N. De sLowI1z ON pRsYfus.
The Actual Forser He Believes is Other Than
Col. Henry.

London, Sept. 3-M. De BlOwitz, the
Par.S correspondent of the Times, tele-
graphs that he has obtained the views Of
a distinguished German on the Dreyfus
situation. This individual admitted that
Germany, by speaking out could. per-
maps. clear up the Dreyfus affair; but. he
added, 1.-THE interests of the nation were
superior to those of any man. and IL Ger
many were listened to, Gen. De Boisdeffre
could not remain an hour at the head of
the staff. whereas Germans ought to wish
to have him stay there as long as pos
sible."
N. De Blowitz says: "Gen. De Bots
deffre'S shortcomings are just as fully
even an idea of sending him as French
ambassador to st. Petersburg, u post lie
desired, but the incident of the Zola trial
made his retention as chief of staff i'm
perative. Now, however. the Germans no
longer have motive to keep silence

correspondent says t.e work was so clev-
erly done as TO deceive Col. Schwartz
koppen himself. who. even when he be-
came aware of it, was unable to denounce
1t. owing to the Introduction of certain
names.
M. De Blowi'tz arrives at This conclu-
sion: 1T is absolutely impossible that
Lieut.. Cox Henry should have attained
the necessary professional dexterity. The
actual forger. therefore. must be sought
elsewhere, though 1t is likely enough that
Henry cOncocted the phruses. Discovery
would not be difficult and would elicit the
whole truth"

SEEKING SHELTER.
French General Staff Officers
Writing Their designations.
While the Feeling Toward Dreyfus
Grows More Favorable.
The Press Generally Calls Tor a Revision Of
the Case.

Paris, Sept. ali p. M.-The report.
put in circulation by a news agency,
that revision of the Dreyfus case
had been decided upon, appears to be
premature. 1t is now pointed out that
revision must be sanctioned by a
cabinet council, under the Presidency
of NJ Faure. No such council has been
held as yet. but NJ. Cavaignac. the
minister for war, has conferred at
great length today with NJ. Sarrien.
the minister of justice and NJ. Brisson.
president of the council, and minister
Of the interior. The presumption Is
that these conferences had to do with
the proposal of revisions; but the re-
suits have not been made public.
The movement in favor of revision
of the Dreyfus case is growing strong
er in the newspapers which until now
have been hostile to the prisoner on
Devils island. The Matin today says:
THE absence of NJ. Bourgeois Othe
minister OF education) prevented the
ministers from coming to decision.
yesterday, and another meeting of the
, council will be held. today"
Gen. Pellieux has rendered his resig-
nation, but it was withdrawn on the
insistence Of Gen. Zurlinden.
1t was announced, this afternoon. by
Patrie that several officers of the gen
eral staff had decided to resign shortly
and divulge all they know of the entire
Dreyfus affair. One officer declares
that war will inevitably follow as
result of the revelation which will be
made regarding. the Vaccinations OF
another government.

Senator Hanna Talks Concerning Reported
Suffering in Army Camps.

Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 2.-Senator NJ
A. Hanna has returned to Cleveland af-
ter months outing in the Yellow
stone park and the Northwest. In the
course of an interview concerning the
reported sufferings in army camps, Mr.
Hanna said:
II do not care to place the blame for
the conditions upon anyone. / will
say, however, that the governors Of
the different states appointed the vol
unteer officers and we find that the
illness among the troops comes from
the volunteer ranks. The places for
location of the camps were selected
because of their availability and their
climatic conditions.
Regular troops have been canaped
alongside the volunteers and no sick
ness among them. l do not wonder
that the death rate has been high in
some instances. Several times / visited
Camp Alger and looked fully over the
place. AT the edge Of the camp I
found banana stands and places where
beer and pop and such stuff were sold
to the troops. This kind of stuff never
helps the volunteers.
Look at the TASK winch mas Deen
performed by the administration. AT
the outbreak of the war there was pro-
visions for but $4,000 men. l am ac-
quainted personally with the heads of
the war department and am positive
that they worked from 16 to Is hours
each day to equip and arm this great
army of between 275,000 and 800, 900
men. The whole affair seems marve-
lous to me and could not have been ac-
complished by any other nation in the
world. The war department had a
most stupendous task before it and it
was equal to the emergency"

Fill bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours a sediment o1 settling indicates an un- healthy condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen 1t is evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate, or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order.
 WHAT TO DO.
 There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great k idney remedy, fulfils every wish relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passages. It corrects inabil- ity to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for it's wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best.

SHADOWING A FOOTBALLER.
The Scheme of a Team Go Down . Suo-
 cessful Rival.


 Several years ago a young athlete named D. was conspicuous as foot ball player. He was swift runner, a reliable drop kicker and an excellent all round player. He had proved such tower of strength on his college eleven that rival teams feared him, and when rum to the effect that he had received money for his services were circulated steps were eagerly taken by the foot ball authorities of an opposing college to investigate his amateur status. If he had received money, as alleged, he was no longer an amateur and could be de- barred from 8 place on the team.
 Accordingly an emissary was dis patched, with the usual oppressive col lege secrecy, to the village of S- where the suspected player resided when at home. The father of D. was a yell to do farmer, and the spy, passing as a book agent, experienced little diff culty in getting him to talk about his son.
 "Fcmous?'' he said, with no great show of enthusiasm. "Waa1. l s'pose the boy is famous, but there isn't much in this football
 stBut fellow as famous as he is must get good salary" |" the spy suggested, with craftily assumed air of innocence.
 Nope" said the farmer. Football players don't get salary"
 "That's odd," continued the spy. "I heard he was kicking for cash.''
 "Waal, that's right He is," the fa- ther slowly admitted.
 The spy was secretly overjoyed. He chuckled inwardly and fairly hugged himself with delight. In fancy the rival team was already deprived of her strong est player.
 "So he's kicking for cash at college. is he?'' he echoed.
 "Yes," the farmer said wearily, "yes, he's kickin for more cash most every letter I get.''
 And then the disgusted spy kicked himself, metaphorically speaking, all the way back to college.-Harper' Ba- gar
