FIRED ON BY REBELS.

Brazilian Ineurgenta Tackle Our Warships at Rio. Admiral Benham Return* the Shot* and They Are Compelled to CeaseMusket Shot* Alone, However, Are Exchanged. AN ACT OF WAR. Washington, Feb. I.—Ata late hour Tuesday night the following details from the official advices of the navy department are learned concerning the incidents on the 29th at Rio de Janeiro: “Previous to the 29th Admiral Benham had communicated with Admiral da Gama, warning him against firing upon American ships and refusing to accept the insurgent commander's excuse that he had given warning concerning where the danger line was. The commanders of three American ships having signified their desire to go to the wharves on the morning of the 29th, the American admiral sent word that he would convoy them. He also sent word to Admiral da Gama to that effect Two ships were convoyed to the wharves by the Detroit, the Insurgent warships following them.

“When nearly at the wharf and while a tug was taking a cable ashore the insurgent warships opened fire, sending a volley of musket shot under the bow of the tug. The Detroit answered with a warning shot and the insurgent ship then sent a shot over the Detroit. The Detroit in reply sent a shell which reached a portion of the stern of the insurgent ship, doing little damage. The insurgent commander then fired in warning a broadside to leeward in the opposite direction from which the Detroit lay. This was answered by another shot from the Detroit The insurgents signaled that unless the Detroit ceased firing they < the insurgents) would sink the American ship. The language which was used by the American admiral in answer to this signal was of such a nature that the incident closed for that day and the ships were allowed to land.’’ Rio de Janeiro, Jan. 31.—The following has been made to the Associated press correspondent by Admiral Benham, commander of the United States fleet in this harbor: “The insurgent forces on Cobras island last Friday fired upon a ship flying the United States flag. I protested to Admiral Saldahna da Gama against this action, and his response was that he had warned the commander of the ship when it was at the bar at Rio Janeiro as to the whereabouts of t£e danger line. I ordered Admiral da Gama to cease the firing. “Both the gons on the island of Cobras and the guns of the insurgent warship Trajano opened tire Saturday upon the bark Agate, a Vessel hailing from New York. I warned Admiral da Gama at once that if the tire was repeated I would lire back. “I also warned him that if he touched an American ship I would consider him a pirate. I told him I would protect American property from the tire of his guns, and that I should retaliate upon him for any damage done unless it was entirely apparent that the damage was due to chance shots.” Admiral Benham says that he notified Admiral dy, Gama unofficially that firing by the insurgents upon the wharves for the purpose merely of creating terror and to prolong a blockade would not be permitted so far as Americans and American vessels were concerned. To this communication the insurgent admiral made no answer. The captains of the American vessels. Admiral Benham continues, intimated that they wanted to go to the wharves and the American admiral notified Admiral da Gama that it was his intention to convoy them at sunrise on Monday. Fearing trouble Admiral Benham ordered that the vessels of his fleet be cleared for action. The three ships referred to were the Amy, the Good News and the Julia Rollins. The captains of two of the ships weakened and failed to come into the harbor. The Amy was the only one that ventured in, and she was escorted by the United States cruiser Detroit. As a precaution against any possible aggressive action on the part of the insurgents the cruisers New York, Charleston and Newark were assigned to witch the actions of Da Gama’s ship Aquidaban, while the San Francisco was signaled to take position near the Trajano and the Guanabara. These precautions certainly proved effective, and the insurgents, in the face of the formidable array of American vessels, made but the feeblest attempt to hinder the Amy’s progress to her wharf. No cannon were opended upon her by Da Gama’s vessels, and, as a matter of course, the American vessels did not fire upon the insurgent ships. The insurgent protest consisted of this: As the Amy got , abreast of the Guanabara a marine on the last-named vessel aimed a musket at her and fired. Two musket shots were fired at the Guanabara and the Trajano from the Amy’s escort, the Detroit, in return. This was all the firing done during the Amy’s trip, and it was enough. All opposition ceased at once, and the use of heavy guns was not considered necessary at any time. At a later hour Admiral da Gama conferred with his officers upon the advisability of surrendering to the Detroit in consequence of the musket shots fired. He was dissuaded from doing so, but it is thought possible that he may yet decide to surrender to the American commander. There is no doubt that Admiral da Gama is in a bad way. A proposed compromise has been refused by I’eixoto’s government, and it seems to be only a matter of time when he will have to give up the struggle. The complications of the insurgent situation are increased by the absence of Admiral de Mello. The failure of the latter admiral to arrive here to the assistance of the insurgent fleet has given rise to the report that he is dead. The commanders of sixteen warships here, including five American and four British and French, have sent messages to Admiral Benham congratulating him upon his prompt action.

A NEW ENGLAND MIRACLE

A Railroad Engineer Relates His Experience. • The Wonderful Story Told by Fred C. Vose and Hi* Mother-In-Law to • Reporter of the Boston Herald— Both Are Kfutored Attar Years of Affony, [From the Boston Herald. 1 The vast health-giving results already attributed by the newspapers throughout this country and Canada to Dr. Williams’ “Pink Pills for Pale People” have been recently supplemented by the cases of two confirmed invalids in one household in a New England town. The names of these people are Fred C. Vose, his wife and his mother-in-law, Mrs. Oliver C. Holt,of Peterboro, mem, bers of the same household. To the Hcr<Ud reporter who was sent to Investigate his remarkable cure Mr. Vose said: “1 am 37 years old, and have been railroading for the .Fitchburg for 15 years. Since boyhood I have been troubled with a weak stomach. For the past 7 years I have suffered terribly and constantly. My stqmach would not retain food; my head ached constantly and was so dizzy I could scarcely stand; my eyes were blurred; I had a bad heartburn and my breath was offensive. I had physicians, but they failed to help me. My appetite gave out, and four years ago 1 devc.oped palpitation of the heart, which seriously affected my breathing. Had terrible peins in my back and had to make water many times a day. I finally developed pneumatic signs and couldn’t sleep nights. If I lay down my heart would go pit-a-pat at a great rate, and many nights I did not close my eyes at all. I was broken down in body and discouraged in spirit, When some time in Februaiy last, I got a couple of Doxes of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. Before I had finished the first box I noticed that the palpitation of my heart, which had bothered me so that I couldn’t breathe at times, began to improve. I saw that in going to my home on the hill from the depot, which was previously an awful task, my heart did not beat so violently and I had more breath when I reached the house. After the second and third boxes I grew better in every other respect. My stomach became stronger, the gas belching was not so bad, my appetite and digestion improved, and my sleep became nearly natural and undisturbed. I have continued taking the pills three times a day ever since latrt March, and to-day I am feeling better than at any time during the last eight years. I can confidently and conscientiously say that they have done me more good, and thhir good effects aye more permanent, than any medicine I have ever taken. My rheumatic pains in legs 2nd hands are all gone. The pains in the small of my back, which were so bad at times that I couldn’t stand un straight, have nearly all vanished, and I find my kidneys are well regulated by their.. This is an effect not claimed for the pills in the circular, but in my case they brought it about. lam feeling 100 per cent, better ill every shape and manner.” The reporter next saw Mrs. Holt, who said: “I am 57 years old, and for 14 years past I have had an intermittent heart trouble. Three years ago I had nervous prostration, by which my heart trouble was increased so badly that I had to liedown most of the time. My stomach also gave out, and I had continual and intense pain from the back of my nock to the end ofmy backbone. In 14 weeks I spOnt S3OO for doctor bills and medicines, but nay health continued so miserable that I gave up doctoring in despair. I began to take Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills last winter, and the first box made me feel ever so much better. I have taken the pills since February, with the result of stopping entirely the pair, in the spine and in the region of the liver. My stomach is again normal, and the palpitation of the heart has troubled me bat three times since I commenced the pills.” An analysis of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills shows that they contain, in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are an unfailing specifit for such diseases as locomotorataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus’ dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after effect of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions, all forms of weakness either in male or female, and all diseases resulting from vitiated humors in the blood.

A Mist.

She blushed, in sweet confusion. “And what, papa,” she faltered, shyly, “did you think of Lord Eustace?” The old man contemplated her bowed head for a moment in silence. “My child,”’ he answered, slowly, after a time, “it seems to me that his mind is decidedly foggy.” “Papa.” She was kreeling at his feet “Forgive me, my pet—” The father had risen to his feet in alarm. “ if 1 have spoken hastily.” “Papa, lam sure you are right 1 had the same impression, but 1 feared I might be mistaken.

“Sweet Sixteen.”

The beautiful calendars sent out by C. I. Hood & Co., of Lowell, Mass., have attracted much attention in all parts of the country. The calendar bears the head of a lovely girl, “sweet sixteen,” lithographed in delicate colors. Over eight millions of these calendars were made. C. I. Hood & Co., as is well known, are the proprietors of Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which is everywhere a household vJord on account of the wonderful cures that have been effected by means of this great blood purifier.

Seven Pieces of Pie.

A very successful business man was fond of relating the following incident of his boyhood experience. His mother placed him with a family of Friends on a farm in Delaware. At dinner, the day a(ter his arrival, he declined turnips, whereupon the good lady of the household, thinking that he was anticipating the dessert, said, -with a nod toward the center of the table: "If thee doesn’t eat turnips, thee can’t have pie?’ But the boy’s aversion was genuine, and he held out from day to day, till, on the seventh day, the just woman said: "Samuel, I see thee can’t eat turnips; here is thy pie.” and she took from the cupboard the seven pieces of pie he had forfeited during the week.—Golden Days.
