Kustenji, Roumania, July 8.-The
mutinOus crews Of the Kniaz POtem-
kline and its cOnSOrt, the rebel tor
pedO boat, have surrendered to the
ROumanian authorities, have been
landed and are now being dispatch
ed in small parties to different places
in ROumanIa. The ROumanian au-
thOTities have taken the breech locks
Of the guns The formal surrender
Of the mutinOus crews occurred at 1
o'clock this afternoon after a series
Of discussions and negotiations be
tween the ROUmanian authorities and
the leaders Of the mutineers.
The ROumanian officers who
boarded the battleshIp on its arrival
here called upon the crew to surren-
der and promised that they would be
treated as foreign deserters. Other
wise they would be forced to leave
the port forthwith. Z speedily be-
came apparent that the Russian YES
sells had returned to this port with
the intention Of giving themselves
up TO a foreign SO yernment- The
crews soon announced their accept
ance Of the Roumanian terms. The
mutineers wanted to take on the
treasure which was on board the
Kniaz POtemkIne, but the authori-
ties declined to acquiesce.
Sailors to Be Liberated.
The Russians will gradually be
conveyed to any frontier they may
select and will then be liberated. The
local officials have given an under
standing to this effect. The Rouma-
Man flag has been hOisted over the
Russian war vessels as well as the
Russian flag so as to prevent any at
tack on them in ROUmanian waters
by the vessels OF the Russian squad
ron which are reported to be in pur-
suit Of the mutineers.
The return Of the rebel battle ship
to Kustenji was a complete surprise
to the Russian admiralty, as they
were convinced that the mutineers
were heading for LiYadia, Batoum or
POh- The naval authorities conjec-
ture that large part Of the crew Of
the Kniaz POtemkine would rather
take advantage Of Roumania's offer
Of treatment as deserters and thereby
escape punishment for their conduct
than cast in their lot with the revolu-
tiOnists in the Caucasus.
The mutineers say they want to
give the battle ship to the ROuman-
ian government, as they are anxious
that il shall not be handed over to

RAW OPIUM FROM THE POPPY.

shades, AID then are heated over n
slow IRE and formed into thin cakes.
10 be used for the covering OF the
drug when collected.
The piercing OF the pods requires
great skill. and upon II largely de-
ponds the yield. The opium farmer
and his assistants each carry q small
lancelike tool. which has three or four
short. sharp prongs. and with this n
half dozen perpendicular cuts are
made In each capsule or seed pod OF
the poppy. The juice begins 10 flow

day after. the thickened juice IN care

a small iron trowel. and the mass
thus gathered Ia put into an earthern
vessel and kept carefully stirred for
a month or more. great care being
taken TO have Il well aired, but not
exposed TO the sun.
The material Is now examined by
expert testers. who determine Its
grade or quality. and then the whole
IL put into a large box. where Il Is

required consistency. The opium IL
now made into balls for export. The
natives wade about In the large watts
containing the paste like drug and
hand Il ont To hundreds OF ballmakers
sitting around the room. Every man
has n spherical brass cup. lined with
the poppy flower petals, before him.
Into this Is pressed the regulation
quantity of opium. From this brass
cup, when properly pressed. the
opium bali is transferred to another
man. who gives Il a coating OF clay.
This gives the drug. when ready for
shipment, the appearance OF a fair
sized cannon ball.
When well prepared In this manner,
opium will keep its properties for hf-
teen years or more. Before Il can be
used. the opium balls have TO be
broken up and further treated.

STRANGER THAN FICTION.
Remedy Which Has RevOlutiOnized
the Treatment of Stomach
Troubles

The remedy is not heralded as a
wonderful discovery nor yet a secret
patent medicine, neither is it claimed
to cure anything except dyspepsia, in
digestion and stomach troubles with
which nine out of ten suffer.
The remedy is in the form of pleas
ant tasting tablets or loZenges, con-
tanning vegetable and fruit essences,
pure aseptic pepsin government
tesD, golden seal and diastase. The
tablets are sold by druggists under
the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets. Many interesting experiments
to test the digestive power of Stuart's
Tablets show that one grain of the
active principle contained in them is
sufficient to thoroughly digest 5000
grains of raw meat, eggs and other
wholesome food.
Stuart's Tablets do not act upon the
bowels like after-d dinner pills and
cheap cathartics, which simply
irritate and infiame the intestines
without having any effect whatever in
digesting food or curing indigestion.
If the stomach can be rested and
assisted in the work of digestion it
will very soon recover its normal
vigor, as no organ is so much abused
and overworked as the stomach
i
secret. Of the remarkable success of
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, a remedy
practically unknown a few years ago
and now the most widely known of
any treatment for somach weakness.
This success has been secured en-
tirely upon it's merits as a digestive
pure and simple, because there can
be no stomach trouble if the food is
promptly digested.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets act en-
tirely on the food eaten, digesting il
completely, so that it can be assimi-
lated into blood nerve and tissue
They cure dyspepsia, water brash.
sour stomach, gas and bloating after
meals, because they furnish the diges-
tive power which weak stomachs
lack and unless that lack is supplied
it is useless to attemp to cure by the
use of 'tonics,' pills and cathartics
which have absolutely no digestive
power.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be
found at all drug stores and the regu-
lar use of one or two of them after
meals will demonstrate their merit
better than any other argument
