DELEGATES ARRIVING
Members of American Forest
Congress in the City.
CALLED ON PRESIDENT
PUBLIC MEETING AT NATIONAL
THEATER THURSDAY.
Officers and Members Of the 0rganiza-
tion-Place Of Meeting Hand
somely Decorated.
CALLED ON PRESIDENT

Nearly two hundred distinguished dele
gates to the American forest congress,
which will hold four all-day business ses-
ported at the National Rifles Armory 920
G street northwest, at noon today, and it
is expected the number will exceed 400 by
this evening. The delegates are not coming
sngly, nor in most cases by twos and
threes but in large parties. The local Or
ganization is therefore confident that the
limit of 200, which was set as the size of
the congress last week. was too conserva-
tive an estimate. Nearly the full member
ship will doubtless be on hand when Sec
rotary Wilson Of the Department of Agri-
culture brings down his gavel at the open
ing business session at 10 o'clock tomorrow
morning.
All who were here met in the State, War
and Navy building at 1890 O'Clock this after
noon, and fifteen minutes later moved IN
line into the White House, behind the Old
est Inhabitants Association of the District
of Columbia, to shake hands with the Pres
ident.
The armory on G street, in which all of
the sessions are to be held, except the pub
lie meeting next Thursday afternoon. has
been tastefully and appropriately decorated
with palms. flags and forestry exhibits. In
each window large transparencies of typi-
cal forest scenes are displayed. At the
rear of the stage, surrounded with palms,
is large transparency of "Old Grizzly
the famous big tree of California. The
light from the rear windows shining
through this makes a beautiful effect. The
transparenc:es are a part of the bureau Of
forestry's exhibit at the worlds fair in st.
Louis.
The public meeting to be held at the New
National Theater Thursday afternoon next
promises to be an occasion Of unusual inter-
est. Many persons are sgnifying desire
to attend and hear the President and the
other prominent speakers. Admission will
be by card, and applications therefor should
be sent to H. w. Hall. chairman of the
committee on arrangements, at the Allan
tic building.

Army Service for Women.

A military man, writing for the
Washington Post, says that Emperor
William of Germany has devised a
most remarkable scheme. of profound
interest to women throughout the civ.
ilized world. the ultimate aim of which
is nothing more nor less than render
ing the fair sex liable to compulsory
service in the army. True, he does
not propose that they should swell the
ranks of his mounted body of Amazons
which he is alone among European
sovereigns to possess; nor does he in.
tend that they should be called upon
to shoulder the rife, to WELD the sa.
ber, or to serve the guns. But he has
in view the fulfllment of those partic.
ular duties in connection with the non.
combatant departments Of the army
such as. for instance. hospital work
clerical work, the preparation of sup.
plies, etc. for all of which training.
to be furnished by the government, is
required.

A FELLOW FEELING.
Why She Felt Lcnient Towards the
Orunkard.

A great deal depends on the point OF
view. A good temperance woman was
led. in very peculiar way, to revise
her somewhat harsh judgment of the
poor devil who cannot resist his cups
and she is now the more charitable.
She writes:
For many years l was great suf-
ferer from asthma. Finally my health
got SO poor that found l could not lie
down. but walked the floor whilst 9th
ers slept. | got SO nervous | could not
rest anywhere.
Specialists told me l must give up
the use of coffee-the main thing that
l always thought gave me some relief.
! consulted our family physician, and
he. being coffee fiend himself. told
me to pay no attention to their ad-
vice. Coffee had such charm for me
that in passing a restaurant and get
ting a Whit of the fragrance | could
not resist cup. | felt very lenient
towards the drunkard who could not
pass the saloon. Friends often urged
me to try Postum. but l turned deaf
ear, saying, That may do for people to
whom coffee is harmful but not for
me-coffee and will never part
AT last, however. bought a pack
age of Postum, although was sure
could not drink it. l prepared 1t as
directed, and served it for breakfast.
Well. bitter as l was against IL.
must say that never before had
tasted more delicious cup of coffee. .
From that day to this (more than two
years) l have never had a desire for
the old coffee. My health soon re-
turned; the asthma disappeared, be-
gan to sleep well and in a short time
| gained 20 pounds in weight.
"One day | handed my physician
the tablets he had prescribed for me,
telling him had no use for them. He
stayed for dinner. When passed him
his COZ. ee cup he remarked: I am glad
to see you were sensible enough not
to let yourself be persuaded that coffee
was harmful. This is the best cup Of
coffee l ever drank he continued; !;
the trouble is so few people know
how to make good coffee When he
got his second cup l told him he was
drinking Postum. He was incredu-
lous. but I convinced him, and now he
uses nothing but Postum In his home
and has greatly improved in health"

Tho Remedy That Makes New Blood
Eanisles Weakness, Headaches, In
digestion and Nervous Troubles.
Hundreds of women suffer from head
aches, dizziness, restlessness, languor
and timidity. Few realize that their
misery all comes from the bad state of
their blood. They take one thing for
their head, another for their stomach,
a third for their nerves, and yet all the
while it is simply their poor blood that
is the cause of their discomfort.
If one sure remedy for making good,
rich blood We're used every one of their
distressing ailments would disappear, as
they did in the case of Mrs. Ella Il.
Stone, who had been ailing for years and
was completely run down before she re-
allied the nature of her trouble
"For several years, said Mrs. Stone,
:" I suffered from general debility 1t
began about 1896 with indigestion, ner-
vousness and steady headaches. Up to
1900 hadn't been able to find any relief
from this condition. i was then very
thin and bloodless. An enthusiastic
friend, who had used DR. Williams Pink
Pills, urged me to give them n trial and
/ finally bought box.
!" 1 did not notice any marked change
from the use of the first box, but de-
terlnined to give them n fair trial and l
kept on. When l had finished the
second box l could see very decided signs
of improvement i'll my condition. / be-
gan to feel better all over and to have
hopes of a complete cure.
81 used i'll all eight or ten boxes, and
when 1 stopped l had got back my regu-
lar weight and a good healthy color and
the gain has lasted. I can eat what
please without discomfort. My nervous
ness is entirely gone, and, while ] had
constant headaches before, l very rarely
have one now. 1 cheerfully recommend
DIR. Williams Pink Pills to women who
suffer as l did"
Mrs. Stone was seen at her pretty
home iii Lakewood, r. L., where, as the
result of her experience, DR.. Williams
Pink Pills are very popular. These ia
mons pills are sold by all druggists. A

"A military member of the inaugura-

COLUMBUS DAY.
Italians Would Make 1t Legal Holi-
day in Colorado.

House Bill No. Go, by Mr.. Bromley,
might be entitled "A Bill for an Act to
Remind the People of Colorado" 1t is
a request bill, introduced at the So
licitation of Mr.. Angelo Noce, speaking
for large number of his countrymen.
The bill provides that October 18th of
each year hereafter shall be a legal
holiday, to be known as Columbus Day
and observed as legal holiday.
This has long been a dream of Mr..
Noce and the leading spirits among the
Italian, people in Colorado, who under
took once to raise o statue to the mem
DRY of the great Genoese. Denver, as
usual, was Indifferent. but Pueblo
made an attempt to respond and mas
sive base for such statue was set up
and still awaits the coming of its
crown. A Genoese also, though for
many years an American citizen and
for twenty-four years resident of
Colorado, Mr.. Noce has hit upon hap,
py way of commemorating the mem
DRY of Columbus. The fact that the bill
was introduced, Friday the 18th,
which would seem fairly inviting the
wrath of fate. will not affect it, as CO.

The Russian Peasant.

The Rev. DR.. George Washburn. who
lived in Constantinople for forty-si.
years and has just retired from the
presidency of Roberts College. has
Travelled much in Russia and made a
close study of the Russian peasant.
To the casual observer the moujik iD
uncouth and unintercsting. but he is.
in Dr. WashDurn's opinion. the most
interesting peasant in all Europe. In
religion he is an idealist. He has little
knowledge OF the scriptures. although
the Russian government favOrs their
circulation. but when he studies the
Bible. the teaching OF the brotherhood
OF man is that which most appeals to
him. In many instances this ideal
teaching has been followed to whn.
would in this country be considered
absurd lengths.
The peasants believe most thor
oughly in their religion, and carry tina,
belief to the extreme that they con
slider the Russian orthodox church the
only true Christian faith. Il Is argued
by them that the Christian religion
was first given to the Latin races, but
those races failed to extend Il through
ont the world. Then the Germanic
races received the mission. but they
too. in Russian opinion. have failed.
Now. it is held. the time is ripe for the
Slavonic races to take up tie work
and the true Slav confidently expects
that in order to carry out the mission
it will be his duty to conquer all Eu-
rope.
