To be Utrgeat and Best of Its Kind

Evei* SbOTnl.

The Indian Exhibit at the World'sFair will be under the direct chargeof expert representatives of the UnitedStates 'Government. 8. M. McGowan,superintendent of the Indian School a-tChllooco, Oklahoma, will be superin-tendent of the exhibit. The govern-ment has appropriated 976,000 for thenialntenance of it. The Louisiana Pur-chase Exposition has allotted an ad-vantageous site of 40 acres for the pur-pose. The tract llea In the westernsection of the grounds, north of thegreat United States, map that IB work-ed out In representative crops- of thestates and adjoining Uncle Sam's mod-el farm. The eastern end of the In-dian reservation is a precipitous bluff,about 20 feet high, and it overlookspractically the entire expositiongrounds.

This Indian exhibit will not only bethe largest and best that was ever as-sembled, but in all probability It willit will be the last representative gath-ering that can be secured. In but fewplaces do the Indians retain their pri-mitive mode of life. Each year the cir-cle narrows. JSven now one can counton the fingers on one hand the Indianchieftains who gained their promi-nence in wars. Further Indian warsare looked on as Impossible and beforeanother exposition ot the magnitudeof the present enterprise can belaunched the primitive red man of theforest will be but a memory.

Geronlmo, the once bloodthirstyApache ' chief who spread terrorthroughout the southwest until he waafinally captured by Gen. Nelson A.Miles, will be one of the-striking fea-tures ot the Indian exhibit

Ot all the tribes that roamed Ameri-ca's forests the Apaches were the mostcruel and treacherous, And of all theApaches Geronlmo was the mostvicious. He fought desperately whenescape was possible by no othermeans. But slaughter from ambushand theBlaylng of the defenceless. wasthe more to his choosing.. Long yearsof captivity have broken his spirit andbe Is docile .because he has mBt btsmaster, When, Oen. Miles, first madeGeronimO'Captlve he was' sent to Flori-da, but in a ishprt while he Was return-ed to the prison at Ft, S11L Qeronlmowill be nominally free at the World'sFair, but practically a prisoner of war.

The Indian Bxhlblt will show theaborigine and -the qlvlliied Indian. Onthe 40-aore tract there will be a vil-lage'of Sioux Indians from the Dako-tas;. They will wear their native i pic-turesque costumes and will live in tee-pees fashioned . from ;.sticks and the'skin's., of wild animals. The warriorswlU be armed-with bows,' arrows andtomahawks.

DEM0CSAT8 WANTPANAKA. CAKALTREATY RATIFIED.

Events in the Par East Demand At-tention—Administration Preparedfor Emergencies—How to liaiseMoney to Pay for Friars* Lands.

<From Our Regular Correspondent.)Washington, D. C, December 26, 1903.

—Regarding1 the Democratic oppositionto the Panama canal treaty, which con-tinues to be the main topic of conver-sation here. Senator Simmons, a Demo-crat from North Carolina, a.iya "If theDemocratic part/ bB instrumental inbringing about the defeat of the treaty,the American people will hold the par-ty responsible therefor nnd might soonforget the conduct ot the President."This Is but one of many expressions ofopinion by Democratic Senators, whichmakes the Hepubllcans certain that thetreaty will be ratified.

In renouncing: their opposition tu thetreaty, the minority Senators have beendescribed as deserting a sinking ship,and politicians are now asking whatwill be the effect of Senator Gorman'sblunder in starting- his party on acourse from which they were turnedby the instruction of their state legis-latures or by the demands of Demo-cratic governors and their party press.The Maryland Senator has led his partyInto a mistake and has injured, If notdestroyed, his chances of the Demo-cratic nomination. At least such is thegeneral opinion here. It Is significantthat Leader Murphy, of Tammany Hall,whose motto Is success and who judgesmen merely by their vote getting" abil-ity, has given out a partial endorse-ment of William Randolph Hearst asthe next candidate, although until re-cently the Tammany leader was veryfriendly with Senator Gorman. Eep-resentative Cooper, of Texas, who de-clared that Gorman is a "slick politi-cian" but that this reputation is notpopular with the people, says thatHearst will get the nomination andthat Gorman will manage the cam-paign. It is thought by many thatSenator Gorman's mistake on the canalquestion will rob him even of his titleof "slick politician," The ne'xt Demo-cratic caucus where the canal questionwill be discussed promises to bo astormy one, and may result in LeaderGorman's practical downfall. SenatorMorgan will speak against tho canaland It is believed that he will occupymuch of the Senate's time but little ofIts attention. If the Democrats Insistupon delivering: campaign speeches Inthe Senate, the Republican majoritywill have the treaty considered In ex-ecutive session.

• • •Events In the Far EaBt are receiving

mush attention from the Administra-tion. The Chinese Commercial treatyhas still to be ratified at Peking by re-ceiving the Imperial Seal, and officersof the State Department believe thatRUBBla la secretly opposing such ratl-ncatlon, in order to prevent the open-ing of the Manchurlan ports of An tuns:and ..Mukden to American trade. TheRussians fear that if America ac-quires such an interest in Manchuria Itwill oppose its permanent occupationby Russia, or, perhaps get involved inthe Russian-Japanese dispute. Ameri-can Minister Conger has received In-structions to urge a. prompt ratificationof the treaty and our government is ofcourse determined to prevent Russiafrom successfully opposing It. "War be-tween Russia and Japan Is regarded ascertain and Rear Admiral Evans hasbeen ordered to proceed at once fromHonolulu to Chinese waters with theAsiatic fleet which Is under his com-mand "While It Is thought that -hos-tilities may be postponed for some timetho Administration intends to have afleet on the scene in order to protectAmerican interests. .

• • *; Chances of a war with Columbia are

much discussed here and It Is thoughtqufte probable that Colombia's deter-mination to attack Panama will In-volve her In a conflict with the UnitedStates. General Reyes, who Is still inWashington, recognizes the danger of•this and continues to cable his coun-trymen to be patient, and not to for-get that war with Panama means warwith the only world power of theWestern hemisphere. He has handedSecretary Hay a note of protest againstthe '.United States' recognition of Pa-nama, and is awaiting* the reply be-fore returning" to Colombia to takecommand of the array and charge ofthe government. No doubt the GeneralWl» try to fight If his countrymen in-sist, but seeing: the uselessness of sucha struggle, he intends to do his utmostto prevent It.

To answer the criticism of the Demo-crats that the ratification of the canaltreaty by the Panama Junta was notequivalent to its acceptance by repre-sentative men on the Isthmus, MinisterBunau-Varilla brought to State De-partment official notice that tho act ofthe .Junta haa been formally approvedby the municipal councils of the twelveprincipal provinces of the republic

Admiral John G. Walker haa return-ed from the Isthmus and handed a sat-isfactory report to the President. Hesays that the health of tho marinea onthe Isthmus is good, that there are nowplenty of them to protect Panama, thattheir presence Is desired by tho inhab-itants and that It is not advisable tosend regular -troops as this actionmight cause some uneasiness.

After reading what Bl

Tliia lady rewrites history In a daslinff way, aa regards both Kentucky unMissouri. She Bays regarding the- lutter Btate: "The govurnor nnd otlistate ofllciolR nnd the iH'&isl.'itureMfssauri—all having linen duly electand their terms of office not Iiavinas yet expired—had been driven fruithe capital. Jefferson City, by Federabayonets, and had reassembled at Neosho. At tills place in September, 1 "tlie Legislature passed an orcllnnneo osecession, which was Rlfrned l>y t)ipresiding offlcors of both linusos, niteBted by the clerks'of both pud uppravod by tho governor, Cluiborne 1Jackson.

One or two points of detail this ltitlforg-ets to mention. The IiCf?iHlntur<Which met In Nensho In October (noin September), 1801, lacked a nuoruiln each branch. I t had, by Its own frtact, throe-qunrters of a yenr onrllesurrendered Its function of. lepislatlnon the question of secession to a corvention to be elected liy the peoplIn the vote on February 18.

Hamilton R. Gamblwas made provisional governor. Th<convention and the executive official:whom It set up governed the state fothe time, and their authority was recognized by President Lincoln onCongress and sanctioned by tho courtJackson had as little lepal right tsummon that Legislature in Neonhohe would have hnd tb convoke PI irIX'a college of cnrdlnnls. and his rum]Legislature was as dead and dlseredlted when it met, nnd for three montlfcofore it met, an was tho star chambeiof Charles I.

First—To be true and to bo genuine.No education is worth anything that.does not Include this. A man wouldbetter not know how-to read and betrua and .genuine in action rather thanbe learned In all sciences and' in alllanguors and be at the anmo timefalse In heart' and counterfeit In life.

Second—To be pure in thought, lan-guage and life—pure in mind and body.

Third;—To bo''.unselfish; .to .care forthe feelings.and comforts of others; tobe</generous, noblo and • mnnly. Thiswill include, a genuine, reverence for tboaged and for things sacred.

Fourth.—To bo self reliant and self^helpful even from childhood; to be ln-duatrlouB alwayB and Bclf supporting,at-the earliest possible ago. Teachthem that all honest work ls honorable;that on Idle life of dependence on oth-ers is disgraceful.

"Seventh—Because the water rightscontrolled by tlie company should beforever socurcd to the citizens of theState for their own use and profit."

The report ot the committee was ap-proved by the Board of Trade afterprolonged discussion, only one votebeing- cast in the negative, the dis-senter being Roderick Bylnffton, whocrave it as his opinion that the LehlghValley Railroad Co. was the worstonemy the State had ever had, having"wreckuil the Morris Canal BH a water-way, selling its water and then endcavorlng to debauch the Leg-lslaturothat It could have laws passed permitting1 tho abandonment of tho canal.-

Mayor Edward Kenny, of East New-ark, and Joseph Coult took the grounthat the canal ought to be abandoned,hut that the State had no right tassume title to the reversionary rightsthat If the right of way was to bo usefor transportation purposes It woulhave to be recondemned.

It Iwu't Quito so Bnd.The taxpayers of. Morris county, w!i

have paid, without being; able to dlgcstheir tax bills, might llnd some relieby visiting1 the Mt. Freedom road. Tinfive miles of road there, now beinbuilt, will cost in the neighborhood o:$150,000, and hu.8 the distinction of being: the most expensive piece of roaIn the United States. It is going tbe, when completed, of some generapublic convenience, nnd ndd greatly Uthe luxury of automobllinar.—Hacketttown Gazstts.

- Editor Hlttenbouse, of. tbe ffackettstoumGazette, places the coat of tbe Mt. Freedoirosd, lu thh county, at f 150 000, which, if iwore true, would reflect seriously on theMorris County Board of Chosen Frf oboldern,But our esteemed contemporary is just atnuiin f>ven $100,000 out of the way. Of course,#50,000 fora Btretch of road only about aevtrailed long jg a pretty big price to pay foimad aiaklDtf, but for thlfl tbe present boarU not responsible, nor, for tbat matter, ifmy previous board. The original ppeclfica-ions for tbe Mt. Freedom road, adopted four

reira ago, tf we mistake not, didn't call foiiny such gradei as were afterwards settletipou by Btate.Road Commissioner Bodd,who, ID matters relating to the building ofoado under tbe State Aid Road Aob, em-

-iad.es la bis person tbe court of last resortFor instance, In places where it was origin-illy planned to nmke an eight-foot cut, Com-inUslpner Budd decreed a twenty-foot cut,m the principle, doubtless, tbat aoytuli*ortb doiog - Is worth doing well. Now,inasmuch as on tba Mt. Freedom road rock*BB encountered under a tbln layer of eartb,t twenty-foot cut c:>st a heap eight more'.ban an eight-foot cut, at uptrardn of a dol-lar the yard. And in the end It will be foundworth while, ..evm though tha present da:taxpayer may wince at the cost. Still the3O<t, though great, will be only about one-third of the sum at which Editor Kitten-nouse places it.

Unwieldy and Bxpenslve.In the matter of the investigation o

the past doings of Huntcrdon's Free'holders, perhaps it may be remarkethat It is top late to cry over the spllmilk 'of past extravagances or bluntiers, and it must bo apparent that It itnot wise to baBe criticism upon asser-tions of Interested or prejudiced per-sons.

The hope is for cheaper and betterresults with tlie advent of the newfreeholder system. We have faith 1It, and in the intelligence) and honestof the three men who have been chosen ns the Board, r, We shall be greatlsurprised and disappointed If with!the ensiling three years the public eaiIs scandalized by; reports of a hadtransactions. , ' .

> Boaml of Health Decides to B a v elc Amended Forthwith*

Notwithstanding the fact that in alumber of Instances resident* of Doverlave been fined for the alleged viola-Ion of a certain clause In the Health

Code. Town Attorney Elllcoit, a t theragoiair monthly meeting of the Boardof Health on Monday night, gave It ashis opinion that the clause In Questiondid not cover tbe particular offensewhich It was supposed to cover, name-ly, the burying of the contents of acesspool or privy vault on one's ownl o t Two prominent residents of Do-ver recently did that very thing, forreasons sufficient to themselves, doubt-leas, and ever since tbe board' has hadIt in mind to give them a taste ol theJ»w, as the Board conceived it to be.

Naturally, Mr.' mUeott's opinion wasi the members who were so set on

risltlng punishment on tbe allegedoffenders somewhat in the nature of acold douohe, and one nronrber of theboard made the suggestion that, i t wasup to the board to draw checks andreimburse those who have been'mulct-ed for tha Infraction of what now

irns but to Be an invalid clause, sofar as the offense for which they hadbeen fined was ooncerned. This sug-gestion was, of course, taken In a Pick-wickian sense. Moreover It could -notvery well i a v e been carried out as thejoard Is without funds. . ' '

The ordinance in question was drawnt former Town- Attorney Neighbour,

,nd he, too, .was quoted, In the courseit the dlscussionv n saying that tbeslause In question was not intended:o cover the offense for which i t has

JUMPING UPIi a great deal balder than jumpingdown. And yet people w!io Lavebeen for years running down in healthexpect to jump back at ouce. It takesyeara generally to make a mail a con-

firmed dyspeptic, tjiid hecannot expect to be curedin a few tluya.

There is no guickermeaus of mire for oyspep-

Dia or other Toruis of stomachtrouble than by the use of Dr.Pierce's Golden Medical Dis-covery, It curesdiseases of the Jj

stomach and other ijorgans of digestion

and nutrition and buildsup the body with soundflesh ajid solid muscle.

"I waB taken sick tvroyeariago," miles Rev. \v. II. Fattci-•on.of While Cloud, Ain.,« wltilwhat tbe doctors thought waagastric trouble, indigestion oroervoui dyspepnia, nlso cou-stipation aud Inactive liver.I was In a dreadful condition.Tried several different doctor*with but little result. I hndgotten 80 feeble that I was al-most past traveling about; hadgot down to 114 pounds. Iwent and bought six bottles of'Golden Medical Discovery,'and got the Telliis' andbegan following direc-tions. When I had takenabout 6ve bottles I feltvery much belter and waagreatly Improved, andweighed one hundred andtfiirtv-eigiil poumis. I willsay that Dr. Pfcrcc'smedicines are a God-send to poor Bufferinghumanity, and I adviseauv nnd all chronicsufferers to give Uieiua fair trial nnd theywill be satisfied."

Accept no substi-tute for "Golden Medical Discovery."There is nothing "just as good" fordiseases of tbe stomach.

How many women of to-day couldundertake wifehood -under such condi-tions? Few indeed. Not because theinodeni American woman lacks cour-age, but because she lacks as a rule thephysical health which Is the iudispenao-ble qualification for a lljj? such as waslived by the women of the past

Thst is why a good woman may be abad wife. Virtue and goodness are ex-ceUcnt things in women, but to guide ahouse and bear children demands aboveall wand physical health,

WOMBN CONVICTS.

To • great number of women thehouse they live' in Is almost on a parwith a prison. It is prjson-Uke in tliomonotonous regularity of ..dally duties;prlspn-lika in thejibsence of all pleasurein what is done or joy in the doing.And the reason'is to be found <inwomanly ill-health. Few women realizehow intimately the general health is re-lated to the health ,of the delicatewomanly organs. A woman may sufferwith heart "trouble," disorders of kid-.neys, liver or stomach, or with nervousprostration ss a result of a' diseased con-dition of the womanly organism. Many "such women "doctor" /or years forvarious diseases and wonder wby theydon't get better. They can't get betteruntil the womanly organism is entirelyCureiofiUdlSMMS.- This is not theory. It is a statement

of simple facts, founded upon the testi-mony of hundreds of thousands ofwomen Who have been cured of woman-ly diseases by* the use of Dr. Place'sFavorite Prescription. They had beennst "dragging around 1 for years, withthrobbing heads and aching backs, nerv-oos, ^dyspeptic, miserable. The once(rash colored^ cheeks' had grown sallow,tile eyes wen dull, the "body had lostIt* plumpness. They bad in numerousIswncss tried'many doctors and medi-"

dnes, exhausting tile local medical skillat their disposal. At last some friendor neighbor who haB personally provedthe curative power of "Favorite Pre-scription" recommends the use of thismedicine and tiat in almost every casemeans another sick woman made welland strong.

ASTOHISHED tBB DOCTOR."When I first wrote to you I did not

think I could live till I could get ananswer to my letter," says Mrs. Isaac S.Harris, of GayviUe, Yaokton Co., S. Dak."At thai, time I dio not tell you every-thing. When I wrote you I had justgot home from the Hospital at Minne-apolis, Minn." Hsd been there onemonth. Could not see.as I was bene-fited _any there, so I tame home,thinking there was no help for me,aud every one here said that I couldnot live. I would have sinking spellsevery day. Sometimes they would

r or more and I wouldbe so weak it seemedalmost impossible for meto breathe at all. Hadnight-sweats for threemouths, and my clotheswould be just as wet ascould be. Had uterinetrouble also till I thoughtI would lube my mind;also had heart trouble sobadly*.! did not knowwhat to do. I Buffered ev-erything one could thinkof. We pair! out so muchmoney for doctoring, andthere was nothing (hat i3idme any good till I con-sented to try Dr. Pierce'sFavorite Prescription and'Golden Medical Discov-ery.' I did not have anyfaith in these medicinesat all, but I am only tooglad to say that' in threedays after taking the med-icine I could see a changefor the better. In a weekI could sit up and thenI commenced the treat-ment'for uterine trouble.In three weeks I was sole

to be around the house some. I havetaken nearly twelve bottles of the tnedkdue aud still continue to take-it Iam getting better right along, can rideor walk any place. I can never praiseyour medicine enough, . . .

"The doctor here says that he neverwould nave believed that your medicinecould have done Co much for any one ifhe had not seen nfaat it his done forme. He also told me to keep on takingit, for he could not help me. I thankyou a thousand times for your kindadvice and for-your mediilne.''

Be careful of the children'* eors. Tilehearing apparatus Is a piece of verydelicate mci-'linnism. no more sultud torough treatment than Is the.ball of theeye. It can be eusily Injured by theIntroduction of a foreign body or by ablow from the outside. Small childrensometimes* push things Into their earlby wuy of experiment .In this casn thechild's guardians should keep perfect-,ly cool and send for a physician . atonce. The child must riot be sUakenand punished until the object is rcmoT-ed, and above all the nurse orTootbermust not grope for It with balrpln ortweezers, for that is the way to push;H farther In or to wound or eycii rup-ture the delicate drum membrane, anaccident which may be followed.bycomplete deafness nnd even deathshould d scrloiiB inflammation ensuo.

There Is perhaps one exception to thisrule of lenring a foreign body alone un-til the doctor comes Occasionally in-sects fly into the ear and cause greatanguish by buzzing and flutteringabout, 'lliey can be speedily disposedof by dropping'In a little sweet oil or

' lukewarm salt water.As to injury from the outside, cbll

It may induce par-tial and temporary deafness, completedeafness and even death:

ConsumptionSalt pork is a famous old*

fashioned rerntdy for con*sumption. "Eat plenty o£pork," was the advice to' tbeconsumptive 50 and 100years ago: '

Salt pork is good if a martcan stoniach it. The idea1

behind it is that fat is thefood the consumptive needJmost

Scott'sEmulsionisthemod-ern method of feeding fat tothe consumptive. Pork js too|rough for sensitive stomachs.Scott's Emulsion is the mostrefined of fats, especiallyprepared for easy digestion.

Feeding him fat-in thisway, which is often the onlyway, is half the battle, but$cott's Emulsion does morethan that. "There is some-thing about the combinationof cod liver oil and hypophos-phites in Scott's Emulsionttiat puts new life into theweak parts and has a specialaction on the diseased lungs.
