,litectiy from The two men nat there
nas been no friction between them, and
that Secretary Alger has no intention
u leaving the cabinet.
-
The politicians are all at sea as TO the
issue upon which the congressional
campaign shall be fought-that Is, ma
tional issues; there are, OF course, local
issues Of more or less importance In all
districts. Talk with the men In charge
Of the committee headquarters In
Washington makes il plain that they
are watching each other, each hoping
that the other will take some step
that a be used a. an issue by the
other. The war will be used to q GER
tain extent, but the active participa-
lion Of all parties in the war, both in
the field and in congress, will make
that a very limited issue indeed. The
anti republicans will try to arouse OPP
position to the wal revenue law, by
claiming that it imposes more burdens
upon the poor than upon the rich, but
s. far there Is little indication that it
will be very successful. The silver
question, like the poor, we always have
with us, but there is no such interest
in it as was displayed two years ago.
The president Is determined hat the
Philippine question shall not be made
an issue and IL will not be difficult for
him to succeed. He will simply have
to keep his mouth shut. The admins
tration cannot be arraigned for a Phil.
ippine policy until it is known what
the policy Is, and that will not be until
the demand the American peace COM
missioners make concerning the Philip.
pines become public property, and that
is not likely to be until after the con.
gressional campaign.

BE CAREFUL IN HANDLING REL
TCG
Innocent-Looking Shells That Have
Mischief Left in Them.

One result of the war with Spain has
been to flood this country with relics
gathered at Santiago and elsewhere by
American soldiers and correspondents,
which they have proudly distributed
among their friends ON their return.
These relics, says the Washington
Star. vary in character from a Cuban
machete to fragments of shells which
exploded in the fierce fighting of July
1 and ?. The greater proportion of
the curiosities are Mauser cartridges,
some in their loading slips, others
loose, some empty, others loaded and as
capable of doing damage as ever. Their
percussion caps are in place, and it re-
qulres a relatively slight blow on the
proper place to explode them. A word
of warning is seasonable perhaps, to
prevent tragedies growing out of the
inordinate curiosity of some people,
particularly of small children, who are
always irresistiby attracted by fire
arms and their missiles. One of these
loaded Shells il is understood. fell out
OF boys pocket in one of the public
schools Of a city, the other day, and
CHANGING to strike on the cap against
q pl oJttllpu Oh the IRON HtdQQdlu OIL ms
desk, exploded with sufficient force to
send the bail through the flooring
above. Fortunately no damage was
done, but it is clear that death might
readily have followed this chance ex-
plosion had the ball taken d slightly
different course. In one other way
these cartridges may be a source of
danger The balls are not so tightly
embedded in the shells that they can
not be worked out by the fingers. This
is one of the distinguishing features of
the Mauser shell over that Of the Krag.
which requires a plier to extract the
ball This facility in unloading the
cartridge offers temptation to the Gu
rious to take out the celebrated
'smokeless powder from the shell and
experiment with it, 1t will not ex-
plode in the open, but it viii flame up
suddenly, and is apt to burn the exper-
imenter badly, perhaps binding him.
These warnings are worthy of atten-
ton by parents and others. The relics
should be safely guarded if kept, and
at all events. placed out of the reach
Of the little folks, who naturally have
no discretion in handling such things.

LoTHROP's OPERA HOUSE,

This organization, though a stranger
to Worcester, has for several seasons
toured the Middle States with crafty

Pennsylvania and Ohio, Manager Elroy

ledge the superiority of his forces in
the repertoire line, and backed by
strong press notices that paint the viz

colors, he will begin at Lothrops to-
morrow flight a selection Of the best
modern melodramaS. The opening bill
is THE White Squadron" James w,

round the Brazilian riots Of three or four
years ago. Mr. Harkins is also repre-
scented later in the week by The Mid

one which brought him fame as a dra.-
matiat. BY a strange freak of chance
il has never yet been given in Wor-

ONE OF THE BEST FEATURES
of the Pyramid Pile Cure

Is the fact that it cures every form of
niles without one particle of pain. This
desirable point is not obtained by the
use of injurious opiates, which simply
deaden and paralyze the nerves of the
parts and make matters worse in the
long run. But it is done solely by its
remarkable healing and soothing effects.
And while it thus gives immediate re-
lief. at the same time the disease is not
merely checked, but radical cure is
rapidly accomplished
And the point we want to make clear
is that all this is done without a particle
of pain.
This fact is one reason for the great
nonularitv of the Pyramid Pile Cure,
and constitutes one very great differ
ence between it and almost any other
kind of treatment for piles
Every kind of surgical operation for
niles is excruciatingly painful, besides
andangering the life Of the patient and

ANARCHY IN PHILIPPINES.
Admiral Dewey Is Powerless to Re
store Order.

Hongkong, May II, 6 p. m, Green
witch time.-The British gun vessel Lin
net, has arrived here with news from
the Philippines. She left Manila on
Monday last and reports that the in
surgents are uncomfortable. The whole
country, it appears, is in q state of an
archy and Rear Admiral Dewey is
powerless to restore order. The Off
GERS of the Linnet add that even if
Spanish rule is abolished, it will re-
quire large force with special train
ing to restore order in the interior. In
the meantime the Spaniards in Manila
refuse to submit and Admiral Dewey
is not willing to lombard the town. He
hopes to starve the place into submits
sion but the SpaniardS are confident of
being able to hold out. They allege
that they have ample supplies for $1,000
regular troops and thousands of volun-
teers beyond the range of the United
States warships and they are defying
the Americans in the hope of Euro
pean Intervention.
Two German warships, one French
warship and a warship of Japan are
now at Manila. A Russian vessel is ex-
pected there shortly.
Strong anti-British feeling exists
among the populace at Manila and the
people are desperate and starving.

STILL DESTROYING SPANIARDS.
New York, May PA Hongkong
special of this date says that a trading
vessel from the Philippines reports
having witnessed the destruction of
Spanish warship by the United States
glinboat Concord at Iloilo. The fight
is said to have lasted two hours, at the
end of which time the Spaniard went
down with colors flying. There were
no casualties on board the Concord,
and no damage was done to the gun
beat
There are, it is alleged, only two other
Spanish war vessels in Asiatic waters,
and one of these is in dry dock at
Hongkong, while the cruiser Boston is
searching for the other, under orders
to engage and sink it.

iards appear in force off their coast
and proceed to destroy the summer re-
sorts and small craft there.
Mr.. Allen, the newly-inducted as
sistant secretary of the navy, being a
Massachusetts man, had to bear the
brunt of a score of applications for pro-
lection that come to the department
from all points on the coast from Maine
to Connecticut. The department has
done what it regards as necessary in
assigning the monitors and some YES
sells of the Mosquito fleet to the pa
troll of this coast and in holding Com
modore Schley's magnificent squadron
at Hampton Roads ready to fly at 20
knots speed to any point on the coast
that may be threatened.

she had not sighted the Spanish cape

continued for several days and covered
hundreds Of miles around the points
where the fleet would naturally have
first appeared
A dispatch to the World from Lon

in view of the fact that the report was
issued just about the time when the

touched regularly at the Canaries and.
Cape de Verde, when asked whether
any of his incoming steamers had re-
ported having sighted the squadron,
said:
mo: for my part, however. believe
the squadron has returned to Spain, as
the Spanish government has been un-
able to surnount the coaling difficulty
attendant upon dispatching ships
across the Atlantic. They could not
engage the United States fleet on ar
irving at the other side, if they had ex-
hausted a good part of their coal, as
their ilulls would stand so high in the
water that their unarmored parts
would be dangerously exposed"
A dispatch to the Herald from Glib
raltar says: 1t is believed that the
Spanish squadron from the Cape de
Verde islands will join the one at Ca
diz and all move together about the
beginning of June, unless the Ameri-
cans come to Cadiz in the meantime.
Spain wants to gain time and have
the American troops reach Cuba as far
into the summer as possible.

WAR IN THE PACIFIC.
Dewey Instructed to Finish the Span
iardS.

New York, May PA special to the
Herald from Washington says:
There is reason to believe that the
further instructions sent to Rear Adj
miral Dewey via the dispatch boat Nc
Culloch, which returned to Manila from
Hongkong, required him Immediately to
destroy any other vessels or fortifica-
tons which Spain has in the Philip
pines.
You must capture vessels or destroy
them" was the direction given to Rear
Admiral Dewey before the battle of Ma
Mia bay. These instructions were due
to the desire of the authorities to re-
move from the Pacific the Spanish
fleet. and thus prevent the enemy from
harassing American commerce in these
waters. 1t is doubly necessary that it
