REVIEWED BY PRESIDENT.
North Atlantic Squadron at Anchor IT
 Long Island Sound.


 Long Island Sound.
 President Roosevelt on Monday re- viewed the north Atlantic squadron, commanded by Rear Admiral Barker. The fleet was anchored in four lines off Lloyd's neck, on Long Island sound. The president went on board the Mayfiower at S:30 o'clock. With him were Admiral Dewey, Rear Admiral Taylor, chief of the bureau of naviga- ton; Rear Admiral Rodgers, command ant of the New York navy yard; Cap tain Brownson, commandant of the Ma val academy; General Chaffee, Sir Thomas Lipton and others.
 The Mayf1ower passed in review at 9:30, steaming to the head of the south column, then along the south side of that column, between it and the torpe- do fiotilla, passing around it's west end and steaming back along the north side of the north column, finally anchoring between the columns. Each ship fired the presidential salute as the Mayf1ower passed.
 After the Mayflower came to anchor the flag officers and commanding off, cers called upon the president. At 80 o'clock the Mayfiower steamed to- the eastward, followed by the fleet in sin gle column. The Mayfiower stopped while the fleet passed in review. The fleet then continued down the sound, and the Maytiower returned to Oyster Ray

He Met His Match.

The Russian marshal Suvaroff was famous as a jester and was fond of confusing the men under his command by asking them unexpected and ab- surd questions. But occasionally he met his match. Thus. one bitter Janu- ary night, such as Russia only can pro duce, he rode up to a sentry and de- handed:
 "How many stars are there in the sky?'
 The soldier, not whit disturbed, an swered coolly:
 "Wa1t little, and I'll tell you" And he deliberately commenced counting, "One, two, three," etc.
 When he had reached 100, Suvaroff, who was half frozen, thought it high time to ride of; not, however, without inQuiring the name of the ready reck- oner. Next day the latter found him- self promoted. @.. ...

Justice HnrIan,s Long Walks.

Although Justice Harlan of the Unit ed States supreme court has reached what some have been pleased to call the dead line" of actual life, being now just threescore and ten, he does not propose to recognize that arbitrary limitation, but will continue his duties on the bench for an indefinite time. He sees no apparent reason why he should retire. since he enjoys excellent health and is apparently no older than he was twenty years ago. He walks from Washington to the Chevy club, a good seven miles, to play his ire quent game of golf. and he seldom rides to or from the sessions of the court Probably his fine physical con dition is due to his excellent habits.- Leslie's Weekly.

sasrer, no matter how old you may De and how many wasted years are be- hind, shall not God inspire you and lift you up as he changed that woman's life? Shall not the divine power guard your remaining days as Moses and Joshua's lives were protected?
 Nearly every royal order has a royal insignia. In Germany one of the most honorable of orders was that started by King William called ''the Order of the Iron Cross" Would that today the Heavenly King, instead of an earthly potentate, might place over your heart the sign of the Iron Cross" May it prove that in his name you have work ed and will continue to work divine wonders. Saved by grace, may you all ways continue to spiritually bless the lives of your fellow men.

CONSTIPATION CURED. A BarrytoWn, N.Y., Mans Experi- ence with Cal-cura Solvent. Or. David ksnnedy's New Medicine Cured
 Him Promptly.

Constipation leads to worse. Often it is the cause of appendicitis. Always it leads to dangerous chronic disease. It should not be neglected, nor should it be tempor- arily relieved with drastic purgatives. Here is a case in point:
 MT. c. s. Osterhoudt, of Barrytown, N. Y., was distressed with indigestion, chronic constipation and kidney trouble for four years He tried many medicines without relief He heard of Cal-cura Solvent, Dr. Kennedy's new medicine, used it and began to improve rapidly. All of his old complaints have disappeared and he owes everything to Cal-cura Sol- vent.
 Write to the Cal-cura Company, Kenne- dy Row, Rondout, N, Y., for free sample bottle.
 Remember: Only one Dr. David Ken nedy ever lived in Rondout, City of Kings ton, N. Y., and be sure you get his ssew and latest medicine, which is sold only in $1. .00 bottles.

A Modern Indian Wedding

A modern Indian wedding contains grotesque combination of civilization and barbarism, as will be seen from the following account of a marriage ceremony which recently occurred in Oklahoma: ''The bride was handsome pink silk ribbon sash, blue collar and cuffs, black hat with yellow and lav- ender trimmings, green veil and black gloves. The bridegroom wore the con ventional black, except his coat, which, 1t being a warm day, he had left at home. He carried an immense eagle wing"

Peculiar Twinn.

A Harlem mother who has twins and Is perforce obliged to study the pe- culiarities of the species affirms that never has she punished one of them they are both boys-for misdeed but that the other committed the identical offense at the very first opportunity.
 Moreover, if one asks a question. es- pecially in regard to an unusual hap pening, in the absence of the other his brother almost invariably repeats the query and very frequently in the same phraseology.
 Her twins are not bad boys, but the mother says that she Is satis- fled of the faet-that- -twiisf44s-r require as much attention and make as much noise as four ordinary children.-New York Times.

Wound. of the Heart.

In wounds of the heart itself the es- cape of blood 6 never in large quan- tity, and the lethal consequences are due to the fact that the escape of blood from within its cavity or cavities into the surrounding sac of the pericardium mechanically interrupts the alternate contraction and expansion by which its pumping action is maintained. Ac- cordingly the results of the wound of the heart are usually identical with those of gradual sufrocation.-Ameri- can Medicine.

MARRIAGE A STRIKE CURE.
Mayor knotts Again Champions Cause of Matrlrlony.

of Matrlnony.
 Mayor Knotts of Hammond, H., has again championed the cause of matri- mony. Bachelors, says the mayor, are a detriment to a community, while married men are valuable assets.
 In an appeal just issued he asks the merchants and manufacturers of the city to employ married men only. May or Knotts declares that single men are the chief fomentors of labor troubles; that they are reckless and as a rule do a town more harm than good.
 Mayor Knotts a year ago offered to marry free all couples residing in Hsm- mond and to give them moral and oth- CT support in establishing their homes.
