WAR BALLOONS.
Two Shipped to Governors Is
1and-One For Schley's
Squadron.

New York. May 30.-There were ship
ped to Governors Island from the pier
from the French line Of steamers two
big balloons and equipments which the
government has purchased for use In
army operations. They were obtained
from the French manufacturer of bal
looms, and proprietor of the captive
balloon in Paris. Maurice Maulet. n.
Maulet is also in this country with
Antonio Variclea, both of them well
known aeronauts, and it is likely their
services will be secured in connection
with the use of balloons in military op-
erations in Cuba and Porto Rico, and
possibly in the Philippines. The plan
has been proposed of sending one of
the balloons now at Tampa on a suit
able vessel of high speed to join Com
modore Schley's squadron, and to use
it in seeing just how the Spanish fleet
is hidden away in Santiago harbor. The
balloons will be shipped to such points
as the officers of the signal service de-
termine.

DIDN'T CATCH HER
The Bancroft Was Too Slow and Gave
Up the Chase.

Key West, May 3O.-The unknown
steamer supposed to be a Spanish aux
iliary cruiser sighted by the Wilmington
and Bancroft, about fifteen miles off
Key West early on Thursday morning
was not captured. The Bancroft gave
up the chase.
The wilmington first sighted the
stranger, it now appears, and was
about to steam after her, when the
Bancroft came along and asked her if
she had seen anything of a four masted
steamer with only two smoke-stacks.
The Wilmington told her of the I'M
known vessel she had just observed
which had three masts and one smoke
stack, And the Bancroft started in pur-
suit. The stranger put all steam when
she saw she was being chased and
made off at 16 knot clip. She had too
big a lead on the Bancroft and the lat
ter, after chasing her for an hour and
half gave it up.
Just before the Bancroft abandoned
the pursuit, however, the unknown
hoisted her co1ors; but night was falling
and the gunboat was unable to make
them out. The officers of the Bancroft
believe the ship they chased was a
British vessel, and that it was the Brit
ish flag that was displayed, but they
cannot account for her running away.
During the chase the Bancroft held
up a number of ships which were re-
leased after esta blishing their identity.

FIGURING ON THE FUTURE.
Government Will Issue Statistics
Pertaining to Philippines.

Washington, May 30.-The commerce
of the countries adjacent to the Philip
pine islands is the subject of a series of
tables which will appear in the next
monthly publication of the bureau of
statistics.
The statement consists of tables
showing the population and commerce
of the countries adjacent to the Philip
pines, and the share that the United
States and other nations had in the
commerce for a series of years and is
accompanied by a map showing the
steamship routes and distances from
our various ports of the adjacent coun-
tries. The fact that the countries now
in easy reach of the Philippines contain
a population of $50 600, coo, that their
purchases from other parts of the world
amount to over a billion dollars every
year and their exports to a like sum,
and that the large portion of these
purchases comprise the classes of goods
produced in the United States add
greatly to the interest in this subject
The tables will show the population
and area of these countries, their trade
with each of the leading nations of the
world and the per centage which ma
uons obtain of their exports and i'm
ports, the articles which have been ex-
ported to each by the United States
during the past five years and the to-
tai commerce of the United States,
with each of the principal countries of
that section by years since 1920.

Kidney Deases That Once We're the
Terror of Physicians Robbed Of
Their Horror When to Act

Nature seldom strikes a severe blow
at mankind without first giving warn
ing. 1t Is neglect of the warning that
leads to disaster. The first warming
usually, that is given of impending dan

small of the back just above the kid
neys- When the kidneys are not doing
thelr work properly there is distress all
over the body; but, generally, a back
ache is one of the first and most certain
symptoms of kidney disorder
Wise people give a pain of this char
acter immediate attention. Since the
discovery by John Morrow, the cele-
brated American chemist, of Morrow's
kidneoids-those small, yellow tablets
that contain natures remedy for kid
ney disorders-this remedy has become
household article, and it is relied
upon Just as often to avert terrible kid
ney complaints, when they are threat
ened, as to cure cases of long standing
When any Of the symptoms of kidney
irregularities appear, such as backache

COLUMBIA INJURY SLIGHT.
Probability That She Will Soon Be
All Right Again.

Washington, May 3O.-Secretary Long
today received a dispatch from Admiral
Bunce, commander of the New York navy
yard, stating that the cruiser Columbia
had been in collision at sea and one of her
compartments had a lot of water in it.
The admiral said he intended to dock her
might determine the extent of the repairs
necessary.
While the admiraTs dispatch stated
nothing to the time that would be nee
essary to make the repairs, it is believed
at the department that the nature of the
collision makes it probable that the re-
