London, July 15.-The Hong Kong

AT the same time the German admiral
Informed Admiral Dewey that he has
no intention of giving offense to Amer

replied: Perhaps It would be better il

The Americans hope the Spaniards will
continue their waste of ammunition in

Berlin Hints at Intervention.
The Berlin correspondent of The
Times says: "The German press is ac-
lively discussing the future of the Phil
ippines. The difficulties arising out Of
the present state of things-of which
it is asserted the Americans hardly take
sufficient account-may soon assume
alarming proportions, such, indeed, as
may finally necessitate the interven-
tion of powers whose commercial in
terests in the Island are affected"
The Kreuz Zeitung points out that
American annexation is by no means
necessary and would involve a COM
plete change in Americas naval and
military system. But 1t adds: 1T is
evident that the Monroe doctrine has
been dropped and new policy of i'm
perialism begun. The stars and stripes
will shortly wave over Manila. 1t is
beginning to he universally acknowl-
edged here that Spain can now hon.

How to Look Good,

Good looks are really more than
skin deep, depending entirely on
healthy condition OF all the vital
organs. If the liver be inactive,
you have a bilious look, If your
stomach be disordered you have a
dyspeptic look, if your kidneys be
affected You have pinched look.
Secure good health, and you will
surely have good looks. "Elcc-
trio bitter5" is a good Altoratiye
and Tonic. Acts directly upon
the stomach, liver and kidneys.
Purifes the blood, cures pimples,
blotches and boils, and gives a
good complexion. Every bottle
guaranteed. Sold at Finley's drug
store.

Has ne gone out to meet the foef
Was he with those who narch@i away
TO lay the hated Spanish low?
NAY. he was not among the men
Who shouldered arms and hurried our
with vows TO come home only when
The tricky foe lis put to rout--
The man who wanted blood TO run
IL here and bowling as before.
II seems the fools at washington,
Ignore his plans for making war"
