The Real Author of the Rague Conference.

The death of M. de Bloeh is announced from Warsaw. He in y be regarded aa the real author of the Hague Conference, and his demise will excite general regret, Mdc Blochwas a Polish Jew who bsd amassed a considerable fortune, and who for some years had devoted himself to eociai and philanthropic questions It wit in pursuit of these ideas that he wattled to devote special consideration of the effect of modern arms of precision, and in his great book, ' The War of «he Foture, 1 h« argued that their effect would be 80 destructive that they would make war terrible beyond all description, and Intha end render it Impossible. The Transvaal war, especially in ita earlier stages, seemed to justify some of his theories* bun aB men learned to combat or circumvent! the action of modern weapons, their effects became less deadly than he anticipated. His great book attracted the attention of the Uzar, who read it, and was deeply impressed. It had a great influence on leading the Russian ruler to propose the Hague Con ference, and it has been much discussed by military men on the Continent, Last summer M de Bloch lectured od the effects of modern weapons before the United Service Institution, and his opinions were discussed with great respect.

How a Racehorse Was Carried.

The atesmer Minnehaha, of the At lantic Transport Line, lately arrived in the Thames from New York, having on board the valuable racing colt Nas turtium, and another valuable colt oat of Peg Wofington, belonging to Mr WO Whitney. It is an open secret, cays the Central News, that Nastur tium, which cost Mr Whitney £10,000, has been brought over to this country specially to win the Derby, and ac cordingly the most elaborate arrange ments were made on the, Minnehaha to ensure the safety of the animal on the voyage. The colt was given into the personal charge of Mr H Wood, the horse foreman of the Atlantic Trans port Line, who had specially con structed two large and commodious etablea on the steamer—one for Nas turtium and the other for the Peg Wofingtonxolt, Each of the stfrbles v?as 17 feet 6 inches in length, 8 feet in width, and thickly padded from top to bottom. All the be»mß were simi larly treated, and a theimometer wu placed ia both sUbleg so that the tem perature could be tiken every hour. Between the stables were placed « couple of births with a porthole looking into, each, in order that the two atten dants might »lways have the colts under their observation. Tha stables were whitewashed and disinfected twiceadsy, and m»ny other precautions w«r« fcakea to «asure the Itorsea being landed io perfect health. The voj 6ge across was extremely rough, but notwithstanding this disadvantage neither anitral showed the slightest bigo of fatigue, and both briskly walk ed about their boxes every day. They have arrived in the Thames in quite as tit condition as when they left New York,

WHAT IS PAIN BALM? Chamberlain's Pain Balm is a liniment arid, while adapted to all the ordinary uses of a liniment, has qualities which distiguish it from other remedies of this class, Pain Balm is especially beneficial for rheama ti;,ui. Thousands of casea can be cited in which it has effected a cure when the auiferer had previously tried best medical service without aecaring relief. Pain Balm is positively guaranteed to give relief In the most severe casea of chronic or acute rheumatism, Pain Balm heals braises, burns and scalds in less time than any other treat ment. It is * antiseptic,' that is, ife prevents putrefaction and by so doing, generally prevents an ungainly scar remaining after the injury is healed* Fo lame back, lumbago and neuralgia, Pain Balm has no equal. It baa the quality of k getting to the right spot.' No auffereir from thss9 distressing affections should defer a trial of this remedy. One APPLI CATION gives relief.
