©■ Another Remarkable Destructive Agent to Warships Ready for Trial Before Officials. . SHE IS VERY SIMPLE, BUT VERY WICKED. Torpedo Kctttac is No Protection Afaiait the little Water Devil-The Operator Can Sit In a Boat Two and a Half Miles astern and Send Her Uawrinjly on Her Mission of Destruction. Ntw York, May 7.—The Hal pine torpedo boat lies in the shed at the long- deck at Willett's point, all ready lor her trial before the engineer officers who are to pass judgment upon her. She has been overhauled and put in order during the last two weeks. Her storage batteries have been placed aboard, and she stands ready for service. She is built of copper, 24 feet long and two feet in diameter. The body of the boat is cylindrical in form. Her bow has the shape of a semi-ellipsoid, and her {stern has the shupe of a cone. The superior merit claimed for her by her inventor. Lieut, Ualpine, U. S. N., is that she has the power to shoot her charge can under a warship that has a torpedo net out, that she carries her propelling power aboard of her in storage batteries and docs not need dynamo on land, and that she is a marvel of simplicity. She can be handled from any point, and, if necessary, she can tow a small boat after her, in which the operator ean sit, at a distance of 2}f miles, aud direct her movements. She can run 13

miles, and be started, stopped and backed by only pressing a small button. There are two wire cables, each two and a half miles in length aboard, which uncoil and connect her with the operator. One of the cables controls the boat, while the other steers her. She carries two lights, which reflect * their lights backward, so they are seen by the operator only and not by the hostile ships, keeping the opera tor'infortued as to the actions of the boat. If one is above the others site is going ahead. If sideways, she is making for the stern or boa* of a warship. No light, the boat has stopped. She runs with but, three inches showing above water, but can be submerged to 15 feet. Extending from her bow is a long spar, with two arms extended. Extended again from these is a steel -harpoon with two .arms .lying flat. The harpoon is forced through the net. the artrs, unloosed, spring upon the inside of the net and keep it fastened there. The open arms of the spar strike the net on the outside and drive the spar back into the boat which strikes the trigger. The can, attached to the harpoon by a chain, falls and is swung under the vessel to be destroyed. At the same time the leather cap is torn off the tube of the charge can. This action lets out the potasium, which, on meeting with the water, ignites the rockets, expelling the gas in the can and exploding the charge can. Meanwhile the boat itself has been backed out of danger and returns to the operator only minus a harpoon chain and can. The speed of the Halpine 1s 19 knots an lingy. GEN. STEWART L. WOODFORD Oar Min tutor to Madrid and Members of Ik* Legation Arrive at New York. New York, May 9.—Gen. Stewart L Woodford. late United States minister to Spain, arrived on La Tonraine yesterday morning, and left for Washington yesterday afternoon. La Touraiue also had on board a number of the attaches of the United States legation at Madrid, including George Stanford Sickles, first secretary of the legation; ('apt. T. H. Bliss, Col. Kellogg, military attache, aud C|apt. C. L. Dyer, naval attache. Wsides these, there were Shy Ting, kwretary of the Chinese legation, accompanied by lion. Soo, also of the legation. A reeejrtion committee from the Union League club and U. S. Grant Post 327. G. A. R., met Gen. Woodford at quarantine and accompanied him to

j tots city. * Mr. biekles, when infarmeil that cable dispatches had stated that the train j on which the members of the legation had come from Madrid to l’aris had been ] attacked by a mob. and that stones j « bad been thrown at the party, said: “Well, some things were thrown at the train, but the demonstrations were j not of a serious character. A number of students, not a large number, had gathered at Valladolid and cried, •Long Lire Spain.' and a few other patriotic cries. They were not, directed against us. particularly. I assure you. but were the result of a patriotic feeling on their part. A few windows in one of the cars next to the party were broken, but none of us was injured, no one at all was hurt. While at Madrid we were treated with the utmost courtesy.” When asked how it happened that Minister Woodford had received his passports previous to his handing to the Spanish government the ultimatum of the United States, Mr. Sickles said; “We rather expected that, at least we were not surprised. A Private Dispatch. Wxsuixotox, May Assistant Secretary Vanderlip has received a cablegram from a friend who was on the Me- : Culloch during the great naval engagemeat at Manila, in which he says: “The Spanish fleet of 11 warships was destroyed totally. Best of all, no American ship was lost or even damaged. No American was killed, and only six Americans were injured." Another cablegram received by Mr. Vaoderiip from the commander of the McCulloch, at tiong Kong, states that Chief Engineer F. B. Randall died, mi May 1 of heart disease.

Little Rock, Ark., May 7.— A special from Van Boren, Ark., says: Waterspouts and tornadoes hare played havoc here and done hundreds of thou* sands of dollars' damage. Three houses were blown down at Rudy, .eight miles from here, Thursday night, and it is reported that Winslow, a summer resort on the top of the Boston Mountain, is entirely gone. Two bridges on the Frisco railroad over Clear creek i»»ve been swept away and the road abandoned. Their trains have run for two day* around via Claremore. I.

The Arkansas river is 25 miles wide in places, an4 is now four inches higher than it was in 1895, which was the highest on record. All Thursday night boats were busy in the bottoms rescuing the inhabitants. Thousands were rescued, and it is feared that mauy have been drowned. Two houses were seen going down the river, hut boatmen could not reach them. Th* High-Water Mark Submerged and Great Damage to Growing Crop*. Mi lbekky. Ark..

PATRIOTIC HELEN GOULD, The President Couldn't Receive Her Doom* f lion. So She U Or(inulug no Independent Cavalry Squadron, Ne^ Yobk. May 6.—A short time ago ! Miss Helen Gould sent her Check for j 3100,000 to President McKinley to be used as he deemed proper in the i war. and intimated in the letter ! which accompanied it that she j would like to double the amount. This check was returned by the president because, under the law, he had no power to accept it. Miss Gould was disappointed by the result attending her patriotic offering, but she was not discouraged. She consalted Mrs. Ledyard Stevens, of this city, and was advised by her to expend the money in sending soldiers to Cuba. j This proposition met with Miss j Goulds approbation, and at the sug- | gestion of Mrs. Stevens, George M. j Harbour was consulted as to the best * way to carry out the project. After a i conference it was decided that Mr. Barbour should procure a commission from the Cuban authorities as brigadiergeneral with authority to raise four companies of cavalry of 60 men each to serve in the Cuban army, and to be under the order Cubans exclusively. Miss Gould agreed to pay all the expenses of recruiting these men, to purchase uniforms, norses and equipments, and to pay all transportation to Cuba. This project was submitted by Barbour to the war department, and she was told that if he landed the men i in Cuba free of expense to the government the United States would supply the men with hrms and ammunition. Mr. Barbour has received liis commission andi authority to raise the troops, and having completed his business with the war department, is now recruiting his men.

A CHEERFUL WOMAN. From the Democrat, Brasil, lad. Every woman cannot be beautiful, bat a cheerful face often supplies the deficiency. But no one can be cheerful and bring jov to others unless they have perfect health, fortunately, science has placed this priceless boon within the reach of every woman as the following incident proves: Mrs. Amanda liobiuson, wi fe of William Robinson, farmer 'and stockman, near Howesville, Clay County, Inch, is- thirtytwo years old and had for, several years been in declining health and despondent. For three months she was not only unable to attend to her domestic duties, but too feeble to be up and about. To-day she is in good health and able to attend to her household affairs. She relates her experience as Allows: “I was afflicted with female troubles and was in a delicate state of health. I lost ray appetite, grew thin and was greatly depressed. After taking various remedies without being benefited I was induced by a friend to tryl)r. Williams’ Pink Pills.

fca r l y to the summer of 1887 I procured five boxes of them and before finishing the second box I began to improve and by the time I had taken the five boxes I was

She lost flesh, seemed to be bloodless and had no ambition. She took two boxes of the Sills and they restored her appetite, aided igestion and brought color to her cheeks. She is now in the best of health. I think Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People the best medicine we ever had in ottr family and recommeud them to all needing a remedy for toning up and rebuilding a shattered system." No discovery of modern times has proved juch a blessing to women as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. They restore strength and health to exhausted women when every effort of the physician proves unavailing. These vegetable pills are everywhere recognized, as a specific for diseases •f the blood and nerves.

THE INVENTIVE GENIUS, On the inside cover of a newly-de-sigued watch a thin pocket is provided having «n open center and a slot in one side for the insertion of a photo* graph. Outdoor chairs and benches for parks are provided! with hinged backs, which can be closed over the seat to protect it from the weather and keep it dry when it raius. Ladies’ hats can be safely packed in a new hat box which has a central frame of woven spring wire the shape of the inside of the hat, to prevent it from sliding around in the box. Miniature blank cartridges can be used in large guns and rifles by an Englishman's invention, in which a service cartridge is bored out- in the center to insert the small blanks. A handy pencil sharpener just out has a casing in which a roughened flat grinder is fixed, with a sliding socket for the pencil to rotate it as the socket slides along. . When a newly-designed fountain pen fails to work an auxiliary pen can be pushed down to take its place by operating a sliding ring on the holder, the second pec being intended for use with an ink bottle. The circulation of air in a car is insured by a new attachment having a small windmill outside the window to be revolved as the car moves, the wheel shaft transmitting power through a gear shaft to a fan-wheel inside the jar.

When Dr. Hayes, Buffalo, N. Y., an* i nounccd nearly tweuty years ago. that he 1 could cure Asthma so that the sufferer I would stay cured, few believed him, for they doubted the permanency of the cures which he established. For many years Dr. Hayes has been issuing annually his “Thesis witn Reports of Cases,” each recurring season strengthening his position; and it is a remarkable fact that many of the first cases reported are still represented in his book, for they have stayed cured—some for nineteen years, some for sixteen or more years, others for twelve, ten, eight and six years. The names and addresses of the patients are given in full, so thatanyone who now doubts may consult the former sufferers freely. Dr. Hayes’ practice now extends not only to Great Britain and the continent of Europe, but to India, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa as well. Each patient is treated individually by separate prescriptions varied from time to time as frequent correspondence shows is needed and in this way success is attained in even the most difficult and obstinate cases. Any sufferer or person interested can obtain the latest edition of Dr. Hayes’ book on application on a postal addressed to him at Buffalo. •

When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases of of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
