Our Growing Navy.

The remarkable rapidity with
which the naval power Of the United
States is being increased at the pres
ent time may be realized when it is
stated their aggregate tonnage far
exceeds that of the vessels building
at any one time during the civil wsr.
The vast construction programme,
says a recent telegram, which has
excited more attention abroad than
at home has been authorized gradu-
ally by congress until the vessels
soon to be completed will place the
United States third in rank among
the sea powers. In addition to the
enormous feet, including auxiliarles,
actually in commission at represent
time, twenty vessels are in various
stages of readiness and the ship
builders are hurriedly gathering the
material for 55 others. OF the So
vessel-, S are to be first class heavily
armored sesgoing battleships, 3S are
torpedo boats, I are monitors and
one is powerful cruiser.

United States Senator J. H. Kyle, in
an interview in The News today,
says:
II repudiate the Populists party
management in this State"
Although still an Independent, he
will oppose the fusion until the State
has been redeemed from the hands
of the element that now controls that
party. He charges his Populists
colleagues in congress with being
unpatrio:ic in not supporting Presi-
dent Mckinley in the war against a
common foe. He says: Il am an
American citizen, proud Of our coun-
try, proud of our president, proud OF
our army and navy, proud of our
flag, and so long as I have breath to
cast vote, it shall be recorded for
my country, come what will"

prostrati0n and numbness of my
right arm and hand so that at times
I could hardly endure the pain, but
that has al passed away. Inow have
a good appetite and am able to do
