Dewey and the Philippines.

Admiral Dewey's brief dispatches to
the navy department continue couched
In the same modest but comprehensive
language that marked his first message
announcing his remarkable victory over
the Spanish fleet. The n received
Sunday gave briefly enough the situa-'
ton on the thirteenth, q date later than
that on which some highly sensational
dispatches appeared In the yellow news
papers, and confirm in 10 way. not even
\ by intimation, those reports which rep
resented q state Of anarchy existing in
the Philippines and that Dewey was
powerless to stop the slaugllters OF
women and children.
The admiral simply u that he
IS maintaining a strict blockade; that
The Spanish governor may be obliged to
surrender soon, and that he can take
Manila at any time. The only reference
TO the insurgents Is that he believes they
are hemming in Manila. There Is no
reference to any massncres having &C.

have referred in some way to It. as an

In the meantime these reinforcements
are being sent him according to his pre-
Aivious request Undoubtedly he will
need them to maintain order pending
the settlement of whatever peace meas
ure may grow out Of the result of the
war, notwithstanding up to Friday no
state OF affairs, such as has been de-
scrIbed by sensational newspaper dis
patches, existed. In sending 10000 men
TO the Philippines the government is
pursuing It's wise policy Of providing for
possible emergencies It is unfortunate,
however. that the distance IS so great
and that 90 much time must be con-.

Who cares what his political sentiments

Mice Which Hunt Birds.

Akyoung woman living In Harlem was
the fowner of a canary bird last week
thai could do anything canary birds can
do, This birds name was Speck, and
the way he could sing was a marvel to
listeners. 1t was not the loud, a r
breaking sound Of ordinary canary
birds, but a sweet, tuneful murmur"
that this bird made. On Thursday
morning, just as the sun began to crawl
down the door Of her room, she heard
The bird In the adjoining room end its
song In a sort of gasping cry. When
she got time she saw a mouse on the
bottom Of the cage with the birds
throat In its long teeth. The bird was
dlttering, but soon died, and the mouse
fed in alarm. 1t Is not often that Gagged
birds are attacked with mice, but such
things have happened. A rat was one
time seen to still hunt sparrows on q
New York pier.

"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I cannot be-
gin to tell you how 1 suffered before
taking your remedies. 1 was SO weak
that couldhardly walk across the floor
without falling. I had womb trouble
and such a bearing-down feeling also
suffered with my back and limbs, pain
in womb, Inflammation of the bladder,
piles and indigestion. Before l had
taken one bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound 1 felt a great deal
better, and after taking two and one
half bottles and half a box of your
Liver Pills l was cured. If more would
take your medicine they would not
have to suffer so much"
Mrs. JOSEPH PETERSON, 513 East St.,
Warren, Pa. writes: y
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I have suf-
fered with womb trouble over fifteen
years. l had Inflammation, enlarge
nent and displacement of the womb.

heart was in my throat at times chok-

l could not lie down, for then my heart

The Late Ex-Mayor Sutro Made Nam,
Gifts to the Pacific Metropolis.
San Francisco lost one of her best
known and most philanthropic citizens
In the death of ex-Mayor Adolph Sutro.
He was q man of many peculiar char
acteristics, but withal a most generous
giver, and his name will long be held in
remembrance by the people of San
Francisco for the many splendid gifts
he made to the city.
Adolph Sutro was born sixty-eight
years ago In Prussia of Jewish parents.
He came to the United States In 1850,
when the gold fever vas at It's height,
and was lured with countless others to
the shores of the Pacific. 1t was not
long after that the great Comstoek lode
began to turn out its millions and at
tracted the attention of the world. The
mines soon got down SO deep that there
appeared to be no way to drain them,
and the heat was SO intense from lack
of ventilation that the miners could not
work. Sutro, who had studied engi-
neering, conceived the scheme of con-
structing an enormous tunnel under the
lode which should connect the shafts
and relieve them. He got capitalists to
back him up, and in october, 1878, a
tunnel twelve feet wide, ten feet high,
and with its branches over five miles
long had been completed. It proved a
success. The mining companies, how
ever, refused to share revenues with
the tunnel company. Sutro therefore
closed the tunnel and brought every
body to terms, as the lode could not be
worked without using it.
When the tunnel was In full opera
ton Sutro unloaded it at q handsome
profit, wandered about Europe for a
time, picked up a wondrous library and

known that Mr.. Baldwin was In need
of money, and presently he began to
sell pieces here and there of his grand
estates In California. Lucky" was not
living up to his name. To-day, the
owner of land enough for q small prin-
cipality, he finds trouble in laying his
hands on a 500 bill. MI. Baldwin has
been living in San Francisco pretty reg
ulariy for the last. three years. He is
now 70 years old and is showing his
age. He is by no means the picturesque
man he was when his Volante was
king Of the turf. But Lucky" Is a
pretty good man yet, ven If he Is los
ing his millions. Among all the shrewd,
wise men who became bonanza kings
and millionaires In the brisk days of
California there was none shrewder
or wiser than Baldwin. He has played
many parts In his time and played all
well. He has been a canal boatman,
grocery man, ~hotelkeeper, brickmaker,
llveryman, theatrical manager, turf
man, mining operator, farmer, and al
ways a Spectator. He has been able
TO manage and direct five or six big
businesses, from q magnificent stable
of race horses to a gold mine, hotel,
ranch, winery, vineyards and a brick
yard. He may not leave as many mill
ions behind him as he might nee have
left, but there is hardly any danger of
his going to the poorhouse.
