medicine is so much needed as in tha
Spring.

by pimples and other eruptions on the

The Tallest Cathedral.
The most remarkable and striking
feature of the new Liverpool Cathedral
will be the height of the vaulting of
the nave and choir measured in the
barrel vaulting, one hundred and six
teen feet, and in the nigh transepts,
one hundred and forty feet which
cannot fail to produce a very magnifi
cent effect No cathedral in the coun
try approaches its height - The nearest
is Westminster, the nave of which
has a height of one hundred and two
feet, while York measures ninety-nine
feet; Salisbury eighty-four, and Lin
coln eighty-two. Chester reached only
seventy-eight. The "whispering gal
lery" f St Paul's Cathedral is one
hundred .feet from the floor.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications as they cannot reach the
dl leased portion of the ear. There la only one
way to oure deainess, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. . leafness Is caused by an In
flamed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed. Deafness is
tha result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing; will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition of
thermucoui surfaces.

Uttle Island's Complication with the
United States.
The action of the insurgents of San
to Domingo in deliberately firing on
the American flag, killing B, C Johns
ton, a naval engineer, wounding
Charles Doctor, a bugler, and other
wise committing warlike acts against
the government of the United States
has succeeded in raising an interesting
I international complication. It will be
remembered by those who have kept
track of the affair that-Johnston was
shot while on a launch on its way
from the shore to the United States-
auxiliary cruiser Yankee. The small
American nag in the stern of the boat
was riddled. Doctor was wounded in
a subsequent engagement of the Co
lumbia with some of the insurgent
forces. About a week after the killing
. of Johnston, it will also be recalled, a
merchant steamer named the New

York discharged her cargo at the port
of Santa Domingo under what was
thought to be an agreement of the con
tending forces. She was fired on by
the Insurgents, however, -and the Unit
ed States cruiser Newark retaliated by
shelling the town of Pajarlto, in which
the rebels were encamped, afterward
landing a force of marines and driving
out the insurgent troops. All of this
naturally led to further complications.
Though the rebel forces have been
very thoroughly beaten in subsequent
engagements with the troops of Presi
dent Morales, the Island is yet in a
very unsettled condition, and there is
a considerable party, in which the com
mercial element predominates, that is
favorable to annexation to the United
GENERAL VIEW OF THE
States, or at least to a protectorate by
the American government The an
nexation idea was one of the cherished
dreams of President Grant Indeed, it
even antedates Grant for Secretary
Seward about the time of the Alaska
purchase elaborated a plan looking to
American -possession of Santo Domin
go. It is probable that the idea did not
originate in the United States, how
ever, but in the island itself, for the
merchant classes there have always
favored an American protectorate.
It was doubtless due to this influ
ence that President Baez of the Do
minican Republic sent a formal propo
sition to President Grant looking to
the annexation of Santo Domingo to
the United States. It was in July,
1869, that Grant received the proposal,
and he lost no time in sending a spe-
: cial commissioner to the island to look
into conditions and report After some
further negotiations the treaty of an
! nexation was prepared, the question
was submitted to the voters of Santo
Domingo, who gave it almost unani
mous approval at a special election
held for the purpose, and Grant sub
I mltted the treaty to the United States
: Senate for ratification. Charles Sum-
ner. chairman of the foreign affairs
committee, bitterly opposed the ratifi
cation of the treaty, and succeeded In
securing sufficient support to defeat
the treaty. The annexation talk died
down and has not been renewed until
recent years, although the commercial
party in the island still continued to
favor the plan.
Meanwhile affairs in the little repub
lic were in a troubled condition. There
were frequent uprisings, and presi
dents came in rapid succession until in
1886 General Ulysses - Heureux was
elected, and the constitution was so al
tered that he could succeed himself.
This he did with somewhat monoton
ous regularity, so contriving matters
that it was impossible to oust him.
Heureux was a young man when he
went into office and an ambitious one.
He became practical dictator of the
country, banishing or executing those
who opposed him. In this manner he
continued, in power until 1899, when
he was assassinated.
Shortly after the violent close of
the Heureux regime came the revolu-
tlon that resulted in making General
Jiminez president , . In 1902 occurred
another revolution, which was success
ful in forcing Jiminez to resign, on
which the vice president Vasquez.
was installed, to be succeeded in 1903
by General Morales, against whom the
present revolution is directed. In San
to Domingo the president is ejected for
four years, unless sooner "revoluted"
out of office.
The people are. of mixed Spanish,
negro and Indian blood. The govern
ment is modeled on that of the Ameri
can republic and so far as form is con
cerned is said to be quite ideal.
Santo Domingo is one of the most
beautiful of the West India islands.
It lies between Cuba and Porto Rico.
In Samana Bay it possesses one of the
finest natural harbors in the world. It
was this port which President Grant
was especially anxious to secure as a
coaling station. - The oldest settlement
made in the new world was on this
island, Columbus himself having
founded it Here the great discoverer"
was buried and here for a number of
years was the capital of the Spanish
possessions to the new world.
At the end of the eighteenth century
Spain ceded the eastern half of the
island to France, which held the west
ern half. Soon after the entire coun
try under Toussalnt L'Ouverture gain
ed its independence. In 1844 came the
rebellion of the eastern portion of the
island, resulting in the formation of
the present Dominican Republic
FAMOUS BLAZES IN LONDON.
British Houses of Parliament Were
Burned on Oct. 16, 1834.
Oct 16 Is a day to be associated with
fire in the minds of Londoners, for on
that date, in 1834, the houses of parlia
ment were burned down, and on the
same day, in 1733, Berkeley house was
destroyed by fire, says the London
Chronicle. Berkeley house stood on
the site of the present Devonshire
house and Evelyn does not seem to
have thought much of it "The stair
case is of cedar," he writes. "The fur
niture Is princely; the kitchen and sta
bles are ill-placed and the corridors
worse. The porticos are in
imitation of a house described by Pal
ladio, but it happens to be the worst
in his books." The fire was caused,
according to the Daily Journal of the
day after, "by the workmen leaving a

set fire to the house." This was before
the days of policemen, for "the Earl of
Albemarle attended in person, with a
party of guards, to secure what goods
were saved from being plundered by
the mob; and all persons unknown
were searched as they went out"
The, burning of the houses of parlia
ment over sixty-nine years ago was
caused by official stupidity. For cen
turies the accounts of the' exchequer
had been kept by means of the anti
quated tally stick, and though in the
reign of George III. a proposition was
made to use pen, ink and paper, red
tapeism scouted the Idea, and the use
of tally sticks was continued down to
the year 1828. In 1834 the large stock
was ordered to be destroyed, and In
stead of distributing them to the poor
of the Tieighborhood, some wiseacre
decided that they should be burned In
the stove of the House of Lords. The
stove became overheated, set fire to the
paneling, the paneling set fire to the
House of Lords and the House of
Lords set fire to the House of Com
mons. The cost to the nation was
about 2.000,000.
