WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-General John R. Brooke, commanding the depart. ment of the east, in his annual report for the fiscal year, records the fact that since his last previous report he has vis ited and inspected, with a few excep tions, all the posts in that department. He is gratified at the progress m Lde at 1 all the artillery posts where muaern ar. mament has been installed. The barracks at the infantry and cav alry posts he fonnd inadequate in size and he recommends an enlargement. General Brooke lays great stress upon the desirability of having the lonely and remote southern posts made as comfort able and attractive as possible for their garrisons. The present quarters at these posts, he says, arc cramped, stuffy and generally uninhabitable, and few sol. diers desire to re enlist at these points Dnce they have had a taste of the incon veniences. He renews his former recommenda tion in regard to the possibility, in case f war, of an attack on seacoast de fenses from the land side or the rear, and urges that the approaches from the direction named feceive the attention which their importance demands. In an appended report of the acting signal fficer of the department, Captain L. S. yon, it is recommended that experi ments in wireless telegraphy be con ucted with a view to its use in such barbors as Boston and New York. DAUGHTER ROBS FATHER. South Carolina Wc man Took Money, She Said, For ?afe Keep 'g. SPARTANBURG, S. C., Oct. 12.-Mrs. Ritta Kelly, 35 years of age, was ar. rested at Beaumont Mills yesterday, harged with taking from her father, ohn G. Muller of Glenn Springs, $800 in cash and $900 in notes.

The will had been mutilated, the signatures being cut off. Mrs. Kelly made no denial of the pos ession of the money and the will, on the contrary she declared she had taken he property for safe keeping, as she Ihought the old man was irresponsible. The money was deposited here and Ihe daughter in no way molested after he deposit. rO HEAD OFF THE SCALPERS. Passenger Officials and Exportation Men to Try to Adjust Differences. CHARLESTON, Oct. 12.-Passenger offi :ials of the terminal lines in Charleston met in conference with Chairman Jo. seph Richardson of the Southeastern Passenger association and discussed the anti-scalping law Charleston's legisla. tive body is expected to pass for the ex position period. The exposition rates, already adopt. Ad by the association, will not be an nounced until it is known what council will do with the scalpers. The railroads have asked for a license of $500, with ertain restrictions, and the further re guest is made that the scalpers shall be placed under a $2,000 bond.

LORYEA, Prop. RheumuIRsn Rheumatic pains are the cries of protest and distress from tortured muscles, aching "oints and excited nerves. The blood has ben poisoned by the accumulation of waste matter in the system, and can no longer supply the pure and health sustain ing food they require. The whole system feels the effect of this acid poison; and not until the blood has been purified and brought back to a healthy condition will the aches and pains cease. Mrs. James Kell, of '707 Ninth street, N. E., Washington, D. C.. writes as follows: "A fesi months ago I had an attack of Sciatic Rheuma tism in its worst form. The Sin was so intense that I me completely pros trated. The attack was an unusually severe one, and my condition was regard ed as being very danger ous. I was attended by . one of the most able doc tor in Washington, who is also a member of the fac ulty of a leading medical college here. .He told me tionsan I would get well. After having it filled twelve times without receiving the slightest benefit, I declined to contifiue his treatment any longer. Having heard of S. S. S.(Swift's specificl recomended for Rheumatism. I decided, almost in despair however, to give the medicine a trial, and alter I had taken a few bottles I was able tc hobble around on crutches, and very soon there after had no use for them at all, S. S. S. having cured me sound and well. All the distressing pains have left me, my appetite has returned, and I am happy to be again restored to perfect health. purifier and tonic, is the ideal remedy in all ss rheumatic t r oubles.
