Electric Bitters.

Electric Bitters is medicine for any season, but perhaps more generally needed in the Spring, when the languid exhausted feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid and sluggish aud the need of a tome alterative is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long and perhaps fatal bilious levers. No medicine will act more sure- ly in counteracting and freeing the system from the lpaIarial poison. Head. ache, indigestion, constipation, diZzi- ness yield to Electric Bitters. Only 50e per bottle at J. E. Haybert's drug- store,

The American Volunteer.

The Americah sailor has reaped the larger share of laurels in the war so far, not from innate superiority, but from the advantage in opportunity. The American sailor like the American so dier, is a volunteer, and when the soldier is called upon to show his fight ing ualites-couarge, endurance and intelligence-he will make quite as brilliant display as the sailor has done. Deweys will be found in every division aud Hobsons in every company.
 The American volunteer soldier has, it must be remembered, over hun dred years of history. He has, for q long time, had reputation to support and he has never been nnminaful of it. he only Americans who disparage the capacity of the volunteers for future operations are those who are needlessly ignorant of the past deeds of the volunteers. One of the marked charac teristics of American volunteers which has distinguished them in every war is the readiness with which they acquire the drill, the habits and tue knowledge of the trained soldier. As in the case of Napoleon's s soldiers. thousands of them have learned their exercises on their way to the battle field. Thousands of American volun- teers have marched directly from the camp of instruction to the battle field and in an emergency can do it again. The military critics who insist that weary months will be necessary to lit the American volunteers to meet the Spanish CT any other foe do not regard the lesson of the past.
 The story of the volunteers of the war of 1898 is now being told by them selves in the tens of thousands of letters which are.sent out daily from the great camps at Chickamauga, at Tampa and other points in Florida, at Camp 4 ger and at San Fre ncisco, the rendezvous at Manila expedition. These letters tell the old story, the
 
 story of other wars, the story of young, intelligent students of the military art, beset with the usual difficulties but surmounting them one by one with cheerfullness and even gayety, Every day sees some advancement, some progress toward a more perfect equip ment. The recruit of today will be- come fair soldier in a month, and something like veteran in two. In sixty days from the time he takes iu his hands satisfactory weapon he will be ready to meet any enemy with an arm of no better character.
 The caculations in regard to the American volunteer in the present War are based on his character in & not very romote past. The Union and Confederate soldiers of war thirty years ago were, as a rule, raw volun- teers, in the beginning, and their ser vice excited admiration among soldiers the world over. It is believed that the sons of these volunteers of lS6 l-oo. now in arms for their country, have inherited the sodiery qualities of their fathers, and will lealn the soldiers business and follow it as vigorously as did their sires, and that when they come to battle, not with Americans, but with Spaniards, they will make record 10 excite the surprise and admir- ation of the world.

1t May Do as Much for You.

Mr. Fred Miller. of Irving, Ill.,, writes that he had a severe kidney trouble for many years, with severe pains in his back and also that his bladder was effected. He tried many so called kid ney cures but without any good result. About year ago he began the use of Electric Bitters and found relief at once. Electric Bitters is especially adapted to cure of all kidney and liver troubles and often gives almost instant relief. One trial will prove our state- ment. Price only 50c at J. E.

INVESTIGATION OF THE
YELLOW FEVER PROBLEM.
Experts should he Appointed to
Make n study of the Causes of
the Disease.

In my last annual message l recon-
needed that the congress authorize the ap-
pointment of committee for the purpose OF
.4.HhIAg systematic Investigations with ref
e:ence 10 the cause and prevention OF yell
low fever. This matter has acquired an
increased Importance as a result of the MILL
tary occupation OF the island OF Cuba and
the commercial intercourse between tais
island and the United States. VIZ We
have every reason TO expect, The 81 3ry
problems connected with our relations with
the island OF Cuba and the acquisition OF
Porto Rico are no less important tnan
those relating II finance, commerce and ad-
mInistration IT is my earnest desire that
these problems may he considered hy COM
peient experts aud that everything may be
done which the most recent advances IN
sanitary science can afford for the pro-
lection Of the health of our soldiers in those
islands and of our citizens who are ex-
posed TO the dangers Of infection from the
importation Of yellow fever. | therefore
renew my recommendation that the author

the purpose indicated.

The experiences Of the last year bring
forcihly home TO us sense OF the burdens

mon with most civilized nations, 10 reduce
to the lowest possible point the damage

all nations are disturbed more or less hx
the state of uneasness ard apprehension
into which an outbreak OF hostilites throws

our object, therefore to minimize. SO far rs
practicable, this inevitable loss and dis
turbance. This purpose can probably be
best accomplished by an International
agreement 70 regard ali private property

MEXICO ANNULS AN
EXTRADITION TREATY,
Resents the Refusal of this Country
to Surrender Jesus Guerrero,
ths. olutieuist

The Interpretation Of certain provisions
OF the eXtradti0u convention OF December
II. 1861. has been al various tirneS the oC-
casi0n Of controversy with the government
Of Mexico.
An acute difference arose in the case of
the Mexican demand for the delivery Of
Jesus Guerrero. who having led a maraud-
Ing expedition near the border With the
proclaimed purpose OF initiating insurrec-
1lon against President Daz escaped into
the United States, EXtraditi0n was refused
on the ground that the alleged offense was
political in its character and therefore came
within the treaty proTiso Of non-surrender
The Mexican contention was that the ex-
ception only related 10 purely political Of
feuseS. and that as tiuerreraS acts were
admixed with the common crime of muir
der. arson. kidHaping and robbery the
option OF non-delivery became Void a posi-
tion which this government was unable
10 admit. in View Of the recognized inter
national doctrine and practice In the mat
ter. The Mexican government in view Of
this. gave notice on January q lS9s Of
the termination OF the convention 10 take
effect twelve months from that date. at
the same time inviting the conclusion Of a
convention toward which negotiations are
on foot.
In this relation I may refer 10 the neceg.
sity OF some amendment Of our existing

lation o. such treaties that neither PARTY
shall be bound 20 give up its own citizens.
