WHAT HAPPENED ON THE BAJAH

OF SARAWAK.".

THE SECOND MATE'S STORT.. The "Rajan of Sarawak" is one of the best known steamers sailing out of the port of Sin gapore, and, as almost goes without saying, for her name tells as much, her erniss is to that portion of Borneo whore Sir James Brooke, the famona British Rajah, ru'ed in days gone by.

The second mate of this romantically used ressel is Mr. James Konting. He lives on board his ship even when she is in port, so that anyone anxious to obtain confirmation of the facts here set forth will need to address him there. Just simply-Jamos 8. B. Rajah of Sarawak Singapore-that

in all.

"It was two years ago that commenced to get indigestion," said Mr. Koating, "and at the same time, on and off, I used to fool pains in the shoulders and back and also in the Kidneys. The bsok sales were worse when I stooped down. I sould eat very little food just then, and what 1 did eat soomed to do not much good. I always falt a sort of fulness of the stomach, which was very uncomfortable. In addition to these already sufficiently distressing symptoms. I was troubled greatly with constipa tion, and frequently had attacks of billicosness and dizziness, my tongue was furred, my breath was offensive, I always had a nasty bitter taste in my mouth; wind on the stemsch caused me persistent inconvenience

"I tried medicines but they did not help me fet long, so after I had been suffering for about year, through reading of a wonderful care in the newspaper I thought I would give Dr. Williams' Pink Pilla a trial. After taking a few of these pills I felt great relief, so I continued to take them until I had finished three bottles, and by that time I was completely outed. The pains in my kidneys and in my back, and shoulders bad gone, I could eat almost any food, in fact I felt like a new man, I am now 65 years old, yet. I feel on lively as a young man again. I have great faith in Dr. Willems pink pills, they proted mach a wonderful cure to me, and am always recommending them to my friends. You are quite at liberty to make whatever use you please of this testimony. I give it willingly so that it be published for The bonefit of other sufferers."

The feet should never be overlooked that these pills, so highly praised by Mr. Keating, as by the nude of other grateful cared people. all over the world, are no gunok medicine bat, on thebatraxy, raprosent the lifework of a thoroughly qualified and greatly gifted physician-an M.D. of Edinburgh University, Scotland.

THE "INDOMITABLE”. There is reason to believe that the Prines of Wales will travel to Canada for the Terosatan ary Celebrations in the new Dreadnought cruiser "Indomitable" thus rendering the voyage across the Atlantis one of the most remarkable incidents in connection with navigation that has happened for some years past. The In- domitable," is unique in the world's deat unique in her defensive qualities, her gun" power, sud her speed. She is the light footed ister of the Dreadnought, and embodies the same revolutionary features, being construsted on the lines to provide against destruction of mine or torpedoes, driven by turbines and armed on the all-big-gun principle which has boon adopted by the world.

CASTAWAYS.

The Brazilian training ship Henjamin Con stant (2500 tans), which arrived at Yokohama from Honolula on June 3, had on board twenty Japanese from Wake Island. When the sloop was passing near the island on the 20th ultimo, a red flag was descried, Captain Gomes Parein, commander of the training ship, ordered a boat to be lowered, and a rolief party was sent to the island. With considerable diffoalty twenty fear days. When rescued the men were found Japanese were rescued during the succeeding

The Indomitable" is the swiftent, man-of war-apart from torpedo craft in the world Sho was designed for a speed of twotity fire knots, a remarkable rate of travelling to expect from a vessel of such huge dimensions and carrying an armament of devastating power. She has been provided with Parsons marine turbines, similar in design to those which have proved to neceessful in the Dreadnought. She was designed for a borss-power of 41.000 Although all official details are still withheld, it is understood that on the measured mile on the Clyde she actually attained a speed equivaleat to twenty-eigth knots, or about thirty-two land miles. This is the most remarkable result obtained in a largo tarbine propelled ship, and will cause the Hair-Apparent's voyage to Canada to be watched with keen interest. The vessel has exceeded her designed speed on her continuous raas, but by how much is not known. In all the world's fleets, the "Indomitable" stands alone. She combines a higher speed than he been obtained hitherto area in British craisers, with twins the effective big gun fdually run out and lunger faced the adventurers, of foreign battleshipa built prior to the Dread- nought. She brings to bear the same broadsid as the Dreadnought, Her main particulars are as follows

Mr. Kanzaki, of Yokohama, organized a party of twenty man and sent them out to Wake Island by the sailing ship "Yensha Mara". (70 tons) for the purpose of ontsbing albatros.
