FLOGGING IN BRITISH NAVY. Still in Practice, as the Following Ac- eount Shows. On Sept. 23 Thomas McGeehan, late second-class leading stoker of her majesty’s ship Doris, was flogged at Simon’s Town for the offense of ma- lingering, says London ‘Truth. The re- port of the circumstances, which ap- peared in the Western Morning News of Oct. 24, is not very lucid, but I gath- er from it that the malingering took place while the man was undergoing a sentence of imprisonment on the Penelope for striking a chief stoker. A “medical survey” was first held on the accused, which presumably resulted in a finding that he had been shamming sickness. On this a board of three ot- ficers sentenced the man to eighteen lashes. “After receiving eleven lashes,” said the report, “the prisoner became insensible, and the medical officer present (the staff surgeon of the Mon- arch) stopped the eruel proceeding, and the wretched man was_ borne bleeding and senseless to his cell.” There does not appear, therefore, to be any: suggestion that he was malinger- ing this time. The Western Morning News, in chronicling this incident, ex- presses the hope that it may lead toa renewed agitation for the abolition of flogging in the navy. I can hardly con- ceive it possible that any one possessed of ordinary human feeling will fail to join us in this hope. As to the de- sirability of corporal punishment, whether in the navy or elsewhere, for certain peculiarly brutal classes of crime, opinion may differ. But the idea of fiogging a man senseless for such a trumpery offense as that of pre- tended sickness to evade prison gisci- pline is revolting in the most elemen- tary feelings of justice and humanity. The reader will note that this poor wretch was sentenced (by three officers commanding her majesty’s ships, and with the approval of the commander- in-chief of the station) to receive eighteen lashes, and what that punish- ment would have meant, had it been carried out, may be judged from the fact that the man had become sense- less from pain and a medical officer had to interfere before two-thirds of the sentence had been executed. Such a result, considered in conjunction with the paltry character of the “crime” for which this murderous pen- alty was imposed, should convince any one of the utter unfitness of many of our naval officers to be intrusted with such powers over their subordinates. Reward for the Honesty and Cheek of 2 Zealous Bellboy. From the New Orleans Times-Demo- crat: A well-known drug drummer, who is paying his regular holiday visit to New Orleans, took the train last Monday evening for a little side trip to Baton Rouge and in the hurry of his departure left a handsome bone- handled umbrella hanging on a hook in the lobby of the hotel. It was a tempting prize, but. probably every kleptomaniac who saw it supposed the owner was seated near at hand, At any rate, it remained undisturbed and was still there yesterday when the “By the way,” he remarked, after he exchanged greet- ings with the clerk, “I’ve managed somehow ,to lose my new bone-handled umbrella. Have any of you seen such a thing lying around ,the office?” A quick-witted bellboy heard the ques- tion and, glacing around, saw the miss- ing article hanging within a foot of his head, Supposing it had been. there for only a few moments, he promptly grasped the ferrule. “Is this the one?” he inquired. “Yes!” exclaimed the traveler, delighted, ‘and I must say I’m surprised nobody has nipped it!” “Aw, they couldn’t do that,” replied the bell boy, “I've been holdin’ on to it fer y’ ever since y’ hung it up.” The drug drummer stopped with his hand half way down his pocket and a whimsical smile overspread his countenance. “Well,” he said slowly, “I was intend- ing to give you half a dellar, but if you've been holding that umbrella for three consecutive days you'te more in need of a tonic. Here is a capsule of quinine and iron.” The gloom which settled down upon the bell bench might have been hewn with an ax, Ostrich Spoiled His Speech. Anybody who heard Senator Allen of Nebraska, deliver his famous fif- teen-hour speech against the bill for the repeal of the Sherman silver bill would hardly believe that anything coud stump him. Yet there is an ex- perience in the senator’s life which shows that, after all, he is like unto other mortals, says the Washington Post. “I was campaigning in my state once,” said the senator, “when I had occasion to speak at a _ fair grounds. The grand stand was full, and the occasion seemed to be full of promise for an orator overflowing as I was with political gospel. Just as 1 had commenced a man brought out an ostrich hitched to a sulky. I don’t know whether you ever saw the trot- ting ostrich in the east, but out west he was a great attraction. Well, as soon as that bird began to run around the track I wasn’t in it. The ostrich monopolized the attention of every man, woman and child. When the bird stopped the people listened to me, but when he threw out his long legs again there was a roar of laughter and applause which drowned every word I uttered. Finally, I gave it up.: I let the trotting ostrich have everything his own way.” Optimistic.

I tried some of the best physicians in the country, but they did me little good. The palms of my hands were covered and would become inflamed ; little white blisters at first would appear, then they would peel off, leaving a red, smooth surface which would burn like fire and itch; well, there is no name for it. On the inside of the upper part of both my limbs great red blotches, not unlike hives, would appear, and as soon as I became warm the burning and itching would begin. Night after night I would lie awake all night and scratch and : aimost go wild. I heard of Cuti- WN CURA REMEDIES, got them and gave them a thorough trial, and after a few applications I noticed the redness and inflammation disappear. Before I had used one box there was not a sign of Eczema left. I can truthfully assert that $2.00 worth of CuTICURA REMEDIES cured me. There has been no sign of its return anywhere upon my body since I wrote you I was cured, nearly four years ago. Hardly a month passes but what I receive a letter or some one calls and wishes to know how I got cured, if I had Eczema bad, and if the cure has been permanent, etc., etc. I always take pleasure in enlightening them the best I can. JOHN D. PORTE, Pittsburg, March 1, 1899. Of Jon D. Porte & Co., Real Estate and Insurance, 428 Fourth Avenue, Pittsburg, Pa. The agonizing itching and burning of the skin, as in eczema, the frightful scaling, as in psoriasis; the loss of hair and crusting of the scalp, as in scalled head; the facial disfigurement, as in pimples and ringworm, the awful suffering of infants and the anxiety of worn-out parents, as in milk crust, tetter, and salt rheum—all demand a remedy of almost superhuman virtues to successfully cope with them. That Cilicura Remedies are.such stands proven beyond all doubt. No statement is made regard- ing them that is not justified by the strongest evidence.
