In the annual report to the President,
Secretary Of the Navy Long called at
tention to the fact that while we are
adding new ships and boats to the navy
we are not providing for an increase
In the number OF men to man them,
and especially We are not providing as
We must for the increase of officers of
the line. We need engineers especially
In large number. The latest dispatches
state that the House committee having
the natterinc charge has agreed to report
bill authorizing the enlargement Of
the corps for the navy by a thousand
men. Besides, there is to be provision
for accepting 500 additional apprentices.
There is nothing said about compliance
with the other recommendations of the
Secretary, namely, concerning increase
in the number of the officers Of the
line and especially concerning the
pressing need for stimulation of entry
into the engineer corps. This must
be granted in time. 1t will be useless
to build and man ships without Off
GERS sufficient to command and work
them. As 1t is, there are not suffi-
Gent to provide for the ordinary
watches aboard ship.

moment a blockade of the island can
be effected. So far as that is con-
ceTned, it is to be replied that the
United States Government will not
brook any dictation as to where she
shall or where she may not sail or
station her navy on the high seas. But
the -Imparcial' does not speak the
voice of the Government. 1t is a
nervous and excitable sheet, and none
of its forecasts have proved correct.
The news is, however, that there is
sudden renewal of great activity in
Spanish naval ship yards, and in foreign
yards where Spanish ships are building,
as though the nation fears trouble and
is making ready for it.

there will be less danger from later
frosts.. With good rains in February
and March, for which the outlook is now
favorable, there will be an excellent
crop, and stocks on hand are so light
that there is a corresponding prospect
of good prices.
In this city there is a good deal of
building in progress and contemplated

and laborers- That in turn will make
trade for our merchants and so the
probabilities are all for a favorable

Calaveras Prospect: What a great
place Calaveras would be for the pros
pector if all the land and rockpiles, now
surrounded by wire fences and held by
people who in most cases are as unpro-
gressive, indolent and impecunious as
goat ranchers, were thrown open to ex-
ploration. Thousands of acres Of good
mining land are thus tied up to the det-
rin1ent of the miner. Lands upon which
a goat, if left the year round would
starve to death, are held for grazing,
and lands upon which nothing but
cloud of dust could be raised are called
agricultural. Notwithstanding that
there might be rich mineral deposits on
these same lands, the prospector must
keep off because of these absurd claims
which the law justifies.

NERVOUS DEPRESSION.
IA TALK WITH MRS. PrNKHAM.l

A woman with the blues is very un-
comfortable person. She is illogical,
unhappy and frequently hysterical.
The condition of the mind known as
"the blues" nearly always, with wo-
men, results from diseased organs of
generation.
1t is source of wonder that in this
age of advanced medical science, any
person should still believe that mere
force of will and determination will
overcome depressed spirits and nerv-
BUSINESS in women. These troubles are
indications of disease.
Every woman who doesn't under
stand her condition should write to
Lynn, Mass, to Mrs. Pinlham for her
advice. Her advice is thorough COM
mon sense, and is the counsel of q
learned woman of great experience.
Read the story of Mrs. F. S. BENNETT,
Westphalia, Kansas, as told in the fol-
lowing letter:
DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I have suf-
fercd for over two years with falling,
enlargement and liberation of the
womb, and this spring, being in such
weakened condition, caused me to
flow for nearly six months. Some time
ago, urged by friends, wrote to you
for advice. After using the treatment
which you advised for short time,
that terrible flow stopped.
Il am now gaining strength and
flesh, and have better health than
have had for the past ten years. 1
wish to say to all distressed, suffer-
ing women, do not suffer longer, when
there is one so kind and willing to
aid you"

pound is u woman's remedy for wo-
mans ills. More than million wo-
men have been benefited by it.

Scovel and Others.

If it is true, as reported, that
Sylvester Scovel, war correspondent
of New York newspaper, slapped
General Shafter's face because he
was not permitted to help raise the
American flag over Santiago, and
thus give noisy and clamorous
newspaper an opportunity to tell
with pen and pencil how its repre-
sentative raised the American flag
over the Spanish city, Scovel should
at the very least occupy military
prison until the end of the war.
He represents a class of news
paper men who disgust one with
disgusting newspapers. These men,
if their stories could be believed,
conduct all campaigns, advise all
movements, capture prisoners, make
officers stand around and are full
of all sorts of biggold nonsense, as
Mr.. Sparkler would say. But for
tunately nobody believes what these
men write and all are content to get
real news from men who don't sign
their names to their news articles.
The men of the Scovel stripe al
ways make themselves offensive.
One of them was invited to leave an
American warship during the block
ade of Havana by Sampson's big
ships. Scovel was found slowed
away in government tug and de-
prived of the right to accompany
the navy. And there are others
who have been offensive but have
been more gently treated because
more easily "called down."
1t would be a good thing for all
newspapers if such men and the
papers they represent could be en-
tirely and forever squelched. Decent
newspapers would be the better for
their absence and the morals of the
public would be the gamer for their
suppression. Scovel will richly de-
serve whatever he shall get and the
scovel newspapers deserve nothing
better.-Harrisburg Patriot

SECRETARY LONG.
HIS POSITION AT THE HEAD OF THE
NAVY DEPARTMENT NO SINECURE,

IL Chief of the Bureaus of Ordinance,
Equipment Accounts ana Construction
An Immense Amount OF Business Ac-
complished Each Day.
A day at the Navy Department,
such as the writer recently spent, is
full of instruction as to what 1t means
to be the head of the navy in war
time. The place is assuredly no sim
ecure. Secretary Long reaches his Of
tice promptly at 8 o'clock every MORN
Ing. After thirty minutes with his
mail. the stream Of people who are
waiting in the large ante-room begins
to pour In upon him. 1t is the eti-
quette Of the department that when
ever a Senator arrives he has the
right of way over all others, no mat
ter how long they may have been
waiting there before him. A Repre-
sentative in Congress also has pre-
cedence of general callers.
Dispatches of all sorts are contin-
ually coming In, and the Secretary is
kept busy debating answers to them.
Communications from the department
Of navigation, which deals with the
personnel of the service, detailing the
officers to the various ships and or
dering the ships hither and thither,
have to receive prompt attention.
The bureau of ordnance makes an
other large daily demand upon the
Secretary's time. This bureau deals
with all matters relating TO ammuni-
tion, projectiles, weapons, and arma-
ment generally.
