speeches, delivered in the time allot-

A piece of abergris which tips the
scales at six pounds was the lucky
find of Capt. John Maloy yesterday as
he was walking along the gulf beach
west of Fort McRae, and in the vicini-
ty of the wrecked bark Chiunfo. The
substance which the pilot found has
valuation of more than $4,000, as il
is highly valued in the manufacture of
costly perfumery.
The piece found by Capt. Maloy is
pronounced to be a very fine speci-
men, being transparent and the color
of fine wax. 1t is the second piece
to be found on the gulf beach within
the past two months, Capt. Lars An
derson picking up the first piece,
which was found east of Fort Pickens
and several miles from where Capt.
Maloy made his find yesterday. The
latter brought the ambergris to the
city last night, where it was exhibited
to a number of persons.
How the two pieces of ambergris
came to be washed up on the gulf
beach is somewhat of a mystery, as
it is usually found in the Indian
Ocean or seas frequented by the
sperm whale from which it comes.
1t is the presumption that the am
bergris has been brought by the tides
up to the gulf and finally cast up on
the beach near Pensacola.

Washington, Feb. .25-Charges made
by H. T. Jones, special agent of the
land office, that Jas. NJ. Sheridan, who
was sent by the authorities to Wash
ington to take charge of the hearings
of the Cunningham coal cases in Seattle
last year, practically threw the govern
ment's case away by giving counsel
for the claimants an opportunity to eX-
anime all the evidence collected by the
agents, furnished sensation today at
the Ballinger-Pinchot inquiry.
Jones bitterly attacked the compe-
tency of Sheridan, who replaced Gla-
Wis in charge of the cases and declared
that although CLAWS was no lawyer he
knew more law than Sheridan. Asked
why he failed tGN protest to Washing
ton regarding the cases, Jones replied
he might have been deemed insubordi-
nate. The witness worked with CLAWS
on the Alaskan cases and said he felt
it was a reflection upon CLAWS that
Sheridan was sent to relieve him. On
direct examination JeHes proved a
most effective witness, but on cross
examination he was stubborn and de
fiant.
w. w. Barr, of Seattle, testified, re,
futing the charge that letters missing
from the government files were found
in a box belonging to CLAWS and stored
in the government building at Seattle.
On cross examination Barr was badly
tangled.

Wonderful results are being &C
compl1shed these days in the treat
ment of consumption by the fresh air
cure. 1t is not always necessary to
90 to Arizona or Colorado to get re-
lief. Winter and summer find people
who are afflicted with tuberculosis
staying out of doors-well wrapped
up in the winter to be sure, in the
cold states the cold air goes
directly into the lungs and it is said
that tuberculosis germs cannot survive
if the lungs are constantly filled with
pure air. Of course people who are
very far along in consumption may
not find cure in fresh air or any kind
of hygenic living, but the first and
middle stages, can be cured by an out
door life.
Living out doors would be fine for
all of us, but as we are not all FORUM
ate enough to be able tC do it, let us
do the best we can and ventilate the
rooms we are obliged to stay in and
Gil our lungs with fresh air every
chance we get. Conductors on street
cars, policemen, etc. who spend the
most of their lives on the streets,
and farmers whose work keeps them
out of doors about twothirds of the
time are not always well by any
means. 1t is true they get plenty of
fresh air, but in other ways they do
not live right. They eat improper
food, or too much of it, do not chew
their food we'll, are irregular in their
sleeping, or in other habits, do not
