The statisticsof coal production by

ant adjunct to utmi! poiier Spain is
one of tile nio-t dependent of all na
tions. In lS'JS she produced 1,833.000
tons and imported 1,818.000 tons, mak
ing her home prod nut ion only one-half
of her consumption in time of peace.
Other nntions whicli import coal are
France. 0,038 000 tons ; Italy, 1.0B3.000
tons : Austria-Hungary, -1,800,000 tons:
Canada, 2,301,000 tons; Itussia.

Great Britain, Germany, Belgium,
New South Wales, the United States
and Japan are exporters of fuel. It
is a remarkable fact that the cost of
coal ot the mine was in that year only
$1.10 in tile United States, as agaiuot
$1 33 in Great Britain and $1.-18 in

PARSNIP COMPLEXION.
It does not require an expert to detect the I
sufferer from kidney trouble. The hollow
cheeks, the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy
circles under the eyes, the sallow parsnip
colored complexion indicates it.
A physician would ask if you had rheuma
tism, a dull pain or ache in the back or over
the hips, stomach trouble, desire to utinato
often, or a burning or scalding in passing it ;
if after passing there is an unsatisfied feeling
as if it must be at once repeated, or if the
urine lias a brick dust deposit or strong odor.
When these symptoms are present, no
time should be lost in removing the cause.
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the
bladder, inflammation, causing stoppage, and
sometimes requiring the drawing oi me
urine with instruments, 6r may run into
Ilright's Disease, the most dangerous stage of
kidney trouble.

WARSHIPS FOR HAVANA.

of HIotoiiK Outbreak.
Washington, Dec. 14. The Brooklyn,
Texas, Castine and Itesolute have been
ordered to Havana, While there Is not
the faintest desire to convey a threat
in the dispatch of these warships to
Havana, it may be noted that when
they lie within tho harbor they will
hold the town in perfect subjection. It
Is surmised that the suggestion came
from Admiral Sampson, who Is now In
pne of the suburbs of Havana, as a
result of the unfortunate eruption on
Sunday night at tuo Hotel Iiiglatena.
At any rate the event brought the
authorities to a sudden realization of
the oxact stato of affairs In Havana,
ana
and the Imminent danger of another
pucn outbreak, which perhaps might
run Into the proportions of a riot and
cost many Innocent lives. With only
a small force of American soldiers In

at such a distance from the city as to

MAMMOTH TANK COLLAPSES,
Tlu-eo Known Dead ntul Mnny S'cnrly
Drowned by 11 SI11I1I011 Plood,
New York, Dec. 11. The great steel
gas tank of the Consolidated Gas com
pany, nt Avnnue A and Twentieth
sticet, the largest of Its kind in the
world, collapsed late yesterday after
noon. It went down with a crush and
a roar like a great explosion. Masonry
of granite blocks and bricks to the
height of CO feet fell like a child's toy
house of blocks, loosened from bondage
8,000,000 gallons of water, deluged the
streets and In a ten foot tidal wave car
ried denth and destruction through the
surrounding neighborhood. It Is not
known how many were killed and In
jured. Tho list of Injured Is very large.
The dead so far recovered are: An
drew Wendt, workman; Pious Baum,
engineer In adjacent factory; John
Gray, 75 years old. George Bremer, a
timekeeper, and in-year-old George
Winkle are doubtless burned beneath
tho ruins, as well as others.
The Injured are: John Gray, 75 years
old, watchman, skull fractured, will
probably die; Catherine O'Conncll, t
years old, leg fractured; Mary Ann
O'Connell, 19, body badly lacerated;
Timothy Dunn, 55, general contusions
and submersion by water; John Wag
ner, 38. general contusions; William
Kune, face lacerated, general con
tusions; Charles Qulgg, 29, Brooklyn,
severely Injured about body and face;
Peter Walker, dislocated shoulder.
About 15 others, so far as has' been
learned, were Injured more or less se
verely or almost drowned. All of the
most severely Injured were taken to
Bellevue hospital by a number of am
bulances that came to the scene of the
disaster In answer to a general call.
James O'Connor, foreman In Fuld
ner's factory, adjoining, und believed
to have been In the basement with En
gineer Baum, who was killed, Is miss
ing, Mnny people were caught In the
streets by the rushing waters and were
hurled hither and thither, receiving in
juries of various kinds.
W. J. Logan, of the Logan Iron works,
of Greenpolnt, L. I the contractor who
was building the tank, was placed
under arrest. William H. Bradley,
chief engineer of the Consolidated Gas
company, and said to be Jointly respon
sible for the work with Contractor Lo
gan, was also placed under arrest. Both
were charged with homicide, and their
bail was placed at $10,000 each.
The collapse of the tank caused the
rupture of some of tho great water
mains which were constructed to feed
It, nnd for some time these poured
their torrents Into the street.

What do the Children Drink ?
Don't give them tea or coffee. Have you tried
the new food drink called GRAIN-O? It is
delicious and nourishing aud takes the place
of coffee. The more Grain-0 you give the
children the more health you distribute
through their systems. Graiu-0 is made of
pure grairs, and when properly prepared
tastes like the choice grades of coffee but
costs about 1-4 as much. All grocers sell it.

Will receive prompt attentiou.
Dr. Jui ksou points to
t ie startling fact that
there are now 20 million
Catarrh victims in this
country and the number
rapidly increasing. It
has already become the
National Disease. Arc
we to become a nation of
Catarrhites ? It looks
like it.
The Aboriginal Indlalis are said not to have
known the disease. That proves It is not caused
by our climate aud must have been Imported.
Its growth was slow but persistent. Forty
years ago there were less thau 40.000 cases lu
the U. H.. to-day there are 20 mllllou. Soon
there will be 80 million, Where Is It to eudr
Hhall we not awake till It has fastened Its fangs
on every man, woman and child lu the l.ii:df
How shall we prevent It unless we take Immed
iate and vigorous steps to stamp out the plague?
This putrid disease knows no sex, no cfnss, no
station. It U everywhere. A germ (microbe)
disease It spreads by contagion. The carlon
breath and expectoration of tiie poor victim are
loaded with these microbe. Others breath them
lu, they find lodgement and never release their
hold lilt the victim lies down lu death, unless
every microbe is killed. But can they be killed?
Yes, but not by any "blood medicine." No Ca
tarrh germ was ever found lu the blood. The
trouble is local and must be treated locally. A
balsam has been discovered that Is sure death
to the Catarrh microbe, making a radical and
permanent cure. It la Brazilian Balm. It has
cured tens of thousands lu the past 15 years. 7
also cures nil the troubles caused by Catarrl.
as Sore Throat, Old Coughs, Bronchitis, Asthma
and I.uug troubles. The swallowing of the
Catarrh pus makes the Stomach raw aud ulcer
ated. Tiie Brazilian Balm soon makes a radical
cure of the Stomach and alimentary canal. H
is the cheapest remedy on the market, a $1.00
bottle containing a whole month's treatment.
As all sufferers with Catarrh and Asthma have
run-down systems we will till January next put
a mouth's treatment of Toxlcola Tablets, free,
la with every $1.00 bottle of Brazilian Balm.
This Is the best Tonic aud nerve and strength
builder known. You get all for $1.00, a month's
treatment of both. Now Is the time to treat
your Catarrh. Do not delay. Ask your druggist
and take no substitute. If he will cot get it,
send direct to us. B. P. J ckboh it Co., M't'g.
