the scoring. Harvards great speed OF
play, power and concentration of attack,
splendid physical condition and superior
kicking won the game for her easily.

pluck. AT the end they rallied grandly
out of sheer desperation and finished
strong.

marched about the gridiron, followed by
hundreds of Harvard men. AT the con

for the second time since 1855, the throng
burst forth in the refrain Fair Harvard.

SPAIN ENDS NEGOTIATIONS
A RUMORED BREAK IN PARIS.
The American Peace Commission De-
clnred That the United states
Would Keep the Philippines and
Pay Spain Twenty Millions OF
Dollars.

Paris, Nov. 22-The president of the
Spanish peace commission, Montero Rios
has refused to continue negotiations.
The Spanish and American peace COM
missions met in Joint session at 2 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. The Americans de-
clared they must have the entire Philip
pine archipelago, and for a treaty cession
of the islands the Americans rendered to
Spain $2O,00O,OOO. 1t was further de
clared it is the purpose of the United
States to maintain the Philippine islands
as an "open door to the worlds com
merce.
On the terms named the United States
proposes mutual REIMBURSEMENT of all
claims for indemnity, national or person
al, subsequent to the outbreak of the last
Cuban instruction. November % is fixed
as the date on which the United States
commission desired definite response to
today's propositions and all other sub
iects at issue here. 1t is also declared the
United States desires TO treat on religious
freedom in the Caroline islands as agreed
upon between the United States and Spain
in 1886, and also in the acquisition of one
of the Caroline islands for an American
naval station, and of cable landing rights
at other places in Spanish jurisdiction,
and the revival of the certain Spanish
American treaty as heretofore in force.
The Americans also refuse to arbitrate
article of the peace protocol bearing
upon the future disposition and control of
the Philippine islands The meeting was
then adjourned until Wednesday.
Cabinet Minister Talks.
Washington, Nov. ga member Of
the cabinet, in an interview yesterday
afternoon, Immediately after the an
nouncement of the breaking off of peace
negotiations made the following state
ment as to the effect of the discontinue
tion of negotiations;
THE action of the Spanish commission
ers will not affect the purpose OF the
American government. Our government
will still assert precisely what it has
claimed, and it will proceed to carry these
claims into execution. / don't believe
there will be any concession on one, and
that is from the American side, nor actual
resistance on the other. 1t will simply
remain for the American government to
hold what it has proposed to hold, for it
is NV practically in possession, and all
that remains is to make this possession
an actual fact. While the Spanish gov
eminent declined to acquiesce, it can not
interpose any obstacle, and the only re-
suit will be it will be compelled later to
recognize what it refuses to acquiesce in
at present.
Il say this on the assumption that the
notification given means really rupture
of negotiations, and not simply move
ment to take them up in new way. One
significant effect is that this action now
relieves this government of the whole
question OF compensation for the Philip
ninesn

Il Is not a common occurrence that
friendly word should be the means of CIV
ing nearly forty years of happiness and
health to the person needing the advice it
carried. This was the case with Mary
Lingard. At twenty-five she was dragging
out her days in misery. AT sixty-one she
finds herself so active and strong she can
do work that would shame many younger
woman, and looks back on thirty-six
happy, hea1thfu1 years of industry. But
let her tell her story:
"Thirty-six years agoI had greattrouble
with my liver. The doctors allowed that
there were tumors growing on it, and they
b1istered my side in an effort to give me

between the pain in my side and the
blisters I was in constant misery, and
work was a drag to me, with no prospect
of relief; fortunately for me, however,
friend advised me to take DR.. Ayers Sar-
sapari11a, and finally persuaded me to take
q regular course of it. When 1 first COM
menced taking the Sarsapari11a my side
was so painful that could not fasten my
dress, and for time I did not get any
relief, but my friend advised me to per-

come it did. This happened, as say,
thirty-six years ago. My liver has never
troubled me since, and during these years
have passed through the most critical
period of woman's life without any par
ficu1ar trouble, and to-day, at sixty-one
years of age, am active and strong. and

MARY ItINGARD, Woodstock, Ont.
DR.. Ayers Sarsaparilla has won Its way
to every corner of the world by the praise
of its friends those who have tried it and
who know they were cured by the use of
the remedy. There is nothing so strong
as this personal testimony. It throws all
theories and fancies to the winds and
stands }solidly upon the rock of experi-
ence challenging every skeptic with
positive ~ knOlo." Ayers SarSaparil1a
with its purifying and vitalizing action on
the blood is a radical remedy for every
form of disease that begins in tainted or
impure blood. Hence tumors, sores.
ulcers, boils, eruptions and similar dis
eases yield promptly to this medicine.
Some cases are more stubborn than others,
b ut persistence with DR.. Ayers Sarsapa-
ril1a usually results in a complete cure.
Mary Lingard began with a bottle, and
went on to a course of DR.. Ayers Sarsapa--
ril1a. When she was cured she realized
that a medicine that could cure disease
could also prevent it. So she took couple
of bottles each spring and kept in perfect
health. There are thousands of similar
cases on record. Some of these are

vantages for it, but the general run of
Wheelmen are loath to believe it, The
majority of wheelman are always willing
to adopt any new idea for its advantages
but in the case of the chainless they are
tinnid. 1.-THE cliainless is really IN I'M
provement on the chain wheel there is
no question about its future popularity,
| but at this time this is doubted. 1t Is
predicted that it will take at least Il year
to satisfy the wheeling public OF its
worth Until then it is not thought that
the chainless will create a sensation.
The sixty days guarantee is thought by
dealers to be hurting sales, the idea be-
ing that riders do not care to get wheel
now and wait two months until the
guarantee has run out before having a
chance to de in. The consequence is
that some concerns are extending the
J old guarantee of six months. AS they
will discontinue this in the spring and
return to the sixty days guarantee,
quite an inducenent is offered to riders
to buy now.
Judge Hazen, in the Kansas State Dis

The future of the gear case is as much
in doubt as that Of the chainless bicycle.
Novelties such as the gear cases might
become popular in any other country but
this, and for this reason it is not known
at this time just what part it will take in
the riding season Of 1898. 1t has the
very good advantage of keeping the
chain free from mud or dust and Of pro-
tecting the sprockets, but still wheelmen
are inclined to consider it seriously. It is
too clumsy and makes the wheel look
like a truck, they say, and besides it
adds extra weight to the wheel. From
this it would seem that it's greatest draw
back lies in its weight
