Dogs Health Restored by Operation.

Dogs Health Restored BY Operation.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. May IL
Brought from the Pacific coast to this
city to be operated upon for throat
trouble, Chnita, Yorkshire terrier, has
been restored to health. The mistress
of the dog is Mrs. Isabelle Adams, Of
Seattle, Wash. She thinks so much OF
it that she has an entire gold service
upon which to serve meals to the dog.
Unable to find a surgeon upon the
Pacific coast willing to operate upon
the dog, Mrs. Adams tried Washington
and New York, meeting with disap-
pointment. In this city she found q
surgeon who performed the operation.
It cost Mrs. Adams $500 to save the
life Of her dog.

MILLION FOR An ART BUILDING
Wealthy New Yorker Will Give That
Sum for New Structure in
Gotham.

NEW YORK, May 21.-The an
nouncement has been officially made
that $1,000, 900 has been conditionally
promised by a wealthy New Yorker
toward the erection and endowment of
a united fine arts building to house the
dozen societies composing the Fine
Arts federation. This scheme, formu-
lated several years ago, has received
fresh impetus since the union of the
National Academy of Design and the
Society of American Artists, as was
expected.
John w. Alexander, a member Of the
council of the National Academy of
Design, has estimated the cost of
financing the scheme at 100000 at
beast, appropriating 100000 each
for site, building and endowment. 9th
'er artists, however, maintain that
site in the central part of the city will
cost more than 100000.
A member of the committee on ways
and means, appointed to raise at least
$4,000, 900 for the project says that
with the pledge Of $1,O00,0OO mention
ed there had been a revival of talk
about getting the site Of the Lenox Ii
brary. When this site was discussed
last wear it was found to be held at too
high a figure, and was, moreover. con-
sidered by some of the members of the
confederation too far up town.
Other members are of the opinion
that the city should create park In

department with entire satisfaction to
his superiors.
Resolution Years Ago.
Mr. Riley made this resolution twen-
tX years ago, but did not live up to it
until within eight years ago, since
which time he has not wavered in his
determination to eat less. Not that he
cannot afford to live better, for he
draws a salary of $1,000 a year, but
because he believes it is better for his
health to cut down his eating propensi-
ties.
Mr.. Riley is well preserved. measur-
ing five feet, five inches in height, and
weighing about 125 pounds. He has a
full gray beard, kindly face and
bright blue eyes, and is Of revolutionary
descent.
Mr.. Riley cooks his own meals, and
the following is a list of the articles
of food he consumed in the month of
March last: Beef, cents; CLAIMS, 10
cents; fish, Is cents; bread. Al cents;
cake, so cents; pie, 20 cents; pretzels

VACANCY OF BR|GAD|ER GENERAL
Much SpecuIation as to the Probable
Successor to General James
A. Buchanan.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. May IL
Speculation is once more rife in the
army concerning the appointment OF
brigadier general on the retirement oil
General James A. Buchanan, now In
the Philippines, on May 81. The va
cancy has already attracted long list
of candidates, including several cap
tains Of comparatively Junior grade
1t is pretty well known that Captain D.
]. Pershing, of the Fifteenth cavalry
who is on duty as military attache IN
Japan, has been booked for one of the
brigadier generalships. He may be ap-
pointed on May 81, but. previous to his
appointment. it is likely that several
officers will be appointed and retireu
with the rank Of brigadier general IL
is understood that the president is not
disposed to encourage applications from
Junior officers, but in the case OF Cap
tain Pershing the promise OF appoint
ment was made some time ago. Inc
president admires Pershing fro his gal
lantry in the field, and he is the only
Junior officer to be mentioned In an
annual message Of the president as an
example of individual intrepidity.

WAR COLLEGE COURSE A SECRET
Some Army Officers Are Questioning
tho Policy Adopted by tho Con-
a eral Staff.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 21.-
Some army officers are now question
ing the wisdom of allowing foreign
service representatives to attend the
military service schools. Several rep
resentatives from abroad and South
American countries and Mexico are
now of the classes in the post graduate
courses at the service schools at Fort
Leavenworth and Fort Riley, Kan, but
none Of them have been admitted to the
artillery school at Fort Monroe. 1t is
thought that the presence of foreign Of
ficers might lead to some naturally
obvious restrictions upon the lecturers,
who would have to modify their tech
meal and tactical illustrations in de-
ference to the presence of representa-
tives Of other governments. The rea-
son. for granting permission to foreign
officers to attend the American service
schools was probably prompted by COM
mercial rather than military considera-
express themselves officially against
the admission of foreign officers to the
American service schools lest they
appear discourteous to foreign army
associates, and personally the repre-
Sontafiv who have annoaro6 arc mon
of attractive personality, to whom has
been shown every consideration. The
question is a delicate one, but it re-
mains of some doubt whether the best
facilities in the post graduate course
are appreciated in a perfectly unham-
pered way by the existing conditions.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is In
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
is the safest and most efficient disinfect-
ant and purifier in nature but few realize
Its value when taken into the human
system for the same cleansing purpose
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of It the better; it Is not drug
at all. but simply absorbs the gases ana
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 effectually clears and Improves
the complexion, It whitens the teeth and
further acts as a natural and eminently
safe cathartic.
Tt absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; II
disinfects the mouth and throat from the
poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form
or another. but probably the best char
coal and the most for the money is In
Stuarts Charcoal LozenFes; they are
composed OF the fines, powdered Willow
charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics
in tablet form o.. rather in the form OF
large, pleasant tast4 lg lozenges, the
charcoal being mixed with honey.
The daily use of these loZenges will
soon tell in a much improved condition
of the general health, better complexion
sweeter breath and purer blood, and the
beauty of It is that no possible harm can
result from their continued use, but on
the contrary great benefit.
A Buffalo physician in speaking OF the
benefits Of charcoal says It advise Stu
arts Charcoal Lozenges to all patients
suffering from gas in stomach and bowels
and to clear the complexion, and purify
the breath, mouth and throat I also be-
lleve the liver is greatly benefited by
the daily use of them; they cost but
twenty-five cents a box at drug stores,
and although in some sense a patent
preparation, yet I believe l get more and

LETTERS ARE ADMITTED.
Preliminary Work Continues In Trial
of Greene and Gaynor.

Savannah, Ga, January 24.-The pro-
ceedings in the federal court in the trial
of Greene and Gaynor today were again
confined largely to identification of docu-
ments and letters to be used as evidence
and the admission of still others as evil
dence.
The actual merits of the case were not
gone into to any considerable extent and
the most important development was the
decision of Judge Speer to admit as evil
dence many letters and kilograms that
were contained in letter pressbooks that
were identified as having been kept by
Captain Carter, while he was engineer
officer in charge OF the Savannah dis
trict.
These were, of course. copies, and the
defense strenuously, though ineffeetively,
denied their admissibility upon the ground
of their being irrelevant in the trial of
Greene and Gaynor. The court held, how
ever. that they related to an alleged CO.
consplrator and were admissible.
Tomorrow 1t is expected there will be
many more of these letters admitted and
that the defense will continue to note
exceptions to the admission of all.
