Judgment Rendered
Ex-Judge Comstock Of Detroit
Gives to the People His Opinion
Satisfied Only with Hoods.

The testimonials in favor of Hoods
Sarsaparila come from people in all
ranks of life. Its great power TO en-
rich and purify the blood is recognized
by physicians, clergymen, teachers,
lawyers and judges, who, owing TO
sedentary habits and severe nervous
strain, often need its vitalizing and
nerve-strengthoning influence. Ex-
Judge Comstock of Detroit says:
81 am busy man and have little time
for recreation, and find my system some
times needs toning up. At such times i
take two or three bottles of Hoods Sarsa-
parilla, and then find am all right. /
have sometimes been persuaded to try
other and cheaper kinds, but have never
been satisfied with anything but Hoods
Sarsaparilla." EX-JUDGEA.G G. CousTocK,

Governor woIcott Talks Further.

Boston, April 2I-In an interview re-
Earding his statement of Monday, Gov
ernor Wolcott said: our state militia
should not be materially depleted by
the wholesale enlistment of officers or
men. In individual cases no objec ion
will be raised if material depletion does
not result. The defence of the coast of
Massachusetts is an important and hon
orable duty, as l have suggested. 1t
is my duty to look to that defence. If
a member of the militia steps out and
says he is going to the front l do not
want the remaining members to be
branded as towards. The integrity of
our military organizations must be pre-
served. and we intend that it shall be.
1t must be thoroughly understood that
we have many exposed points and d
coast to defend. The individual that
seeks his discharge to go to Chicka-
mauga and thence to Cuba win not meet
serious objection at the hands of the
board. His place will be flied [
think that the spirit of the statement
issued by me is thoroughly understood
by the people Of Massachusetts. and I
think it is entirely in accord with their
desire"

London, April 27.-The Vienna CORE
spondent of The Standard says: 1T is
probably due to a complete understand
ing reached between Count Goluchow-
ski, the Austro-Hurg arian reign
minister and Prince Hohenlohe. the
German chancellor, that all the inspired
organs of the Vienna foreign office are
propagating the idea that, afteC the first
rather serious encounter between Spain
and the United States, the intervention
of the powers viii bring the war to a
close. The Intervention would consist Of
recommendation that Spain should
give up Cuba, after having saved her
honor. 1t is in keeping with this idea
that the foreign office organs express
extreme Impotence at the sIowness of
developments, while admitting that
Austria and Germany are united in poll

The Attitude of Germany.

Washington April 21.-First among all
neutrals to take cognizance of the situa-
ton and of the existence Of q state of war
are the British colonies. 1t may not be
of particular significance, yet it goes in
testant, Mr.. Wise, who is Republican,
by party vote.
n measure to support the contention of
this government that war actually eX
listed before the declaration by congress-
for the British colonies in cases have
acted and made their proclamations of
neutrality in advance of action by con-
gress. Thus it happens that the British
government of the strait settlement at
Singapore issued it's proclamation Mon
day afternoon.
The state department officials have
taken note of the semi-Official statement
from Germany to the effect that that ma
tiOn will not 1t present issue a neutrality
proclamation. They are not very much
concerned, however, believing that any
advantage to be gained by Germany in
refraining from adopting the usual
course in this respect will be rather
technical than practical Certainly all
remain until you come and drive us out,
in fulfilment of your arrogant boast"
1t is generally believed that in con-
sonance with this policy the Spanish
fleet, unless compelled to fight, will avoid
engagements, and the fastest ships will
be employed to destroy the commerce
of the United States.
