GIFT TO COL. HEPBURN.
Silver Loving Cup Presented by His
Associates.

The session of the House committee on
interstate and foreign commerce today pre-
scented a striking contrast to the strenuous
daily meetings of the past few weeks when
knotty problems Of rate legislation were
being wrestled with. The session was pre-
sided over by Representative Mann GILL;
chairman of the subcommittee on light
houses and dams. He at once yielded the
floor to Mr.. Wagner (Pa.), who, with an
appropriate speech, presented Chairman w.
P. Hepburn of Iowa with a three-handled
silver gold lined loving cup, standing, with
base, fourteen inches inch.
AS this speech was being made Speaker
Cannon came into the room and afterward
added his testimony to the general express
sion of praise and cordially.
Messrs. Adamson (Ga.) and Davey QAa.)
seconded these sentiments on the part of
the minority. The cup is a remembrance
of the recent Panama trip of the committee
and expressive of the sentiment of the
committee as to Col Hepburn's presiding
qualities during the recent rate legislation
campaign. Mr.. Lowering, who did not go
with the committee to Panama, voiced his
sentiments also.
The remarks of Col. Hepburn in accept
ing the cup indicated his deep feeling of APP
probation and gratitude.

The Value of Charcoal.
FEW PEOPLE KNOW HOW USEFUL IT is |,
PRESERVING u

FEW PEOPLE KNOW HOW USEFUL IT is IN
PRESERVING HEALTH AND BEAUTY
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is the SAT-
est and most efficient disiDfectant and purifier In
nature. but few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same cleansing pur-
pose.
Charcoal is remedy that the more you take
of 1t the better; 1t is not drug at all, but simply
absorbs the gases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and carries them
out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking.
drinking or after eating onions and other odorous
vegetables.
Charcoal effeetuaIly clears and improves the COM
pexion, 1t whitens the teeth and further acts as
natural and eminently safe eathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which collect in
TIE stomach and bowels; 1t disinfects the mouth
and throat from the poison OF catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal In one form or an,
other, but probably the best charcoal and the most
for the money is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges;
they are composed of the finest powdered Willow
charcoal and other harmless antiseptics In tablet
FORM rather in the form of large, pleasant tast.
ing lozenges the charcoal being mixed with honey.
The daily of these iozenges will tell in
a much-improved condition Of the general health
better complexion, sweeter breath and purer blood,
and the beauty of 1t is. that possible harm can
result from their continued use, but ON the
trary, great benefit.
A Buffalo physician In speaking Of the benefits
Of charcoal says: Il advise Stuarts Charcoal Loz-
enges to all patients suffering from gas In stomach
and bowels and to clear the complexion and purify
the breath, mouth and throat; 1 also believe tho
liver greatly benefited by the daily use Of them:
they cost but twenty i've cents a boz at drug
stores, and although in sense patent prep.
Aration, yet believe get more and better char,
coal In Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges than in any Of
the ordinary charcoal tablets.'

TRANS-PACIFIC MAILS.
Bids Will Be Invited by the Post Of
fee Department.

Postmaster General Wynne has decided
to invite bids for carrying the mails from
San Francisco to the Island of Tahiti, and
the contract to be entered into will pro-
vide that the steamers used for the service
must conform in construction to plans ap-
proved by the Navy Department, so that
they may be taken by the United States as
cruisers in case of war.
The service is now performed at an an
nual compensation of $4,000 by the Oceanic
Steamship Company, under O provision of
law specifically naming that company and
its pay. The law was modified recently
and under that modification the department
is enabled to sask for competition instead
of being restricted to one specific line The
bids will be invited under the terms of an
act of March 3, 1891. Tahiti is APP miles
southwest from San Francisco.
