A Pretty New York Woman’s Recovery
the Talk ot Her Numerous Friends.
Mrs. J. K. Finn, r»2 Hast High street,
Buffalo, N. Y., writes :
Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio
Gentlemen:—“A few years ago 1
had to give up social life entirely, as
my health was completely broken
down. The doctor advised a com
plete rest for a year. As this was
out of the question for a time, I be
gan to look for some other means of
restoring my health.
"/had often heard of Peruna as
an excellent tonic, so / bought a bot
tle to see what it would do for me,
and it certainly took hold of my
system and rejuvenated me, and in
less than two months / was in per
fect health, and now when / feel
worn out or tired a dose or two of
Peruna is all that 1 need.''—Mrs.
f. E. Finn.
Catarrh Causes Female Diseases.
America is the land of nervous women.
The great majority of nervous women are
so because they are suffering from some
form of female disease. By far the great
est number of female troubles are caused
directly by catarrh. These women despair
of recovery. Female trouble is so common,
so prevalent, that they accept it as almost
inevitable. The greatest obstacle in the
wav of recovery is that they do not under
stand that it is catarrh which is the source
of their illness.
In female complaint, ninety-nine cases
out of one hundred are nothing but catarrh.
Peruna cures catarrh wherever located.

SWEPT BY FLOOD
HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE REN
DERED HOMELESS.
ENID, OKLAHOMA, IS VICTIM
Waters Rush Upon the People While
They are Sleeping—Lose All Their
Belongings and Are Glad to Escape
With Their Lives.
ENID, Okla—Hundreds of persons
were rendered homeless and property
damage estimated at $300,000 was
done in the Enid bottoms alone by
the cloudburst Chat struck west of
this city at midnight Saturday night.
The aggregate damage will doubtless
be raised much higher by losses sus
tained between Enid and the seat of
the storm. At 12 o’clock a bank of
water three feet high and 200 feet
wide swept down through the bot
toms, carrying houses and every
thing before it. It came down upon
Enid without warning while most of
its citizens were asleep. Within a
few minutes 100 houses were partly
or completely submerged. Rescuers
went to work immediately and all
night labored industriously saving per
sons from perilous positions and aid
ing those driven from their hom6s.
It was found that several hundred
were homeless.
WHAT THE TREATY CONTAINS.
Some of the Features of the Cuban
Agreement.
WASHINGTON.—These provisions,
among others, are succinctly stated in
the Cuban contract:
“Cuba is never to enter Into any
treaty or other compact with any for
eign power which will impair or tend
to impair its Independence. The gov
ernment is not to assume nor contract
any public debt to pay the interest
upon which and to make reasonable
sinking fund provision for the ulti
mate payment of which the revenue
of the island, after paying the gov
ernment expenses, shall be inade
quate.
“Cuba consents that the United
States may intervene for the preserva
tion of the Cuban independence. Cuba
ratifies all acts of the United States
in Cuba during the military, occupa
tion. Cuba will make provision for
the sanitation of the cities of the
island to the end that a recurrence oi
epidemic and infectious diseases may
be pievented.”
MAY EFFECT CANAL TREATY.
Doubt About What Effect Ministerial
Crisis Will Have.
WASHINGTON—Whether the min
isterial crisis in Colombia, as reported
by United States Minister Beaubre,
will have any important bearing on
the ratification of the Isthmian canal
treaty is not known here. Fernandez,
the minister of government, (more
specifically known locally as the min
ister of the interior), who resigned,
was virtually the premier of the gov
ernment. The office filled by him cor
responds in many respects to that of
secretary of state in the United States.
Statements have been made to the ef
fect that he was opposed to the of
ficial declaration of peace in Colom
bia, holding that it was still under
martial law. If Colombia were under
martial law its president could exer
cise the dictatorial powers vested in
him by the constitution and ]f he
chose ratify the canal treaty by his
own act without submitting it to the
consideration of congress, whose posi
tion on the subject is still doubtful.
Same Terms as United States.
WASHINGTON.—Great Britain has
decided to accord China the same
I terms in the settlement in the Boxer
indemnity as those accepted by the
United States. The state department
has been informed that the English
charge at Peking has signified the
willingness of his government to ac
cept payment on a silver basis for a
term of years, serving of under bond
the right to receive payment of any
• deficiency that might exist should it
! hereafter bo decided that the pay
■ ments should have been made on a
> gold basis. This very much strength
ens ihe attitude of the United States.
Itch Grows on Kansas Stock.
TOPEKA, Kan.—The State Live
Stock Sanitary commission is in ses
j sion here to consider the best method
of combating the Texas itch. As a
result Governor Bailey will impose a
l_ still more rigid quarantine and an or
y der will likely be made to dip all cat
tle coming into the state
Modocs to Go Home.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—The com
missioner of Indian affairs has beet*
3' informed by the Indian agent at the
e Quapaw agency in Indian territory
n that most of the forty-seven Modoc
i- Indians who constitute the remnant
i- of the tribe which in 1876 perpetrated
the massacre at the lava beds, are
■e preparing to leave for their old home
[1~ on the Klamath reservation in Oregon.
* The Indians give as a reason their
preference for the Pacific coast.

ed as the people stood around waiting
for the water to subside. Many had
lost everything they possessed. The
citizens are busily engaged relieving
the distress but the means at hand
are inadequate. The rainfall the past
ten days has been the heaviest in the
history of Okahoma, and indications
are that more will follow. Reports
of losses in the country west of Enid
are meagre, but it is believed that
heavy damage was done.
GUTHRIE, Akla. — Early Sunday
this vicinity was visited by another
deluge, making the twenty-fourth con
secutive day of rain. The Cimarron
and Cottonwood rivers are now at the
danger point. A tornado struck Foss,
a town on the Choctaw, Oklahoma &
Gulf railroad at 5 o'clock Sunday
morning, completely destroyed thir
teen residences and wrecking many
outhouses. Three persons were killed
and a number injured, one R. P. Sail
seriously. The dead are F. M. Slagel
wife and daughter.

group of Italian veterans, to whom hi
said he wished to pay his tribute o
respect to the two late kings, whi
were soldiers, like himself.
Disturbances in Russia.
BERLIN—The Lokal Anzeiger’s cot
respondent at St. Petersburg tele
graphs that serious disturbances an
rioting have broken out in the proe
ince of Saratoff and that the peai
ants are buring and sacking the res
deuces of the land holders in man
places.
Lieutenant Walker Killed.
MANILA—Lieutenant Walker of th
constabulary, who was reported mis
ing after the recent lighting in tf
island of Cebu, was, it became know
later, killed by a superior band of f
natics which surrounded the lieute
ant’s party. Two privates of the co
stabulary were also killed and thri
were captured. Two of these priso
ers were murdered. One of them e
caped.
SIGN THE TREATY'
CUBA AND UNCLE SAM CON
CLUDC COMPACT.
THEIR SIGNATURES ARE PLACED
All Provisions of Platt Amendment
Are Incorporated—Objections Made
Are All Overcome—An Urgent Mes
sage from President Palma.
HAVANA—The permanent treaty
between the United States and Cuba,
in which is incorporated all the provi
sions of the Platt amendment, was
signed Friday afternoon.
The signing of the treaty took place
at 4:30 at the office of the secretary
of state. The signers were Secretary
of State Zaldo and United States Min
ister Squiers, who constituted special
plenipotentiaries for that purpose. Se
nor Zaldo and Mr. Squiers simply met,
accompanied by their secretaries, and
the signing was accomplished and cop
ies of the treaty exchanged within a
few minutes.
The permanent treaty contains no
provision for its abrogation and no
extraneous conditions of any kind. It
simply incorporates the entire Platt
amendment into the form of a treaty.
The length of time consumed by the
negotiations was principally due to
the fact that the Cuban government
desired to include in the treaty vari
ous extraneous conditions, especially
one to the effect that there should be
no intervention into Cuban affairs by
the United States, except through the
intervention of the United States. All
these conditions were rejected.
I ne Absunairu nt*»s uuncayuuucui
saw a number of senators with re
spect to the ratification of the naval
stations treaties during this session
of congress, but they were not in
clined to be communicative. It re
mains evident that there is a tendency
to allow the treaties to go over this
session.
An urgent message from President
Palma, which will accompany the
sending of the treaty to the senate,
will have a strong effect.
Senor Sanguilly, the most active op
ponent of the treaties with the Uni
ted States, said he would oppose the
permanent treaty, because under it
the United States, being the stronger
power, could itself decide when inter
vention was desirable, regardless of
the wishes of Cuba. Other senators
say that the paragraph relating to
the Isle of Pines should have been
eliminated.
It is now expected that an agree
ment covering the details of the Uni
ted States naval stations will be reach
ed by President Palma and Unitea
States Minister Squiers within threo
weeks.
MEET DEATH IN THE FLOOD.
Three Persons Are Drowned at
Sterling.
TECUMSEH, Neb.—Four inches of
rain in two hours Friday night has
thrown the Nemaha river out of its
banks and the ruins of spring-planted
crops are now rushing down the cur
rent.
At Sterling, a few miles above here,
a family of three, consisting of a
mother, brother and child, were
drowned while attempting to ford a
torrent trom the hillsides. Two of the
bodies have been recovered. The bot
tom lands are all under water, while
the hill lands are washed bare and
a large per cent of the corn will have
to be replanted. The Burlington re
ports several small washouts, but not
so serious as to impede traffic. The
river is now falling, but another se
vere rain threatens to do more dam
age.
Death to Be the Penalty.
SAN JUAN, P. R.—In the Humaeao
district court of first degree Pedro
Diaz was convicted of murder during
a political riot at Humaeao last Au
gust m killing a boy named Octavio
Reyes. Diaz will be sentenced Satur
day to be hanged sixty days later. This
is the first conviction under the new
code and the hanging will be the first
to occur in Porto Rico. It is certain
the governor will not interfere.

killed in Clay county but at Bala, a
little town in Riley county, two little
girls named Daub were killed and a
number of persons injured. Five
houses were blown away at Bala and
many cattle killed.

Dogs Smell Death.
There's an old superstition that a J
howling dog in front of the house of
an ill person portends death. One
prominent physician believes absolute
ly in it. The physician has a wonder
fully acute sense of smell. Frequent
ly, he says, he can foretell the coming
of deatn within twenty-four hours of
the patient’s demise. Within two days
of death, he says, a peculiar earthy
odor becomes noticable about a per
son about to die. He tells of one case
where he became aware of the peculiar
odor while talking to an apparently
healthy man. That night the man
dropped dead of heart disease. The
physician is far from attributing ,_e
peculiar manifestation to other than
physiological reasons. His own sense
of smell is abnormally acute.

How Mark Twain Proposed.
Mrs. Samuel Clemens was Miss
Olivia Langdon. For some years be
fore she met Mr. Clemens, she had
been confined to her bed with what
was believed to be an incurable dis
ease; but she was at length miracu
lously restored to health. The cure
was the sensation of Elmira, N. Y.,
and young clemens, then a newspaper
reporter, was sent there to interview
Miss Langdon on her recovery. He
obtained the interview for his news
paper, and brought back impressions
of more value to himsen. Miss Lang
don’s parents were at first strongly op
posed to the young newspaper man.
and, for his part, his timidity, so it is
solemnly said, stood in the way of'
the progress of his suit. But finally
he screwed up courage to speak to
Mr. Langdon, and one morning timidly
entered his future father-in-law’s pri
vate office, where that man was seat
ed at work. “Mr. Langdon—have you
—noticed anything — between—your
daughter—and—-me?” “No,” shouted
the objecting parent, wheeling sharply
around so as to get a full view of his
visitor. “Well,” said the young man,
as he turned to the door, ready for
instant flight, "if you—keep—a—sharp
—lookout—you—WILL! ”

of a young lawyer who came before
the supreme court to argue a case in
which he was also defendant. Ad
i-.essing the court, he referred to the
old French adage declaring that he
who argues his own case has a fool
for a client. After the case had been
heard he left for his home in St. Louis,
asking a friend to notify him by wire
when the decision was handed down.
This was the pithy telegram he re

“Money” in Abyssinia.
The Emperor Menelek has had a
curious experience in his efforts to
replace barter by a metallic currency
in Abyssinia. The Maria Theresa tha
ler has for generations been current,
but for want of a smaller coinage salt
blocks became the standard of ex
change and resisted all efforts, even
of the emperor, to replace them by
a new currency coined in Paris some
years ago. The salt blocks have given
way, but not to the new coinage, which
the people will not touch. The new
standard of values is—the rifle cart
