Washington, Sept 1.-THE presi-
dent has urged the following named

Secretary Alger to investigate the
conduct of the war: Lieut.. Gen. John
NJ. Schefield, Gen. John B. Gordon,
Gen. Greenville NJ. Dodge. President

ANIMATION known as the Woman's Relief
Corps, whose aid to the soldier of to-day,
fighting against the world for a living, is no
less notable than the heroism of the go
One of the most earnest members of the
corps at Byron, ILL.,, Is Mrs. James House
weart, but illness once put a stop to her
active work. A year or SO ago, when she
was nearing fifty years of age, the time
when women must be most careful of their
strength, Mrs. Houseweart was taken seri-
ously i'll. The family physician told her
that she had reached critical period of her
life, and must be very careful. His pre-
scriptions and treatment did not benefit her,
and other treatment proved unavailing.
At last DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People were brought to her notice, with in
disputable evidence that they were helpful
in cases such as hers, and with renewed hope
she tried the remedy. Last March she took
the first box of the pills, which gave much
relief. She was determined to be cured,
and kept on with the medicine, until now
eight boxes have been consumed, and she
feels like new woman.
Mrs Heuseweart said: '1 have taken
eight boxes, and have been improving since
took the first dose. 1 do not believe could
have lived without the pills. They have done
me more good than any physician or any
medicine I have ever tried"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are sold in boxes
(never in loose bulk) at so cents box or
six boxes for $3.50, and may be had of all
druggists, or direct by mail from Dr.. Viii

GEN. ALGER GOES HOME.

CHARGES AGAINST HIS DEPARTMENT.
Secretary Alger Says the Work the war

quest for an investigation of the De-
partment Mentioned.

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 11.-Secretary
A1ger arrived from the east this morn
ng. Accompanying him were Mrs.
Alger and their son, Capt Fred Alger,
who is gradually recovering from
lever, contracted in Cuba, also Col.
9ecker and Maj. Hopkins. the secre-
'ary of wars aids, both Detroiters-
rhe general upon alighting warmly
greeted Gov. Pingree. To reporters
Zen. Alger remarked all he would say
now was that he was glad to get home,
and especially to breathe the Michigan
air again. The secretary was then
driven to his residence, accompanied
oy Gov. Pingree.
After arriving home Gen. Alger
said he expected to remain for a week.
Being asked to make a statement for
publication relative to the charges
against his administration of the war
department, the secretary replied:
Now, what do you want me to do? Get down
in the sewer with these sensational people?
They are not worrying me- There is nothing
to the charges excepting somebody's desire to
make political capital The work the depart
ment has had to do in so short time has been a
great tax The commissary and quartermas-
ters' departments have had distribution of more
than 800 tons of provisions, rations and forage
daily part of which has involved tranSporta-
tion more than half around the world 1t is
not surprising that some few slips have been
made have asked the president to appoint
the strongest commission possible to secure, to
conduct an inquiry into the conduct OF the war.
1t will be made up of some of the ableSt army
officers, and it's work will be of the greatest i'm
portaDce, applied to the past and as affect
ing the future. Its greatest value will be In
perfecting the entire organization of the army
and applying in this provision the lessons OF
the mast.

Commissions Instructions Do Not In
clude Retaining the Philippines.

Washington, Sept. lit was
learned at the state department that
the president and his advisers have. in
a general way, decided upon instruc-
tons which win be given to the peace
commission, but that the instructions
have not yet been finally drafted
and will not be until after further
conference between the president
and his cabinet Those in position to
know intimate that the commission
will be instructed to insist upon the
cession of Manila, the harbor of Cavite
and portion of the island of Luzon
as territory to be absolutely coded to
the United States, while guarantees
for the proper government of the adj
jacent islands and pledges against
their cession to other countries will be
required from Spain as one of the pre-.
requisites of treaty of peace.

wELLNIGH BRUTAL.
Without Cause for HIS
Unkfndness.

He was a well meaning young man.
He had a way, however. of standing by
the side of a piano and rolling his eyes at the
chandelier while unsweet noises gurgled
from his throat. Friends were too kind to
suggest to him that his efforts were other
than melodious- Such is the patient charity
of this much maligned world.
The man with iron gray side whiskers and
an eagle eye showed signs of overtested en-
durance. 1t was his daughter who was play
ing Accomplishments, and it was his gas they
were burning.

"Why, right away"
The questioner took out his watch and
said:
'Well, I'm afraid you haven't much time
to spare. The next train for the west goes
in less than three-quarters of an hour, and
you'll have to start for the Wabash far away,
right away, if you're going to sing there be-
