WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.—Under a spe- clal order the Senate devoted the greater part of its session to-day to eulogies upon | the late Scnator John H. Gear of Iowa, who dled last July. A resolution offered by Kyle of South Dakota was adopted, calling upon the Sec- retary of War for coples of the report of General MacArthur and the reports of | other officers upon educational work In the Philippines. A concurrent resolution offered a few aays ago by Lindsay of Kentucky, provid- | ing for the celebration on February 4 next of the one hundredth anniversary of the assumption of the Chjef Justiceship of the United States by John Marshall, was called up. Lindsay made a brief statement in sup- | port of the resolution. Hale, who had objected to the resolu- tion, said he felt it unilkely that Congress, | under the great pressure of public busi: | ness, would have a day even for so good and laudable a purpose as that contem- plated by the resolution. Fowever, he would yleld his objection. The resolution was adopted without fur- ther debate. Allison then, at the conclusion of routine business, presented resolutions expressive of the regret of the Senate at the death of | Sinator Goar ana providing that the busi- | ness.of the Senate be suspended in order | that his hl{!!l)cll(el might pay fitting 0 |« memory. "E"e"’&’t:r Gear was much beloved by his colleagues in the Senate and the tributes | paid to his character and distinguished®| services were heartfelt and eloquent. Those who paid tribute to his memory were Senators Allison of Iowa, Platt of Connecticut, Cockrell of Missourl, Nelson of Minnesota, Spooner of Wisconsin, Morgan of Alabama, Mason of Illinois, | Clay of Georgia and Dolliver of Towa.

When all were ssembled beneath the storied roof of the v, and the long aisles framed a marvelous picture of life and color the Queen entered. The whole assemblage rose to thelir feet as the familiar figure of the mother of her people slowly passed down the nave to take her place before the altar, where, in the midst of her chil- dren, .she offered thanks. And as the Queen—the highest on earth—knelt be- fore the Lord God of heaven, all thought of her males and her might and of her empire over land and sea, disappeared, and we saw only the plain little loving- hearted woman, who as mald, wife and widow had for fifty years shared, more than any, all the joys, the sorrows, the hopes and fears, the trying vicissitudes and glowing aspirations which make up the sum of the private and public life of her people. And as she joined in the jubi- lant anthem-of praise to Him who alone is the giver of all good g!fts, it was as it I saw a new and more glorious rendering of the old painting I had seen In my youth.

G DURHAM OF GEORGIA. Catarrh of the Lungs the First Stage of Consumption. So All Medical thorities Agree. Au- Judge Durham, a well-known local Judge of Greensboro, Ga., had an exper- fence with Peruna well worth reciting. A report had become current among the Judge's friends that he was threatened with consumption. It was feared for a time that Georgla was to lose one of its most prominent and influential citizens. It was also reported that the Judge had fafled to get any relief from any of the medical aid at his command, that he hal made use of the now world famous rem- edy Peruna, and made a prompt recovery. The affair created quite a sensation in medicel circles especially, and the many | friends of Judge Durham were not only exceedingly gratified at his recovery, bat were enthusfastic in their praises of the remedy that had brought him relief. The<public importance of the Judge, to- gether with the prominence of his many friends, as well as the startling and dram- atic features of the unexpected cure caused one of our leading newspapers io make inquiry into the facts. The following written statement from the Judge himself sets forth the fact: Greensboro, Ga., March 3, 1300 “Some time ago | contracted a severe cold which settled on my lungs and in my head. | tried many reme- dies, all of which gave mes no relief. 1 concluded that my case was catarrh of the head and Jungs, and. seeing Peruna so highly recommended | be- gan using it, experiencing the very best results from the first bottle. I continued using Peruna for a short while, and have never felt the least symptoms of catarrh since. Paruna is certainly a good medicine, and deserves the high praise which is yiven it by tho general public.” Judge Durham has been Secretary and Treasurer of the city of Greensboro, Ga., for the past three years, and has been a local Judge for ten years. } Dread Consumption. | . There are three roads which lead from health to consumption. Over one of thess roads pass all of that great multitude of people die every year of consumption. Each route begins with health and happi- 1 ness and ends with disease and death. First road: A slight cold—neglected - | settles in the head or throat—chronis catarrh—extends to the lungs—consump- tion—death. | “Second road: A_slight cold—neglected | cough—settles In the lungs—cough gradu- ally growing worse—consumption—death Third road: A cold—neglectad—settles in the throat—hoarseness—short breath—con- have just started on ome of all of whom could be easi’y cured by Peruna. Thousands more ara half way to the fatal end of one of theso roads who are still curable by a course of treatment by Peruna. Yet other thou- sands are near the end whose last days could be made bearable and hope of recov- ery more probable by commencing Pe- runa without delay. “Friends Gave Me Up.” Mrs. Eliza Heinzle, 20§ East Fulton street, Columbus, Ohio, writes: “About a year ago I contracted a violent cold, which settled on my lungs, and for four menths I ran down very rapidly, coughing up quantities of bloody mu and fre- | auently had hemorrhages from the lung: | I was on the verge of the graye. My hus band and my friends had given me up Some one. however, who had tried your Peruna, advised me to use it. As a last hope I bought a bottle, and, finding | mediate relief from its use, continued ta ng it. My cough left me, and I had "0 | more hemorrhages, and I am now as weil as 1 ever was in my life. I thankfully at- tribute mv present zood health, and. In fact. my living at all, to the good effect of Peruna.” MRS. ELIZA HEINZLE. Lung Trouble Cured. Miss Lou Ware writes from Bryan, as, the following lette: For several years 1 have suffered with throat and lung trouble caused from tak- ing cold when confined to my room with measles. Peruna cured my throat, and T believe by using as directed that my voice will be entirely restored (as I had lost It almost completely).

WHAT SHALL WE EAT To Keep Healthy and Strong? | A healthy appetite and common sense are_excellent guides to follow in matters of diet, and a mixed diet of grains, fruits | and meats is undoubtedly the best, in spite of the claims made by vegetarians and food cranks generally. | As compared with grains and vegetables, meat furnishes the most nutriment in a highly concentrated form and is digested and assimilated more quickly than vege- tables or grains. Dr. Julfus Remusson on this subject says: Nervous persons. people run down in heaith and of low vitality should eat plenty of meat. If the digestion is too feeble at first it may be easily strength- ened by the regular use of Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets after each meal. Two of these excellent tablets taken after dinner | will digest several thousand grains of | meat, eggs or other animal food in threa ! or four hours, while the malt aiastase | aiso contained 'in Stuart’s Tablets causos | the perfect digestion o starchy foods, like potatoes, bread, etc., and no matter how weak the stomach may be, no trouble will be experlenced if a regular practice Is made of using Stuari's Dy: epsa Tablets, because, they supply the pepsin and dias: | tase so necessary to perfect digestion, ani | any form of indigestion and stomach | trouble except cancer of the stomach will be overcome by their daily use. | _ That large class of people Who come un- der the head of nervous dyspeptics should eat plenty of meat and insure its com- Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tabiets, composed of | the naturai digestive princinles, neptcnes and diastase, which actually perform the work of digestion and give the abused | stomach a chance to rest and to furmish the body and brain with the necessary nutriment. Cheap caihartic medicines masquerading under tae name of dyspep- sla_cures are useless for rellef or cure ot Indigestion because they have absolutcly no cHect upon the actaal digestion of food. Dyspepsia in all its forms is simply a failure of the stomach to digest food ana the sensible way to solve the riddle and cure the indigestion is to make daily use at meal time of a safe preparation which is endorsed by the meédical prc ‘ession aud’ known to contain actlve digestive prin- ciples, and all this ~an truly be d of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets.

The bill carries §77,016,635, the largest amount ever reported to the House from the Committee on Naval Affairs. This is $11,865,718 above the bill of last year and $10,229,3%5 below the estimates Submitted by the Navy Department. Concerning the new ships for the navy the report says: “For the purpose of further increasing the naval strength of the United States the committee recommends that the President be authorized to have buiit by contract two unsheathed sea-geing bat- tleships, carrying the heaviest armor and the most powerful ordnance for ves- sels of their class, upon a trial displace- ment of about 14,000 tons each, to have the highest practicable speed and great- est radlus® of action, and to cost, ex- clusive of armor and armament, not ex- ceeding 33,850,000 each, and two unsheathed armor crulsers, carrying the heaviest armor and most powerful ordnance for vessels of their class, upon a trial dis- placement of about 14,000 tons each, and to have the highest practicable speed and greatest radius of action, and to cost, exclusive of armor and armament, not excecaing $4,000,00. Tue maximum cost of the vessels herein authorized, exclusive of armor and armament, will be $15,700,- 000, “Fhe bill provides that not more than one battlesnip or armored cruiser shall be built in one yard or by one party, and the usuai provision is made that at least one, and not more than two, of the bat- tleships and _armored ecrulsers shail be built on the Pacific Coast. Of the appropriations for the varlous branches of the service the principal item is $25,400,000 for the increase of the navy. 7The pay of the navy is increased §2,480,381 over the appropriations for the same object last vear, and is accounted for by the authority granted to the de- partment Lo eniist 009 additional seamen and fifty warrant machinists to meet the necessity of properly manning the new ghips soon to be added to the navy. "o’ meet the emergency of the lack of officers for the new ships the bill provides that the two cadet classes now at sea, which have completed their four years’ course at the naval academy, shall be commissioned. This will provide for the new officers desired by the department, and in the judgment of the committee will meet all the exigencies of the pres- ent situation. The continved necessity for an emer- gency fund Is found to exist in the unset- tied state of affairs in the Far East to enable the department to meet contin- gencies which it is impossible to antici- pate with sufficlent accuracy to specific- estimate for. following places receive appro, - tions for naval work: Portsmouth, 800; Boston, $526.000; New York, $1,009.000 League Island, $6%.230; Washington, $315,% 210; Norfolk, Mare Island, $331. get Sound, $275. 000; San Juan. $40.000; Pensacola, $41,500; Algiers, $230, v’ Tortugas, $100,000; s, 000; 3 Hawali, §107,300; Tutulla, $255,000. For the four new drydocks now bufld- ing at Mare Island $1.000.000 is provided. The committee recommends this year an appropriation of $3,000,000 for the rebuilding of the naval academy. In last year's bill $350,000 was appropriated, to that time $1,220.00. makirg a_tof ppropria- tion of $1,570,000 prior to the present bill. “Your committee also provides, under the increase of the navy, an appropriation of $4,000,000 for armor and armament for ships now under construction. It will be remembered that Congress wisely solved the perplexing question of pro mor plate for our ships last year by the enactment of a provision giving the Sec- retary of the Navy full power to buy ar- mor at such price as in his judgment might seem reasonable and just, or to build an armor plate factory, toward which $4.000. was _appropriated. It ought to be a matter of general congratu- latlon that the armor plate question has been settled through the skill, firmness and excellent judgment of the Secretary of the Navy fn carrying out the evident purposes of Congress.” Edison in Contempt.

The building was a small one, recently pur- | chased by the city as an emergency hos- pital for the reception of smallpox pa- tients, and was to have been put into use to-day. The citizens became enraged at the lo- cation of the building within the city lim- its, and Friday night an attempt was made to burn the structure, but it was saved by the prompt action of the fire department. To-night a crowd of men gathered near the building, overpowered the guards stationed Inside, stood off the lice with guns and set the bufl ng on fire.
