Fp-to-Dste Baby Buggies. The New York infant born to a fortune takes his airing nowadays in the newest thing in English baby car riages. It is called the “Princess Vic toria,” and in price it ranges from $60 to $75. It is sold at a swagger Eng lish place uptown, and is warranted to be the king of thing used in the British royal family. It is built in car riage style, with “C” springs, and is either white, gray or black. The ve hicle is the perfection of comfort for the precious baby, and is as aristo cratic looking as it is comfortable. I Worthless Stuff! What a lot of trash is sold as cough cures. The hollow drum makes the * loudest noise—the biggest advertise ment often covers worthlessness. Sixty years of cures and such testi mony as the follow ing have taught us what Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral will do. S “I had a most stubborn cough C for many years. It deprived me J of sleep and made me lose flesh 1 rapidly. I was treated by many I eminent physicians, but could get 1 no permanent relief. I then tried Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, and I be gan to get better at once. I now sleep well, my old flesh is back, and I enjoy myself in every way at the age of seventy-four.”—R. N.

REORGANIZING FLOUR TRUST. Assessment on Stock to Provide Working Capital. NEW YORK, Feb. 5.—It is reported that a plan for the reorganization of the United States Flour Milling com pany has been perfected and will soun be publicly announced. There will be assessments on both common and pre ferred stock to provide the working capital, which was depleted through the purchase of additional mills. It is also i roposed to retire the outstand ing 87,500,000 first mortgage 6 per cent gold bonds and replace them with an other issue. Interests identified with the Great Northern railroad, it is said, will subscribe to the new bonds. The alternate proposition of selling the recently acquired mills, the report of which led to the statement that the company was disintegrating, has been abandoned. President George Urban, jr., of Buffalo, is expected to retire and Vice President Jacob Ames will be identified with the corporation in an other capacity. FORCING ISSUE IN KENTUCKY, Republican Legislators Will Get Contest Into Senate. FRANKFORT. Ky.. Feb. 5—Chair man John Barrett of the republican joint caucus has issued a call for a session of the caucus at the court house in London. Monday at 4 p. m. This is taken to indicate that there will be an attempt to organize the legislature and to elect a new set of officers. To make a quorum it will be necessary for the troops to arrest and bring to Lon don enough of the democrats for that purpose. A leader of the party said “We will elect all the legislative offi cers, elect Governor Bradley to the United States senate, thereby getting a contest in the senate, which will bring a decision from competent authority.” Civil Rule In the Philippines. NEW YORK, Feb. 5.--According to the Washington correspondent of the Tribune President McKinley has de cided not to wait for congress to act on the mattr of replacing the military government by a civil administration in the Philippines, recognizing that much time will be consumed in delib erating over the details before any comprehensive plan can be adopted and that more than a month would be required after that time for the officials to reach their stations. It has been, decided therefore to send out three or at most five commissioners to es tablish provisionally the form of terri torial government recommended in the report, of the Philippine commission sent to congress today. .

The new regulation provides against the wear ing of these hats in any other than their original shape, which is on the alpine order, a shape that experience has proved to be the most becoming to the average soldier’s head.
