Fast, safe, superbly equipped and most carefully governed, one need not wonder at the great popularity of the New York Central. No other line affords such fa­ cilities for through travel between the East and the West as this wonderful four-track system. In the possession of Grand Central Station, located in the heart of New York City, and within trifling distances of all first-class hotels, this railway offers greater advantages than competing lines. Spring, summer, autumn and winter, it has attractions ir­ resistible. The great Northern Wilder­ ness, the playground of the State, now beckons its thousands. As autumn falls, America's aeenic masterpiece, far-famed Niagara, will claim its annual host of pilgrims with its majestic power, the fierce turmoil of the Whirlpool and all the picturesque surroundings, the awe­ some Cave of the Winds and the several other minor attractions of the vicinity. And when winter comes, then the entire scene transformed to what seems a fairy­ land of marvelous frost dressings, of icy forts and snowy palaces; of gleaming, crystal prison barriers vainly striving to bind the roaring, foaming plunge of water --will present a spectacle of weird, mys­ terious beauty which is not duplicated in the world.--Outing.

The address of welcome on behalf of the State was delivered by Gov. Gage, Mayor Eaton tendered the hospitality and free­ dom of the municipality and superinten­ dent of instruction and spoke on behalf of tHe educational interests. The Newman disaster cast a gloom over the delegates and much sympathy was expressed for the injured and the families of the dead. All during the night and early morning liours section after section rolled into the city until the attendance was estimated at 10,000. The opening session was called to order by F. Q. Storey of the local executive committee. The pavilion was crowded in every part and a large number of the vis­ itors failed to gain admittance. After an invocation by Rev. C. Clark Pierce the Woman's orchestra rendered the National Educational Association march, a rather unique piece of music composed for the occasion. Gov. Henry T. Gage was pre­ sented and bade the delegates a hearty welcome in behalf of the State. State Superintendent of Public Instruc­ tion Kirk in behalf of the educational in­ terests of the State followed. He told of the growth of secondary and higher education in California. Including pro- fessioual colleges located in San Fran­ cisco, the State university has now a tott^ enrollment of 2.438. In 1880 there were but sixty-two high schools in the State, but to-day there are 125 and with increase of nutnbers the standard of work has been raised. Dr. Elmer E. Brown of the University of California on behalf of the manage­ ment also welcomed the visiting educa­ tors, and then Mayor Eaton, on behatf of the municipality, told the visitors they had the freedom of the city during their Stay. On behalf of the city schools Sup­ erintendent Forshay outlined the educa­ tional system there and paid tribute to the educators in charge of the 28,000 chil­ dren.

At the closing session of the national council of education Prof. Louis Soldau of St. I4>uis was elected president for the following year; Prof. Elmer Brown of California, vice-president, and Miss Belle A. Dutton of Cleveland, Ohio, re-elected secretary. At the annual meeting of the board of directors of the National Educational As­ sociation the treasurer's report showed a total aiaount during the year of $28,- 5(51.10, including a cash balance of <52,- 201.

RAINY SEASON IS Oft American Soldier* Fighting Ele­ ments in the Philippines. It has been raining and storming about Manila and the country along the Amer­ ican south and Bay lines is literally flood­ ed. The soldiers are suffering great dis­ comfort. The Thirteenth infantry regiment at Pasay is in the worst position, being prac­ tically surrounded by water. The bridges that were nsed for getting supplies have been washed away, and some of tlie com­ panies are now separated by streams six feet deep. In many cases the men are sleeping with three feet of water beneath their bunks, which are elevated on crack­ er boxes. The company cooks, when pre­ paring their meals, stand knee deep in water. Some of the roads leading to Pasay are simply impassable, and the rice fields on all sides are one great lake. A high wind blew over several tents of the Second reserve hospital.

Secretary of War Said to Have 1 ciM to Qait the Cabinet. Washington fdispatches on Wednesday asserted that the resignation of Secretary of War Russell A. Alger was in the hands of President McKinley, but that the fact would not be made public tor some weeks. Several different reasons are snraiised for this move of Secretary Alger, the principal one remarked by poli­ ticians being the combined action brought to bear upon President McKinley by lead­ ing Republicans to ask for the resignation of Secretary of War Alger ever sinoe the formal announcement of the Alger-Pin- gree ailianoe and the latter's denuncia­ tion of President McKinley. Secretiwry Alger denied the report that he is to resign. WThen told of the rumor that he had tendered his resignation he said: "I have received no direct or indi­ rect intimafion from the President that he desires me to leave the cabinet. 1 have noticed no treatment that makes my position personally or officially uncom­ fortable. I have caused no third party to learn for me if it would be acceptable that I retire later on, and, furthermore, there is .nothing to warrant the assertion that I am to retire." One reason given by friends of Secre­ tary Alger for dating his resignation so far ahead is that he is anxious to sign the full report of the war in Congress in De­ cember. It is said that in the event the President is willing to retain him until that time, Secretary Alger will go on a long vacation and the President will con­ duct the affairs of the office himself. FRANCE IS HORRIFIED. Report* of Dreyfua' Tnrturea Aronaea Intense Indignation. A special cable to the Chicago Tribune says: The abominations practiced against Capt. Dreyfus continue to horrify all France. After Col. Pi<#uart had warned Gen. Billot that Dreyfus was innocent, the pr»oner was kept in fenced quarters less than twenty inches. The fence was so high that a view was imposisble and it was barely light inside. Here the miser­ able man passed many days and w.as often seized with violent attacks of suf­ focation. Each time this occurred his guardians would say that this time they hoped he was dead. Finally the attacks continued so frequently that the military doctor ordered air to be admitted. To avoid giving Dreyfus pleasure by lower­ ing the height of the fence his jailers raised it a foot from the ground, saying the air would cool his feet. Dreyfus still carefully avoids talking of his children. The prison guardians find that'Dreyfus eats little, as his stomach revolts at food. He has been so injured by abuse and quinine in the tropics that orders have been given that he have in­ valid's fare. X9otes of Current Bventa, Charles Harvey, 88, North Lewisburg, Ohio, drowned.

I was very sick for nearly a year with hysteria, was down­ hearted and nervous; also suffered with painful mens* truation and path in back and limbs. - I often wished for death, thinking nothing would cure me. I had doctors, but their medicines did me no good. At last, by the advice of a friend, I be­ gan to take Lydia E.

Thanking you for the good your medicine has done me, I am sending you my testimonial, hoping it will help others."

PINKHAM-- I gladly give, you my testimonial in favor of your remedies. When I first commenced your treatment I had been suffering from female troubles and weakness for some time. Menses were irregular, coming too of­ ten, and were very pain­ ful. I could not walk a great distance, had those terrible bearing-down feeling in the lower part of bowelsr backache, and pain in left ovary. I used five bottles of Lydia G. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and my menses have become regular, and am cured of that bearing-down feeling after walking. I consider your Com­ pound one of the best medicines there is for those complaints pecu­ liar to women. I thank you for the good advice you gave me. I will gladly recommend your medicine, and hope that every one who" suffers as I did will give it a trial." To sacrifice beauty, disposition and health to a false idea is folly.

Mrs, Van Otoft Advises Womatfk "DEAR MRS. PINKHAM--For several years my health was miserable. I suffered the most dreadful pains, and was almost on the verge of insanity. I consulted one of the best physi­ cians in New York, and he pronouncfed my disease a fibroid . tumor, advising an operation without delay, saying that it was my only chance for life. Other doctors prescribed strong and violent medicine, and one said I was incurable, another told me my only salvation was galvanic batteries, which I tried; but nothing relieved me. One day a friend called and begged me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I began its-use and took several bottles. From the very first bottle), there was a wonderful change for the better.
