The Text of the Protocol Concerning
Samoa is All Satisfactory.
Hereafter Civil Service Standings of
Applicants Will be Made Public.
1t is Reported that Gold has Been
Found in Dakota.

BERLIN, May 25.-Sir Edward Malet,
Mr.. KHsson and Herr Holstein, as a COM
mIttee Oh the revision, com pleted today
the draft of the protocol concerning the
Samoan questions. 1t contains clauses
relating to the municipal government of
the Apia coaling ports, held by powers
Of the land commission and the auton-
omy of the Samoan government, the
text of which has already been cabled
toi Washington and approved by Scores
tary Blaine. The remaining clauses
defining the tariff of Samoa, const1tu-
ton of the native government and the
German claims for indemnity from the
natives is framed in consonance with
instructions from Blaine, who is in daily
cable communication with the commits
sion. Nothing, therefore, ought in the
opinion of the delegates, prevent the
winding up of the conference Tuesday,
when the business is expected to be linn
tied to an exchange of signature agree
ments. The success of the commission
and the rapidity with which the business
was got through with, is partly due to the
conciliatory attitude of Herbert Bismarck
and the impartial policy displayed by Sir
Edward Malt, and largely to the fact
of the American commissioners hav-
ing indefinitely covered every
point. Constant hard work of the sub
committees marvelously expedited mat
tiers, plenary sittings of conference fav-
ing little to do further than to hear
reports. Throughout no embarrassing
developments have retarded the progress
of the deliberations. When the confer
ence began, it was announced that the
foreign Office was confident its sessions
would terminate in the first week in
June. The discussion has taken its
course, and the issue is according to fore
cast.

The Kansas city journal says, Rhode

mont aud concluded that so long as the
saloons run any way they might as well
pay license fees. in reply the Provi-
dence Journal says, This is a
weak statement of the issue. The qucs-
ton of revenue is of importance, to be
sure, but it IS entirely overshadowed by
considerations of morality. The proti-
bltion experiment in this State has forced
the conclusion that instead Of intemper-

A Novel Parade.

Sells Brothers and Barrett, with their united shows, will introduce more novel features in their street parade this year than all other shows in America combined can produce.
 Each of these shows was fully equipped for the tenting season, and intended to tour the country scpar- ately, but by a stroke of genius, more bold than has ever before been at tempted, they arranged to travel and exhibit in conjunction. It was diff iicult task to find room on their sixty long cars for the two shows. and in order to introduce a brand new feat. ure never before seen in this country, ten new cars, each sixty-five feet in length, had to be built. The feature alluded to above is the Children's Dream of Fairyland, exempliiied with many golden chariots, represent ing the principal features of fairy lore-among which is Robinson Cru soc, Old Mother Goose, Cinderella, ipiitC ptdlN, IJitlic hc' hi'titig IIOph. Santa Claus, and the Old Woman Who Lived in Shoe. These golden chariots, drawn by ponies, together with the miniature Tally IIo coach with monkey footmen and attendants, will appear in the parade. Over fifty cages. two droves of camels, two herds of elephants, many bands of music, and hundreds of other feat ures will be worth going many miles to see, and is only partial index of the wealth of wonder displayed under the 3huge canvasses. It requires four extra large locomotives to haul thls immense show upon the levelest railroads. This grand parade will appear about 10 O clock on the streets of Prescott, on Thursday, Nov. 2lst

Common Sense

Should be used in attempting to cure that very disagreeable disease, ca tarrh. A catarrh originates in im- purities of the blood, local applica- tions can do no permanent good. The common sense method of treat ment is to pnrify the blood, and for this purpose there is no preparation superior to Hood's Sarsaparilla. That this peculiar medicine does cure catarrh is shown by the many testi monials from people who have found relief upon using it when all others had failed.
