Malaria and Yellow Jack.
(From N. Y. lierald, January 14, lf 2.)
The widow of Dr. I^izeare, who, ia
ll " employ of the tiuveruioent wenC
to Cubs, was inoculated with Yellow
Fever through mosquito bite*, and died
applied to Congress for relief to-day."
The above tells of the sad culmina-
tion of a series of experiments by tb«
Government, all of which proved con-
clusively that the familiar mosquito is a
ilanjerous vehicle for carrying Malaria,
"V Tlow Jack," it nd other malarial fevers.
Those who are exposed to mosquito*
biiuuld take warning. Nature provide*
ii iiTtuiu degree of resistance, which,
when the bodily functions ate in normal
condition, is sufficient to ward off dis-
ease: but if any of the function* are lat-
}linjr, if there is weakness, there is dan-
ger. and partic il. v if the blood is Im-
pure or Impove I there is great dan-
rer. If you I escape, keep ti:*
blood pure and properly nourished with
I>r. llurter's Iron Tonic. That Is ei-
aetly what it does, and has been doing
for the last half-a-ceutury. It is recog-
nized everywhere as the best blood puri*
tier and tonic in use.
Houston. Texas, Aug. 1, 1901.
"I have used Dr. Harter's Iron Ton id
myself, and in my family for twenty-flv*
>ears, aud can heartily recommend It.
I regard it a< particularly valuable to
ward off main rial and other fevers."

nilssiiUH-r of penalonn. will not be s iccceil-
e 1 in office for some time to mnn . If
at all during; the republican administra-
tion.
During the past few week." the repub-
lics members nf the Kansas congresHion-
ai ill i* nation have renewed th«*ir elTorm

1...it toern if- im doubt but what Pn-sident
H iosevelt fully determlni-s m retain the
much bombarded commissioner. This fact
\S.U4 d cldedly evidenced the other day.
when 1 lie Kansas congressmen made their
final plea. The president emphatically d> -
<*l.-i red that only charges -if ;i speeitte na-
ture would be entertained by him against
Mi Kwins administration, and thai amli
would have to be sustained before he
would «ive the matter consideration. An-
other UiinK. the president declared In-
A-.Hild not remuve Mr. ICvans while that
gentleman was under lire.
If the aliened charges mad«- against Mr.
ICvans can be jiroveii. then the presndent
will seek a transfer for him In the dlpol-
matie service or some other office thai
would be of a character of a promotion.
Hi .illzingr that the Unlit against Kuans
must lie fought along tills line, the iiKn-
sas congressmen have enlisted the stiii-
11.rt of the 1 train! Army pension commlt-
III Which has been in Washington for
some weeks ln\< stlgating the administra-
tion of the bureau.
Commander Torn-nee and the members
of the committee have had t talk with
the president and are reported to have
brletllly laid before him their objections
to Air. Kvans. The hostility of the com-
mittee ii. believed b ysome of the op-
ponents oi Kvans to amount to some-
thing. President Roosevelt is giving con-
sideration io the views of officials of ttie
Cram! Army and Is disposed to grant all
reipiestmade by the ortlnulsatlon that
lie considers reasonable and lair.
The K.ins - congressmen are particu-
larly persistent In their efforts to re-
nt. .\e I-'.vans becttiisi' of the undeniable
fact that President McKinl -> promised
to appoint a Kansas man his successor.
Had not the republican politicians and
Hi and Arm> met; of Kansas got into a
tiei.e wrangle over (lie appointment of a
commission* r between Judge S Jt. Peters
ai.d Colonel Dick Blue, Kansas mail

When the commlssionership was offend
to Kansas President MeKlnlvy particular-

matter for an Indefinite time. In th*

to th • Indian appropriation bill to re-
