BR Canal Begun by De Lesseps Will Be Finished by '"Yamkee Doo- dle"'--Horse Show a Success-- Yankee Aristocracy. (Letter correspondence; No. 1,884.) New York, Nov, 27.--Whichever way we turn on the field of Mars, a chance for a new fight awaits us. We ac knowledged the independence of Panama and the republic of Columbia jumps into the ring, and throws down its red hat for a row,and declares that within hali an hour, it 'will kill every American in its domain. But Ger- many, comes forward supporting the new isthmian republic. So; all bail, to the new nation, the day of its final deliverance is here, and we are sure now that the canal, which was begun by De Lesseps, and which proved to be his bete noir, will now be finished by 'Yankee Doodle," and having put our hand to the plough, we will never look back till the canal is done. And now there arises a vision of those splendid nations that shall arise upon the shores of that western land. | hope to see the dream become the grandest revelation of our time. 1 wonder if our people fully comprehend the advance made in the republic of the United States, since President Mc Kinley first took hold of the nation's helm. Our flag, to-day, waves over the Sandwich slands, and the Fijis are knocking for admittance to our door. Following outward to Alaska, and in that which we supposed to be a barren waste, the territory is proving to be one of the brightest gems in the American coronet. We only paid ten millions of dollars for that domain, its gold," its silver, its fisheries and other evidences of great wealth, the amount of which we have taken out in a single year. Manila, rescued from the grasp of the Span- iard, is ours by right of conquest. We have given to Cuba her freedom, and she has realized her dream of indepen- dence, and she is now reported to be asking for statehood in our republic. Porto Rico is ours, and in case of another war, may prove to our na- tion a priceless treasure. One of the most interesting features of the week just passed has been the horse show; it being one of the most satisfactory and delightful exhibits, which all classes, high and low, rich and poor, enjoy. It if with genuine and unqualified satisfaction that have seen it taken out of the hands of 'ockeys and race track touts. It is a pleasure, a genuine pleasure to go into the exhibition. Here one can see the best members of the 400, and Madison Square Garden during 'the week, has been the place where the proudest of aristocracy met. Look at that noble animal, the horse, and there uprises within you a feeling of indignation that any seli-respecting man should ever give birth to the idea that the horse could possibly be ban- ished from his association with man. The horse and the dog are man's truest friends. The horse may not be quite as demonstrative as the dog, but he knows his master and his mistress; he knows, too, who treats, him well, and who treats( him ill. I have oiten heard a little) horse 1 once owned, whinny when 1 opened the stable door. He could tell me by my footsteps, so acute was his sense of hearing, and, as I sat on his back he seemed as glad to carry me as 1 was to ride. No expense was spared to make the present horse show the best that has Tr His Nerves Played Out And Health Broke Down--A Life Saved By The Timely Use of FERROZONE Karl E. Newsome, of Rothesay, wiites : "I owe a debt of gratitude to Ferrozone which saved my life af ter a severe siege of nervous prostra- lion, About a year ago my health gave out completely. I was in such a weak irritable condition that 1 couldn't work, and found that the doctors did nothing for me but take my money. My druggist recommended Ferrozone as the best preparation for nervous troubles, so I commenced at once to take one tablet at meals. Every box of Ferrozone 1 took seem- ed to do me more good than the pre vious one, and it wasn't very long be- fore 1 was strong enough to move around again. In three months I was completely cured, and know that I wouldn't be alive to-day if I hadn't used Ferrozone. It braced up my nerves, gave me a strong healthy con- stitution, and is certainly a marvel lous restorer and tonic for nervous people." " The reason Ferrozone is so success- ful in cuting nervous discase is that it contains the very elements that are needed to restore the wasted herve cells. It is a nourishing, strength giving tonic that costs 50c. per box, containing three weeks' treatment. Six boxes for $2.50. Sold by all drug gists or by mail from The Ferrozone company, mn, Ont. Don't fail mss ever been given in New York. Our first ladies came there alone or attended by their maids, and their treatment was the same as they could expect if they were in their own drawing-rooms. My impression is that the financial result will be more satisfactory than for many a season past. A very fine dis- play of costly costumes were to be seen on our ladies this year, and, in fact, this has come' to be an estab- lished expectation of this fair. I am always gratified when the horse show is announced; you may improve your automobiles' till they reach the highest perfection, or with your flying ma- chines you may skim through the air, as the thunderbolt cleaves the sky, or what wonderiul inventions may come from the marvellous ingenuity of the brain of man, till one hundred miles an hour comes to be considered an ordinary rate of travel, but the horse, the noble horse, whose most perfect creation is found on the Ara- bian sands, shall never leave us, and it is, with great pleasure that 1 am able to record that the present horse exhibition, in the 'year of our Lord, 1903, has never been surpassed, even in the city of Greater New York. The awards are considered to have been both just and generous, and the man- agement said to be beyond all praise, and for general satisfaction, consider ed from every standpoint it is excep tional. Long may it continue so! " By hook or by crook we've caught a Duke, ; And now I'll tell a story." Believe it or mot, as you choose, but we are having classes forced up- on us; not hy their growth from the masses, but by importation from oth- er lands..Jt- seems but yesterday when in our first-class hotels a Chinese gong was rung, and the guests must be up if they wanted any breakfast, at six o'clock in the morning whether they liked it or not. The gong has disappeared and now, a guest can sleep to his heart's content. The gongs may be exhibited in museums, or may have gone back to the Chinese capital, Pekin, to make amends for the treasure we looted during the late unpleasantness. I mention these facts to show our advance in the civiliza- tion of our times. Miss Goelet, who was said to be the richest woman in Christendom, was married to the Duke of Roxburghe, a pleasant young Scotchman, well spok- en of in the tongue of good report, and a real live duke; true, he has no large amount of the world's "filthy lucre," but there is no bar-sinister ac- ross his escutcheon. While drawing up the marriage articles the American lawyer ventured to suggest that it was a pretty heavy dot that the Am- erican girl was bringing to her hus- band; the English lawyer, looking up in amazement, said, "Yes, its true the American girl has some money, but consider the honor we confer upon you." The wedding day finally came, and it was such an affair as New York has seldom seen and was only equall- ed by that of the Duke of Marlbor ough, who led two Americans to that noble estate as duchesses. Many days before the wedding, presents began to pour in to the value of hundreds of dollars; there were two tiaras worth $100,000 and the aggregate was not less than a good round million. E¥ ery new description served to excite our female population to a greater degree and there were thousands of people who would have given a large amount to take & peep at Miss Goe let's treasure-house. Neither she nor Roxburghe's duke are ostentatious ; both wonld have preferred a quict wedding, but society determined oth erwise. Early on the morn of the wedding da) it was evident that something urusual was to take place. All public conveyances were loaded, though admission to the church only by card. A peaceful pageant was going on within the church, but, out side was a revolution that threaten ed to overcome the fifty policemen in charge, so the inspector telephoned for twenty-five more. The crush was tre mendous; beautiful dresses were torn to shatters; lovely Parisian hats were crushed out of all shape; twenty-five more "of the finest" were asked for, and the demand complied with, mak- ing a clean round hundred to control the crowd. The voung - people were married with bell, book and candle, escaping with their lives; in fact, they suffered no severe harm, but such an unruly, riotous, disgraceful mob is seldom seen before a sanctuary, dur ing. a ceremony which should be one of the most solemn events of a life time. = T wonder what our Fnglish cousins thought of us.

ALMOST EQUALLED SHEFPARD ----l 'Swiss Burglar's Sensational Es- cape From Prison. Geneva, Nov. 26.--A modern Sheppard, named Vitali, a native of Verona, has been sentenced to ten years' penal servitude, and an accom plice named Beaudry to two years, by the tribunal at Haute Savoy Vitali was accused of eleven thefts and burglaries, but in all he commit ted fifty-two before being captured Twice he escaped from the police sta tion, and vowed he would never he taken alive, He always carried a load ed revolver and terrorized the inhabi tants of the entire department. The manner of his escape from An necy prison was sensational. With a bar of iron he fabricated a key which opened all the doors of the prison. One day he walked out, and with ths aid of a rope, which he made with bits of string, climbed over the high wall. On gaining entrance to a house he ransacked the place. Nothing came amiss to him--money, bicycles, stock: ings, books, ties, corsets, table nap- kins, stockings, even postage stamps were found in a barn where the burg- lar concealed his booty.

Try them, GINGER DRUNK HABIT OF DRINKING THiS IN: TOXICANT PREVAILS. Will Kill in a Few Years--When Craving For Ginger Has Tak- en Grip on Man Not Even Whiskey Satisfles Him. Nashville, Teon., Nov. 28.~The re cent death of a wountaineer from over indulgence in ginger recalls the fact that, through the south especially, and more than ever in prohibition districts where it is difficult to preeure whiskey, the habit of drinking ginger still ex- ists, That a person may become intoxi- cated on cologne, and that hilarious jags, which often end fatally, may be built up on wood alcohol, are facts which have become generally known. But the use of ginger as an intoxicant only has not been widely advertised. Yet hundreds of persons are victims of the ginger habit, and others still of the cocaine and morphine habits. There are some pharmacies in the smaller towns in the south, and esnec- ially in Georgia, that have a regular ginger costum, composed of people who drink the stuff because they are unable to purchase liquid refreshments of the kind ofiicially known as intoxi- cating. Ginger is made from alcohol and gin: ger root. 'The root is ground and put into a funnel shaped percolator, and the alcohol is poured on it and soaks through to the jar, in the mouth of which is fixed the funnel. The tine ture is as hot as liquid fire, and a teaspoonful is a big dose for an or dinary man. One pound of ginger will make two quarts of tincture. As a man becomes addicted to the habit of drinking it, he can gradually increase the dose, and a cose has been known where a confirmed ginger drunkard thought nothing of taking four ounces (about thirty-two teaspoonfuls) at one drink An embryo attempting such a feat would not live long enough to regret it, He would be stricken with terrible convulsions and would lapse into a comatose state and die without regaining consciousness. Ginger is far more injuriows-- than whiskey and will kill a man who drinks it regularly in two or threg vears. Something of its terrible effect may be conceived when it is known that if a tablespoonful of it were held in a man's mouth a minute the inside coating of the mouth would be blist ered. When the stomach has to grap- ple with two, or maybe three, table spoonfuls of ginger every day the ef fect on that delicate organ can be im agined, A difference between whiskey and gin- ger is that the man who drinks the latter becomes deathly pale, in direct contrast to the rosy hue which the face of the whiskey drinker ussumes, nd itg.glect on a man' i « morals™ is worsb." drinkers soon lose regard of truth and practise deception from choice. They become hypochondriacs, and imagine that they are afilicted with every dis ease under the sun. One might think that as ginger costs more than whiskey the drunkard would prefer the cheaper intoxicant, but the craving for ginger is a distinct taste and cannot~ be sgtisfied by anything but the real article.
