every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal

The Navy Department Seems to Be in
Ignorance of Them.
Washington, Sept. 30.-The North At
lantic squadron will sail from New
York next Wednesday for Hampton
Roads, arriving there next day. Ad-
miral Sampson will haul down his flag
on the New York and Admiral Far
quhar will assume the command of the
squadron on the 14th of October The
ships will stay in the Roads until that
date and probably few days later, in
order to allow the new commander-in-
chief time to draw up his plans for the
winter maneuvers. Some Of the ships
require more or less extensive repairs
and this will delay the execution of
any large programme until we'll along
toward spring.
The movements of the Olympia in the
immediate future will depend upon the
disposition of Admiral Dewey, it is said
at the navy department. The officials
here do not know yet whether the ad-
miral will return to the ship immedi-
ately after the conclusion of the Wash
ington ceremonies or whether. as is ex-
pected by his friends, he will elect to
remain in Washington for a few days.
His personal belongings are aboard the
Olympia and he will be afforded the op-
portunty to remove them at his leisure
before being detached. This ship must
await the return of a large portion of
her crew, who are coming to Washing
ton to participate in the presentation
ceremonies, SO she cannot leave New
York before next Tuesday or Wednes-
day. If Admiral Dewey decides to ac-
cept the invitation which was extended
to him through Secretary Long and
Assistant Secretary Allen to visit Bos-
ton on Oct. 10, he will probably make
the trip there on the Olympia, but that
point will not be decided until he shall
have had a conference with Secretary
Long.

Dewey Was Tired.

New York, Sept. 30.-Admiral Dewey
was very tired at the end of the parade.
He was driven at once to the residence
of Manager Boldt of the Waldorf AS
toria, escorted by Squadron A and ac-
companied by Mayor Van Wyck.
Admiral Dewey did not attend the
Smoker" He was feeling too fatigued
to leave his apartments and retired at
1915.
AT o'clock tomorrow the admiral
will receive the Chicago delegation and
will then see the members of his family.
The Anaconda standard., 1899-10-01

The cup stands 13 inches high, has a
capacity of four and half quarts and
cost $1,000.
After the formal ceremonies, Dewey
went about shaking hands with his
friends.
Come here, all you captains" ne
said, addressing the naval captains
audience Captain Lamberton of the
Olympia he cried, Captain Wilde of
the Boston, Captain Coghlan Of the
Raleigh, Captain Dyer of the Balti-
more, Captain Wood of the Petrol. Cap
tain Walker of the Concord" When
the captains had all assembled he
waved his hands toward them and
said:
The Men Who Did 1t.
These are the men who did 1t. These
are the men who should be thanked,
Without them could do nothing"
General Miles arrived just as the
party left the platform for the car
riages. Rear Admiral Sampson did not
arrive in time to witness the presenta-
tion of the cup.
After the ceremony the party entered
carriages and were driven to the War
rem street pier, where they boarded the
steamer Sandy Hook and were taken to
Claremont. The trip to the city dock
was uneventful, except the large crowd
was constantly cheering the occupants
of the carriages. Dewey acknowledged
the applause by raising his hat.
The trip UP the Hudson on board the
Sandy Hook was without hitch and
the boat arrived at the foot of Nine
teenth street at 1890. Dewey was in
fine spirits, although he complained of
slight cold and said he would wear his
shoulder cape during the parade. Cen
eral Miles was one Of the first to greet
him on the boat.
To General Miles the admiral said:
miles. it's regular soldier weather,
isn't it?''
Not exactly" replied Miles. 'I'd call
it Dewey weather"
The admiral, Mayor Van Wyck and
Senator-elect Depew partook of break
fast together in the main salon of the
Sandy Hook. The admiral was quite
abstemious. drinking only little bouil-
Ion and declining cigar.
Speaking of the honors which had
been showered upon him Dewey said:
ut is grand when the great city of
New York stops work for two days to
do honor to one man."
The voyage up the river was one con-
tinuous ovation, every style of craft
with whistle or other noise-making
power availing itself of the opportunity
to salute the admiral

Thinks Proof Regarding EmbaImed
Beef Is Conclusive.

done regarding the offer of Col a. A.
Pope of Boston to give 81, 900 for proof
that chemicals were used to "embalTn''
beef furnished the United States SOL
diers in the war with Spain. Il have
told Col. Pope" was Gen. Miles reply,
that I appreciate his patriotism and
had great respect for the public spirit
which he displayed, but that I do not
think it necessary to spend any such
sum to prove such a patent fact that
the beef was embalmed- The evidence
of nearly one hundred officers proves it.
The reports to me esta blish it beyond
a doubt. My report was based solely
upon personal observation and state
ments to me by officers in whom have
every confidence. I think the evidence
and testimony 1 produced is sufficient
to establish the truth of everything 1
said regarding the beef"

BERNHARDT'S BIG PLANS
Will Visit England and United States
Prior to the Paris EXPOSITION.

London, Feb In Sarah Bernhardt's
case time may wither but age certainly
fails to destroy. She is making plans
for the next two years, including her
tour of America, which would make an
actress of half her years vince.
In July next she comes to London
After appearing here she will take
brief rest at Belle Isle and then leave
for America, arriving there for the open
ing of the regular fall season In De-
cember next she hopes to be back in her
special play house in Paris preparing
for the Worlds exposition of next year.
Interest in her trip to London, as well
as to America premises to center chief
4y in her production of Hamlet about
which Mr.. Grau has already spoken.
Nine Rernhardt's Hamlet" is by
MOrand and Schwab, and is taken al
most word for word from Shakespeare.
Another interesting play in her roper
tore will be La Samaritaine," the new
Offering from the pen OF NJ Rostand,
the author of ''CyranO de Bergerac.'
Bernhardt is now busy with rehearsals
at her new play house, the Theater des
Nations This house, by the way, is to
bear the name of the great actress.
During the Paris exposition it will be
known as the Theater Sarah Bernhard.
There will be nightly performances with
matinees on Thursdays and Saturdays.
She is well pleased with the place, which
will enable her to produce big spectacu-
lar plays like Theodore without being
cramped for stage room.

What has always struck me is the. per-
Sonal character of NJ SardOu'S methods.
He gives his attention in the first place
to the minor roles As the work advances
he proceeds on larger more general lines,
until 1t seems as if the stage is too small
and one pines for more space in which to
allow the action OF the piece to develop

masterful when conducting rehearsals- I

conciliatory and ever ready to adopt the
suggestions of others when they deserve
TO be taken into consideration He re-
CARDS even the stage carpenters, the scene
shlfterS and the hremen as part OF the
hints from their impressions. In this re-
spect he adheres to the methods of Alex
andre Dumas Like Dumas, too, he is
not OveT-sensitive to the fate of his lines.
and never hesitateS to cut his text when
necessary. Nothing escapes his notice.
He tries the chairs, sees that the doors
open and shut readily. chooses the dress
materials and upholstery, studies the per-
spective from the auditorium, and mounts
to the upper galleries. to assure
himself that the public in the cheap seats
can see and hear everything. He lives
