The fact that the President has decided
to order an investigation of the charges
which have been made against the War
Department in connection with the con-
duct of the war and the care of the SOL
diers, does not necessarily imply that he
believes them. 1t means that he thinks it is
due to the country and the interests of JUS
tice that an investigation should be made
to discover how much truth there is in the
charges. and if they are true. where the
responsibility rests. The Journal concurs in
this view, though as it has said before it
believes an investigation may show that
the responsibility is divided and due more to

The Philippine islands commission in Eu-
rope wants President Mckinley to expel the
friars from the islands. From all accounts
the friars are a terrible source of immoral
ity and degradation among the natives, but
under our system of religious liberty they
could not be expelled, even from such por-
ton of the islands as the United States may
take possession Of But they can probably
be got rid of in another way. When Span
ish rule is ended and the support of the state
is Withdrawn their power TO brutalize and
impoverish the natives will be ended, and
they will doubtless leave of their own ac-
cord What is said here does not refer to
the Catholic priests I'm the islands. many of
whom are good, self-sacrificing men, but to
q class of monks who said. by those who
have lived in the Philippines, to be fomen-
tiers and disseminators of moral pestilence.

The fact that several dollars spent for the
right medicine has effected cure where
skilled and expensive physician aided by
the latest and most ingenious instrument OF
science, had failed, is matter Of much
importance.
Important because it opens to downcast
sufferers a new, inexpensive and sure
avenue to the restoration of health and the
foil enjoyment of the pleasures of life.
Such was the experience of Mrs. Ada
M. Herr, Of 439 North Charlotte Street,
Lancaster, Pa.
From a weak, nervous, responding per-
son, she was made a strong, active woman
and cheerful, helpful wife.
Her story Is interesting.
Mrs. Herr suffered terribly from female
disorders. Her nerves became unstrung,
cramps griped her and caused the most
intense pain.
So weak and physically demoraGzed
was she, that the slightest labor wearied
her and household duties were burden.
The most alarming symptoms Of her
malady were the frequent fainting spells
that afflicted her.
In the midst of her work, or in con-
versation, dizziness would come Upon her
and she would fall PROSTATE IN a swoon.
She consulted reputable physician. He
diagnosed her case and prescribed the usual
remedies.
Instead Of improving, she continued to
grow worse the ailment that was robbing
her life Of the joys Of young womanhood
became more pronounced.

From a Special Correspondent
By NATHAN ALLEN, Secretar

Washington, May 4, 3 p. m.-The
officials in Washington may have re-
ceived some news from the Asiatic
squadron, but nothing has been made
public. Active preparations are being
made, however, to dispatch the Charles
ton at once with arms and ammunition
as well as soldiers to assist in keeping
the flag waving over the Philippines.
President Dole has sent long COM
munication to President Mckinley Of
fering the use of the Hawaiian islands
as a coaling station and base of sup
plies and this offer may be accepted
and all plans changed in accordance.
At the Navy department all is ex-
element and turmoil. The North
Atlantic squadron has left Key West
and is proceeding eastward. Reliable
officials say that the destination of the
squadron is Porto Rico and that all
Spanish Notifications will be attacked
and destroyed in order to prevent them
from being used as base of supplies
by the enemy. Sampson will be joined
in short time by the flying squadron
and the entire feet will meet the
Spanish fleet for a decisive action.
Rioting continues in Madrid notw it'll
standing the reports sent out. The
mob not only have insulted high Off
Gals of the administration, but have
assaulted British vessels because that
country has shown friendly feeling
toward the United States. This may
cause grave diplomatic relations be-
tween Spain and Great Britain.

No discovcry of modem times has proved
such boon to women as Dr. Iliams' Pink
Pills for Pale People. Acting directly on
the blood and nerves, invigofating the body,
regulating the functions, they restore the
strength and health to the exhausted woman
when every effort of the physician proves
unavailing.
These pills are recognized everywhere
as a specific for diseases of the blood and
nerves. For paralysis, locdmotof ataxias
and other diseases long supposed incurable,
they have proved their efficacy 10 thousands
of cases. Truly they are one Of the greatest
blessings ever bestowed upon mankind

A very pleasant surprise party was
given last evening by the friends of
Harvey Larson, who dropped in on him
very unexpectedly and assisted in
celebrating his twenty second birthday.
Over fifty guests were present and they
made the house ring with games and
music until midnight, when a supper
fit for king was served. After supper
the frivolity continued until early
morning, when the guests returned to
their homes wishing Mr.. Larson many
more happy birthday anniversaries.
