The nation's last tender offices in honor if her soldier dead brought from distant battlefields and camps tor muster in tin- Bilent army Bleep ufx the sunny slop's ol the Na (ional Cemetery al Ar lington Heights were performed on Thursday uwt. By special order ol the President all oftheQovemmentDepartments were dosed and flus upon all ol tlietiov ern merit buildings were placed at half mast. The ohurch and state represented by those highest in au thority gathered at the grave-side and with bared heads listened to the solemn words that consigned the mortal remains oi the fallen heroes to their final rest. Neyer since the close of the civil war has another so impressive a scene been presented within the great cemetery. Three hundred and thirty six bodies oi officers and enlisted men, but 70 per cent of which were identified; were consigned to their last resting places at onetime. The bodies had been brought from Cuba and Porto Rico, Congress having by special act appropriated the money necessary. Kaeh Ixjdy was incased within a hermetically sealed metallic tsusket. The long rows of graves had Ihtii prepared lor their reception and before the hour of service arriv ed the caskets, each shrouded in a national Hag, were placed each over its open grave in readiness to be lowered. The ceremonies were sol emn, grand and imposing. The files of lT. S. troops in their bright uni forms, the mutlled drums' Bad beat, the impressive remarks made by the clergy, the volleys fired over the graves, and the final Bounding ol 'taps" which consigned the heroes to their last, long rest, all contributed to flic feeling of sadness which per vaded the vast multitude that tilled every available space within hearing distance. As the dead were the nation's heroes the funeral was a distinctly a national tribute. Besides the Chief Executiveoi thenation all the mem bers of his Cabinet excepting Sec. Alger, who is in the West Indies, were present. For the first time in the history of Arlington Cemetery a huge num ber of men were buried in its soil whose war record was established by by lighting in foreign lands. The Sign of the RaJeigh. Anti-expansionists need not flat ter themselves with a notion that the thrill felt by all New York, and by all the country, at the return of the Raleigh was simply because that ship shared in the winning of a sea tight. ( km pared to the broader re sults ol Dewey's victory the battle of Manila is a mere flash in the pan. The Raleigh is welcomed as a sign of the extension ol the prestige, power and dominion ol the United States in a quarter of the world where American power, prestige and dominion were most to le desired at thi-i time. The political results of what the Raleigh did overshadow her actual deed. Of that fact the Am erican people as a whole arc pro foundly and keenly conscious. And they rejoice at it. Welcome to the Raleigh! lie- turning here the first from Dewey's fleet she represents not only one of the most brilliant victories, but one of the most momentous events in the history of the United States, and, considering the state of the great in ternational struggle tor existence, one of the most fortunate. To Stop the Lying A bill has been introduced in the Legislature to require fishermen to swear to the weight of fish caught and pay a tax on same. This bill is aimed at the man who exaggerates as to the weight of the fish he catches, but would not affect the man whose biggest fish always es capes from his hook. Licking All Around. .Some unknown patriot gets off the following ; "I've licked a dozen stamps to-day for telegrams I sent; I licked and stuck one on a bill, j with which I paid my rent. I licked I a stamp to paste upon a note which I renewed, and then I licked another to make the mortgage gotxl. I'vcj licked these stamps to show that I j respect my country's will, and now I I'd like to li k the man who intro duced the bill." Watch Your Change. The Lewistewn hrec Pirn says: We arc reliably informed that an at tempt is to lie made to flood our neighliorhood with counterfeit mon ey. Our informant tells us that $8j 000 in counterfeit currency arrived at this place in one package, and that a consignment of counterfeit dollars and half dollars has also been received. Co.

Hammond, son of a promi nent citizen, filed a suit for divorce against his wife, Ilcrtha, on peculiar grounds. Mrs. Hammond was a Toledo (O.) girl and they wcre mar ried in 1S!G. They lived together until 1897, when Mrs. Hammond declared that she could not endure to live in Wabash, and gave Mr. Hammond the alternative of moving out or consenting to a separation. She averred that she loved him and that her domestic life was as happy as she could wish it, but she didn't want to live in Wabash. Hammond was firm, and she packed up and re turned to her parents. The two years necessary to constitute a case of abandonment, have just expired, hence the action. There are no other grounds alleged. Robbed An Old Lady. Provincetown, Mass., was recently set in an uproar by the report that one of its citizen, Mrs. Thankful Chapman, 74 years old and a native of the town, had lieen the victim of a bold and aggressive robber. Sev eral unsuccessful attempts were made to discover the perpetrator of the crime and recover the stolen prop erty, but it was several weeks before his identity was fully established. In the meantime his victim was suf fering greatly both in body and mind and it was feared she would not sur . vive the shock. In speaking of her condition at the time Mrs. Chapman says : "I Buffered extreme nervousness for some time ; could not sleep : but would lie night after night tossing and rolling about until I would be come completely worn out. At spells ! my mind was greatly contused, and sometimes a numbness would settle down over me and I could not move. i Then I began taking Dr. Miles' Nervine and the very first night I slept like a Dane. 1 got netterirom that day on, and am now enjoying excellent health." Dr. Miles' Nervine is grip's greatest enemy. It drives out the poisonous germs, replenishes the nervous forces, overcomes the exces sive waste of the system and replaets till that disease has rohlxtl it of. It feeds and cures. A trial package of Dr. Miles' fa vorite treatment tor the grip, con sisting of Dr. Miles' Nervine, Dr. Miles' Nerve and Liver Pills, will be sent absolutely free to any person sending name and address on a postal card, requesting the samples and mentioning the name of the Post.
