THE RISING TIDE OF EXPORTS.

The foreign merchandise trade
statement of the United States for
December shows no diminution n the
piling up Of heavy balances in our
favor. The exports Of that month
were $4,000, 900 greater than the i'm
ports, and this balance Of trade in our
favor is larger than in the last month
of 1896. The complete calendar year
shows us as having sold nearly eleven
hundred millions worth Of goods
ninety three millions more than in
1896, and exceeding our purchases of
foreign goods by three hundred and
fifty six millions. This marks a high
record in profitable trade. Back in
1888 we imported some thirty three
millions more goods than we export
ed: since then we have had balance
in our favor, although in 1895 this was
but twenty three millions.
Considering the offsets in the shape
of remittances for interest and divi
dends on American securities owned
abroad, expenses Of our heavy for
eign travel each summer and the pay
ments for European holdings Of our
securities pressed for sale here dur
ing our panic and ensuing depres-
sion, the fact is plain that in many of
the last ten years our balance of
trade was but nominal, 50 far as it re-
fected the conditions of indebted
ness between US and the world. How
ever, our revival has been speedy.
The two great years, 1896 and 1897,
have rolled up an enormous balance
in our favor, much of which remains
abroad, where our funds are employ
ed fully as profitably as they could
be at home.
We have taken and paid for mil
lions on millions of bonds and stocks,
and now that revival Of credit and
confidence are here, we have an
enormous credit balance in trade with
Europe, practically free; that is, the
pressure of securities has ended and
our gains on foreign trade now count
directly to our financial benefit. The
results are seen in an Overfo wing
treasury gold reserve and in the al
most abnormally easy money mar
kets. 1t is difficult to employ the
vast capital now freed from fear of
currency tinkering and seeking in
vestment in American industries,
while our foreign credits rarely have
been SO strong as now.-Transcript

The launching of the Japanese war

The launching of the Japanese war
ship Kasagi, at the Cramp ship-yard
this week, is an event of more than
ordinary interest. The Kasagi is the
first foreign warship launched in this
country for 20 years, and she is a
powerful vessel of high speed. If the
peace can be preserved in the far East
for two years more, Japan will have
a navy which will count powerfully
in any adjustments which may be
made.

among the State press seems to be to
see how we'll it can get through the

1t is hoped that no early discussion

which has been experienced in this
state for the last few years in regard
to the governor question. Let the
matter be postponed until May at

We Know
BY Experience

Wise men use the experience OF others
and make it their own.
Those who have taken Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla are the ones who are competent to
speak OF its merits.
Thousands of these people say Hoods
Sarsaparilla has cured them.
The testimonials of cures by Hoods
constitute vast mass Of testimony which
proves the power of this medicine to cure
great variety of diseases.
These cures often seem marvellous, yet
they are perfectly natural and are easily
explained. They are the necessary result
OF purifying and enriching the blood.
Pure blood is the foundation of health,
Hoods Sarsaparila is the One True Blood
Purifier and cures disease by purifying
and enriching the blood.
1t possesses peculiar curative power,
that is, it cures when other medicines
cannot cure, because it is peculiar in COM
bination, proportion and process.
That is all there is to be explained about
the cures by Hoods Sarsaparilla.
II you have faithfully tried Hoods Sar-
saparilla you know how it is yourself; IL
you have not tried it, why not do so todayF
al have been troubled with scrofula all
my life, and it affected my eyes so that
was obliged to remain in dark room. I
began taking Hoods Sarsaparilla. Now
my eyes are so strong that the light never
troubles me, and my health is good"

strewn win Dead.

ALBARA CAMP, April 9-Mahmoud' s
zariba, rifle pits and intrenchments are
literally chock full of dead while the
ground outside the zariba on the south side
is covered with hundreds of bodies. The
most striking feature of the engagement
was the picturesque storming of the zariba.
General Hunter himself, cheering, with he'll
met in hand, led the Soudanese and Egyp-
tan troops to the zariba. They lost heavily
in the rush. In recognition of their signal
gallantry the Sirdar, General Sir Herbert
Kitchener, Professionally promoted on the
field at the close Of the battle the sergeant
major of each native battalion which
crossed the zariba to a subaltern rank.
Major General Gataere led the British bril-
gade, and, accompanied by Private Cross,
of the Cameron Highianders, was the first
to reach the zariba. Private Cross bay
oneted a big Dervish who was aiming point
blank at General Gatacre Piper Stewart,
while leading the Cameron Highlanders,
was killed, seven bullets passing through
his body. Piper Mackenzie, of the Seaforth
Highlanders, bears the marks of six bullets,
but is practically unwounded. Numbers of
officers, among them Colonel Money, of the
Cameron Highlanders Ehad bullets through
their helmets aThea7ast1words of Captain
Urquhart, of the Cameron Highlanders,
who was among those killed, were: Never
mind me. lads; go on"
The Sirdar, after the battle, said to Col
Money, referring to the slow, steady adj
vance of the Cameron Highlanders under
the whitening Dervish fire: 1T was one of
the finest feats performed for many years.
You ought to be proud of such regiment"
There was an impressive scene this after
noon when three British officers and eigh-
teen men were buried in front of the zariba
where they fell. All the available officers
and attachments from the various bat
talions were present The Soudanese band
and the Highland pipers played a lament.
The Soudanese troops celebrated the victory
by singing, dancing and drum beating.
