Meeting of the Fleets
Cannot Long Be
Delayed.
Confidence Felt That
Simpsons Squadron
Will Easily Win.

Washington, May 23.-The report of
Saturday from Cape Hayden OF a
fight off the Mole st. Nicholas, Haytl,
is contradicted by the naval authorl-
ties here. a dispatch from st.
Pierre, Martinique, reports rumor
that Cervera's fleet was expected to
return to Fort de France to obtain a
supply of coal from Spanish GOLFERS,
said to be on the way, or from the
British steamer Twckehham. This
would seem improbable, if the Span
ish admiral has been able to reach a
Spanish port possessing stock Of
coal, as has been supposed,
Intelligence from San Francisco re-
ports the departure of the cruiser
Charleston for Manila, with muni-
tons and other supplies for Admiral
Dewey, to be followed at once by the
City of Peking, with the first Install
ment of troops.
Stirring news may be expected from
Simpsons fleet at almost any mo-
ment, and until that arrives the feel
ing of anxiety will be intense, al
though there is general coincidence
that it will give a good account OF IT
self in due time.
The work of the censor at the war
news centers is very effective, so
far as information regarding naval
movements is concerned. In the
meantime there is reason to believe
that Admiral SIMPSONS ships are
looking out for Cervera's squadron
with every prospect of finding it, if
they have not done so already. IT.
as now believed, the Oregon has Joined
SIMPSONS fleet, he has been greatly
strengthened for the conflict now
thought to be inevitable within day
or two.
Another fleet is said to be about
ready to leave Cadiz for Cuban waters.
Rumors continue of great naval
battle off Hayti.

SPINAL DISEASE
And Painful Affections Of Nearly
all the Organs Cured by Dr..
Williams Pink Pills.
Nom tie Journal, Detroit, Mich.

"Disease Of the spinal cord ard nervous
prostration, was what the doctors called it al
first" Mrs. Rosa Tapley, of No. 72l Harrison
Street, Ionia, Mich, said yesterday 10 re.
porter, "but it was not long before every
organ and member Of my body was affected.

NOTHING TO BE WASTED.

In good housekeeping, as in nature,
nothing to be wasted. One might
suppose that an old chair had legiti-
mate ending when the seat was quite
gone and the four legs falling apart.
Yet see-the four legs will support n
square board, and when the whole is
stained and vanished there is a most
useful little table for the porch, or,
painted white, 1t may become a stand
to keep close by the sewing chair and
hold the work basket. A second ia
BILE may be evolved by using the
longest spokes of the chair back as
legs, only In this case the shape Of
the tables top had best be triangular,
and for 1t three legs will be sufficient.
This will make very small table,
and need not be stained or painted If
a bright cover is thrown over it, but
its most convenient use will be to
hold light tea kettle at o'clock.
All these handicraft trifles should be
handed over to our amateur carpen-
ters-boys and girls for 1t is the
right of every family of children to
possess n tool chest and work bench
set in the garnet. A tool chest is an
excellent investment in household.

that the temporary appointments

SAILING UNDER SEALED ORDERS

The custom of having warships sail
under sealed orders" has arisen from
the desire of maritime powers to pre-
vent their plans from becoming
known to the enemy. In the Ameri-
can Navy such orders come from the
President, and are delivered to COM
mander of ship or squadron by a
confidential messenger who knows
nothing of their contents. Sometimes
they are in cipher, but they are al
ways sealed with the official seal Of
the Navy Department, and the pack
age cannot be opened until the time
marked on 1t, which is usually several
hours after the hour Of leaving port.
BY this precaution the newspapers are
prevented from disclosing premature
ly movements which may be of the
greatest Importance, and the spies OF
the enemy are rendered useless so far
as their ability to discover the secret
of such movements is concerned. Sail
ing under sealed orders is now the
common naval practice in time OF war
These instructions are found In the
packet of sealed orders which lie
opened when well out to sea.
