There is only ono wny to euro catarrh
and that is by giving the body nutritious
Coed , proper clothing , regular habits nnd
pure air to breathe , supplemented by such
remedies aa will keep the temperature of the
body normal nnd evenly distributed. To
unlff up irritating inhalants is merely to
dislodge a quantity of mucous nnd to
nbuso and Irritate still farther , the Inflamed
mucous membranes.
Hero la an Interesting experiment. Put
the feet in n vessel ot hot water , cover the
choulders and'body with a woolen blanket ,
ind then take a hot drink Into tbo stomach ,
When the feet have absorbed tbo heat of the
water or what Is more scientific , have become -
como equally as warm as water , get
Into \ bed and perspire freely. If
you are a catarrh sufferer you will experi
ence a sudden clearance of the air passaged
and will breathe without difficulty. This
ought to convince any one that catarrh can
never bo reached by sniffing things into the
nose , There IB a remedy known as Gauss'
Catarrh Tablets that gives the same general

comfort or danger of taking more cold , or

The law applying to the vlco president
was enacted January 18 , 1SS6 , by the Forty-
ninth congress , first session. The main fea
tures nro PS follows :
"Ho It enacted , etc. , that In case of re
moval , death , resignation or Inability ot
both the president nnd vice president of the
United States , the secretary of state or
secretary of the treasury , or secretary of
war , or nttorney general , or postmaster
general , or secretary of the nnvy , or
secretary of the Interior shall act ns presi
dent until the disability ot the president or
vlco president is removed , or a president
shall bo elected. "
The law further provides that when ono
of Iho nbovo cabinet officers succeeds to the
presidency ho shall call a special session ot
congress. A proviso limits the succession to
these who would bo eligible to the presi
dency under the terms of the constitution
who have bron appointed with the ndvlco
nnd consent qf the scnnte. "fho effect of the
law la not to provide n succession to the
vlco presidency , but merely to secure n sue-
ccrsion to the presidency.
Ily the death ot Mr. Hobart , Senntor Wil
liam P. Kryo of iMnlne becomee president
pro tcmporo of the scnnto nnd will dis
charge nil the duties of the vice president
ns presiding officer ot that body , The senate
rules specifically provide that no election is
necessary at the beginning of the session.
Senator Frye , accordingly , will continue ns
presiding officer till the end of President
McKlnlcy's administration , unless ho
chooses to resign or the senate wishes to
elect another senator to tlio ofllce.
A curious coincidence of the death of Vlco
President Hobnrt Is found In the fact that
of the nix vlcu prfsldents who have died In
office Jour died within n few dnrs ot the
same day of the month in the year of their
deaths , the dcatli of Mr. Hobart being No
vember 21 , 1899 ; that of Mr. Wilson Novem
ber 22 , 1876 ; that of Elbrldgo Gerry Novem
ber 23 , 1814 , nnd that of Mr. Hendrlcks No
vember 25 , 18S5. The other two vice presi
dents who died in office were Clinton nnd
King. The former died April 20 , 1812 , nnd
the latter April 17 , 1853.
From dispatches received by Colonel
Bright , the sergcant-at-nrms of the eenatc ,
there will bo a largo representation of mem
bers of that body nt the vlco president's fun
crnl. About thirty senators have replied to
the telegram sent nt the direction of Proal-
ijnt ( pro tern ) Frye , informing them ot their
selection as members of the committee to at-
end the funeral. Twenty-four have prom-
scd to bo present. They are ns follows :

Colonel Bright will go to Patcrson in a
day or two to render any assistance he may
n the funeral preparations so far as the
senate Is concerned.
Clerk McDowell of the house of represen-
atlvoj arrived during the afternoon. Aa
ho result of a consultation with prospective
Speaker Henderson ho will make arrange
ments for a committee ot the house to at-
cnd the funeral. This will include such
members of the body as may be in the city

WAHINGTON , Nov. 21. All the Hags in
Wnshington are halfmasted out of respect
o the memory of Vice-President Hobart.
fho announcement of the vice president's
leathwhile not unexpected , came as a dis-
Inct shock and cast a deep gloom over the
city where ho was loved and honored. The
news was first received at the White house
en minutes before nine o'clock in a private
message from Paterson. The flag over the
executive mansion was Immediately hauled
down to half mast and the doors of the
mansion closed to the public. The president
vas deeply affected by the telegram an-
louncing his colleague's death , and at once
.ispatched . a telegram conveying the sym
pathy and consolation of himself and Mrs.
McKinley to Mrs. Hobart. Meantime the
news had been bulletined by all newspaper
fllces and the whole city was soon mourning
he loss of the vice president.
Secretary of State. Hay , upon whom the
succession to the vlco presidency now falls ,
heard the news on his arrival at the State
department , and he immediately repaired lo
ho White house. Meanwhile Senator Fair-
lanks of Indiana and Senator Foster of
Vashington had Joined the president and
were with him when Secretary Hay arrived.
The secretary was visibly affected. He said
no arrangements had been made , but the
resident nnd all the members of his cabinet
vould attend the funeral. President McKln-
ey was deeply moved and when Senator
Mlrbanks had left lie Joined Mrs. McKinley
n his private apartments. His close and
ntimato relations with his colleague made
Urn feel the vlco president's death ns a
great personal bereavement. Mrs. McKinley
vns greatly affected. She gave way to her
; rlef and sobbed convulsively. Mrs , Mc-
Cinley has but few intimates here , and
among her most cherished friends were the
vlco president and Mrs. Hobart. President
iIcKinlcy did all ho could to comfort his
wife , and did not return to his office until
ho members of the cabinet began to arrive.
' /ho members , of the cabinet wcro made ac
quainted with the sad .news' as soon as the
> rcsldcnt himself was Informed by means at
elephone from the White House. Secretary
lay hastened over to the White House and
ind a private conference with tbo president
and then returned to the State department
o give orders for the execution of the official
irogram BO far as the government is con-
erned. At first Mr. Hay sent a private mes
sage to Mrs. Hobart , expressing his sincere
ondolencc , and then gave his attention to
ho preparation of a proclamation announc-
n g the death of the vlco president to the
people of the United States , It was also
necessary to convey the information to the
nations of the world ,
This was the day of the regular cabinet
meeting and tbo members gathered at the
Vhlto House at 11 o'clock , but the death of
ho vlco president overshadowed all else nnd
lubllc bU3inc03 woe not mentioned. All the
momberc of the cabinet , especially Attorney
icnornl Grlggs , showed the emotion which
liey'felt. Attorney General Grlggs said ho
'
vould 'leavo for Paterson Immediately after
ho cabinet meeting , The attorney general
nd Vjco President Hobart were probably as
lose aa any two men in public life In this
administration ,
Mr , Gngo , the secretary of the treasury ,
aid : "He was n noble Illustration of the
yplcal American , Educated in our schools ,
ila mind was broadened and ripened by tbo
iractlcal discipline which comes from tbo
mrdens and responsibilities of active bust-
ices life. Though closely associated In largo
affairs , ho kept unsullied those high ideals
which are inseparable from a true love of
ustlco and equity. He was GO kind In the
general expression of his personality as to
win immediately tbo affectionate regard of
every one fortunate enough to come Into
olations with him , While his political con
victions were firmly held , he was just and
onslderate to his political opponents and
mong those who will cherish his memory
ho longest are those who radically differed
vltli him in his political creed.
"To that largo group who knew him in the
ntlmacy of social life , his taklng-off will
irlng u grovlous eenso of Irreparable loss ,
n bla death the country loses a sagacious
tatecman , whose departure will be mourned
) ) nil his political associates , without regard
o party affiliations. "
Sergeant-at-Arms Bright of the senate bu
been In communication with the vlco presi
dent's private- secretary during the greater
part of the day , but ftt noon the hour for the
funeral had not been definitely fixed. U was
fltnted , however , that the Interment would
certainly tnkc place nt Paterson nnd it was
believed that It would occur Saturday after
noon. When the tlmo Is definitely Axed nr-
rangementa will be made tor the proper rep
resentation of the senate nt the ceremony.
The flags over the public buildings wcro
half-mnstcd early In the day. Beyond this
there were no outward cvldencc.1 of mourn
ing nnd no drnplngs , ns a law of congress
has put an end to the former practice ot
draping the public buildings on the death of
nn executive olllccr. All the executive de
partments will be closed on the day of the
funcrnl.
Attorney Gcncrnl Orlggs left this after
noon for Pnterson. He goca as the personal
representative of the president and cabinet
nnd will nrrange with the family of Mr. Ho
bart for the funeral. The entile matter Is
left In his hnmls so far ns the ofllclnl features
of the ceremony nre concerned.

Ueued the following proclamation :

private character was gentle and noble. He
will long be mourned by his friends as a
man of singular purity and attractiveness ,
whoso sweetness of disposition won nil
hearts , while his elevated purposes , his un
bending integrity and whole-hearted devo

quired universal respect and esteem.
In Borrowing testimony of the loss which

LONDON , Nov. 21. ( Now York World
Cablegram Special Telegram. ) Intelli
gence of the death of Vice President Hobart
reached London this afternoon , exciting no
Interest or cccnmcnt , as his personality is
utterly unknown here. An interesting ques
tion arose , whether in view of the vice presi
dent's death Ambassador Choate should at
tend the state banquet at Windsor castle
In honor of the , kaiser. I understand that
the view taken at the American embassy
was that as the banquet is piirely a state
affair in which the ambassador represented
the American administration it was his duty
to attend it , despite the vice president's
death.

For Three Years. Nights Itching
and Burning Terrible.
Wife Suggests CUTICURA. Uses it.
Presto ! What a Change.
Feels Like Kicking Doctors for
Three Years' Suffering.
The Itching and burning I suffered in my feet
and limbs f or three years were terrible. Attilgbt
tbey were worse , and would keep mo nwako a
greater part of Iho night. I consulted doctor after
doctor , ag I was travelling on the road most of ,
lay lime , also uuu ui our cny uuciura. i uuu UL
the doctors knew what the trouble * was. I got
a lot of the different samples of the niedlcliica
I had been ubing. I found them of so many
different kinds , that I concluded I would Imvo
to go to a Cincinnati hospital before I would get
relief. I bad frequently been urged to try Cir-
TicimA REMEDIES , but I had no faith In them
jMy wife finally prevailed upon me to try them.
Presto [ \Vhatu change. I am now cured , and
it its a permanent cure. I feel Ilka kicking some
doctor or myeelf for suffering three years when
I could have used CUTICUUA remedies.

There are many causes for larno back that g

Doctors admit that electricity is the remedy g
of today. I guarantee my Electric Bolt to be |
the best body appliance on earth on a bond of o
$5,000. I know how to apply it , having devoted - g
voted twenty years of my life to the study of
the subject. My belt is made "to cure , " not o
simply "lo soil. " It gives a current which
you can feel as strong as you want it , but does g
not burn nor blister. My belt has my special *

Don't ' buy a cheap , shoddy electric belt. The
best is none too good for a man who wants a
cure. My Electric Belt'will cure you and is
