There is more Catarrh in this section OF
the country than all other diseases put
together. and until the last few years
many years doctors pronounced it local
disease and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with local
ence has proven Catarrh to be a consti-
tutional disease. and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Vure, manufactured by T.. j. Cheney &:
Co. Toledo. Ohio, is the only Constitu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken in
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood
sand mucous surfaces OF the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case It
fails to cure. Send for circulars and tes-
timonials.

The Greenvillr Piedmont of
the 29th ult says:
The 81 condemnation suits
brought by the United States
government to gain possession or
an immense tract Of land in
| Oconee and Pickens counties will
not be tried at the Greenville
term Of the Federal court, &C
cording to information obtained
from District Attorney w. j.
Thurmond OF the western dis
trict. Mr.. .Thurmond stated that,
with extra help, he and Assist
ant District Attorney Mayes had
made good progress with the
proceedings, but that it would
be impossible to have the vari-
Gus cases in shape for trial at
the term of the court Commenc-
ing next Tuesday. Papers in all
but seven of the cases have been
completed, but the law requires
that the action must be adver-
tised for six weeks.
Mr.. Thurnond stated that at
this time it was almost impos
sibie to estimate the number of
acres that will beinvolved. From
a monetary standpoint it will
probably mean the expenditure
by the government of more than
100000. The distribution of
this money among 'the land
owners from whom the govern
ment proposes to buy forest re-
serves is calculated to be a stim- !
ulant to conditions in those sec
tionS.
The cases are of great import
and will probably be warmly
contested.
Officials here have been work
ing on the proceedings for sew
eral months.

Frederick A. Jones of Boston, vice
president of the Dominion Steamship
Line, general manager of the Eastern
Steamship Corporation and brother OF
Clerk of Courts Charles w. Jones of this
city, has invented a new safety device
that will enable one man to release q
lifeboas so that they are ready for
launching in one minute after the order
- given, and the device has just been
Installed on the big passenger steamers
Metropolitan Line, which ply between
Boston and New York. Experts say that
at least six minutes and the time of
three men is saved in lowering the life
boats in case of necessity. The device
is very simple one and Sunday was
demonstrated at a trial drill on the
steamer Massachusetts. The base of the
lashings which hold the lifeboats in place
Is a steel triangle, the lashings are held
firm by a steel hook inserted into the
triangle and locked by steel ring over
the mouth of the hook. The link pro-
trudes over the rest of the flashing
slightly so that a man may run the en-
tire length of the hurricane deck kick
ing each ring as he passes and thus in a
moments time release every lifeboat
ready to be swung out on the davits
Formerly the boats were held in position
by a buckle or knot fastening.

Presidential electors than any state in
the Union.

there exist the strongest ties OF blood
and iron. We Texans believe that the
help of the magnificent people of your
great commonwealth in this undertaking
needs only to be suggested. and it is.

The money a municipality invests in
public baths. floating baths, seaside
baths, and swimming pools will give
splendid returns in the saving Of lives
directly and indirectly. Indirectly by
making people clean physically and NOR
ally, by preventing disease through the
cultivation of cleanliness. and by max
ing the people more vigorous and thus
resistant to the invasion of disease. d.
rectly by teaching every future citizen,
man or woman. how to swim and to save
his life in the event Of accident
