WANTS AN HONORABLE PEACE
Spain Looks to Austria to Help Her Ont
Of Her Present Distress.

London, June 9.-Thc Madrid corro-
spOndCnt of the Daily Mail, says:
"Thcrc is now little doubt that Spain
seeing the h0pclcssnCss of further con-
tinuing the war; is approaching the pow
Crs with a view of obtaining an honoro-
hlc peace. The Cabinet council to-dav
finally authorized Duke Almodovar de
Rio to expedite diplomatic action, and
in consequence the Duke is now confer
ring with certain ambassadors and min
istcrs in Madrid.
"lnstructions have been tclcgraphcd
to the Spanish minister in Vienna, and
orders likewise given to Senor Aguindo,
the Under Secretary OF State TO pro-
cccd at once to the Austrian capital.
Spain is unqucstionably looking to Aus
tria for assistance in her distress. 1t is
unlikely that any appeal will be made
to the Pope, as the earlier intervention
of His Holiness met with discouraging
reception in America.
Probably Captain General August
will be ordered to make the best terms
he can with Admiral Dewey. \ minis
ter has informed me that if reinforce
mcnts were on their way to the Philip
pines, Augusti would he ordered TO hold
out to the last but as they were not,
August would act, according to circum-
stances IA mild euphemism for sur

THE cruiser Lcpanto is still at Car
tagcna, completing her crew Orders
have been issued for between 1000 and
5000 men to assemble at Cadiz, in case
Admiral Camara's squadron may lack
its full complement.
"All the forces opposed to the govern
ment are showing signs of rcstlcsSness.
Marquis de Ccrralbo. the chief agent of
Don Carlos. assures me that while the
war lasts the Carlists will remain quiet,
but, should a dishonoruble peace be ne
gotiated, they will act. ''in accordance
with their ideas of duty" This is IA
plain statement and should not be lost
sight of, si@c it is hardly likely that
the government will negotiate a peace
which the people will not regard as
crushing"

The Charleston Goes to Guahan to Take
it For Coaling Station.
San Francisco, June 9.-Thc evening
Post will say to-day that the cruiser
Charleston viii not go to the Philippine
Islands Immediately. but that her dcs-
tination is the Island of Guahan. in the
Ladrone group. which are controlled by
the Spanish, and which are about 1,500
miles from Manila, and $500 from
Honolulu. The chief city of Guahan is
exceedingly well foItificd for such a
small place, and affords one of the best
harbors and coalng stations in the Pa
cihc.
About six months ago the fortifica-
tions were strengthened by the Spanish
to present formidable resistance in
case of attack.
The Post says that the United States
will seize the group and use the island
of Guahan for Pacific coaling station,
in addition to any others they may seize
in the future. The Charleston the Post
continues. was ordered to wait at HonO-
lulu for the first fleet Of transports that
left the city. and to take the ships to the
Ladrones 1t is asserted that the artil-
lery which went on the Peking was
really intended to garrison the forts at
Guahan, and that after q:iet is restored
and the islands are under the control OF
the United States, the Charleston will,
with the transports, go to Manila. 1t is
said that the MonadnOck will not stay
mt Honolulu. but will proceed to the La
drones and there remain as permanent
guardian of the islands for the United
States.

Bad management keeps more people

Bad management keeps more people in
poor circumstances than any other one

ahead and plan ahead so that when a
favorable opportunity presents itself he
is ready to take advantage of it. A
little forethought will also save much
expense and valuable time. A prudent
and careful man will keep a bottle of

Spain is Looking to the Defences of He
Own Ports.

London, June 10.-The Madrid cores
pondent of the Daily News telegraphlng
by way of Hondaye, France, says:
THE message to the government from
Captain General Augusti as to the situa-
tion at Manila was held back. and 1t IS
alleged, was greatly toned down for pub
lication. 1t aroused the national anger
for the Spanish cling instinctively TO the
Philippines, though they are ready
enough to abandon Cuba, which is re-
garded as monster that yearly devours
the youth of Spain.
Clearly there is no alternative but a
surrender to Admiral Dewey. The gov
ernment seems unable to take resolu-
tion but drifts and hopes something VIII

over the possibility of an American at
tack upon some Spanish ports. Captain

he will then proceed to Corunna. Peo-

cent meeting of the State Board of
Health the quarantine regulations were
revised and the lines more tightly drawn.
The State health officers say every effort
will be made to conhnc the fever to Nc
Henry and no one will be allowed to

BASEBALL MEN IN WINTER TIME
Session Of the MaEnates Gives Fam
dom a Chance to Hold Breath
Again I'm Anticipation.

The annual conference Of the base ball
powers of the country. the meeting OF the
National League and National Association
OF Players Base Ban Clubs, will take place
on next Tuesday afternoon in New York.
This, the twenty-seventh conclave of the
league and the eighth Of the association, Is
likely to breed many surprises and not a few
changes. The tOpsy-turvy tangle in St.
Louis. the desire of the club owners to put a
winner In New York, the future Of the Cleve-
land club, the negotiations for the Louis
VILE franchise. the unprofitableness Of the
past season and rowdylsm are among the is
sues Of moment that win come up before this
meeting.
In connection with the latter item, there
will be an effort made to rescind the Brush
rule. At least two clubs have expressed a
longing to go back to the hning system. 1t
Is, however. considered unlikely that this
will be done. On the other hand, the board
Of discipline. consisting Of Stearns, Kraut-
hon and Kramer, has determined to resign
unless they are given more power. There
is no doubt that the indulgence Of players in
low-necked language and bar-room tactics
on and Off the field has had as much to do
with the decrease in attendance as the war.
Therefore, If the league permits these three
nonpartlsan base ball judges to withdraw
for the reason mentioned, such action will
be construed by the public as evidence that
the magnates do not care to make further

BITS Of. MISCELLANEOUS SPORT
Columbia Proposes to Have Ed Han.
Ion to Coach It's VARSITY Crew
for the Next Race.

Columbia university Is talking Of secur-
ing Edward Hanlon as its rowing coach. If
he should be chosen, additional interest
would attach to the race between the Blue
and the White crew and Cornell, as Han
lon and Courtney are old-time rivals. In
fact intercollegiate rowing regattas would
consist Of q pitting Of aquatic
cracks against each other, as pro-
fessional coaches seem to be the
rage Just now. o'Dea at Harvard, Ward
at Penn, Courtney at Cornell and HanIon
at Columbia would make a veritable big
four. Yale capno yet be included, for they
are wondering still at New Haven how Bob
Cooke place will be filled. The poor sue
cess Of the eleven this year, partially as
signed to the lack Of a head coach, is likely
to force the athletic council to secure an
instructor in aQuatics.
There II said to be a probability that row.
ing may be added to the college sports at
the University Of Kansas and that a crew
may be added to the list Of varsity athletic
teams. For q mile and a half on the Kaw
river is a good boating course which could
be utilized. It is probable, however, that
the aquatics, II installed, will consist Of
regattas between class teams.

eleven points, a player bids for and makes
1t. Does 1t put him out. or is he required
to make the remaining seven points?-A
Subscriber.
you bid and make four you count only four
points. Consequently, according to this
rule, the player Is not out in your first
question and must make seven more points
In your second. However, 1t is quite COM
mon to make a rule that II the bidder bids
and makes four he goes out whatever his
score. although this method is not often
used with only two players in the game.
If such a rule was understood in the above
game, the bidder goes out.

PIERCE, Neb., Dec. 2.-To the Sporting
Editor OF The Bee: In a recent foot ball
game at this place an objection was raised
by our opponents to the placement OF our
men on defense. When they were in pos
session Of the ball we placed our half backs
on the line. Is this lawful? We commended
that 1t was, and / cannot find anything in
the rules to the contrary. 2. Also, can the
quarter back advance the ball, providing he
allows a third man to simply touch II, say
with a finger or hand?-Foot Ball Player.
Ans.-1. Certainly. On defense you may
have the whole team on the line. 2. Sec
tion e Of rule 16 states: The man who
first receives the ball when It Is snapped

the line OF scrimmage unless he has re-
gained 1t after 1t has been passed to and
has touched another player. A simple

MICROBES,

\ The microscope has opened to our vision q
world OF animated ~nature-microbes. These
micro organisms, while for the most part
harmless, are In many cases the direct
cause Of disease and death. While the gen.
eral name microbe Is employed. a special
\ one II given according to the shape, manner
. and habits of the germ. as bacillus, coccus.
bacterium, tinea, etc.
The microbe which causes suppuration 10
spherical, like q berry (coccus); that OF
typhoid fever is rodlike (bacillus), while
tinea "a worm) is the cause Of diseases re-
sulting In badness.
1t has been claimed that all diseases are
caused by microbes, but this cannot be DEM
ons.rated. Where a disease is contagious
Its bacterial origin cannot be proved. Dis.
eases OF the scalp, as well as many others,
are contagious, consequently their bacterial
origin Is unquestionable. The cause OF
many diseases is but a history of the life and
habits of the germ. In ague we have an
illustration Of this which has been brought
to our knowledge by the microscope. This
is probably true of all other diseases which
can be traced to a microbe. These micro
organisms are 30 exceedingly minute Q-5OO0
Of an inch in diameter) that they will easily
pass through the blood and pores OF the
skin. They are seen to move, by the aid
Of the microscope, so they migrate through
the system and lodge wherever a suitable
soil Is found for their growth. Not all per-
sons are liable to contract diseases by the
, germ being brought in contact with the
scalp. but this is frequently the case and Is
always the cause of the diseases.
When a microbe enters a hair follicle
there are signs Of irritation manifested by
itching. Directly the nutriment Of the hair
is affected, which causes the formation OF
dandruff and the loss Of hair. These are
the first symptoms that appear, and II an
application is made early which will destroy
the microbes a permanent cure will be the
result, and the disease will be at an end,
but should they be allowed to multiply and
continue indefinitely total badness will be
the result. Our Danderine has q direct ana
specific action In all such cases. 1t de-
stroys the microbes with exacting rapidly
and Is not injurious to the scalp or hair.
Its applications are delightfully."- healing.
cooling and invigoratlng to both the hair
and the scalp.
1t has cost us time, money and much labor
to perfect this preparation, and you can ex.
pect to receive from its use the marvellous
results that We claim for 1t. Danderine IL
the only specific in the world that produces
capillary attraction and natural effulgence.
1t thickens the hair and invigorates the
growth decidedly. II you have any scalp
or hair affection you will do well to give this
excellent preparation a trial.
