Peruna cures catarrh permanently. It

length of time that it should take to effect
a cure.

COYOTE HAS MANY ENEMIEs.
Every Mans Hand Against the Pest
OF the Prairies.

The coyote has small chance for
life in the territories. 1t is hunted
upon all occasions and by devious and
sundry methods. AS the cowboys ca
reers along the plains he pops at it
with his six-shooter. The wise ranch
man has shotgun or rifle hanging in
a convenient place awaiting the ap-
pearance of coyote near the ranch
house. The hunter of more choice
game never misses shot at coyote.
while there are professionals who do
little else but pursue it from one
years end to another. Besides, there
are organized hunts inaugurated in
settled communities for both pleasure
and profit, when large scope of the
country is swept clean, and the coy
otes falling into the meshes of the
hunt are dispatched, and their skins
tanned for rugs and doormats.

The First Hanson Cab.

The hanson cab was the invention
of Joseph Hanson OF Birmingham
England. But the two-whceled cab
which he patented in 1884 little re
sembles the vehicle that now bears
his name. 1t had n square sedan
chair shaped body hung between two
wheels nearly eight feet high. The
drivers seat was in front. as also was
the door. The passenger entered the
cab between the wheel and the shaft.
The modern hanson was adapted
from this original.

Rail Laid in 1884 Still in Good state
Of Preservation.

OF Preservation.
A section of old English rail that
was rolled in Liverpool, Eng, in 1884,
and laid down on the roadbed of the
Boston & Lowell railroad in 1885, has
been presented to the railroad COM
missioners. In 1897 the section in
question was taken. from the yard in
Lowell and recently treated to a coat
of black paint and varnish and an in
scription in gold, giving its history,
placed upon the web. In addition to
the rail, there are three chairs, also
of English manufacture, which occupy
the same position they did when the
iron was laid. Although the metal
has been in service more than half a
century, it shows but little wear, and
would make fairly good rail to-day.
One of it's characteristics is the truss
ing of the under part between the
chairs.

Dead Stock
Possibilities

Saturday morning ! had 10 a. m.
appointment with Chicago man and
he had telephoned that he would be
an hour late. After debating in my
mind and waiting twenty minutes
decided to borrow paper and find a
desk and start this subject. After
writing a few words a man came in
and laid a package on the desk and be-
gan talking with man at nearby
desk. Thinking he used the desk 1
was at I left it and again sat down
on the callers couch by the elevator
door and before I had written a
minute there. my 10 a. m. man
walked IN at 1925. Now, I had
reasoned that as he had been de-
tanned beyond 10 a. m. he might be
released before IL a. m, and he was.
When he came in he politely explained
and as he had a man with him he said
he wodld see me in a moment. Soon
he came out and invited me into his
office. saying that he could give me a
half hour. 1t took us about fifteen
minutes to advance our subject a
step and make another appointment
for 10 a. m. Monday.
I got there seven minutes late that
morning, and he was much later. but

Strange History Of an Important
SenDOrt ON the German Coast.

On June 26 next the ancient and hourlshlhg

need of money borrowed from Duke Frederick
Francis 1 Of Observation-Disclosures a sum OF
over 81 900 OOO mortgaging to him by way OF
security the city and seaport Of Wisrnar which
Schwerin According to the terms of this agree
ment it was stipulated that the Kings of sweden
should have the right. during hundred years
from the date of its signature, to resume pos
session of Wismar on the repayment Of the
loan plus interest at the rate of 3 per cent per
annurn but that if the loan and the interest re-
mained unpaid for a hundred years from date
the ruler of Mecklenburg- -Schwerin should nave
the privilege on the expiration of that term, to
foreclose the mortgage and to assume full pos
session of Wismar It was further agreed by
this contract which figures in history as the
Treaty of Malmo, that while the ruler of Meek
Ienburg- -Schwerin should enjoy as ine hclder Oh
the mortgage all the sovereign rights and pre-
negatives over Wismar belonging to the Kings
of Sweden he should under no circumstances
avail himself thereof to either cede or even
lease the port to any other power, and that 10
attempt should be made to fortify it, or 10 con-
vert it into a naval stronghold.
Of course there has been party in SWEDEN
which, influenced by Russian agents, has clam
ored for the repayment Of the loan and the in
terest and for the resumption by the crown of
Sweden of its proprietary rights to Wismar, the
interest of Russia in the matter being so OBJ
vious as to need no further explanation.
But the more sensible portion Of the Swedish
people has realized that the German Empire as
New-York tribune., 1903-06-21

now constituted, could not and would not toi-
crate the re-establishment of foreign power
on German SOIL and moreover, appreciated the
fact that the Swedish treasury was in no cChdl-
ton to repay the loan plus the interest anouht-
ing to something like $50 100000 From imam
cial point of view, moreover. it would be d poor
investment of Swedish money, since Wismar
would be difficult for Sweden to hold IN the
event of any conflict with Germany, which
would seize it at the first outbreak OF hoStlties
without the slightest difficulty.
It is well known that the matter was discussed
some time ago by Emperor William and King
Oscar, who came to an agreement about the
matter, according to the terms of which SWe-
den would make attempt TO prevent the lore
closure of the mortgage by the now relgnlns
Grand Duke of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
1t is this agreement between the two soVer-
eigns which has been embodied in law pre-
sented to the Swedish legislature by the Ca5i-
net and which has just received parliamentary
sanction-a measure providing for the cession or
the Swedish city and seaport of Wismar and or
the island of Poel which commands the entrance
to the Bay of Wisnar, to the Grand Duke Of
Mecklenburg-S -Schwerin-
The Swedes. like the Germans, are disposed
to be sentimental. and the closing debate i'll the
Swedish Chambers took the form of species OF
elouuent farewell addresses TO Wismar. which in
past centuries played great role IN the
history of Sweden, the concluding speech Cf the
Minister Of Foreign Affairs being heard by the
entire house standing.
Germany will doubtless at once take advan-
tage of the establishment of its title to Wisnar
to fortify it. and it Will assuredly become ere
long quite as much of naval stronghold OF the
empire kiel
