Late in 1861, when Presideat Lincoln.is- swed a call for volunteers, L.d. Clark, of Warren, Trumbull Co., Ohio, was among the first to respond. He joined the mortar fleet of Admiral Porter just before the me- morable operations on the Mississippi River began. It was at the terrific bombardment of the Vicksharg forts..that the hero of this story fell with a shattered arm from a charge of schrapnel. After painful months in the hospital, he recovered sufficiently to be seat to his home a: Warren, Ohio. Another call for troops fired his patriotic zeal and Clark soon en- listed in Company H, of the 7th Ohio Voi- unteers. In the army of the Potomac, he was in many engagements.

In the seventeenth century the aver: pge duration of life was only thirteen years; in the eighteenth, twenty; in the present century it is thirty-six. This great increase in the average length of human life is not, however, an in- dication of an increase in the vigor and vitality of the race, but it is rath- er due to the fact that cholera, the black plague and other devastating gecourges which formerly . overspread whole countries at frequent intervals, sometimes several times during a cen- tury, have been brought more and more under control by improved pub- lic sanitation and quarantine. ' The real test of the vitality of the race is not the average length of human life, but the proportion of centenarians. The proportion of persons who have attained great age is without doubt at the present time much less than ever before in the historv of the world. TUMOR EXPELLED Unqualified Success of T.wyaia B Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. Mrs. ErizaBern WHEELOCK, Magno- lia. Iowa, in the following letter de- seribes her recovery from a very criti- cal condition: “ DEAR MRS. PINkiAM.—I have been taking your Vegetable Compound, and man am now ready to sound its praises. It has done won- ders for me in relieving me * of a tumor. ‘My health has been poor for three years. Change of life was working upon me. 1 was very much bloated and was a bur- gen to myself. Was troubled with smothering spells, also palpitation of the heart and that bearing-down feel- ing, and could not be on my feet much. «1 was growing worse all the time, nntil I took your medicine. After taking three boxes of Lydia £ Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Lozenges, the tumor passed from me. “My health has been better ever since, can now walk quite a distance and am troubled no more with palpita- tion of the heart or bloating. I rec- ommend your medicine to all sufferers from female troubles.” It is hardly reasonable to suppose that any one can doubt the efficiency of Mrs. Pinkham's methods and medi- cine in the face of the tremendous vol- ume of testimony.

The best medical attendance failed to restore his lost strength and vigor. “A friend gave me a box of Dr. Whliams’ Pink Pills for Pale People,” said Dr. Clark, “and they helped me so much that I bought a half dozen boxes and took them. I soon regained my strength, now weigh 190 pounds and, except for injuries that can never be remedied, am as well as ever. “I consider Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People the best remedy to build up a run down system, and heartily recommend them to everyone in heed of such aid.” A Fortune From a Scare. An inventive genius who suffered from attacks by stray dogs when riding his wheel, set his wits to work to devise something which would be an eflica- cious, and yet comparatively harmless, As a result he has brought out and patented a pocket which will shoct ammonia, water or other liquid. The most vie- ious dog cannot withstand a few drops | of ammonia in his mouth or eyes, and yet there is no danger of actually in- juring a valuable animal which might playfully annoy a rider. The weapon has proved so much of a success as a means of defense as well as fun-mak- ing, that the lucky inventor isrealizing much money from his device.

The New York Public Labrary. It is stated in the bulletin of the New York public library that the total! num- ber of periodicals and transactions of societies to which the library is sub- scribing for the year 1898 is 2,502. Of these 483 are American, 497 British, 595 French, 660 German, 125 Italian, 34 Scandinavian, 27 Belgian, 16 Dutch and 12 Russian. During the calendar year ending Dec. 31, 1897, the total number of volumes received by: purchase was 16,008, and by gift 10,128, making a total of 26,226. The total number of volumes catalogued and accessioned during the same period was 20,792. The number of pamphlets actually received during the year, by purchase, was 10,- 350; by gift, 40,247, and the total num- ber catalogued and accessioned was 15,274. The total number of cards writ- ten during the year was 156,925. In addition to this, 15,404 slips from the printer were written, and for each of these slips five printed cards were ob- tained. The total number of cards in the index catalogue, which was open to readers, on the 31st of December, 1887, at the Astor branch was about 80,000, at the I.enox branch it was 27,800.

Almost immediately after the Senate. . convened last Tuesday the resaiution for the annexation of Hawaii was laid before it. Mr. Mitchell (Wis.) declared that the Nation just now was shorn of its judgment, and that the annexation project was a clumsy cover for the sugdr magnates. Mr. White (Cal.), the leader of the opponents of annexation, said that it would not hasten consideration of the Hawalian question that in the Senate no reasons were given to be assigned for action upon it. The resolution, he said, declared that there had been a cession which Congress was to ‘‘accept, ratify and confirm.” He maintained there had been no cession, as there could not have been without the con- currence of both parties. Mr. White contended that the execu- tive would be justified in taking possession of foreign territory only as an act of war and only from the enemy. He characterized the condi- tions on the islands as ‘‘a heterogeneous compound of manifest inefficiency.” Mr. White read among other things an elucidation of the Monroe doctrine, and said the acquisition of the Hawaiian Islands would be the entering wedge of that imperialistic policy which is as foreign to the purposes in view when this Government was organized as are the purposes of the most despotic gov- ernment on earth to our system. Opponents of annexation occupied the attention of the Senate Thursday, Mr. White (Cal.) ridiculed. .the idea that the Hawaiian group was needed by this country as a halfway sta- tion to Manila. He pointed out that from San Francisco it was 41S miles nearer to Manila by way of Unalaska than it was by Honolulu. He said, too, it had been urged that the Hawaiian islands were needed as a defense of the Nicaraguan canal. Honolulu was 4,210 miles from the western terminus of the Nicaragua. canal. He thought it much mere desirable to defend the canal from San Francisco, only 2,700 miles from the terminus, or from San Diego, only 2,200 miies away. If the Paciiic coast is not well defended now, he asked, how can it be made easier to defend by acquiring other ter- i ritory that also must be defended? Mr. White maintained that there would be ‘no impropriety in this Government en- tering a protest against any other na- tion interfering with the present gov- ernment of Hawaii, and in face of such a protest no nation would interfere. “1 had hoped,” said Mr. Pettigrew (S. D.), “that the question of adopting a policy of annexation, or a. policy of | aside until Instead imperialism, might be set the present war is over. to an issue by an interest which has crowded around this capitol for years, that of the sugar trust.” Mr. Petti- grew maintained that the territory of the United States was already large enough. EOQUSE. The House Committee on Weights and Measures Monday favorably re- ported a bill to fix the standard by the adoption of the, metric system of weights and measures, making its use obligatory in the conduct of the Gov- ernment business. The committee says the practical way to make the change is first by the Government in its work, and the people will specdily follow the example. FIFTY DROWNED. The Back Wash From a Launched 8hip Broke Down n Staging Filled With People. The new British battleship Albion was launched from the yards at Black- well last Tuesday. The backwash from the launching vessel surged against and broke down a staging 80 feet long filled with spec- tators, and 300 persons were thrown into the Thames. It is believed that 50 lives were lost. The launching was presided over by the duchess of York. A large and bril- liant company of ladies and gentlemen were present, includirig United States Ambassador Hay and Mrs. Hay. None of the guests was on the stage nor were any prominent persons in- cluded among its unfortunate oc- cupants. The superstitious are already commenting upon the fact that the duchess of York failed to break a bottle of wine as she christened the ship, which they regard as a bad omen. Twenty-five British bottoms have been offered to the war department by their owners and agents for transport purposes. All of these, however, are not yet in the United States ports, but their arrivals have been anticipated with a view to examination as soon as they reach here. CUSTOMARY CHEERS OMITTED. the Misfortunes of Spain Attributed to the Mon- archy by & Republican Leader. The Spanish eabinet met Friday un- der the presidency of the queen regent. Premier Sagasta briefly explained the situation at home and abroad. No fur- ther news was received from the Phil- ippines or from the island of Cuba. The queen signed a decree suspend- ing the cortes. Gen. Correa, the minister said that active operations commenced ‘‘against the troops who were entrenched tiago de Cuba.” Senor Salmeron, the Republican leader, said he wished to have included in the official report his declarations throwing the responsibility for all the misfortunes of the country upon the monarchy. Senor Sagasta at this point rose and read the royal decree suspending parliament. The chamber then adjourned and without the cus- tomary cheers for the throne. Why he Was Defeated. A correspondent of the China Mail has interviewed Admiral Montejo who was defeated by Dewey at Manila. The admiral who was wounded in the leg during the fight said: ‘The respon- sibility of my defeat lies with the gov- ernment at Madrid. There were no proper vessels here. Ever since 1 as- sumed command of the navy station here, I have been asking the govern- ment for ships and torpedoes, nothing came. I constructed some tor- pedoes for myself, but we did not have proper material and they were very bad. I knew from the first that my squadron was being completely de- stroyed. I knew the Americans had men-of-war, whereas my ships were incapable of fighting with any chances of success.” The Theatre a Mighty Weapon. The official text of Emperor Wil- liam’s speech to the company of the royal theater delivered on June 16, has been published. The following are ex- tracts from his majesty’s remarks: “The theater should be the instrument of the monarch and work for the pre- servation of the highest spiritual qual- ities of our noble German Fatherland. The theater is also one of my» weapons. The artists must aid the emperor to serve the cause of ideali with firm confidence in God, and 2 Tn an ae the fight against materialism and the un- German ways to which many of the German playhouses have, unfortunate- ly. alreadv descended.” for wart, would be American at which was | of | that, however, we are being propelled | San- | but: MARKETS PITTSBURG, Grain, fiour and »'eed WHEAT-—No. 1red 7 CORN—No. 2 yellow, ear No. 2 yellow, shelled Mixed ear No. ¢ By oan 1 .

Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade reports as tollows for last week: Very little of the new business seen, in proportion to the aggregate, has been caused by the war. Not any, dis- coverable by ordinary tests, has been prevented by war. Neither has the collapse of the wheat speculation caused the expected decrease of ship- ment for exports continue remarkably large. Gold comes or does «not come as we want it, the world's market be- ing evidently at our command. An of- fering of bonds by the government brings out at the start bids for more than three times the amount offered, while the popular subscription already for three quarters of the amount ex- hibits in strong light the confidence of the people. Wheat ceased to fall and begins to rise in price because foreign needs are not yet satisfied. Atlantic exports for the week were, flour included, 3,246,205 bushels, against 1,445,947 last year and Pacific exports 517,153, against 87,089 last year, and the demand is not of a speculative character. The world’s need of ‘grain is greater than ever, and 213,821,567 bushels of wheat and 207,317,483 bushels of corn have gone, far more than was before ex- ported in one year. falling to $0c¢ for cash.and 77 3-4c¢ for July, wheat rose to 83c¢ for cash and 7c for July, with foreign demand. Corn was steady, without fluctuation, exports being 2,574,723 bushels for the week against 1,660,922 bushels last year. Of other grain, exports have been inus- ually heavy. The industries at the season when stoppages are to be expected maintain production surprisingly. There are very few interruptions on account of labor, and wage scales for the coming vear have nearly all been amicably settled. The-iron industry is very dull at the Kast, with complaints that prices do not rise, but at Pittsburg and the West the works are, getting more business constantly, and are sven competing so sharply thet prices are slightly lower for bars, cut nails, steel rails and gray forge, while south- | ern iron is also offered lower there | than at the Kast. The enormous de- mand from agricultural regions for implements, fencing, cars, equipment and all sorts of building is the noteworthy - feature of this re- markable year. Minor metals are fair- ly steady, with tin at 15.2 cents. Lake copper at $11.75 with 22,741 tons pro- duced in the United States and 6,486 tons abroad in May, and lead is stronger at 3.95 cents, with only mod- erate transactions. Wool is stronger, a shade, 100 quo- tations by Coates Bros. averaging 18.72 cents, .against 18.64 cents in Jone; but because of western demands, which are relatively 4 cents above prices which manufacturers will pay, excepting to fill immediate orders. As the future of the trade is in doubt, though with more hopeful prospects, sales of wool have been in three weeks -ondy 11,695,300 pounds at the three chief markets, against 29,585,100 in the same week last year, and 23,728,200 pounds in the same weeks of 1892. Cotton has weakened three-sixteenths, with ex- cellent crop prospects, but a larger de- mand for goods is seen, though not as vet enough to cause any advance in prices. Reports of distribution are generally encouraging. Failures for the. week have been 285 in the United States, against 216 last vear, and 11 in Canada, against 24 last year. Excursionists Stalled Thirty passenger trains, with more then 3,000 passengers, on the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad. were delayed Wednesday by the wreck of a freight train on the Naugatuck bridge eight miles from Bridgeport. Many of the delayed passengers were en route for the big boat race at New London. Two men are missing. 1t is supposed they were thrown from the rear end of the wrecked train. They are Brakemen McCullough and Dean.
