UNCLE SAM’S WAS VESSELS
Report of Chief of Construction
as to Their Condition.
Washington, Oct. 28.—Chief
Constructor Hichborn’s annual re
i port shows a total of 110 vessels in
the navy, of which thirty are ar
mored, including eight battles! ips,
two cruisers, one ram, six double
turretted monitors, all of which
are in active service prepared for
offensive or defensive operations,
and thirteen single turret moni
tors which might be utilized in the
harbors in which they now lie.
-Three other armored battleships
are now under construction. There
are twenty-five new steel cruisers
also in commission in addition to
three special class vessels of the
new navy, the Bancroft, Dolphin
and Vesuvius.
These are unarmoied as are six
teen iron and wooden cruisers and
six wooden sailing vessels still car
ried on the lists. Three torpedo
boats are in use and fifteen under
contract. The other vessels build
ing given are six gunboats, one
sub-marine boat and fifteen torpe
do boats. Twelve tugs are also in
cluded in the naval force and fif
teen old ships unfit for sea which,
however, are uti ized for various
purposes, training vessels, naval
reserve rendezvous and receiving
ships. In compliance with law for
the increase of the navy, Engineer
|fn Chief Melville and the chief
construct r unite in a stat ment
that $5,925,359 must be appropri
ated for 1899, which, with $8,287,-
502, the balance in the treasury is
required for existing contracts.
The only new vessels which con
gress is asked to authorize are two
composite sailing vessels of 1,100
tons, costing a half million dol
■ars, as practice cruisers for the
naval academy to take the place
of the Bancroft, but these do not
conflict with the recommendation
for throe additional battleships
which Secretary Herbert is confi
dently expected to make in his an
nual report. During the fiscal
year nine vessels, the Indiana,
Massachusetts, Oregon, Maine,
Texas, Terror, Monad nock, Katah
din and Ericsson were addsd to
the effective force of the navy, and
during the current year the Brook
lyn, lowa, Nashville, Wi mington,
Helena, Puritan, six gunboats,
seven torped > boats and one tug
are to be added. Constructor
Hichborn declares that the naval
station and docks at Port Royal,
S. C„ and Port Orchard, Wash.,
cannot be properly utilized without
the erection of shops, for which he
urges authority.

The Man And the Snake.
The reputed fascination of the
serpent’s eye is the motive of a
story in Mr. Ambrose Bierce’s vol
ume of tales entitled “In the Midst
of Life.” Mr. Brayton was the
guest of a friend, an eminent zoo
logist, whose specialty, of which he
had a fine collection, was snakes.
Stretched upon a sofa in his own
room, Mr. Brayton glanced from
the book he was carelessly scan
ning while awaiting the summons
to dinner, and saw, in the shadow
under his bedj, two small points of
light about an inch apart. He
gave them no special thought and
resumed his reading.
In a few minutes he gave an in
voluntary start, and stared into
the obscurity under the bed. His
gaze disclosed the coils of a large
serpent; the points of light were
its eyes, but they were no longer
merely luminous points ; they look
ed into his own with a malign sig
nificance. Brayton was a brave
man, but this seemed an occasion
when discretion was the better
part of valor. He would beat a
retreat and backward, so as not to
disturb the reptile; but instead of
the movement his will had shaped
his right foot was placed in advance
of his left.
The snake did not move, but its
eyes seemed to bocoine larger and
more luminous. There were strange
noises in Brayton’s ears as, with
reluctant steps ho could not refrain
from drawing nearer the bed. Sud
denly something struck him a hard
blow upon the face. He had fallen
to the floor.
The zoologist, startled by a ter
rific scream from above, rushed to
his friend’s room. There lay Bray
ton, senseless. As ho bent over
him he glanced under the bed.
“How did this thing get here?”
he exclaimed, and pulling out the
snake, flung it to the centre of the
room, where it lay without motion.
It was a stuffed snake; its eyes
were two shoe buttons.—Youth’s
Companion.
Owing to over-crowding and bad
ventilation, the air of the school
room is often close and impure,
and teachers and pupils frequently
suffer from lung and throat trou
bles. To all such we would say,
try Chamber.ain’s Cough Remedy
For coughs, colds, weak lungs and
bronchial troubles, no other reme
dy can compare with it. Says A
C. Freed Superintendent of Schools
Prairie Depot, Ohio: “Having
some knowledge of the efficacy of
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, 1
have no hesitation in recommend
ing it to all who suffer from coughs
lung troubles, etc.” For sale by
all druggists.
He Flagged the Train.
Express No. 1 was tearing along
at tremendous speed, making up,
when all at once the engineer saw
a man down the line where a wag
on had crossed the track, waving
something red with frantic ener
gies. The air brakes w r ere instant
ly applied, and the engine reversed.
With a rush of hissing steam, a
roar of grinding wheels and a cloud
of whirling dust, the train came to
a stop just as the man by the side
of the track was reached.
“What’s the matter?” shouted
the excited engineer, thrusting
half his body through the window
of his cab.
“Nothin’, as I knows on,” re
plied the man.
“What did you flag the train
for?”
‘‘Didn’t flag no train.”
“Yes you did. You stood there
and waved a red flag, which every
body knows is a sign of danger and
s> I stopped the train.”
“Didn’t wave no red flag.”
“Well, you . waved something
red."
“C -rse I did ’Twas my red

TREED BY BULLS,
Two Girls Who Wore Brilliant!
Red Petticoats.
Port Jervis, Oct- 28. —Near the
little settlement of Orbenburg, in
Sul ivan coanty, are great groves
of hickory irees, famous through
all the countryside for the size and
quality of their nuts. The cold
spell has torn asunder the husks,
and the brown leaves that carpet
the ground a~e thickly strewn with
nuts.
Nearby at Fremont, live Helene
Gebhardt and Pauline Schmidt,
aged seventeen and sixteen respec
tively. Together they went into
the woods on Saturday to pick
nuts. While thus engaged they
were startled by a crashing in the
underbrush and looking up saw
two of Max Gabler’s red Jersey
bulls watching them. Jersey bubs
are noted for their ferocity.
“How wicked they look,” said
Pauline.
The bulls came closer, and the
girls saw that they were really an
gry-
“Climb a tree,” cried Helene,
swarming up the nearest. Pauline
climbed another close by, and as
the girls reached the first limbs
the bulls charged the trees, butting
them with a force that sent show
ers of nuts dropping to the ground
and nearly shook the girls from
their perches.
Then the bulls backed <-ff, look
ed up at the girls, pawed the earth
bellowed and charged the trees a
gain.
“They will soon go away,” said
Pauline, “butting big trees will
hurt their heads.”
But the bulls’ heads were hard
and well thatched with hair and
they didn’t go aw.iy. They gazed
at the girls and kept on charging
the trees.
After awhile the girls grow
frightened and screamed for help.
Philip Sneider, Farmer Gabler’s
hired man, heard their cries and
came to their aid. He tried to
drive off the bulls by throwing
stones at them. But the animals
paid no attention and kept on but
ting the trees. Sneider paused to
think. As he gazed at the girls he
noticed that they wore red flannel
skirts. He also observed that the
bulls looked up at the skirts every
time they backed away from the
trees. To his experienced mind
this explained everything.
“Let go those skirts,” he cried;
“the bulls see they are red and
will never go away while they are
there.”
“What! Undress!” cried the
girls.
“That’s it,” said Sneider; “its
the only thing for it. I’ll turn my
back.”
Sneider walked away and in a
few moments two red flannel skirts
dropped from two hickory trees,
and two bulls, with tails in air and
heads down, caught the fluttering
garments on their horns, trampled
them, tossed them, gored them and
tore them, and finally rushed off
triumphant.
The girls came down and plead
ed with Sneider to say nothing a
bout it. But Sneider could not
keep the story. Now the girls are
planning a trip to New York city
until after Christmas.

" COULD NOT
BEAR HIS WEIGHT
The Strange Affliction of Little
Wilbur Robinson.
He Stopped Growing-Limbs Became Useless and
He was Unable to Walk—His Cure Brought
About in a Singular Manner.
From the Observer, Ctiarlotte, N. C.
Hearing that a child near Iron Station,
Lincolu County, had been greatly benefited
by the use of Dr, Williams’ Pink Pills for
Pale People, a representative of the Observer
went thither to see and ascertain the extent
of the benefit the child had received.
Riding out on December .5, 1895, to a little
country cottage in the pine woods, a mile
distant from Iron Station, the reporter saw
a bright-faced, young woman, a pure anglo
saxon type with light hair and blue eyes,
standing in the doorway with two plump,
rosy-cheeked children half hiding behind
her dress. Mentioning that he was looking
for a family of Robinsons, the woman
seemed at first a little suspicious.
“ You’re a stranger in my eye,” she said.
“ I am trying to find a cliild named Wil
bur Robinson, who was greatly benefited by
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People.”
The young mother smiled anil a pleased
look came into her eyes as she said “comsin,”
and added, “I guess that’s the one,’’pointing
to the younger of the two little boys.
It was an humble home, the family being
composed of that sturdy farming class that
goes to make up one of the strongest and
truest types of North Carolina’s good people.
The husband, Robert O. Robinson, runs the
farm of 200 acres, but was off to the mill at
the time.
The mother, Carrie L. Robinson, told a
remarkable story of the cure of her little
boy from the effects of la grippe, Iler aged,
white-haired mother, Mrs. Sarah A. Bandy,
sat near and emphasized every word
of the daughter. The little boy, Wilbur,
who owed his recovery to Dr. Williams’
effective remedy, played about tlie house
and yard, and was into every conceivable
kind or mischief. It really seemed that he
must have taken too many of Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills so great was tl»e energy with
which he prosecuted his pranks. Three
times his mother had to stop her conversa
tion and rush out to rescue the reporter’s
bicycle, which was leaning against the house
outside, and with which Wilbur waj be
coming almost too familiar.
This is the story the mother told :
“Wilbur was born August 8, 1893. He
wa~ a stout, healthy boy till he was nearly
five months old. Between Christinas and
New Year’s he took the grippe. A physician
at Iron Station attended him, and he was
supposed to have recovered. But the after
effects of the malady lingered with disas
trous results. In March, 1891, his parents
noticed that he could not stand upon his
feet, although before his taking the grippe
he could do so easily. He could not bear
the weight of his body on his feet; his legs
were not growing any nor the muscle in
them developing. He was not treated, how
ever, till in the fall, about the last of Octo
ber. When Mr. Robinson took his cotton to
Lincolnton, the county seat, he also carried
his baby along, and a Lincolnton physician
prescribed for him, recommending a lotion
for rubbing his limbs. This helped the
child only temporarily. Twice afterward
this physician was consulted. He told the
parents that the child might some day be
able to walk and again he might not. They
would just have to let him “grow along,”
as the mother expressed it, and sec what
developed. At this period the child’s legs
appeared to be shrunken. As his mother'
says they were “as soft as cotton.” Here
was a boy fourteen months old, who not only
could not walk, but could not bear his weight
on his feet.
In some way—they do not know how—a
pamphlet found its way to the Robinson
family. Old Mrs. Bandy fished it out of a
bureau drawer. It had the picture of two
dogs peeping over a fence on one cover, and
on the other a herd of cows drinking in a
cool stream near a bridge. Both on the
fence and on the bridge, on the respective

M. K, Prop.
covers, was this line t “Dr. Williams’ Pink
Pills for Pale People.”
“When I read that those pills would build
up the bone, I felt tliat they were the things
for Wilbur,” said his mother.
“Old Mrs. Bandy sat up nearly all of one
night reading this pamphlet, with all the
testimonials it contained. A few days after
they sent to one of the two village stores
and got two boxes of the pills. This was
about the last of November, 1894. Before
he had finished taking the first box, the
little fellow was able to bear his weight on
his feet, and before the second box was all
gone, he could hold a chair before him and
push it across the floor.
“ We began by giving him a third of a pill
at a time, afterward increasing the dose to
a.half, so they hel l out a long time,” said
his mother. “We commenced the second
box in January, this year. We had to send
to Lincolnton, e’ght n iles away, to get the
next boxes. After taking the third box, in
March, the child began to go a few steps at
a time, but he didn’t walk by himself till
in September. The fourth box, or part of it,
was administered 111 August.”
The testimony of the mother was that the
child’s appetite and, indeed his whole sys
tem was helped by the use of the pills.
Mrs. Bandy, who had been looking over
a sort of diary she keeps, at this point in the
conversation, read this entry: “Sept, the 25th.
Wilbur begins to walk alone by himself.”
“After he once learned to walk,” said his
mother, “we could hardly keep him in sight
of the house, and he was cured by four boxes,
lacking ten pills. Mother says, and always
has said, the Lord directed somebody to
send us that pamphlet of Dr. Williams.”
“You really believe the child’s cure is
due to Dr. Williams’ Pills? ” was asked.
“I am really convinced the pills cured
him,” the mother answered. “I haven’t
the slightest doubt about it.”
And the boy’s grandmother chimed in :
“I’m just as sure of it as I am of living.
I’ll take an oath on the Bible that that is
what did it.”
The neighbors in all the section around
the little village of Iron Station know ar>
talk about the remarkable cure of this baby,
who might have been a cripple for life, had
he r.ot, even at the age of two years, one
month and seventeen days, been enabled to
walk for the first time by the use of Dr.
AVilliams’ Pink Pills for Pale People.
This story may seem to the reader like a
fabrication, but is told as the child’s mol her
tokl it to the .reporter. In order to show
their appreciation, Mrs. Robinson furnished
the following testimonial and signed il. (She
says she ; s willing at any time to make
sworn afflcai'it to her statements):
Iron Station, Lincoln Co., N. C.,
December 5, 1895.
My infant son, 'Wilbur Lee, rendered un
able to learn to walk, by the effects of the
grippe, when he was about five months old,
I hereby testify that he was entirely cured,
and the muscles in his legs developed by

pills. I also state that the above statements
made to the reporter of the Charlotte Obser
