A man who neglects his health Is sailing
his craft of life in dangerous seas. He
cannot too soon awaken to the fact that he
is inperiling his most precious endow-
ment. All the wealth in the world, all the
power IN the world, all the pleasure In the
world, all the love and poetry and music
and nobility and beauty are but dust in the
mouth of the man who has lost his health.
Keeping healthy means looking after the
disorders that ninety-nine men in hum
dred neglect. You cannot get the average,
everyday man to believe that indigestion
or biliousness, or costiveness or headache
or loss of sleep or appetite, or shakiness in
the morning and dullness through the day
amount to much anyway. He will pooh,
pooh" at you, until some morning he
wakes up and finds himself sick abed.
Then he will send for doctor and find out
to his surprise that all these disorders have
been but the danger signals of big malady
that has robbed him of his health possibly
forever. II may be consumption or nerv-
Gus prostration or malaria or rheumatism
or some blood or skin disease. II matters
not they all have their inception in the
same neglected disorders. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery makes the ap-
petite keen, the digestion perfect, the liver
active, the blood pure, the nerves steady
and gives sound and refreshing sleep. II
is the great blood maker and flesh-builder.
1t cures oS per cent. of all cases of con-
sumption. In fact bronchial, throat and
lung affections generally yield to it. Med

Judye Donounces a Verdict.

Evansville, Ind, Jan. 24.-In the cir
cult court here yesterday Judge Baker,
on motion OF United States District At
torney Wishard. nollied the case against
Cashier -Rosenkranz, Of the wrecked
First National bank. of Mount Vernon.
Ind. The district attorney declared
his belief that Rosenkranz was not
guilty. but that Albert Wade, who was
found not guilty by jury on Satur-
day last, was the one who wrecked the
bank. Judge Baker concurred in this
and made the sensational statement
that the guilt OF Wade was proved by
his own admissions on the stand and
that the jury was influenced by the
wealth and influence behind the man.
Judge Baker declared that such YER
diets as that1in the Wade case is what
makes. mob law possible.

Friends of the Treaty Fear Defeat and
an Extra Session.
Washington. Jan. 24-Although the
motion for an executive session was
made by the chairman of the commit
tee on foreign relations. the peace
treaty was not taken I'D in the SEN
ate yesterday. The status of the
treaty as outlined by member OF the
committee who favors ratification Is:
The opponents claim TO have So or 81
sure votes against the treaty. That
would defeat it, which would necessitate
an extra session. If there is to be an
extra session the friends of the treaty
say they may as we'll take it over un-
rejected by this session. They do not
propose to bring it to Ii vote unless they
are sure of ratification. An extra ses-
sion. they say, will mean an extra ses-
sion of the whole congress unless con-
ditional appropriation is made to pay
Spain the $2O.OOO,0O0, or unless some
arrangement is made with Spain TO ex-
tend the time of payment three months.
1t is believed that-in view of the posi-
bilities of an extra session unless the
treaty is ratified at this session the OPP
ponents will yield before adjournment,
as a very general desire is expressed to
avoid an extra session.

THAT "EMBALMED BEEF"

Captain warburton, Under Oath, De-
clares 1t Had to Be Buried.
Washington, Jan. 24.--The board OF
survey appointed by Secretary Alger to
pass upon the question of the proper
condemnation of a large quantity OF
beef destined for the troops in Porto
Rico has received from Captain Bar
clay H. Warburton, of the Pennsylya-
mia volunteer battalion of artillery,
sworn statement of the condition OF re-
frigerated beef on board the transport
Manitoba. In the course of this state
ment Captain Warburton says: 1.-The
meat was so bad that 1t was impos~
sible to swallow it. In my opinion the
meat was not good. nor was it fit for
issue. I had no idea that this meat had
been subjected to any chemical process.
but believed the beef to have decom-
posed on account of the lack OF proper
refrigeratinG facilities. All beef issued
to my battalion was bad. and had to be
buried Immediately upon delivery at
our camp, which was about two miles
beyond Ponce Captain Warburton
gives the names of some witnesses
whose testimony may be Of value.

ed finding on Breton Island a part OF
the stern of the naptha launch Paul
Jones' also yawl boat with DO"
smashed and other small articles from
the launch. The condition of the
wreckage tends to show that the yacht
blew up. The Pansy met the tug Maud,

latter visited the wreckage and ldenti-
fed it as part of the Paul Jones. No
bodies were found.
The launch had the following pleas

men. whose names are unknown.
News confirming her loss has been
brought by oyster fishermen, who have
known of it for more than week. The
launch exploded. they say, on or about
Jan. 6, near Bird Island, and every
thing goes to show that all on board
were killed at once or drowned soon

MODEST CLAIM:
Wants the Money to Pay Off the

He Has Been Receiving the Adulations

March TO Santa Clara.

March 70 Santa (lafa.
Remedies. Cuba, Jan. 24.-Generni
Maxine Gomez. commander-in-chief
of the Cuban army. has Withdrawn to
this part of the island. AS previously
cabled. he was not invited to be pres
ent at the evacuation ceremonies at
Havana on Jan. l. and he is now here
nursing his feelings Of alleged injury
sustained at the hands of our govern
ment. AS salve to these injured feel
ings of neglect he has been receiving
the adulations of the Cuban populace
of the various towns through which he
has passed and the ovations of this
character which were rendered to him
here and in Cabarian have lately
brought these towns into the public
eye
General Gomez remains at the head
Of the Cuban army. He considers this
to be his post until the army Is paid
off. The amount needed for this pur-
pose, according to the Cubans, is $780,
600 900, which would give nearly $1,000
gold to each soldier. Just what security
can be offered for this loan is not clear.
The fact that every seaport or the
island has its American customs col
lector is significant that this source Of
revenue is not in Cuban hands. 1t Is
estimated by those who should know
that the number of men in the Cuban
army whose service to their country
are still unpaid will not fall much
short of $4,000. The United States is
to be asked to advance this large
amount 10 pay these men. The fact.
however, that the Americans Insist up
on knowing how this money is to be
spent would seem to be considered as
a piece of unnecessary curiosity upon
our part.
General Gomez will soon proceed to
Santa Clara. This city is the capital
of the province, and was such hot
bed of Spanish sympathizers during the
war that the Cubans today. in their
hour of victory, ignore the towns old
name and have rechrlstened it Villa
Clara. Here he will follow the same
course as adopted in Remedies and
CalbarIen. namely, the uniting OF
Spanish and Cuban interests for the
immediate establishment of the Gu
ban republic and the furtherance and
growth of the new united party OF
Cuban independence.
