Washington, Feb. 10.—Naval in- terest here in the fighting continues atthe highest point. One of the highest officers of thenavy comment ing upon the press accounts of the engagements says that the lesson to be drawn is the absolute necessity of maintaining a navy in continuous service, instead of following the old plan of laying up ships in reserve as has been practiced by Russia, Japan like the United States, has for the last two years kept almost every naval ship that would float con- stantly and either cruising or maneuvering so as to re produce the actual conditions of war Another dem Arthar and the perfection ution division Mrs. Eva Leeds Cole, of Baltimorg, Mr. Partello, the United States treasury agent at Berlin, who recently recovered the czar of Russia's lost Stradivarius violin. Miss Partello refers to the re- covery of the violin as follows: “I wonder whether you read anything in the foreign papers about the violin of the czar, which my father was instru- mental in returning. Nearly two years ago the violin, a Stradivarius, was stolen from the museum at St. Peters- burg, and a common Italian one was put in its place. About a year ago the head of the Russian police came from St. Petersburg to see my father and to ask if he had seen the violin, or heard anything of such a violin, in his wander- ings among the dealers. He g¢ full description of it and asked papa if he would not take ay interest in the mat- ter, “At the time papa did not feel inclined to get mixed up in theaflair, Some time after that the Russian ambasador came and, being a friend, he asked papa asa personal favor, to take the matier up, To please him, my father consented, after first securing from the Rus rovernment an appoinument as a spe attorney to act for the imperial govern ment without question, After six months’ effort he discovered the violin in commission as near as possible onstration of the Port Chemu!po affairs was of the Japanese inform as their naval commanders seemer te be at every mor of full {information hie dl in porsessior f of the Russiat position of movements and ¢ the Russian ships.

Good spirits don’t all come from Kentucky. Their main source is the liver—and all the fine spirits ever made in the Blue Grass State could not remedy a bad liver or the hun- dred-and-one ill efieets it produces. Ycuean’t have good spirits anda bad liver at the same time. Your liver must be in fine condition if you would feel buoyant, happy and hope ful, bright of eye, light of step, vigor ous and successful in your pursuits. You can put your liver in fine condi. tion by using Green’s August Flower —the greatest of all medicines for the liver and stomach and a certain cure for dyspepsia or indigestion. It has been a favorite household remedy for over thirty-five years. August Flow- er will make you healthy and active and thus insure you a liberal supply of “good spirits.” Trial size, 24c; regular bottles, 75c.

NEW PHONOGRAPH PERFECTED Thomas A. Edison Invents a Machine It was stated recently that Thomas X.

Another advantage claimed for the record of the new ma- chine is that it can be shaved 175 times, the The machine is op- { MAMMOTH ON ICE.| The Body of a Gigantic Animal Is Found in Russia. Was in Perfect State of Preservation Although Thought to Have Been Buried for Thousands of Years. The Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg has lately received an ex- traordinary acquisition—a complete gi- gantic mammoth, with even its skin in a perfect state of preservation. When the news came that such a mammoth had been found the academy sent out an expedition under Dr. Otto Herz to the spot, a wild place on the bank of the Beresovka river, where a recent landslide had disclosed the gi- gantic animal’s body. Dr. Herz's party had the greatest difficulty in getting the animal out of its ice bed. A wooden house was built and fires lighted to thaw the ice. At last it was all re- moved and got to St. Petersburg from Irkutsk. The hide was weighed 820 pounds. thick, strong hair from inches long. The flesh, according to expert geolo- gists, must have lain in the earth and ice about 20,000 years, It is blood red and has a certain elasticity, Between the flesh and the hide is a coating of fat three inches anda half thick, which must have enabled the mammoth to bear the most intense cold. The stomach, found intact, was filled with various kinds of grasses and the teeth were lined with vegetable matter, predi ig that the animal was feeding when suddenly buried, ADOPTS PET OF LEO XIII. perfect and alone It is covered with eight to 20 A White Dove, an Especial Favorite of Late Pontif, to Remain with Py pe Pius, Pope Pius has adopted the late Leo XIIL.’s pet, a white dove, which the holy father used to feed at a certain hour every morning. The pope allows it in his room, where it perches on his writing desk, and, like Leo, he daily saves some bread crumbs for tts food, This white tore was emerge the last visitors Pope Leo received. On the second morning preceeding his death the winged pet knocked at his bedroom wtndow with its beak, and when admitted flew upon the bed, walking over the pope’s chest and looking into his eyes. With great diffi- culty Leo laid his hand on the dove's head, netting it gently and whispering a farewell, fhe servants of the vatican called the dove “The Holy Ghost,” but Pope Pius, when he heard it, forbadethe designation which he called sacrilegious. “Just to prove that the dove is nothing but an or- dinary pigeon I will feed it hereafter,” he said, “as the great Leo did.” Several Italian artists are at work painting the scene, “Leo on his death bed visited by the white dove.” HORSE CAUGHT IN A TREE. Jamps Over Twenty-Foot Embank- ment nd Hangs in Midair for Almost a Day, A horse belonging to Dr. Pixley, a physician of Missoula, Mont., recently hung in midair 23 hours while a dozer men tried in vain to extricate him from a dangerous position. Dr. Pixley started out fishing. He went up Rattlesnake creek about ten miles from town, neara ford he meant to cross and the team ran away. Horses, wagon, men and all went over a 20-foot embank- ment. By a miracle Dr. Pixley and his friend Lewis, were not hurt. They tumbled head over heels and fell into some soft mud. The wagon was wrecked and the off horse fell into the creek, whence he swam out. The near horse, however, was caught in the fork of a tree, about 14 feet from the water, and there he hung, over the stream. A rude crane was finally rigged up and the animal rescued, none the worse of wear, but ravenously hungry. Wisconsin Couple Keep Their Friends in Ignorance of the Fact for Twelve Years, William Nelson, of Neenah, and Miss Ellen M. Gaffney, of Fond du Lac, Wis., were married secretly on June 11, 1891, and the fact that they have been mar- ried for twelve years was kept secret until the other day, when Mrs. Nelson showed her marriage certificate while visiting friends. The ceremony was performed by Rev. John Faville, of the Congregational church, and the fact that the bride’s people are Catholics had much to do with keeping the mat- ter secret. i Mrs. Nelson says that she ran away to be married and after the ceremony vis- ited in North Dakota. Later she at- tended school in Valparaiso, Ind., and returned to Fond du Lac in 1894. Since that time they lived in Milwaukee and Minnesota. She says that she and her husband are on good terms, but do not live together now. Thought to Be Insane.
