The Spanish steamer Alfonso XIII, whioh sailed from Havana for Spain, had on board 432 Span iards who are being repatriated at the expense of the Madrid Govern ment. ' Claus Spreckels has purchased a fishery on Prince of Wales Island, Alaska, and a large fish guano works will be erected. The product will be carried direct to Hawaii, where there is a ready market for it.' They have the king of calamity howlers over in Kansas. A num ber' of farmers were congratulating themselves on their splendid crops, when one of their number remarked with a sigh that "it was ' mighty tough on the lend." Five hundred soldiers were sur rounded on the Weret river, in China, by 10,000 robbers and a des perate fight occurred, ending in a victory for the robbers, who have hoisted their flags upon all com mand ng points and occupied the villages in the vicinity. They fish with ' horses up in Alaska.' Immense nets are carried out from the gently receding beach into the ocean and after the schools of salmon make their appearance are hauled in by horses. The larg est haul on record was made the other day when nine'y thousand salmon were captured. It seems incredible until we remember that all fish 'life swarms in the northern wat6ri. ;, The largest previous oap tare was" forty-five thousand. Our people who are used to viewing the royal Chinook salmon should not think such were caught up north. The Alaskan salmon range from fifteen to twenty-four inches. A friend of Youth's Companion oalls attention to some of the many valuable properties of lemon juioe. It has been shown that any acid is fatal to the cholera bacillus, and one of the best means of avoiding the disease by one in the midst of an epidemic is to aoidulate the drinking water with lemon or lime Juioe or citric aoid. Lemonade is regarded ' by .many physicians as very useful in the treatment of in fluenza, and a Brazilian physiolan has recently M asserted ,that,' Citrio aoid is an almost infallible remedy in i ! the, prevention ', iid';oure 'pf; whooping-coush.

Going down is to much easier than coming up that it ba taken Lieutenant Hobson six months to raise a couple of warships j that Admiral Dewey sent to the bottom of. Manila bay in about fifteen min utes.. .... It is given out that the War De partment has issued orders for the purchase of 30,000 horses for the Department of the Pacific, 10,000 for . the Department of the Lakes and 6000 for the Department of the Kast. The following is quoted by an ex change: "The United States Su preme Court recently handed down a decision' to the effect that poultry running at large is wild game, and (hat the same, or any other fowle that may trespass, can be legally killed." ' Admiral Dewey's salary amounts to $37.50 a day ; President McKin ley's is equal to $181 a day; Cab inet officers, the vice president and the Speaker of the House get $22 per day; senators and congressmen $13.00, and the chief justice of the supreme court, $29 a day According to Dr. Schwartz, of Berlin, marriage is the' most i in portant factor of longevity. Of everv 200 persons who reach the age of fcrty years 125 are married ana 10 unmarried, ai sixty tile proportions are 48 to 22; at seventy years, 27 to 11 ; and - at ninety years, nine to eight. Fifty cente narians had all been married. It is stated that a highly impor tant step looking toward the inde pendence of Curia is about to be taken by President' MoKinley, which will be made pnblio in the shape of a presidential proclamation to be issued first on the Inland of Cuba. . Mr. . McKinley'e proclama tion will inform the people of Cuba that the taking of the census is to be interpreted as the first step toward independence, and when it is completed it will be followed by the holding of local elections in the provinces and the establishment of local government. If these work satisfactorily, the next step will be the withdrawal of the American troops from the island ' Here is a mathematical novelty A farmer in India owning seven' .teen elephants, died, and in his will gave t ;e elephants to his three sons; to the first one, one-half, to the second, one-third, and to the third, one ninth. ' As the elephants could not be divided that way; the three sons were-, in a quandary when a neighbor came to the rescue and said : "I own one elephant, whioh I will put with yours, making 18 in all. So he divided them: of 18 equals 9; yi of 18 equals 6; and 1-9 of 18 equals 2; total, 17." Each son now has his full allotment and it was ' found that one elephant re mained,' which' of course belonged to the neighbor farmer. Where is the "catoh" in the problem? ; i ; ' Chronic Diarrhoea Cared. , .' 'This is to certify that I- have had ohronio diarrhoea ever since the war.
