Life and the Liver.

Success in life depends upon the liver"
is the way Chas Lamb, the poet and punster,
put it. Medical science has proven, that
nine-tenths of the ailments Of living have
their origin in the liver and in constipation
caused by its arrangements. Keep the liver
lively and all will be well. Modern science
points out Cascarets as the only perfect,
gentle, positive liver regulator fit TO be used

SEA COAST PATROL.

Three Thousand Men are Watching for tho
Approach of an Enemy or Signals from
Our Ships.
Washington, May "a. Under the
management of Capt. Bartlett, who
was recalled from the retired list into
the active service of the navy depart
ment for the purpose, there has just
been perfected a most thorough sys-
TEN of coast signalling for war pur-
poses. The navy department estab-
lished 80 stations on the coast, manned
by naval militiamen. Then it called
into service LOGO lighthouse employees
and 1000 life saving men, making a
total force of over 1000 men who patrol
the great shore line from Bar Harbor
to Galveston, night and day and in all
weather. watching for the approach OF
an enemy or for signal from any
passing United States warship.
1t has been arranged tnat all of these
watchers can communicate in the
course of a few minutes with tele-
graph or telephone line and all center
in the office of Capt. Bartlett in the
navy department, who is thus prepared
to give the war board instant notice OF
any significant ship movements on the
coast,

Port au Prince, May 25.-A local

who left for New York on Sunday on
board a Dutch steamer, saw at Curacao
Spanish squadron composed of five
cruisers and five torpedo boat destroy
ers or torpedo boats. The Spanish Off
GERS are reported to have said they
would not accept battle unless with
an equal number of ships and that they
would avoid encountering superior
numbers. Admiral Osborne did not
consider the Spanish squadron to be il
any way formidable.

San Francisco, May 23.-The Charles
ton is well on her way to Manila.
The big cruiser passed through the
Golden Gate yesterday morning, after
having been anchored in the stream all
night Every steam vessel in the har-
Dor blew au revoir to Capt. Glass and
his crew. None of the forts in the
harbor salutcd the vessel, but the dem
onstration made by the soldiers at the
Presidio was tremendous. When the
vessel was sighted coming down the
bay the soldiers gathered on the beach
and cheered the ship.
The Charleston's big siren answered
the boys on the beach time and again
and the whistling was heard from one
end of the city to the other.
There are 10,999 enlisted men and
474 officers gathered at the two mill
tary camps in this city. The Presidio
reservation is the temporary home
of nearly 1000 men, including those
from this city, Washington and Oregon;
in fact the camp is the headquarters of
the Pacific men. The troops from Min
nesota, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas
| and Colorado are quartered on the site
of the old Bay District race track,
which has been divided into town lots,
covering about 12squares. Each square
will accommodate 1000 men. This city
of tents has been named Fort Rich
mond and shelters about $500 men.
On Saturday evening Lieut.. Col. Fife
| assembled the two Washington bat
talions in hollow square and asked
every man who did not want to go to
Manila to hold up his hand. No hands
| were raised.
"Those who want to go to Manila at
once" said he.
The growing darkness partly OBJ
scured the field of hands that shot into
the air, but there was no mistal1ing the
yell that made the air ring. Manila

their delight at the chance to show
their feeling they hugged each other
and cheered their colonel, the flag and
the state of Washington.

NAVAL EXPERTS BOAST.

rhey Claim that Ono Monitor Could Botto
Up tho Spanish Fleet at Santiago de Cuin
- Army Omcors Demand Conveys for
Troop Ships.
Washington, May 2t.-All the news
that was given out Friday at the navy
department was comprised in one
short bulletin stating that the depart
ment had information, believed to be
authentic, that Admiral Cervera with
his Spanish flying squadron was at
Santiago de Cuba. This went to con-
firm the newspaper reports and also
the Madrid cablegram published Fri
day morning, the latter a rather un-
usual circumstance, for the Spanish
bulletins have been notably deceptive
ever since the flying squadron left
Cadiz. On looking over the charts
of Santiago harbor the experts
discovered that the place would be a
veritable rat trap for the Spaniards
with its narrow entrance, in which a
single American monitor could bottle
up the whole Spanish fleet.
Gen. Miles had another long con-
sultation yesterday with Secretary
Long and these repeated meetings are
construed to mean that a point has
been reached in the campaign where
the army finds it necessary to call upon
the navy for conveys to take troops to
Cuba. This work is extra hazardous
at present. Conveys always are ex-
posed to destruction at the hands of a
determined enemy, and with squad
ron of fleet Spanish cruisers and tor
pedo gunboats of great speed lying in
wait somewhere near Cuba, nothing
but the most formidable convoy, such
as would be afforded by all of Samp-
sons and Schley's ironclads save the
monitors, would give reasonable de-
gree of protection against attack.

torals stating that Spain and God are
preparing to ''cut out these social ex-
crescences from America" The pas

in refusing to lombard Manila as due
to fear. There is some anxiety here
because of the non-arrival of American
troops and the American consulate is
crowded with volunteers.
