H and I sta, PHO Se He : : ‘ Many Women Have Passed Through the Same Experience and With Equally Happy Results. She had once been a beautiful and attractive woman. Her friends adored ber; even admired her. She was still young—but why had her friends deserted her? It is the usual story. Sbe bad lost her health; her complexion had faded; as a result her disposition was soured. How could she attract or bold friends? Impos- sible. . . * . A year later. She is the same woman, but how changed! Hests of friends surround her; her eyes are spark- ling, her chéeks glow; her complexion is super)— she is happy. Do you wonder what male the change? Read, then, the experience of Mrs, Bella Hoffa of Mc- Ewensville, Pa.: “Some six years ago.’ sh2 said, “‘I was troubled severely with disease of the «idneys and I will never be able to tell how much I suffered. I tried all kinds of remedies, but could tind no per- manent relief. Finally I allowed myself to be persuaded by Mrs. Simon Cameron to try Warner's Safe Cure with the assurance that ft would relieve me. She had suffered in the same for many years, and had found great help by its-use. I am heppy to say that Safe Cure benefited me from the time I began using it, I was entirely free from all my pains, and have been in perfect health ever since.

Much Segeiate ree was felt at the Navy Department t by a report from the capital thats mafority of the naval affairs committee ;is disposed to substitute six battle ships tor the three provided for in the pencing naval appropriation bill. This number is supposed to represent about the normal working capacity of the three shipbuilding concerns in this country that are able at present to undertake the con- struction of battle ships. Reports of Foreign Intentions, Not much concern is expressed by offi- cers of the administration over the report- ed intention of Evropean governments, at the instigation of Austria, to intervene be- tween th> United States and Spain in the settlement of the questions. pending be- tween them. So far it can be stated that this has taken no official shape, or at least ro indication of such a design has reach- ed the State Department. What the atti- tude of our goverment would be in case representatiors in that line were addressed to it by the European powers is a ques- tion that the officials naturally do not care to answer in advance. Likewise the sug- gestion that the Spanish government has protested against the sale by Brazil of the two cruisers to the United States fails to cause any tceling of concern. The naval officers hold that there can he no question of the right of the United States to in- crease its navy at any time. Senator Proctor at the State Depart- ment. » Senator Proctor called at the State De- partment about noon today and spent some time In conference with Assistant Secre- tary Day. He appeared to be deeply con- cerned over the sad death of Mrs. Thurs- ton yesterday at Sagua la Grande, Cuba. The President and the Secretary of State have united in sending to Senator ‘Thurs- ten, throuzh Consul Gereral Lee, condo- lences upon the sad event. TO POSTPONE ACTION. Decision of Senate Naval Affairs Com- mittce on Proposed Investigation. The Senate committee on naval affairs had under consideration today the resolu- tion instructing it to make an imvestiga- tion of the Maine disaster, and decided by a vote of 6 to 5 to postpone action for the present. ° ‘This action was preceded by a sharp ex- change of words between the advocates of immediate action and those who think the active investigation should be deferred in order to permit the administration full op- portunity to press its own investigation through the naval board ef inquiry. After the decision was reached not to go on with the inquiry to the extent of summoning witnesses, it was suggested that steps should be taken by the committee to se- cure from the Navy Department all the in- formation in its possession, and this sug- gestion was adopted. It is undersicod that the postponement was secured by Senator McHnery’s joining with the majority’ of the republicans, and that Senator Chaniiler Voted with the oppo- sition for immediate 4nd independent in- qviry. Cee SOUTH CAROLINA'S OFFER. Her pple Re¢ndy! to Shed Their Blood for the Stars and Stripes. Representative Stokes of South Carolina today presented to President McKinley the patriotic offer of Brigadier General Joseph L. Stoppelbein, commanding the 1st Brigade of South Carolina Cavalry, in a letter to Representative Stokes, showing the feeling of the soldiers of that state. It is as. fol- lows: “I have read your speech, made. in Con- gress, in advocating the fifty million dolla appropriation, and I desire to say that you have voiced the sentiments of your constit- uents, The people of South Carolina stand ready and willing to shed their blood in de- fense of the stars and stripes, and if ever our people were united they are today. We know no factional or party lines when the honor of our country is at stake.” General Stoppelbein commands thé largest body of volunteer cavalry in the United States. He formally tenders this body of ready fighters. General Stoppelbein concludes his letter by saying: “The people of South Carolina have implicit confidence in the wisdom of the President at this critical moment and feel that he will do the proper thing.” RULES FOR RECRUITING OFFICERS. Circular Issucd by Adjutant General Corbin — Adjt. Gen. Corbin bas issued a circular prescribing the following rules for the gov- ernment of the recruiting servic Until further orders, all desirable appli- cants for the artillery, heavy or light, wh’ present themselves at a military post and pass the required examination, will be en- lusted by the post recruiting officer and held subject to assignment from the ad- jutant general's office. Z Recruits for the artillery should be young, active men of a good degree of in- telligence, and a considerable proportion of those enlisted for the heavy artillery should, in additicn, possess a fair know!- edge of arithmetic. Commanding cfficers of posts who re- ceive no special instructions in the matter will telegraph to the adjutant general of the army whenever there are two or more artillery recruits at a post available for assignment, designating the number for heavy artillery and light artillery, sep- arately. Recruiting for other arms at all stations will be limited to the enlistment or re-en- Ustment, of exceptiorally desirable men who fulfill all requirements, whether re- cxuits or former sodiers. Hereafter post commanders will indicate in their reports to this office the total en- Listed strength, not only of companies con- cerned, but also of the remaining portion of the same regiment at the post. Paragraphs 4 to 7, Circular Letter, Sep- tember 28, 1897, from this office, are not designed to provide for the filing from city stations of vacanctes in regiments untii they occur, nor of stch actual vacancies a3 can probably be filled by local enlistments. When special authority is requested, for any cause, for the enlfstment or re-enlist- ment for an orgahization at the post from which the application 4s forwarded, it will be stated whether or ot there is an ac- tual vacancy therein for the applicant, and also whether the” enlistment can be made without causing en excess in the Proper enlisted strength of that portion of the regiment corcerred stationed at the pest. A man who applies to re-enter the army after an interval of “more than three months from date of discharge must sign the declaration of, recruit, and if accepted and duly xworn his enlistment paper muat bear the date on' which the enlistment is completed by administering the oath.. A. R. 835 prohibits the:antedating of enlistment papers in such cases. , IMPRESSIVE’ SERVICE. ea ae High Mass of Requiem Participated in yy Distinguished Clergy.
