PADDLEWHEEL
BEGAN TO MOVE.
Firemen Of the Warren Had
Climbed on II to Make
Rope Fast.

Yesterday when the ferryboat War
reu was to make her l2;25 O'Clock trip
from this city to Tottenville, Chief
Engineer John Mcdonald discovered
that the engine was ON the center and
refused to move. The crew was
called together and Fireman Patsy
McGrath, of this city. was instructed
to get in on the big paddle wheel on
the right side and tie rope to one
OF the paddles in such Il way that the
crew could pull the wheel around, if
possible.
The fireman was busy tying the rope
when the engineer managed to start
the engine and slowly the big paddle
wheels began to rcvolvc. When the
fireman discovered that the wheel on
which he was mt work was moving he
called to the engineer to stop and the
power was shut oil just in time to
save the fireman ducking. 1t was
with some difficulty that he was res
cued from his perilous position.

The Pamir, or Bam-i-Douniah, is com-

From it radiate the mighty chains of the
Than Shan, of the Kuen Lun, of the
Kara Korum. of the Himalaya, of the
Hindoo Koosh. This geographic system,
four hundred kilometers across, which
remained for so many years an impassa-
BILE barrier. has been surmounted by Rus
sian tenacity. The ;slav race and the
yellow race have come into contact.
The travellers of the Aryan people have
all attempted to explore the plateau of
the Pamir. Without going back to
Marco Polo in the thirteenth century,
what do we find? The English with For

message President Roosevelt will rec
omnend that the balance of S22,OO0,oOO
due this country from China as In
demnity for the Boxer outrages be re-
leased from payment on condition that
China devote the money to education.
The claims for American missionary
property destroyed, amounting to ST.
100000, have been satisfied, and the
cost of our expedition to Pekin was not
over $1,000,0 600. An award Of $780,
100000 indemnity to the United States
was felt to be excessive, though MT
larger in proportion than the amount
agreed on for the other nations that
marched to the relief or foreigners in
Pekin. But the idea of taking the
amount awarded is distasteful to this
country for several reasons 1t is far
too much, under the circumstances,
and China's helpleSsness appeals to
sympathy. The plight OF the immense
Chinese empire eXCiteS compassion. Its
territory is a battle ground for other
nations, and the neutrality of its har-
bors is violated by belligerents. Nom
resistance is q terribly poor national
policy. On the part Of the United
States there is a sincere wish that
China may be able to claim a place
among nations in when it can not be
wantonly imposed upon. To hand the
$40, 100000 to China without conditions
might be construed as a criticism on
the countries that take all the indemn-
ity awarded them. But China can ac-
cept u share as a gift to an object
which 1t holds in high esteem, that of
education. Americans do not want the
money as a windfall. They wish for
China better times and national Sc
curity, a position in the world where 1t
can respect itself and command the re-
spect OF others. The REIMBURSEMENT

From the United States Census Bu-
reau has recently come the report OF
the first complete census Of the Phil
ippine Islands. Nearly eight thousand
people were employed in gathering the
statistics, and all but 125 Of them
were native F~ilipinos. This census,
therefore, is the first in modern times
which a tropical people have made of
themselves. Many interesting facts
were disclosed by the canvass of the
islands. In the first place, it was
found that the population numbered
100000; that near 100000 possessed
some degree Of civilization and pro.
fessed the Christian religion. 1t was
also discovered that almost the whole
population live in villages, as there
are nearly 14,OOO villages with an av.
erage population Of 500. OF the larger
towns, 35 have 5000 population eachl
| four have 10000; and Manila has 220,.
600. The people wv the houses, or
"huts," in which they live-only 9
per cent Of the houses are rented

About 1000 children are enrolled in
the schools, and they are said to be
eager to learn. The nlght-schools In
Manila, 81 in number, have an enrol
ment Of more than 1000 adults who
are studying English.

PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST
GERMS.
People With Weak Stomachs Tlost
Liable to Catch Disease.

When the stomach and digestive
organs are weak, the food does not di-
gest, and there is a sour, slimy, ferment-
ing mass, making it an ideal spot for the
disease germs to multiply. The only
way to protect yourself against disease
germs is to strengthen the stomach and
digestive organs, and Mi.o-na is the only
agent, so far as is known, that will ac-
compish this.
The ordinary medicine that is taken
lor Indigestion and stomach troubles is
advertised to act upon the food alone and
hence can no more than temporary re
licye. Mona is certain cure in all
cases Of stomach troubles, excepting can
cer because it enables the stomach and
digestive organs to act in the way nature
intended they should. Drugs cannot di
gest the food; they simply decompose it
If you suffer with distress after eating
pains in the head, chest, sides and back,
belching of gases and undigested food,
bad taste in the mouth, dizziness, or
vertigo, heartburn, variable appetite, sick
headaches, spots before the eyes, and
have general feeling Of dependency,
weakness, and debility you should at once
strengthen the stomach and digestive sys-
tenn by the use OF Mi-o-na. There is no
liquid, no alcohol, no spoonful doses with
Mi-o-na. Just one simple tablet out of
fifty cent box before eating and your
stomach will soon become so strong and
healthy that you will be germ proof.
Ask L. Taggart to show you the guar.
antee under which he sells Mi-o-na; costs
nothing unless it cures.

That North Carolina has many hui
morists whose facetious remarks are
passed unnoticed, so far as the publi-
cation of such is concerned is, evident
from the fact that there are men in
this section, whose wit and humor
would do credit to any periodical in
the country. Randall Davis is one of
them. He lives at Hunting Quarters,
and it is said that he is so funny that
only a grinning mummy would fail to
laugh at some of his remarks. RAN
dali took a trip to the mountains of
North Carolina and while he was
crossing some of the mountains over
the railway which radiates the peaks
in the vicinity of Round Knob he
looked down on the tops of the trees
below and said:
my goodness, If this train were to
run off the track it never would stop
until it got to Hunting Quarters" AS
Hunting Quarters is a place in this
portion of the State the factiousness
of his remark may be greatly appre-
ciated.
