How many patriotic Americans who
have heard about- the famous "Boston
tea-party." the first practical protect of
the colonists against "taxation without
.representation," know who led the "In
dians" who threw .the tea overltonrd
from the English ships in Boston har
bor? It was Captain Burr .Mcintosh,
and there is a somewhat belated but
nana" ha grown to be the watchword.
It is rich in mineral. Gold, the most
fascinating lure of the fortune-seeker
in every land, exist there In great
abundance. At least these American
concessionaire are no impressed. Doubt
less it is true, for the names connected
"with the development company are of
prominence in the business world, and
the4 men would hardly gamble on a
blind chance. Much gold has been taken
from Nicaragua. More than two cen
turies ago its virgin mines contributed
to the wealth and splendor of old Spain.
Evidence of the activity of the early
fortune hunter abound everywhere.
Their method were not the American
method and with modern machinery
ore can be made to pay richly that in
earlier days held out no temptation to
Vue miner. The Americans have worked
quietly. It i only by the appointment
of an American consular agent at their
new Nicaragua port of IVitrick that
their operation have liecn disclosed
Another example of the power of Amer
ican capital and our 'native enterprise
i here witnessed. Nicaragua is likely
to be the opulent source of. envy to its
Central .American neighbor.

of his life in Boston, went to Haverill,
N. H., where he died in poverty, forgot
ten and neglected by the ungrateful
young republic. Thi act roused the
spirit of resistance to King George's
tyranny in every one of the 13 colonies,
and bore result not long after. Even
though the men did not fire a shot or
face an armed force, had they been
known to the British official it would
have gone bard with them. Augustus
St. Gaudens, the famous American
sculptor, has agreed to furnish the de

Relative to the -spread of typhoid in
Brooklyn the Standard I'nion says:
That typhoid fever is ppidly spreading
in Brooklyn, especially in the neighbor
)khL of Bay Ridg and Bath Beach, is
admitted by some of the " doctors con
nected with the health department and
is well known to a large number of citi
zen. Of course, the primary cause is
the inadequate, water supply, which is
bad in quality as well a deficient in
quantity, but it u also asserted that
much of the milk sold here contains
typhoid germs, owing to the unsanitary
conditions prevailing on some of the
dairy farms which supply the big met
ropolitan companies. For many years
Brooklyn has not had the abundant and
pure water supply it should have, and it
judging by the dilatory method still
pursued, before the new water commis
sion furnishes anything; like genuine re
Jief. In the meantime it will be wise
for housekeeper to boil their water and
milk during the torrid season before
consuming it; and by boiling is meant
not mere heating, but 'keeping it in a
6tate of bubbling agitation until it
reaches 212 degrees Fahrenheit, when
alone the killing of disease germs ran
be made sure of. Of course, this in
volves more or less trouble, and doubt
less in the great majority of instances
it is unnecessary, yet it is better to be
on the safe side. Possibly a good many
folk will be inclined to save time and
gratify their appetites by substituting
beer for water, arguing that the water
in ale and lager has been either boiled
or distilled. But then they would prob
ably drink beer any way, and are only
too glad to get a fresh excuse. Spring
and mineral waters would be a still
better substitute, though, of -eourie,
every one is not able to afford such
luxuries. Boiling the water and milk
liefore drinking costs no more than a
little extra labor, and the contentment
afforded by a sense of safety is worth
all the trouble ten times over.
Yet this is how it came alout ,
She went to Cupid's shop
And told exactly what she wished
.Without a single stop:
"A man of fully six feet two,
With hair of raven wave,
A noble brow, a Samson' strength,
The. bravest of the brave."
The graceless clerk then shook his head
As every salesman should.
"All out of that," he said, "but here
Is something just a good."
The little chap was sent next day;
The neighbors cry with vim:
Now what on earth do you suppose

The rise of Nicaragua is foreseen in
the operations of a gigantic commercial
and development company, to which a
third of the country has been practi
cally conceded by the government. Here
is a story, fit theme for a novelist, of
the peaceful aggrandizement of Ameri
can capital. Railroads, telegraph and
telephones are being built, ports and
waterways opened, schools and hospi
tals founded for the natives and for
what! That the privilege of develop
ing their territory may -be had by a
group of progressive Americans., The
concession, it is reported, covers every
thing and gives the company a perYect
monopoly.
Nicaragua will benefit. Decades, cen
turies even, have passed since anything
like activity has been witnessed in this
Central American state, where "ma-
A QUESTION ANSWERED.
The world is such a cheery place
If we but see it so;
That's where beauty everywhere we step
To set tlie heart aglow.
The air i full of rhythmic joy,
The blue shy throb with love,
And every leaf and flower and bird
By pure delight in life i stirred
Its ecstasy to prove.
The world is such a sorry place
If we but see it so;
There's sadness in the skies above
And on the earth below.
The children weep, the birds are mute,
The flowers-droop and "die; ' ' ;
All sounds are tuned in minor key,
AH sighs, but picture misery;
We wonder, wonder why.
How can we solve the problem we

How can earth be so beautiful,
-, And how so full of woe?

In thee that answer lies;
Tis not for birds, or flowers, or air
To make life either dull or fair

People of Portsmouth Delight in Watch
ing Japanese Newspapermen.
Portsmouth, X. H., Aug. 12. The
strange mingling of summer guest anil
the foreigners who have come with the
peace ruin-join in various rapacities and
the precision of etitictte observed be
tween the lurgp ;ro of Jitpam-s cor-re-pondents
and those who have come
over from Etirop", occa-inn many auiu
ing scenes on the hnud verandas and
spacious parlors nhd lounging-room of
the hotel. Whenever two .Japanese cor
respondents meet, no matter if for the
15th time the same day each will stop
short before the other and execute a j
bow which for mechanical precision and
aecelerity of movement is ideal.
The Japanese with the peace mission
exhibit great cordiality and particular
ly toward the Americans, and their en- '
terprise in placing themselves in posi
tions to observe the news rivals all
competitors. This push wa illustrat-'
ed most favorably on the day of the
landing of the envoys at the navy yard!
Two Japanese correspondents presented
themselves to an official for admission
to the yard. They were told that passes
had been rewtrieted, but 'were advised
that should the whole corps of Japanese
correspondents get together and des
ignate one of their number, it would be
undoubtedly possible to gain admission
for him.
"Yes," ejaculated one of two without
second's hesitation, snd placing hi
hand on his cheat, he executed the ever
present bow. "Me. I will go! Give me"
the pass." ' '

girl of Geo. A. Eyler, Cumlierutnd, MA
He writes: "At the age of 11 months,
our little girl was in declining health,
with serious throat trouble, and two
physicians gave her up. We were al
most in despair, when we resolved to
try Dr. King's Xew Discovery for Con
sumption, Coughs and Colds. The first
bottle gave relief. After taking four
bottles she was cured, and is now in
perfect health." Never fails to relieve
