Women Should Know ll.

Many women suffer untold agony and
misery because the nature of their dis-
ease is not correctly understood. They
have been led to believe that womb
trouble or female weakness of some
sort is responsible for the many ills
that beset womankind.

Neuralgia, nervousness, headache.
puffy or dark circles under the eyes,
1heumatism, a dragging pain or dull
ache in the back, weakness or hearing,
down sensation, profuse or scanty sup-
ply of urine with strong odor, frequent
desire to pass it with scalding or burn-
ing sensation, sediment in it after
standing in bottle or common glass for
tw enty-four hours, are signs of kidney
and bladder trouble.

The above symptoms are often at—
mibuted by the patient herself, or by
her physician, to female weakness or
womb trouble. Hence, so many fail to
obtain 1elief, because they are treating
not the disease itself, but a reflection
of the pi imaiy cause, which is kidney
trouble.

In fact. women as well as men are
made miserable, with kidney and blad-
der trouble and both need the same
remedy.

Dr. .Kilmcr’s Swamp- Boot, is .the
great discovery of the eminent kidney
and bladder specxahst, and is easy to
get at any drug store for' fifty cents or
one dollar. *

ly free by: mail. Kindly mention Tn]

DEWEY WOULD NOT STOP.

 

l‘he Junta Says Aguinaldo negged
Him to Cease Firing.

WASHINGTON, April 1.——A copy of
the Japanese Times of Feb. 12, publish-
ed at Tokio, has been received here. It
contains an interview with an Ameri-
can name ed Cx,ocker who may be Pro-
fessor Czocker of Columbia college, who
was an eye witness of the first two
days’ fighting about Manila which be—
gan Feb. 5. He indicates that the Fil-
ipinos in the city undoubtedly contem-
plated rising en masse, but failed to
carry out the plan of co— —operation with
those in arms outside the city. He says
if the rebels had destroyed the water
supply of the city it would have entail-
ed great ha1dships upon the Americans
and attributes their failure to do so to
their regard for the well being of the
Filipinos in the city. “During the fight-
ing Aguinaldo, ” says Mr. Crocker ”who
is supposed to be at Malolos, communi-
cated with Dewey. He sent him a mes—
sage ln 11 hich he said, ‘For God‘ 5 sake
stop the firing,’ and disclaiming all re—
sponsibility in connection with the
starting of the trouble. Dewey, howev-
er, refused coiuplian'ce, and I think
Aguinaldo is now decepting the situa—
tion. There was some talk of Aguinaldo
resigning and washing his hands of the
whole affair, but I do not think he will
do so.“ The opinion is that it was not
Aguinaldo who precipitated this thing,
but his followers whom he could not
control. ”

The press reports made no mention at
the time of Aguinaldo’ s appeal to Dew-
ey to stop firing. Mr. 'Crocker left Ma..-
nila while the fighting was still in prog-
ress, and his estimates of the casual—
ties are very wild. He says there were
from 5, 000 to 10, 000 Filipinos killed and
wounded and tells of the terrific de-
structlon wrought by the shells from
our warships. The shells from the Mo-
nadnock, he says, killed “20, 30 and
sometimes 50 natives at a time.”

A copy of the-Japanese Times of the
16th contains a copy of a dispatch re-
ceived by the Filipino junta at Hong—'
kong describing “the unexpected attack
of the Americans upon the Filipino
quarter of Manila." It describes the in-
discriminate slaughter of 1,800 men and
women, old and young without distinc-
tion, and says in‘ viewof the extreme
violence of the Americans the Filipinos
are resolved. to fight to the death. This
communication the Japanese Times re-
gards as a fair sample of the sort of re-
ports with which the junta is attempt~
ing to feed the outside world.

 

 

PRAISE FOR FILIPINOS.

Have Been Led to Think They Could
Externxinate Americans.

WHEELING, April 1. — Lieutenant
William Braunersreuther, executive of-
ficer of the Charleston, whose exploit
in' making the bloodless capture of the
Ladroneislands last summer was told
by himself, writes an interesting letter
from Manila to. Hon. Augustus Pollack
of this city. He is now captain 'of the
port at Manila and has under him some
500 Filipinos Whom he finds easy to
control. Speaking of the native, he
says:

“The native himself, igft to his own
intentions, will never prove troubles
some. They 11 ould be only too willing
to earn a. meager living and get a. few.
dollars. They are not hard to handle at:
all. I employ several hundred in my
department and find no trouble what-
ever, though I have often to work them
at night in docking and undocking ves-
sels. During all the fighting the hun-
dreds in my employ remained loyal and
faithful. I lost only five or six in all,
and these, ,I believe, were frightened off
for fear of subsequent molestation
should the rebels (as they contended
they could do) wipe all the Americans
off the face of the earth.

“Heretofore, when fighting with the
Spaniards, the rebels have been badly
organized and much worse armed. Not-
withstanding this condition, they had
in a. general way a success out of ev-
ery engagement with their natural ene~
mies. Since that time they have been
much better drilled, better armed and
better organized, and they naturally
concluded they could easily succeed in
exterminating the Americans. They
tried it two weeks ago yesterday at 9
p. m. 011, my, what a Surprise! Thou-
sands of them are dead (cremated and
buiied), and the hospitals are filled
with the wounded, many of whom will
never recover. They. have lost in and
about here over 10,000 men. Our loss
has been less than 100 men; to be exact,
08 officers and men killed and 275
wounded. Our wounded people have a
much better chance of recovery than
theirs, as the Mauser ball makes a.
cleaner and smaller wound than do our
Rerningtons and Springfields.”

 

 

Eagun Again Contradictcd.

WASHINGTON, April 1.—-All but two
of the witnesses before the army beef
inquiry court yesterday were members
of the medical staff of the army who
were on service in Cuba during the
Spanish war. The other two witnesses
were Mr. George H. Giddlngs and Gen—
eral-J. Hale Sypher, who had been in-
terested in securing contracts for sup-
plying beef on the hoof and on the block
for the army in- Cuba. They testified
that General Ea‘gan had told them that
the secretary of war had asked him to
give the refrigerated beef 3. trial, while
Mr. Sypher said that General Eagan
had created the impression upon him
that he preferred beef on the block
to refrigerated beef. Their testimony
throughout was contradictory to Gen-
eral Eagan’s testimony.

Provisions For the Indians.

WASHINGTON, April 1.—Commis-
sioner 'of Indian Affairs'Jo’nes has is-
s’ued a formal call for bids for furnish—
ing supplies to the Indian service for
the next fiscal year. Bids will be open-
ed at Chicago until 1 p. m., April 25, for
furnishing beef, flour, bacon, beans,
coffee, sugar, rice, tea and other sub-
sistence articles, boots and shoes, gro-
ceries, crockery, wagons, school and
medical supplies and general miscel—
lany, and at New York until 1 p. 111..
May 23, for blankets, woolén and cotton
goods, clothing, notions, hats and caps.

GENERALS TO TESTIFY.

HAVANA, April 1.——Brigadier General
Ernst was on the point of leaving for
the United States, yesterday, having
been called to Washington to testify
in the army beef investigation, when he
was instructed not to lean e, as it wOuid
not be practicable for both General
Ernst and General Chaffee to be absent
at the same time. The latter expects

 

to sail for the United States on Tuesday ,

next, and General Ernst will remain
until his return, which will probably be
in about three weeks.
. The completion of the overland wire
to Santiago has been delayed by prairie
fires near Placetas. Seven miles of the
line was destroyed. Captain Ricard of
the signal corps was sent to make re-
pairs, and it is expected that the com—
pleted line will be ready for use in the
course of a few days. The mastering
out. of the volunteers removes some effi-
cient signal officers, and the service is
correspondingly crippled. General Gree-
ly, who arrived here yesterday, will
take the matter under special consider-
ation. .

Catching Devilfish Alive and With
the Bare Hands.

 

Yale Student Has Invented a New
Plscaforlu l’usvtlme Which, How-
ever, Will Not Prove a Popu-
lar Success.

 

Devilfis-hing is quite the newest, and:
at the same time the most curious and
exciting, sort of sport, according to the
New York Herald. The ethics of the
game are, first, that you must catch thé
creature alive, and, secondly, that your
sole equipment he a. bathing suit and a
flat bottomed boat. Indeed, one may
do very well at the sport and. leave out'
the bgthing suit. This method: of devil
fishing' 1s a Yankee invention, and was
used for the first time last summer by
Clarence Verrill, a Yale student, on a
visit to the Bermudas, the beautiful
semi-tropical islands of the West In-
dies. A dozen splendid specimens oil
the octopus, or devilfish, which Mr.
Verrill has just presented. to the m'u-
seum of Yale university are the results

‘

. , ,. ,. '

sea spiders measure, from four to’ five
feet from‘tip to tip, and are of a grayish
color. They were. black and larger
when Mr. Verrill caught them, but they
shrink and change color out of water.
Everybody knows what the devilfish'
looks like—a great circle of wriggling
nrms attached to a- small round body.
When you see him making his way in-3
dolcnfly ,along the bottom of the ocean!
under your boat he looks like a huge
spider, and seems just about as un-

as a big tarantula ‘would be in his fa—

trce. The devilfish of the West Indies
are seldom larger than five: feet from tip
to tip, but the natives tell of some very
large ones. that measure eight feet
across. The Degrees of Bermuda. Mr:
Verrill says, regard the octopus with

Hands.) '

great dread and will not go near him.
They would not think of touching one,
even after he had been cang-ht and was
quite dead and harmless' in a big bottle
of. alcohol. They call him the “scuttle”

of waters he frequents. To break up a
native bathing party it is only neces-
sary to say “scuttle” and they will come
scampering to shore.

' The horror that. the devilfish inspires
makes Mr. Verrill’s way of catching
him all fine more interesting for he
goes out. in his boat, waits until he spies
the long, wriggling arms of the octopus
below him, jumps overboard, grabs the
devil of the deep in his arms and brings
him’ in triumph to the surface.

To dive 20 or 30 feet after one of these
ugly creatures—the ugliest thing of its
size that exists—and struggle with the
bare hands against it in its natural ele-
ment is a feat considerably out of the
ordinary. One must dive straight for
the body. and endeavor to grab it from
the top. More often than not the crea-
ture will see you coming through the
water‘and- dodge by paddling away with
its long arms. When the dive is made
from behind ”Mr. Devilfish, out of the
range of. his piercing, bulging ey es, the
chances are good for catching him.

But you must grasp him firmly with
your hands at the thin at near his beak.
otherwise he may slip away. as he will
try to do at fixst. or possibly 11 ill strike
a dangerous blow with his strong beak.
like a bird‘s. which he will try to use as
soon as he finds that. he is caught. Tc
do this. he tries to turn over, and grasp
his opponent with his long. sucking
arms to give him courage. If the diver’s
grip is good. it is now only a question
of rising to the surface and getting into
the boat 11it11 the poor sea de1il.

Wheuhe gets in the boat the "scuttle"
keeps up the fivht. and strikes furio-uslv
at the yvoodvork with his parro o-t like
beak, clutching everything -within
reach with powerful arms, which fasten
themselves'to the sides of) the boat.

Mr. Verrill declares this kind of devil
fishing to be the most exhilarating
sport know“. for there is not only the
excitement of danger, but the combat.
with the honible sensation in feeling
eight cold writhing arms of the grue-
some sea spicer clutching one’s body
and sticking to it in a debath struggle
under the water. °
