A Girl s Experience. My daughter’s nerves were terribly out of order. She was thin and weak; the least noise startled her, and she was wakeful at night. Before she had taken ono package of Celery King the change in her was so great that she could hardly be taken for the same girl. She is rapidly growing well and strong, her complexion .'perfect, and she sleepswell every night.—Mrs. Lucy McNutt. Brush Pa. Celery King cures Constipation, and .Tw- .

NEELY'S INFLUENCE Dominated All Departments of the Cuba i,'Posts. Havana, June I.—Acting- Director of Posts Bristow says that Inspectors Seibold and Neal, who reported April 23, that Neeljßi accounts were correct, did so because they took the report of Reeves as a basis of judgment, a system regularly observed. These inspectors point out that the auditor’s report was always tatieii as a voucher at full value. Mr. Bristow declares, however, that no man couldJfiave inspected Neely’s ortlee without being thoroughly convinced flint the gravest irregularities were being commit ted. In his opinion Seibold and Neal were completely under the influence of Neely, wiio seems *r. have dominated, the whole department of posts. TlkjpA have not yet been discharged as they may be able to render valuable asslstauee. ® ■ • , t Rathbone Must Sftiy. Havana. June 4.—Rumors having reached the authorities that Mr. Rathitone intended leaving the island of Cuba, he has been notified that his presence is absolutely required in Havana until the InvestigaHbu into the postal affairs lias been eomph b 1. l*e postal officials now in charge state there are most reasons why Mr. Rathbone should remain in Cuba, even ** they w » impelled to resort to force to keep him there. It is understood that additional important facts connect ma the eißHak with postal frauds have been brottglFto the ears tlie authorities, who. however, wish to avoid even the appearance of harshness in dealing with those eases. The secret examination Saturday of Mr. R.-e 11 ’ tone developed nothing which was not alreaW known. The examination is being continued today.

Reeves Placed In Jail. Havana. June 2.—A warrant was issued yesterday for the arrest of Fortner Deputy Auditor AV. H. Reeves, who was judged in jail, his bail being fixed at $1,500. It i® now believed that Reeves in his so-called "confession" only gave half the Truth. Indeed the delay in behind the bars was largely due to the desire of the officials to obtain the remainder of his information regarding Neely's exoluthins. k? Neely Only Wanted Halt. Havana, June s.—Acting Director of Posts Bristow Inquired as to the amount of postal funds taken-ty C. F. W. Neely, in May, 1899 and ascertained that it was $31,312.95. Neely’s monthly average was about $17,000. His of book keeping was simplkby itself. Apparently be merely divßed the amounts received, taking one-half for himself and accounting for the other.

Extradition Papers Signed. New York. June 4.—Gov. Roosevelt yesterday signed the Neely extradition papers and they have been forwarded to Washington. The finding of pearls of value in the regular oyster of commerce is a rare occurrence, though the reports of such finds are frequent. © <egal Advertising. A PPOINTMENT OF ADMINISTIf<jH'< iR.
