( Special Correspondence ) Warlike din- patches in the morning newspapers stirred up ageucral discussion among a half score of goutlcaicn in a corner of tkoemoklng room of the Indiana Mineral Springs Hotel today. Boveral veterans of tbo civil war who have been regaining health by moans of thfi Jlugno Mud BathH and Lithia Whler here took a lively interest in tue discussion. Many Jutr5tlng stories of the late con- JHct Were told. "In the campaign before Richmond in the last months of the war , " paid Capt. H. 8. Cole , of Fergus Falls , Minn. , "I was guilty of o distortion of an order that , had the battle which it caused been a defeat for UKwould have bad sad results for mo ; fortunately tlio falsehood I told rescued us from u perilous position and wo won a victory. " Capt. Colo' regiment was the famous First Maine Cavalry which by special order of the War Department has seven more battles on its colors than any other carried by any regiment in the Union array. The First Maine also 1ms the record of having turned more of its troopers into preachers at tbo close of hostilities than any other regiment of tbo northern army , while several of the men who have been governors of the Fine Tree state einc * 1865 wore at the front with tbe First Maine. But it - waswhile ho was on the staff of Gen. Chns. F. Smith , who commanded a brigada of the Second Cavalry corps , tbe hood of which -was Geu. D. McGregg , one of tha best cavalry captains in the north or south , that tbo incident happened. "Our brigade was in a desperate condi tion , " mid Ctipt. Cole , "when Qen. Smith sent me to ask Gen. McGrogff forre-inforce- ments. I found tbo Pennsylvania fighters and delivered my message. He thought- .fully stroked bis beard. ' 'Give my compliments to Gon. Smith , ' he said , 'and tell him be can't have a re-inforcenaent. ' It was the first time I over heard Gen. McGregjr swear , and I was convinced tliat it was due to tbe serious condition of his command. Iwas also con vinced that our brigade should fight its way out , eo wlion I galloped up to Gen. Smith I determined to somewhat change his superior's orders. ' "What success V ho asked. 'Gen. McGropg can't Bond any re-inforcements , and desires you to attack , ' I said. Howas surprised , but the word was given. In spired by our peril wo routed the enemy anil gained a safe place. "Sonio time afterward I told Gen. Smith what 1 had done. " 'What happened ? " asked one of tbo other veterans. "Drinks on the general , " said the man from Minnesota , who added that with a few more Magno Mud Baths he would be in n fit condition to take a band in the im < pending war with Spain.

According to official statistics given out April 1. there were 104 suicides during the last three months in New York. Thirty sot a gun and forty- four went to the drug store , where poison is plentiful. The majority were persons between the ases of 23 and 45 years. Of those who committed self- destruction , seventy-nine were males and twenty-five females. Five hundred workmen , sculptors , electricians , painters and so forth are rushing the completion of a royal Spanish palace in New York's swell upper West side. It is the marvel of the neighborhood , and every pleasant cay ! hundreds of men , women and chil dren watch the workmen as they pound and paint and screw and saw in the efforts to please the master and com plete the palace as soon as possible. On the outside walls are already hung coats of arms of the titled owner. The entrance , to which white marble stairs lead , is guarded by lions , rampant and lighted by iron lamps hung from chains held by the great iron griffins. The walte are a mass of electric wires to feed thousands of lights. As the electricians work the sculptors cut the many designs that will adorn the fire \ places and borders ef the eellings.

Cone SUbles Stalls and Floor * . There IB a great need of reform on tbe average American's farm in the construction of the horse stables , the care bestowed upon them and tbe man agement of the animals which they house , says Indiana Farmer. In many localities , east and west , little or no at tention is given to sanitary conditions , and for the most part they are unfit to be used for any purpose whatever , much less as the dwelling place of an animal so noble , intelligent and cleanly by nature , and so sensitive to all im purities of air , food or water , as the horse. No heed is given to drainage , light or ventilation , and more often than otherwise the floors are uneven , f.ull of boles , and are composed of maj ( terlal hard to keep clean even" when there is a disposition and an effort made in that direction ; they emit an unwholesome odor that is bad for the health of horses , and many stable ills are traceable thereto. Horse stables should never be placed underground , wholly or in part , for there Is general ly in such a location no sufficient means for light , ventilation and drainage ; these defects very often cause great damage to the constitution and general welfare of animals that are obliged to constantly breathe the foul air insepar able to such surroundings. Ventilation and light in the stable are as necessary to perfect health of the horse as proper food and exercise and in building stables this consideration should re ceive attention foremost among other important things. Eight or nine feet from the floor to ceiling is little enough ; 10 or 12 is better. The doors should be so placed that when open the air shall not be upon the horses , and a jreat advantage is found in hav ing them in two sections horizontally in order to have the upper half to stand open in summer to admit fresh air. The windows , which should bo large as in a modern dwelling house and as numerous in proportion to the size of the room , should be so placed as to al low a free passage of air in warm weather , and if in front of the horses they must be shaded , as the full glare of light fronT'that direction is an in jury to the eyes. They should also bo situated high enough so as to allow the air to circulate over the horses' backs. The stalls in most farm stables are too narrow , rarely ever being over five feet wide and very often less. Six feet wide is much better , more comfortable and safer for the horse. Ample room in the rear is also a convenience and safe guard against dangers and mishaps that is too often entirely dlregarded while planning for the accommodation and comfort of the horses in the stable. Fifteen to 17 feet from the head of the stall to the back wall is none too long for an averaged size farm horse. We have all seen stalls that were so short , and some of us have had tUem in use , that when the horses were in their places scarce space enough behind them was allowed to walk and very often , to add to the discomfort and cramped condition of affairs , the harness hung upon pegs fixed in the rear wall , which may be a handy place for the purpose , but besides being in the way and often under the horses feet , the odor of a badly kept stable is a serious injury to the harness. Scientific Poultry Raising : . Little has as yet been done for the poultry industry by our experiment stations or otherwise. Even private investigations have Laen of an imper fect character , and many of the re sults obtained have been very unsat isfactory if not delusive. We have formed a great many opinions on our observations , but it will doubtless be found that both opinions and observa tions have been wrong in many cases. Such has been the result in other lines of farm industry. We thought that we knew that in the milk of the dairy cow the food made the richness or the poorness according to its quality , but we found that all of our observations in that matter were delusions. So it will doubtless be with the poultry facts ( ? ) that we have secured. What what we need is extensive investiga tions into the principles of poultry cul ture. Both public and private atten tion should be given to the matter. It may be that In time we will be able to exterminate the roup and kindred dis eases over wide areas of country. We be able to . may even uc atj2f exterminate the louse of the chicken variety as thoroughly - ' oughly as we have in many localities the louse that fastens on the human head. The Mares. Probably few farmers can well change their stock of mares at once , but those that have any at all fit for breeding should breed them to sires of families in which the quality of transmitting the strains that make them valuable is well established. The mares that are raised from such breed ing will be a big improvement on their dams , and should themselves be bred to a sire of the same class as that to which the dam was bred. It is better to have only three or four good mares just enough to do the work of the farm , and breed them in this way.than to have a score producing colts by a half-bred stallion who transmits noth ir ing with certainty other than shabby appearance and a general unfltness foi any good purpose. Ex. French Spinet. The French have a way of fattening fowls that seems to be peculiar to that country. A huge spinet is built that revolves on one center. This spinet contains cages , in which are fowls , one in each cage. The fowl is kept in the dark and in si lence , being fed several times a day with soft food that is pumped down rte throat. The fowl hae nothing to debut but eat and digest its food. In a few ttcc cc weeks it has become a most tooth sc some morsel for the epicure.

From the Republican , Scr.inton , Pa. The primary cause of dyspepsia is lack of vitality ; thc absence of nerve force ; the loss of the lif o-sustnining elements of the blood. . No organ can properly perform ita func tions when the source of nutriment fails. When tbo stomach is robbed of tbe nour ishment demanded by nature , assimilation ceases , unnatural ( races are generated ; the entire system responds to the discord. A practical illustration of the symptoms nud torture of dyspepsia is furnished by the case of Joseph T. Vandyke , 440 Hick ory St. , Scranton , Pa. In telling his story. Mr. Vandyke sayn : "Five years ago I was afflicted with a trouble of the stomach , which was very aggra vating. I bad no appe tite , conld not enjoy my- Eolf at any time , and es pecially was the trouble . sovera when I a\voko in the morning. I did not know what the ailment was , but it became stead ily worse and 1 was in constant jTjieery. "I called in my family physician , and no diag nosed tbo case as catarrh of the stomach. He pre- fccrlbedfor mo and I had the proscription filled. I took nearly all of tbe medicine , but still tbo trouble became worse , and I felt that my condition was hopeless. I tried sevor- al'remedies recommended by my friends but without benefit After I bad been suf fering several months. Thomas Campbell , also a resident of this city , urged me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. "Ho finally persuaded mo to buy a box and I began to use the pills according to directions. Before I baa taken the second box I began to feel relieved , and after tak ing a few more boxes. I considered myself restored to health. The pills gave mo new life , strength , ambition and happiness. " Dr. Williams' Pink Pills care dyspepsia by restoring to the blood tha requisite con stituents or lifo , by renewing tbo nerve force and enabling the stomach to prompt ly and properly assimilate tbo food. Tbeso pills are a specific for all diseases having their origination in impoverished blood or disordered norves. They contain every element requisite to general nutrition , to restore strength to the weak , good health to the ailing. Time future is not , and may never be.

The experiments recently made pub lic in the production of intense cold by liquefying air are of direct value to housekeepers. When effected and applied commercially it will mean , in addition to the large benefits , a num ber of small ones within the kitchen domain.

Subscriptions to the permanent or chestra fund in New York amount to ยง 52,500. They are made on condition that not less than $125,000 be sub scribed to meet the possible deficiency for five years. Of this total $25,000 may be called for the first year , $25,000 the next year , and so on , but if less than the subscription is needed the first year the remainder may be called for in any subsequent one of the five years. Significant of the drift of public opin ion is the statement that Everett P. Wheeler , of New York city , an advo cate of arbitration on principle and a member of the peace society , has writ ten a letter to Senator Proctor declar ing the convincing power of the latter's calm story of the conditions prevail ing in Cuba. Mr. Wheeler now says that the recognition of independence should speedily come , and that the United States cannot allow the suffer ing and starvation to continue. "If war should come , " says Mr. Wheeler , "the suffering it entails would only be a tithe of the misery that is now be- ins endured. It will be brief , and it had better come than the present con ditions continue. " Colonel Wheelock G. Veazy , of Rut land , who has just died , was one of the notable men of Vermont. For his gallant conduct at Gettysburg congress conferred upon him a medal of honor. He was made a judge of the state su preme court in 1879 , and served on the bench until 1889 , when President Harrison risen appointed him to the inter-state commission. In 1890 he was elected Commander-in-chief of the Grand Army , an organization in which he had always maintained an active in terest Yale's invested funds foot up , all told , $3,921,699 , against $2,273.092 in 1887. The amount invested in real es tate is $369,343 ; in bond and mortgage $1,712,284 ; in railroad bonds , $1,243- 871 ; in other bonds , $280,000 , and in stocks , $223,373. The real estate in vestment returned last year 3.29 per cent. , the bonds and mortgages , 5.51 ; the rail road bonds , 5.07 ; the other bonds , 2.25 , and the stocks , 5.SO per cent ; the return on all the invest ments being 4.84 per cent.

That Spain should appeal to Prance to the present crisis is perhaps natur al , but it would be interesting to learn on what grounds she appeals to that country as "her traditional friend. " Franco has always been tha bitter enemy of Spain. It was Francis II. , of France who did the most to defeat the schemes of the Emperor Charles V. It vas Napoleon who conquered Spain by treachery ; and it was an alliance between the English and Spanish that did the most to overthrow him.

At a recent concert in New York , during the rendition of the "Oberon" overture , in which the British air , "God Save the Queen , " is introduced , as it is in the opera proper , the audi ence broke into vociferous ap plause , recognizing the music solely as that of "America. " Had an Eng lishman been present he would have been justified in marveling at the num ber of Anglo-maniacs in the theater. It would be interesting to know just how many average Americans are aware that the melody of the Ameri can hymn is borrowed from the na tional air of England. "The Star Spangled Banner , " although its music is of foreign antecedents , is probably the most distinctively American of all our songs of this class. "March ing Through Georgia" and "Dixie" are unfortunate in being too sectional in character to serve as national au- thems , though they are both martial and pulse stirring in the highest de gree.

Doctors could do nothing forme , and they could not cure me at the hospital. I will tell you about it. I had been in my usual health , but had worked quite hard. When my monthly period came on I flowed very badly. The doctor gave me medicine , but itdid mono good. Hesaidthe flow must be stopped if possible , and he must find the cause of my trouble. Upon examination he found there was a fibroid tumor in my womb , and gave me treatment without any benefit whatever. About that time a lady called on me and recommended Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound ; said she owed her life to it. I said I would try it , and did. Soon after the flow became more natural and regular , f I still continued taking the Compound for some time. Then the doctor made an ex amination again , and found everything all right. The tumor had passed away , and that dull ache was gone. " "IRONING WADS 1B/1SY.
