: WORDS OF PRAISE.

Prof. Goodwin Smiths Views ON the Preaa'
dents Gillian Message-An EnglIshman
who Admits it was Temperate, Dignified
and Logically Conclusive.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 4.-Prof. Gold
win Smith made q few remarks at a
dinner last night to Capt. Schley of the
Baltimore. He said he gladly took adj.
vantage of the courteous invitation of
his host to express his regret as an En-
glishman at the repeated utterances Of
portion of the British press respect
ing the Gillian affair. He said he hoped
the worst had come TO US and best
stayed behind.
Speaking of the criticism on the
presidents message on the CHILEAN ques-
ton. Mr. Smith said that to him the
message was entirely temperate, digni-
fed and logically conclusive. Nobody,
he was Eure, who was on the spot could
have reasonably found fault with the
spirit and bearing of the American peo-
pie during the dispute with Chill. There
was no violence, no aggressiveness. no
| appearance of a propensity to display
| superior power by trampling on the
weaker nation. No desire had been
shown but that of upholding interna-
tional law, to vindicate which was the
duty of the American people, not only
| to themselves, but to the whole COM
munity of nations. The weakness of
an offending power may be reason,
MIR. Smith said. for long suffering and
forbearance on the part of the strong,
but it can not be deemed an
unlimited license to break the
law otherwise the world would be
at the mercy of weak powers. ibid
England hesitate the other day to en-
force the law against Portugal" he
asked. mo needless humiliation has
been inflicted on Chilli; nothing has been
| exacted from her but that recognition
| of public right which not alone the will
of the American people, but the law of
nations. required ere
Capt. Schley also spoke briefly. He
said the cruiser Baltimore had always
stood as a representative of the great
| power under whose flag it sailed.
He referred to the efficiency of the
crew of the vessel, and said that if cir
cumstances during the late CHILEAN affair
had required it, he thought the MEM
bers of the crew would have acted in
such manner as to merit the approval
of the government. The cloud of war
had now blown over. the captain said,
but the affair had proved very sug-
| gestive of the fact that war is liable to
come upon the nation at any time. He
4 hoped it would serve as a warning to
! the people, and demonstrate that it is
i time to consider means how best to
protect the country and its flag.

all its earlier stages, it can be cured.
It's scrofulous affection of the
lungs-a blood faint and, as in
every other form of scrofula, DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
is a certain remedy. But it must
be taken in time-and moo is the
time to take it.
1t purifes the blood - that's the
secret. Nothing else acts like it.
It's the most potent strength-re-
storer, blood cleanser, and flesh
builder known to medical science.
For Weak Lungs, Splitting of Blood,
Bronchitis, Asthma, Catarrh, and all
lingering Coughs, it's a remedy
that's guaranteed, in every case,
to benefit or cure.
IF it doesn't, the money is re-
turned.
In other words, it's sold on
trial.
No other medicine of its kind is.
And that proves that nothing else

AN ARKANSAS VILLAGE.

Every traveller going south from St

Pools of water reflect the straight black
lines of tree trunks and the crooked
lines of bare boughs, while muddy
road winds through the vista. Gener.
ally there are few lean cattle to stare
| In a detected fashion at the train, and
some fat black swine to root among the
sodden grasses. Bales of cotton are
piled on the railway platform, and serve
as seats for half dozen 1ist1ess men in
high boots and soft hats. Occasionally
a woman, who has not had the time te
brush her hair, calls shrilly to some
child who is trying to have pneumonis
by sitting on the ground. No one seems
TO have anything to do, yet everyone
looks tired, and the passenger in the

Two months later the ''hole" will
have changed into garden. The great
live oaks will wave a glossy foliage OF
richest green. Men will be blowing in
the fields, and the negroes song will
float through the open car window.
The house yards will be abloom with
Japan ounce and lilacs. The very
shop windows will have a dash of fresh
color in summer bonnets and piles of
new prints. Then the stranger will
awake to the charm of the south; and

over 5000 ounces to the ton.
From the 2-foot body of 26, 600

growing interest and imbibe lessons in

elder generation but can live again the
dramatic scenes of 1861 which it por-
trays, when homes were rent and anx-
tous hearts were 6ver-straihed; The
story appeals to all. So, too, though id
different way, does the Arabian story
of pluck and endurance, THE Lance of

month. The camel race over the desert
described in the February number is
full of force and fire that stirs the blood

The Fire as 1t Was.
Milwaukee correspondence.

No one had real notion OF the havoc
created by our terrific fire till the fol-
lowing Sunday morning. The wind had
died down and the day broke under a
clear sky. Miles away the pillows Of
smoke could be seen rising above the
city, and while they did not sweep the
business streets, they gave to u distant
view the appearance OF a heavy fog,
rolling under the wind and streaking
out In long, thin tanners from the
heart OF the city. Near the Northwest
ern depot the extensive destruction
worked by the fire became seriously
prominent. From the railway tracks as
far as the eye could see through the
smoke almost the entire warehouse part
OF the town was n mass OF ashes and
broken brick and stone, with here and
there the skeleton Of wall or Chin
ney rising dimly out of it through the
clouds. The lake was rolling viciously,
and the line OF scorched breakwater
showed where the fire had bitten down
to the edge Of the water. For while
during the fire even the piling OF this
breakwater was aflame.
From the railroad tracks for blocks q
prosperous part of the town lay smok-
ing. At the limits OF the ilre-swept dis
trict thousands Of people had gathered
and were kept from crowding in by the
policemen and four companies of mill
tiamen armed with rifles. Inside this
line the tired fremen were still working
Some Of them had been fighting the fire
for day and half. They were grimy
from the smoke, and their rubber coats
were cased in cinders. few Of them
were sitting on piles of brick with the
nozzles OF the hose in their black ened
hands. Many OF them were so worn
out by the work Of the night that they
slept beside the engines while men who
owned Offices in the district and boys
