Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
SUMPTION. "Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptlve 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scott sEmulsionist themod-
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

Americans Observe Anniversary
of the Destruction of the
Maine at Havana
MANY FLOWERS ON THE WRECK
Floral Tributes Were Numerous, But
All Attempts to Stir Up Animosity of
Spanish Residents in Havana Were
Avoided-Memoria Exercises Held on
Board Boats in the Harbor.

Havana, Feb. 16.-Four hundred
Americans Sunday observed the fifth
anniversary of the destruction of the
Maine. proceeding to where the Maine
now lies With flag draped with Grape
and wreath which was hung on the
wreck as a tribute to those who lost
their lives in the disaster. Representa-
tives of the Cuban Veterans Associa-
ton took part in the ceremony and
brought the finest of all the floral offer
ings. The exercises were purely me-
animosities being avoided. The United
States legation was not represented,
Minister Squiers holding that any pos
sibility of stirring up the feelings of the
Spanish residents by public exercises
commemorative of bitter incident in
the war ought to be avoided. The Gu
ban government officials finally decided
not to attend. but the government
launch accompanied the procession to
the wreck. United States Consul Ru-
bles. Vice Consul Springer and some
army were present
"A United States quartermaster's
launch led the way to the wreck, fol-
lowed by two small steamers loaded
with Americans and numerous little
craft. All about the harbor American
and Cuban flags were flying at half
mast. The strains of the dead march
played by the band of the United States
artillery corps floated across the water
as the procession made its way to the
Maine. After completing the decoration
of the forlorn wreck, the boats clustered
around the quartermasters launch,
the awning deck of which was utilized
as platform. After prayer offered
by the Rev. Mr.. Mcpherson, General
NuneZ, the governor of Havana prov
ince. who is also the president of the
Cuban Veterans Association. spoke In
Spanish to the effect that the Cuban
veterans would never permit such an
occasion to pass without testifying
their regard for those whom the Cubans
We're proud to regard as comrades.
Ernest Conant delivered the memorial
address. He paid a tribute to the vic
Tins but commended the mutual respect
row existing between those who for a
brief period fought each other. and in
Sampson the speaker especially eulo-
gized the Spanish admiral. Cervera.
Other speakers urged the co-opera-
ton of Cubans, Spaniards and Ameri-
cans in working out Cuba's destiny.

Tendency Of The Times.

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventive measures. The best
thought of the world is being given to
the subject. 1t is easier and better
to prevent than to cure. 1t has been
fully demonstrated that pneumonia,
one OF the most dangerous diseases
that medical men hove to contend with,
can be prevented by the use of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. Pneumonia.
always results from cold or from an
attack of influenza tgrippe), and it has
been observed that this remedy coun-
terasts any tendency of these diseases
toward pneumonia. This has been fully
proven in many thousands of cases in
which this remedy fas been used DUR
ing the great prevalence of colds and
grippe in recent years, and can be re-
lied upon with implicit confidence.
Pneumonia often results from slight
cold when no danger is apprehended
until it is suddenly discovered that
there is fever and difficulty in breath
ing and pains in the chest. then it is
announced that the patient has pneu-
monia. BE on the safe side and take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as soon
as the cold is contracted 1t always
cures. For sale by all druggists.

TO RUN TRAINS FASTER.
Agreement to Reduce Speed of Freight
Trains Broken

,
Chicago. Feb. 1.-THE general man
ayers of the western railroads do not
seem to be able TO keep their official
and "gentlemen's" agreements any bet
ter than the presidents or passenger
agents. Less than a month ago the
general managers Of all the important
roads west of Chicago and st. Louis
met here and agreed to make thirty
hours the minimum running time of
freight trains between Missouri river
points and Chicago. That was a de-
crease in speed of the fastest freight
trains of about 25 per cent on an av-
erage but much more of decrease on
the shortest lines.
This was the first big step backward
in transportation service taken by rail-
roads since competition began, and it
is all the more remarkable because it
was taken when freight rates were
higher than ever before. owing to new
traffic and the abolition of rebates to
favored shippers. Another striking
fact is that the decision to run freight
trains slower was made when every
road was congested with freight, when
it would seem that efforts should be
mace 10 move tFdlnS ana increase the
speed.
Before the slow-speed agreement had
been in effect ten days it became ap-
parent that one of the lines from here
to the Missouri river was making a
remarkable gain in traffic, apparently
at the expense of some of it's com
petitors. A quiet investigation brought
out the fact that certain trains of that
particular road were reaching Chicago
in less than thirty hours, after they
left the Missouri river. The other day
a bad freight wreck occurred on that
road and the official investigation
showed that the train was running at
the rate of forty-three miles an hour
when the accident occurred. That
speed is more than twice as fast as
is permissible under the agreement OF
the general managers. Officials OF the
road on which the wreck occurred re-
ceived a batch of letters from those
of the other lines, all saying served
you right"
1t is stated today that fully half the
lines are violating the slow speed
agreement to the qualification of ship
pers and receivers of freight.

None of the Milwaukee physicians
questioned had ever heard of Irene How
or her sanitarium before receiving the
circular.
The physicians receiving these circu-
lars say they know nothing about Irene
How and have no reason to say that she
is not conducting a legitimate business,
but say they believe such an institu
ton. If legitimately conducted, should
have the Endorsement of at least one re-
liable practitioner.
A bill, the substance of which was
given in this correspondence few days
ago. was introduced in the legislature
yesterday regulating the so-called ly-
ing-in hospitals in this city. This
is due to the fact that the
keepers of these places, in some instan-
ces, were trafficking in human flesh
selling babies for whatever price they
would bring. according to state of

Mona on a trial yesterday tore thru

her first trip, and when the rough spots
in the machinery wear off it is not un-
likely that the Mona will travel twenty
five miles an hour. This will make her
the fastest steam yacht that ever
foated. The Mona is pretty and she IS
luxurious. There is telephone service
that reaches every part OF the ship Mr..
Leeds, upon rising in the morning, can
talk with the captain or the engineer,
or he can inquire of the steward what
he may expect for breakfast. There Is
also a system OF hotair heating

NEW YORK POLICE SHAKEN UP,
Force in Tenderloin Precinct is En-
tireIv CHANGED.

ItFSty SndHSC0.
New York, Feb. 13.-Police Commits
sioner Greene did few things yester-
day. The tenderloin precinct, com
manded by Captain Miles O'Reilly. who
says that his cleaning UP efforts have
been thwarted by lack of support from
his men, got thorough shaking up.
Thirty-one patrolmen were transferred
from the precinct and scattered about
the city. Captain O'Reilly was also
ordered to change the posts OF the re-
manning men, which will have about
the same effect as a new force.
The detective bureau was also stirred
up. Three detective sergeants at
tached to the central office We're re-
manded to patrol duty and number
of patrolmen detailed to detective bur-
eau in the bureau We're sent to patrol.
Three detective sergeants were sent
over from Brooklyn to the Mulberry
street bureau and one was sent from
Mulberry street to the Brooklyn bur-
eau.
General Greene made no comments in
announcing the transfers other than
that Inspector Brooks had recommend
ed them, and that. he thought, was
sufficient.

Constantinople, Feb. 16.-In official

received from the powers assurances
regarding Bulgaria's pacific intentions.
and that it has been greatly relieved
thereby. AT the same time the tension
has not been relieved. The military
council has completed the plans for the
mobilization of the second and third

been current for several days to the eff
feet that owing to the difficulty of OBJ
tanning the consent of the other powers,
or for other reasons. the Austro-Hun-
garian demands of reforms in Macedo-
MIA have been greatly attenuated since
Count Lamsdorff drafted them. is prac
tically3 confirmed by the official Frem-
denblatt, which states that the demands
are carefully framed so as not to over
step the limits prescribed by respect for
the sultan's suzerainty rights, and that
being confined to comparatively modest
bounds, they are more likely to attain
the desired end than if they We're more
pretentious. They will not, however,
says the official organ, succeed If Mace
donia is made the theater of guerilla

1t is regarded here as certain that
these half reforms will not satisfy the
