MISS LAURA HOWARD,

Golf Club, Chicago, Cured by
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
' Compound After the Best Doc
tors Had Failed To Help Her.
" Dicar Mrs. Pink ham : —I can thank
you for perfect health to-day. Life
looked so dark to me a year or two
ago. I had constant pains, my limbs
swelled, I had dizzy spells, and never
MISS LAURA HOWARD, CHICAGO,
knew one day how I would feel the
next. I was nervous and had no ap
petite, neither could I sleep soundly
nights. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg
etable Compound, used in con
junction with your Sanative Wash, did
more for me than all the medicines
and the skill of the doctors. For eight
months I have enjoyed perfect health.
I verily believe that most of the doc
tors are guessing and experimenting
when they try to cure a woman with
an assortment of complications, such as
mine ; but you do not guess. How I
wish all suffering women could only
know of your remedy; there would be
less suffering I know.”—Laura How
ard, 113 Newberry Ave., Chicago, 111.

They Are Keeping Things Lively
By a Pr6f usion of Elaborate
Entertainments.
rHEY ARE IN EVIDENCE EVERYWHERE.
The Only Drawback to the Universal
Gaiety Which Ha. Taken Hold of
the Smart Set In the Abominable
Weather—Americana Delighted
at General Courtesy.
London, June 15.—Seldom has Lon
don seen such profusion of American
entertainments as occurred the past
week. The greatest international
and social event of the season was
the dinner of Joseph H. Choate, the
United States ambassador, and Mrs.
Choate to King Edward and Queen
Alexandra, on Wednesday, and since
the arrival of the United States am
bassador to the coronation, White
law Reid, all officialdom has been
busy leaving cards'at the residence of
America’s special envoy.
Prominent Visitors.
Mrs. Crocker and her two step
daughters, tie Misses Rutherford,
have been entertaining at Claridges;
Gen. John W. Clous has been hobnob
bing with Lord Roberts and other
English army dignitaries, and Gen.
Jos. Wheeler, United States Consul
General Henry Clay Evans, the mem
bers of the American polo team and
their supporters, notably Jas. R.
Keene, are frequently seen at social
gatherings. President Roosevelt’s
two sisters, Mrs. W. Sheffield Cowles
and Mrs. Douglas Robinson, have been
overwhelmed with invitations, and
have arranged various entertainments
at the house they have taken in
Grosvenor Crescent.
Flitting of the OntterflieM.
The Mackays, Bradley-Martins,
Wards, Murlboroughs, and almost ev
ery one of London’s well-known
Americans are nightly seen at the
opera, afterwards flitting from one
ball to another.
June 23 will be a gala night for the
American colony. The Bradley-Mar
tins will give a very elaborate dinner
at their house, in Chesterfield gar
dens, which is likely to outrival in
luxuriance, the famous Bradley-Mar
tin ball. The same night Mrs. John
W. Mackay’s Carlton House terrace
mansion will be the scene of a big
dinner, while also the same night,
Reginald Bard will give a dinner of
80 covers. On the following night
the Ogilvy Hays will entertain.
Ab<»iniliable Weather.
The very bad weather hcf mnrking
the eve of Ascot week threatens to
mar somewhat the many house par
ties previously arranged. If the rain
will only cease and June become 5; self
again, the gayety which has taken
hold of the nation will doubtless have
a superb outlet at the fashionable
race meeting in which many Ameri
cans have planned to participate.
American Official UrlcKallan.
The distinguished Americans who
accompany Whitelaw Reid are at
present scattered over the West End,
but June 23 will go to the Bucking
ham Palace hotel as guests of the
nation, with the exception of Mr.
Reid, who, of course, will remain /it
Brook House. Gen. Jas M. Wilson,
representing’ the army of the United
States at the coronation, and his two
daughters, are now at Claridge’s, hut
they expect to pay a flying visit to
Paris. Rear-Admiral John C. Wat
son, representing the United States
navy at the coronation, and his son,
Lieut. E. H. Watson, LT. S. N., have
taken temporary rooms, where the
British naval officials are flocking to
pay their respects. Commander W.
Sheffield Cowles, the former naval at
tache of the United States here, with
his wife and sister-in-lay, are occu
pying a house in Grosvenor Place, Col.
John Biddle, U. S. A.. Gen. Wilson’s
aide, is already at the Buckingham
Palace hotel.
All Arc DcliKhtcd.
All the visitors say that they are
glad of the chance to visit England
under such auspicious circumstances.
They are all delighted at the cour
tesy exhibited but they are all rath
er aghast at the avalanche of invita
tions which they have received. With
in a few days order will doubtless
come out of the present chaos.

FOR ANNEXATION OF CUBA.
Senator Klklim. of Went Virginia.
Introduces a Joint Resolu
tion For the Purpose.
Washington, June 15.—Senator El
kins introduced a joint resolution in
the senate providing for the anenxa
tion of Cuba and for its admission as
a state of the union.
The resolution grants the consent
of congress to the erection of the re
public of Cuba as a state of the un
ion, “To be called the State of Cuba,
with a republican form of govern
ment, to be adopted by the people of
said republic by deputies in conven
tion assembled with the consent of
the existing government.” .
A condition is specified that, the
constitution of the proposed state
shall be submitted to congress not
later than January 1, 1904. There is
also a provision that the debts of
Cuba shall not become a charge upon
the general government. There also
is an alternative provision giving the
president authority, if he prefers, to
proceed in a more direct way for
Cuba’s admission as a state. This
provision permits the admission un
der the terms of the resolution itself,
“instead of proceeding to submit the
resolution to Cuba as an overture on
the part of the United States.” If
this latter course is pursued a state is
to be formed, “Out of the present re
public of Cuba, with a republican
form of government, and with rep
resentatives in congress, and be ad
mitted into the union by this act,
on an equal footing with the existing
states as soon as the terms and con
ditions of such admission shall be
agreed upon by the governments of
the republic of Cuba and the United
States.”
The resolution provides for the ap
propriation of $100,000 to carry its
provisions into effect.
TO CONFEDERATE DEAD.
Dedication of Memorial Arch to
Confederates Who Died in
t'niup Chase, Ohio.
Columbus, O., June 15.—The un
veiling' and dedication of a memorial
arch to 2,250 confederate dead at
tracted 5,000 people from all parts of
the country to this city Saturday.
The arch was the gift of William
Harrison, of Cincinnati, a former cit
izen of Columbus. The dead soldiers
were prisoners at Camp Chase, west
of Columbus, during the war, and
died in prison. For many years the
little cemetery was neglected. For
mer President Hayes paid a farmer
to keep the burial ground free from
weeds. Former Gov. Foraker had the
government inclose the spot with a
stone wall. Several years ago, Col.
W. H. Knauss, a public-spirited local
citizen and ex-federal soldier, insti
tuted a yearly custom of decorating
the graves. Mr. Harrison was not a
soldier in either army, but was in
fluenced in making his gift by senti
ment.
The dedication ceremonies were
the most elaborate ever held. There
were many ex-confederates present
from all parts of the south. Among
the speakers were Gov. Nash and
Gen. John B. Gordon. The graves
were decorated by the ladies of the
G. A. K. and the Daughters of the
Confederacy. •

i a»OL in
Bow Street Police Court, London,
Crowded When Col. Lynch’s
Case Was Called.
WAS AGAIN REMANDED UNTIL JUNE 21.
Th» Prosecution Outlined Its Can
mid Defense Announced Deter
lulnntion to Face the Proceeding!
Manfully and Facilitate Them ai
Much aa Possible.
London, June 15.—Bow Street po
lice court was crowded, Saturday
morning, when the investigation intc
the charge of high treason brought
against Col. Arthur Lynch, formerly
of the Boer army, was begun. Lynch,
who was elected member of parlia
ment for Galway, in November last,
was arrested at New Haven, Wednes
day', upon landing from France. Mrs.
Lynch and other friends of the ac
cused were present.
The Prosecution Opened.
The solicitor-general, Sir Edward
Carson, in opening for the prosecu
tion, alluded briefly to Col. Lynch’s
Australian birth, his residence in
Paris and his departure thence to the
Transvaal in January, 1900. “The case
for the prosecution,” said Sir Ed
ward, “will be that on arriving in
South Africa,Lynch took service with
the Transvaal government, raised a
regiment, of which he acted as com
mander, to fight in behalf of the
Boers and actively fought against
Gen. Buller's operations.
The Meat of the Charge.
“Lymch was in Pretoria, January
15, 1900,” the solicitor continued,
“and wrote to the Transvaal authori
ties notifying them of his desire to
take up arms. January 18 he signed
a field cornet’s certificate, describing
himself as an Irishman,a British sub
ject and born in Australia, but de
claring his willingness to fight for
the South African republic in order
to maintain and defend its independ
ence. Lynch also took the oath of
allegiance as a full burgher, the cer
tificate enabling him to do so as well
as to accept a commission from the
Transvaal government. Lynch then
raised the so-called Irish brigade,
joined the invading army in Natal
and issued an appeal signed “Arthur
Lynch, Colonel, Irish Brigade,” invit
ing Irishmen to assist the two repub
lics.”
Defense Isn't Quibbling.
Hon. Charles Russell, second son of
the late lord chief justice. Baron Rus
sell of Killowen. in behalf of the de
fendant, said that Lynch had faced
the proceedings like a man. What he
had done had been done, openly, and
he desired to facilitate the inquiry
as much as possible.
After the police had furnished evi
dence of the prisoner’s arrest, he
was remanded to June 21. During the
course of this evidence Detective In
spector Walsh testified to finding in
Col. Lymch’s pocket a visiting card
of Hamilton Holt, “Introducing Col.
Lynch, of the Boer army, to three
Americans, A. S. Hardy,United States
minister at Berne, Switzerland; Her
bert W. Bowen, United States minis
ter to Teheran (now minister to
Venezuela) and Prof. Richardson, of
the American school at Athens,” and
some testimony had been presented,
regarding Col. Lynch's presence “on
commando” in Natal.

it is possible for him to do so. Other
subjects were talked over in a general

Have You Kidney
or Bladder Trouble?
The Gsse of Mrs. Nancy Ball.
There are no diseases chat more quickly and surely derange the entire constitution than
Kidney or Bladder trouble, and it behooves every man and woman suffering from these diseases
to have themselves cured at once. The body depends upon the Kidnevs to throw off the waste
matter of the system, and when it fails to do this the result is an interference with digestion a
sudden stoppage of the free circulation of the blood and a serious weakening of the heart
Also rheumatism could not exist if it were not for weak and deranged Kidneys.
Mrs. Nancy Ball, proprieto* of tbe Ball
Bouse. Columbia, Miss., says : “ 1 was for a
long time a great sufferer from dropsy
complicated with Kidney and Bladder trou
bles; my feet and hands were swollen and
at times 1 was unable to walk about. My
family physician had exhausted his skill in
the treatment of nay case withoutgiving me
any relief. 1 was then Induced to give
Smith’s Sure Kidney Cure a trial and to my
utter astonishment the first bottle relieved
me, and 1 Am in perfect health and able to
attend to all my duties about the hotel. I
consider Smith's Sure Kidney Cure thegreat
est medicine of the age.’"
MRS. NANCY BALL, Columbia, Miss.
SURE KIBJTEY CURE contains nothing harmful, but nevertheless It will
entirely cure Bright s Disease, diabetes, dropsy, gravel, stone in the bladder, bloated bladder,
frequent desire to urinate, pains in the back. legs, sides and over the Kidneys, swelling of the
feet and ankles, retention of urine, scalding pain in the bladder, wetting the bed—in short, every
form of Kidney, bladder and urinary trouble in man, woman or child.
