LONDON, Dee. 26.-Chrlatmas of 190e
will . be memorable for the ' heaviest snow
storms the United Kingdom has experi
enced In many years. In the northern
counties of England and In Scotland the
snow was accompanied by great gales.
There was an average fall of from four to
six inches, which under heavy gales drifted
badly and worked serious hindrance to
locomotion of all kinds and Inconvenience
to holiday makers. It snowed again to
night, but not so hard, excepting. In the
Liverpool district, where a fierce bllxtard
Is raging, and the indications are that
the severe weather will continue.
There were many small wrecks along
the coast, but. no serious loss of life Is
reported. The crews of nearly all the
wrecked vessels Were rescued by life boats.
Almost all the shipwrecked men hnd terri
ble experiences and were completely ex
hausted before being brought to land. The
steamer Hazcldene struck a rock and sank
off Cloughey. Life boat men succeeded In
rescuing the crew after an exciting ex
perience. Another life boat made a similar
rescue of the crew of the schooner Ring
lender, wrteked off Rungeness.
The minor Inconveniences of the day In
clude the abandoning of hundreds of box
ing,' foot ball and golf matches. The dis
comfort and the difficulty of getting about,
however, did not greatly dampen the ardor
Of London's pleasure seekers.
The popularity of the pantomime seems
to be on the Increase. Not less than a
dozen theaters In London and Its suburbs,
headed by a splendid production of "Slnbad
the Pallor" at Drury Lane, gave panto
mime, and all report full houses.

WASHINGTON. Deo. M.-Representn
tlve John Wesley Oalnes of Tennessee, who
Is In favor of enacting a new statute pro- I
vldlng that members of congress shall for-
felt 113.70 for every day they are absent,
announces that I as a result ot a search
through the old documents at the capltol
has has found that a statute, passed In
1856, which prohibits absent members from
collecting their salaries unless they are
kept from their official duties by Illness,
has never been repealed.
An attempt was made to enforce this
law, he says, in the Fifty-second congress,
which resulted In a strenuous effort to re
peal the statute In 1894, when the demo
crats had control of the house. Repre-
sentattve Gaines will rail attention of con
gress to ths statute, he says, and insist
that it be enforced.
8arent Reports oa Hawaii.
A report on Japanese condition in the Ha
waiian Islands will be made to the president
by Frank P. Sargent, commissioner of Im
migration and naturalisation as a result of
his recent Visit to the islands.
Commissioner Sargent today expressed
the opinion that there are fewer Japan
ese in the Hawaiian islands now than there
were two years ago, a greater number
having come to America in that period
than arrived In Hawaii. Mlkl Salto, the
Japanese consul general at Honolulu, In
timated to Mr. Sargent that the Japanese
government discouraged its people from
coming to the United States because of its
knowledge of the conditions existing in
this country, especially on the Pacific
coast, and It was apprehended that tho
coming here of great numbers of Japanese
might induce a prejudice against them that
would be embarrassing. The commissioner
of Immigration found that the owners of
sugar, pine apple and other plantations
in the islands are In serious need of laber
and many Japanese are coming to the
Isl nds to work on them. He says that
It Is the effort of the Hawaiian planters
to diversify their labor, so far as possl
ble, not confining It to any one race, but
getting people ' from all quarters of the
world.
A second ship load of Portuguese will ar
rive at Honolulu In a short time and it Is
probable that these immigrants will make
the island their permanent home. Many
more plantations would be operated on the
Islands if it were possible to obtain the
necessary laborers, but up to the present
time labor has been scarce. It Is expected
that the arrival In the Islands of the Euro
pean laborers will be a solution of the
Hawaiian labor problem.

timated that each bidder has bids on an
average of thirty tracts, some of the bid
ders, it is understood, having bid on every
one of the tracts, 2,531 in number, mis
will necessitate the making and Indexing
of nearly 250.000 cards and It is expected that

three months before the highest bidder on

Other people notice;, your bad breath
where you would not notice it at all. It 1
nauseating to other people to stand before
them and while you are talking, give them
a whiff or two of your bad breath. It Usually
comes from food fsrmeating on your stom
ach. Sometimes you have It In tha morn
ingthat awful sour, bilious, bad breath.
You can stop that at once by swallowing
one or two Stuart Charcoal Lozengea, the
most powerful gaa and odor absorbers ever
prepared.
Sometimes your meals will reveal them
selvos in your breath to those who talk with
you. "You've had onions," or "You'vs been
eating cabbage," and' all of a sudden you
belch In he foe of your friend. Charcoal
ts a wondeful absorber of odera, as every
one Vnows. That ia why Stuart's Charcoal
Los'enges aro so quick to stop all gaaes and
odors or odorous foods, or gas from indi

breath. Charcoal la a purifier a a well as
an absorber.

you take the better. Stuart's Charcoal

Address fcr Prof. Jeoks.
Prof. J. W. Jenks of Cornell university.
president Of the American Economlo asso
ciation, delivered the annual address, his
subject being "Th Modern Standard of
Business Honor."
Prof. Jenks said:
Tha fronuencv of srest fortunes, gathered
perhaps legally, but in ways felt to be
unjust, tnruugn un power 01 iiiuiiuijuir
hair a anriaul utroniilv to obscure the moral
vision of many well-meaning men, who
have been thereby led to confound morality
rith snrla.1 righteousness, and their acts
have formed the excuse for many others to
break laws which seem to mem unjusi.
The profit from an unjust tnougn legai
stock watering; may well prove more de
moralising In business circles than the il
legal freight rebate which saves from ruin
a grain shipper caught at a disadvantage.
In the way of remedy Prof. Jenks sub
mitted that the atate should make the con
ditions such that human nature would
not be tempted beyond Its strength and
make and enforce laws which shall, for
bid unscrupulous practices like the employ
went of child labor or the adulteration of
goods. ...
"It may seem a tame and Impotent con
clusion." concluded Prof. Jenks, "that there
Is no legislative panacea for our business
Ills, and that upon us as individuals rests

SOME FUN OVER CA?LEGRAM
MI Asa Captured Dlatreases Frleads
of Rev. Lather M. K,ahns Till
Brother Explains.
' "I am captured."
' Thla waa the context of a cablegram re
ceived Christmas day by Paul M. Kuhna,
assistant cashier of the First National
bank or of the City Savings bank after
January 1. It came from his brother Rev.
Luther M. Kuhns, secretary of the Luther
league, who la at Choofu, China.
Borne of the friends of the Messrs. Kuhns
were dismayed at the message, which
seemed to convey such ill news.
"'Captured?" pondered one sympathetic
friend. 'Now isn't that awful," and te
flectlng upon the recent massacres at Lien
Chow, he could picture to his mind's eye
all sorts ot atrocities inflicted upon Mr.
Kuhns.
But Paul M. Kuhns refused to be the
least perturbed; la fact lie waa so happy
over the receipt of the cable that his
friends were quite as much annoyed at
him as they weredlstressed at the mes
sage. "Pshaw, don't you know what that
means?" he presently said, "that'a the code
for 'Christmas Greetings'."
