quest, Captain Van Schaick, was
wheeled into court in an invalid chair
this morning, under the care of two
surgeons. The aged officer looked hag-
gard and worn. He stated that he had
been a steamboat man for 40 years,
holding a masters license at 30. He
declared he had nothing to do with
purchasing the equipment of the Slo-
cum when 1t was first placed in com
mission Since 1891 he admitted that
he had general supervision of the
boat. He confirmed the statements
of other witnesses that no new life
preservers were purchased for the
Slocum since 1896 From time to time
he had rejected 200 preservers. So
far as he knew none of the officials of
the company every inspected the life
saving or fire-fghting apparatus. Re-
garding the inspection by the states
inspectors, the captain said that but
few preservers were ever taken from
the racks No water test was made.

drills, and water had been run
through the stand pipes. This testl-
mony was in direct opposition to that
of other members of the crew, who
said there had been no fire drills this
year.

FROM THE ASHES.
Baltimore Family's Experience Points
a Moral to Residents Of Marshall

town.
The visitor to Baltimore today
scarcely realizes that less than year
ago the city was almost destroyed by
memorable fire. A similar compar-
ison might be made by George W.
Nally, one OF the leading citizens Of
Baltimore as to the change In his own
looks.
A short time ago, Mr.. Nally. writ
ing from his home address, 2213 Bar
clay street, says: II have been troubled
for years with catarrh and had resort
ed to all remedies that could be
thought Of. My wife was also afflict-
ed with this terrible disease. but all
the treatments we used were an abb
solute failure until we tried Hyomei.
1t worked like a charm and has made
a complete cure in both OF our cases.
There is no disagreeable stomach
dosing in using Hyomei. We breath
ed 1t, and It's fragrance so clean. pure
and bracing. killed all the catarrhal
germs in the head, throat and lungs.
The experience of Mr.. Nally and his
wife certainly points moral to all
readers of the Times Republican who
are suffering from catarrh. 1t shows
how they can be cured OF this fright
full disease, without dangerous stomach
dosing. Mcbride & Will, the local
agents for Hyomei have SO much faith
in the treatment that they give their
personal guarantee to refund the mon
ey in case it does not benet A COM
plete outfit costs one dollar, the extra
bottles are but fifty cents. Ask to see
the strong guarantee under which Hy-
omei Is sold.

when the Directors, Heads Of Depart
ments and Employees met together ac-
cording to their time honored custom,
to exchange Fluctuations over the COM
pleton of another successful year OF
kindly fellowfeeling and harmonious
working together. Mr.. Thomas Doltber,
President and Treasurer of the Conlpa-
ny, read Thanksgiving Proclamation OF
the President Of the United States ana
that OF the Governor Of Massachusetts,
then. in behalf of the Directors, ne eX-
pressed his appreciation Of the en-
poyes' work during the past ~
months. He said that the increase in
the business had been large and even
beyond the expectation of the most
sangulne that all records had been
broken and that he was much gratfied
with the results attained. He thanked
all for their hearty cooperation in pro-
ducing these results.
At the close of his remarks, Mr.. Doll

"a Desperate Chance

A sensational melo-drama, "A Des-
perate Chance" was the Odeons bill
Wednesday night and was presented
before good-sized upstairs house. The
play is Il strong as IL blood and thun-
der melodrama, the sort that appeals
to certain class as does no other
variety of stage pictures. "A Desper-
ate Chance" is founded on the Pitts
burg Jail delivery of a few years ago,
when Ed and Jack Biddle secured their
release from Jail by the aid of the
sherffs wife. The piece is filled with
sensational scenes, and the fall Of
Port Arthur will not rival in the waste
of black powder the quantity used In
the exchange of shots between the
desperadoes and the sheriffs posse.
