SUBMARINE THIEVES.
They Steal r. Safe Containing $4,000
From Sunken Ship.

New York, June 22.-Two expert d.
vers, John L. Mcpherson and Simon
Grant of this city have brought from
Hayti a tale of one of the strangest
of a safe containing $4,000 from the
bottom of the sea where 1T had lain
in sunken hulk for nearly five years.
The divers had been engaged to re-
cover the treasure from the Haytien
gunboat Crete-A-Perriot, which was
sunk in Gonaives harbor, September
6, 1902, after an encounter with the
German gunboat Panther. 1t appears
that the Haytien gunboat, command
ed by Admiral Killick, had taken part
in a revolution against the Hayden
government To further the cause
German merchantmen, the steamer
MarkOmannin, was boarded and arms
and ammunition were seized. The
commander of the Panther was notf-
fed and he soon cornered the Haytien
gunboat in Gonaives harbor and fired
at her. Those on board the Crete-A-
Perriot rather than the ship should
fall into the hands of the Germans,
exploded a charge of dynamite in the
ship and caused her to sink. Several
men including Admiral Killick were
lost with the vessel. 1t was known at
the time that the safe in the admiraPs
quarters contained money and valu-
ables amounting to Upward of $780,
600 but no effort was made to recover
this until recently, when Mcpherson
and Grant were engaged to dive for
the treasure The divers had no diff
f1culty in locating the sunken ship nor
in locating the admiraTs room. But
when they sought the safe they found
it had been taken away. The condi-
ton of tho cabin indicated that it had
been removed recently. The Haytien
officials, the divers say, were astound-
ed at the revelation but could find no
clue to the identity of the submarine
thieves

LIKE A REAL BALL GAME.
Fans at Novelty Theater Cheered the
Various Players.

The reproduction of the ball game
at the Novelty yesterday afternoon
was attended by a large number of
fans and was one of the most en-
thusiastic baseball gatherings of the
year. The short circuit of a wire in
Topeka made it impossible to get the
return. by telegraph but by use of
messenger boys from the western
Union the service which was given
was almost as good. Every play was
reproduced almost exactly as it hap
pened and the fans were over en-
thusiastic.
In. one inning with a runner on first
and no one out Abbott came to bat.
The fans all yelled "All right, Abbott.
you bring him home" The roofing of
the fans was almost as real as at a
baseball game.
The service has been fixed up to the
best standt I'd for the remainder of
the series and a great deal better SER
given to the fans hereafter. The Sun
day game will start at o'clock.

MANNED BY OFFICERS.
Frisco Telegraph Service Is Being
Maintained to Some Extent.

San Francisco, Cal. June 22.-The
situation here in connection with the
strike of the telegraph operators is
quiet In all about 200 men are out
upon conservative estimate and the
service is now maintained in the Of
fees of both companies by officials, in
Guiding chief operators and wire
chiefs, together with one or two men
and women who have remained loyal.
General superintendent Frank
Jaynes of the Western Union is ac-
credited with the statement that the
company hoped to be running fairly
well in another week. when outside
operators were expected to arrive to
fill the places of the strikers.
1t is learned that fifteen operators
for the Western Union are on their
way to San Francisco from the east
and have passed through Rawlins,
Wyo. 1t is believed the company has
had these men in reserve in anticipa-
ton of the strike and that it has ar
ranged for others to follow them.
Superintendent Jaynes has refused to
make any definite admissions about
the strike breaking operators the COM
pany intends to import.
AS to whether the strike shall be
ordered to extend to other cities re-
mains to be determined. The Postal
and Western Union officials insist they
will hold no conferences with the Of
fcials of the union. If they remain
obdurate the telegra phers in other
cities may be called out thus tieing up
all the commercial telegraph business
of the west

"UNWHIPPED MOB. !"
Term Applied by General Funston to
San Francisco People.

San Francisco. June 22.-In reply
to an invitation requesting the parallel
patton of the United States troops in
the Fourth of July parade, General
Frederick Funston sent a communica-
ton that has caused much discussion
among the members of the committee
having in charge the coming celebra-
ton.
While the members refuse to give
out the letter for publication at this
time, it is stated that one sentence
used is responsible for the discussion.
1t appears that after thanking the
committee for the kind invitation ex-
tended to the troops. General Funston
said he was loathe to parade his men
in the streets of San Francisco ito be, -
as he is quoted, "sneered at and jeered
at by an unwhipped mob"
After considerable discussion it was
decided to appoint a special commits
tee to consider the matter and decide
whether any reply should be made.
Supervisor O'Neil was appointed
chairman and Rev. Philip Organ and
Samuel Adelstein as the other mem
berS.

WASN'T MY WORK
SATISFACTORY.
Henry Wilson's Life Motto
Brought Success
A Good Example for Any
One.
ALWAYS Do IT RIGHT
The Same Rule Followed
by Hot Springs Doctors.
They Never Accept Incura-
bic Cases for Treatment.

Henry Wilson, who was at one time
United States senator from his native
state, Massachusetts. and afterward
| became vice president. was once ac-
costed by a gentleman on the streets
of Washington with the inquiry:
Didn't you years ago, when you was
boy at Natick. Mass. black my
boots?"
Not in the least abasf1ed or embar-
raised. Mr.. Wilson, replied: 81 did
sir, and you can't say that 1 didn't dc
the job in a satisfa Glory manner
That's a fact" replied the gentle
man, with a smile. you earned your
money by doing your work WE'LL
All men who have attained success
in their callings have lived UP to the
motto. What is worth doing, is worth
doing we'll"
1t applies with equal force to every
vocation in life-the day 1aborer. the
tiller of the soil, the mechanic. the
professional man-all must do their
work we'll, and in a manner that gives
satisfaction to those by whom they are
employed, else. they will sooner or
later meet with that failure and dis
appointment. which either their care
lessness or ignorance has invited-per-
haps to both.
1H6SO DUCKS Oh the IOdQ
to success have not stood in the way
of the staff of Hot Springs Doctors.
They exercise the most minute care
in the diagnosis of disease. not over
looking the smallest detail. which
ninety-nine times out of a hundred
escape the eye of the ordinary prac-
titioner and if he did accidentally OBJ
serve it would most likely consider it
of little or no Importance. The large
and important things Of earth are
made up of minute particles.
Little drops of water,
Little grains of sand.
Make the mighty ocean,
And the beauteous land
This is Just as true of disease as 1t is
of matter. A man smoking a hard
stemmed pipe for years may lay the
foundation for a malignant cancer that
will eventually sap his life and carry
him to his grave. He may catch
slight cold, to which he pays little or
no attention, and the result may be
chronic catarrh in some of its multi
tudinous forms, or perhaps consump-
tion, the final end of which may be
shattered health and a premature
grave.
If chronic disease has taken a hold
upon you, what a simple matter it is
to call -on the Hot Springs Doctors at
523 Kansas avenue. and get the bene-
fit of their intelligent diagnosis and
free examinations and consultations.
You are doing yourself an injustice If
YOU fail to grasp this opportunity now
presented. If there Is shadow OF
hope, they will be enabled to tell you
so. If afflicted. you certainly have no
excuse for not calling on them.

U. S. DISPENSATORY
Describes the Principal ingredients
Contained In Pe-ru-na.


Contained In Pe-ru-na.
Are we claiming too much for Peruna
when we claim it to be an effective
remedy for chronic catarrh? Have we
abundant proof that Peruna is in real
ity such catarrh remedy? Let us see
what the United States Dispensatory
says of the principal ingredients OF
Peruna-
Take, for instance, the ingredient
hydrastis canadensis, or golden seal
The United States Dispensatory says
ofthis herbal remedy, that it is largely
employed in the treatment of depraved
mucous membranes, chronic rhinitis
(nasal catarrh), atomic dyspepsia (ca-
tarrh of the stomach, chronic intesti-
nal catarrh, catarrhal jaundice (ca-
tarrh of the iver), and in diseased
mucous membranes the pelvic organs.
It is also recommended for the treat
ment of various forms of diseases Pc
culiar to women.
Another ingredient of Peruna, cory
dalis formosa, is classed in the United
States Dispensatory as tonic. So also
is cubebs classed as a stomachic and as
q tonic for the mucous membranes.
Cedron seeds is another ingredient Of
Peruna, an excellent drug that has
been very largely overlooked by the
medical profession for the past fifty
years. The seeds are to be found in
very few drug stores. The United
States Dispensatory says of the action
of cedron that it is used as a bitter
tonic and in the treatment of dysentery,
and in intermittent diseases as a sub
stitute for quinine.
Oil of copaiba, another ingredient
of Peruna, is elassed by the United
States Dispensatory as mild stimulant
ana diuretic. It acts on the stomach
and intestinal tract. It acts as slim
ulant on the genito-urinary mem
branes. Useful in chronic cystitis,
chronic dysentery and diarrhea, and |
some chronic diseases of the liver and |
kidneys.
Send to US for free book of testimon-
ials of what the people think of Pc
runa as catarrh remedy. The best
evidence is the testimony Of those who
have tried it.
