try Chamberlain's Pain Balm. They
recommenned it so highly that I bought
a bottle. I was toon relieved of all pain
I have since recommended this lini

THE SHIP
SUBSIDY BILL
The Possibility of Its Passage By the
House.
Nhw Yoitk', May 10. A special to the
Herald from Washington says:
Conditions in the house of representa
tives distinctly favor the passage of the
ship subsidy bill through that body dur
ing the next seesion, when it is proposed
by the republican leaders to bring it for
waid. There Is little opposition to it on the
republican side, and the democrats are
badly split up over it. This is indicated
by the attitude of the democratic mi
nority of the committee. Three of the
minority. Fitzgerald of Massachusetts,
De Vries of California, and Spight of
Mississippi will sign a report opposing
the bill altogether. Two others Chanler
of New York and Small of South Carolina
will sign a report, drawn up principally
by Cbanler, approving the general prin
ciple of the bill, but insisting up;n cer
tain amendments.
The most important of the scare a
change in the antwuBt provision .of the
bill, so as to make it the duty of the cir
cuit courts to institute proceedings
against violators of the net, and an act
in the IntereBt of the navy, requiring the
ships benefiting by the act to carry a
larger percentage of Americans in their
crews, and to train more American boys
in steamship navigation. These amend
ments are generally acceptable to the
republicans.

NO INDEPEND
ENCE FOR IRELAND
Lord Salisbury Creates a Sensation by
a Speech.
New YortK, May 10. A special cable
gram to the Scripps-McRae Press Asso
ciation says :
At the annual meeting of the Primrose
League held in London Tuesday after
noon, in honor of the celebrated prime
minister Disraeli, Lord Salisbury, Eng
land's present premier', mado a sensa
tional speech. He referred to Ireland.
He used these words which are causing
a commotion in somo quarters: There
is no hope that we shall give Ireland
practical independence, for we have
learned from the South African war how
a disloyal government, can accumulate
arms. The British government, knows
better than to give this power to a dis
loyal government in Ireland for a mo
ment. The Irish are erased, and are
a. powerless factor in England's politics,
but do not imagine this efacement per
manent. Lord Salisbury referred to England's
foreign relations and said there were
certain elements menacing the empire,
and the perils were slowly accumulating
and they might reach a point which
would require the government's most
earnest efforts to repel. He have no
security, we have no confidence in the
sympathy of other nations, no confidence
in anything except the efficiency of our
own defense. It would be unwise to
dependover much on the navy. The
people at home must put themselves in
condition to defend their homes. Rifle
clubs should be formed in every district
in England. Then we shall have a force
which will make the chance of our
assailants bad. The premier's speech
left the audience stupefied.
Soft-Noae Shell Tierces Armor I'lnte.
New YoitK, May 10. James W. John
son, member of the firm of Isaac G.
Johnson & Co., of Spuyten Duyville,
invento'8 of the Johnson soft-nose shell,
explained last night how the soft steel
cap enables a projectile to pierce armor
plate.
"1 think," said Mr. Johnson, "that
the action of the soft steel cap may be
illustrated by a simple experiment. If
you would try to drive a single nail
through a piece of sheet iron, the nail
would bend. But ii you firBt drive a
nail through a piece oi hardwood it will
penetrate the sheet iron.
"The soft nose, In other words, pre
vents the projectile from glancing off. Its
whole force is concentrated at the point.
In one of the tests made at Indian Head,
we fired a projectile at the armor plate
at an anjle of twenty-one degrees. No
sooner 'had the soft nose touched the
plate than the projectile turned at n
right angle to the plate and penetrated
it. The cap, or soft nose, also acts us a
kind of lubricant to the shell."
