Chill Preparing for,war.

The government of Chill proposes
before the end of May to have
five thousand troops of the national
guard under arms. The chiefs of the
military and naval forces Friday held
3 long conference with the minister OF
war and marine. 1t was decided to in
crease the defenses of the republic and
to repair and strengthen those already
built. The government, through the
Chillian minister at Paris, has made a
contract with well-known European
firm to build big ironclad and power
full artillery for Chill. A bounty has
been offered if the man-of-war is ready
before the time stipulated.

Spanish Arrogance to be Manifested to
the United States.

1t is an open secret that the Spanish
government will be much pleased il
President Cleveland sends message to
congress regarding American losses in
consequence of the rebellion in Cuba.
Such message will Dot only give to
Madrid long desired opportunity to
take official notice of what has been go
ing on of late in the United States and
Cuba, but it will furnish q pretext for
taking the following steps:
First Sending note clearly stating
to the United States government SPANS
intention to put down the rebellion in
Cuba exactly as America did the rebel
lion in the Southern States-that. is to
say, without tolerating any foreign in
reference, even in the form Of media
ton, and without taking the slightest
notice Of any recognition of Cuban
belligerency, except to regard it as
further reason for insisting upon q
stricter regard for neutrality and the
principles of international law than the
United States have manifested, even
while considering the Cubans as simple
rebels against friendly government.
Second-Sending memorandum to
foreign governments, especially Euro
pean powers, setting forth that Spain
is defending a common cause of Euro
pean nations, defending their, es well
as her own rights, against American in
reference and the pretensions of the
Monroe doctrine.
Third-Claiming on the eve of q
general election that the Spanish cabi-
net has been indicated.

" removes. That is why it is the oni7
remedy with millions of families, ana -
everywhere esteemed so highly by al
who value good health Its benenclah
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the

If in the enjoyment of good health
and the system is regular, then laxa-
tives or other remedies are not needed
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
