DUBLIN JEWEL ROBBERY THEIR RECOVERY WILL INVOLVE A BIG SCANDAL. The Jewels Which Were Worth $300,000 Were Left Practically Unguarded. The robbery of the Irish regalia from Dutlin Castle still remains an unsolved mystery. A still greater mystery is the fact that they were not stolen long ago, as was brought out at the enquiry into iheir disappearance, The jewels--belonging to the regalia cf the Order of St. Patrick--were worth nearly $300,000, the principal ones were kept in a safe in the 'public room of the office of arms, a room to which anybody calling at the office had ac- cess. The less valuable ones wore kept in a strong room adjoining th. public room. There were two keys to the safe, both kept by Sir Arthur Vicars. Te the strong room there were several keys; nearly every official in the office had one. The safe was made to be placed in the strong room, but when it was delivered at the office it was found to be too large to pass through the door, so it was left in the public room. JEWELS HAD VANISHED. When King Edward was expected in Dublin early last July to install Lord Castletown as a Knight of St. Patrick, Sir Arthur Vicars, Ulster King-of-Arms- and custodian of the jewels, thought it would be well to have the jewels out, to see if they wero all right. He gave the safe key to the office messen- ger, one Stivey (who had been in the place thirty years and whose integrity is not questioned), to get them for him. Stivey went to the safe, bul could not open it. He hed been frying for a minute or {wo when Vicars entered. "Why, the safe is already unlocked!" he exclaimed as he pulled the handle and the door came open. He took out the cases and found that the jewels had vanished, CUSTODIAN CARELESS. This happened on a Saturday morn- ing. : On the preceding Wednesday morning Mrs. Farrell, the janitress, Stivey®ntered the office, reported to .~% she had found the door open--the dow, : ; Tepased $300.1 Re gee in which Folin of Jewels, Suv ey Anformel Sir Arthur Vicars when simpiyRe about noon hut the latter ing ne interd! eq: same on the | t when it was "Is "that so?" show- His conduct was the te hwing Friday morning, the outer dup, «:- ~3parted in Si thel BRIGHT EYES, ROSY CHEEKS. ---- Every Girl Can Have Them by| Keeping Her Blood Rich and Red With Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. In the early days of her womanhood overy girl-no matter what her station in life--should be bright, active, cheer- ful and happy. Her steps should be light, her eye bright and her cheeks rosy with the glow of health. But the reverse is the condition of thousands cl young girls throughout Canada. They drag along, always tired, suffer from headaches, breathless and with ralpitating heart after slight exercise, so that merely to go up stairs is ex- hausting. This is the condition doc- tors call anaemia, which means weak, watery blood. In this condition Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is the only safe and reliable medicine. These pills actu- ally make the new, rich, red blood which can alone give health and strength, and thus make weak, listless, pale-faced girls bright, active and strong. Miss Albina Sit. Andre, Joli- ette, Que., says:--""I am more grateful than I can say for the benefit I have found in the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. 1 was weak, run down and very miserable. I suffered from severe pains in my back-and chest; had a bad cough; no appetite and would lay awake most of the night, and what sleep 1 did get did not refresh me. I tried several re- medies, but they did not help me, and I. as well as my friends, feared I was going into decline. At this stage a friend who came to see me strongly urged me to try Dr. Willlams' Pink Pills, and providentially I acled upon the advice. After using a few boxes my appetite improved and I began to sleep much better at night. This great- ly cheered me and I continued taking the pills for some time longer, when the change in my condition was really marvellous. I was feeling as well as I ever had done. I could sleep sound- Iv at night; the pains and cough had disappeared and I felt an altogether dif- ferent girl. I am so grateful for what Dr Williams' Pink Pills have done for me that I cheerfully give you permis- sion {o publish this in the hope that it may point the way to health to some other weak and despondent girl." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are good for al' diseases due to weak, watery blood.

Count Zeppelin Believes Large Bodies of Troops Can be Safely Car- ried Through the Air. The German Fmperor and his mili tary advisers have resolved to lay the foundations of a German aerial fleet during the present year, Within a few months the German Government will possess five airships which will be available for use in mili- tary operations, and whose value 'n this respecl is rated highly by those who are competent to judge. Count Zeppelin, the inventor of one of the best types of German eirships, firmly believes thai the development of aerial mavigation will enable large bedies of troops 10 be conveyed rapidly and safely through the air. German military ~xperts and other German ae 1y be somewhat sceptical on thio nt, but they are none the less convinced that airships, even in their present form, will be able tc render many valuable services IN CASE. OF WAR. The military aut.worities are also tak- ing measures to protect themselves from the airships of other countries. At the Krupp works at Essen guns of a peculiar type ai now being manu- fuctured, for the purpose of disabling hostile airships manceuvring at a great height. It will be possible to fire these guns cither verticaily ur at an extremely Ligh elevation, and they will be loaded with projectiles of an equally peculiar type, designed to inflict the greatest possible damage on the balloon which supports the hull of ihe hostile airship. Some of the projectiles will have jag- ged chains attached to them, experi- ments. having shown that the best re- sults can thereby be obtained by firing at balloons. Tha Germans possess two systems of wireless telegraphy, which are admir- ably suited for us¢ on airships. The apparatus invented by the German en- ginear, Heinicke, is of comparalively minufe size, both the transmiflling and receiving apparatus being in the same small case, whichi weighs only forty pounds.

Brixton, of 5 Woodworth Ave., St. Thomas, Ont., says: "1 bad had some experience 8s to the efficacy of Zam-Buk in healing sores, cuts, etc., and had heard good reports from friends who also trfed this balm, so when a year ago my little Jad, four years of age, was loft weak in the limbs as the result of a severe attack of influensa, I began rubbing in the Zam-Buk. His legy were so weak he would tremble and shake and was ungble to stand for any length of time, Frequent epplications of this ointment well rubbed in, seemed to strengthen him daily, and in a very short time the shaking and trembling In his limbs had bzen banished and he soon got strong and able to run about, thanks to Zam-Buk."

THE SLEEPING SICKNESS. Appeared Once in Our Hemisphere, Bul Not {o Stay. The sleeping sickness is being stead- ily fought, especially in Uganda, by the Royal Socieiy's commission. In that locality, according to the Medical Re- cord, its ravages have been most tfer- rible. J There a system of segregation has Leen tried, and, costly and difficult as it proves, much importance is attributed to it. There, too, the clearing of the jungle in the neighborhood of canfon- ments, ferries and landing stages is being done as far as possible, but the immense distances are a bar to the clearance of the whole belt infected by the tsetse. A commission is also at work in Cen- {ral Africa, and other invesligations are being carried out by French, Ger- man and Belgian medical expeditions. The postponement of the international conference to consider the problem is perhaps not to be regretted, as no greut discovery was to be reported. The disease is still extending its ravages along the Nile and the Congo. Some traces of it have appeared in Rhodesia. Where it originated is uncertain, but it was first observed on the west coast of Africa. In the nineteen'h century il seems to have become firmly established from Senegambla to the southern lim- ils of the Porluguese possessions. The transportation of negroes to the West Indies carried it across the At- lantic, and it obtained a fooling in Bra- zit and some other parts of South Ameri- ca, but it has apparenlly not been able to maintain a hold in the western hemis- phere, though the fact of ils once hav- ing appeared there is cause for seriou. (By A. Banker.) Probably one of the most magnificent structures ever erected on this earth was the great temple of Diana at Ephesus, the ruins of which were dis- covered not many years ago. And judging from these ruins, and from the fragmentary portions of some of the magnificent columns sent by the discov- erer to the Brilish Museum, London, tha stately fane must indeed have been --with the one possible exception of the temple of Solomon at Jerusalem, gemmed with precious stones, and over- laid with pure gold--the most imposing and the most majestic edifice which the world has ever seen. Each of the su- perb columns, which according to Pliny were sixty feet high, and of which there were & hundred and twenty-seven, is encircied with sumpluous life-size sta- tuary in the most exalied and most re- fined style of Greek art, upon which, up to this present day, the hand ot Time has in some cases made scarce ony impression; and in addition to all this splendid embellishment, the temple was enriched with innumerable statues and other works of art by that great master, Praxiteles, and by other of those illustrious princes of art, whose works have never been equalled, or even scarce approached, by any suc- ceeding generallon in any nalion. But what innumerable scenes of sav agery and of fiendish cruelty were wit- nessed in connection with the worship cf that goddess Diana in whose honor this mighty fane was crecled.
