DIRECTIONS FOR USE THE BLOOMER-GIRI, INSPECTOR WHO WILL WARN IMMIGRANTS. ee She Will Go Down the Bay and Board Ships from Revenue Cut- ter’s Deck by ing Ladder. ‘The sight of jauntily attired “bloomer girls’ scaling the ladders Tevenve cutters is a vigion which Uncle Sam's boarding officers and the registry clerks at imniigration headquarters at Ellis Island are discussing with con- siderable anticipation. ‘The orders sent William Williams, Im- migration Commissioner, from Washing- ton to appoint five women inspectors for the port of New York has resulted in scores of applications being made to the Commissioner by young women who are anxious to don the uniform and as- eume the duties, whoch are to warm. the first and second cabin female passengers against procurers for evil resorts, ‘The five women inspectors will neces- sarily have to go down the bay and meet incoming steamships on the reve- nue cutter. The climbing of the ladder on the side of the ship will be a detail of their wort. ‘The most vital question which arose after the announcement waa made at ‘Washington that five female inspectors should be appointed was as to the dress of the women whbd will scale the ships’ sides and follow in the footsteps of the men inspectors. And now it has been decided. Com- missioner-General Sargent himself sug- gested part of the cotume to Mangaret Dye Ellis, whose efforts brought about the President's action in ordering the appointment of the women inspectors, When the women inspeotors sail down the bay they will be clad in navy-blue with a blue skirt heavily reaching to the shoe tops. | High gaiters will be worn, a close-fit- ting blue jacket and an Inspector's cap. An official badge will further announce their position. It was the Commisstoner-General who suggested the weighting of the skirts and who first brought up the subject of a uniform being adopted. When Margaret Dye Ellis, Superin- itendent of Legislation for the National Woman's Christian Temperance Union, first asked that women , inspectors be appointed to look after the welfare of | young gitls coming to this country and to spare them the fate of falling into the hands of procurers, jthat the inspectors could meet the for- eign arrivals at the docks. WHIST FOR CHOP Maybe So; Anyway Chinamen Were Discharged in Court. ‘Two more farcical refs on gambling houses in Chinatown were made last night by Detectives McGinnis and Grim- shaw, of the Eilzabeth street station. These raids have been frequent of late, and in no instanoe have the Chinamen arrested been held, ‘There were scventeen of them in Cen- tre Street Court to-day. Of these six had been captured at No. 12 Pell street. The others were taken in at No. 16 The detectives were un- Climb- of incoming NOT DUE TO CLIMATE. Catarrh Is Found Bverywhere. Catarrh fs at home anywhere and every- where. While more common in cold, ohangeablo climates, tt is by no means con- fined to them, but 1s prevalent in every State and Territory in the Unton. ‘The common definition of catarrh is a chronte cold in the head, which if long neg- lected often destroys tho sense of smell and hearing; but there are many other forms of the disease, cven more obstinate and dan- gerous. Catarrh of the throat and bronchial tubes as well as catarrh of the stomach and liver 4a almost as common as nasal catarrh, and generally more difficult to cure. Catarrh 1s undoubtedly a blood disease, and can only be successfully eradicated by an internal treatment. Sprays, washes and Powders aro useless as far as reaching the Teal seat of the disease is concerned. Dr. Melverney advises catarrh sufferers to use a new prepamtion, sold by druggists, called Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, because actual analysis has shown these tablets to contain certain antiseptic qualities of the ‘highest value, and being an internal rem- edy, pleasant to the taste, convenient and harmless, can be used as freely as required, as well for obildren as for adults, An attorney and public speaker, who had been a catarrh gufferer for years, says: “Every tall I would catch a cold which would settle in my head and throat and hang on all winter jong, and every winter it seemed to get a iittle worse. I was con- tinually clearing my throat, and my votoe @ affected to such an extent as to in- with my public speaking. tried troches and cheap cough cures, and sometimes got relief, but only for a short time, until this winter, when I learned of the new catarrh cure,’ Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, through a newspaper advertiee- ment. Two fifty-cent boxes which I bought at my druggist’s cleared my head and throat in fine shape, and to guard against ® return of my old trouble I keep @ box of the tablets on hand, and whenever I catch ‘@ little cold I take @ tablet or two and ward serious developments,” 's Catarrh Tablets deserves to head tho Ist as a household remedy, to check and break up coughs and colds, because, unlike many other catarrh and cough oures, thede tablete contain no opiate, cocaine or eny injurious drug. r idea was SUEY?
