Vladivostok, Doc. 23.—A ChineflO
general with his seven wives and a
smaji bodyguard walked into the
station at Harbin a lew days since
as tue Vladivostok train was about
to start and demanded accommoda
tion for himself and party.
The Chinese Eastern, although a
joint Russian-Chinese property, is
operated, by the Russians in con
junction with the Siberian railway.
The Russian station master con
sulted his watch, shrugged, and
"Nilza," which is the itussjaii
equivalent for "it can't be done."
He explained' that the train was full
and it was leaving time.
Without further parley the gen
eral dispatched members of his
oodyguard to hold the train. Others
mounted guard on the car platforms.
Theu the general ordered the Sta
tion-master to procure a car "qui
qui," which is Chinese l'or "instant
ly without back-talk" on pain of
very serious consequentes to him
self.
Twenty minuteg later the train
pulled out with the Chinese general
and his seven wives aboard in a
spacious private car.
There is more Catarrh in this sect:on
of the country than all cither diseases
put together, and for years It wa3 sup
posed to bo incurable. Doctors prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing
to cure with local treatment, pronounced
it Incurable. Catarrh is a local disease,
greatly Influenced by constitutional con
ditions and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Medi
