GAVE ALL A MERRY CHASE
One of the Two Beauts Started "Was a

Feast on Meat Slain
Friday.
SMEDES, Miss., Nov. 15. No fresh bear
skin had been hung up today at the camp
on the Little Sunflower up to "4:30 this
afternoon. At that hour, the President,
Mr. Mcllhcnny and Hoke Collier were
still out in pursuit of a bear started earlj; j
in tne rang out xne remamoer oi .
G ?T 3 s Z lL Sfi J hfr to
20 of the 2S dogs had straggled back to
camp, completely rucKerea ouu xne x-ro-p,rfl
ident had hard luck today. Twice he
narrowly missed a chance for a shot.
The pack spilt almost immediately after
leaving this morning. Hoke Collier, with
half the hounds, followed the trail of one
bear down the river and nothing has
neen nearu aim ut
besir went in the onnoslte direction and !
!.. .u n.M. tW rr.W I
gave me rrawraw ue oiu iu-
of the party and the other half of the .
pack of dogs a merry c ase. Hewas a
big fellow and kept well ahead of the
dogs. He was cut off several times and
threshed up and down the brush over an
area of about four square miles. Once
Mr. Dickinson and Major Helm came
close by but they aid not get a glimpse
of him. At one stage Mr. Foote. who
was with the President, heard the dogs
quartering through the woods about them
and by hard riding he and the President
managed to reach a cut-off ahead of the
pack. They waited and Mr. Foote felt
certain that the President was at last to
have a shot, but they were too late. In
about five minutes the dogs swept by In
full cry within 20 yards of them, but old
"bruin "had passed before they got there.
Two hours later the President had an
other unfortunate experience. The dogs
were by this time playing out rapidly,
owing to the excessive heat, but five of
them had hung on and finally brought the
beast to bay in a dense thicket. .The Pres
ident and Mr. Foote heard the dogs fight
ing him and got within 100 yards of the
row on their horses. There they dis
mounted and went in, but the bear evi
dently heard them and, fanning off the
dogs, turned and fled before the President
got sight of him. The fact that he dis
posed of the dogs so easily indicates that
he was a large, strong brute and this
was proved later when he went into the
identical water hole where the first bear
was bayed yesterday. t .
Secretary Cortelyou and Dr. Lung, who
were in the thicket close Jay, heard the
splash, but the animal did not stop and
neither of them got up In time for a
shot. When they examined the queer
footprints where he went in, which meas
ured eight inches across, the experts fig
ured that this Indicated that he was very
large, probably weighing 400 pounds.
Tomorrow, there will be no hunt. The
dogs will be rested anuVthe pursuit of
bear will be resumed on Monday.
The two bears killed yesterday fur
nished meat for camp last night and to
day. RECAPTURED TOWN.

be entirely Just and equitable In an an
swer which the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company filed with the Interstate Com
merce Commission today In response to
the complaint of William R. Hearst, of

fields are exacting unjust discriminative
rates for the transportation of anthracite
coal from the Pennsylvania fields to New

Hq was carried to the . deck of the ship,
and Dr. C. H. Wheeler was called, but

VLADIVOSTOK SACRIFICED FOR

Criticism of the Russian Govern
ment's Promotion Schemes Ocean
Port With Mnny Disadvantages.
ST. PETERSBURG, -Jttov. 2. Details of
Finance Minister Witte's journey to the
far East are beginning to arjlve here by
post. A letter dated- October 12 describes
his stay at Vladivostok. The -principal
matter laid before him there was peti
tions for a free -port for ships at Vladivo
stok, for exemption of all Chinese goods
from customs duties, for commercial and
naval schools at Vladivostok, for free
dom of commerce in transit from customs
inspection at Vladivostok, and for vari
ous, minor reforms In the customs fn-
spectlon in the Interests of passenger traf
fic.
It is generally realized here that the
abolition of the free port at Vladivostok
has dealt a most severe blow at the city's
prosperity; nor are voices wanting In the
criticism of the scheme of the Minister
of Finance in the modern and costly new
Citv of Dalnv. The Dalnv Vostock of
Port ArthUr not only throws doubt upon
the necessity for fountains and parks In
a city which so far has no inhabitants,
but pronounces the choice of the site for
the new city most unfortunate. Dalny has
no natural harbor, lylnp on the open sea,
where the water Is shallow. The artifi
cial harbor had tobe connected with the
sea by a canal two miles long, which It Is
dangerous to approach In . even .moderately
windy weather on account-"of-the rocks
and sand on both sides.
Up to February, JC.500,000 had been spent
at Dalny; only half was for the harbor.
Work on the harbor had to be stopped
half way because the appropriation had
been exceeded. The splendid-looking
brick and stone houses, however, are be
lieved to be exceedingly Inconvenient and
cold; the architects having, as is usual
with Russian architects, subordinated the
Interior arrangements for comfort a"hd
convenience wholly to supposed exterior
beauty.
The Dalny Vostock says that Inkou. on
the River Liao, should have been selected
as principal shipping point of the Man
churlan Railway, the Chinese transit trade
having taken this route for ages. Dalny
is no longer an ice-free port since the
moles of the artificial harbor cause an
accumulation of Ice floes that were for-
merly swept away by the wind. It is
feared that . official favor will never be
able to make Dalny a genuine competitor
of Inkou. which is over 150 miles nearer
the Manchurlan market.
The report of the Minister of the Inte
rior on the famine relief of 1901 is consid
ered an Important document. M. von
Plehewe admits that the central govern
ment did not distinguish Itself In thii
work, which it withdrew from the hands
of the Zemstbcvs in 1900. many local offi
cials taking action only after the need
was very great. The Minister recom
mends a partial return to the old system,
declaring that no form of relief is com
parable to public works, and that only
the Zernstoevs can take such, work.
M. Plehewe also admits the "famine of
1901 not only had extremely unfavorable
results for the afflicted districts, but tes
tified to the general deterioration of the
condition of the peasants."
KRUGEIt SAVED UITLAXDERS.
So He Says in Ills Memoirs The Last
, War.
LONDON, Nov. 15. The Times pub
lishes this morning another page of ex
tracts from the memoirs of Mr. Kruger,
dealing with the history of the Tranwaal
and his own successive terms of office as
President. Mr. Kruger enters at great
leugth Into the circumstances of the
Jnjneson raid, and declares that It Avas ,
only his Influence and his threat t,o re
sign the Presidency which prevented the
burghers from attacking and shooting
down all the foreign Inhabitants of Jo-hannesburgi-
The ex-President explains that partic
ulars of the course of the war with the
British, and of its vicissitudes, would not
come within the scope of the memoirs, as
he took no personal part In the fight. He
describes the harassing life he led at this
period, directing and advising the Boer
leaders. His sleep was broken many
times every night to attend to despatches,
etc. He gives minute details of the ro
moval of the Boer government from Pre
toria, and mys it was a ad blow to him.
especially as his wife was then so old
and weak that he could not think of tak

description of Mr. Kruger's journey to

matter of the peace negotiations he left
everything to the discretion of the Gen
erals. BIOXARCHS WERE MATCH-MAKING.
Edward and Wllllnm Dlscnssed Xew
Dynastic Alliance.
BERLIN. Nov. 15. One of the objects
of OEmperor JVMIam's visit to King Ed
ward was to discuss the betrothal of
Crown Prince Frederick William and
Princess Alice of Albany, who is a charm
ing girl, 19 years of age. The Duchess of
Albany went to England on the Imperial
yacht Hohenzollern and proceeded to
Sandrlngham with the Emperor. Princess
Alice and the Crown Prince are second
cousins and are described as mutually
sympathetic She has been Prussianized
by having lived In Germany the "greater
part of the last three years with her
mother and has been under the observa
tion from time to time of Emperor Wil
liam and the Empress.
A dynastic alliance such as this Is re
garded on the political side as bringing
Great Britain and Germany closer to
gether and would from that standpoint be
unpopular In Germany. Prlricess Alice's
brother.the young Prince' of Coburg, is a

More Important.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 15. No feature of
the foreign commerce of the United Statco
Is more Interesting or more suggestive
than the figures which show the growth
in Importations of manufacturers' mate
rials. The September report of the Treas
ury Bureau of Statistics shows that the
Importations of manufacturers' materialo
In the nine months ending with, Septem
ber, 1902, were .not only larger than In
the corresponding period of any .preceding
year, but formed a. larger percentage, of
the total. Imports than on any preceding
Occasion.. -The total Importation of man
ufacturers' materials In the nine months
ending with September. 1902, amounted to
5325.771,211, and formed. 46.39 per cent of
the total Imports. A comparison of these
figures, with those' for the corresponding,
period of 1E90 show an increase of 60 per
cent In the importations of manufactur
ers' materials during that time, the total
Importation of manufacturers' materials
In the -nine months of 1S90 having been
$206,724,9G0. The share v.'hlch manufactur
ers' materials formed of the total imports
In 1S90 -was only 33.03 per cent, as against
4C.29 per cent Jn the corresponding months
of 1902. ,
Tho table which follows shows the total
Importations of manufacturers' materi

Imports covering the. same period shows
that the importation of manufacturers'
materials lias Increased with far greater
rapidity than that of other Imports. The
total , Imports of all classes of articles In
the nine months ending with September,
190. were $571,835.2S7. and In the nine
months of 1M2. 5702.155.675. Of tho total
Imports In the nine months of 1890, manu
facturers' materials amounted to $206,724,

the nine months of 1902 manufacturers'
materials were $325,771,211, and all other
articles', $37G,3S4.4G4. It will be seen from
this that the importation of manufactur

Cntnrrh Is a Disease That Does Xot

There are a vast multitude of people
who can subscribe to the above state

life-long disease unless cured. Catarrh is
a disease that does not cure itself, and Is
not easily cured by the best of remedies.
The doctors all try to treat catarrh.
Their remedies generally fall to cure.

it to a spirit of retaliation on the part
of Canadians for statements of a similar
character made on the other eide of the
controversy by Americans. Speaking of
the story of rrionuments reported to have
been found along the line of the Port

say that the piles of stone spoken of were
placed there years ago by a naval or mili

of Congress. They were originally small
stone houses, used mostly as warehouses,

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is
ln Preserving Health and Beauty.
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
Is the safest and most efficient disinfect
ant and purifier in nature, but few real
ize its value when taken into the human
system for the same cleansing purpose.
" Charcoal is a remedy that the more you
take of it the better; It is not a drug at
all, but simply absorts the gases and Im
purities always present In tho stomach
and Intestines and carries them out of
the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking, or after eating onions
and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and im
proves the complexion. It whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the Injurious gases whldh
collect ln the stomach and bowels; it dis
infects the mouth and throat from the
poison of catarrh. . 0 .
All druggists sell charcoal in one form
or another, but probably the best char
coal and the most for the money Is In
Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges; they are
composed of the finest powdered Willow
charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics
In tablet form or rather In the form of
large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the
charcoal being mixed with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell In a much Improved condition
of the general health, better complexion,
sweeter breath and purer blood, and the
beauty of It Is. that no possible harm can
result from tnelr contmuea use, cut on
the contrary, .great benefit.
A Buffalo physician in speaking of the
benefits of charcoal, says: "I advise
Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges to all pa
tients suffering from g.ii in stomach ind
bowels, and to clear tho complexion and
purify the breath, mouth and throat; 1
also believe the liver Is greatly benefited
by the dally use of them; they cost but
twenty-five cents a box at drug stores,
and although in some sense a patent
preparation, yet I believe I get more and
better charcoal ln Stuart's Absorbent
Lozenges than in any of the ordinary
charcoal tablets."

Sometimes three or four. As a
rule, however, they are gen
erally obliged to resort to Pe
runa at last. In Peruna they find what
they hive been reeking a perfect cure.
A cure that lasts. A host of people have
spent thousands of dollars to get rid of
catarrh, and afterward were cured by a
half dozen botttles of Peruna.
Many Have Catarrh and Don't
Know It.
Catarrh is almost a national
curse. Nearly everybody has had
It more or less. A majority of peo
ple who have catarrh in Its incipient
stage don't know it. v Catarrh will
produce so many different condi
tions that It Is no wonder that it is
so often not recognized.
Catarrh will produce deafness. Will af
fect the eyesight.
Catarrh will enlarge the tonsils and will
make the throat sore.
Catarrh will cause consumption, dys
pepsia, kidney disease and so many other
maladies that it Is no wonder that doctors
fall to recognize It.
