HOODOO THAT SPREAD
ALL ROUND THE WORLD

PORT TOWNSEND, Aug. 3.-Ansel
White, recognized in every forecastle
that has traversed the Pacific as the
greatest hoodoo to round Cape Horn,
is dead. News of the recent demise in
far-off Melbourne. Australia, was
brought here the other day by Sailor
Bart Russell. Russell says that in
spite of the tragedies that marked as
ISOLATION with the dead man during
his lifetime the end was peaceful. The
story came out after Sailor Bart had
obtained the usual two-bit largesse of
the local boarding masters prepare
tory to his signing aboard the British
bark Eaton Hall for a voyage to Val
paraiso.
Persons Informed on Pacific fore
castle lore attribute to the existence
of the dead White as a sailor five mar
inc tragedies, attended with a number
of violent deaths, which, with conser-
vative reasoning, number in excess of
thirty. This record is directly trace
able, in the minds of sailors, to the
accidental breaking of a mirror which
White brought aboard the full-rigged
ship Indian Empire when she sailed
from Cardiff, Wales, March 10, 1898.
From that date to the present the life
of White was beset with SO great a
series of calamities that it was or
dinarily impossible to secure sailing
mates with him on any vessel.
1t was on the voyage that the mir

the first intimation of the calamitous
future that was to follow the man till
death occurred. Bound for San Fran
cisco, coal laden, 207 days out of Car
diff, the Indian Empire was forced to
put into Callao. Meeting a violent
gale, the splendid ship was shattered
and worn by the storm until 1t was by
more good luck than science that she
was enbaled to make port with heI
masts broken to stumps, and und or an
improvised jury rig. The cause of the
disaster was instantly ascribed to the
accident met with by White, and In

He himself supervises the working
details of every department.
He is a model of strength and vitality,
and since Peruna is the only remedy he
ever makes personal use of, his physical
condition is testimonial to the efficacy
of Peruna of greater value than could
be framed in words.
DIR, Hartman is one Of the few doctors
who take their own medicine and his
splendid physique and strength in his
old age are an eloquent argument for
Peruna very difficult to gainsay.
DR.. Hartman, being a farmer himself,
knows what the farmer needs and in
speaking of Peruna to the farmer he
speaks to his own kind of people.
Pe-ru-na For Bowel Trouble.

DR.. HARTMAN, THE FARMER.

DR.. S. B. Hartman, the inventor and
original manufacturer of Peruna, is one
of the best farmers in the Middle West.
His farm comprises several thousand
acres OF the best land in the State Of
Ohio, located near the City of Columbus.
AS an importer of French Percheron
and German Coach horses, the Doctor
has not an equal in this country.
The fowl-raising department is q
marvel of ingenuity and perfection !;
but, perhaps the dairy department. is
where the Doctor shows his greatest
sense Of order and sanitary science.
His milk COWS, of the purest Jersey
stock, have all been subjected to the
tuberculin tests, and he gives to the
City of Columbus pure milk, certified
by the Board of Health
The milk stables, the milk men and
the whole process of milking are alb
solptely faultless and clean.
The Doctor himself, past 7Oyears Of age,
IS the managing head OF the farm.

Pe-rD-na Is a Systemic Remedy.
III Peruna proves efficient for catarrh
in one place, it will be equally potent
in any other place, because it is sys-
teTnic remedy.
The people generally are very much
mtsinformed as to the nature of catarrh.
Qatarrh is usually believed to be con-
fined to the head, nose and throat.
Lately we sometimes hear of catarrh of
thestomach and catarrh of the bowels.
Seldom, If ever, do we hear of catarrh
Of(any other organs.
IT Is not because these organs are not
subject to catarrh, nor that catarrh of
theGe organs is not a very common dis
eaae, but simply because it is not gener-
allyl known that affections of these
ORIGINS may be due to catarrh.

 The delivery service that is given by the letter carriers in some parts of the borough is not at all satisfactory and no blame whatever is attached to the carriers that are assigned to these routes referred to. In order to give an idea of the service that is given to the people of these dissatis- fled districts we cite the following. A letter received at the local post office on Tuesday morning will not be de- livered until some time the following Thursday, making two days that q letter will remain in the office without being delivered The reason is given that the routes are not capitalized and that some of the carriers do not cover as much ground as others and that the nlmbar of families that are served in some districts is very much in excess of those in others. The people of this place are entitled to better service than they are receiving, at least in some parts of the town, and it is up to the one whose duty it Is to at tend to these matters to see to it that there is no unnecessary delay made in transmitting the mail to the proper persons.
