Weak Men and Women will be Glad

Tired bodies, pale and sunken cheeks,
haggard eyes. sleepless nights and weak
nerves, are running our lives and killing
our people. No wonder these great suf.

in curing nervous and chronic diseases
and the diecoverer of that wonderful
medicine, DR.. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy. He has established
system of letter correspondence at his
Office, IS West 14th st., New York City,
by which all can write him about their
complaints, and by mentioning the
symptoms they suffer from and telling
him how they feel, they will receive an

ly and permanently, and makes all
understand exactly what their complaint
is. And all this costs nothing, No
journey to the city, no doctors fee, the
best medical advice and consultation in
the world, and nothing to pay. The
Doctor makes a speciality Of treating
patients through letter correspondence,
and it is wonderfully successful. Write
him at once, reader, and you will almost
certainly be made strong and we'll.

War Fleets Compared.

In view OF the possibility that the
rash Spaniard in his wrath will make
war on the United States it is matter
OF interest to tompare the relative naval
strength OF Spain and this country-for
such war would be carried on almost
wholly at sea.
Spain has eight armored vessels, rang.
ing from 600 to 5000 tons displacement,
half OF them of recent construction.
They are pretty good warships, but
none of them of the first class unless it
be Carlos v, fine steel cruiser of 5000
tons, modelled after the Blenheim of
England This vessel was launched at
Cadiz on March IL last There are also
in the Spanish navy five deck protected
or partially protected ships, OF from
1000 to 5000 tons. In addition to these
for the operations in Cuba seven gun.
boats have been built in England within
the past year. They are small ships of
300 tons displacement and upward. The
rest of the Spanish navy consists of six.
teen small gun sloops and third rate
gunboat doing service in the Philippines.
The United States navy consists of
twenty. eight armored vessels of from
1900 to 1000 tons displacement. Eight
of these-the Brooklyn, Indiana, Iowa,
Maine, Massachuttes, New York, Ore.
gon and Tesas-are among the most
formidable warships in existence today.
All the other armored vessels are a.
good as any OF their class afoat. There
are twenty. eight unarmored vessels,
most of them magnificent cruisers of the
best construction and the highest speed
attainable;also six modern torpedo boats.
There are thirty.eight old vessels, all of
which would be useful in war. Congress
has granted authority for the building
OF two more battle ships, six gunboats
and three torpedo boats.
1t is apparent that the United States
navy, IN case Of declaration of war by
the hot.headed dons, would make short
work of the Spanish feet.

John Sherman's expense. An orator up
in the state was making great noise for
free coinage of silver. His large audi
ence was in full sympathy with him.
He denocuned "the crime OF 1873" in hot
language, and gave Senator Sherman
bitter combing over as the great criminal
who was responsible for all the disaster
and financial trouble he thought the
''crime of 'z3" had brought on the coun.

view Of trade: ..
When the rush of orders after the

because various combinations have
been and still are retarding orders
by prices which buyers believe can
not be maintained, and the
same 10 true in boots and shoes and in
few branches of textile goods. But
business is on the whole improving
and the employment Of many more
hands will extend purchasing power.
The settlement of the window glass
controversy, starting many thousand
hands, and the collapse of some i'm.
p6ftant combinations, with the same
eject, give promise of more business
Broadly speaking the gain has been
greater than any body expected, and it
Is not surprising If small part of 1t is

Reports from all parts of the coun.
try show clearly the enlargement Of

branches, but Everybody helped by q
more confident feeling. Monetary diff

whole less stimulating. Corn has SYM

important factor in the wheat market
IL that the visible supplies do not gain

The collapse of the nail combination

and considerable reduction in quota

to look for larger demand for prod

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3O.-United States

LONDON, Nov. 80--There has been .
singular change Of late in the tone Of
the French newspapers toward Great
Britain, notably in the caseS of the
Steele, Matin and Temps These pa
pers, instead of attacking "Perfdious
Albion" as has been their won't, have
swung around and now advocate the
cultivation of q French alliance with
Great Britain. According to infor-
nation from high official quar-
ter the change is due to q ce-
menting Of the relations between
Great Britain and Russia. It is
stated rs an undoubted fact that
during the recent visit of the car at
Balmoral, the queens residence in the
Highlands, the Anglo Russian question
concerning boundaries in Central Asia
was absolutely settled. Both the French
and German semi.offlcial newspapers
have published inspired communica-
lions on the subject, and they all con-
cur In praising the czar for abandon
ing the Russian desire for conque
and for completing the division of the
Asiatic continent under the single aim
Of the interests of civilization.
Whether either France or Germany
is entirely pleased with the solution
Of this long-pending matter Is Ques.
tionable.
Communications have been re-opened
between the English foreign office. the
French and the German governments
pointing towards another conference
on the sugar bounty system. Without
being able to state what government
took the initiative, it can be affirmed
that official opinion on each side favors
the abolition of the bounty premium.
The English colonial office is con-
stantly receiving the worst reports
Of the decreasing prosperity Of the su-
gar estates In the West Indies. It 10
stated by recent mail advices, that the
majority Of the great planters put Ave
years as the limit of the West Indian
sugar industry II the bounty system
among European powers continues.
At present the profits are almost NIL,
only the working expenses being
cleared, although the cost of produc-
ton has been reduced from 1S pounds
TO 10 pounds per ton.

formist churchmen ever held will take

blage, the archbishop of Canterbury,
the bishop Of Rochester and other
eminent English churchmen have
written letters of sympathy with the
movement. The elimination of all re-
ligious or polemics from the agenda Of
the congress accounts for the support
of section Of the English prelates.
The programme can not exclude all
