BY 6:3O y. m. n thin trail of smoke
in the distance was all that could be
seen of the departing American ships.
The Emilyn was the first steamer to
move out of the harbor, then came the

CoNGRESSME NOT SATISFIED,
They DO Not Think That Spain's Armistice
Amounts to Anything.

Washington. April n.-While the
House. ns n body, has no faith in the
proposed armistice as Offering any f,l-
ture hope for Cuba's freedom, quite n
number of congressman still do not
want radical action and it is said most
of the senators will endeavor to follow
the Presidents latest lead.
Some of the senators met last night
at Senator Alisons house and decided
TO report Il resolution rs follows:
THAT the President be. and is hereby
empowered to take such action us will
bring 10 an immediate termination the
hostilities in Cuba and to establish a
stable government by and for The pco-
pie of that island. and he is authorized
and directed 10 employ the land and
naval forces of the United States to
bring about that result"

Johnson of Indiana (who has been
very conservative)-We shall take
Cuba and Porto Rico. But there will
be complicated money questions. If
Lee and Sigsbee have conclusive evil
dence that the Maine was blown up by
the Spanish. no American should hest
tate about declaring war at once.
Jones. Silver Republican. of Wash
ington.-The proposal for an armistice
sounds like childs play. l do not see
how the Republicans can have the
nerve TO propose any more delayss.

the Spaniards ask us TO draw the am
munition from our guns?
Cannon, Illinois, do not think
Span's proposal warrants any further
delay.
Bailey of TeXas.-Thc proposal for
an armisticc' is absurd We ought to
adopt decisive course without further
delay.
Berry of Kcntucky.-I am in favor of

William Olmsted, who died recent
ly at Cassopolis Mich, left 100000 to
Barnum's circus. 1t seems that he was
an eccentric old man and did not live
in harmony with his relatives. and he
decided to get even with them by leav-
ing all his possessions. with exception
OF small farm to his wife, to the ia
nous circus. There is no way to ac-
count for the strange bequest except
the possibility that Mr.. Olmsted may
have received at one time free tickets
for the show. The heirs will contest
the will.

At the annual banquet of New York's
Sons of the American Revolution the
other night. Ferd w. Peck OF Chicago
presented the plan which has already
received the sanction of the president
and the senate for raising a fund Of
$250,000 by contribution from the
school children of the United States
to erect an appropriate monument In
Paris to the Marquis de Lafayette.
President Mckinley has consented to
serve as chairman of a national COM
mittee to be composed of the COVER

probably adopt a resolution authorlz-

Lafayettes birthday, in September
next, in every schoolhouse in the Unit

Spring is the Time
When Impurities in the Blood
Should Be Expelled
Americas Greatest Medicine 10 the
Best Spring Medicine.

In winter months the perspiration, 30
profuse in summer, almost ceases. This
throws back into the system the impure
ties that should have been expelled
through the pores OF the skin. This and
OF her causes makes the blood impure in
spring. Boils, pimples, humors and
eruptions then appear or some more
serious disease may take its start. HOODS
Sarsaparilla is the remedy for impure
blood in all its forms, as proved by its
marvellous cures OF blood diseases. 1t is
therefore the medicine for you to take
in the spring. 1t expells all humors, and
puts the whole system in good condition
for warmer weather.
