big convention of negro preachers at
Union last week, and 1t was under
stood that Rev. Carroll was TO venti-
late the matter. "I'n put bullet
through you If you repeat the charges
said a big negro; but this threat had
no effect on Carroll. He repeated from
the floor of the convention hall what
he had said in the papers and the
gathering was thrown into a frenzy OF
excitement Name 'em, name en-
said a big negro defiantly. You are
one" quietly replied Carroll. Am
one. too?" inquired another negro IN
a "say-it-if-you- dare" tone and car
roll said yes. Then Carroll drew paper
\ from his pocket and began to read the
names Of the accused. He continued

until from all parts of the hall there
arose shouts of Don't read any

excitedly, the convention adopted res
olutions setting forth that while
there were some bad ones among the
preachers, as a whole the body COM
pared favorably with any other SINH
lar body anywhere.

HAS FEW TRADE FACILITIES
Mobile Merchant Experiences Difi- culties in Getting Goods to Cap
 ital of Guatemala.

A Mobile merchant sold some cotton goods not long ago to be delivered at Guatemala City, Within 300 feet of his warehouse steamer was loading for Puerto Barrios, whence runs railway to within 60 miles of the Guatamalan capital To reach the latter the goods would have to be packed over the noun tains by Indians or on muleback. The merchant found 1t cheaper to ship by way of San Francisco, thence by boat to San Jose, Guatamaia, and to the cap ital by rail. New Orleans, terminus of the Southern Pacific. is almost next door to Mobile. New York, however, en- ioyed cheaper rate because there was competition with the routes across the Atlantic and thence round Cape Horn. So the goods were sent by boat to New York, thence by boat back to New Or leans, and thence on their way, going nearly 10000 miles instead of HOO by the Puerto Barrios route. This inabil- lty to get at the west coast markets has done much to keep American goods out If them Guatamaia has now arranged for the speedy completion of the rail- way from the Caribbean to the capital. and a cheap direct route. will thus be opened.

TO AUCTION QUEENS GOODS
All Furniture and Treasures of 1sa- bella of Spain Except Personal
 Jewels to Go Under Hammer.

It has been decided that the personal jewels of the late Queen Isabella of Spain. who for many years lived in Paris. will not be sold as expected. The casket containing the precious stones, necklaces, etc., has been pro- visionally deposited at 8 bank, and as soon as the affairs of the late queen are cleared up and the contents of her pal ace disposed of the Comte Quiaqui, who has charge of all these matters, will distribute the jewels among the -oyal family of Spain.
 On the other hand, the furniture, ob- ;ects of art and all the other treasures in the Palais de Castillo, Queen Isa- bella's home in the Avenue Kleber, op- posite the United States embassy, will be sold at public auction.
 The Marquis de Cuellar has gone to San Sebastian to consult King Alfon- so's wishes on the subject and the auc- .ion will probably take place early in .he autumn. The catalogue is being prepared.
 It is we'll known that the contents Of the Palais de Castillo are marvels of beauty and worth and constitute veri- table museum Several offers have been made for the palace itself and the surrounding gardens, but nothing def- nite has yet been accepted. The estate covers 4.6OO square yards of land. valued at $160 to $2o0 yard.

MiLE-A-MINUTE WATER RIDE
Motor Boat Invented by Frenchman Goes at Express Train
 Speed.

Among the many interesting experi- ments with motor boats, says the Lon don Mail, perhaps the most pictur- esque were those on the Seine at Futeaux, when Compte de Lambert. in conjunction with Messrs. De Dion and Bouton, brought out their bateau glisseur, or gliding boat. It is also called a hydroplane, and that name is really indicative of its construction.
 With a De Dion 14-horse power mo- tor, the count attained a speed of 28 kilometers an hour in his first ex- perimepts, and now he has added to that speed and has made 32 kilome- ters, or 20 miles, in the hour.
 The inventor of this hydroplane is not, however, content with this, and will try in day CT two to raise the speed to 35 or even 40 kilometers, or 25 miles an hour. or a speed that Is not exceeded by the use of 40-horse power motor.
 The boat itself is 36 feet long and nine feet wide. To the bottom of the boat are affixed five planes or fins. When the boat is stationary these fins hang vertically in the water. They are hinged, however. and are all under control of the driver. When the mo- tor is set in motion and the boat begins to move these planes, begin ming at the bow, are gradually given 9 backward angle. The boat rises in the water and then gradually rests upon it, with the stern of the boat only immersed. The speed increases. and the boat, following the inclination of the planes. glides along the surface of the water just as an aeroplane g1ides on the air, and with not much more resistance.
 It is confidently expected that with an increased horsepower motor tas hydroplane will reach a speed of 50 miles an hour.

Starting "Run" on Bank.

While a woman was waiting to de- posit five dollars in a New England savings bank she saw man draw out $900. She had never before seen 60 much money at once, and concluded that the bank could not stand such a heavy drain on it's resources. She told her friends about it, and the news spread that the bank was in danger. A run" followed, and the depositors were not satisfied that the bank was sound until between ten and twenty thousand dollars had been withdrawn. The men who read this paragraph need not say that the thing would not have happened if it had not been for silly woman. F'ull-grown men. with years of business experience, do just as silly things when they get frightened about losing their money.-Youth's COmpan. ion.

Prevent
 As We'll As Cure Headache

If subject to headache, take Dr. Miles Anti-P ain Pills when you feel the first indication of an attack, and you will find that they rarely ever fail to stop further progress.
 Pain weakens the nerves, and the longer you suffer, the more frequent will be the attacks.
 On the contrary, if the nerves are relieved of this weakening influence, the at tacks will be less frequent, and finally disappear altogether.
 Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills contain no opium, cocaine, mor- phine or chloral in any form. They are absolutely harmless if taken as directed, and will have no other effect, except to drive out the pain.
 ''Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills are all right, and l can recommend them to any one in need of a remedy for head ache, neuralgia. or pain of any kind. My health is not very good. and I am subject, to frequent attacks of severe headache, but since I began taking Dr.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills I do not suffer from that trouble as I used to. They never fail to give relief in few minutes, and if taken promptly on the approach of headache will prevent an attack from coming on. Pain Pills prevent, as well as cure.'
