CRAIG & HARDING, Cor. i3th & F Sts. sion of Li Chang. others declare in unequivocal terms that peace is an impossibility until the flag of the rising sun floats over Pekin. The Mainichi in @ rather philanthropic manner advocates annexing ® part of continen- tal China, not merely for the two usually advanced reasons—viz., to secure the in- dependence of Corea and the maintenance of peace in the east—but for two others— that it would be contrary to the principles of humanity to suffer the Chinese in the it would be regretable in the interests of the Chinese in general if, after the war, they did not have enlightened Japanese near by to instruct them in the arts and sciences of civilization. Effects of Peace on Trade. The effects on Japanese trade of the signing of a treaty of peace are already being discussed. That peace would give an immense impetus, it is asserted, there can be no question, though it has been found that Japan’s trade has not only not suffered the check that was predicted on account of the war, but its total volume in money value in 1894 was very nearly 30 | sey cent over that of the preceding year. in the case of some articles the war has done some injury to the foreign trade, but on the whole it has exercised very little influence. The greatest increase in the export trade of 1894 was in the case of raw silk, of which the value of the quantity sent abroad exceeded that for 1898 by as:much as 11,000,000 yen. A Curious Scheme. An “excellent scheme for the annihilation of the Japanese” submitted by a sage of high repute is reproduced from a Chinese newspaper. The scheme was originated in answer to the proclamation of the govern- or of Nanking, who ordered all those under his jurisdiction to devise some scheme for the destruction ot all the Japanese. The scheme was this: Every soldier should be armed with a sword,*a long bamboo pole and a bucket of water. The pole and the bucket should be held with the left hand, while the sword was grasped with the right. On charging down upon the foe, the buckets should be hurled at the opposing ‘ranks, so as to wet their powder and render their guns useless. The bamboo poles should then be thrust between the legs of the ene- my and given a twist, which would cause the Japanese to topple over in confusion. After that it would be an easy matter to finish off the dripping and prostrate foes with swords. The governor, it appears, did not take kindly to the suggestions made, and, as the story goes, drove thy Pseudo sage from his presence in a fit of fage® Resistance Expected. Eyldently the stoatest resistance which the Japanese expeditionary army as it ad- vances on Pekin will meet, says one of the Jepanese papers, will not be offered by Li Hung Chang's soldiefs, nor by the Manchu- rian troops, but by the Mohammedan sol- diers of China. This was indicated by the conduct of Gen. Tao at the battle of Phyong-yang. He eequitted himself as a true general should, while Yel and the other Chinese generais disgraced themselves by thely pusillanimity.“Gen. Tsao’s conduct at Phyong-yang ari, Admiral Ting’s at Wel-Hai-Wel were, the paper says, the sol- itary bright spo’s in -€hima’s dark record during the war. Tsao. was a patriatch of the Chinese Moh: s, A story has been told that when the effect of Tsao's death reached his native district his wife declared that she would collect some 3,000 Amazons and avenge the death of her hus- band, and that the Mohammedans shared her resolution. + 2+ FINISHED WITH A FEAST, A Pretty Luncheon and Symposium After Launching the Newport News. After the exhilarating sight of the launch ing yesterday at Newport News of the city’s namesake steamer there was an en- joyable lunch on board the Norfolk as she carried the officers of the steamboat com- pany and their guests back across the bay. Mr. Beriah Wilkins acted as toastmaster, and paid a nice compliment to President Clark and the Norfolk and Washington Steamboat Company. Vice President Wood- bury, in a brief speech, thanked all who had made the steamship line a possibility. He said it was purely a Washington enter- prise, supported by Washington capital and Fatronage. “Before our line was established,” said Mr. Woodbury, “05 per cent of the Wash- ington travel to Norfolk, Old Point and contiguous terminals either went by way of Baltimore or by rail. Now it is reversed, and we get it, besides getting our share of the travel east and north of Baltimore, that are en route to Old Point, thereby giving additional business to our hotels, which in time benefits our city. We do not forget Norfolk in our remarks, and wish to say right here that the people of Norfolk have been most loyal to us, and have given us great support, and her business men and shippers we count on as our true friends. “The press, the great power of the coun- try, both of Washirgton and Norfolk, have been on our side, and I have yet to see or hear one word from them but commenda- tory, for which we tender sincere thanks.” Attorney Brown, one of the counsel for the company, made a shert address, and’ General Manager Callahan spoke of the de- tails of the management of the line, and said the new vessel would be the equal of any boat known. Charles G, Elliott, speaking for the city of Norfolk, made a spirited address, and was followed by Mr. S. H. Kauffmann, who earnestly congratulated the company on their achievements and prospects. The guests present drank a hearty toast to the success of the company, and the symposium came to an end as the hawsers whirled landward and the jaunt was done. ———— 2 Affairs in Georgetown. The semi-annual visitation of the officers of the Grand Tent of the District of Co- jumbia to Faith Tent No.31 (female branch) occurred last night. The tent was found in good condition and the officers well up in their work. A handsome Bible was pre- sented to the tent, the gift of Mrs. Myers; also portraits of R. W. Johnson and S. C. Elson. After several ,speeches refresh- ments were served./ rhe grand officers present were G. C. R: ‘A. K. Belt, G. D. R. Wm. Marriott, GS. J. D. Adams, G. L. Geo, King, Grand Lecturer D. Upperman, G. G.

Statistical Association. The status of the labor organizations cf the country was discussed in a paper read by Dr. Joseph Nimmo at the regular monthly meeting of the National Statistical Association, which was held last evening at the Columbian University. After de- scribing the various organizations, Dr. Nimmo alluded to the detrimental influence which arose from the personal rivalries cf the leaders. In his opinion, railroad labor organizations had outlived their usefulness and must give place to the method of direct dealing’ between railroad officers and their employes. He spoke of the recent Chicago strike as a gigantic blackmailing conspir- acy against the corporations and the com- mercial and industrial interests of the coun- try. The paper was discussed by the mem- bers, a number of whom did not agree with the views advanced by Dr. Nimmo. BOSTON PHYSICIANS Indorse Ripans Tabules, the favorite prescription for dyspepsia, constipation, headache, etc. Ripans preferred by physicians because its formula is made public. The well-known prejodice of physicians against patent medicines, whose formula is a secret is too well grounded. The fact that the ingredients of any medicine to be taken internally should be a secret to physicians is of itself a sufficiently sus- picious circumstance to bar it from their daily use. Physicians indorse Ripans Tubules be- cause the manufacturers make no secret of the formula. It is composed of rhubarb, ipecac, pep- permint, aloes, nux vomica and soda, six of the best known remedies in existence. Wonderful progress bas been made by the medl- cal profession within the past decade. ‘The old- fashioned idea that a good medicine had to taste bad to do any good is banished forever and the Dest remedies are now udininistered in more pleas- ant form, Another great improvement is the ad- ministering of medicines in tabule form instead of im the Nquid form, as previously. Among the best known of the latter prescriptions is Ripans, @ combination of the best drugs in the best pro- portion to do the most good in disorders as dyspepsia, indigestion, constipation, heartburn, biliousness, é&c. ‘This Is an age of experimenting. Everybody is experimenting—some with books—steam engines— flying machines—electricity—this is all right—it is progressive. Lots of others are experimenting with their health—this is not right. It leads to {ll bealth—broken down constitution. When you hav. a headache—dyspepsia—const!- pation—biliousuess don't experiment with all the quack medicines you may hear of. Find a good standard remedy about whose for mula there 1s no secret—a formula that your phy- siclam will preseribe—a remedy that everybody uses. Such a remedy is Ripans. ,It is very hard indeed to get regular practicing physicians to express any but a contrary opinion regarding ‘‘seady-made” medicine, and the Ripans Chemical Co. were surprised as well as delighted to find so muny physicians in Boston who were willing to express oplutons regarding the Tabules. Following we print a few of the opinions expressed by the Boston physicians. “I think the combination a good one and very desirable.” Dr. Eliot, Cor. Bichmond and Han- to use them, believing them to be a good thing.” Dr. L. C. Gobron, Salem st. “I think they are a good. combination, especial- ly the ipecac and mux vomica.”” Dr. W. Einstein. “I sball be pleased to try them, believing the formula to be very sensible. Often have eeca- sion to prescribe such ingredients, but differentiy combined." Dr. Rovinsky, Hanover st. “I think them very good and very often pre- scribe a similar remedy in powders. I never heard of @ tablet of the same composition.” Dr. G. 8. Cabill, Chamber st. “I am very much pleased to try them, believ- img them good. I have had occasion to use a for- mula very similar, but aot exactly. I do not care What Js advertised, If it has merit I will back it up." Dr. R. K. Noyes. “I am very familiar with such a formula. It is very much more used in New York than in Boston. ‘There is a quid mixture which is used consid- erably in the Polyclinic Hospital in New York that is the exact formula, but not so convenient to ad- minister. It is a good idea and I believe it will take well with many pbysicians. There is an- other mixture which is very much the same, with the omission of the “I” and the addition of giy- cerlue, used very largely in Roosevelt Hospital, New York.” Dr. Thompson, Green st. “I could never prescribe an article gotten up im that way. If I should prescribe them once my pa- tients would use them at will and when more were required they would know what to ask for.” Dr. O'Shea, Chelsea st., East Boston. regarding ‘Ripans. Now is the time to take Ripans more than at any other time of the year. The blood is clog- ged up and impure. The bowel and stomach and the whole machine of life need clearing out before the hot weather sets in. Ripan's Tab- ules will accomplish this with less inconvenience to the patient and with more safety to his general health than any other preparation in the market. It sells upon the merit of its formula. When you buy Ripans Tabules you know what you are buy- ing.
