Couldn't Remove Cavity.

(From The Philadelphia Ledger.) J
A certain Philadelphia, who
is at once minister oft he gospel
and registered physician, had
an amusing experience in his at.
tempt to corner Christian Sci
enlist.
Every time they met this sci
enlist took occasion to scofr at
medical science and to dwell up
on the wonders that c. u be per
formed through faith.
"YOu are convinced that.
through faith, you can do any,
thing" said the medical man one
day
Eyes" he replied, "faith will
move mountains"
A week later he was in the
doctors O1flCe with a swollen law q,
due to toothache,
"What! You here?" the doctor
exclaimed with feigned astonish-
ment.
"Oh DOCTOR" he said, 81 have
suffered agony all through the
night. | simply can't stand this
pain any longer"
"Have you tried faith?" the
physician asked him, "You know
you told me faith could move
mountains.
"But this is a cavity. DOCTOR"

Held For Mutiny.

San Juan, Puerto Rico, March
6.-The United States lighthouse
tender Nina, the sailors of which
recently were charged with mu
tiny, has sailed for Pensacola for
repairs, manned by a crew from
the gunboat Gloucester. The
members of the crew of the Nina,
who were arrested for mutiny,
have been discharged and several
of them will remain here to
swear complaint against Capt.
VIM. G. Cutler for false imprison-
ment.
The prisoners say they were
shanghaied in New York last
April and that when they recent
ly signed what they believed was
the payroll they learned that
they had unwittingly contracted
for service on the Nina for a
year.

Evolution i'm China

There are reports of Nihilist
conspiracies against the czar on
the part Of the several thousand
Russian students in Paris. At
a large meeting of students the
other day at which revolution
arv utterances were made, four
persons, supposed to be spies,
were caught and would scarcely
have escaped with their lives
but for the interference Of the
police. For a number Of years
the Nihilists have been quies-
cent-whether through the re-
pressive measures of the gov
ernment or the more sensible
views of reformers; but Russia
IS always on the brink of some
social or political crater and
any untoward event may cause
an eruption.
This is one of the chief me-
naces to which Russia is sub
jected during her present war
with Japan. Whether success
full or unsuccessful in Manchu
ria, Russia cannot suffer in the
east and will hardly be attacked
by her rivals in the west; but
the empire embraces so many
diverse and discontented ele
elements that if it emerges from
war without intestine troubles
it will be fortunate. The Rus
sian government is an anomaly
in this age and generation. All
other civilized countries have a
constitution of some kind and a
representative government, but
the White Gar is still the auto
crat of all the Russians, and his
word is absolutely law from the
Niemen river to Behring straits
This form of government is in
itself an evidence of semi-bar-
barism, and Russia cannot be
admitted fully into Christendom
until some changes are wrought
The abolition of the censorship
of the foreign press just decreed
by the car is long step for
ward, and the end of the pres.
enr war may find Russia ready
to make still further changes in
her government The State.

Work of Miss Clara Barrett

Member Of the Old Com

The portrait of Gen. Micah

members of which express their
satisfac ton. Col. Asbury Cow
ard, superintendent of the Cita-
del academy, expressed his op;n
ion of the work in the following
language:
"Having had an opportunity

ing that think it faithful COPY

ped for. The texture of the
work is excellent. In my judg-
ment the work should be accept
ed as satisfactory"
81 think Miss Strait has exc
cuted a fine portrait, worthy of
the subject in whose honor she
has worked with loving devotion,
as | understand her father was
friend and comrade of General
Jenkins; and the thanks of every
survivor of that gallant command
are due to the gifted young artist
for the excellent portraiture she
has produced" writes Col. Jas A.

jority with reference to suggested tar
if legislation said:
at will take the gathering of the
clans this time to tell what will be
done. We have elected a good many
new members of the house. This
means that it will be necessary to
find out what the sentiment of the
house is on tariff revision before we
can tell what will be done. The presi-
dent and the party were not embroiled
in a tariff debate and both are at
liberty to revise the tariff along lib
eral and sane lines. or if there should
be no tariff legislation. no violation
of pledges would occur.
1.-The session will be devoted to the
appropriation bills, but little else will
be done in the way of legislation
am inclined to think there will not be
an extra session of the Fifty-ninth
congress, either for the consideration
of the tariff or of any other matters
of legislation. One of the first things
we will have to do will be to get used
to our big majority in the house and

Damages

Hull, England, Nov. 1S.-The board
of trade inquiry into the actual oc-
currences off Dogger'S bank October
%, closed with yesterdays session and
the mmissioners will report to the
board of trade on the subject as
speedily as possible
At the opening of today's session
the commissioners and others paid
high tributes to the gallantry of the
members of the fishing fleet DR..
Woodhouse, representing the Russian
government, said he would like to say
in behalf of those he represented how
much they regretted what had oc-
Cured and he agreed with the re
marks concerning the bravery of the
fishermen. 1t would give him the
greatest pleasure to convey the pur-
port of those remarks to the Russian
government.
The court then heard evidence re-
garding the financial circumstances of
the killed and injured fishermen and
those dependent on them and claims
were put in. Among those Skipper
Whelpton of the Mino claimed $3.50
for injuries to his health and shock
to his nervous system and $2,500 for
saving the Mino when she was un-
seaworthy- The skipper of the Gull
claimed $3.50 for injury to his health
and $4,000 for saving the lives of
the crew of the Crane. Others claimed
from $3.50 to $500.
