RELIEF FOR STARyING MINERS.
Senate Passes a. Bill. Appropriatiug
$250,000 for the Work.
Washington, Dec. 17.—When the Sen-.
ate opened yesterday Mr. Frye, char-
man of the Committee on Commerce,
reported a. bill approp1iating $40, 000
for the purchase or construction of a
rev enue cutter for service on the Yu-
kon River, Alaska, and made a state-
ment as to the importance of immedi-
It was thereupon passed.
The concurrent resolution for a holi—
day adjournment fiom next Saturday
to W'ednesday, Jan. 5, was reported
and agreed to.
Mr. Hawley, of Connecticut,IIchair-
man of the Committee on Military Af-
Iairs, reported a substitute forthe bill
to relieve American miners and' other '
sufferers in the Yukon .district in
Alaska, and asked for its immediate
consideration. ,.
The substitue makes an appropria-
tion of $350,000, to be expended under
the direction of the Secretary of War,
in the purchase, transportation and
distribution of stores, supplies and ma-
terial. It authorizes the Secretaiy (the
consent of the Canadian Government
being first obtained) to extend relief
into Canadian territory, and to sell
subsistence stores at fixed prices, or to
distribute them gratuitously where per-
sons are found' to be in need. It also
authorizes the purchase and importa—
tio1.. of 1eindeer and the employment of
5011 '1.”an reindeer drivers. The substitute
W .3 agreed to and the bill was passed.
Belief Bill in the House.
Washington; Dec. . 17.—Some routine
l‘usiness was disposed of at the open-
ing of the House session yesterday,
and then Mr. Cannon, of Illinois, chair-
man of the Committee on Appropria—I
tions, presented a bill appropriating
$175, 000 to enable the Secretary of War
to purchase supplies, stores and ma-
erials for the inhabitants of the Yu-_
IiOI‘l River country in Alaska, supposed
to be starving, and to provide for the
transportation and distribution of the
supplies
Mr. Bailey questioned the necesity of
the legislation and his colleague, Mr.
Sayres, said it was due to the absolute
inability of D1 1V ate parties to get into
the valley where the inineis me lo-
cated.
Mr. Cannon made an explanation of
the situation in Alaska and what was.
expected to be done for the relief of
the suffere1s. He quoted Dr. Sheldon
Jackson, the Alaskan traveler and ex-
pert, to demonstrate the necessity f01
the relief proposed. He estimated that
5,000 persons were up there, and that,
even if the pioposed expedition weie
started now. they could not be reached
before March 1. Until that time, Dr.
Jackson believed, they could exist by
a division among all of the provisions
in store.
Mr. Bailey, of Texas, criticised the
bill principally on the ground that he
could‘not look with any complacency
on the spectacle of this Government en—
5; «ring in commercial enterprises and
becoming a vendor of reindeer.
The bill was advocated by Messrs.
Cannon and sayres, of Texas. Mr.
Cannon said that principles Were made
for men, and not men for principles,
and that as against achieving practical
results he would never interpose a
mere theory. The bill proposed that
those miners who had gold, which
they couldnot eat, should be permitted
to exchange it for food when the expe-
dition reached them, and thus reim-
burse the Government. Men who could
not buy would have their necessities
supplied without ,money and without
price.
RED HAT FOR CORRIGAN.
He Will Succeed Gibbons as [lend of
the Catholic Church.
Rome, Dec. 17.-—It is again affirmed
that the Pope, recognizing the impor-
tance of New York as. a'" Catholic cen—
tre, will, in one of hi 5 next Consistories,
create Archbishop Corrigan a Cardinal,
with the right of succession to Car-
dinal Gibbons, and theadded dignity
of Primate of'the Catholic Church of
the United States.
The appointment of Archbishop Cor-r
rigan to a Cardinalate has long been
moot. at the Vatican. It is the new and
.Iilgher honor of the- proposed Fri-mdcy
that gives the present story its great
interest. .1, . ‘3
The watchful attention , which His
Holiness has bestowed on Catholic af-
fairs inthe United States has for years
been an increasing one, and the propo<
sition to establish an Arch- Cardinalate
in America, Who should be the admin-
isti at1ve head of the Church outside of
‘ his executive representative, the Le-
gate,a is altogether in keeping with the
new nd advanced policy of the Pa-
pacy.a
. .Exulnlnlng the Lee Bomb.
Havana, IDec. 17.—The bomb which
was left- .in the-building where the
'Un‘ited States Consulate is located is
being examined by an expert. but he'
has not yet determined what explosive
it was filled with. In fact, it may not
have been dangerous at all, but simply
placed where it was for the purpose of
attempting to frighten Consul-General
Lee.
The bomb was a. short tube, cleverly
made and filled, and inclosed in 'a
small wooden box with a draw lid. To'.
allIappearances, it was so made inside
that when the lid was drawn it would
ignite specially prepu-red matches at-
tached to a quick fuse. This is the
second bomb placed in the Consulate
building, but the [first was clumsy and
harmless.

.there would not be a conference, and
none was necessary.

make all appointments up to the time

GIIIIFS MILD II THE HEAD OVER llIlIlT.
There is a right way to do all things.
Every sufi'er er from catar 1'h should
ku’bw that it is impossible to cure the
disease without. using a remedy, that.
. goes at once to the seat of the trouble;
and that medicines taken internally or
by inhailing air into the passages of
the head do not cure, the fact that the
patient is all the time growing worse
is proof that the treatment is all wrong.
, Many that have been under treatment
for yeais and met with disappointment
instead of benefit are willing to doubt
that there is any cure for catarrh.
The trouble is that all of the treat-
ment they have receiv ed has been mis-
directed, and has- not touched their
trouble. Catarih is a local disease,
and a. remedy is needed, but it must. be
good one, which goes down to the very
bottom of the trouble and forces it out;
therefOIe ointments, air inhalants, in
fact nothing except California Catarrh
Cure, can have any effect upon catarrh,
for it. is the onlv CURE which goes di-
reel. to the seat of the disease abnd pe1-
manently gets rid of it. This is the
only reasonable wan to treat cat-arr 11.

seeing the rope dragging in the water,
pulled it in, and pulled Mr. Cramp on

-APPLE CORES FOR CHAMPAGNE.
l‘ho Parlng and Coral Drled and Shipped
to France.
The practice of the economies in the
'ruit-raising sections of the west has
developed a new articlé of export. Un-
:il recently the orchard owners and the
evaporator managers did not think, of
utilizing the cores and the parings of
apples. They occasionally sold them
:0 the jelly-makers or fed them to the
hogs, but-more generally allowed them
4:0 accumulate” refuse in --great.heaps.
This year, in many places, the parings
11111 the cores are being saved. They
ire spread out in the. hot sun and
lried, after. which they are packed in
cargo sacks and. held forbuyers, who
gatherthem up and send away in car
lots. The destination of the dried par-
lugs-.and cores in these large quanti-
iies is France. It is no secret that the
'efuse of the orchards of the Missouri
valley and the Ozark country is now
largely employed in the manufacture

makers -, of the vineclad slopes o:
