.sHOBsON'S CHOICE"
Nsn YORK World.

~
Whenever the question What is t.
be done for Hobson? is put to tEe
proper officials at Washington, the
reply has invariably been: eve ars
waiting to find out from him what b
wants"
/. That is, hero is to be requested e
put q price on his heroism, to estlmats
carefully the worth of his own galI
lantry.
at first glance the proposal seems
generous. On second thought it bei
gins to take on al aspect OF sordl9
Yulgarity. It invites Hobson to maEY
a second self-sacrifee by modestl4
asking for some very little reWard-5
day off "to see his Belle Aurore,a 4
perhaps. Or it compels him 10 put
himself forward as concelted hero
who thinks be ought to have the esrth
and the moon also as a reward.
That is, the officials at Washington
threaten this hero with true prover..
bal "Hobson's choice"-a choice OF
evils, choice that is no choice at all.
Clearly, the Only way in which this
matter Of just recognition can properly
and decertlv be left to Hobson 1s by
arranging two distinct. and definite
schemes of promotion and letting him
choose between them.
And incidentally it may be well to
remark thst the World has information
of the plans Of certain enemies OF
Hobson at Washington, and that they
will only make trouble for themselves
if they insist upon the proverblal
nHobson's choice" instead OF an hon
est, generous American choice for
Hobson. Perhaps the officials who are
now being deceived by these same in.
triguers will realize from this hint
what sort Of business they are in dan:
ger of aiding.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of The country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incRrable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incUrable. Science
has proven catarrh to be constitu-
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. HalPs Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by +. j.
Cheney 6 Co., Toledo, Ohio, Is the
only constitutional cure on the market.
It is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonfnl. 1t acts directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it fails to cure.

When the war with Spain was
declared the president called for vol
unteers. To this call the 2d Mass. re-
sponded, and was the first regiment
of volunteers to be mustered into the
United States service. With the in
vasion of Cuba the I'd regiment was
among the first of the volunteers to
taste Spanish bullets. They encount
cred all the hardships of the cam
paign, and suffered all the neglect
which negligent department could
inflict upon it. The story of the 2d
from the start until the day of its mus
tering out will be graphically told by
/. Newton Greene (the only newspa-
per correspondent who spent every
day and night with the I'd Mass. dur
ing its active service) in The Boston
