PROTECT THE PACIFIC COAST.
The Big Battleship Oregon VIII Not
he Taken From Western Waters.

New York, March 1T has been de-
cided by the navy departul to keep on
the Pacific coast the full force of naval
vessels now there, says the Washington
correspondent of the Herald Navy de
partment officials recognize the fact that
the strength of the North Atlantic squad
ron would be strengthened by attaching
the battleship Oregon to Rear Admiral
Sicard's command, but they appreciate the
out assistance of this class, Just as they
appreciate the Importance of defending
the ports by vessels of the monitor type
There are now stationed on the Pacific
coast the Oregon, the coast defense YES
sells Monterey and MOnadnock, and the
training ship Adams. The Oregon, which
is at Puget sound, will be ordered to pro
coed to San Francisco harbor. and her
place in northern waters will probably be
taken by the Monterey. The department
recently directed the Monadnock to be
laid in reserve. but these orders have not
been carried out and she will probably be
sent to San Diego.
Besides these ships, the department has
at Honolulu the cruiser Baltimore and
the gunboat bennington. No orders have
been issued for the return of these vessels
in view of the aspirations of the admins
tration to bring these islands within Amer
lean jurisdiction. The cruiser Alert and
the gunboat Marietta are in Nicaraguan
and Qua temalan waters respectively.
These ships will be ordered to San Fran
cisco if an emergency arises and will hold
themselves in readiness for active service,

The king was returning from Phalen,,
at o'clock in the evening in a landau
accompanied by the Princess Marie, when
two men who were hidden in dita
alongside the road opened fire with gun,
upon the occupants of the carriage. Ths
first shot missed, but the second wound

whipped up his horses and the royal part
dashed away at a gallop. The miscrean,
fired seven more shots after them. mona
of which took effect, and the king and
princess returned unhurt. The kim

of the assaiants knelt in the middle el
the road and aimed straight at the king
who noticed that the mans hand was
shaking. The shot missed, and the king
had a clear view of this man, who, hb
majesty says, was barely 20 years old.
He continued to fire after the carriage
until it was out of range. His companioa
did not leave the ditch.
As soon as the news became known all
the leading politicians fastened to the
palace to express their congratulations,
over the escape of King George and the
princess. The action of his majesty in
shielding the princess at the risk of his
life has aroused great enthusiasm.

At $3.50 o'clock the metropolitan helda
thanksgiving service in the palace. The

MANY HAVE DIED ON THE PASS.
Men Fall From Exposure Trying tn
Reach the kIOndike.

Seattle. Feb 2S.-The steam schooner
Noyo. which has arrived here from Skag-
uay, Alaska, brings news which, if true,
will probably cause international compli-
cations. Parties arriving at Skaguay be-
fore the Mayo left circulated the report
that the Canadian mounted police had
raised the British flag at Summit lake,
which is II miles from Skaguay and II
miles inside of the American line as at
present defined. Captain Lindquist of the
Noyo says the report had not been veri
fed when he left Skaguay, and that he
places but little credence in it.
The Noyo also brings news of many
deaths on the White pass resulting from
cold and exposure.
On Thursday, February Is, the bodies
of five men who had died on the trail
were brought into Skaguay. 1t was i'm
possible to learn their names. All died
from what is called cerebro spinal menin-
gifts, which is quite prevalent in Skag
uay and along the trail. 1t has its origin
III exposure and lack of sufficient cloth
ing to withstand the severe cold.
The Noyo has as passengers three Daw-
sonites. who stopped at Juneau. They
were James BroWnell, Frank Laroy and
l.. r. Flint They are reported to have
brought out about 100000 worth of gold
dust and drafts from the interior. Stormy
weather was encountered by the Noyo.

There is more catarrh in this sec

eases put together, and until the last
few years it was supposed to be incur
able. For great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease, and
prescribed local remedies, and by
constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and, therefore,
requires constitutional treatment.

by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio,

The Sultan and Our Missionaries.

The Porte has demanded the recall of
two American missionaries from the
providence of Aleppo, on the pretext
that their mission for distribution of
relief is likely to cause disturbance.
1.-THE sick man of Europe as he is de-
risively termed, is as unreasonable as
his political health is feeble, As a
bright contrast to his obstinacy and
stupidity, the people of America are &C
knowledging far and wide the beneh-
cence of the mission of Hostetter g Stom-
ach Bitters, namely, to relieve and pre-
vent malaria, rheumatism and kidney
complaint, chronic dyspepsia, constlpa'
ton and liver trouble. The nervous.
the weak and the infirm derive unspeak-
able benefit from its use, and it greatly
mitigates those infirmities specially in
cident to advancing years. Sleep, APP
petite, and a sensation of comfort
throughout the system, ensue upon its
use, which should be regular and per-
sistent. An early resort to this fine pre-
ventive is logically suggested to those
who seek its aid.

Who "giyeth rain on earth"
And makes the hearts of men rejoice
In songs of grateful mirth.
Refrain
Thanks for rain, thanks for rain,
Refreshing thirsty plain;
We raise our thankful songs again
To praise the Lord for rain.
The diamond rain, so pure and sweet,
Hath come in sparkling showers,
To robe the land with verdure new,
With herbs and fruits and flowers.
The dry and parched earth grows glad
For sweet draughts God sends down;
And sings thanksgiving psalms to Him
Who doth with blessings crown.
From glistening groves and moisteneC
fields
Anthems of praise arise;
With natures songs our voices join
To Him who rain supplies.
