Visit Washington. Every patriotic American at some time or other is anxious to visit Wash- ington and enjoy the sights to be seen at the National Capital. Some persons may consider it a duty to make the trip and be able to say they have stood beneath the dome of the Nation’s Cap- itol I and visited the various depart- ments of a government which is to-day foremost in‘ progress and enlighten- ment. , The public edifices at Washington command the admiration of the .world. The Capitol, Executive Mansion, Con— gressional Library, Department of State Navy and War Departments, U. S. Treasury and Patent Office, and De- partment of Agriculture, teem with in- structive interest. The Botanical Gar- den, Smithsonian Institute and Muse— um, U. S. Navy Yard, Marine Barracks, U. S. Arsenal and numerous attractive squares afford ample scope for sight- seeing. Men prominent iu the affairs of the Nat-ion are daily met on the beautiful streets of Washington, or in various departments of the Federal Government. No where in the world is there opportunity for seeing so many men of mark whose names are familiar to newspaper readers as at the Nation— al Capital. The privilege of passing ten days at Washington is offered all travelers over the Pennsylvania railroadés hand- somely equipped line. and full information will be furnished by Agent Harris at the depot.- ——————<m>———————— A Thousand Tongues Could not express the rapture of Annie E. Springer, of 1125 Howard St., Philadelphia, Pa., when she foundthat Dr. King’s New Discovery for Con- sumption had completely cured her of a; hacking cough that for many years had made life a burden. All other medicines and doctors could give her no help, but she says of this Royal Cure—“it soon removed the pain in my chest and 1 can now sleep soundly, something I can scarcely remember doing before. I feel like sounding lts praises throughout the Universe.” So will everyone who tries Dr. King’s New Discovery for any trouble of the Throat, Chest or Lungs. Price 50c and $100.

Norwalk’s Woman’s Exchange is the most flourishing organization of that kind ln the state. The ofiicers of the county fair asso- ciations are busily engaged in securing war heroes for the approaching season Norwalk was visited by several bands of Indians last night. They were fine specimens of Americans and behaved themselves just as well as their pale face brothers. —————-——_‘..O>‘_"—‘ He Fooled The Surgeons. All doctors told Renick Hamilton, of West J etferson, 0., after suffering 18 months from Rectal Fistula, he would die unless a. costly operation was per- formed; but he cured himself with five boxesBucklen’sArnica Salve the surest Pile cure on Earth, and the best Salve in the World 25 cents a box.

The darkest hour in the history of any young man is when he sits down to study how to. get money without honestly earning it, is just as true, to- day, as when Horace Greeley first ut- tered it.—New Haven Union. It‘ is said of those Greenport. L. I. , girls, who have agreed to boycott young men who drink, that the maid- ens want to make sure, when a young man pours out his tale of love, that he is inspired by ardent affection and not by ardent spirits.—Meriden Jour- nal. Croker turned his back contempt- uously on the Lexow investigators and went oil“ to Furope.’ Does he think things more serious 'now than they were then? In it perhaps a conscious- Tickets can be ' secured at the South Norwalk station,: ’ $50 and $100 denominations, ness of Governor Theodore Roosevelt’s attentive interest in the present pro- ceedings that is troubling bluff—Hart- ford Courant. ’ It is inconceivable that there should be war between the United States and Germany on account of Samoa. Such a war would be more than a misfortune; it would be a crime. The ties of amity and kinship that bind the two nations together are worth more in a day than the whole Samoan group is worth in a Century—Chicago Tribune. The Connecticut committee on agri- culture has reported a bill punishing with a fine of not more than $7 and costs any person who shall “pull up, tear up, dig up or destroy any roots of trailing arbutus on the land of another.” The legislature might be in worse busi- ness than protesting against wanton waste of this delightful harbinger of spring—Boston Transcript. Four citizens of Danbury were arrest- ed a few days ago for neglecting to keep their children in school as required by law. They were fined $5 each and kept in jail until the fine was paid. Danbul'y is the city that cast the largest vote in the state against the proposition to re- quire voters to be able to'read the Eng- lish language—New Haven Palladium. N orwalk religious circles are stirred up over the developments in the First Baptist church there. The society has extended a call to the Rev. DeWitt Talmage Van Doren, to become its per- manent pastor, and the minister has ac- cepted. Simultaneously with his ac- ceptance, Judge Perry, president of the executive board, and other members, tendered their resignatiOns' on the ground that Mr. Van Doren isn’t suffi- ciently orthodox. The local papers are printing voluminous communications on the subject, from the brethren, and considerable ill feeling is likely to be the upshot of the affair. No statement of Pastor Van Doren's unorthodox views have as yet been given to the public, unless that construction can be placed upon his reported injunction to the society, to the effect that he hoped he would receive his salary weekly, as he desired to pay his own debts prompt- ly. It is not to be assumed, however, that this frank utterance is considered a suliicient ground for a charge of heresy in Norwalk—New Haven Pal- ladium. «M Spain’s Greatest Need. Mr. R. P. Olivia, of Barcelona, Spain, spends his winters at Aiken, S. C. .VVeak nerves had caused severe pains in the back of his head. On using Electric Bitters, America’s greatest Blood and Nerve Remedy, all pain soon left him. He says this grand medicine is what his ecuntry needs. All America knows that it cures liver and kidney trouble, purifies the blood,’ tones up the stomach strengthens the nerves, puts vim, vigor and new life in- to every muscle, nerve and organ of the body.

YVASHINGTON, April 21— Secret service men have given out the details of the plans of the band of counterfeit- ers captured in Philadelphia and Lan— caster, Pa., this week. Had their scheme been successful they Would have put $10,000,000 worth of bogus bills into cir- culation. These notes were to be printed in $20, on paper prepared by the hand. Then a trusted official in the subtreasury in Philadel- phia was to be bribed to take the entire issue and give good bills in return. After that the government itself was to float the counterfeits. The work done on the captured plates would have in- sured the success of this scheme. New Treaty \Vitll Mexico. WASHINGTON, April 22.—The presi— dent will in a few days issue a procla- mation giving effect to the new extra- dition treaty between the United States and Mexico, President Diaz taking sim- ilar action in Mexico. The Mexican em- bassy has been advised that the treaty was ratified by the Mexican senate on April 12 last and already has been rat- ified by the United States senate, so that it Will become effective as soon as proclaimed by the presidents of the two countries. Henry’s Retirement Regretted. SAN JUAN, Porthico, April 22.——The recall of General (fly V. Henry to the United States is regarded regretfully here. He says he was obliged to ask for relief on" account of poor health and that he feared to stay here throughout the summer. The general knows Briga- dier General George W. Davis, his suc- cessor, and congratulates the people of Porto Rico upon having such a capable governor. He says General Davis is bet- ter fitted than he to govern Porto Rico. Hobart Will Retire. WASHINGTON, April 22.—Viee Pres- Ident Hobart has decided that he will not be a candidate for re-election, as his health is not sufficiently good to justify his continuance in politics. It is even doubtful if he will be able to perform his duties next winter as pre- siding officer or the senate. His trouble is a. weak heart. Fined For Beating a Sailor. SAN FRANCISCO, April 22.—Captain John Dillon of the government trans- port Morgan City has been found guilty of cruelly beating a sailor on the high seas and fined $350. Dillon almost kill- ‘ed a drunken sailor who struck him. First Payment on the Maine.

MANILA, April 22.—At 6 o’clock yes- terday morning three companies of the South Dakota regiment marched from Bocave and, in conjunction with three companies of the Minnesota. regiment from Guiguinto, north of Bocave, en. countei‘bd a. rebel force numbering- fully 500 men when two miles out. The enemy retired'three miles in fair- ly good order, in spite of the fact that they suffered heavy losses. , The Americans, having exhausted their ammunition, were compelled to return to their camps. The heat is intense. At noon the thermometer registered 95 degrees, and the mercury was still rising. There were several prostrations from the heat among the troops, but only one man was wounded. Later the army tugs opened fire on the enemy along the river banks. The rebels are unusually active west of Maldlos as far as Calumpit. They have been busily at work on their trenches, and several new trenches have been discovered within two miles of the railroad. ,Fires are burning east of the railroad, and it would appear that the rebels are evacuating the foot- hill towns in anticipation of an attack upon the part of the American troops. Cowards if We Retire. LONDON, _April 22.—The Saturday Review, commenting upon General Lawton’s retirement from the Santa Cruz district of Laguna de Bay, says: "Unpatriotic politicians in the United States are doing their utmost to create a panic in the hope that the Philippines may be abandoned and the party in power discredited. It is an ignoble game, and we sincerely trust it will be unsuccessful. If the Americans retire from their self appointed task, the great republic must take the brand of ‘cow— ard’ as well as the brand of ‘Cain’ with which Lowell declared it to be marked.” THE' BUSINESS OUTLOOK. Everything Appears Favorable—A Lull In the Iron Trade. NEW YORK, April 22.—R. G. Dun & Co.’s weekly review of trade says: Nothing appears in business or in money markets to prevent continuance of the heaviest trade ever transacted at good profits. The payment to Spain is supposed to have caused‘some rise in foreign exchange, which would amount to nothing in any case, as balances due from other countries more than cover the payment and advance bills against crops to come forward in July and later will soon be offered. Wheat receipts have been 7,511,343 bushels against 5,206,643 last year in three weeks of April, and the improve- ment since April 1 is worthy of no- tice. Exports have fallen off, amount— ing from both coasts to only 6,774,774 bushels, flour included, in three weeks agalnst 10,919,122 last year, and the price closes but half a cent higher than last week. Nothing but industrial depression is left to excite apprehension, but the in— dustries are meeting something very’ unlike depression. .The kind of “lull" that appears in the iron market rejoices manufacturers because they are crowd- ed far ahead with orders. ' Men who have held wool stiffly for, more than a year are selling freely at' bottom prices, admittedly the lowest of the year. Salesat the chief markets in two weeks have been 23,204,285 pounds. of which 17,937,585 were domestic, against vanced an eighth, but experts are small.“ Failures for the week have been 184 in the United States against 204 last year and 22 in Canada against 29 last year, BASEBALL SCORES.
