Cleanse
Your Blood
The thing most desired of a Spring
Medicine is thorough purification
of the blood. With this work o*
eleansing going on there is com¬
plete renovation of every part of
yonr system. Hot only is the cor¬
rupt blood made fresh, bright and
lively, but the stomach also re¬
sponds in better digestion, its
readiness for food at proper times
gives sharp appetite, the kidneys
and liver properly perform their
allotted fnnotions, and there is, in
short, new brain, nerve, mental
and digestive strength.

Charles A. Bans as Head Waiter.
A* I remember our meals, they were
most delightful times for talk, humor,
■wit, and the Interchange of pleasant
nonsense, says Mrs. Ora Gannett Sedg¬
wick in the Atlantic. - When our one
table had grown into three, Charles A.
Dana, who must have been a very ord¬
erly young man, organized a corps of
waiters from among our nicest younfc
people, whose meals were kept bot for
them, and they in their turn were
waited on by those whom they had
served. I recollect seeing Mr. Dana
reading a small Greek book between
the courses, though he was a faithful
waiter. I remember the table talk as
most delightful and profitable to me.
Looking back over a long anu varied
life, I think that I have rarely, if ever
since, sat down with so many men and
women of culture, so thoroughly un¬
selfish, polite, and kind to one another,
as I found at those plain but attractive
tables. All seemed at rest and at their
best. There was no man, tired with
the stock market end his efforts to
make or to increase a big fortune, com¬
ing home harassed or depressed, too
cross or disappointed to talk. There
was no woman vying with others in
French gowns, laces, and diamond*.
The fact that all felt that they were
honored for themselves alone brought
out more Individuality In each, so that
I have often said that I have never
seen any other set of people where each
individual seemed to possess some pe¬
culiar charm.
Going to Bed In India
Going to bed in India is a very dif¬
ferent process from going to bed at
home. To begin with, it is a far less
formal process. There is no shutting
the door, no cutting yourself off from
the outer world, no going upstairs and
finally no getting into bed. You mere¬
ly lie down on your bed, which, with
Its bedding, is so simple ns to ba worth
describing. The bed is a wooden
frame with webbing laced across It,
snd each bed has a thin cotton mat¬
tress. Over this one sheet is spread,
and two pillows go to each bed. That’s
all!—Scottish American.

MANV BRITONS
Five Companies of Roberts’
Troops Are Captured.
THE NEWS DEPRESSES ENGLAND
Queen, Who Is In Ireland, Hears
the Story—Roberts Wires
the Facts. ,
A London special says: Lord Rob
erts reports that five companies ol
British troops have been.captured by
the Baers near Bethany.
The following is the text of his dis¬
patch to the war office announcing
the capture of five companies of his
own troops:
* ‘Bloemfontein, Thursday, April 5.
—Another hnfortnnate occurrence has
occurred, resulting, I fear in the cap¬
ture of a party of infantry consisting
of three companies of the Royal Irish
Fusiliers snd two companies of the
Ninth regiment of mounted infantry
near Reddersburg, a little eastward of
Bethany railway station, within a few
miles of this place. They were sur
ronnded by a stronger force of the en
orny with four or five guns.
“The detachment held out from
noon April 3d, until April 4th at 9 a.
m., arid then, apparently, surrendered,
for it is reported that the firing ceased
at that time. Immediately after I
beard the news, during the afternoon
of April 3d, I ordered Gatacre to pro¬
ceed to Reddersburg from Hpriugfon
tein, his present headquarters, with
all possible speed, and I dispatched
tho Cameron Highlanders henoe to
Bethany. He arrived at Reddersbnrg
at 10:30 o’clock yeaterday morning
without opposition, but oould get no
news of the missing detachment.
There oan be no doubt the whole
party has been made prisoners,”
qCBEN HEARS NEWS.
Lord Robert’s dispatch describing
the disaster at Reddersburg was print¬
ed in the Dublin evening papers and
created general consternation. It
brought the populace with a quiok
turn from the rejoicing over the queen's
visit to the great issues of the war,
and cast a sudden gloom over the
gayety of the party at the castle.
A prominent member of the cabinet,
now in Dublin, when interviewed by
the correspondent of the Associated
Press did not attempt to conceal his
mortification, nor to minimize the
evil effect of such reverses upon the
prestige of the empire abroad. He
attributes it aud others like it of
recent occurrence to a lack of horses
and to the inability of the remounts
sent forward to endure the climate.
He appeared to have no hope of im¬
mediate advance in force.
In the cabinet minister’s statement
there was no criticism of Lord Rob¬
erts, who appears to be trusted im¬
plicitly, but intense irritation and
chagrin are felt that so many “unfor¬
tunate circumstances” should retard
the march to Pretoria.
JUDGE BROWN'S DEFENSE.
Write* a Card In RelstUn to Release ot

United States District Judge Brown
at New York reviewed in an interview
Friday the grouada of his decision in
refusing a bench warrant for the re¬
moval to Georgia of B. D. Greene, J.
F., E. H. and \V. T. Gaynor, indioted
in Savannah in connection with the
frauds carried out by former Captain
Carter. Judge Brown said, among
other things:
"The reported surprise and anger
on account of my decision have, in my
mind, nothing more baok of them
than a passionate feeling down south
that they would like to take these men
by the neck and hustle them off to
trial down there. There is a feeling
that they are swindlers and should be
brought to trial there at onee, where
the witnesses against them are.”

WAS LEGAL EXECUTION.
Garroting of I’ortn Rican Murderers Dll
enssed In Washington.
Beyond the mere announcement that
five criminals were to be exeouted at
Ponce Saturday for murder and out
rage, General Davis, the governor of
Porto Bico, made no representation to
the war department on this sxbject.
The officials are concerned about the
sitnation, mainly because of the meth*
od chosen for the execution of these
criminals—the garrote.
But itr is explained that neither for
the enforcement of the death penalty,
nor for the repulsive method of execu¬
tion are the military authorities re¬
sponsible. These are the results of
the eontinnanee in the island of the
Spanish legal methods, according to
the officials there. Some of the Wash¬
ington officials heartily wish that it
were otherwise in this particnlar case.
There is, however, a marked indispo¬
sition to take any official action that
will tend to incite the latent jealousy
of the islanders over any encroach¬
ment by the national government
upon their cherished customs and
laws, hence the hesitancy to act in the
present instance by commntting the
sentence of the criminals.

BORED ROLES Aa OVER TOWN.
A Farmer* Son Says He DM It te Cara
Himself of latomsla.
Frank Hooley, a farmer’s son has
confessed to being the one who bored
holes in the buildings all over the ham¬
let of Montvllle, Geauga County and in
so doing surfeited that part of Ohio
with mystery and no end of superstiti¬
ous fright, and incidentally of causing
the suicide of one man to whom cir
cumstantlal evidence pointed as the
perpetrator of the deed. Hooley, who
is 19 years old, appeared before Justice
Case and swore to the following story:
“About one year ago I began to be
troubled with insomnia. Later the
trouble became worse and 1 passed
night after night without sleep. When
1 shut my eyes I could see augers. To
the right augers and to the left nothing
but augers. I felt an uncontrollable
desire to bore holes, and was so ner¬
vous that 1 thought I should go crazy.
One night, after trying in vain for sev¬
eral hours to go to sleep, I arose, went
to the barn and bored a hole In one of
the doors. Immediately 1 experienced
a change of feeling and my nervous¬
ness disappeared. 1 went to bed and
slept soundly ail night.
"I had found a remedy for my ills,
but it did not Inst long, and I soon
fouDd that boring holes In the barn
would not bring sleep. 1 felt that I
must try the house, and did. The
neighbors’ houses were perforated.
About one hole to each house, and the
virtue was gone. I make this confes¬
sion because I am sick of the business,
and wish to be taken where I can be
treated for this nameless disease.”
’The announcement of this strange
statement has made a sensation sec¬
ond only to the discovery of the holes.
For weeks after the discovery was
made the Mttle settlement was In a
fever of excitement. Residents were
utterly at a loss to explain the purpose
of the borings. A hole had been bored
through the outslds wall of every
dwelling in the village except two, and
In a few houses two holes were bored.
Hooley is 6 feet tall and unusually
thin. His shoulders are bent and his
eyes sunken.
SHIP’S CHRONOMETERS.
Seois ol tbe Tests to Which They aro
Subjected.
There is a popular belief that crono
meters, those delicate pieces of me¬
chanism which enuble the mariner to
tell to a nicety where he is upon the
ocean, are made only in England. One
will be told even In Maiden Lane that
England is chronometer-maker to the
world. This was true at one time, but
now, according to shipmasters, Ameri¬
ca turns out excellent chronometers.
There are, however, only three Ameri¬
can makers as against numerous Brit¬
ish firms. Many of the Instruments in
use in the United States Navy are of
American make. These chronometers
are purchased on trial. The delicate
instrument is subjected to extremes of
temperature, by mean* of which Its
variations are ascertained. No instru¬
ment leaves the maker’s hands until it
has been thoroughly tested, or before
it Is three years old. In this period
there is ample opportunity for develop¬
ing Its peculiarities. When It is under¬
stood that an error of four seconds on
the part of the chronometer will put a
'skipper a mile out of his course the
necessity of the most careful and thor¬
ough test Is apparent
Even when an Instrument has been
tested to the satisfaction of the ex¬
perts, and has been finally adjusted,
only a skilled man can he allowed to
carry It from the workshop to the ship.
One firm alone has a dozen of these
carriers constantly employed. They
are not of course, dealing all the time
with new chronometers; there are from
400 to 500 always In stock from ships
arriving in the port of New York from
all parts of the world. As soon as n
ship comes into port its chronometer is
usually sent ashore for rating, that is
to say, It is carefully observed until
the ship is ready to sail, when the
variation Is reported to the captain,
who cam then make his calculations ac¬
cordingly. The chronometers of the
transatlantic liners are sent ashore for
rating every time they come Into port.
The greatest care is taken of chrono¬
meters on board ship, and on all first
c,aM ships ,. therc are usually „ three ’ ouo
beln * for deck observations. The most
f erf « ct one of the ,ot is usual,y placed
in a dry but well-ventilated apartment
amidships, where it is firmly screwed
down, and should there be fear of
dampness, wrapped In a heavy woolen
blanket. On the government vessels
the chronometer Is placed In a case
lined and padded with curled hair,
which keeps It from being Jarred. The
smnllest speck of rust on the balance¬
spring might cause a chronometer to
lose its accuracy. A first-class chrono¬
meter costs $250 and one of the same
grade capable of telegraphing its own
time, sells at $450.—New York Post.
Tbe Carrot
The carrot has never attained in this
country that measure of usefulness
and distinction which belong to It in
some other parts of the world, but Is
regarded rather as a plebeian vegeta¬
ble, not fit to appear with those seen
In good society. How It fell Into Its
low estate It is bard to understand,
for It has not always been thus. In
the East, where It originated, it serves
in many dishes, and long ago it was
used in England as an ornament, at
least in part. The leaves of the car¬
rot are fernlike, but do not wilt as
easily as ferns, and the ladles of the
court of King Charles I. made them
serve In the place of plumes in dress¬
ing the hair.
The carrot has great virtues as a pre
nervative of the health, and the-fre¬
quent eating of it Is said to add to the
beauty of the skin, bringing a soft,
satiny quality to it Cattlemen know
that it is good for stock. It forms
blood, so the country women tell ns.
Its roots mashed make an excellent
poultice for inflammatory surfaces.—

NEW USE OF EXHAUST.
Ifew Waste Steam May Rea An Auxiliary
Engine.
For many years It has been known
Shat the steam engine did not utilize
all Its energies. The ordinary high
pressure engine which discharged Its
pxhaust steam into the air used hardly
more than 6 per cent, of the value of
|the fuel burned under its boiler. The
compound engine, which condenses its
steam and returned the warm water to
tha boilers, used only 12 to 13 per cent,
pf the fuel energy. Here ingenuity
iseemed to stop until a device was In¬
vented for using the heat of the ex¬
haust steam to evaporate another
liquid, which, having a lower boiling
point than water, required less heat
for tho process than does water.
This process Is the joint discovery
of G. Bchrend, a Hamburg engineer,
and Dr. Zimmermann of Ludwlgshaf
cn, and It gains as high as 56 per cent,
additional motive power without in¬
creasing the expenditure of fuel. The
liquid they chose for evaporation la
sulphurous acid, which is cheap, easily
obtained, and is so oily that it lubri¬
cates the inner working surfaces of
the machinery without corroding them.
The steam passes into the surface con¬
denser or vaporizer, in which the cool¬
ing medium, instead of being water, is
liquid sulphurous acid, the boiling point
of which is so low that the liquid is
decomposed immediately by the heat
of tho exhaust steam, liberating sul¬
phur dioxide gas. This gas passes
over Into the cylinder of an auxiliary
engine, where its work Is done as in an
ordinary steam engine. Then the sul¬
phurous vapor enters the surface con¬
denser, Is condensed to liquid by cold
water tubes and is forced by a pump
back into the vaporizer to do its work
over agafn.
With a fairly economical compound
engine, using 18!4 pounds of steam for
each indicated horse-power hour, half
an indicated horse-power can be pro¬
duced In the auxiliary machine for
every indicated horse-power developed
in the main engine.
Easy Way of Telling Time.
It was about ten minutes before clos¬
ing time in the City Clerk’s office—the
busiest period of the day—the other af¬
ternoon, and Chief Clerk George Gas¬
ton was making the ink fly at a lively
rate.
“Ting-a-llng-ling!”
It was the telephone at the far side of
the room. Gaston dropped his pen and
rushed to the Instrument.
“Is this the City Hall?” queried a
soft, feminine voice at the other end of
the line.
The frown on the clerk’s face soft¬
ened. In dulcet tone he informed the
fair inquirer that it was.
“Will you please tell me what time
it is? You see, our clock lias stopped,
and the walks are so wet that I hated
to step out; and I thought if I called
up the Cify Hall I’d get the right time,
boeause if I’u late with supper my hus¬
band-”
“Ten minutes to 4, ma'am! Three
fifty. Yes, ten minutes to 4. Goodby
—net at all—a real pleasure, I assure
you.”
But ns the clerk went back to his
desk he looked tired.—Detroit Journal.

“Oh, yes, i remember her perfectly,”
replied Gagster.

Why She Kept the Map.
A householder In London recently
noticed that his cook had stuck up in
her kitchen a map of South Africa,
with the British possessions colored
red, the Transvaal brown, the Orange

sir,” replied the cook, ‘‘but I mean to
