Heine, a Milwaukee artist, has sicn d a eontract, awardei to compe to Jeru- salem with ¢ les Peters, anowher local artist, : Vaul Palmer, of Leipric, Germany, to make sketehes for a reproduction of the holy city upon the expositign grounds at St. Louis. They will remain there sev- eral months, then return to St. Louis and expect to take a year's time there in the reproduction of Jeru- salem. Alexander Konta, brother-in-law of Col. Gustav G. Pabst, and son-in-law of Mr. Lemp, the St. Louis brewer, is president and general manager of the company. He closed the contract with Mr, Heine, He is authorized to employ all the artists in the Milwau- kee colony and as many more as may be necessary to complete the work in time for the opening of the expo- sition in 1904. The company has a concession of ten acres of the expo- sition grounds, whieh will be sur- rounded by a faesimile of the wall as it stands about Jerusalem to-day. The company expects to bring bere a company of Turkish cavalry and abont 500 natives of Palestine, renre- senting 20 races and trihes. During vs of the @mmanded to meet him the same ening ot Sandringham were Mr. R Balfour, Mr. Chamberlain and Mr. Broderick, while Count Metternich also among the visitors present. he stay of these three ministers ted until November 10, On that jay Lord Lansdowne was invited to andringham. It would appear that on this day ‘there was concluded an agreement ith Germany equivalent to an of- nsive alliance in South America, f a miracle Caracas was taken, the Venezuelans would wage a guearilla warfare as they did against Spain.” He “Sassed” Mr, Cleveland, Washington Dec. 1..—Senator De- pew says: Adirondacks at one time with Chick Burns for his guide. Mr. Cleveland gun restipdegainst his heart. Chick “President Cleveland went into the sat ona log with the muzzle of his saw where the gun was and fairly yelled: “Hey, you, is that gun load- ed?” “ T guess it is,’’ Mr. Cleveland re- plied humbly. Chick grabbed the gun and found it at fullcock. Then he turned indignantly to Mr. Cleve- land and said: “Suppose that gun had gone off and you had killed your- self, what do you think would have happened to me. Don’t you know I’m a Republican?” It is scarcely a mere coincidence hat on November 11 Lord Lans- jowne returned to London and im- nediately telegraphed to Caracas dersfor a final ultimatum to be ented to Venezuela, and that on phe same day Count Metternich ob- ned a definite pledge from the Naitish foreign minister binding En- glad to stand or fall with Germany and@not to withdraw from the Venezuelan affair without obtaining German consent. Commenting upon these revelations the Daily Mail says: “Opposition to this new alliance is not a mere ebullition of anti-German feeling. It is prompted by the fact that the alliance is in direct contra- diction to British policy and inevita- bly threatens one most vital interest —our good relations with the United States. The kaiser has obtained what he desired. He has drawn En- gland into operations on the Veue- zuelan coast, which must be ineffec- tive and which cannot be carried on for any time without arousing ill ‘feelings against this country in the ed States. ‘From the situation there is no her means of escape than a resort oarbitration. Arbitration is neces- sary and desirable and no secret agreements can prevent the natio from demanding it from its rulers.” One Starved, the Other Dying. New York, Dec. 18.—Jacob Buth- ren, 67 years old, was removed yes- terday to a hospital irom Brooklyn, from his home, where he was found lying beside the dead body of his brother, Michael, 75 years old, who is supposed to have died from starva- tion. The two men kept a little shoemaker’s shop, and did not mix with the ueighbors. For two weeks nothing had heen seen or heard of the brothers and a neighbor notified the police.

Of these 13 no less than five-—-namely, the emperors of Russia and Austria, and the kings of Belgium, Italy and Wurtemburg, have to-day to look for heirs outside of the direct line of succession, because they have only daughters, Besides these, Queen Wilhelmina of Holland is as yet childless, and the grand duke of Hesse is without a son, The grand duke of Luxemburg is a middle-aged = only son) who has daughters, but no male heir, After his death there are absolutely no col- lateral heirs in the male line. Em- peror William, with six sons, is the best monarch in regard to this point of view. The Spanish throne rests on the head of a delicate posthumous youth, and the only son of his father. King Edward VII. has only two sons, one of whom is dead, In Servia and oth- er minor kingdoms this point is fur+ ther illustrated. TO CURB MENDICANTS. Novel Method Similar to the Rogues’ Gallery to Be Adopted in New York City. _Jn_his_annual report of the work of the central council of the Charity Organization society, of New York, President Robert de Forest describes a novel method which has just beca adopted for the purpose of detecting and punishing professional beggars and syndicates of mendicancy, It is proposed to establish a record bu- reau similar to the rogues’ gallery of the police department, where detailed records of beggars are accessible, the object being to deter habitual mendi- cants from plying their trade in New York and other large cities. After admitting that for 20 years she had been sending begging letters ta prominent people, including re- cent ones to high government ofti- cials, Mrs. Annie Mayers has been sentenced to the workhouse for six months. Agents of the Charity Or- ganization claimed to have about 1,000 letters signed by the woman. ARCHDUKE’S SON A WAITER. Austrian Working at Buda-Pesth Gets Large Tips Because of His Noble Blood. Baron Ernest Wallburg, a natural son of the late Archduke Ernest, has been earning his living as a waiter in the Cafe New York at Buda-Pesth since the lawsuit in which it was brought out in evidence that he forged a page in a chureh register to prove that the arehduke had rried_ his mother. He now annoubees that he shall open a cafe of his own. He was as poor as a church mouse wheit he began business as a waiter a year ago, but people felt so flattered at being served by an archduke’s son that he pocketed an extraordinary amount of tips. It now is a question whether or not the authorities will al- low him or not to call his establish- ment Cafe Hapsburg. Hope for the Poet.

Figures of the Treasury Bureau ot} just as senseless as would be kindling a fire on top of Statistics Show That Ten Months’ Business of This Year Doubles That of Last Year. Importations of manufactures of iron and steel are larger this year than at any time during the past decade. The import figures of the treasury bureau of statistics show that the importations of iron and steel manufactures in the ten months ending with October, 1902, are double those of last year, and three times as much as those of 1595, and are larger than in any year since Is91. The total value of iron and steel manufactures imported in the ten months ending with October, 1902, is $31,987,053, gainst $16, 7 in the same months of last year, and $10,531,090 in the corresponding months of L598, vtically every class of articles tres of the year just ended are both in quantity and value, than those of last year, and in many cases the figure than double tho iron, reused from 39,- n ten menths of 1901 to 610 tons in ten months of 1902; * has for exam tons The following table shows the to- tal value of imports of iron and stecl The treatment of Catarrh with antiseptic and == pt astrinzent washes, lotions, salves, medicated tobacco @yF “ 4s- =) and cigarettes or any external or local application, is . the pot to make it boil. True, these give temporary relief, but the cavities and passages of the head and the bronchial tubes soon fill up again with mucus. . Taking cold is the first step towards Catarth, for it checks perspiration, and the poisonous acids and vapors which should pass off through the skin, are ,. thrown back upon the mucous membrane or inner skin, Sa producing inflammation and excessive flow of mucus, . . much of which is absorbed into the blood, and through the circulatiot reaches every part of the system, involving the Stomach, Kidneys and other arts of the body. When the disease assumes the dry form, the breath ated exceedingly foul, blinding headaches are frequent, the eyes red, hearing affected and a constant ringing in the ears. No remedy that does not reach the polluted blood can cure Catarrh. S.S.S. expels from the circulation all offensive matter, and when rich, pure blood is again coursing through the body the mucous membranes become healthy and the skin active, all the disagreeable, painful symptoms disap- pear, and a permanent, thorough cure is effected. S. S. S. being a strictly vegetable blood purifier does not derange the Stomach and digestion, but the appetite and general health rapidly improve under its tonic effects.
