Sunlmer's Work.

summers Work.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-Admiral Schley
today presented to the president, the secre-
tary of state and the secretary of war copies
of the report Of the Porto Rican evacuation
commission. This report contains a record
of the proceedings Of the commission from
day to day, all of the interesting features
of which have been published. In the main
it is nothing more than a transcript of the
daily record of proceedings Of the commits
sion. noting each proposal made to the Span
ish commissioners and their counter propo-
sitions and winding up with an account OF
the ceremonies attending the end of Spanish
sovereignty and the assumption OF control
by the United States forces.
The admiral is looking thin and worn as
the result of his labors aloat and ashore
during the past summer. He IL deslrous OF
taking a rest in the mountains for a few
weeks before undertaking any active duty.
AS to his next assignment he says that he
has made a request and is content to allow
tho Navy department to decide that ques-
ton.
Coming to the Navy department about 10
o'clock, Admiral Schley called first u2on
Captain Croninshield, chief OF the naviga-
ton bureau, in company with Lieutenan:
Sears and Ensign McCauley Of his staff. His
presence was announced to Secretary Long,
and he chatted a few minutes with Captain
Croninshield until he was admitted to the
secretary's office. The conference between
Secretary Long and the admiral lasted nearly
half an hour, and at the end of that time the
admiral quietly slipped over to the White

When BAby's III.

When the little loved one is sick, when
Its brow is fevered, its pulse rapid, its
features pinched with pain and there are
great blue circles under its eyes, the mother
hovers about the bedside, and with anxious
eyes tries to read the meaning of every ex-
preston upon the physicians fsSe.
A woman may save herself almost all of
this worr,ment about her children if she
will but take proper care of her womanly
health during the period of CESSATION. A
child born of a mother who is thoroughly
healthy in a womanly way will almost
u%nfailingly be healthy and robust. DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription acts directly
on the delicate n important organs that
hear the burdens of maternity. 1t makes
them we'll, strong and vigorous. 1t heals
all internal liberation and inflammation.
1t stops debilitating drains. II fits for
motherhood and insures a healthy child.
Thousands of happy mothers have testified
to its merits. No honest dealer will urge
you to take an inferior substitute for the
little added profit it may afford him.
"A lady told me that DIR, Pierce's ravorite
Prescription was good to take when with child"
writes Mrs. Annie Simpson, Of No. Is chelms-
ford Street, Lawrence, Mass II was suffering
terrible pains, and was unable to get about the
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and the first
bottle greatly relieved me. took three bottles
before my baby was born, at which time ] suf-
fered very little. The baby has been healthy
weighs hheen pounds. When my older child
was born ] suffered terribly, ! don't know how
TO thank Or. Pierce enough"
They don't simply give temporary relief,
but are a permanent cure-Dr. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets for constipation. They
never grippe. One little Pellet" is a
aentle laxative and two a mild cathaIic.

PURSUING THE PATHS or rEAcE.
Indians On sioux Reservation Taking
Long steps Toward Civilization.


CHADRON, Neb.. Nov. 12.-(Special)-
The Indians on the Sioux reservation in
South Dakota were never in a more peacea-
bic or prosperous condition than at the
present time. The reports which have been
sent out for some time past from corre-
spondents remote from the Pine Ridge
dams we're on the verge OF an uprising,
but such is not the case.
The story OF 500 young Indians having
banded together or organized to subvert the
existing order OF things Is entirely and
wholly untrue. The Indians are now as
quiet and contented as they have been
at any time in the past. AS evidence OF
the progress that they are making there
are thirty-two day schools and a large board
Ing school In operation on the reservation.
and practically all the Indian children Of
school age are now, for the first time, in
school.
During the last two years Major Clapp,
the agent. has sold to these Indians haying
machinery, wagons and harness to the value
Of more than $40, 600, all of which they
have paid for from their own earnings. and
this has been taken up and credited to the
United States. They pay for all repairing
done at the agency shops and they are
steadily learning to value property and
money. The Sioux Indians on the Pine
Ridge reserve are the owners Of over 40, 900
head OF horned stock, and sell annually to
the government more than $500. 900 pounds
OF beef raised by themselves. During the
present year over 5000 calves were branded.
Crime on the reservation is compare
lively small.

HALLER CANDIDATE FOR SPEAKER.
Washington County Man Early in the
Field for the Place.

BLAIR, Neb., Nov. 1~2.-(Special. 1.-THE
republicans OF Washington county are feel
Ing very jubilant over the recent election.
Every republican on the ticket in the
county. even down to supervisor. was elected.
Washington county has the honor OF saw
ing the republican senator from this district
as he was defeated in his own county.
Dodge, but Washington gave him enough
to elect him. The populists put lots of money
out In every precinct to defeat the legisla-
tive ticket, especially w. d. Halter for rep.
resentative. Halter was elected by a good
majority considering the fight that was
made on him. He will be a prominent can
didate for speaker Of the house and has
already many promises of help from repre-
sentatives with whom he is acquainted.
The populists think their defeat Is in part
caused by the abuse Hitchcock made on
President Mckinley in his speech at Blair
and through the county. Several who usually
vote the popullst ticket were loyal to the
government and went to the polls and voted
the straight republican ticket. Sixty per
cent of the votes in the county were
straight this year, the first time in the his
tory OF Washington county.
