ANOTHER REMARKABLE OASE Which the Doctors Failed te Cure oF Understand. ‘A Medical man as a rule dislikes to acknowledge the value of a proprietary medicine—in fact, professional eti- quette debars him from doing so. Yet there are many eminent physicians, those most advanced in their profes- sions, who give full credit to the great curative properties of Vogeler’s Cura- tive Compound, from the fact that it is manufactured by an old and reliable company, proprietors of St. Jacob’s Oil, from the formula of a brother physi- cian, who to-day stands in the front ranks of the most eminent medical men in London, and on account of its intrin- sic merit, it is largely prescribed by the medical profession; but, in the case which we are about to relate, the at- tending physician called it “rubbish,” but, as it turned out, Mrs, Nettleton tells the doctor that “rubbish or not, it saved her life.” Mrs. Nettleton graphically relates the particulars of her own case, which will doubtless be of interest to many of our lady readers: “I had been an intense sufferer for many years from dyspepsia, liver and kidney troubles, when a little pam- phlet was placed in my hands, and, although at that time I had been bed- ridden for more than six months, I determined, after reading some of the wonderful testimonials therein of cases similar to mine, which had been com- pletely cured by the timely use of Vo- geler’s Curative Compound, to try some, especially as my doctors failed to even benefit me, and I had almost given up all hope of ever being well again. It is most interesting, and, in fact, marvelous to relate, that the very first dose of fifteen drops relieved me. It was not long before I was able to get up and about; three months from taking the first dose I was enjoying better health than I had been for four- teen years. I continued well until a few months back, when I was taken ill again, my troubles being dyspepsia and constipation, I had a doctor attending me for'a month, but continued to grow worse, until I again found myself bed- ridden, when I bethought myself of my old medicine, Vogeler’s Curative Com- pound, which I immediately sent for and took in place of the doctor’s medi- cine; at that time I had not had a movement of the bowels for five days, but Vogeler’s Curative Compound soon put me on my feet again—in fact, com- pletely cured me a second time, but, of course, this attack was not as bad as the first, yet I fully believe I should not have been alive today had it not been for Vogeler’s Curative Compound. If I had only thought to have taken it when my last illness took place, I should not only have been saved much suffering, but a $75 doctor’s bill.” Mrs. Nettleton said: “I have recom- mended Vogeler’s Curative Compound for indigestion and eczema, and in ev- ery case it has proved a cure beyond a doubt. Mr. Swinbank, our chemist, has sent me the names of no end of people who have been cured by Vogel- er’s Curative Compound. By the way, the proprietors have so much confi- dence in this great London physician’s discovery, that they will send a sam- ple free to any person sending name and address and naming this paper.” St. Jacob’s Oil Co, 205 Clay Street, Baltimore, Md. Mrs. Nettleton is a confectioner, in the Brighton Road, where she has been established many years, and is hon- ored and respected by all classes. Her statements as regards Vogeler’s Cura- tive Compound may, therefore, be re- garded as reliable evidence of its great value. The public, however, may look upon this remarkable statement as one of the many which we are constantly receiving from grateful people all over the world, who have been cured of various maladies by the use of this wonderful remedy, which is the result of an eminent physician’s life-long experience. These people are nearly always representative and well-known citizens. PATENTS. List of Patents Issued Last Week to Northwestern Inventors. Elmore D, Cummings, St. Paul, Minn,, litt bridge: John C.

Washington, Jan. 9. — The debate 0 the Nicaraguan canal bill in the hous: yesterday developed sentiment in favo of giving consideration to the recen offer of the Panama company to se! its franchises and property for $40.00¢,- 000, this sentiment taking the form 07 advocating the Morris amendment tc empower the president to select the lat ter route if the canal commission, upor considering the company’s offer, recom mends it and the required concession: can be obtained from Colombia. 0: sixteen members who spoke yesterday nine favored the Morris amendment It was agreed that general debate should close to-day at 2 o'clock, after which the bill will be open to amend- ment under the five-minute rule. The firal vote probably will be taken to- day. In the Senate. During consideration by the senate of private pension legislation some im- portant statements were made by Mr. Gallinger, chairman of the committe: on pensians, in respect to regulations adopted by the committee to govern it in consideration of private pension bills. He announced that none but ab solutely meritorious cases would be presented to the senate for its consid- eration, and that the closest scrutiny would be given by the committee to every bill introduced. He said that no pension exceeding $50 a month woul¢ be recommended by the committee for the widow of a gereral officer, and that pensions for the widows of other offi- cers would be scaled down proportion- ately. In the House. Washington, Jan. 10.—The Hepburn Nicaragua canal bill passed the house late yesterday afternoon by practically a unanimous vote. Only two members out of 310 voted against it. Messrs. Fietcker (Rep., Minn.) and Lassiter (Dem., Va.) were the two voting in the negative. The opposition to committing the government to the Nicaraguan route attempted to secure amendments to lodge with the president the dis- cretionary power to purchase and com- plete the Panama canal, if it could be purckased for $40,000,000. The test came on the first vote when the advocates of an alternative route polled 102 against 170 votes. At each succeeding vote their strength dwindled until Mr. Cannon of Illinois, under whose leader- ship the fight was made, was unable to get the ayes and noes on a motion to recom mit. All other amendments failed and the bill passea exactly as it came from the committee. None of the votes except that on final passage of the bill was a record vote. . The debate which preceded the tak- ing of the final vote was made memor- able by a clash between Mr. Hepburn, the author of the bill, and Mr. Cannon, chairman of the appropriations com- mittee. On several previous occasions they have measured swords over canal legislation. Two years ago a similar bil: was passed by a vote of 224 to The bill as passed yesterday authorizes the president to secure from the States of Costa Rica and Nicaragua in behalf of the United States, control of such a portion of the territory belonging to said states as may be desirable and necessary in which to excavate, con- struct and prospect a canal suitable to the wants of modern navigation and commerce, and appropriate such a sum as may be necessary to secure the con- trol of said territory. Secticn 2 authorizes the president, af- ter securing control of the needed ter- ritory, to direct the secretary of war to construct such canal from the Carib- bean sea, at a point near Greytown, in Nicaragua, by way of Lake Nicaragua, to a point on the Pacific ocean near Brite, and also té construct proper harbors at the termini of said canal and to make necessary provisions for the defense of the canal and harpors. Sections 3 and 4 authorize the presi- dent to make such surveys as may be necessary and to employ such person? in constructing the canal as may to him scem wise, and directs that in the construction of the canal the River San Juan and Lake Nicaragua shall pe used as far as they are available. Section 5 authorizes the president to guarantee to the States of Costa Rica ani Nicaragua the use of the canal and hartors, upon terms to be agreed upon, for all vessels aw ted by said states and by citizens thereof. The last section makes a present ap- propriation of $10,000,000 to carry on this work and authorizes the secretary of war to enter into proper contracts fo> material and work as may be deemed necessary therefor, such work and material to be paid for as appr?- priations may %e made from time to time. The section fixes the aggregate cost at $180,000,000, to be drawn from the treasury on warrants of the pres- ident. In the Senate. The open session of the senate yes- terday was devoted to routine business. After an executive se¢cion the senate at 1:50 adjourned until Monday. In the House. Washington, Jan. 11, — The house spent the day considering the Hopkins bill to create a permanent census bu- reau, While the general sentiment was in favor of a permanent bureau, there was strong opposition to the bill as drawn, on the ground that it was not well matured. There also was an over- whelmirg demand for a provision to place the present employes of the cen- sus bureau under the protection of the civil service law, and the bill was final- ly recommitted with instructions to re- port back a bill containing a plan for a detailed organization of a permanent census bureau, to include also a pro- vision te place the present employes urder the civil service. The fight to reccmmit was made under the leader- ship of Mr. Burkett of Nebraska, the new member of the appropriations com- mittee. A bill was passed unanimous- ly to give Mrs, McKinley the free matil- ing privilege during the remainder of her life. The house then adjourned until Monday. In the Senate. Washington, Jan. 14.—In the senate yesterday Mr. Nelson of Minnesota called up the bill providing for the es- PeblpaEaeae of a department of ¢om- -merce. He explained the necessity,’ which, he said, existed for the passage of such a measure, and was plied with questions by several senators, who said that sufficient time had not been al- lowed for looking into the merits of the measure. Mr. Teller criticised that feature relating to. the transfer of the geological survey, while Mr. Hale said that the bill provided for a department which ultimately would be one of the largest in the government. The pill finally went over, subject to call by Mr. Nelson. The senate was in executive session for an hour and a half. In the House. ‘The house of representatives spent the day in general discussion of the pension appropriation bill, the first of the annual budgets. The debate took a wide range. Mr. Grosvenor of Ohio and Mr. Hepburn of Iowa denounced a report presented to the last G. A. R. encampment criticising the course of themselves and other members of con- gress on the veteran “preference” bill which was defeated at the last session. They explained that their opposition to the bill was due to the incorporation in the bill of a clause which had not been indorsed by the G. A. R., placing veter- ans of the Spanish war in the prefer- ential class. Mr. Rixey of Virginia caused something of a stir on the Dem- ocratic side by advancing a proposition to open the doors of the national sol- diers’ homes to ex-Confederates and to furnish federal aid to state Confederate homes. Mr. Richardson of Alabama was the only Democrat who joined Mr. Rixey in support of it. In the Senate. Washington, Jan. 15. — For the first time this session the Philippine ques- tion was touched on the senate. The interest taken indicates that it will oc- cupy the attention of the upper branch of congress for some time when the tariff bill is reported. The Philippines were the subject of an address by Mr. Hoar of Massachusetts, who spoke on his resolution introduced Monday pro- viding for the appointment of a senate committee to investigate the adminis- tration of those islands. Mr. Hoar spoke at some length regarding the unreliability of statements which have been made from time to time regarding the situation in the Philippines and the causes which led to the outbreak. Mr. Lodge, Mr. Hoar’s colleague, said he regarded the resolution as a re- flection on the Philippines committee, of which he was chairman, and the necessity for the latter would cease were this resolution to be adopted. His committee, he saic, was perfectly able to handle any investigation which might be conducted. Mr, Carmack agreed with him. The discussion was leading rapidly to an opening up of the whole Philippine question when it was agreed that the resolution should go over until to-day. Mr. Mason of Illi- nois made a speech in favor of reci- procity with Cuba and discussed the protective policy generally. In the House. The house continued the debate on the pension appropriation bill yester- day and devoted much time to the proposition advanced by Mr. Rixey of Virginia Monday, to open the. doors of the soldiers’ homes to ex-Confederate veterans. Two notable speeches wer made in support of the proposition, one by Mr. Gardner, a Michigan Repub- lican, and the other by Mr. De Armond, a Missouri Democrat. Mr. De Ar- mond’s eloquence aroused both sides of the house. The Republicans, with the exception of Mr. Gardner, took ro part in the discussion of the Rixey sugges- tion, which met with much opposition on the Democratic side on the ground that it was utterly impracticable. Mr. Lamb of Virginia read a number of, telegrams from prominent ex-Confeé- erates of Richmond protesting against the scheme. TO GREET PRINCE HENRY. “Fighting” Bob Evans May Get the Honor. Washington, Jan. 16.—Cable advices received at the German embassy here indicate that Prince Henry of Germany will arrive off New York about Feb. 18. While Dr. von Holleben, the Ger- man ambassador, has not yet been ad- vised fully as to the details of Prince Henry’s visit to this country, it is the opirion of the embassy officials that the stay of the royal visitors in the United States will not extend over a fortnight. The president is showing a great deaj of interest in the arrangements for Prince Henry’s reception, and he him- sclf called the matter up in the cabinet yesterday. It was too early to map out any definite program for the re- ception, but Secretary Hay and Secre- tary Long were left to arrange the de- tails. It is probable that when the Hohenzollern takes off Prince Henry from the liner she will be escorted from the lower bay down to Sandy Hook by Admiral Dewey’s old flagship, the Olympia, or the San Francisco. Secre- tary Long has taken under considera- tion the propriety of appointing Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans as a special representative for this occasion. He is known personally to Prince Henry, who was in command at the great naval demonstration at Kiel, where Admiral Evans represented the United States navy on the cruiser : i York. HITCHCOCK D LEASES. Declares That the Interests of the Red Men Are Considered Sate. Washington, Jan. 16. — Secretary Hitchcock called the attention of the eabinet to the proposed leasing of the west part of the Standing Rock Indian reservation in the Dakotas and the protest of the Indian Rights associa- tion against such action. He showed that 771 of the male adult Indians of that agency have authorized the leas- ing of the lands. The proposed area for leasing aggregates 1,229,700 acres, on which about fifty Indian families reside. It was pointed out that the majority of the Indians favor leasing their lands; that the Indians are pro- teeted fully by a clause in the lease form; that the ranges will not he over- stocked and that the timber on.the res- ervation will not be denuded by the lesees securing posts for fences. The leased land will be fenced to prevent trespassing and the lessors will -be re- quired to give sufficient bénds. The leasing, it was stated, is fully author- ized by law.
