Syndi cate, P. 0., 1371, New York. The G’-cat Fan; ns. From the ACanta .loo na-. It is difficult to comprehend the extent of the famine which now afflicts India. Ao area of 164,000 square miles, nearly three times the size of Georgia, is filled with population of 36,000,000 a great majority of whom are suffering for want of food and many thousands of whom are actuaUy starving. The famine is spreading and it is probable that it will soon cover 121,000 more sauare miles and I'fflicr an additional population of 44,000,000. The English people have been very active and liberal in their efforts to r-dieve the sufferers. The amount of money subscribed iu England for this purpose will soon have reached $5 000,000. It has been raised by popular sub scription and there nave been many thousand contributors. Relief has been extended to more than 1.500,000 famishing natives and the work is being organized on a larger scale. A number of industries have been started for the express pur pose of giving employment to the famine euff rers. It is said that the afflicted districts will need aid for a year and a half to come. Re cent information indicates that the bubonic plague is neither so general nor so fatal as it was at 6rst reported to be, but it will certainly grow worse with the continuance and spread of the famine. The Indian government is doing; much for the sufferers but the Privilege Tax Killed—Im portant Measures Intro- duted-Mr. Pat.on’s KedistrfcLlng Bill Meets wiih Favor. In the house of representatives yesterday the farmers fought to a finish the battle over doing away with the privilege tax altogether as a source of reve. ue. It was a lively fight, but they finally con cluded r»y a most colic usive vote that the tax could not be aban doned.

This remedy is intended especially for acute throat and lung diseases, such as colds, croup and whooping cough, and it is famous for its cures.
