"Nearly all my life I have had one cold
after another and the trouble seemed like
catarrh in the head. There were dis
charges from my ears, and my hearing
became affected. I took a number Of
kinds of medicine but I grew worse in
stead of better. One day I procured q
bottle of Hoods Ssrsaparilla and began
taking it, and soon found 1t was doing
me good. I gained strength and was
greatly benefited in many ways. I con-
inued its use and now the bad feeling in
my head is gone, and the earache with

pleted not later than Nov. 1, but the
present indications are that the first
of November will find them still nego-
tiating with the representatives of
Spain. There is no Indication that
the Spanish authorities either at Mad
rid or at Havana have taken a single
step toward preparing for the trans
portation of the 100, 600 Spanish troops
which are to be sent TO Spain as re-
suit of the fulflment of the evacuation
conditions. The Porto Rican Commits
sion has pursued its labors with great
er celebrity and success. 1t has already
arranged for the debarkation of the
greater portion of the Spanish forces
on the island at the timo Of the ending
of the war, and orders have already
been issued for the the sending of the
first lot of American troops to take
the places of the Spanish troops being
withdrawn.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-Sec. Long.
upon advices at the state department,
showing the existence of threatening
conditions in China, has ordered Ad-
miral Dewey to send two warships
Immediately from Manila to a point
as near to the Chinese capital as pos
sible for a warship to approach. The
vessels selected are the Baltimore and
Petrol. 1t is expected that the Balti-
more will not be able to get beyond
the Taku forts at the entrance of the
Pang Hei river upon which Pekin is
situated. But the Petrol being of
smaller proportions, may be able TO
reach Tien Tsin, so miles above the
mouth and about the same distance
below Pekin. The officials keenly re-
greet that there is not now on the AS
iatic light draught gunboat Of the
Helena class, which could ascend the
river as far as the Chinese capital.

At the joint session Wednesday
morning of the United States and
Spanish military commissions the
Spaniards, according to report, de-
clared it was impossible to evacuate
the island Immediately, while the
American commissioners insisted that
their instructions called for an imIne-
date evacuation. After two hours
conference on the subject the joint
commissions were unable to reach
any definite agreement. The Am eri-
can commissioners, on their return to
their headquarters at the Urotcha Ho
tel, at Velado, were busily engaged in
translating the stenographer's notes
and in sending code messages to Wash
ington.

The United States Peace Commits :
sion held it's usual session Wednesday
from 10 a. m. to p. N. The commits
sioners continued their conference
with Major General Merritt, which
lasted all day yesterday, and practi-
cally concluded an extended canvass
of the Philippine situation.
The members of the com mission re-
fused to disclose the views of General
Merritt or Admiral Dewey in regard
to the policy to be pursued towards
the people of the Philippines.
Nothing could be learned as to
whether the general or the admiral
had recommended the retention or
the evacuation Of the Philippines by
the American force; but it developed
Merritt communication setting forth
his Judgment on the subject, and that
the general submitted this to the COM
mission with reports from the Ameri-
can military officers at Manila touch
ing on the condition prevailing in the
islands. General Merritt concluded
with a declaration Of his Judgment in
the matter, and it may be said that he
arrived in Paris, hoping the United
States Commission would press for the
possession of the Philippine archipel-
ago. tits also true that the disposition

CLUSTERING out THE SOLDIERS.

Maj. Jocelyn of Burlington, began
on Monday morning his duty of mus
tering out the soldiers in the First
Vermont Volunteers and as about
three days will be consumed with each
company it Will be month before all
the troops are out of service. Com
pany H of Montpelier was the first
company mustered out and Barre and
Mortified will follow. The st. Johns
bury company will not be reached for
at least two weeks, though Capt. Ellis
hopes to know the exact date very
soon. Maj. S. P. Jocelyn will be as
sisted by Capt. Hovey. The examin-
ing surgeon will be DR.. Synder of Fort
Ethan Allen. A Government paymas-
ter asked for by Maj. Jocelyn and will
accompany the party.
The ceremony of mastering out is
very simple and there is no formality.
Each man is given a thorough physi-
cal examination. One object peing of
course, to refer to his case should he
have a claim against the government
for disability. But it is the main, a
military measure. The men were ex-
amined when they came, and are eX-
amined when they go. All names are
placed on the mastering out rolls, in
Guiding those who have joined since
mastering in, those who have been
transferred, promoted etc. Each man
is paid all that is owing him, and that
fact is noted too. He is then honor
ably discharged.
The Vermont regiment mustered
nto service May IL and has served
Uncle Sam nearly five months.

The war department has decided to
send more troops to Porto Rico. Or
ders have been issued directing that
the 9Th Reg. Cav, now at Huntsville,
Ala, the 9th Z. S. Vol. Inf, now at
Chickamauga, and the 47th n. Y,
now at Fort Adams, shall proceed to
such point in Porto Rico as may be
described by the commanding gener-
al in that island.
1t is thought that troops sent to
garrison duty in Cuba will not remain
long, but when they have seen service
for few months will return to this
country. The same is probably true
as to Porto Rico. 1t is also intimated
that when the troops return the vol
unteers will be given so days fur
Tough and be mustered out. By that
time Congress will have had an OPP
portunity to determine what should
be done in regard to garrisoning the
new possessions.
This determination is no doubt due
to the pressure that has been brought
by a number Of congressman for the
mastering ont Of the volunteers from
their states and districts. The respon
sibility for furnishing troops for gar
rison duty and for army duty gener-
ally will be upon congress. The re-
commentators of the President and
the war department will have been
made before the return of the troops
from either Cuba or Porto Rico, and
the necessities of the case made
known.

Gen. Merritt, on his arrival at Manila,
found Gen. Greene's command suffer-
ing many discomforts, ''the camp be-
ing situated in a low, fat place, with
out shelter from the heat Of the trop-
zeal sun or adequate protection during
the terrific downpours Of rain so fire.
quent at this season"
He was at once struck by the exem-
plary spirit of patience, even cheer
full, endurance shown by the officers
and men under such circumstances.
Concerning the insurgents, General
Merritt says that they numbered at
the ime of his arrival probably not
far from $4,000 men, we'll supplied
with small arms, with plenty Of am
munition and several field guns, and
they had obtained positions Of invest
ment opposite the Spanish line of de-
tached works throughout their entire
extent.
GAS Gen. Aguinaldo did not visit
me on my arrival nor offer his servic
es as a subordinate military leader,
and as my instructions from the Presi
dent fully contemplated the occupa-
ton of the islands by the American
land forces, and stated that the pow
ers Of the military occupant are abso-
lutte and supreme and Immediately
operate upon the political condition
of the inhabitants,' [ did not consider
it wise to hold any direct communica-
ton with the insurgent leader until I
should be in possession of Manila, es-
pecially as [ would not until then be
in a position to issue a proclamation,
and enforce my authority in the event
that his pretensions should clash with
my designs"
For these reasons the preparations
for the attack on the city were press
ed and military operations conducted
without reference to the situation of
the insurgents. The wisdom of this
course was subsequently fully estab-
lished by the fact that when the troops
of my command carried the Spanish
intrenchments extending from the sea
to the Pasay road, on the extreme
Spanish right, we were under no
obligations, by prearranged plans Of
mutual attack, to turn to the right
and clear the front still held against
the insurgents, out were able to move
forward at once and occupy the city
snd suburbs.
The story of the battle has already
been told. In conc .uding it Gen. Mer-
rift says:
II submit that for troops to enter
under fire, a town covering a wide
area, to rapidly deploy and guard all
principal points in the extensive sub
urbs, to keep out the insurgent forces
pressing for admittance, to quietly
disarm an army of Spaniards more !
than equal in number to the American
troops, and finally by all this, to pre-
vent entirely all rapine, pillage and
disorder and gain entire and complete
possession of city of 900 people, /
filed with natives hostile to the Eu-
ropean interests and stirred up by the T
knowledge that their own people were
fighting in the outside trenches, was
an an act which only the law abiding, /
temperate, resoluto American soldier,
we'll and skilfully handled by his regi-
mental and brigade commander could .
accomplish"

NATIONAL ISSUES.

The coming political issues in the
United States are likely to be inspired
more and more by the underlying
causes which have given US free coin
age of silver and gree nbackism, but it
does not at all follow that they will
continue to he Of IA monetary charac-
ter. So long as the price delusion re-
mains, doubtless some phase of the
money question will appear as po-
litical issue. But this will not be the
essential element; sooner or later,
the United States must face the inevi-
table political issue between the social
istic and the non socialistic concep-
tionl of government. 1t is, indeed,
strange that our national issues have
not already assumed more of this
character. European countries have
for years had to put forth most
strenuous effort in the political strug-
gle to maintain the existing ideas of
government and property. We can
not escape the coming. issue in the
United States. In the past, political
leaders have very skillfully made and
pushed to the front those issues which,
1nder the circumstances, would best
serve their personal ambitions. 1t is
really astonishing how successfully
few men in charge OF the respective
parties, by adroit management, keep
down this issue and put up that, and
force a decision upon them in the cam
paigns Yet sometimes the stream
will break over it's barriers. In 1896,
for example, the long suppressed So
cialistic spirit refused to be controlled,
and spread itself over the Chicago
platform. The particular form in
which the issues were presented was
not the most significant thing, but the
final appearance of the underlying
cause itself in national politics. 1t
was not merely the free coinage of
silver, or the attacks upon the Su-
preme Court, which created an epoch
making year in American politics, but
it was the first open appearance of a
socialjstic theory of government,
which happened to emergein the guise
Of the price question.-Prof. McLdu9h-

One the Tailor.

When Poole, the famous tailor, was
an old man he was at Brighton on a
vacation, and one afternoon went out
to walk upon the pier. A young man
was also upon the pier with a couple
Of ladies, to whom he said, as he saw
Poole coming:
Nov, you wouldn't take that good
looking man for tailor, but he is.
Just listen while I take him down a
notch or two. I'll tell him my coat,
which have just had from him, doesn't
fit."
AS he spoke Poole approached and po-
litely acknowledged the salutation of
his customer, who, walking up to him,
said: Here, Poole, now do take look
at me. Does this coat fit?"
Poole took in the situation. ssIt GER
tainly does not fit" said he, and pulling
out piece of French chalk he proceed
ed literally to mark and cross the coat
all over, and then observed, with the
utmost urbanity: "Now, if you will
kindly send that coat to my shop the
alterations shall be attended to."-Tid

A Historical Desk.

Charles Loeffier, the veteran door
keeper of the Presidents room, has a
new desk. The old one has served him
over twenty eight years. It was an old
desk when it was first turned over to
Loeffier. 1t had been an intimate ac-
quaintance of President Lincoln, and
in stirring times would have absorbed
many things had it been human. At
the old desk thousands Of prominent
men have sat to write cards to send in
to the President. Cabinet members
have sat at the dask and written their
names for autograph seekers. Great
men have congregated around it and
talked over matters of the highest inn
portance. 1t Is an old fat-top desk,
with single row of pigeonholes, the
lower part containing drawers. 1t is
probable that the desk will be pre-
served. Loeffier would like to keep it
for himself as a companion which has
served him faithfully so many years.
