The Battleship Oregon

Has made more kinds of records for
the U. S. Navy in its $1,000 miles trip
than was ever dreamed of. Judging
from the demand for it, that little So
page, vest pocket size, Army and
Navy book just published by the
Northern Pacific is making great
record too. The requests for it reach
the N. p. Passenger Department at st.
Paul in large numbers from every part
Of the United States. This is trib.
ute to wide advertising as we'll as to
the enterprise of the company and the
value of the book. Mr.. Chas. S. Fee,
the General Passenger Agent at st.
Paul, Mimi. will send the book upon
receipt of ten cents.

IT'S EASY TO DYE.
Home Dying With Diamond Dyes is
Pleasant and Profitable.

Beautiful and Brilliant CoIors That VIII
Not Fade-D.amond Dyes Have Special
Co,ors for Cotton and Mixed Goods
how Wise Women Economize in Hard
Times-A Ten Cent Package of Dia-
mond Dyes Often Saves Ten Dollars.
In these days of enforced economy it
should be pleasure to any woman to
learn how she can save the cost OF a new
gown for herself and suit for the little
one, or can make her husbands faded
clothing look like new. Diamond Dyes,
which are prepared especially for home
use, will do all this. They are so sim
pie and easy to use that even child can
get bright and beautiful colors by follow
ing the directions on each package.
There is no need of soiling the hands
with Diamond Dyes; just lift and stir
the goods with two sticks while in the
dye bath, and one will not get any stains
or spots.
In coloring dresses, coats and all large
articles, 10 get full and satisfactory
color, it is absolutely necessary to have q
special dye for cotton goods and differ
ent dye for woolen goods. This is done in
Diamond Dyer, and before buying dyes,
one should know whether the article to
be colored is cotton or wool, and get the
proper dye. Do not buy dyes that claim
to color everything, for their use will re-
suit in failure.

JAPAN's ACTION SIGNIFICANT.
By Holding Wei Hal Wei 1t Secures Foot
hold ON Mainland.

Washington, February 10. - Neither
the Chinese nor Japanese legation here
has received notice of Japan's purpose
to hold Wei-Hai-Wei. 1t is stated at the
latter that Wei-Hai-Wei is now occupied
by the Japanese under the terms Of the
peace settlement, by which this strong
point is to remain in the possession OF
Japan until the full indemnity is paid.
Of this idemnity, a specific payment OF
13, 900, 600 taels has already been paid for
Japan's evacuation of Port Arthur. An
other 100 million taels has been paid in
bulk as part of the idemnity. Still an
other 1OO,OO00O0 taels were included.
This last was to be spread over six years,
and the first installment of about l4,-
600, 900 taels each. Legation officials say
that if the reported arrangement Is
made, it will apply to these five install
mentS.
In other quarters the reported action
of Japan is considered as most signil-
cant, as it accomplished the purpose
Japan had in view when the war closed,
namely to secure permanent foothold
in the mainland of Asia. Russia assisted
this extension of Japan from her present
island condition and it required the COM
bined protest of Russia, Germany and
France to induce Japan to give up Port
Arthur and her foothold on the Lilo Tung
Peninsula. Wei-Hai-Wai is less import
ant as a strategic position but it has
always been held by China as second
only to Port Arthur as naval station.
The defensive works, although badly
shattered from the naval battle at that
point, have been kept in fair state of
preservation by the Japanese forces now
maintained there.

Bodine and Mrs Lloyd and the latter 8
two children were not SO fortunate and

A. NJ. Shelton and It. s. O'Ferrall,
private secretaries to the two Congress
men and Captain Williams, a door keeper
at the House of Representatives, were al
SO badly affected. The physicians sum-
moned have been unable as yet to tell the
cause of the poisoning.

tance, one to issue duplicate check and

rule against the discussion of irrevelant
subjects, when Mr.. Handy, Democrat,
Of Maryland, attempted to reply on the
floor during the consideration of those
bills, to a letter recently written by
Thomas F. Bayard, secretary of state un-
der the Cleveland administration, in de-
nunciation of the free silver democracy.
Roll call followed roll call al! day long
and partisan feeling reached high pitch.
Finally when il became evident that
no progress could be made with the bllls
presented, an adjournment was taken
until Monday.
