Two years ago, back in Eastern Iowa,
(Miss Maude Lease began to go into a
decline. She lost flesh rapidly. Her
appetite failed. Fearful headaches
nearly drove her frantic. She consulted
local physicians Rood, honest, practi
tioners. ' They told her that her lungs
were affected: that medicine might
alleviate, but a change of climate was
the only remedy that offered a prospect
of oure. ." '
111 and despondent she delayed as
long as possible her departure, but at
last it became imperative, and she
came to an aunt at Verdi, Nevada, in
the hope of finding health and strength
in the pure air and among the pines of
the Sierra Nevada. But she con
tinned to fail, and to add to her mis
eries, learned to know the anguished
sufferings which attend that complica
tion of ills, that for want of better
nomenclature, has been denominated
"female weakness."

TARIFF BJtU CHANGES.
A General
Itemodeltnf fey
Committee.
tee leaat
Washington, April 8. The Bepub
lioans ot the senate committee on
finance are continuing their work day
and night on the tariff bill with the In.
tentiou of reporting it to the senate at
the earliest possible day, They are
not prepared to give out any results ol
their investigations and state that they
have not reached any conclusions sa to
the proposed changes. There is, how
ever, a well-defined impression about
the senate that the bill will be gener
ally remodeled and the rates considers
bly reduced in many schedules.
There is a general belief among West
ern senators that there will be material
changes in rates on wools, especially
those of the third olass.
Among other suggestions urged is a
return to the Wilson law of 8 oents a
pound duty on hops, instead of IS
cents, as proposed by the Dingley bill.
It is claimed that the proposed increase
will be an injury rather than benefit
to the producer, and a hardship to the
consumer.
There is muoh contention about the
lumber schedule. The American lum
bermen interested in Canadian forests
appear to be especially concerned over
the Dmgley rates.
.. The committee is not receiving sny
verbal statements exoept from senators,
but is giving close attention to type
written presentations of tact and argu
ment Secretary Gage Will Coaaply.
Washington, April 6. Secretary
Oage today announced that he had de
cided to comply with the requirements
of section S7, of the pending tariff bill,
providing for the retention of samples
of merchandise, imported under orders
given subsequent to April 1, and which
were not purchased and directed by
the owner to be shipped for import
into the United States prior to April 1.
This action, however, will be taken un
der section 849 of the revised statutes,
which authorises the secretary to exer
cise a superintendency of the collection
of customs duties.
Dleeaesed by Americans la France.
London, April 8. The Times will
publish a dispatch from its Paris corre
spondent, saying:
The Dmgley tariff bill baa caused
considerable excitement among Ameri
can business houses here. The ques
tions growing out of it have been dis
cussed at a large meeting of the Ameri
can chamber of commerce, at whioh
the American embassy wss represented
by Henry Wignaud, secretary of Am
bassador Eustis. The vice-president of
the chamber said:
"America sends France 180.000.000
francs' worth of goods duty free, ss
against 80,000.000 worth sent by
France, duty free, to America. The
chamber suggests that the United Sataes
should reduce the tariff in some import
ant French exports, the natural result
of which would be that France would
admit many American manufactures at
a reduced tariff. The advantage to
America under existing condition! by
France admitting some articles at the
minimum tariff is over 18,000,000
trsncs. The chamber hopes that Presi
dent HcKinley's request for additional
discretionary power may be granted, so
that reciprocal commercial relations
may be established in order to open new
markets Tor manufactured American
products."

Tarkey Wants to right, Toa.
Constantinople, April 5. The fight
ing Detween the Christians and the
Mussulmans, which is daily reported

pose to the powers that Turkey herself

St. Petersburg, April 5. A blockade

A FARMERS' TRUST.
Aa Alleged Plot ta Control the rredaee
Markets.
Toledo, April 6. Farmers are trying
to form a trust It is to spread all over
the land, and if oresent Plans carry,
not a dollars' worth of farm proudce of
anr kind will be sold for general oon
sumption. In a nutshell, the idea is
for the fanners to limit crops to the
actual liivng needs ot the members of
tha trust The organisation Is secret,
oathbound, and its principles known
Just now to only a seleot few outside ot
those directly concorned in its devoi
ooment According to the promoters.
however, the country Is practically in
condition to be plaoed in the grip of
this remarkable combine.
Lancaster, Pa., was the birthplace of
the trust. It saw light there several
months ago, and was incorporated un
der the laws of New Jersey as the Agri
culturalists' National Protective Asm
elation. The supreme body is made up
of one representative from each state,
whose duties are similar to those ot the
board of directors of an ordinary cor
poration. Eaoh state has a subordinate
hoard of directors, consisting of one re
presentative from each congressional
district Each district In turn is gov
erned by a board of two members from
each county. Koch county is under con
trol of a board of from five to eleven in
number, who direct the movements of
the township organisations.
It is the purpose to do nothing this
year in the way of controlling the mar
kets, because the organisation is not
complete. Next year, however, the
crops will be limited to actual living
needs of members.
It the plan is carried out. not a dol
lars' worth of farm produot of any kind
will be sold for general consumption, it
being the purpose to compel the people
to import all food prodnots. It is be
lieved that by this method the power
of the association can best make itself
felt
Ta Kaable tha Deaf to Hear.
JSew York, April . It is an
nounced from Denver that Professor
Dussand, of the university there, has
invented an apparatus to enable the
deaf to hear. A microphonograph he
has just issued magnifies the human
voice in the same way that a lens mag
nifies matter. It is simply a telephone
connected electrically with a phono
graph, but a far more sensitive phono
graph than Edison's ordinary model.
A battery of from one cell to sixty, ac
cording to the degree ot deafness, is
used.
Of course the apparatus Is useless in
the case of absolute deafness, but such
infirmity is far rarer than is supposed.
Ninety-five per cent of stone-deat per
sons can be made to hear and under
stand by Dussand's invention. Ton
speak into the phonograph and make it
repeat the words which are transmitted
by a sort of microphone and speaking
tube into the deaf ear. Professor Dus
sand is preparing for the 1900 exhibi
tion an apparatus whioh will enable
10,000 people who may all be deaf to
follow the lecture. .
Butler Tried Suicide.
San Francisco, April 8. Murderer
Butler has made bis anticipated at
tempt at suicide. Despite the presence
in his cell day and night of guards sup
posed to be watchful, the fiend of the
Blue mountains almost suoceeded in
cheating the gallows today. Early this
morning Butler was observed to be un
usually quiet Investigation showed
that his blanket was tight-drawn over
his head, and when that was removed
bis face was found to be covered with
blood. Butler has allowed his thumb
nail to grow very long, and with the
nail bad opened an artery in his fore
head from which be hoped to bleed to
death. The wound was closed and
greater precautions than ever will now
be taken to preserve his life at least
until after be sails on the Mariposa for

Colonel Grant Declined.
New York, April 5. Colonel Fred
D. Grant has deioded to decline Presi
dent McKinley's offer of the position
of first assistant secretary of war.
Mr. Garnt sent the following tele
gram to President McKinley:
"Altohugh yon are pleased to urge

possible for me to consider the position
of assistant secretary of war, which you
were good enough to offer me. , I there

ment, at the same time regretting that
I am not to serve the administration.
for which I worked earnestly."
Mr. Grant declined to be interviewed
