ORDERED TO RELIEVE DEWEY.
Roar Admiral watson to Procee d to Man =
lila ut OGce-Dewey will Stay as Com
missioner.

Washington, D. c., May 9.-Formnl ord-
ers have been issued by Secretary Long
directing Rear Admiral John &. Watson
to proceed to Manila to relieve Admiral
Dewey as commander in-chief CT the
ASiatiC station
This action Is in accordance with the IN
timations received from the admira! OF his
desire to return to the united States, and
the request of Rear Admiral Watson to be
assigned to duty as his relief the rear
admiral will relinquish command OF the
Mare Island navy yard Immediately and
will sail from San Francisco on May l6
Secretary Long says that Rear Admiral
Watson would not succeed Admiral Dewey
as a member of the Philippine commits
| sion.
1.-The admiral will remain In Manila un-
| til the commissions work is completed"
! he continued. He is too important u
member to be Immediately relieved. 1t Is,
OF course, impossible to state when the
! commission will close up its work, that
| being dependent upon the time when the
| inSurrection will be brought to an emo. but
when the admiral determines to return ne
will turn over the command to Hear Adj
miral Watson, who has been directed 10
report to him"
Secretary Long will direct Admiral Dew
ey to return to the United States on board
his flagship, the Olympia.
! 1t is expected that the Admiral. as a
mark of courtesy to his successor, will
send the Baltimore also a flagship 70
Hong Kong to meet the mail steamer car
rying Rear Admiral Watson, and the war
vessel will carry the new COMMANDMENTS
chief to Manila,
No orders haveyct been given for Admir-
al Deweys detachment, and he will not
leave Manila until the end of the insur-
reCtion; but the approaching satisfactory
conclusion TO the pending peace negotia-
tons caused the navy department to make
the present arrangements,
/ 1t is estimated by department officials
that Rear Admiral Watson vii reach Ma
Mia the latter part of June and that the
admiral will start immedia tely for home.
1t Is apparent, therefore, that he cannot
reach New York before the middle or lat
ter part of August. Naval officers have NJ
doubt that British officers will make his
stay pleasant at such of their ports as his
flagship may visit, and the Admiral will
probably take his time on the return voy-
age.
Rear Admiral Watson's service during
the late war In command of the bockad-
ing squadron and then in command OF the
eastern squadron. his executive ability
and his constant attention to duty mark
ed him as one of the efficient officers of
that period. Immediately after his de-
tachment from sea duty he asked that he
he assigned to the Asatic station in case
of Admiral Dcwey's relief, and Secretary
Long Is gratiied that he now has it in his
power to grant the request.

Statistics prove that more people are
brought to the grave by diseases OF the
kidneys and bladder than by any other
disease.
For years medical science has been try
ing to discover some remedy that would
positively overcome these dangerous
troubles. But not until recently was the
discovery made. DR.. Kilmer, the eminent
kidney and bladder specialist, after years
of study and research, and after test on
test that never varied in the grand result,
announced the discovery of Swamp-Root,
which has proven itself most wonderful
cure for all diseases of the kidneys and
bladder
The immediate symptoms and first
proofs of weak Kidneys are pain oT dull
ache in the back, rheumatism, dizziness,
headaches, nervousness, heart trouble,
pain in the limbs, bloating. sallow com
plcxion, puffy or dark circles under the
eyes, bladder irritation, suppression of
urine obliged to pass water often day and
night, WORKOUT, tired feeling, lack OF
ambition.

or has a cloudy appearance, it is evidence
that your kidneys and bladder need imtne-

swamp Root has been tested in so many
ways, in hospital work, in private practice,

relief, and has proved so successful in
every case, that a special arrangement has

An index Of Civilization.

There Is no question that diet has
much to do with civilization. If life
was rude and violent in early com
munities, the kind of food eaten and
the way of eating 1t made it even more
so. How could one gorge an OK roasted
whole, carving 1t up with rude weap-
ons, or even like FalStaff, on fat capons
and an intolerable deal of sack. with
out being heavy, earthly, and probably
from our point of view, noisy and Ill
bredf The fine manners of the Eliza
bethan court are problematical; they
certainly would not pass muster now.
Food is both an index of the civliza-
ton attained and factor in the attain
ment. 4 singular instance of both IL
afforded by the rapid growth of man
ners In Russia. Less than two ccntu-
ries ago Peter the Great gnawed meat
like a wild beast and drank brandy
like a savage. To day the elegant meth
od of dining "a la Russo" is admired
over the civilized world.

A Novel Advertise ment.

An original and novel form of adver-
tisement comes from Russia. where a
shopkeeper posted up the following
announcements: 1.-The reason why |
have been able hitherto to sell my
goods so much cheaper than anybody
else is that l am bachelor and do not
need to make profit for the mainten-
ance of wife and children. 1t is now
my duty to inform the public that this
advantage will shortly be withdrawn
from them, as am about to be married.
They will, therefore, do we'll to make
their purchases at once at the old rate.
The result was that there was such a
rush on the shop by anxious customers
that enough extra money was made by
the enterprising proprietor to pay the
expense of his wedding on an unusual
ly lavish scale.

A Colony of Outlaws.

Writers of fiction have frequently
pictured the idea Of an unknown
tropical paradise turned into a general
asylum for outlaws and criminals. In
the BONN isles, not far from Japan,
such refuge has actually been dis
covered. Men OF every nationality who
have made civilization too warm for
themselves having decamped to this

and polka dots on plain tatfeta back
grounds. These are very beautifully
lined also. Crosswise effects are very
prominent, and the ones with striped
borders will find greatest favor with
those desiring reasonably priced sun
shade. The finish at the top was an
elaboration new on paTasols last year,
and this year the idea has been carried
even TO greater lengths. One beauty
has a top finished in imitation of a
ruff1ed collarette tied with bow of
ribbon and it was decidedly fetching.
A cord and tassel OF bow of ribbon
invariably ornament all handles.
