The Presidents Message is probably the
most Illogical document that has ever
been presented to Congress.
Ii recommends intervention" without
recognition of the Cuban Republic. What
does this mean?
There are three conceivable way of
intervening. We can intervene in favor
OF Spain, in favor of Cuba or against
both Spain and Cuba
It is hardly conceivable that Mr.. Nc
Kinley wants US TO interfere in behalf
of Spain.
He specifically says he does not favor
Intervention in behalf of Cuba
Then he must mean hat we are to
make war on both for the purpose of
forcing both to make peace with each
other.
But, peace on what basis? On that
of Cuban independence or Spanish SUI
premacy? Who is to decide? Somebody
must, and who butswe II we assume to
dictate to both?
And if we are to dictate in the long
run, why is it not better to take sides
with one or the other party right now,
and end the war at once?

A Good Entertainment at the Ron
Tnn Theatre.

The fine weather. and that dread of all
theatrical managers, the bicycle, evidently
hold no terrors for the management of the
Bon-Tcn, for every available inch of room
was occupied last night, and not without
good reason. for the entertainment was
certainly worthy of the large house.
The curtain went up on a very laugh
able skit entitled Summer Nights" in
which the entire eompan took part and
helped to DO damage TO the hooks. and
eyes and buttons on the clothing OF the
audience. This was followed by a very
fine olio, in which McAvoy and May cas-
fly bore off the honors. For fully twenty
minutes these clever artists never gave
the audience a chance to rest from laugh
tar. Gertrude Rutlidge. a tall and shapely
young has a fine, powerful voice;
She made a decided hit. The Mitchell
sisters. Gilbert and Goldie. the three Dun
bar sisters and the acrohatie judges, all
contributed their share to the evenings
entertainment. TIL show closed with IA
Paris Girl in Saratoga" in which Dan
McAvoy and that inimitable comedian,
Dick Barnard, kept everybody, ever the
people ON the stage. roaring almost all
the time. Any number on the programme
will pay for a visit to the Bon-Ton this

Pnuper's Grave.
The remains of George Morgan, a vet
eran of the Civil War. after narrowly
missing interment in the potter's field.
found a resting place yesterday in sol
dier's grave in Arlington Cemetery.
through the efforts of local members of
the G. a. r.
Morgan was a member of Company z,
of the Ninety-seventh New York Regi-
ment, during the Civil War. through
which he served. Last Sunday he died
at his boarding place in this city. l24
First Street northwest. without medical
attention. and his remains were sent TO
the morgue.
Coroner Carr. after an investigation and
examination of the body, ascertained that
death resulted from natural causes, and
gave a certificate. The deceased had no
friends here, and DR.. Carr was afraid
that the old soldier would find his last
resting place in a pauper's grave.
He spoke of the matter in making his
report TO the health office, and former
Sergt. John L. Daley. assistant paymas-
ter of the District, heard him and be
came interested in the case. He called
the attention of Vice Commander Chase,
of the Department of the Potomac, g. A
r. to the matter. and the necessary steps
were taken TO have the old soldier prop
erly buried.

A QUEER CRAFT.
The Armed Steamer Gov. Russell
Has Trying Experiences.

Norfolk, Va, Sept. 13.-TheUnited States
armed steamer Governor Russell arrived
at the navy yard today Aboard her are
the following officers: Lieut.. c. II. Grant.
l. S. N, commanding: Lieut.. Thomas
Dexter; Ensign Hammond, and Passed
Assistant Engineer Albert Lawrence. Her
crew consists of fifty-two members of the
Massachusetts naval brigade.
This vessel is surely as queer a craft
as ever went TO sea. She is a regular
double-ender ferry boat, painted war gray
with battery of one 5-inch, two 3-inch.
and four Hotchkiss 3-pound guns. She
sailed for Boston on July l6. touched at
New York, and has been cruising as far
South as Port Royal
She appears TO have been as much at
home at sea as a hen would be and in
rounding Hatteras the lives of the crew
are said to have been In great danger
She put in here for repairs and 1t is
thought will be here for some time
Those aboard have not, however given
up the hope of reaching Boston alive by
the outside route. They, in fact. appear
to have faith in the seaworthy qualities
of The Governor Russell.

Recognizes Her Services.

ton Army's Offer Accepted.

New York, Sept. 13.-At today's meeting
of the council the following resolution
was unanimously adopted:
Whereas Miss Helen Gould has exhib-
tied to the city and the nation at large
a conspicuous example in generous pa
triotism by contributing 100000 to the
Treasury of the United States at a time
when the resources of the country were
taxed to meet the expenses of the late
war with Spain; and
Whereas Miss Gould has displayed
much practical and womanly interest in
the welfare of our sick and wounded sol
diers and sailors by personal administra-
ton and generous helpfulness: Therefore
be ii
Resolved, That the municipal assembly
of the city of New York now recognizes
her distinguished service to the Govern
ment and people of the United States and
directs the city clerk to convey to her
the assurance of its gratitude and admi-
ration.
Shortly after making her gift of $780,
900 to the Government Miss Gould be-
came an active member of the Woman's
National War Relief Association and has
since been made assistant director gem
eral.
One of her first acts after Joining was
to visit the hospital ships Relief and
Olivette, and TO offer to the surgeons
in charge anything they might be in need
of in the equipment of the vessels. In
some cases her favors have been accept
ed and supplies put on board vessels.
Miss Gould also organized a party to
visit the hospitals in the harbor and as
result dietary kitchens were established
at several of them.
Miss Gould became especially interested
in the work at Montauk Point and has
made several visits there. After each
visit she has personally supervised the
purchase OF supplies for the camp. That
she promptly realized the great demand
for relief work there was shown by her
| gift of SIS, 900 10 the association, which
was announced shortly after her second
visit With this money the work has been

INTENSE SUFFERING
From Dyspepsia and Stomach
Trouble.
Instantly Relieved and Permanent
Iy Cured by Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
A New Discovery, But Not a Patent
Medicine.

DR.. Redwell relates an interesting ac-
count of what he considers remarkable
cure of acute stomach trouble and chronic
dyspepsia by the use of the new discov-
cry, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
He says; THE patient was a man who
had suffered to my knowledge for years
with dyspepsia. Everything he ate SEEM
ed to sour and. create acid and gases in
the stomach: he had pains like rheuma-
tism in the back, shoulder blades, and
limbs, fullness and distress after eating,
poor appetite and loss of flesh, the heart
became affected, causing palpitation and
sieepleSsness at night.
Il gave him powerful nerve tonics and
blood remedies, but to IL, purpose. AS an
experiment / finally bought a 50-cent
package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at
drug store and gave them to him. Al
most immediate relief was given and af-
ter he had used four boxes he was to all
appearances fully cured.
There was no more acidity or sour wa
terry risings, no bloating after meals, the
appetite was vigorous, and he has gained
between ten and twelve pounds in weight
of solid, healthy flesh.
although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are advertised and sold in drug stores, yet
l consider them most valuable addition
| to any physicians line of remedies, as
they are perfectly harmless and can be
| given to children or invalids or in any
| condition of the stomach with perfect
| safety, being harmless and containing
nothing but vegetable and fruit essences,
| pure pepsin and Golden Seal.
Without any question they are the
safest, most effective cure for indiges-
| ton, biliousness. constipation. and all de-
| rangements of the stomach however
| slight or severe"
| Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are made by
| the Stuart Co. of Marshall, Mich. and
sold by druggists everywhere at so cents

DISTRICT SOLDIER DEAD.
George Donohuez Succumbs to Fever
I'm Porto Rico.

Private George Donohue of Company
II. First District Regiment of Volunteers,
died August 2g at Fort Capron. Porto
Rico, and was buried with military hon
ors in the old Spanish cemetery at Guam
ica
The first intimation his mother had of
her boys death was contained in let
ter she received yesterday from Capt.
Henry B. LOCKER who commands Com
pany III.
Private Donohue would probably have
recovered from the fever had It not been
for a hurricane which blew down the
hospital tents, and the patients. being
without shelter, were drenched by a
heavy downpour of chilling rain.
Capt. LOCKER speaks in the highest
terms of this District Volunteer, who is
sleeping his last sleep under the tropical
skies of far-away Porto Rico, and says
when he returns to Washington he will
bring to the fearful mother the last pos
sessions of her dead soldier soma worn
