Senators Reach Agreement as To
Amendment to Treaty Which Will
Be Satisfactory to American Resi-
dents of Island, Who outnumber
All Other Inhabitants.

Washington, March 9.-Senatol
Spooner and Senator Bacon have
reached an agreement concerning an
amendment to the Isle of Pines treaty
which is intended to protect American
interests.
1t provides that the island shall be
regarded as a separate province within
the meaning of the Cuban constitution
This would give to the island local self,
government and a representative in
the Cuban congress when the popuIa-
ton of the island warrants such repre-
%sentation.
As the Americans are il the MAORI
ty in the island, it is understood that
the amendment will be satisfactory to
them. 1t will be offered in the senate
when the treaty is taken up in execu-
tive session.

Cheyenne, Wyo., March 9.-Mrs. Ro-
bert Carey and a gentleman friend
We're badly injured in a runaway acct
dent yesterday afternoon. The couple
were driving along Capitol avenue in
a two-wheeled trap when the horse be-
came frightened. Mrs, Carey held the
reins, and for blocks, along the entire
distance Of the street, managed to keep
the horse in the center of the road and
from turning orner She warned men
who ran into the street not to try to
stop the runaway, fearing the animal
would shy and upset the cart.
A half dozen mounted men started in
pursuit, some of them being cowboys
with lariats. AS the runaway got onto
the boulevard it looked as though Mrs.
Carey had the horse under control, but
her strength suddenly failed, and in a
twinkling the cart was upset and de-
m%olished, its occupants being thrown
heavily to the ground.

suffers from some arrangement of the
female organism, and this is the secret
of SO many unhappy homes.
No woman can be amiable, light
hearted and happy, a joy to her hus-
band and children, and perform the
duties incumbent upon her, when she
is suffering with backache, headache,
nervousness, sleeplessness, bearing
down pains, displacements, spinal
weakness or diseased organs.
Irritability and snappy retorts take
the place of p~leasantness, and all sur
shine is driven out of the home, and

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro,
nounced it a local disease and prescrib.
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment, pro
nounced it incurable. Science has prov
en- catarrh to be a constitutional dis.
ease and therefore requires constitu,
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. j. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken intern.
ally in doses from 10 drops to a tea,

HOME OF PERFUMES
ALL SWEET DOORS HAVE THEIR
ORIGIN IN THE EAST.
Crusaders Credited With Bringing
Into Western Europe from the Holy
Land the Essences Which Are so
Popular at the Present Time.

During the Dark Ages and in early
medieval times perfumes, with the eX-
ception of incense for ecclesiastical
use, were almost unknown, and the
rude Saxon thames and Norman bar
ons and their spouses were quite con
tent with the smell of wood fires and
huge masses of roast or seethed meat,
and were not at all solicitous to en-
Joy the pleasure of sweet odors.
1t seems to have been the Crusaders
who brought from the Holy Land into
western Europe the perfumes for
which the East has from time imme-
mortal been renowned. The original
home of perfumes was either China
or Egypt. In the last named country
the priests of the Temple of HeliOp-
oils used to offer every day to their
divinity three kinds of perfumes, one
in the morning, n at noon, and the
third at night, the last being a scent
composed of sixteen ingredients, form
ing an ensemble called kaphi. The
universally of perfumes in ancient
Greece is known to every one who
remembers the delightful descriptions
| of the perfumed baths of Roman la
dies in Bulwer's Last Days of Pom
peii," and from Hellas the use of per-
fumery spread to Rome, where, under
the Empire, almost every object was
scented.
Even the standards of the legions
were perfumed, and the velarium of
tho Coliseum Uhnp tho I'm narAr mo G
present, was busted with aromatic
powders. The successive invasions of
the barbarians led to the shutting up
Of the perfumers' shops with which
the Eternal City had abounded, and
until the time of the Renaissance,
perfumery in Italy was only vended
by a few apothecaries. Its use, how
ever, had not died out in Constantine
pie, and at the fall Of the Greek EN-
pire the Byzantine Greeks found hat
their Turkish conquerors were as pas
sionately fond of perfumery as they
were themselves.
Sweet essences for secular use
were first made an article of trade
in France by one Rene or Rinaldo, a
Florentine, who came to Paris in the
suite of Catherine de Medicis, to
whom the French people likewise owe
the introduction of confectionery, and
If m~alevolent rumor is to be credited,
the CONNECTION of at least half a dozen
subtle poisons. Lady Morgan, indeed,
went so far as to %insinuate hat the
Italian princess once combined her
oliu' In with her
familiarity with toxicology in an ex-
tremely tragIcal manner by sending
as a present to Queen Elizabeth at her
palace at Sheen, or Richmond, a large
cheese-cake, carefully poisoned, from
the effect of eating which the great
Eliza died.-Gerald Austin in The Pill
