I suffered a nervous shock, caused by a misfortune to a friend. It was so great that I was unfitted for work. "I was just weak, low-spirited and nervous. I could hardly walk and could not bear the least noise. My appetite was poor and I did not care for food. I couldn’t sleep well and once for two weeks got scarcely an hour’s sleep. I had severe headaches most of the time and pains in the back ! and spine. “I wps treated “by two doctors, being , under the care of one of them for six j months. I got no relief and then de- i elded to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. I soon began to feel better and the im provement was general. My appetite became hearty and my sleep better.

March 27.—The first distribution by the general education al board since it received John D. Rockefeller’s most recent contribution of $32,090,000, was made at a meet ing of tie board Tuesday, when condi tional gifts totaling 1525,000 were made to five educational institutions. The money was divided as follows: Yale University, $300,000; Princeton University, $200,000; Bowdoin Col lege, Brunswick. Me., $5<L0vJ; Colo rado College, Colorado Springs, $50,- 000: Millsaps College, Jackson, Miss., $25,000. After making these appropriation the board voted to give a total of $42,500 to colored schools, the names of which were not made public le the "help of the board should tend discourage gifts to these schools from other sources. With the five principal gifts Is the condition that the institution shall raise a specified sum of which the board’s appropriation shall be a part. Yale and Princeton are each to rais $2,000,000; Colorado College, $500,000 Bowdoin. $250,000 and Millsap: $100,000. These subscriptions were decided upon after the board had considered applications from about 400 Institu tions. Further distributions, it was stated, will be made before long. The list of the twenty-eight securl ties in which Mr. Rockefeller pro poses to pay his pledge of $32,000,000, was received, but not made publio, although it was made clear that on basis of an average income of 5 per cent this recent endorsement would aggregate an income of $1,600,000 an npaiiy. In speaking later of the dis tribution Dr. Wallace Butterlck, sec retary of the general education board, said that in making the subscriptions the board had endeavored to act equitably. ”You will see,” said Dr. Butterick, "that the Southern Institutions which have not the financial backing of some of the Northeastern colleges are given sums under conditions which can he more readily met. They will not have to raise such large sums themselves In order to receive the subscriptions given by the board. Western institu tions which are osmewhat more pros perous than the Southern ones, re ceive gifts under terms which are quite easy, but not so much so as the Southern ones.” Tonight the board gave out a state ment which, after setting forth the allotment of the above named sums, and an intemized account of subscrip tions so far made for higher educa tion. says: “Important and highly encouraging reports were received from the agri cultural work of the board and it was voted to extend this agricultural work to ail the States of the cotton belt, in cluding Virginia, and the necessary appropriations were made for the pur pose.” Bill FACILITATE MPItSi BONDS tion management will extend ta< ^ y ’ N.

These instructions have been today enlarged by the secretary so that the deposits with national bank depositories in New York city will be at once increas ed about $15,000,000 from customs re ceipts under the provisions of the act of March 4. 1907. This action is taken with a view to facilitating the redemption of the 4 per cent bonds of 1907, and also to render available additional funds for the usual disbursements occurring April 1. The secretary has also in structed the treasurer of the United States to mail at once to the owners the checks for interest due April 1, 1907, on registered bonds of the 2 per cent consuls of 1930 an dthe 4 per cent funded loan of 1907. The sub treasury officials have been instruct ed to cash thfe checks on presentation and to cash on presentation any April coupons belonging to the bonds of these two loans. Secretary Cortelyou’s action will re sult in Immediately relieving the money market to the extent of about $16,900,000. Of this amount $15,000,000 will be deposited in the depository banks in New York city for which Government, State, municipal, approved railroad, Hawaiian. Philippine and Porto Rican bonds will be accepted as security. About $1,900,000 will he paid at once in interest to April 1. on registered and couponed bonds. When question ed as to whether he would continue to make customs deposits from day to day. the secretary said he was not prepared to answer definite pollcs'. but said he expected to act liberally in making deposit sof customs receipts.

Mr. Cleveland discussed the peculiar situation in which both the great po litical parties find themselves. Mr. Cleveland said: ’ There is much of the nature of de lirium in the popular outcry against railroad corporations. We shall all be ashamed of It by and by. I dare say I have some reason to know of the real iniquities of corporations, and I do know them, but there Is much that is not only groundless but wrong in the off-hand attacks made on the railroads by thoughtless people on all hands. What is well founded in them will be cured. ’ but the craze of denunciation will soon pass. We shall reflect that railroads are vitally related to our prosperity, and that to attack them heedlessly is to attack ourselves. It Is not the stock of soulless million aires, but the property of citizens, of widows and orphans whase savings are invested in railroads, that is being dtfmaged. We shall recall what rail roads have been and are still to be in the development of our country, and this craze will pass. Of course there must be some form of governmental supervision, but It should be planned in a quiet hour, not in one of angry excitement. “The railroads have had a hard time lately. Every man’s hand is against them. Wherever a railroad head is to be seen, it is safe and Its owner has no friends. There are pretty big difficulties before rail road managers Just now. Before long we shall have a crop to move under perplexities greater than those of last ear. And the increasing production of the country will increasingly embar rass the railroads. But I have faith to believe that whenever a thing must be done. Yankee wit and pluck will find a way to do it, especially if there is any profit ln It. “Only we should help, and not hin der. I have observed those passionate outbursts during a life of three score years and ten. I trust I have a fltt'ng appreciation of the Justice which lies beneath the present popular clamor against corporations, and especially railroad corporations, but I believe that as a frenzy it will pass and that the people will demand of the party to which they give their suffrages the enunciation of a principle rather than the denunciation of a condition. It be hooves Democrats to lo^e no time in bringing to the front the issue of and in focusing the attention of the country upon it. Tariff reform is the issue that Will clarify the atmosphere solidify the friends of Democracy and bring victory to the party. I cannot believe that it is because the reform of the tariff has been a special interest of my own life-long thought and con viction that I deem it the reform the Democracy must force. Nor do I hold this opinion because we have won our victory in so large a degree upon its merits. “I hold the matter of the reform of the tariff to be absolutely fundamental. This question of the trusts is entirely dependent upon it. It cannot ever be AN ACID BLOOD POISON Rheumatism is an acid blood poison, and the causes that produce it an often silently accumulating; in the system for years. Poor digestion, stomach troubles, weak kidneys, torpid liver, and a general inactive condi tion of the system leaves the refuse and waste matter, which should be carried off, to sour and form uric acid, which is absorbed into the bleod. When the blood is in this acid-charged condition, it deposits the poisons and irritating particles with which it is loaded in the muscles, nerves, joints and bones. Then Rheumatism gets possession of the system, ana life is made miserable by its pains, aches and discomforts. The changing of the weather, exposure to cold and dampness, etc., alwav's increase the trouble, and so severe does the pain become that quick relief must tx had. A good liniment or plaster is often helpful, but it should be re membered that relief from such treatment is only temporary, because thfl trouble is in the blood and cannot be r» moved by external applications.

Carson Lawrason, who was in command of Company B, Twenty-fifth infantry, on the night of the affray at Brownsville, Texas, was on the stand nearly all of today in the Investiga tion being conducted by the Senate committee on military affairs. On practically all material points his testimony corroborated that given )|y the men of his command, and also hy the men of companies C and D. Ho was shown bullets taken from the walls of houses in Brownsville, but could not say whether they had been fired from the Springfield rifles with which the Twenty-fifth infantry was equipped, or whether they had been discharged from Krag Jorgensen cartridges by Krag rifles or carbines. He further gave testimony inferring that the shells picked up in the streets may have bee discharged on tho ranga at Fort Niobrara ad carried to Fort Brown and also that he was certain that tsvo of the rifles Identified by ex pert examination of the shells as hav ing been used to fire a certain lot of tho cartridges had not been out of the chests in which they had been packed at Niobrara. Lieut. Lawrason told of having beon awakened by the Are and of his efforts to get. the company formed amid the confusion attending the call to arms, as well as of a number of other mem bers on which ail the members of Company B had been examined. He said that he had posted his men along the wall In the rear of the barracks at the order of Major Penrose. Senator Forakcr asked the witness if the men could have closed their guns while stationed along the wall. Lawix- son thought this would have been im possible. According to his story, on direct examination, Lawrason was with his company along the garrison wall for about two and a half hour* when they were dismissed by the com* mand of Major Penrose, who first gav«' instructions to Lawrason to see that all;, of the company guns were locked lnir* the racks and that all of the guns not* Jj in use were accounted for. Lawrason saw the gun« placed In the racks and the racks locked after he had carefully verified the count. AH of the guns, he said were inspected the following morning when drill call wa» sounded, and ammunition was inspected as well. Lieutenant Lawrason told the committee that he satisfied himself that no guns of his company had been used the night before and that the men had all of their ammunition. The witness explained that shell* picked up on the range are saved and deeapped and are then shipped back to the arsenal. He said that at Fort Niobrara there was something wrong with Company B’s decapper and the shells, more than a thousand in num ber. were put in a box and shipped to Fort Brown to be deeapped there. He did not know what had become of the box afte.r the arrival of the com pany at Brownsville, but there ww considerable property left on the rear porch of the barracks. The inference plainly shown by Sen ator Foraker’s questions was that this box may have been accessible to Mexi can boys or others and that .shells bear ing marks that could be traced to Com pany B rifles, may have been carried town and afterwards thrown the country owing to’ his illness, was made today by B.
