I was troubled with profuse flowing

treatment all the time, but it did me no good. I had almost
given up in despair, but your Vegetable Compound has made

eied~e.stier "! It contains a great
deal of-p;eaouf ement:.to them -and
those who klow Gen. Otis well say he
is not ai man'to ake':a roseate view oL
a situation unless there is reason for
it. It is argued at the war department
that the Filipinos have never been
used to 'the kind of warfare that the
Americans have given them, and for
that reason they are now aware that it
.will be impossible for them to accom'plish
anything by fighting. While there
is 'disappointment because the movement
for the capture of'a large force
-of the Filipinos 'was not successful it
is believed the pressing of the ipsurgents
steadily'toward the north, capturing
their capital and driving them
from place to place has had a very discouraging
effect upon the natives who
have been following Aguinaldo.
It is evident by the reference which
Gen. Otis makes to reconnoitering part
ies that he IS having the country
thoroughly covered and that the information
which they are giving him is
the basis for the dispatch received yesterday.
It Is believes that desertions
will soon deplete the army of Aguinaldo
to little or nothing. That portion
of the dispatch relating to the Viscayans
refers to the operations of which
Iloilo is the capital. The group includes
Panaya, Bohol, Cebu, Negros
and others of less importance. The rebellion
against the United States authority
was not very serious in these
isands, being stirred up by emissaries
of Aguinaldo at Iloilo. The constant
defeat of Aguinaldo's forces north of
Manila has no doubt had a depressing
effect upon the other insurrectionists.
The natives continue returning to
their homes. They are coming In all
along the American lines and ~many
of them, seeeing the promises of good
treatment are fulfilled, inducing their
reatives to return to their homes.
Maj. Gen. Elwell S. Otis, commander
of the American miitary forces, has received
the following message:
"Hearty congratulations on the most
magnificent work of the army.
DEWEY."
The Uni{ed States Philippine commission,
the last member of that body
Col. Chas. Denby, former minister to
China, having arrived here, will discuss
the situation. The commissioners
are hopeful of a speeedy restoration
of peace, believing hostilities will
soon be confined to the habitual revolutionists.Brig. Gen. H. G. Otis sails for home
on board the United States transport
Sherman. He says he believes the insurrection
has received its death blow,
The Sherman also has on board
the sons of Col. John Hay, secretary
of state, and Senator Hale of Maine,
who have witnessed much of the fighting
with the army, and the bodies of
Col. Harry C. Egbert of the twentysecond
infantry, kiled on March 26,
and other officers who have recently

Gen. Wheaton has assumed command

by Gen Otis.
Extensive Purchase.
Birmingham, Ala., April 4.-Randolph
Williams of Richmond, Va., representing
a syndicate of Baltimore and
Richmond capitalists, headed by John
Skelton Wililams, the new president of
the Seaboard Air Line, closed a deal
for the purchase of 1800' acres ..of valuable
mineral and manufacturing site
lands near Gate City, six miles from
Birmingham. While the purchasers
have not publicly announced their
plans, it is stated that two iron furnaces
of 200 tons capacity each are to
be erected and that large glassworks
are also 'in contemplation: Valuable
artesian wells are located on the lands
and this, if continued, will be utilized
for supplying water to suburban
towns. The deal also revives the
story that the Seaboard Air Line si
figuring on reaching Birmingham by
the purchase of tXY East and West
Alabama railroad from Cartersvill,
Ga., to Pell City, Ala., and its extension
from the latter place to Birmingham.
The transaction as it stands involves
an investment of about $150,000.Solf Arrives.
Washington, April 4.-Dr. Solf, the
newly appointed president of the municipality
of Samoa, arrived here yesterday.
Dr. Solf came to the state departrent
during the afternoon with
Ambassador von Holleben, who presented
him to Secretary Hay. The
meeting was purely formal and then,
at the instance of the secretary, Dr.
Solf was made acquainted personally
wiwth the assistant secretaries of
state. He speak English excellently,
and made a most agreeable impression.Rev. C. P. Bridewell of Fort Worth
has accepted the call tendered him by
the First Presbyterian church of Atlanta,
Ga.
No Cruel Mieasures.
New York, April 4.-Maj. Gen. Wesley
Merritt in an interview said:
"The news from Manila is satisfactory.
Aguinaldo does not seem' to
know when he is whipped. If he
should be captured he would be treated
as a prisoner of war. There will be
no cruel measures."
"Do you look for prolonged fighting?""No. The Filipinos are not' prepared
for that sort of thing. We shall not

killed in three accidents here yesterday.
The following three were killed
in a sewer cave-in: William Minche,
Marcos Neighbarger and Walter Bunn,
colored.
At the old Ahoe mine Dan Karmine
was knocked down the 120-foot shaft
and died soon after. At the Missouri
Lead and Zinc company's mine John
Smith, a miner, was killed by a falling
boulder.
The three men working in the sewer
were entombed by the caving-in of
the sewer walls, without warning.
Minche and Bunn were-buried under
nineteen feet of earth and killed outright.
Neighbarger was pinned against
the sewer wall with head and shoulders
exposed. He retained consciousness
for some time and talked with his
father and sister while workmen
strained every effort to dig him out,
but he died while they worked with
hundreds of people helplessly looking
on.

from W. J. Bryan, received on
Saturday by Eugene V. Brewster, but
withheld by him until yesterday, reads

for Bryan silver dinners on April
19:
"Think the two meetings should be
held on different nights, so that all
Democrats and workingmen can attend
both."

confidental."a

James Gibson of the circuit court, who
was aroused from bed to appoint the

A SENSIBLE LETTER,
A Western' Canadian Settler Writes- to
an Illinois Friend.
In writing to Mr. T. Hawkyard, of
Rockford, Ill., Mr. G. Simpkins, of
Leduc, Alberta, Western Canada (and
to which points especially low rates art
being quoted over all lines of railway),
says:
Dear Sir:-Rec'd your letter the 14tlh
inst. We have had no snow till after
Christmas and the cattle have been'
able to live out, and are all in good
condition. It is snowing now. That
is what we want; have about 6 inches
now. The old settlers say when we
have lots of snow it means a good crop
the coming season. It never drifts
here. The weather is calm and bright.
We do not have to dress any heavier
than in Illinois, and 'the'horses never
shiver with the cold when we take
them from the warm stables, as they
do in Illinois. It has not frozen in the
stable this winter. The most of the
stock runs out, but there is no need
of it, for timber is plentiful and there
is no expense to build good stables and
houses. We have good log houses and
they are very warm. Two men can
put up a house 16x24 in two days.
There are good rails for fences. We
live ten miles from the coal district,
the price being from 50 cents up to
$2.00. The land is a very rich, loamy
soil, from 6 inches to several feet' in
depth; the hills have the deepest. It
is a rolling country, and excellent for
stock of all kinds. Sheep do well, and'
there are plenty of small lakes where,
the cattle can get good' water. The
cattle got out of grass last year, about
the middle of April, and run at large;
unless in charge of a, herdsman, we
have to fence against them. Wheat
goes from 35' to 60 bushels per acre.
oats 80 to 90, very often over a hun-'
dred. As to potatoes, a neighbor
planted 7 bushels and: dug 226 bushels
and no bugs. Roots of all kinds do
well. There are lots of strawberries
and lots of' red raspberries, black and
red currants, and gooseberries, where
the fire has not burnt them. Cattle
are scarce. I have been trying, to buy
some for 8 months and have got only'
three two-year-old, and paid $30 each.
Hogs are scarce, but' can be got. They
sell for 6' cents dressed, and' cost more
for stockers. Wheat 50 cents per bu.,
oats 25 cents, eggs 30 cents a dozen.
butter 15 and, 20' cents, poultry was 10
and 11 cents dressed,. Sheep are
scarce. If you come, bring your farm
tools, but bring no seeders; we use
drills. Bring, cows, but do not bring.
horses unless you are. an experienced
hand in shipping them, fbr so many ofP
them are hurt in shipping.' There will
be plenty of work for- a binder. Two,
good horses will break, but three lighter
are better. The horses you get here
can work without grain, but are better
with it. It will be hard to tell what
prices horses will be, for the iinmi-gration
will be very large the coming
spring. They could be had last -s~ring
at one time. They claim the best time
to break is June, but wrm experience
is to break In the spring and work it.
You can break till tb& middle j July.When
