Carthagena, whittier a couple of
United States warships have gone to
give the Colombians an impression IS
one of the old Spanish cities of the
New World. 1t was taken by French
buccaneers as far back as 1914. Sir
Francis Drake captured and pillaged it
in 1885, and ransomed it from complete
destruction for 10000 ducats. In 1897
the buccaneers made another attack,
and carried off an enormous treasure.
In 1741 it was bombarded by the British
Admiral Vernon, but the attack failed.
In the long war which was waged be-
tween Spain and her Colonies, Cartha-
gena was beseiged by Bolivar, and
since then its streets have run blood
in countless revolutions. Altogether
Carthagena has had a somewhat stormy
history and has endured some terrible
periods.

The government of the French Re
public makes little ado about its rioters
and very promptly claps them into Jail.
Once in the clutches of French law,
they have some difficulty in getting
out. The theory of French law is that
the arrested man is guilty, and all
kinds of ingenious devices are resorted
to make him confess his guilt. In the
case of the rioting Paris bakers they
have something on their side. 1t is
not just that through a charitable or
ganizatiOn the ordinar market price of
bread should be lowered, or particular
retailers should be favored by such an
organization. But the bakers will get
punished safe enough.

Opinions upon the japanese and Rus
sian fleets vary. Many of the officers
in the squadron believe that the Rus
sian fleet is much stronger than that
of Japan, and that the fleet of the lat
ter will be blown out Of the water Of
course they ought to know and are
certainly thoroughly qualified to Judge
But even military and naval men some
times msjudge. The French army
before the Franco-Prussian war, was
considered the finest army in Europe,
But the German army simply ate it
up. The Spanish Armada appeared ir-
resistible, but it w9s smashed up by
the little British fleet The Russians

machines, unless they can use them TO

Michigan has broken out with the
lynching fever. AS long as the law
gives such chances of escape to Grim
inals, and as long as there are so many
delays in bringing them to trial, lych-
ing will continue and will spread from
state to state and Territory to Terri
tory. We have never had a lynching
here, but the utter failure of justice in
the trial of Jones will assuredly bring
one about. Then the courts and the
criminal lawyers will tumble to the
fact that it is unwise to palter with
true justice.

the iron bound coast, the unfortunate

 When interviewed Pete said: q have just received another letter from Ger many. It is from Dr. Edwin L. Faust, Pharmaceutical Laboratory University of Strassburg, and he wants $50 worth of rattlesnake venom in its powdered form to experiment with. He thinks my price of $25 per drachm is too high, but when 1t comes to procuring the stuff. in the manner it has to be taken from the snake. with a slip meaning a bite that would result in either death or weeks in the hospital, I can tell you I will not furnish a drachm for 1 cent less. have to pick each snake up with my hand and force 8 spoon into its mouth in order to procure it's venom, and although have handled rattlers all my life new CT court trouble unless there is a fnan- cial consideration worth taking the risks for"

 OFFICER OF SENATE.
Handsome Work in oil Sent to State Archives by Col. Sam Will John of Birmingham,

AN 0.JECT LESSON
In a Restaurant.

A physician puts the query: Have you never noticed in any la1 ge restaurant al lunch or dinner time the large number oi hearty. vigorous old men at the tables men whose ages run from 60 to 80 yea 8; many of them bald and all perhaps gray, but none of them feeble or senile? Perhaps the spectacle is so common as to have escaped your observation or com ment, but nevertheless 1t Is an object lesson which means something.
 If you win notice what these hearty old fellows are eating you will observe that they are not munchIng bran crackers nor gingerly picking thsir way through a menu card of new fangled health foods on the contrary they seem to prefer a juicy roast of beef. a properly turned loin of mutton and even the deadly brolled lobster is not altogether ignored.
 The point of all thiA is that a vigorous old age depends upon good digestion and plenty of wholesome food and not upon dieting and an endeAvor to live upon bran crackers.
 There is a certain class of food cranks who seem to believe that meat coffee and many other good things are rank poisons, but these cada yerous sickly look ing individuals a a walking condemna- ton of their own theories.
 The matter in a nutshell is that if the stomach secretes the natural digestive juices in sufficient quantity any whole | some food will be promptly digested; fl | the stomach does not do so, and certalI foods cause distress, one or two of Stu | arts Dyspepsia Tablets after each mea will remove all difficulty because they | supply just what. every weak stomach | lacks, pepsin. hydro-chloric acid, dias l tase and nuX.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets do not ac

 strictly a medicine as they act almos l entirely upon the food eaten. digesting i
