It has been reported all along that Stuart was suffering from an attack of indiges- tion. It was stated today on good author- ity that his illness was due to a peculiar form of pneumonia known in this section as mountain fever. Both Stuart’s lungs were affected, and last Thursday his tem- perature was 104. A consultation, at which four leading physicians of this city were present. was held at his bedside, and the medical men declared that Stuart had not _ more than 1 chance in 20 to recover. He was able to walk about his room yestero day. He now hopes to be about within a week. Secretary Wheelock estimates the seat- ing capacity of the pavilion at from 17,000 to 20,000.

There is more C atarrh inthis section of the coutry than all other diseases put to- gether, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a con- stitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.

When a pu he‘decided upon his vocation, and in accordance with - his views he entered the basement of the post-omce at Albany and attached himself to the 'regular mail service. His devotion to the self-appointed duty of guarding mail-sacks interested the clerks, and as a reward he was permit ted to accompany them on trips in the mail- -.cars Owney recognized this as an upward step in his career, and permitting his independence to assert itself, he would disappear for weeks at a time, return- ing at last to his adopted home at A1~ bany. The numerous railway tags at- tach-ed to his collar upon his return showed that he had been travelling with the mails. The route his dog- ship selected sometimes embraced the four extreme points of the United States. and it was, and is, no uncoma men thing to find him wearing such vtags at Seattle; Washington, Galves- ton, Tcxas, and Tampa, Florida. after one of these trips. “ owvnv ” One day, thinking that some mail pouches for Washington fl’uiil Albany might contain state secrets to be zeal- ously guarded, he assumed the duty, and thus received his introduction to John “'anamaker, then Postmaster- General. Mr. . Wanamaker pre- sented Owney with an elabo- rate harness, and, proud of his present, the (log made an ex- tended tour. The weight of the tags gathered on his trip at last equalled his own, and, unable to stand the strain, he was compelled to return home and be relieved of his honors. There are few post-ofiices and rail- way lines in the United States and Canada that have not entertained Owney. His Canadian experience was, however. a lamentable one, as a rail- way collision deprived him of an eye and part of one ear. 'l‘he'North Ger- man Lloyd steamél's have carried him as passenger a number of times. and the P. and O. steamers took him to the for East during the Chino-Japanese war. During this trip he inspected the mail service of India. Nothing will induce him to ride in any but the mail-cars, where. curled up on the pouches, he will permit: none but the mail-clerks to touch them. These men are very fond of him, and he never lacks" for attention. He treats them all impartially, and comes and goes as he wills. As another dog knows a bone, so Owney does a mail-sack, and he will leap aboard. the trains with them in the most unexpected places, to be. always received with delight—Harper’s Round Table. A Plucky Boy.- One of the pluckiest boys that even- rose to rank in the British royal navy, and to the achievement of a great repu— tation for prudence, foresight, and gal- lantry scarcely inferior to Nelson’s, was Admiral Hopson, who was, born in the Isle of Wight, left anorphan when a child, and apprenticed by the parish to a tailor. The tailor's board, however, soon grew hateful to the lit- tle fellow; he yearned for quite another sort of board—I moan ship— board. And being one day alone in the shop, looking across the sea. lie-spied a squadron of men—of-war flouting slowly around Dun-nose. Acting upon the impulse of the. in,-_ stant, be rushed from the shop,_sprang into a boat, cast her painter loose. and contrived, by sculling with all his might, to re.ch Admiral’s ship. He was received and entered as n volun- teer. Early next morning the British' squadron fell in with a number 'of Frenchmen, and a hot action began. Little Hopson obeyed orders with wonderful ' alacrity and fearlessness; but when the fight had proceeded for 1:1, 21411111; he 'grew impatient. and. turnip}: to a seaman, asked why the ships were firing at one another. Jack answered that the action must contin- ue till the white rag at the enemy’s mast-head was struck. The ships were then engaged yard—arm to yard-arm. The air was thick with smoke of gun- powder. 'I-Iopson sprang into the shrouds, ran out to the main-yard-arm, gained the French- Admiral’s yard- arm, and running aloft. cut away the French flag, and brought it safely on board his own ship. The client was amazing. The British yelled “Vic— tory!” believing the French had struck; and the Frenchmen fled below. not doubting, now that Admirnl’s flap; had disappeared, that the‘battle was lost. For this surprising act of heroism young Hopson was promoted to the quarter-deck——IIarpe1"s Round Table. Mamma: “Where’s papa?"
