The Plan and Scope Committee. who
have charge Of the arrangements for the
Dewey celebration in New York have just
awakened To the fact that they have en-
tirely overlooked the Admirars son in
their preparations for the reception Of the
nations hero. This young man, by the
way, has persistenty declined to ride to
glory" on his fathers reputation, and
keeps in the background. He Is nothing
like so self assertive as the thousands OF
cousins" OF our war celebrities, and
whenever efforts have been made 10
glorify him he has firmly checked them.
Young Dewey is, of course, greatly
pleased with the plans for showering
honors on his distinguished sire, but ii is
pretty evident that he's not gorg TO
crowd himself TO the front. The ADMIRAL S
son is lin trade" az our English friends
would express it, and keeps bachelors
apartments at No. A west Fifty-seyenth
street, New York. That ne is man Of
good taste and fine sensibilities no one
can doubt. In the better sense of the
term. he is truly the "son of his father"
and his example is almost as worthy Of
imitation as that of the Admiral himself.

Charles Siegert. an employee Of a circus
which visited Washington a day or so
ago has found TO his sorrow That ia
miarity breeds contempt, especially when
the object OF the familiarity is Royal
Bengal tiger. In this case the unfortunate
man, who had nothing TO do with the
Gagged animals but attended the show
ponies, acquired the very bad habit Of
sleeping on top the tigers cage. For many
nights he found peace and comfort on this
strange couch, but he tried it once too
often. Tuesday morning. as he moved
about i'm his sumber, one of MS legs came
within reach Of the man-eater, and the
fierce prisoner forthwith grabbed the limb
and frightfully lacerated it. A great deal
Of persuasion in the way Of clubs. torches,
and sticks was required to make me tiger
relax his hold. but he finally did 50. Sic
CERT is now a corpse. and the tiger Is
wondering what all the sensation was
about.

Who's to Blame?

News from Madrid says that Gen
MARTINEZ Campos has insisted upon
the appointment of a commission
to investigate the conduct Of the
war and to place the responsibility.
Carelessness and neglect all through
the war gave rise to the most disas-
trous conditions, but no more dan
gerous than comes from neglect of
the health. 1t is every ones duty
to guard his health. 1t is easier to
keep it than regain it. Hostetter's S
Stomach Bitters taken honestly will
not only create health, but will pre-
serve it. 1t is the medicine which
for fifty years has made weak stom-
achs strong, and has overcome that
terrible dragon, dyspepsia, and all
the evils such as constipation, bill
iousness, kidneys and liver troubles,
malaria and fever and ague, which
follow in its train.

Laniuinais, then of the council OF
Napoleon. The young painter was
shabbily attired, and his reception

proofs of talent, good sense and
ability, that, on Girard's rising to
take leave, he rose, too, and ac,

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYEUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIe SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles Of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. II
is the one perfect strengthening laXa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
maneutly. It's perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make 1t the ideal
laxative.
In the process Of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities Of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIe SYRUP
Co. only. In order TO get its beneficial
effects and TO avoid limitations, please
