ALARUMS OF WAR. Continued from First Page. ing or using the guns, the weather being intensely disagreeable, with a heavy rain and hailstorm and a high sea. But Commodore Schley decided to go out and begin the maneuvers. The Massachusetts dipped her low nose in the water time after time, taking up tons of water, but was handled beautifully, coming up to alignment or circling more quickly than a light cruiser. The other vessels also were quick to respond to signals. The drill was kept up all day, and at nightfall anchorage was made 137 miles from Cape Charles. After dark signal work by electric light was practiced for two hours. At nine o'clock when most of the officers and men had prepared to retire, the call to quarters and battle calls were sounded. On the Brooklyn so quickly was the work done that every division officer had reported "ready" in four minutes, and the ship was ready for battle, with water-tight compartments closed, ammunition hoisted to guns, turrets swinging, battle hatchets down and the crews ready to shoot. The other ships reported almost as quickly. Friday morning was given up to practice at the guns, all the ships putting out targets at 800 yards. The gunners on the Brooklyn cut the flag from the top of their target within twenty minutes, remarkable work when it is considered that the target was but 18 inches square and the flagstaff but two inches wide. At one o'clock the ships were signalled by Commodore Schley to head for Hampton Roads for anchorage, with the exception of the Texas, which was ordered to remain out and try her big guns and improved turret with solid shot. The rest of the squadron reached Fortress Monroe about five o'clock. Commodore Schley expressed himself as very much pleased with the work of the captains of the vessels under his charge. He called particular attention to the target practice of the rapid-fire guns, saying: "I don't think any torpedo boat would live under that fire." The Texas ran into Hampton Roads about six o'clock and joined the squadron. The Columbia and Minneapolis went up to Newport News to-night after coal so as to fill up their bunkers, replacing that used to-day. PHILADELPHIA, April 15.—Ex-Postmaster-General John Wanamaker has sent this telegram to Washington: "To the Hon. the Secretary of War: Though opposed to war unless honorably unavoidable, in the event of its coming I will, under your instructions, Doctor Gave Hood's Reduced in Weight by Serious Illness—Caining Fast by Taking Hood's Sarsaparilla. "The grip left my system in a very weak state. I had fallen off in weight from 140 to 119 pounds. I called on my doctor to give me something to build me up. He advised me to try a change of climate and also gave me Hood's Sarsaparilla, with the remark, 'that is the best,' and that I would not need any other medicine. After I had taken the first bottle I found myself greatly improved. I procured another bottle and also a box of Hood's Pills and I was soon perfectly well. I have since taken Hood's Sarsaparilla as a tonic and blood medicine and have always found it good. My husband and little daughter have also taken it with benefit. I have found Hood's Pills an excellent cathartic." Mrs. C. F. Roth, Vernon, Sutter Co., via Noolans, California. Hood's Sarsaparilla Is the best—in fact the One True Blood Purifier. Sold by all druggists. $1; six for $5. Hood's Pills are purely vegetable, carefully prepared. 250. Finally the announcement was made from the War Department that in the event that volunteers were called for the President would appoint all officers of the rank of Colonel and above and officers under that would be appointed from the various States from which the volunteers were received. When the call is issued Virginia, Lee's State, will furnish her quota and the President will designate General Lee as the commander of the forces from the Old Dominion. Owing to Lee's great knowledge of the topographical condition of the island of Cuba it is more than likely that his command will be given orders to at once proceed to Cuba. General Lee has announced his willingness to return Havana at the head of an invading army and doubtless he will be allowed to go upon the outbreak of hostilities. A member of the Senate proposes to introduce a special act under which the President may appoint General Lee Major General of Volunteers. HAVANA, April 16.—A special to the New York Sun says an American warship was sighted yesterday by the sentinel on the light house of Morro Castle. It appeared to be a scout boat of the American squadron. The alarm was given and preparations were made BOLD CONNECTION FOXES. They Have Been Caught by the Hunt This Winter, but They Remain WATERBURY, Conn., April 9. are being taken to get the State some thing toward offering rewolf scalps, with a view of lesser hordes of toxes that infest them and which, although slaughtered month and do damage to the foxes in way of stealing into their yards at night, carrying off geys and hens by the score, kill many times the number they carry and eating the eggs of the fance and the common ones alike. The pest has grown to such tensions this year that there is no fit in northern or western part.State who has a flock of fowls not one of his hired men watch heenneries with shotguns every but in spite of all the precautions wily fox gets in his work frequent. In Tolland and Windham he pelts of 286 foxes have been captured and sold since Nov. 1. 200 more were so torn by their buckshot as to be useless.Talbot of Coventry has bought the pelts from these two counties 100 from Hartford and twice from Litchfield and New Haven tiles. The valley of the Naugatuck is thick with foxes. The county Waterbury is the garden of Concord for fowls and eggs. The mountain nature of the country affords these regions to go out in the day and find only two or three lefthook of 100 chickens. Traps, gossoned meat and hounds have been in vain. The planting season will be upon them and they can't spend time fox hunting that they use at ploughing, and that the State should offer some ment that would get some of their time hunters together. The winter up the valley has pretty severe, and the foxes desperate by hunger, have not ed to attack young lambs. The even killed the skunks, which tortorious egg suckers and young destroyers, and which they find them on the same mission at their en coops. Lyman Squires of Westford cured 100 pelts in first-class oats and blown to pieces a great mass work of the captains of the vessels under his charge. He called particular attention to the target practice of the rapid-fire guns, saying: "I don't think any torpedo boat would live under that fire." The Texas ran into Hampton Roads about six o'clock and joined the squadron. The Columbia and Minneapolis went up to Newport News to night after coal so as to fill up their bunkers, replacing that used to-day. PHILADELPHIA, April 15.—Ex-Postmaster-General John Wanamaker has sent this telegram to Washington: "To the Hon. the Secretary of War: Though opposed to war unless honorably unavoidable, in the event of its coming I will, under your instructions, raise a regiment of Pennsylvanians for military duty and go with them for service. JOHN WANAMAKER." After sending his offer to the Secretary of War, Mr. Wanamaker posted in his store two notices, one for the managers of departments and the other on the time keeper's desk: "In order that our men may have easy minds in considering and arranging their affairs in the event of being called upon for military service, this notice is posted to say: First—That all the positions thus vacated will be reopened to return to when the military service is over. Second—That all salaries will continue in full in such absence for actual service and be paid to the authorized representative of their respective families. Third—An insurance to the amount of one thousand dollars will be paid by the firm in case of each death while any of our people are actually engaged in military service." Mr. Wanamaker, in a speech at Ashborne last night, said: "We know not to what we shall awake with the morning light. Thick shadows of the impending strife of arms have settled down upon the land, notwithstanding the hope against hope that the awful costs of war in blood and treasure might be saved with justice to both countries and with dignity and honor. "The roll of drums and the signal of the flying squadron is calling us to war. Each of us must consider our relations to the nation and adjust our affairs accordingly." NEW YORK, April 15.—A special from Washington says: The president's present intention is to give his act of war in taking possession of Cuba a humanitarian aspect. He proposes to send merchant vessels loaded with medicines and food and clothing for the starving Cubans to Havana and Matanzas. These vessels will be accompanied by twenty warships and by transports carrying regular United States troops. They will land peacefully and take possession of the fortified towns, unless Spain fires upon them. If Spain fires the first shot the battle-ships Indiana and Iowa and the monitors Puritan, Terror and Amphitrite will instantly begin the bombardment of Havana with their twelve and thirteen-inch guns. How long the two-century-old fortifications of Havana with their 17th-century muzzle-loading cannon will stand against the sixty-eight tonnets of Capt. Sampson's fleet is an interesting question. The bombardment is not likely to last longer than the bombardment of Alexandria by the British fleet in 1883—about four hours. The only thing that will remain will be for the United States torpedo boats to clear Havana harbor of the submarine mines and the United States will be in possession of the capital of Cuba. NEW YORK, April 15.—The President has decided to give Consul General Lee the command of the Virginia work of the captains of the vessels under his charge.

MALAGA (Spain), April 16.—There was a serious disturbance here today, resulting in an attack on the United States consulate. The demonstration began with the parading of small crowds through the streets, shouting patriotic cries. But a mob eventually gathered and assaulted the United States consulate. Stones were thrown, and the leaders of the mob procured a ladder, tore down the shield bearing the arms of the United States, and dragged it along the streets. The prefect was summoned, and he addressed the people, begging them to disperse, which to some degree restored order. Afterward the streets were patrolled by gendarmes. As this dispatch is sent, the excitement continues. MADRID, April 16, 10 p.m.—This evening demonstrations were made in several of the provincial capitals. The American shield has been replaced at the American consulate in Malaga amid the tumultuous protests of the crowd. A force of gendarmes continues to patrol the street.

I wonder she misses her salary very much." Battle and Diseases. This is the story of one who participated in many naval and infantry engagements during the war. From wounds received then he suffered for years, but to-day, rejoices in renewed strength. There is a distinctly peculiar halo that invests the being of an old soldier in the eyes of the present generation. The sight of him arouses a feeling of admiration for his brave deeds and heroic achievements. Among those who bravely fought was Dr. L. J. Clark, who, when but a beardless boy, heard the tooc of war sounded. It fired his patriotic spirit to a fervency that found relaxation only in his realization of fighting in the battles. To the call of President Lincoln for troops in the latter part of '61, young Clark promptly responded. These was need of men in the navy, and he joined that service in the mortar fleet of Admiral Porter, which soon after began operations on the Mississippi Rivers. At the terrible bombardment of the Vicksburg fort, the hero of this story fell on the deck of the Juliette with a shattered arm from a charge of scapegoat. He lay in the hospital for months, and when he had recovered sufficiently to be moved, was sent to his home at Warren, O. Though partly incapacitated for active service, his patriotic zeal got the better of him, and when the call for more troops came, young Clark enlisted in a company formed by Capt. Joel L. Asper, at Warren. It became Co. H. of the 7th Ohio Volunteers and was sent to the Army of the Potomac under General Grant then campaigning in Virginia against General Robert H. Lee. In a skirmish near Richmond, he was wounded again and was sent to the hospital. He remained there for some time, but finally recovered, and went home. Shortly after, he began the study of veterinary surgery, and, when completed, went to Chicago, where he has resided for thirty years, and is now one of the leading surgeons of that profession in the city. His old wounds began to trouble him several years ago. He grew weak, emaciated and thoroughly debilitated. His friends began to despair of his life. He was but a shadow of his former self, weighing only 90 pounds, a loss of nearly 50 pounds. He had the best medical attention, but it did not benefit him. "Finally a friend gave me a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People," said Dr. Clark. "After taking the pills I was so much benefited that I purchased a half dozen boxes and took them." "They were of more benefit than the ablest physicians' treatment. By their aid alone, I soon regained my strength." "I weigh 180 pounds now, and except for injuries that can never be remedied, I am as well as ever." "I consider Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People the best remedy I know of to build up a run-down system." To-day Dr. Clark is a picture of health. He is 59 years old, an active member of Hatch Post, G. A. R., and resides at 4935 Ashland Ave., Chicago. Many veterans have found Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People of incontinence value in counteracting the unhealthful effects of army life. All druggists sell these pills and highly recommend them. DOES SHE LOVE ME? Does she love me? That is Greek—Par too deep for me to know. Do the sweet lips always speak from the heart's deep overflow?

She Braved Her Husband's Anger and Boosted Him to Success. "Know him?" asked one of the two men talking at the corner as he nodded toward a handsome old gentleman just passing by. "No? Well, sir, that's Dr. Blank, the noted surgeon. I've known him ever since we used to frequent the same swimming hole. Just how long that was before the war I'm not going to say. He beat me in the race for the girl that he married, and if he hadn't the chances are that the doctor would still be driving, night and day, over a little back county, attending to a practice that couldn't pay if it wanted to. "When they were back there in the woods and he was performing operations that no other member of the profession had thought of undertaking, she gathered from the talk of friendly doctors in the same section that he was original, daring and successful. She begged him to advertise his abilities, but he sternly rebuked her for asking him to transgress the ethics of the profession. "But you know how it is when a bright woman sets her head. The doctor's office was a shabby little den without carpet, window shades, pictures or anything else but the plainest furniture. He resisted all her efforts to change this. One evening he came home from 86 hours' stay with a patient to find that office so transformed in velvet carpet, tapestries and pictures that he flatly declined to enter it. His wife was away on a visit. Men had been there, done the work and disappeared. There were no bills, the home merchants knew nothing, and the doctor was so mad that he advertised everything for sale. The thing was told in the local papers as a huge joke, and incidentally there were related some of the stories of how he took people apart and put them together again. City papers copied and city doctors ridiculed This rilled Blank. He proved that he had worked greater wonders than were credited to him, and he was famous.

Two New York women stood in front of a Broadway window watching a Persian weaver laboriously weaving upon a frame, the pattern of a beautiful rug. Slowly, almost imperceptibly, thread by thread the pattern grew beneath his hand, until what had seemed a meaningless crossing of dull threads gradually took on form and beauty. Suddenly one of the two women began to repeat the lines: Weaving, weaving threads of faith Pattern of a woman's heart. Who can ere anticipate The hues of life in every part? Will the colors warmly glimmer? All traced in love and happiness; Or will they fade in somber woe? A woman's future who can guess? There is infinite pathos in the way that women ponder over and try to trace out the purpose and meaning of their lives. To young and happy women it seems as if destiny was weaving their future in all the colors of the rainbow like a merry dance of cupids weaving garlands about a May pole in the spring-time of life. But to thousands of women life looks to be all "a warp of sorrow in a woof of pain." WHAT LIFE REALLY IS. A woman's life pattern is really woven by herself. A great philosopher has said "Life is neither pain, nor pleasure; it is serious business." If a woman would make it her serious business to understand herself mentally, morally and physically, using the common sense that God has given her, there would be far less misery and suffering woven into the pattern of her life. She can make it almost anything she chooses.

"She was his stenographer before they were married. I wonder how they get along?" "I heard her say the other day that she misses her salary very much." Walking the Floor. When a business man gets to the point where he cannot sleep at night, where he is shattered of nerve that it is torture to even remain in his bed, and he has to get up and pace the floor; it is time for that man to bring himself up with a round turn, if he does not, it means nervous prostration and mental, if not physical, death. For a man who gets into this condition there is a remedy that will brace him up, put him on his feet and make a man of him again. It is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It goes to the bottom of things. It searches out the first cause. When a man is in this condition you can put your finger on one of two spots and hit that first cause—the stomach or the liver or both. This great medicine acts directly on these spots. It promptly transforms a weak stomach into a healthy one. It facilitates the flow of digestive juices and makes digestion and assimilation perfect. It gives a man an appetite like a boy's. It invigorates the liver. It fills the blood with the life-giving elements of the food, and makes it pure, rich, red and plentiful. The blood is the life current, and when it is filled with the elements that build new and healthy tissues, it does not take long to make a man well and strong. It builds firm, muscular flesh tissues and strong and steady nerve fibers. It puts new life, vigor and vitality into every atom and organ of the body. It cures nervous exhaustion and prostration. Nothing "just as good" can be found at medicine stores. "I had suffered about eleven years with a pain in the back of my head and back," writes Mr. Robert Hubbard, of Varner, Lincoln Co., Ark. "I suffered for eleven years and spent a great deal of money for doctors and medicine, but did not get relief. Then I tried four bottles of the 'Golden Medical Discovery' and improved greatly. I sent for five more and now am glad to tail everyone that I am in good health." Herrmann and the Cheat. A characteristic story is told of Herrmann. The incident took place at a well known London club, where eccarte was one of the favorite games indulged in for stakes by no means insignificant. It was observed that on these occasions a certain member almost invariably rose a considerable winner. At length so marked became the good fortune of the member that another determined probe the matter to the bottom. O evening, accordingly, at his own rooms, he introduced Herrmann under a false name to a select party of the members, among whom figured the suspected one. At the close of the night's amusement, when the guests had departed, the host turned to the conjurer and demanded his opin.on. "Not a doubt of it," replied Herrmann, "our friend cheats, but exactly how I can't say yet. Give me another chance." A second meeting was subsequently arranged, and play began. Suddenly Herrmann, looking straight at the supposed culprit, explained, "Where did you get that king?" "Wher?'" replied the other. "Out of the pack, of course." "Impossible, my dear sir," retorted Herrmann, "for I happen to have all the four kings here," and thereupon he calmly drew them from his sleeve and laid them on the table.—St. James Gazette. Dress Reform For Babies. The latest invention in the dress reform for babies, which is rapidly becoming more popular, is that all the garments can be put on at once. The first garment is a princess alip of fine flannel or crepeline, made with high neck and long sleeves. The next is a sleeveless garment of nearly the same shape and material, and last comes the nainsook dress. All three fasten together at the back with three buttons. The abdominal band is sheer and not tight, and the feet are left bare. A woman's life pattern is really woven by herself. A great philosopher has said "Life is neither pain, nor pleasure; it is serious business." If a woman would make it her serious business to understand herself mentally, morally and physically, using the common sense that God has given her, there would be far less misery and suffering woven into the pattern of her life. She can make it almost anything she chooses. Every woman who wants to derive the full share of happiness; which nature intended her to find as a woman, wife and mother, ought to read that great and wise book, The People's Common Sense Medical Adviser, by R.V. Pierce, M.D. Several hundred of its thousand pages are devoted to the subject of woman's special physiology, telling in plain and refined language how a woman may build up her physical self to meet the emergencies of her developing career. The author of this great book is among the most successful of living physicians. His "Favorite Prescription" is known in every corner of the civilized globe as the most remarkable supportive tonic and health creator ever devised for weak and ailing womien. It imparts direct strength and healthful vitality to woman's delicate, special structure, and increases the vigor, endurance and recuperative force of her entire system.

Then the health I boasted can never describe the awful suffering I endured I endured for death to relieve me, when a kind neighbor came in and asked me to try a bottle of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. I said despairingly: "Oh, its of no use. I can't ever be any better." She insisted, and my husband, who was in despair, got a bottle, and I took it to please him. I had not taken half a bottle when I was able to walk across the room without feeling faint or having any palpitation of the heart. Oh what a God-send your medicine is to suffering humanity.

Strange Phenomenon Witnessed In the Northeast of the Dark Continent. Charles M. Stern of Chicago, who returned to this city after a journey through northeast Africa, told of a curious meteorological phenomenon which he observed in a district called Gwallah. "The vegetation in that region is very luxuriant," said he, "and the plant life must give off an unusually large quantity of carbonic acid gas. At least that was the conclusion I reached after seeing three natives die and four or five dogs. "The moment the animals put their noses close to the ground they would fall over and gasp and die in about five minutes. The natives who died slept on the ground instead of in hammocks, as others did. I saw hundreds of dead birds. My theory is that a stratum of the deadly gas covered the ground for a depth of three or four inches, and any living thing breathing in that area would be asphyxiated. "I could not understand, however, how the gas was not distributed in a thinner layer and what kept it in one place for a whole day. Nothing like it had ever been known there before. The deaths of the men and the dogs all occurred within 24 hours. Then the gas, if it was really gas, seemed to dissipate. It was a very strange occurrence, and I might have been induced to make a more exhaustive investigation if my presence had not excited distrust. I got away as quickly as possible rather than be accused of being the cause of the sudden death. The natives are superstitions and attribute most of their misfortunes to witchcraft, so I thought it the part of wisdom to get away."—New York Mail and Express. To Keep Paris Clean.
