No trouble is more common or more
misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia
People having it think their nerves are
to blame, and are surprised that they
are not cured by nerve medicines. The
real seat of the mischief is lost sight
OF. The stomach is the organ to be
looked after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whatever in the stomach, nor
perhaps any of the usual symptoms of
stomach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia
shows itself not in the stomach so
much as in nearly every organ. In
some cases the, heart palpitates and is
Irregular; in others the kidneys are af-
fected; in others the bowels are consti-
pated, with headaches; still others are

1t is safe to say that Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets will cure any stomach
weakness or disease except cancer of
the stomach. They cure sour stomach,
gas, loss of flesh and appetite, sleep

patton and headache.

FOR CHURCH EXEMPTION.



A goodly gathering of ministers were
before the Senate Judiciary Committee
yesterday to urge favorable recon-
mendation of Senator Wolfe's pro-
posed Constitutional amendment, ex-
empting churches and chapels and the
real property on which they are stu
ated, from taxation.
Among the c1ergymen present were
Archbishop Riordan of San Francisco;
e. S. Chapman, D. D., of Oakland,
Congregationalist; F. D. Bovard, D. D.,
of Santa Rosa, Methodist: w. S. Mat
thews, D. D., of San Francisco, editor
of the Christian Advocate; E. Nc
Clish. d. D., of San Francisco; B. W.
Perry Phi. D., Assembly Chaplain,
Presbyterian, and A. B. Banks of this
city, Baptist.
The proposed amendment adds a new
section to Article XIII. of the Consti-
tuition. to read ais follows:
Section ~. All buildings used ex-
clusively as churches and chapels, and
the real property on which they are
situated, shall be exempt from taxa
ticn'
1t was agreed. after considerable dis
cussion, that members should offer
amendments If they so desired, and
after all were in, that the clergymen
present should be accorded the usual
privilege Of addressing the committee.
Senator Cutter, who opposed the
amendment, had substitute for the
whole, and offered it. as follows:
All buildings used exclusively for
religious purposes. and all ground actu-
ally covered by them, shall be exempt
from taxation when the value of the
same does not exceed $4,000
Wolfe suggested that such substi-
tute would merely offer to the churches
q little sop, would effectually kill the
intention OF the amendment
Simpson said the members Of the
committee were prepared to pass upon

mere matter of form. But he was never
in actual command of the army.
The result of Grants orders has been
the disgraceful and scandalous condi-
tions, increasing in disgrace and acrl-
mony from year to year; SO that when
the war with Spain began our regular
army and our volunteer army did not
pass to the command of the senior ma
jor general of the army, but all of them
were placed at the mercy of a civilian
secretary of war, and staff officers who
were independent of the general under
whose command they should have
served.
This brief statement contains the ker-
mel of the causes of all the needless suf-
ferings and deaths to which our SOL
diers were subjected. 1t makes no diff
ference who may be the secretary of
war, whether his name is Alger, Nc
Creary, Lincoln, Endicott, Proctor or
Jones; 1t Is improper that civilian sec
rotary of war should be allowed by law
to supervise duties of which he must
necessarily be ignorant, while the gem
eral nominally in command is deprived
| OF actual command, so that there can
be no conference of military plans and
purposes. Gen. Grant, who divorced the
army from the command of the secre-
tary of war, afterwards restored the
conditions which had embarrassed the
army commanders for many years,
Consequently, with all respect to the
memory of that great soldier, it must
truthfully be said that it is by his or
der that the army is so disorganized.
This condition of affairs will continue
under all generals until the congress
shall take action. and enact a law which
will make 1t impossible for anybody TO
come between the commanding general
and his troops.
There are ten bureau chiefs attached
to the Office Of the secretary of war, all
OF them brigadier generals, and all of
them independent of the commanding
general, under whose direct orders
they should be required to serve, in
stead OF being classified as chiefs of
bureaus attached 10 the secretary OF
war. The civilian branch Of the waT
department Is big enough for civil
Ian secretary to handle and direct,
without taking upon himself the direc.

NARROWING THE ATLANTIC.
German Ocean Greyhound, the
Deutschland, to CrOsB In
Five Daya.

The Germans claim that the steam
ship Deutschland, which the Vulcan
Shipbuilding company is constructing
for the Hamburg-American line, will
exceed all other vessels, both In size and
speed.
The owners object is to accomplish
the distance between the hemispheres
in five days, and to attain this engines of
about $4,000 indicated horse power will
have to be fitted into the vessel. The
cost of building the steamer is esti-
mated at close to 100000.
The Deutschland will carry 800 first
class and 600 second-class passengers,
and crew OF 420 officers and men.
She will probably make her first trip
from Hamburg to New York in the
course of next year.

uon of the military men, particularly
In time of war. The ten brigadier gen
erals, known as bureau chiefs are as
follows:
The adjutant genenal, who IL the
military clerk TO the secretary Of war,
through whom all orders are issued to
the army. He is the chief staff officer,
but can issue no orders on his own re-
sponsibllity.
The judge advocate general is the
legal authority of the war department,
and his duties are seldom increased In
time of war, although every other staff
officer, including the adjutant general,
have their duties multiplied.
The inspector general is charged
with inspections of the troops, of their
camps, of their food supplies, their
medical supplies and their surgical at
tendance. He inspects their clothing,
their arms, their ammunition, and
everything connected with their hy-
gienic surroundings.
1t is the duty of the quartcrmaster
general to provide quarters for all
armies, furnish them with clothing and

supplies, furnish transportation, horses
for cavalry and artillery, and all duties
kindred thereto.
The commissary general is charged
with the duty of providing food for the
army, no matter how numerous may be
the soldiers. 1t is expected that the
commissary general will purchase and
send TO the troops only the best army
rations obtainable; and that he will
keep the supplies going forward ms
rapidly as the quartermaster general
can handle them.
The surgeon general is expected to
furnish medical supplies, hospita sur
geons, hospital stewards, hospital
nurses, and all appliances for the COM
fort and well being of the soldiers,
whether in camp or field, and partic-
ularly when the soldiers are cam
paigning and engaging in battle.
The paymaster generals duties are
implied in the name of the Office. The
paymaster general is responsible for
the payment of the soldiers, and upon
him deyolyes great responsibility, par
ticularly in time of war.
The chief of engineers has charge of
the Notifications, river and harbor i'm
provements, bridge buildings hand
ling pontoons for army use in cross,
ing streams, and in debarking and en-
barking troops,
The chief of ordnance ischarged with
supplying the army with the latest i'm
proved cannons, rifles and other fire
arms, and with the ammunition to
make them available for offense and
defense.
The chief signal officer has charge of
the military telegraph and signal serv-
ice. During the late war with Spain
this branch of the army rendered cX-
ceptionally valuable service In laying
telegraph and telephone lines, and in
destroying submarine cables which
were in use by the enemy.
These staff officers cost the country
great deal of money, whether in time
of peace or in time of war. The pay
roll, recapitulated, follows:

Louhet Resembles Grant.

"Loubet reminds one OF Gen.
Grant" writes Theodore Stanton.
'He even resembles Grant somewhat
physically, with his medium height,
thick set, large face and head, which,
set on short neck, moves slowly and
almost heavily. In intellect and tenn
permanent the two men also are much
alike. Loubet is taciturn, simple OF
dress, speech and manner. He has great
common sense, but no brilliancy. and
has but few warm friends. He dislikes
show and will restore to the Elysee pal
ace the quiet simplicity of the days of
NJ Grew"

Especial WashIngton Letter.l

TTIIE army reorganizntiop bill, of
which SO much has been said
~ In the newspapers, Is measure
which has not been nnalyzed so
THAT every body can understand It.
That the army of this republic Is in
disorganized condition must be mani
fest to all of the people; and 1t is not
putting it too strong to say that the
condition of our army is n disgrace to
this nation before the peoples of the
civilized world
This condition, which has brought
about all of the war department scan
dals, results from the everlasting con-
flict between the secretary of war and
the general commanding the army
Every general commanding the army
has found himself handicapped and his
power of command taken from him by
the civilian secretary of war, no mat
ter whether the secretary of war knows
anything about military affairs or
not.
When Grant was made lieutenant
general he SO we'll understood how our
armies had been handicapped by orders
from Washington that, in the presence
of the cabinet, he accepted the com
mission from President Lincoln, say
ing that he would not retain that com
mission unless it carried with it the
full command of the army. Grant was
so great and powerful at that time that
President Lincoln gave him the COM
mand; and from that moment all of
the federal armies moved under one
impulse and direction.
When Sherman became general in
command, after Grant became presi-
dent, he assumed command, just as
Grant had done, and issued orders for
the appointment of his staff officers.
Sherman expected TO have full COM
mand, of course. But Gen. Rawlins wns
secretary of war, and he Influenced his
friend, President Grant, TO take the
staff officers from the command of the
general, and place them under the com
mand of the secretary of war. Presi-
dent Grant did so. He would not have
taken that stand for anybody on earth
except Rawlins, who had been his warm
est friend and almost his guardian angel
In his days of trouble and peril.
When President Grant took that
stand Gen. Sherman left Washington
aud took up his abode in st. Louis, be-
cause he did not want to be a mere fig
urehead in the war department at the
national capital. Years went by, and
Sherman made his home in ST. Louis,
occasionally visiting Washington as a
