In 1872 there was a great deal of
diarrhoea, dyscntary and cholera in
fantum. It was at this time that
Chamberlain's Colic. Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy was first brought
into use. It proved more successful
than any other remedy or treatment,
and has for thirty-five years main
tained that record. From a small be
ginning its sale and use has extended
to every part of the United States and
to many foreign countries. Nine
druggists out of ten will recommend
it when their opinion is - asked, al
though they have other medicines
that pay them a greater profit. Itl
can always be depended upon, even in
the most severe and dangerous cases.
For sale by Frank Hart and leading
druggists.

Even In "tlio taut phase" our couu
try sustained a certain association
with tho captive of St. Helena, saya a
writer in the Magazine of History.
The English felt that any danger of
rescue would originate upon the west
ern shore of the Atlantic.
Admiral Cockburn occupied the
neighboring Islaud of Ascension, avow
wily to prevent it falling into the hands
of Vnnkeo raiders. The feeling In the
t'nitcd States ngninst England was at
that time quite bitter. Napoleon's
landing at St. Helena followed the bat
tle of. Now Orleans only about seven
mouths, and the downfall of the revo-
lutiouary monarch aroused deep sym
pathy throughout the country.
Hut tho actual grounds for believing
In the existence of a rescue party and
rescue plans In the United States rest
upon the movements of General Lalle
maud aud his associates. This officer's
military record, from the revolutionary
days to Waterloo, had been distin
guished by notable feats of daring.
His dovotlou to the emperor 'was
loyal and persistent; he had followed
the antient refelme Val 'been Illustrated
by publicly stamping the cross of St
Louis under his feet Needless to say,
ha was also under sentence of death by
Louis XVIH.'s court martiaL
But the best known of all this de
Toted band was the famous pirate La
fitte, who had begun life as a Bor
deaux blacksmith, had killed his Jove
rival In a duel, had become a noted
corsair, the terror of the Antilleaa
seas, had been the effective ally of
General Jackson In repulsing the Brit
ish at New Orleans and at the time of
the French settlement of old guards
men In his vicinity was established at
Galveston.
This narrative does not require a de
tailed statement of the affairs of the
400 grenadiers, of the attacks of the
Mexicans on their camp, of their final
removal to New Orleans.
All the circumstances indicate that it
was not the intention of the Lalle-
manas to found an agricultural colony,
but to unite about 1,000 old soldiers
for the deliverance of the great pris
oner.
The location of their camp was most
favorable for the scheme, being near
me sea in an unsettled country where
their movements would not be watched
and, above all, being lu proximity to
Lafltte, who commanded the renulred
ships. Besides these desirable vessels,
one, a model of swiftness, was con
structed at Charleston and equipped
for its purpose iu the most complete
manner.
An Intrepid captain named Boissiere.
who navigated for pleasure, had ac
cepted its command, and this was tho
ship destined to carry away Napoleon
Bonaparte, while Lafltte would land
the guardsmen and engage the atten
tion or ttie English cruisers.

is technically known as "interference"
which has the same effect that two
people speaking rapidly at the same
time have upon a listener there
would be confusion and but little
proper understanding. It was to
provide against this difficulty. that Mr.
Gardner discovered and developed his
present system of sound controL
Mr. Gardner has recourse to two
simple elements in the get-up of his
apparatus. One is a thin strip or
tape of metal which he can taughten
just as ont does the string on an in
struments so as to vary its pitch, and
the other is a small and very delicately
adjusted microphone. Having tuned
his metallic strip to the desired key,
Mr. Gardner places upon this strip
one of the two small carbons of his
microphone. When the right sound
waves reach the receiver then, and
only then, the intimacy of contact be
tween the two carbons is broken, the j
electrical current is interfered with,'
and the index hand swings to one
side far enough to close or "make"
a second and more powerful electri
strong enough to set in motion certain
mechanical functions the order in
which these functions or movements
take place depending upon the num
ber of times and the interval between
the arrival of the proper disturbing
note. Any instrument or any med
ium that will produce the required
'tone will answer to set the necessary
operations in motion, first by disturb
ing the vibrator second by varying the
current flowing through the carbon
pencils of the microphone, and thirdly
by closing the more powerful current
so that the necessary electrical energy
can flow to the various points and
cause the movements of the several
mechanical features.
