And this mutual admiration has gone so far that the two are now having their whiskers | trimmed the same way, which was the cause of this story being tcld. It was several days ago that the general was in Weeping Water, and in talking with a number of friends, including Dr. Hun- | #ate, the conversation turned to the doc- | The suit alleges that the Chippewas had | tor’s profession.

He motioned to me and made signs that he wanted his tongue cut off. I took out a pair of scissors, opened his mouth and per- formed the operation. It was ngt much to do, because the member was barely hanging on by a torn plece of flesh.” It was on the point of the tongue of one member of the party to ask the general where he got the scissors, when Dr. Hun- gate broke in and grabbed the hand of the gene: He sald: at that time and our family scattered whed the battle began. I was hunting for some member of it when I saw you cut off that tongue. From that time I determined to become a doctor.". Though he and General Culver had been Intimate for years they never gknew that they had met in Kentucky. The operation Was a success, both claim, but whether the patient dled neither knows, And this brought out another story from the general that happened, it is alleged, at the same place, In which Dr. McCullough now of Chicago, a Newfoundland dog, a can- teen' and a confederate captain were the stars. The dog was the pride of the Four- teenth Jowa battery, and all one day this battery had been in a fight trying to secure possession of a spring of water guarded by the confederates. This was the only water In those parts, and the entire battery Wag nearly dead with thirst. The dog had been trained by the various men in the battery to take a canteen, go to a creek or watering ‘place and fill it. As he had been faithful while with the men, as a last resort Dr. McCullough tied his canteen to his dog's neck ‘and started him out. Presently the dog came back with the can- teen fllled with muddy water. Canteens were then tied all over him and he was agaln sent out. He was gone much longer this time, but when he aid finally return every canteen was filled with good clear water. As to how he got it was told by the confederate captaln during ome of these numerous breathing spells. He sald he saw the dog with the Yankee canteen tied to him go to the little stream below the spring which he was gurading, flll it and then run away. Presently he saw him come back with a number of the canteens tied to him. He called the dog he sald, but the latter refused to come. Instead he strolled around near the banks of the little stream ovidently hunting cléar water. The captain then, so.he sald, ordered his guards to lay down thelr guns. This they did and then all began to coax the dog. After a long time he cautiously came to the spring and the men filled the canteens. Before leaving the captain sald the dog turned and licked his hand in gratitude, —— ‘OCEAN MONSTERS TO SPRINT Steamships St. Py Start To 1 and Lueania May n Race with Matls, NEW YORK, Nov. B.—Although the of- ficers of the Cunard steamship company make denials, it fs the bellef in shipping circles that the steamships St. Paul and Lucania will start on a race with the mails across to England today. Bince the Ameri- can liner two weeks ago changed its sallfng day from Wednesday to Saturday, the vessels of the two lines have succeeded in getting the malls to Dendon at about the same time. The Bt. Paul will.have an hour's start of its rival, but this advantage {s overcome because of the shorter route traveled by the Cunarder to Liverpool. The St. Paul has to make Southampton before delivering the mail. Much interest {s manifested In the race In London.

John W. Yerkes, commissioner of internal revenue, In his annual report shows that the total receipts of his bureau for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1901, were $30,740,- 90, at a cost of collection of 2.7 per cent. The receipts for the last fiscal year are about $4,000,000 less than for 1902 This de- crease, says the commissioner, is not due to a decrease in business, but entirely to reduction of ‘nternal ‘evenue taxes. The receipts for the first (hree months of the current fiscal year show a gratifying in- crease, and it is estimated that the tecaipts for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1904, will aggregate $40,000,000, Varfous refunds have been made under remedial ctatutes, such as taxes pald on contingent beneficlal interests, on export bills of lading, and tax on dividends and interests collected under the act of 1862, payments of rebates on all original or un- broken factory packages of smoking to- bacco, snuft and cigars held by manufac- turers-br dealers at the time the decrease in the taxation of such articles became effective November 19, 1003. Under the act of April 12, 102, making provision for the payment of eimilar re- bate claims on tobacco and snuft held by manufacturers or dealer, July 1, 1001, on which date the act reducing the rate of tax from 9.6 to 6 cents per pound became effective, $6,045,638 has been pald In rebate. During the fiscal year there were re- celved 233 clalms for the refunding of taxes assessed and the redemption of in- ternal revenue stamps, other than unused documentary and proprietary stamps, amounting to $2560,8%. During the fiscal year 1,19 claims, amounting to $905,955, were allowed and 92 claims, amounting to $746,- 867, were rejected or returned for emend- ment. There have been so far filed 3,365 claims aggregating $627,823 for rebute of taxes pald. Of this class of claims allowances of 392,972 were made. During the last flscal year matters connected with the tax on oleomargarine and. process butter occupled a large part of the time of officlals In the internal revenue department. President Would Favor Philippines, For some time the president has been dis- cussing informally with members of con- gress the proposition to reduce the duties on Philippine products coming into this country to 5 per cent of the Dingley law rates. Considerable opposition has de- veloped to the suggestion and what the result of the endeavor to secure a reduc- tion of the dutfes will be cannot now be told. The opposition arises principally from congressmen representing sugar+and to- bacco states. They maintain that if only 5) per cent of the Dingley rates are levied on sugar and tobacco the industries repre- sented by those products in this country will be impaired serfously. They have in- dicated to the president that they will make a hard fight agalnst the proposed reduction. It is understood that the presi. dent may discuss the subject in his annual message to congress, but his position re- garding it has not been disclosed.

Interesti Scotch Night, Friday night in Lowe Avenue Presby- terlan church an audience which crowded the alsles and every part of the church assembled to hear Mr. Willam Kennedy (the Bennett company's versatilo advertis- ing manager) give a lecture, with stereop- ticon fllustrations and songs, entitied “Through Scotland with Scott. The audience was a credit and a com- pliment to the platform abilities of .the | entertainer, and the magnetic attractive- ness of the subject which he espoused. | Wil J. Stevens handled the lantern, a | powerful dissolving outfit, worked at high | pressure, and producing a perfect picture, | with his accustomed mastery. The slidcs were of a quality and varfety that gav evidence of painstaking research on th | part of the lecturer, and the musical inter- {ludes of the program were well sustained by Mrs. A. L. Sheets, Dr. Jones, and Mr. Kennedy himself. | At the outset the speaker took complete {hold of his audlence, and for two hours | apparent, effort on his part. He seemed to accomplish this solely by his rare power of eloguent narration and description. Mr. | Kennedy claimed a good deal for Scotland and the Scot, and belng an authority his claims are doubtless undeniable; the audi- ence, at least, thoroughly enjoyed his §00d-humored thrusts at the prevalent misconceptions regarding the true relation- ship subsisting between Scotland and other integral parts of King Edward's domin- fons. There was a fascination In all this, and the speaker made frequent use of historical events to prove his case. In graphic language, and with thrilling periods that at times reached the heights of real eloguence, enhanced by the magnifi- cent photographs thrown on the screen, he showed how Walter Scott threw the charm of his literary gift over a country “which is 80 very small that a man must be care- ful not to leave his house after dark lest he drop into the sea.” All this was as a prelude to the delights of ‘Marmion,” “Lord of the lsles,” and “The Lady of the Lake," etc. One of the murvels of the ef- fort was the memorized resources of the speaker. He seemed to roll off page after page. of these poems, and was only checked N\ in the flow of delightful romance by the movement of the clock. His recital of the combat dcene from “The Lady of the Lake" was rendered with a declamation and Interpretation worthy of a Howard. During the evening James C. Lindsay, sec- retary of Clan Gordon ‘No. 63, Order of Scottish ,Clans, appeared upon the plat- form in up-to-date Highland costume, kiit, plaid Claymore, dirk and all.
