LESE MAJESTE.
In the prosecution of the lese ma
jeste cases ia Germany, the crown
lias gone mad, and tyranny has soared
to heights which would not be toler
ated in England or the United States,
says the Spokesman Review.
The cable dispatches report that
a respectable girl of 1 9, named
Jenny Dyk, has been sentenced at
Breslau to two month's imprisonment
for merely criticising a picture of
the emperor which was exposed in a
store window ; and a girl 1 7 years of
age at Cologne has been sentenced
to six months in jail becauce, in the
presence of another girl, she tore
down a portrait of the emperor from
the walls of her own room."
These astounding acts of persecu
tion rival the apocryphal tyranny of
the Austrian Gessler, who, as the
story runs, set up 4s head-dress in
the public square and compelled the
people to bow before it.
Pride runs beiore a fall, and un
less the mad monarch of Berlin shall
come to his senses, or the strain be
ended by his death, a miyhty fall
awaits him. Ilia notions of kingly
-power are out of tune with the
world's song of progress and freedom.
He will push the German nation too
far. One of these Gne mornings, in
the dawn of (he twentieth century,
his crown will be shaken from his
head, and he will flee for his life.
and shall extend at least four feet above
the roof of the building to which they
are attached, measuring from the point
where each chimney or floe passes
through the roof, and should eucb chim
ney or flue be deemed unsafe to the
building or buildings adjoining by the
fire warden, they shall be carried up to
each height as may be deemed neces
sary, not to exceed four feet above the
extreme height of said building or build
ings adjoining.
And notice is further . hereby given
that all chimneys and fines now in use,
contrary to the above ordinance must
be removed on or before December 1, '98

NA VAL ACTIVITY.
The naval bureaus of England and
France have been taught a lesson b
the conduct of the late war with
Spain. At the first sign of approach
ing trouble there has been a feverish
rush in the navy yards thoroughly to
equip the warships frith every ap
- pliance calculated to cripple or des
troy an enemy. The extraordinary
success of American naval forces has
introduced new systems in Europe.
The nation which fails to keep its
navy up to the highest degree of pro
ficiency will invite attack and dis
aster. Russia and Germany have be
gun activity in their naval depart
ments, and even Turkey is looking
about for new vessels to maintain the
prestige of the sultan on the sea.
It was this knowledge which had
much to do with the continued activ
ity of Secretary Long and his most
competent subordinates in the navy
department of the United States.
The guns of tke squadron off Santi
ago were scarcely cool before the
ships were ordered post haste to dry
docks and repair stations. Two new
battlesbiws and three torpedo boats
have been launched and could be put
in commission in a few months.
Naval stores have been replenished,
the vacancies in crews filled, and the
powder and projectile compartments
replenished.
If the United States is to become
involved in another dispute, the navy
is ready for it.
If you have a Chronic Catarrh, con
sultation is free of charge.
Do you blow mucus from the nose?
Are you troubled with bleeding of the
nose?
Are the nostrils obstructed, making
breathing difficult.
Are you hoarse at time9?
Is the mucus dropping down from the
back of noee into the throat?
Is your nose stopped up?
Is your bearing affected?
Is your throat sore at times?
Do you epit a good deal when rising in
the morning?

throat?
Catarrh is a dangerous disease) which
leads into consumption.
Weak eyes cured ; Cross eyes straight
ened without operation ; Catar
acts removed without a knife ; Glasses
fitted where all others have failed ; Rup
ture and Hernia cured without trusses
or operation, sure cure for kidneyB.

Do not fail to see the German Special
ist. A friendly talk will cost you noth
ing, and is bound to result in a great
deal of good to you. Will return monthly.
