Electric BitterS.

Electric Bitters is a medicine for any season, but perhaps more generally needed in the Spring, when the languid exhausted feeling prevails, when the sliver is torpid and sluggish and the need of tome aterative is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers. No medicine will act more sure- ly in counteractng and freeing the system from the nalarial poison. Head ache, indigestion, constipation, dizzi- ness yield to Electric Bitters. Only soc per bottle at J. E. Harbert's drug store

A Man Who is Tired

All the time, owing to impoverished blood, should take Hoods Sarsaparil- la to purify and enrich his blood and give him vitality and vigor. This condition of weakness and lack of energy is natural consequence of the coming of warmer weather, which finds the system debilitated and the blood impure.
 A good spring medicine is a necessity with almost everyone. Hoods Sar- saparilla is what the millions take in the spring. It's great power to purify and enrich the blood and build up health is one of the facts of common experience.

SENIOR AGONCILLO
Discredits Report That France Will Re-
 cognize the Philippi1 Republic.

Chicago, September 26.-Major General
 Francis V. Green, of the American az ny
 of invasion of the Philippines, and Senor
 Felipe Angoncillo, vice-president of Agun-
 aldo's revolutionary government, arrived
 in Chicago today en route to Washington.
 General Greens errand is to give the ex-
 ecutive his views and the views of his fe'-
 low officers concerning the right course for
 this government to pursue in regard to the
 futuIe of the islands The Philippine goes
 to appeal to the president for representa-
 tion on the Paris peace commission and
 for immediate independence for his peo-
 pie.
 During the day Senor Angoncillo, ht his
 own request, was driven to Lincoln Park
 to see the big bronze statue of Abraham
 Lincoln, who the Philippine statesman said
 was his ideal American statesman and citi- zen. About ten or fifteen minutes was spent at the statue, Senor Angoncillo bar ring his head to lone of the greatest of the worlds rulers" as he put 1t.
 Tn all my historical studies I have paid the most attention to the growth of the power and influence of this United States | government" said Senor Angoncillo. "It | is my ideal of a government and it Is | the pattern which the Philippine people | will follow when they are independent. I | have visited the courts of China and Ja- | pan, but there is nothing in either of | those empires that compares to the free | dom of this country. This is the land that l we have looked up to for many years and | the one in whose footsteps we have tried to follow. Agoncilllo discredited the re- port that France had promised to recog-
 nize the Philippine republic, and intimated that his sole hopes of independence were with President Mckinley and the govern ment of the United States.
 General Green refused to talk to the nature of his report to President McKin- ley but expressed a very high opinion of the Phillipnos men and fighters. The inhabitants of the islands, he says, are su- perior in every way to the Cubans or to the North American Indians, and once they are freed from Spanish oppression have a magnificent future before them. General Green and Senor Angoncillo left for Wash ington later in the day over the Pennsyl- vania road.

THE DRUM MOND DEAL.
Am 'rican Tobacco Company Stock on
 the Decline.

St. Louis, September 26-The Republic will say tomorrow:
 There has been O ehrinkoge of over $3, ,000,- 900 value of the common stock or-tha American Tobacco company within the last ten days. The bulk of this loss has been sustained since the negotiations for the purchase of the big Drummond plant in this city became public. Yesterday the stock went down s9 a share from the high point of Saturday, tho local drop within the last ten days being s147a a share. This decline on the s21 ,0O0O OOO of common stock of the company brings the loss up to the enor- nous figures given. In anticipation of further drop the bears in the St. Louis market have betp selling the stock short. a fact which tends to still further break down the market.
 Only few days ago the stock was up to 153% per share, but as soon as the an- nouncement was officially made that the company was negotiating for the purchase of tho Drummond plant the market began to break, and when it became known that the American company had not paid the cash demanded by President Drummond for his stock the bottom began to fall out.
 When President Duke of the American company left thl city last Wednesday it was rumored that he would arrange to have the cash placed to the credit of the Drum mond company in New York, but when he failed to do that and 1t became known that the company would have to issue new stock or bonds to pay for tho Drummond plant, the bears began to get in their work.
