A New Discovery Which Cures all i ui in wdiamii The tablet the Ideal form in which to aduilirtm-r medicine, but until recently no successful catarrh tablet had ever been attempted. There Is now, however, an excellent and palatable remedy for catarrh in tablet form, known as Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and sold by druggists, composed of the most recent discoveries Jn medicine for cure of catanli. and results from their use have been hlghiy gratifying. The old time treatment of catarrh was In the form of inhalers, washe. douches, prays, etc.

Later on internal remedies were used with greater success, but being In liquid or powder form were inconvenient to use, and like all medicines in liquid or powder form, lose their medicinal properties when opened or exposed to the air. Smart's Catarrh Tablets contain nlghly concentrated antiseptics, Hydrastis. Sanguinaria, Kucalyptol and Guaiaeoi, which kill the catarrh germs in the blood and mucous membrane, and in this respect are strictir scientific and modern, because all authorities are now agreed that catarrh Is a constitutional blood disease, and local applications can have only a transitory effect. 'J he use of inhalers, douches and sprays Is a nuisance and Inconvenience, and can in no wise compare favorably with the same antiseptics jriven in tablet form internaliv, where they can reach the stomach and blood and kill genus right where they are produced. A prominent lawyer and speaker of Pittsburg shvm: "I have been troubled with catarrh of the head and throat for twelve years.

In this climate it seeum Impossible to pet rid of it. The continual dropping of mucus from the nose into the throat caused Irritatirn and hoarseness, seriously Interfering with my public speaking. It took me an hour or more of coughing, gagging, expectorating and sneezing every morning before I cou'd settle down to work, and this condition gradually brought on catarrh of stomach, causing loss of appetite, poor digestion and a foul breath, which annoyed me exceedingly. My physii Ian advised me to try Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and I took them for two months and was astonished to find how quickly they cleared my head, throat and stomach, and I have no hesitation in recommending them. Thev are not only pleasant to take, imt they seem to get at the vctv root of the trouble, because since using them I have had no trace of catarrh." Iiruggists s-ell Stuart's Catarrh Tablets at 50 cents for full sized package.

They can be carried in the pocket and tised any time and as often as desired since they contain no cocaine, mercury or any other Injurious drug. Only $50.00 To California And Return from Chicago.

RAILROAD CAR LIGHTING. Some Statistics of the Growth of a Great Industry. New York Mail aud Express. The question of car lighting is one that has been given especial attention by a great number of prominent railroad men during the past year, aud a number of suggested systems have been experimented with. The result of the increased interest in this subject, and the experimentation that followed as a consequence, has been to increase very largely the use of the Pintsch system of lighting.

The Safety Car Heating and Lighting Company, who own the Piutsch system for the United States and Canada, reports that the past year was the largest iu the history of the company, that is, more cars were equipped with Pintsch light than had been done in any other one year since the Pintsch method was introduced iu the United States. It is found upon reference to the figures complied by the Pintsches, of Berlin, showing the number of Pintsch lighting equipments in use in the various countries of the world, that up to January 1, 1001, there were 105,00 curs equipped with the Pintsch light system. This represented an increase of cars over the total fig ures for the period ending January 1, 1S09. The number of cars equipped with the 1'lntscn system during the past two years (14,400) was greater than at any other period of two years since the intro duction of gas lighting for railroad cars The constantly increasing use of the com pressed oil gas system of lighting for railroad coaches proves in a most conclusive manner that there is nothing to compete with it. At the present time there are fifty-six i iuiscn gas manuractunng plants in operation throughout the United States and Canada, and preparations are making for the erection of a number of other works which will be located at St.

Paul, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Mexico-San Antonio and El Paso. Tex The great advantage of this system of iignung is to tie round in its simplicity and reliability and its safety features. The companies controlling the system for te various countries are constantly at work investigating all possible means of car na looking into any suggested uiciuuu ui improving the Pintsch light.

Holly Manufacturing Company Importing: Skilled Workmen. STRIKERS NOT BOTHERED They Believe That the Company Muit go Far to Find Men Capable of Taking Their Places-Niagara County.

The strike of the machinists at the shops of the Trevor Manufacturing Company, Lockport, took a sudden turn yesterday when the men were ordered to take their tools from the works of the company and in the future consider themselves dis charged. Repeated conferences have been held with the Trevor people but no agreement could be reached, and the order to remove the tools is the result. The Holly Manufacturing Company, which has been practically closed since the men went out on May 20th, sent an ultimatum to the men last Thursday, or dering them to return to work by Monday morning or their places would be filled with non-union men. The men did not return and the Holly Company now will import men from out of town. The men are not at all dismayed at the action of the company, inasmuch as they claim that a force of mechanics capable of doing the work cannot be gotten together in this country at present.

The class of labor performed at this shop is the finest in the pump line in the United States, and the men are considered the most capable mechanics that can be obtained. The men know this and are still more firm in their demands. Pickets have been placed at the railroad stations, and all newcomers in the city are met by the committees. So far sev eral men have been induced to leave the city. Three men are at work at the shops.

and the company has work enough ahead to keep them busy for the next three years. John Murrey Drowned. John Mulvey, a well-known character, was drowned in the raceway of the Hy draulic Race Company at a late hour Sun day night. While workmen were cleaning the rack at the raceway bulkhead yester day morning, Mulvey's body was found. He was 73 years of age and resided in Lockport for many years.

He is survived by nine children, three daughters and six sons. Death From Old Age. The lifeless body of John Wesley, an aged colored man, was found in a cot at the barn of Willis Capin, at Bebe's sawmills, seven miles from Lockport yesterday morning. 'Wesley retired the previous night in his usual good health and was found dead when Mr. Capin went to call him for breakfast.

Coroner Mayne pro nounced death due to old age. SENECA. Twenty-Four Non-Union Men Back at Gould's Shops. The announcement having been made that Gould's Xo. 2 shops, otherwise known as the "Triplex Pump Works," on Oak street, Seneca Falls, would resume operations yesterday morning, a large crowd of strikers and citizens gathered in the vicinity to note the result.

Non-union men, to the number of twenty-four, returned to work, and at 7 o'clock, the blowing of the familiar shop whistle and whirr of the starting machinery indicated a break in the long period of inactivity. About one-half the men who went back are skilled machinists. On the morning of the strike, four weeks ago Monday, 131 men walked out of shop No. 2, which is said to be about thirty short of a full complement. The watching strikers were quiet and orderly as the non-nnion men passed into the shop.

As the iron molders have not gone back to work, apparently waiting for an adjustment of the difficulty, it is not easy to premise exactly how long the Triplex work's can be operated, as that will be governed by the quantity of castings that may be on hand. Saturday ended the fourth week of the strike, aud found both men and firms apparently as enduring and firm as when the men first went out. The strike has been costly from every standpoint. It is diffi cult to approximate the losses to the various firms affected, which, it is believed, will reach well on towards which consists of unearned profits and losses in contracts, which have drifted to other places. The business men feel a cash shortage that is not pleasant, while it is easier to compute the losses to the employees, which is represented by the differ ence between the wages each received and the weekly allowances from the unions, It is safe to state that the onlv persons at Seneca Falls who have not been touched by the financial stringency are the post office, express companies and railroad employees.

CONVERSE'S STATEMENT. Explanation of Alleged Arrest of a Steel Corporation Magnate. New York, June 17. E. C.

Converse, through his counsel in this city, this afternoon furnished the following statement as embodying all facts in connection with service of notice of a suit at Greens-burg, last week: "On Friday, June 14th, the two special cars in which the United States Steel corporation executive committee were traveling reached Pittsburg over the Baltimore Ohio railroad and were run into the Pittsburg depot, stopping there about half an hour. The cars were then taken to the Pennsylvania plant of the National Tube Company, stopping there half an hour; thence to the Continental plant of the same company stopping there half an hour; thence to McKeesport, where they were side tracked for about four hours. "I was In and about the National Tube Works at McKeesport with the other members of the committee and National Tube officers for three or four hours. The cars then went to the other plants of the National Tube Works; thence to the coke regions. All day Saturday was spent about the coke regions and Greensburg was reached, where the cars were to be transferred to the Pennsylvania railroad, and they lay ready to be taken up by the fast Eastern mall train.

I was In the renter of the car when Chairman Gary's secretary, Mr. Murray, walked up and said there was a man In the rear of the car who desired to give me a message; that he had offered to take it, but the man said he wanted to deliver It to me personally. I at once stepped back to the end of the car, where there were two strangers. One of them handed me a bill In equity, subpoenae or summons, In a suit brought by J. L.

Devinny, et for an accounting In a matter wHere 1 never handled one dollar of the money, and which Is still In the hands of a competent and responsible trustee. When the man handed me the paper he said: Here is a notice of I received the paper and replied to him that I accepted service. He then thanked me tor my courtesy and stepped off the car, and that is all that there was to it." 0DELL FOR PRESIDENT. Piatt's Prediction With Reference to New York' 8 Governor. New York, Juue 17.

"It seems to me that Governor Odcll will be re-elected and that he will later be president." This was Senator Thomas C. Piatt's reply to a question put him yesterday as to whether Governor Odell is likely to feucceed him in the senate two years hence. "It has been reported that you may resign from the senate ere your term expires?" "I have no such intention. The only fact is that I propose to retire when my term ends in 1IK)3. The reports that I am in ill health are unfounded." Old Home Week in Vermont.
