Senator Dolliver has been greatly worried over the difference of rules between the house and senate dis- bursing offices and in order to permit his successor to the house, James I, Conner, to draw his salary he refused to go up against the auditor for State and other departments and settled the amount he drew as con. gressman by a deposit to tae credit of the which his salary was drawn, Then to wind up his association with the house in a monetary way he gave his per sonal check to the clerk of the house for the amount be had drawn for clerk hire from August 23 to November 30, which closed the Ancident in the case of “Jonathan Frentlss Dolliver, Some Postal Matters.

The only sure way to cure every form of plles is to use a remedy like the Pyramid Plle Cure, which is applied dircetly to the parts affected, and its wonderful healing effects are apparent from the first applica- tlon because its medicinal properties are rapidly absorbed right where necded by the delicate tissues and sensitive membranes of the rectum. The cure is natural and easy and almost before the patient is aware of it every trace of piles has left him This {s one reason why the Pyramid Pile Cure has been so uniformly su ssful It is in suppository form, applied at aight direotly to the diseased parts, where It s most needed and not by the round about way of the stomach mor the harsh, barbarous method of surgical operation Direct applications to the seat of disease 18 the only common sense cure and this is fully accomplished by the Pyramid Pile Cure. It the voluntary testimony of thousands s worth anything then ‘no sufferer should delay in giving this splendid remedy at Teast a trial as it costs but G0 cents at any drug store and is guaranteed absolutely safe and free from oplates or cocaine so commonly found in so-called plle cures. Nearly every druggist has some favorite plle cure on which he can make a larger profit than he can on the Pyramid and often-times tries to substitute, but when it 1s romembered that the Pyramid Pile Cure 18 the only remedy for piles that has a na- tional reputation and is sold by every drugglst in the United States and Canada It means something; it means that no rem- edy could do this unless It possessed posi- ive, unmistakable merit The Pyramid Pile Cure has cured thous- WNds of sufferers from the difterent forms of the disease, whetber itching, bleeding or protruding piles, by an | | the with that idea Mrs. Cornelia Cole Fal banks, wife of Senator Fairbanks of Ind ana, was suggeste!

As the weather of any given January docs not con torm strictly to the average conditions the statements cannot be considered forecast January is a month of severe storms in the middle latitudes of the North Atlantic ocean. Along the transatlantic steamship tracks these storms set in with southeast gales, which shift to st and northwest, with freezing temperature. Westward- bound vessels exnerience sudden shifts of wind from the southeast and storms of comparatively short duration and have pre valling strong head (westerly) winds Storms encountered by eastward-bound ves sels are fower in number and of longer duration. The vessels and the storm travel in the same direction. Storms seldom ap pear in the tropleal regions of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans in January. On the north coast of western Cuba, however, and in the gulf of Mexico high and cold north winds are mot uncommon during the winter months. In the lake region and the Atlantic coast districts of the United States the severest January storms come from the middle west and southwest, with northeast, shifting to northwest, gales and snow to the north and rain or light snow to the south of the paths of the storms. In the Pacific coast states the rainy season s at its helght and strong gales occur from the central California coast to Alaska. In the plateau and Rocky Mountain districts and on the great plains prevailing weather is fine and cold This entire region is, however, subject to occasional cold waves of great severity which, with snow and high winds, sweep southward to New Mexico and Texas and sometimes t0 the Rio Grande and northern Mexico, causing great losses of stock on the great ranges Frost is likely to occur in any part of the Unite ates in January and about once in fiy ars sev freezes occur in the guif coast districts and in central and northern Florida WILLIS L.

Morris, auditor for the War depart ment, died this morning at the emergency hospital from the self-inflicted wounds he received at the time of the murder. Mec. Donald, after killing Morris, cut his own throat and shot himself near the heart. It was thought he had a fair chance of re- covery, owing to his remarkable physique, but he was determined to dié and o In- formed the attendants at the hospital. He was carefully guarded and prevented from inflicting any further injurles on himself, but for two days he refused to take nour- ishment as far as possible, and this morn- Itg at 7 o'clock died quietly and without a struggle. The physiclans say death was due more than anything else to McDonald's determination not to live. It was a re- markable exhibition of will power. Notice of the death was sent to his brother, Wil- llam McDonald, the opera singer, who ls now in Denver. At the autopsy held over the body o McDonald the coroner found the fmmediat ause of death to be complete exhaustion, resulting from a gunshot wound in the live and peritonitis, NAVAL RESERVE IS FAVORED Admiral Dewey and Associnte An- an for Force to 0,000 Men.

Opposition In Denmark to the Sale Believed to Have Been Overcome 0 n Large Extent an at the Deal Wil Be Consn COPENHAGEN, Dec. 20 —The United States minister, Mr. Sweneon, hae informed the Danish government that the United States ‘offers 12,000,000 kroner for the Danish Antilles and will not give more. WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.—The negotiations between the government of the United States and the government of Denmark has been in progress, though intermittently, for the last two years. In the earlier stages something was attempted here through the resident minister of Denmark, Constantin Bruen, and one Captain Christmas Dirk- feldt, but while these efforts laid the foundation for what followed in Europe, they could not be regarded as successful, and after nature consideration, the State department decided that Mr. Swenson, the United States minister to Denmark, was the best person to deal with the case in the in terest of this country. Therefore he was given full instructions and some measure of authority. He had nearly succeeded in his object last spring, when, through an internal change in Denmark, the minister of foreign affairs was displaced. The new minister was opposed to the transfer of the islands to the United States and a wave of patriotic fecling swept over the country before which the government was obliged to yield and the negotiations were suspended for the time. Now a change has taken place in the public mind of Denmark and the present minister of forelgn affairs has, it 1s belleved, reluctantly come to the conclusion that, for financial reasons, it 18 scarcely possible to hold on to the islands. Their export trade, normally done in large part with the United Sta has been greatly depressed and though the com- merce might yleld sufficient taxation with unrestrained intercourse with the United States to make the islands self-sustaining, at present they are a drag on Denmark and the Danish government is obliged to make good a considerable deficit on their ac- count The sum named In the Copenhagen dis- patch as offered by Minister Swenson, 12 - 000,000 kroner, as the price to be pald for the islands, is roughly equivalent to about $3,240,000. It is impossible 1o learn whether this is the maximum price to be offered Purely business reasons would account for the official silence on this point. It is gath- ered that Mr. Swenson was allowed consid- rable latitude in dealing with the matter, but it 1 Intimated that he has about reached the end of his abilitles on this point Of course am acceptance of this proposi- tion by the Danish governent would not complete the transaction. The transfer can be accomplished only under a form of treaty which must be accepted by the senate of the United States, and in addition, owing to the necessity of providing the money to be paid for the islands, the house or representatives must have its say, being called upon to make the necessary appropristion. The treaty would undoubtedly consume much time in its consideration, basing the belief on the course assumea by the senate up to this point in passing upon treaties, and as scarcely more than two months re main with the present sesston of congress, speedy actlon would be required on the part of the negotiators at Copenhagen in order that there may be a reasonable chance for action upon the treaty before this adjourn- ment. EVERY SALOON CLOSED UP Chicag Enforcing ing Muke No Exception in e Midnight Clos- Order. CHICAGO, D —All saloons were closed as tight as drums at midnight to- night for the first time since the present mayor, Carter H. Harrison, has held offico. Chicoago was given a taste of the blue laws and the men sitting as grand jurors in the criminal court building, through their deliberations and exposures, were charged with the responsibility for the great change, The orders closing the saloons emanated from Chief of Police Joseph Kipley's of fice and were read to every police officer detailed on night duty at evening roll call, Captains and lieutenants in addressing their subordinates told them the order was “on the square.” The attempt of the officers to impress upon the proprietors of all liquor establish- ments that the law must be obeyed brought laughter and ridicule upon them until it was apparent that the patrolmen were not jok- ing. In tho business section of the city the men who conduct all-night resorts were non- plussed.” They hurried to the city hall, the homes of aldermen and high police officials, asking each and all of them if the order ap- plied to their respective places. No nook or corner in the city is neglected by the order and every saloon was closed tightly.

Gustave Pecaunt. SIOUX CITY, Ta., Dec. gram,)—The life of a hardy French vo; geur, Gustave Pecaut, who left St. Louls with a company of 100 trappers and explor- ers in 1839 and who halted later at the site of Sioux City and became one of its first settlers, came to an end tonight. Pecaut had been failing gradually for years. His carly lifo Is part of the history of the de- velopment of the great northwest territory On the Antelope, one of the first steamers to ply up the Missourl river, Pecaut and his men went to the little Cheycnne, thence further in a rude barge to headquarters. They explored and hunted and trapped in the virgin forests among the Indians of the far northwest until some three years later, when they drifted back down stream. Some few stopped at Sloux City, among them Theophile Brugier and Gustave Pecaut, and theirs were the first three homes erected on the present site of the city. As a landlord of an inn Pecaut has since then accumulated a snug property, which he left to a large family of sons. pecial Tele- Edmund Collier, Actor, NEW YORK, Dec. 20.—Edmund Collier, the actor, is dead here.
