I could not con- - trnl mtf IridnAee And X -"i what came from me was filled with mucus and blood. An Albany doctor was to me, and said my home doctor could take care of me after. I saw an advertisement of Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy, which seemed to fit my case, so I decided to try that before I submitted to the operation. I begnn Its nse.

OX THE SPANISH MAIN Our mate in the Caspian, Mr. Bar clay, used to tell of the following ad venture. I have sometimes thougnt Hint he possessed a talent for embel lishing, and I do not, therefore, vouch for Its truth. But I have been careful to "nothing extrnuate, Cor aught s!t down to malice." "When I was on my first voyage in the whaler Marion, I pot Infected, like many other young fellows, with the desire to run away and try my luck elsewhere. And I listened to the se ductive stories of Tom Babson, an ad venturer, who had led a harum scarum life, knocking about In the Pa cific, nnd in the various porls on the Ppanish Main, till I convinced myself tbnt we were a n.ucli abused ship's com pany, and that any change would be for the better. "While lying In the port of I'ayta, In Peru, we got acquainted on shore wlih some seamen belonging to a ten gun brig, called the Tres Amlgos. She was fitting out to go and fight some body I never knew exactly who, for thesfl South American republics were always In a row I think they hardly knew themselves what It wna all about. But there was change and adventure In It, at any rate; and Tom and I laid a plan to desert from the Marion, and get a couple of doubloons advance by en llBting In the cruiBer. "At various times during our stay we contrived to smuggle nearly all our clothes on shore, and left them with a shark called Scotch Jock, who kept a little pulgueria, or grog-shop; and the last liberty-day that we were to have we left the ship In the morning, not Intending to return to her. "We went to the rendezvous where they shipped men for the brig, and found, much to our disappointment, that the wages were not bo large as had been represented, and that only one doubloon would be advanced Instead of two. "I began to perceive that all that glittered In a beach-comber's story was not gold; but we had gone so far that we disliked to turn back; and we should hardly be able to get our clothes back from Jock, for his object was to have us desert and spend our advance money In hla tavern. "So Tom Babson proposed that we should not ship Immediately to the Pe ruvian man-of-war, but hide away un til the Marion bad gone to sea. and then take our chance of something bet ter. We could, at all events, take -ip with the offer of the rendezvous as a last resort. "There was no occasion for us to hide away before nightfall, for our leave lasted . until sundown. I took good care to keep sober, but my com rade drank so freely that be was stretched out In Scotch Jock's back room before the day's leave wag up, qime oblivions of everything. "When the boat came In for the lib erty men at sunset, I got out of sight, where I could reconnolter, and saw one after another of my shipmates go down and take their places in her. I felt lonely to set my sober second-thought to work; and the result was I deter mined to stick by the Marion, and let Tom Babson go his own reckless road. 'The boat was in the very act of pushing off when, obeying the voice of this better angel, I ran shouting down the pier. The officer waited for me and, as I jumped in said: 'All on hand but Tom Babson. Where Is he? Does anybody know?' "I alone knew; but though I had re pented my own foolishness, I had no idea of turning informer. So Tom was left behind and the next morning a new hand was shipped In his stead. "We were very lucky In takln whales; and in a year afterward we anchored at Tumbez, with a full ship and, after taking in our water, went up to f'ayta, to enjoy our liberty and refit for the paRsage home. I had almost ceased to think about Tom, and had no thought of finding him there.more than In any other part of the world; know ing his life to be that of a mere ad venturer. "But one day, while strolling about, I passed what I took to be a prison or guard-house, where a sentry was pac ing back and forth, when I heard my name called from a loophole. "I stopped in astonibhiuent and stared at a face pressing up against the opening, which I did not at onca rec ognize. " 'Who Is It that knows me?' I ask-vl. " 'Don't you remember your comrade, Tom BabBon?' "1 walked up to the loop to push my band in, but the s.'utluel interposed a little. Insignificant-looking Cliolo, as the half-Spaniuh, Lalf-lodian are called on the coast. I took his measure at stance; a few SpanUh words wbUpired, c.ud( mor yet, few iiivr realm i'jn played to his avaricious gaze, and the const was clear. . He even hinted to me that If 1 would pass round to another pigeon hole on the other side I could talk with the prisoner witnont being observed. I as not slow to take the hint; and after a shake of the hand, Tom told me his sad story, peeping through the little loop like a postnfilce clerk. ' He had, it seems, waited and search- In vain for me after he got over his revel, until he was satisfied that I must have gone to sea in the ship, when he took charge of the two stocks of cloth ing, which were transferred to Scotch Jock's hands for liquor and board. 'A few days were sufficient to wear out his welcome thera. He was forced, after all, to ship In the Tres Amlgos, man-of-war, and the landlord got the lion's share of the ad vance doubloon. 'Tom wna soon convinced that the Peruvian naval service was not what U had been described; and he as well as several other English i.dventurers, w re heartily bIck of their bargain, and de termined to back out of It at the first opportunity. "So, having been sent Inshore on some sort of spy service, under the command of a young middy, they toik charge of the boat themselves, put the officer on the beach, and started down the coast to leeward. 'After many strange adventures and dreadful sufferings they landed at the Galapagos Isinnds, and, as might be expected, they soon became scattered, joining different ships. Tom had been In half a dozen vessels during a year's time; and, feeling quite safe, had come ashore In Tayta, a few days before, from a coasting craft in which he was employed. He had hardly landed when he was recognized by one of the former officers of the man-of-war. He was ar rested and tried by a hasty court-martial, where the little middy himself wag brought forward, and, glad enough for this chance for revenge, swore to Tom's Identity. 'He was at once found guilty of hav ing mutined, deposed his superior offi cer, laid violent hands upon him, and turned him ashore in a hostile terri tory. He was sentenced to death. ' 'Next Monday,' said he, 'I am to be led out at sunrise, stood up in thet cor ner there at the angle of the wall,and shot by a platoon of hese Cholo scare crows. "You may imagine how I congratu lated myself that I had been so sudden ly led to think better of our mad scheme and to return to my duty on board the Marlon. But what could I say to com fort my misguided shipmate? In three days, for It was then Friday morning, he would be put to death; there wes no hope of pardon or reprieve. 'But the second mate, after hearing my story, entered Into the thing heart ana soul. It was too bad to seen an old shipmate made a target of In that man ner, he said, by a crowd of human mon keys, like these Choios; and by a little management and a few dollars used In bribes, he thought he might save Tom from his fate and run him oft the beach. He went ashore with me the same even ing, and we managed anotuer interview with the prisoner at his pigeon-hole. and cheered him up with a hope of de liverance, giving him eome Idea, too, of our plan of affecting it, that he might be prepared to act in co-operation. "We smuggled a coll of rope ashore on Sunday, and concealed li in a pile of rubbish, convenient to the placo where It was to be used. We were stirring early on the morning appoint ed for the execution, and landed with a picked crew before daylight. No par ticular notice was taken of our move ments, as we were supposed to have been Impelled by a natural curiosity to see the man shot; and we mingled with the other spectators without sus picion, keeping always near each other, however, and ready to communicate oy ignals previously agreed upon. "We saw Tom led forth from the guardhouse by a file of the soldiers, and marched across the yard to the place of execution, riere he stood up like a man who had nerved himself to meet his death without flinching; and, as he braced himself against the mud wall in the corner, his calmness extorted ad miration from his jailers. "Sunrise was the time fixed for the execution to take place; but, with a re finement of cruelty worthy of Peruvi ans, he had oeen brought out and led to his post an hour before that time. "This circumstance, however, was fa vorable for our project, as it was now just on the gray of the morning, be tween daybreak and full daylight. "The Cholo officer ana his file of men withdrew to the other side of the yard, after having a ler having set poor Tom after having set poor Tom up for a tar- get, as one might say. The firing party had not yet come on the ground and now was our time. "The wall at the angle where the condemned man stood was about nine feet high, so that his guards had no fear of his being able to climb It, when they fell back and left him there; but they little dreamed what was going on the other side of It. We were-able tc communicate in low tones through a chink or crack, and Tom, watching a favorable opportunity, gave the wori in a whisper, 'Now.' "At the signal, the rope, with a bow line knot of suitable size ready tied at the end, was tossed silently over the wall. In the dusky morning twilight, this operation couli not be seen by the soldiers, or by the spectators who had gathered on the opposite side of the Inclo6ure. Tom, whose handa had been left free, in deference to bis own re quest, and sheer admiration of bis sup posed courage to meet hla fate like a hero, slipped the bow line down over his body, and placing himself aa In a 'boatswain's cnair,' he gave the signal by a slight jerk. "Our whole souls, a it may be sup posed, were In the muscles of our arms, and his sligut Jerk was responded to by one which lifted him Into the air as it be had been a child. His hands grasped the top of the wall, and quick' er than a nash, it seemed, he waa over. and dropped among his shipmates. "'Carambo!' was the exclamation from the guards, as they caught a glimpse of bia form against the sky, over the wall. "Stupid half-breeds aa they were, they rushed to the spot to assure them selves that be was really gone 8'id tken rushed back again. But mean while, the word had sprung among tin lookers-on, and many were ahead of the soldiers in the pursuit. As they had a considerable circuit to make be fore they could even See the scene of our operations, we had time for a good stnrt, and made the most of it. We had mode straight for our boat, which we had taken rare to have aU ready for a start on the Instant, the oars be ing 'peaked' in the rowlocks, and a boy left In her to keep her. off from the landing-place. He did his duty, like all the rest; and each man, dropping upon his own thwart as he arrived, a vigorous shove sent her well tinder headway before the howling crowd of pursuers reached Iho water Bide. " 'Give way, my lads!' said the second mate, wild with excitement " "The captain will have to give ni up again. If you take me aboard,' said the condemned man. ""Not he! The foretopsail Is loosed now, and he got' his clearance papers last night. We'll be under way for home before these Choios get their eyes fairly open!' "The firing platoon at this moment turned a corner, coming at a double quick pace. They rushed, all out of breath, down the pier, and brought their muskets to a 'ready' at the order of a little bewhlskered officer, whose voice, jerking out Spanish oaths, seemed the most formidable part of him. "But we had already a safe offing, and their bullets rattled harmlessly in the water on either side of us. Several other spattering shots followed, but equally Impotent aa the first ones, for we had not lost a stroke In our pulling, and the oars were doing their best In the nervous grasp of trained whale men. , "The Marlon was already casting her head seaward when we shot alongside; and as the head-yards were braced full, she gathered rapid heaflway. Never was canvas handled quicker in making sail than it waa that morning by us. Two or three boats were seen to push out In pursuit; but they might as well have saved their labor, and given up the chase as soon as the Bun showed at what rate we were leaving them astern. "That was the nearest that 'I ever came to running away from a ship; for, you may be sure, the lesson was not lost upon me. I think Tom Babson al ways gave the whole Spanish Mnln a wide berth afterward. He would not even venture round the Western Horn atjain, but shipped for an Indian voy age as soon bb we arrived in England. Dtrey Inr In Mont pi-llrr, Vt. When Dewey day was celebrated in Montpelier, Vt., the birthplace of that hero, the staid old place took on an un accustomed look of hilarity and liveli ness. As the order had gone forth from "headquarters" that no arrests for drunkenness were to be made that day. the ' Inhabitants of the "temperance town" felt that they could be "real devilish" for once, and the drug stores sold dozens of bottles of Jamaica gin ger, the favorite tipple In a state where the sale of anything stronger than cl der three weeks old Is prohibited by law. The schoolhouse where Dewey went to school Is still standing on one of the streetB of Montpelier. It has been through many vicissitudes, has been a public school, a parochial school, and Is now a tenement house. On Dewey day every window had a flag In it, and the old building was cov ered with bunting and glory. Early In the morning a man was seen coming down the principal street of the town carrying a long piece of canvas under his arm. Something in his man ner, which was at once mysterious and Important, roused the curiosity of fhe reporter, who asked him where he was going. 'To the Dewey silioolhouse," an- Bweied the man. "We're going to put this on the front." He then unrolled the canvaB, which bore this legend In huge black letters: Here's where his young ideas were taught to Shoot!" Mr. !Hill!il' mil. The traveling man who had been royally entertained by the prosperous farmer In tbe outskirts of the little town, where the only hotel had burned down a few days before, was a little uncertain when about to depart wheth er he should simply return his thanks or risk offending his host by offering pay. 'You have placed me under great obligations, Mr. Millsaps," he said: When I come in from a trip of this kind I am accustomed to turning In an expense account, and it seems to me I ought to have put down In It some thing pretty handsome for the excellent entertainment I have had at your house."

Out of the front door stepped a bare-headed gen tleman. Said he: "You are evidently looking for something. Do you wish to see any one In particular?" "Yes, sir," said the officer In charge; "we are looking for Confederates, and want them."
