Dr. Werteabaker, of the Marine Hospital, Makes an Investigation. Dr. Wertenbaker, in obedience to iuitructions from the Surgeon General of the United States Marine Hospital service, visited unariotte, a. u, on the lltb and investigated the nature of certain cases of sickness supposed to be smallpox! now in the pest boaee-on the outskirts of that city. His report to the Hon. E. B. Springs, mayor, is as follows: Accompanied by Dra. Strong and Wilder, I this morning visited the pest house of your dty and found .therein nine persons, all jolored, four of whom are suffering with smallpox, the other live having been exposed to the disease and k^e now detained, awaiting developments, and are employed in nursing the sick. The following named persons are suffering from the disease: Bailie Wagner, Oscar Jackson, Prank Jackson and Harvey Perkins. B&llie Wagner and Oscar Jackson are recovering, both having had a light attact of the disease. Frank Jackson, aged 4 years, is a son of the case that died with smallpox recently. Prank developed the ernptlonjm Wednesday Last, and has a very slight attack. In the eases of Sally Wagner. Oscar Jackson and Prank Jackson the disease has been modified by vaccination. Harvey Perkins, aged 57, nativity North Carolina, developed the eruption la>t Monday morning at Seal's camp, twelve miles north of Mooresvilie, on the Mocksvilleextension of the Southern Hallway. He had some lrom Greenville and arrived at the samp on 8unday evening and slept with some af the employes on Sunday night. On awakBuing Monday moAlng he noticed that he was broken oat with the eruption. He left the camp quietly, without mentioning the sruption to anyone, fend made his way to Charlotte, arri ring yesterday afternoon, February 10th. 1898 He is now in the fifth day of the eruption, and his case is typical. I hare the honor to remain, Respectfully yours, C. P. WurrurBixu, Passed Assistant Surgeon U. S. Marine Hospital Service. Dr. Wertenbaker says further: "The danger to the city lies in the possibilities ot the disease being imported from elsewhere, and finding unprotected persons here, may claim new victims, and establish new foci of infection. As to the methods of prevention of smallpox there are only two practicable: "One is io prevent its introduction, and the other is to give it no material to feed on. With the number of cases of smallpox at present scattered through the Southern States, it iAiot practicable to prevent its oomiug into this city. So the ouly other alternative is to be prepared, and leave no person in the city who is unprotected, to become a victim." Donble Appropriation Recommended. The Senate committee on appropriations has completed consideration of the'fortification appropriation bilL The committee recommended increases which double the figures of the bill as it passed the House. The total amount carried by the bill as agreed upon, is a little over *9,052,494. Gift From Mrs. Garfield. Hon. H. Si.

Very Serious State of Affairs. The War Department, at Washington, has made public the advices received from Capt. P. H. Bay. of the Eighth Infantry, who was 'sent to Alaska tJJT-eport on conditions in the mining country. The reports embrace a period running from October 3d to November 3d, and are dated from Circle City and Fort Yukon. They show a very serious state of affairs; that trouble is threatened at various places and there is danger at some points of lack of food, owing in a large measuie to the transportation companies. } ^^^^HFcONGRESS.

In the Senate Frye, of ^^^^rchairman of the committee on { ^^^perce, reported a House bill, Hroorizing the Secretary of the rfrea8ury either to purchase or have constructed a suitable revenue cutter, for use on the Yukon river, Alaska, at I a cost not to exceed $40,000. It was passed. In the executive session Senator Teller, of Colorado, occupied about four hours in discussing the Hawaiian annexatii n treaty. Reed denied that he had changed his mind. S?th Day.? In the Senate strong Cuban resolutions were introduced. Cannon wanted the United States to serve notice on Spam to withdraw her forces from Cuba and give that Eepub| lie liberty. Mason's resolution calls I upon the President to notify Spain that the war must at once cease, and that the United States declare and maintain peace on the Island. Allen wanted the belligerency of the insurgents recognized. 37th Day.?For more than three hours the Senate chamber rang with eloquent appeals in behalf of the Cuban insurgents. Cannon, of Utah, and Mason, of Illinois, beiug the principal speakers. Mason in his remarks, urged the President to take immediate action, and Cannon spoke in support of his resolution introduced the day before to give Spain until March 4th to stop the war. Hale made a cool-headed speech and had the resolution referred. Butler, of North Carolina, presented an amendment to the constitution, enabling Congress to levy and collect an income tax. 38th Day.?During the entire session of the Senate, the Indian appropriation bill was under discussion. The reading of the bill was completed, and all of the committee's amendments of a minor character were attached to the measure. Allen, of Nebraska, enlivened the proceedings a few minntes before adjournment by making an attack npon Speaker Reod. Gen. William Booth, of London, England, founder of the Salvation Army officiated as chaplain at the opening session today. Mr. and Mrs. Booth Tucker, the son-in-law and daughter of General Booth, were in the gallery during the prayer.

The bill carries nearly 18,000,000. Allen, of Nebraska, introduced a resolution directing the committee on foreign relations to inquire whether the yacht Buccaneer, owned by Wm. R.

THE HOUSE. 5jyth l?at. ? ine noase aeu uuder consideration the biU making appropriations for fortifications and coast defences. Little interest seemed to be manifested in the proceedings, less than one-half of the members being present daring the session. The bill was passed carrying $4,144,912 against 99,517,141 last year. 40th Day.?In the Hoase there was more debate oh the question of prosperity. The military academy appropriation bill was passed. The bill carries 9453,540, being $26.Cw2 less than the amount carried by the current law. 41st Day.?The House entered upon the consideration of the Aldrich-Plowman contested election case, from the fourth Alabama district. The majority of the committee reported in favor of seating the Republican contestant, on the ground of conspiracy, an allegation vigorously denied by the minority. Mr. Plowman's plurality, on the face of the returns, was 2,957, The majority revised the figures so as to give Aldrich a plurality 01 o*z. inuring uie eariy part of the session the Senate amendments to the agricultural bill were disagreed to, and the bill was sent to conference. 42d Dat. ?The House by a vote of 143 to 112 unceated Plowman (Pern.) of Alabama, and gave the seat to Aldrich (Hep.) A special deficiency appropriation bill was passed carrying $200,000 for the payment of jurors' fees in the United States Courts, and $175,000 for witness fees. During the debate bn the contested election case of Plowman vs. Aldrich, Linney said the negroes in the South were steadfast in their loyalty to the Republican ticket "As well expect to be able to shoot off the horns of the moon with a pop-gun," said he, "as to make a Southern negro voluntarily vote the Democratic ticket" 43d Dat. ?The House was in a very bad temper, and the whole session was consumed in filibustering against two bills of minor importanoe, and the other to make Rockport, Me., a subport of entry. Neither got further than engrossment aed third reading. Roll iall followed roll call all day long, and partisan feeling reached a high pitch. Finally, when it became evident that no progress could be made with the bills presented, an adjournment was taken until Monday. Agreed On $0,000. An Asherille (N. C.) special says.

A Beautiful Girl's Affliction. s VFroijithiMfpiublican, Versailles, Jni The Tasters bC. Versailles, lad., like all fond parents, are completely wrapped ap In their children. Their daughter Lucy, In particular, has given them much concern. She is fifteen, and from a strong, healthy girl, three years ago, had become weak and kept falling off in flesh. until she became a mere skeleton. She seemed to have no life at all. Her blood became impure and finally she became the victim of nervous prostration. Doctors did not help her. Most of the time she was confined to bed. was very nervous and irritable, and seemed on the verge of 8t. Vitus' dance. "One morning," said Mrs. Tucker, "the doctor told usto give her Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, which he brought with him. He said he was treating a similar case with these pills and they were curing the patient. We began giving the pills and the next day could see a change for the better. a i? Discussed Their Daughter's Case for Hours. The doctor came and was surprised to see such an improvement. He told us to keep giving her the medicine. We gave her one pill after each meal until eight boxes had been used when ahe was well. She has not been sick since, and we have no fear of the old trouble returning. We think the cure almost miraculous." Fbaxk Tucker. Mas. Fba.nk Tucker. Subscribed and sworn to beforo me this 38th day of April, 1897. Hugh Johxsox, Justice of the Peace.

Flower* Answered Both Purposes. A certain young widow of Indianapolis who had Just changed her weeds for brighter hues gave a dinner party not long ago. The rooms were decorI ated with a great profusion of flowers. Roses In masses were on the mantels and the dinner table fairly blossomed?in fact, the abundance of flowers was unusual. One of the guests could restrain her curiosity no longer, and when the dessert was brought in said: "Well. Mrs. Blank, you're rather spreading on the flowers to-night." "Yes," replied the fair widow brightly, "but to-morrow I am going to take them out to Crown Hill and put them on poor Tom's grave."
