Peter G. Thompson is the foreman OF
the carpenter shop of the Schagticoke
Powder Company. at Schaghticoke, N. Y
Mr.. Thompson recently had a stroke OF
paralysis. which at his advanced years
may very well have proven fatal. Here
Is what he says:
Il am sixty-seven years old, and have
been employed as the foreman Of the
carpenter shop of the Schaghticoke Pow

while coming home from church, l was
stricken with paralysis of the right leg.
Very shortly afterward my right arm was
eye This latter affliction was so serious
that all objects appeared double. and my
sight to a certain extent was useless.
Il had two physicians attending me and
also two noted occulists, one from Troy
and the other from Albany. though they
could not help me. but of course their
services cost a great deal of money and
as l was not earning anything, this alone
was great source of worriment and dis
comfort to me- for things looked blue
1T was then that ! took notice of an
advertisment OF Or. Williams Pink Pills

the crime by his partner in the crime, Mrs

About 10 o'clock the main door of the

which it mas borne since Monday last. His

table when she was directed to take the

SPANS REPLY SATISFACTORY.
The President Said to De FayorotIx
Impressed.

1t is stated on good authority that Pre-
mier Sagastas reply to Minister Wood
ford's note, the full text OF which was read
at yesterdays cabinet meeting, is satisfac-
tSry to this government In it the Spaa-
ish ministry pledges itself to correct the
abuses of power in Cuba which was the
subject of SO much complaint during the
Weyler administration, and gives assur-
ance of the friendly feeling toward the
American people. 1t accepts our good Of
fees in its efforts to restore peace in Cuba
and asks this government, SO far as pos
sible, to restrain the insurgent sympa-
tEizers in the United States from giving
material aid to the enemies of Spain IN
Cuba The reply intimates that but for
the assistance that has been given them
by flibusterS from the United States peace
would have been restored long ago
The reply, 1t is stated, docs not contain
sentence that could give offense or be
construed into an expression of an un-
friendly purpose or feeling against the gov
ernment of the United States" On the
contrary, the note is stated to be distinctly
conciliatory in tone, although insisting
upon the right and duty of Spain to put
down armed fnsurrection within its own
territory. The reply has made favorable
impression upon President Mckinley and
the members Of the cabinet, and IL is not
unlikely that one of the features of his
forthcoming message to Congress will be
a discussion of the Cuban situation, from
which it will appear that there is nothing
in the situation to justify present inter-
ference on the part of the United States.
Senor Dupuy de LONE, the Spanish minis
ter, called at the State Department today,
and had short conference with Assistant
Secretary Day, presumably with reference
to flibustering operations. 1t is the prac-
tice of the Spanish legation to instantly in
form the State Department of the intention
of any party of filibusters to depart from
Cuba as the information comes to it
through its agents.
The minister is making preparations for
the dinner to be given here TO Senor Can
alajas, and is extending invitations TO
members of the cabinet and other promi-
nent persons in Washington to attend. Fri
day night has been set for the dinner
