King, the Missionary, Advises Use of Paine’s Celery Compound. ; ‘The noble women who cheerfully sacrifice health ‘and strength to help others can be claimed by no one state or country. ‘They are sisters, whether thetr work ts In Lon- on with Lady Somerset, in New England with Mrs. Livermore or in Arkansas with Miss Carrie A. King. ‘Today the best opportunity for charity work ts Delieved to be at home. The truest missionary ‘work is accomplished im the famillar places among friends and associates. ‘One of the stanchest believers in this method of missionary work is Miss Carte A. King, the well-known leader of charity work in Arkansas. The self-sacrificlng labor of this one woman bas Deen prodigious. She bas done a world cf good. Tt i# not at all strans t her health and strength finally gave way under the ‘strain. For years she suffered from the most distressing form of indigestion; she became weak and nervous and afficted with severe pain. Urged on every band by friends who were associated with her in her work, she tried Paiue’s celery compound. No other remedy could have doze what this did for her. She tells of Its marvelous effect im a letter: “I hed been tronbied for over two years with seme stomach trouble which was pronounced indl- gestion by physfefans. I was often troubled with real colle pains near the left side of the abdomen, and sometimes had severe pains. As time went on I grew worse and the pains were more frequent. ‘There were very few things in the way of dict that did not hurt me, and I oftentimes went hun- sry rather than eat all that I wished and then pain. Besides this my work was such that sed much mental strain and drought on Lervousness. “I vsed medicine almost constantly the secoad year, but experienced very little relief. Finally Paine’s celery compound was recommended, and after taking several doses I felt helped, and rfter using five bottles I had no more trouble with in- digestion or colic, and feel better than I have for three years. 1 can heartily recommend Paine’s celery compound for indigestion, constipation and nervousness." ‘The happy result in the case of this overworked, nerve-tired woman is but one out of many thou- sands in the state of Arkansas alone, both men and women, who have recovered health and vigor ans of this genuine nerve food and regulator, celery compound. fi Or once & month—that's the way we arrange payments mounts ¢3 ended to sult your .

ON TO WEI HAI WEI Tts Capture Regarded as a Foregone Conclusion. : EIGHTEEN THOUSAND WARING Spoils Thus Far Secured by the Japanese. INDIGNITIES TO THE DEAD SAN FRANCISCO, January 23.—The steamer Peru arrived last night from Yo- kohama, bringing the following advices to the Associated Press, dated January 3: “The capture of Wei Hai Wei is now re- guarded as a foregone conclusion, but it may, however, again alter the aspect of affairs. Chinese dignitaries move slowly in their own country, and it is anticipated that Japan will have occupied the naval station near Che Foo before the suitors for peace are ready to leave their own coun- try. The present intention is that the con- ference shall be held at Hiroshima. The fact that Mr. Foster will accompany the Chinese envoys in the capacity of legal ad- viser does not change the opinion of the Japanese with respect to the sincerity of China’s intention, “The Japanese troops in the Laio Tung peninsula are actively preparing for an important expedition, and it is assumed on all sides that Wei Hai Wei will be the ob- ject of attack. The military forces gath- ered for this purpose are of about the samo strength as that. which conquered Talien Wan and Port Arthur. It consists of the first division, known as the Sendai livision. “Reperts from Wei Hai Wei state that not less than 18,000 Chinese are posted in or near the fortifications. Two foreigners, an Englishman and a German,whose names are not published, are said to be superin- tending the defensive operations. ‘The fleet in the harbor has been increa: and it is believed that thirteen ships-of-war and fifteen torpedo boats are anchored there. At least one-half of the vessels are of small size. “Lieut. Gen. Nozu has left Kiulin and ts on hig wey to take personal command of the Japanese forces at and near Hai Cheng. On January 4 he had reached Sui Yen,fro: which place he telegraphed that the C! hese general Sung had reorganized his de- feated army and was cautiously returning in the direction of Hai Cheng. Rumors of movements by Lieut. Gen. Kabuela ar: in circulation, but there ‘s every reason for believing that he remains in Hai Cheng, awaiting Nozu’s arrival. Von Hannckin's scheme for reorganizing the Chinese ermy and providing at short notice a trustworthy force for the defense of Pekin has been set asid> by order of Tsung Li Yang. The reason publicly givan for akandoning it is the alleged depletion of the treasury. Apart from this, it is known that great discontent was created in high milftary quarters by the proposal to confer the chief command on a for- eigner, and that threats of mutiny were growing so loud and frequent as to throw the court inte consternation. Henze the overthrow of the project. Spoils of th jctors. An official statement of the valuable spoils thus far taken from the Chinese has been published by the Japanese #>vern- ment. From this it appears that six hun- dred and seven largo guns have changed ownership. The estimated value of these is 2,000,000 yen. ‘The number of small arms is seven thousand four hundred, worth 30,000 yen; ammunition for large guns, two milion six hundred thousand rounds, worth 3,000,000 yen; ammunition for small arm: enty-seven million rounds; three ships-of-war, one medium and two small, are worth 1,000,000 yen. The most Important of all are the ar- senals, foundries and machinery of every description sccured at Port Arthur and Talienwan. What the value cf these will be to their new possessors cannot be cal- culated From recent reports of Japanese Surgeon eneral Isigaro, the amount and quality of food and clothing supplied to the army is certained. The usual winter clothing ists of the regulation jacket, trousers, ps and shoes, with woolen socks and ast clothes, one blanket, besides under- coi &e. ey have a thick fur head covering, a fur overcoat, with double- lined neck piece and extra flannel undershirt, extra woolen merino draw- ers and long stockings and extra blan- ket, gloves made of thick blanketing, @ stock of paper underwear and a large fur skin, whith may be used cn certain duties, as well as for covering. This dress generally goes to officers of rank. Food and Clothing of the Soldiers. The coolies have no protection, provided with scarcely any pay, but in view of tha increasing cold they have been allowed each a flennel shirt, lined coat and trous- ers, a cotton padded overcoat, a thick flannel head covering, cotton flannel under- shirt and drawers, thick socks and a blan- ket. That the coolies suffer more than the troops is largely due to their improvident habits. They often gamble away their clothing, and, not bemg subject to the rigid discipline of the army, cannot be made to regulate their food and drink properly The supply of food for the soldiers is very Rice 1s the basis. The quantity, ample; a quart and a half of ned rice per day to each man. One- d of a pound of vegetables is added, ments in the form of sulted On rapid and prolonged march- e cannot be prepared in the a y, the troops are perfectly contented to live on gruel made of rice and Indian corn, The commissary is greatly improved after every victory over the Chinese, for large stores of beef and pork are invariably captured. The surgeon gen- eral has obseryed that when on the march and expectant of battle, the arn Ss are cheerfully satisfed with anything that will sustain life. It is only when kept inactive for a long time that their appetites are more exacting. The directors of hospitals in the field state that the wounded almost i ably protest against the use of the bandages made by the emp: and the empress’ dowager at Tokio, and beg that the bandages he hung in honor near their pillows instead. The gratification which these marks of imperial remembrance and favor excite is often thought to stimulate the progress of the invalids toward re- ecvery.

THE CITY POST OFFICE. . 4i Mr. Sayers Yells Why He Thinks the Work Has Been Delayed. The Washington city post office was un- der discussion inthe House today during the pendency -of the sundry civil appro- priation bill. Mr, Ray of New York made @ point of order against the provision of the bill which) provides that the building, when completed, shall be under the super- vision of an army or navy officer. Mr. Ray said that Congress proposes in this bill to provide for the care and supervision of a building that. certainly will not be com- pleted within the next ten years. He sald that he had been four years in Congress, and even when he came here, in the Fifty- second Congress, he found men at work cn the basement of that building. Now, at the expiration of four years, the building has made its appearance above the sur- face of the ground. That is all the pro- gress it has made. At the same rate of progress it will not be completed before there is a change in the administration. Mr. Sayers interrupted him to say that the building will be completed in 1896. Mr. Ray seemed incredulous and asked Mr. Sayers what caused the delay. “I'll tell you what caused the delay.” said Mr. Sayers. ‘It's because three days beforé the last administration went out of office the supervising architect, with the indorse- ment of the Secretary of the Treasury. agreed to give the present contractor three years in which to do work that ought to have heen done in a year and a half,” Mr- Ray asked what is the necessity for the pending provision as to a superintendent. Mr. Cannon of Illinois replied’ to this question and sald it is the intention to put in this building bureaus from other de- partments that now occupy rented quarters, some of which are in a very unfavorable condition. The Houre has a right to pro- vide now for the occupancy of the building. Mr. Hepburn of Iowa thought that the Secretary of the ‘Treasury has a right to appoint the custodian to this building with- vut acticn by Congress. Mr. Ray finally withirew, his point of order and the mat- ter was passed over. ——— TO PROTECT THE SEALS. Representative Dingley’s Bill and the Authority It Gives the President. In response to a letter from the Secretary of the Treasury réceived by Congress, stat- ing that the present rules for the protec- tion of the fur seals were entirely inade- quate, and that the seals would be de- stroyed within three years if not better pro- tected, Representative Dingley introduced a bill in the House today providing that if Great Britain does not consent to.rules for an adequate protection of the seals which will be acceptable to the President of the United States, this government shall pro- ceed at once to the capture of all fur-bear- ing seals and the preservation of their skins. The President is authorized to suspend the execution of the act whenever Great Britain shall unite with this country in adopting regulations that will, in his judg- ment, properly protect the Alaskan seal herds... The motive of this bill is founded in the fact that the United States is at present preserving the seal fisheries chiefly for the benefit of Canadian fishermen, at a great expense to this government, and if the herd of seals is destined to speedy destruction it is better that the hides should be se- cured at once by this government than that time and opportunity should be given to the Canadians to take possession of prop- erty which has cost the United States a great deal of money. Mr. Dingley stated to the House in ex- planation of it that it showed, ‘first, that the Paris regulations for the protection cf the Alaskan seal herds were a flat failure, and instead of protecting these herds bet- ter than before they had really opened them up to extermination by pelagic seal- ers. “This is shown, first, by the fact that notwithstanding the killing of seals cn the islands had been suspended for three sea~ sons, the government lessees during the pest season had been able to obtain searce- ly 16,000 seals, while only a few y: go 100,000 were obtained without any apparent lessening of the herds, and also by the fact that the pelagic sealers, mainly Cana- dian, had been able during the past season to secure nearly 60,000 skins belonging to the Alaskan herd, more than double the number they had previously obtained. What Will Happ: “Now that they have learned how to use Indiaa spearmen, it is certain that the rinety-five sealers now preparing to ¢ upon this business for the next seas Kill more than 100,000 seals, and will exter- miuate the entire Alaskan herds within three, or at the most, five years. Tnis farce ought to stop, for we are really ex- pending more than $200,000 each year to protect the Alaskan 1 herds for the benefit of the Cfnadian pelagic 5 the prcperty interest in these seals of the United States, which is at least $10,000,000, will be wip s something is promptly done.’” Mr. Dingley said thereis but one thing to do, first inform Great Britain of the facts, for she has a great interest in the preser- vation of the seal herds, arising from the fact that nearly all the skins are prepared and dyed in London, and request her to unite at once with us in adopting regula- tions that will effectually protect these herds. Then, if she refuses, authorize the Secretary of the Treasury to immediately kill and secure every seal upon the Alaskan Islands, and sell the skins from time to time and cover the proceeds into the treas- ury. Mr. Dingley said he was glad to learn that the British government has already heen notified of these facts, and of the necessity of immediate action. Mr. Dingley tcday introduced a bill carrying out his ideas. The bill was referred to the ways and means committee. One Was an Unlicensed Liquor Dealer in the District. The President today granted a pardon to John Lewis, convicted in the District of Co- lumbia of keeping an unlicensed bar and sentenced November 26, 1804, to pay a fine of $300, and, in default, to be committed to the work house for 120 days. “This pris- oner,” the President say: as been con- fined for sixty deys for keeping an un- licensed bar.

Cattle Men Will Press for the Entire Repeal of the Tux. Information is received here to the effect that the western cattle men, who are af- fected by the discrimination of foreign countries on account of the one-tenth of a cent discriminating duty on beet sugar, have endeavored to secure the entire re- peal of the sugar tax. It is said that they have been encouraged that they might ac- complish this, even thus late in the session, and that they contemplate sending a rep- resentative to Washington to pr2ss the matter before the ways and means commit- tee. The administration and the ways ani Means committee are alarmed at the pros- pect of a movement of this sort, being as- sured that it cannot succeed, and that it would probably operate to prevent the adoption of even the bill reported from the committee to repeal the one-tenth discrimi- nation duty which the cattle people are very much interested in having repealed. Chairman Wilson said today that he hoped to get this repeal bill before the House for action tomorrow. ee eas: Holloway Lodge. D. P.
