tons for terms will be opened between
parties clothed with the responsibility OF
bringing about a settlement. Neither
does the Spanish proposition contain any
reference to "armisticc." At the same
time il is framed on the idea that if peace
negotiations are entered upon there will
be n suspension Of hostilities pending an
agreement upon the exact terms of peace.
As to the manner of conducting the
peace negotiations. one plan is to have
Spain name plenipotentiarics who will
come directly to Washington and conduct
negotiations Another is to have Spain
name NJ. Cambon as the Spanish plenipo-
Tertiary at Washington, comforting on
him authority to treat directly with the
President and carry the negotiations for
ward to a conclusion. 1t is probable that
this plan would he the more acceptable
to the United States.
1t is not improbable that Spain within
the next two or three days will voun-
tarily suggest what terms of peace she
would regard as consistent.

The diplomats showed their interest.
early today, by calling at the state de-
partment and at the French embassy to
learn With more eXacfnoss the details Of
SPANS proposal. This developed several
features Of the proposition which have
not been entirely clear before.
In the first place, no foreign govern

peace. The formal proposition submitted,

fact that Spain was about 10 sue for
peace.
The negotiations wee finally entrusted
to the French ambassador at Washington.
As to the exact proposition made by
Spain there has been some misapprehcn-
sion. owing to the publication of an al
Legged text of the proposition and other
reports asserting that Spain asked Presi-
dent Mckinley to state terms of peace.
As matter Of fact, there is no such re-
quest or suggestion in the Spanish prop
ostion.
The distinct inquiry made by Spain is
as to wht Their the United States viii open
negotiations toward the settlement of the

The roads here are simply paths

There are no bridges ana in wet

Princeton, y. j., March 15.-FormeI
President Cleveland was interviewed to-
day by an Associated Press reporter
upon the subject of the Maine affair ana
the existing relations between this couh'
try and Spain. Mr.. Cleveland at trst
declined to express any opinion upon the
matter.
Il should only be misunderstood, he
said. Il have been resting here quietly
since leaving Washington and L do not
wish to say or do anything which may
be construed in any way as comment up
on public affairs"
Finally AIS the reporter turned to leave,
Mr.. Cleveland volunteered this state
ment:
THAT have no wish to be interview
ed you may state for me, that III com
mon with Others | think any patriotic
citizen ought to Loyalty support the gov
eminent during a period of trial like
the present, no matter what eXigencles
may arise.
II will also say that l hope the pres
ent difficulties will be settled without
blood-shed. 1t is possible that an hon
orable way out will be found eventually
and that there will be no war;"
Mr. Cleveland said he preferred to re-
serve all comment upon the possible and
probable outcome of the Maine affair un-
til after the official publication OF the

HOW TO REMAIN YOUNG.
Feed the Hard-Working Organs Of Your Body
With lust What They Require.

Here are some important truths ex-
pressed by a well-known professor Of
New York Medical College.
IAN nature ever needs, or ever asks
for, is "a little help. She becomes over
wOrked-is it any wonder she needs
help"
1.-The heart beats night and day ana
never stops. The lungs are always work
ing away like a pair of bellows. The
stomach rs constantly occupied; so are
the kidneys and the liver. You cannot
give them vacation, but you can help
them immensely. Those great organs
the kidneys and liver-are willing to
work. but they need food and you can
give it to- them"
You cam easily feed these organs.
and You will be surprised how much bet
ter you will feel if you do so. There is
n discovery which is an actual food for
the kidneys. 1t is known to scientists
and the world as Warmers Safe Cure.
BY all means try it. A little of this re-
markable medicine taken three times a
day will produce a most happy effect.
Instead of being tired, tagged out, dcs-
pendent and with little ambition, yOu
will grow bright, hopeful and happy.
Women. especially, need a good friend
of this kind, and | KNOW of scores of Ia
dies who would not think of being
without this grand remedy to help them
when they specially need it"
