FANNY DAvENPoRTs ESTATE.
Forecast of Her Alleged Will Printed
 By a Boston Newspaper.

Boston, Mass, Oct 24.-The Herald prints what purpcrts to be data from the will of the late Fanny Davenport, not yet submitted fer probate. It is said the will was made in 1892. To each Of her three sisters, Blanche, May and Florence, Miss Davenport leaves fS,000;, to each Of her brothers, Edgar and Harry, s2,000; to seven nieces and nephews, $3,000 each. Her interest in the Davenport family home in Can ton, Pa, is left to Blanche and Flor ence To her sister May she leaves bends of the Omaha Water company, value as yet unknown. Her home ln South Duxbury, Mass, her Chicago real estate, consisting of several very valuable lots, all her plays and manu- scripts, and the balance of her estate, with the exception of some jewelry and a valuable library, which is di- vided among relatives are left absc- lutely to her husband, Melbourne Mac Dowell.
 It is understood that Miss Daven- ports jewellery, estimated to be worth from $50, ,000 tc s75,000, and her library of 10000 volum6s are not mentioned in the will, but in a letter she left word to whom she wished each article to go

 This examination is open to all citi- zens of the United States who may de- comply with the requirements, with out regard to race or to political CT religious affiliations; but attention is invited to the fact that it is the prac- tice of the postoffice department in making appointments to the grads of clerk and carrier to give preference to those eligibles who are legal residents of the city and vicinity where the examination is held. Applicants shall be examined, graded, and certi- fled, with entire impartiality, and wholly without regard to any consid eration save their ability as shown by the grade they attain in the examina- tion.

cnly s5urce from which she could ncpa to raise the necessary money. II the Amstiean commission CTS insist upon taking the islands they should be will ling toi take the financial obligations as well, as from the Cuban revenues has come the interest paid on the debt.
 Another argument advanced is that mcney indemnity is out of reason, because of Spain's desperate financial condition, and that, as the United States acquires much territory, no matter what the future of the Philip- pines, or even Cuba is, it would be practically demanding a money indem- nifty to insist that she should assume the debt.
 According to what I have heard, I do not believe the American commission CTS have held out any hope to their Spanish conferees that the United States will assume or even guarantee all or portion of these obligations. This attitude is reflected in the pessi- mistic utterances of the Spanish press. which intimate that the representa- tives of the Washington government are not willing to meet the proposals emanating from Madrid in a concilia- tcry spirit, but rather insist upon and carry cn negotiations in strict accord ance with the instructions they reeeiy- ed from President Mckinley.
 Relief from crushing financial obli- gations rather than retention of terri tory seems to be the first purpose Of the Madrid government, and it is on this line, am informed, that the Span ish commissioners will ,endeavor 10 conduct negotiations with their Ameri- can colleagues.
 A Madrid special tc, the same paper, under date Of Thursday, says:
 At the council of ministers yester- day it WAS decided to send definite in- structicns to Montero Rios as regards the debated question of the Cuban debt. If the American commissioners dc. not pay attention to the justice of our cause and if they compel us to ac- cept payment by the Spanish treasury of the Cuban debt, Spain will protest to all the nations of the world against the way in which the Americans are using their strength and the manner in which they comply with laws of honcr."
 But" asked, Twill not Spain ulti- mately give way?"
 Without a squadron and without re- sources, how are we to continue the fight? What are we to do?''

A POPULAR MISTAKE.
Regarding Remedies for Dyspepsia and
Indigestion.


The national disease OF Americans Is in
digestion or in its chronic form. dyspep-
sia. and for the very reason that Il Is 50
common many people neglect taking pro-
per treatment Tor what they consider
trifling stomach trouble. when as @ matter
Of fact. indigestion lays the foundation
for many incurahle diseases. No person
with a vigorous healthy stomach will fall
victim TO consumption. Many kidney
diseases and heart troubles date their be-
ginning from poor digestion: thin. ner-
Gus people are really so because their
stomachs are out OF gear. weary. Ian
guild faded out women owe their con-
dition to imperfect digestion
When nearly every person you meet is
AFFLICTED with weak digestion IL Is not sur
prising that nearly every secret patent
medicine on the market claims tn be- a
cure FOR dyspepsia as we'll as a score 81
other troubles. when in fact. as DR.. Wcr-
thier says, there is but one genuine dys.
pepsla cure which Is perfectly safe and
reliable, and moreover, this remedy is
not patent medicine. but II Is a scientific
combination OF pure pepsin free from
animal natter, vegetable essences fruit
salts and bismuth. II Is sold by drug
gists under name Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. No extravagant claims are
made for them. but for Indigestion or any
stomach trouble. stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's are far ahead Of any remedy yet dis
covered They act on the food eaten. no
dieting Is necessary. simply eat all the
wholesome food you want and these tab
lets will digest 1t. A cure results. because
all the stomach needs is rest. which Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets will give by do
ing the work Of digestion
