Too Much Eating.

Gluttony has its victims, hardly less
numerous than other vices. To overeat
is TO overburden the digestive organs to
such an extent that it will be impossi-
bic for them to perform their duties
properly. Deleterious products are Gre
ated, and health is finally destroyed. a
prominent judge used to say such men
dig their graves with their teeth-and
it is SO. On the other hand, there are
those who eat too little. All extremes
are evils that experience should govern.

Seeing the Sights.

Even IN these days of liberal educa-
tiOn young women sometimes show
how confused are the ideas shut up in
their heads. Illustrative Of this is the
naive blunder which Edmondo de
Amicis recounts in his story Of a voy-
age from Genoa to Buenos Ayres:
The captain of the steamer which
numbered the charming young blum
derer among its passengers met her one
morning and said:
"Signorina, we cross the tropic of
cancer today"
"Oh, indeed" she cried, with en-
thusiasm. "Then we shall see some
thing at last.

The native averred that his mother
in-law had attempted to entice her
daughter away from him, her lawful

WILL GIVE UP
THE PRISONERS
This Offer on the Part of the United
States Received Only Brief Ac-
acknowledgement from the Spanish
Government

NEW YORK, Aug. "a special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
The United States has magnanimously
offered to parole the 800 Spanish naval
prisoners taken at the destruction of
Admiral Cervera's feet, whenever Spain
is ready to repatriate them. With the
exception of the officers, who are en-
joying American hospitality within the
limits of Annapolis, the bulk of these
prisoners are confined to the naval sta
tion at Portsmouth, where they have
the liberty of large, picturesque island
and are comfortably quartered and fed
in temporary buildings erected for their
use. The offer OF this government was
made regardless of the approaching cul-
mination of peace negotiations and
simply with view of sending a larger
number of national guests, who had
considerably overstayed their welcome
and become burdensoue upon the host.
These Spaniards have suffered scarce
ly any of the restraints usually imposed
upon prisoners of war, but have been
cared for as tenderly as though they
were Americans.

ARRANGEMENT
OF SAMPSON
Chaplain McIntire Makes a Fearless
Denunciation of the Admiral--Also
Attacks Fighting Bob" Evans.

DENVER, Colo, Aug. 9.-In a lecture
delivered here, Chaplain Mcintyre, of
the battle-ship Oregon, spoke as follows
of Admiral sampson's report of the
battle with Cervera's fleet:
Sampson reported himself within
four miles of the Cristobal Colon when
she pulled down her flags. He did not
get a share of the prize money, for the
ship must be within four miles to share
in the money, Sampson will therefore
get $4,000 of the prize money, while
Captain Clark, who fought with the
Oregon as never man fought with
ship before, will get only $500, and you
who have had just exactly as much to do
with the battle as Sampson will not get
cent"
Mcintyre further said that when the
Spanish ships ran out of the harbor
the Iowa was within two miles
of them and the Oregon about three
miles. The Oregon, he said, tore up to
the front like shot and met the Iowa
moving to the rear, where, he added,
Evans kept her throughout the battle.
The chaplain offered no explanation of
this alleged maneuver of the Iowa.
Mcintyre boldly stated that the reason
eastern-made ships did not come up to
expectations was that the contractors
who made them got the contracts
through political pulls, and did rot care
how much they cheated the government.
The Oregon was the only one made hon
estly, he added.

Deainess cannot pe.ourea

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed. Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous SUR
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars; free.

WASHINGTON, Aug. "a dispatch
from Manila gives the following con-
cerning the fight near that place; -.
The advance of the third expedition of
General Green's troops toward Manila
made the Spaniards wild, and, after
having 1000 of his men tormenting
them for some time, they determined to
fight. For 300 yards trenches extended
to the left flank of the insurgents. As
Sunday was least day for the insur-
gents, the left flank withdrew and the
AmericaHrigh flank was exposed.
In the midst of tremendous down
pour OF rain, the enemy's force, esti-
mated at 800, attempted to surprise the
camp. Our pickets were driven in and
the trenches assaulted. The Pennsyl-
vania men stood their ground under a
whitening fire, until the First California
regiment, with two companies of the
Third artillery, reinforced them.
The enemy was on top of the trenches
