A Hug of Many 1'leces.
A "Washington man has on his din
ing room floor a remarkable rug. It
is composed of 225 pieces so artistically
sown together that no seam is visible.
It seems that there is a certain wild
sheep in Brazil whose general color is
solid brown , with the exception of a
small spot , snow white , about four
inches square , on its breast. The rug
in question is made of these white
spots , and 225 sheep were killed to pro
vide them.

MANY AMERICANS AMONG THEM.
Fighting Men From Everywhere FlockIng -
Ing to Boer Standard.
NEW YORK , April 2. A World
correspondent writing from Pretoria.
March 7 , says : The Boer army has
thus far been strengthened by about
3,000 men who have come into the
country through Delagoa bay since the
war began. Three thousand is a low
estimate , but the exact number cannot
be ascertained , even from the war
office here , which is willing to tell al
most anything concerning the con
duct of the war. This large body of
men has been recruited chiefly in Eur
ope , where sympathy for the Boers
is second only to the hate of England ,
but many men have come from Amer
ica , and even Australia. Ever since
the war began this steady stream of
fighting men has been pouring into
the Transvaal over the Portuguese
border , although the English officials
there have done everything in their
power to stop it.
Every train arriving from Lourenzo
Marquez brings from ten to fifty re
cruits and a short time ago such a
large number of men were clamoring
for transportation from the Portuguese
town that an extra train was run for
their accommodation.
POLYGAMIST OUT Of OfflCE.
T. C. Graham Super-ceiled as Postmaster
at Prove , Utuli.
WASHINGTON , D. C. , April 2 It
was announced at the postoffice de
partment that J. C. Graham had been
removed as postmaster at Provo ,
Utah , on March 28 , and a temporary
successor in the person of Read Smoot
appointed in his stead. Mr. Smoot
was selected by the bondsmen of Gra
ham and will retain office until some
one is selected to take permanent
charge. Graham was removed as a
result of an investigation by i.ie house
postoffice committee on charges that
he was a polygamist. The committee
found that he was guilty as charged ,
but exonerated the president and all
officials of the postoffice department
of any knowledge that he was guilty
of polygamy at the time of his ap
pointment.
Negroes Denounce Koers.
PHILADELPHIA , April 2 At a

nouncing the Boers as slaveholders
was presented by Rev. F. H. Butler
find was unanimously adopted. The
conference is composed of colored
preachers and laymen of Delaware ,
Maryland and a portion of Pennsyl
vania. The slavery complained of is

PERUNA PROTECTS
The Roberts Family , of Falls City , Neb. , Are Healthy and Happy A Rare Sight in These Days. They
Say , "We Think Peruna Is The Greatest Medicine On Earth. "
No man Js better known in the State
of Nebraska than Mr. Carl T. Roberts ,
contractor and mason. A typical Am
erican active , shrewd and full of busi
ness sagacity. He is not only a pro
vider for his family , but a protector.
In a recent letter to Dr. Hartman he
writes among other things , as follows :
"Our boy , James , had the membra
nous croup and repeated attacks of
lung fever. Our boy , Charlie , was also
subject tov attacks of pneumonia and
pleurisy. Our third boy , John , was
subject to fever and ague ( malarial )
and liver trouble. Your remedy , Pe
runa , cured my boys entirely , and
now I have three of the healthiest
boys in the State of Nebraska , which
I attribute to your medicine. My wife
had a stomach trouble which Peruna
also cured. Altogether for my whole
family we have used nineteen bottles
of Peruna. and have thus saved $500
in doctors' bills. I am a contractor
and mason by trade , and am known all
over Nebraska. I have had stomach
trouble , which has been greatly re
lieved by your remedy , Peruna , for
which I am still taking it We think

without a doubt the best medicine that
ever was used in a family. It has
cured my nervousness , with which I
had been afflicted for a great number
of years. "
It Is a fact of ever-increasing aston
ishment that so many otherwise sen
sible and provident people will , for
the neglect of so simple a precaution
as to have a bottle of Peruna at hand ,
bring upon themselves the needless
suffering and foolish expense that a
practitioner of medicine is forced to
witness every day.
As soon aa the value of Peruna is
fully appreciated by every household ,
both as a preventive and cure of thesa
affections , tens of thousands of lives
will be saved , and hundreds of thou
sands of chronic , lingering coses of
disease prevented. Peruna is the
household safeguard.
