con-
versation precisely as it there appear
ed, to Father Valentin last Monday at
the Young Building, Immediately upon
their return from the museum and
again in the presence of the Bishop at
the mission and I regard the integrity
of these two gentlemen as far superior
to that of Mr.. Brigham.
