To the list of cures-air, water, milk and grape-the Gaulois adds the 'si- lence cure" for those who are compel led to do much talking or to bear with much noise. Mime. Jeanne Giraud, h. spector of the Maternity Schools, of Paris, has, in her instructions to the teachers, recommended to them this treatment: There is too much noise and talking going on in our schools" ," she writes.

A discovery is said to have been made by chemist and engineer of St. Etienne, by which the color may be taken out of silk, and it may be recolor- ed in any desirable tint, without in any way injuring its texture. The article goes on to state that in case the in- ventor can do what he promises 1t will almost revolutionize the silk industry, and entirely do away with the danger of injuring silks through coloring by means of too strong chemicals.

Elliott & Morrill,, proprietors
of the new hotel, The Morrill,,

new furniture placed in the spa
cious building. MIR. Pratt from
st. Paul, an up-to-date furniture
dealer, is here experimenting the
unloading OF the furniture and
placing OF it in the rooms. 1t re-
quires SIT, 900 worth Of furniture
! for the new hotel, and nothing
but the best was bought. For
instance all beds are provided
with Ostamoor mattresses, and
the other furniture is as good &C
cordingly.
| Hotel Morrill, has q bright fu-
ture. The eighty-nine rooms
accommodate a good many
people. The men in charge know
their business.
Mr.. Morrill, for years was own
er of the Brunswick at Minneapo-
Lis. Mr.. Elliott is an old hotel
man. Mrs. Elliott a charming
little woman is the landlady.
The proprietors have rented
the hotel for ten years and pay

IN HIS WAR ON FOREIGNERS.
Castro Encouraged by Lack of Action
on Part of France.

Willemstad, Island of Curacao, Feb.
pa we'll informed official of Cara
cas-, in letter received here during
the day, says that President Castro is
encouraged in his war against foreign
ers by the fact that the United States
and France have taken no action
against Venezuela, He has given or.
ders to prepare the documents to in.
stitute legal proceedings against the
La Guayra harbor corporation and the
La Guayra and Caracas railroad.
These companies are both owned by
British subjects and are largely cap
italized. The writer of the letter re.
ferred to adds that they probably will
suffer the same fate as the asphalt
and other concerns.
The Venezuelan government has
created monopoly Of the manufac
t,lre of cigarettes, obliging all manu-
facturers to join trust in which Pres
ldent Castro and his friends have ac
quired the lions share.

SHOULD PREPARE FOR TROUBLE
Congressman Hull Urges Necessity Of
Army Appropriations.

Washington, Feb. 22.-Chairman
Hull Of the military affairs committee,
in presenting the army appropriation
bill to the house during the day,
urged the necessity Of complete pre-.
paredness as to our army and navy for
trouble in the Orient. He declared
that any nation not prepared to defend
its position in China might as we'll
haul down its flag and quit the Pa
cific. Incidentally, Mr.. Hull pro
nounced Minister Rockhill at Peking
guilty Of indiscretion in indicating to
Chinese officials that the United States
intended returning the 100000 900
paid as indemnity for the Boxer trou-
bles. Statements of this kind, he said,
will be taken by the Chinese as an in
dication that the United States is
afraid rather than liberal Mr.. Hull
scouts the idea that Japan is interest
ed in stirring up trouble in China to
injure the United States. Japan's in
terests in China, he said are identical
with those Of the United States and
preservation of peace there is the only
manner in which they can be main
tanned. Speeches on tariff, immigra-
ton and the Payne customs house bill,
consumed the balance of the day.

TAFT ON CHINESE SITUATION.
Secretary Of War Admits That It Is
Not Encouraging.

Chicago, Feb. 22.-Secretary OF War
Taft, who was the guest here at a din
ner given by Yale clubs at night, in
discussing the situation in the far
East revealed some little government
uneasiness as to the outcome and he
did not deny that the detachment Of
$4,000 troops that has been dis
patched to the Philippines may be
needed in China in the near future.
"The Eastern situation is problemat-
ical," he said China is now in a
state of unrest. To many it seems
that the conditions which prevail
there are similar to those which pre-.
coded the Boxer uprising. 1t must
be hoped however, that the outcome
may not be the same. The detach
ment of troops was not sent to China
but to the Philippines"
