Lord Pauncefote, the British ambassador is dying of a broken heart, due to criticism of his account during the Spanish war; hope of recovery has been abandoned. One thing, at least, has been settled; an automobile can’t butt a fast express train off the track. There are five witnesses waiting to be callednow in the hospital at New York. John Alexander Dowie at the funeral of his daughter said disobedience of his order caused fatal burns and made prayer for her recovery useless. Special trains took funeral party to Zion. Governor Taft sailed Saturday for Rome to negotiate with the representatives of the Vatican for the purchase of the far lands in the Philippines. Upon the conclusion of his mission in Rome he will proceed to Manila by the eastern route. “How many zones have we, Willie?” asked the teacher of a pupil in the junior class. “Four,” was the reply. “Well then, name the four,” said the teacher. “The frigerated, the horrid, the temperance and the intemperance,” answered the little fellow. A Greenup editor relates the following: “When first he came to see her, he showed a timid heart, and even when the lamp was low, they sat very far apart. But as the joy and bliss, their love grew farmer, they learned and soon began you know tosetupclose like this. The Paris Acadamic of Sciences is examining a remarkable theory to the effect that the key to human stature lies in the gland situated in the throat under the larynx. By artificially stimulating this gland, it is claimed that anv child can be made to grow to maximum height. Thomas K. Beecher, who recently died, once prefaced a sermon preached at Plymouth, for his brother, with the startling intimation: “All those who have come here to worship Henry Ward Beecher will now have a chance to retire; all those who have come to worship God will remain.” Commenting on President Roosevelt’s expressed desire to be the first man to make an ascent in the airship of Santos-Dumont in this country. “Cholly Knickerbocker” wants to know, you know, if he will not be stopped by the unwritten law which prohibits the chief magistrate of this country from leaving the United States during his term of office. Atlantic City, N. J., is likely to loose some of its popularity as a resort. A judge there has just decided that married women should be at home by 10 o’clock. From this it would indicate that the honorable judge sanctioned the staying out all night, of young ladies. However this supposition is in line with the practise of some young people in this city. A New York judge has decided that a husband can not obtain a divorce because his wife hit him once over the head with a poker. Had the weapon been used diverse and sundry times there would have been ample grounds for separation. From this ruling it is readily seen that all the wife need do is to change the weapons each time and her liege lord will have no recourse under the law. The latest and most refreshing Sun day school incident is the following: The teacher had grown eloquent in picturing to his little pupils the beauties of heaven, and he finally asked. “What kind of boys go to heaven?” A little four-year-old l>ov, with kicking boots, flourished his fist. "Well, you may answer,” said the teacher. "Dead ones!" the little fellow shouted at the extent of his lungs. Patriotic societies will be interested in Mrs. John King Van Rensselaer’s tale, half fact, half fiction, called “The First Loye of Aaron Burr,” which appears in the June Lippincott.

The never failing novel of the month in the .lune Lippincott is attractively named “AReal Daughter of the Revo lution.” It is by Caroline Gebhardt, whose Southern birth has inspired her to write of the struggle for liberty as it centres to a finish at Yorktown. The heroine is a beauty whose family are in sympathy with the red coats, but she releases their prisoner, her unacknowledged lover, sides with Sumter raiders, and flouts the advances of the English commander, who is quartered on her father’s plantation. The closing scenes at Yorktown are written with a patriotic ring that will thrill the descendants of the Real Daughter of the Revolution,”

Indiana Medical and Surgical Institute, The Oldest, The Largest, The Best. THIRTY YEARS EXPERIENCE, eMoqy Imitators but qo Rqual Permit us to call the attention of our readers to the important fact that there are three essential steps in the successful treatment of disease. First, a correct diagnosis; second, the selection of the proper remedies in their best possible! form, and third, a thorough knowledge of knowing how to prepare these {remedies and their physiological effects upon the human body, in order to effect a cure. In the three above named facts Dr. D. W. Tucker has no equal in the state of Indiana. He has treated many thousands of cases within the last thirty years. If one-fourth of the people that are now in the cemetery had consulted and been treated by some good Specialist instead of their family doctor, they| would have lived twenty years longer. Only a Specialist who thoroughly understands Chronic Diseases, can treat them successfully. Dr. Tucker is without doubt the ablest Specialist in this state, and has treated and cured more Chronic and Private Diseases than all the other Specialists in this state combined. A doctor that has restored thousands to health, and can produce undeniable proof of the fact, must be regarded with respect. This is the record of Dr. Tucker, which can not be equaled by any other Specialist in the United States. His success is the result of THIRTY YEARS of careful study, extensive research, observation and remarkable experience in the treatment and cure of thousands of Chronic and Private Diseases [of the Brain, Heart, Lungs, Liver, Kidneys, Bladder, Rectum, Gleet, linpotency, Nervous Diseases, Catarrh, Piles, Varicocele, Strictures, all Private Disease of both sex. If Dr. Tucker can not cure you no other Specialist in the United States can. He has deposited in bank ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS that he has treated more eases of Chronic Diseases and performed more remarkable cures than any THREE SPECIALISTS in the state of Indiana. He will not deceive you, and guarantees to cure every case he takes for treatment. He is vouched for by the best banks and citizens of the state. The only Master Specialist in the State of Indiana can be found only at the Indiana Medical and Surgical Institute, at No. io West Waynestreet. Call on or address, DR. D. W.
