Disappointed In Love, He Asks to
Be Transferred at Once.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 11-An assis-
tant government weather forecaster in
Western city has written to Prof.
Willis Moore, chief of the weather bu-
reau, asking to be transferred from his
pre- sent station to the most remote and
isolated weather station of the United
States.
! His reasons for this request are in
teresting. He says he is devotedly
attached to a young woman of wealth
and social position in the city where he
is now stationed, but that on account
of his small salary and poor prospects
her parents absolutely refuse to con-
slider his offer of marriage with their
daughter, and forbid him to see her.
He says life has become intoiera-
bic for him in his present residence,
and that he desires to be transferred to
another station. No place, he adds,
can be too remote or top disagreeable
He is willing to join the station on the
top OF Pixies Peak, on Tamaulipas, or
IN any of the new colonies.
Prof. Moore has decided to assign
him to Cedar City, little Mormon set
tlement on a plateau in Southwestern
Utah, 5000 feet above sea level, 100
miles from a railroad and almost with
out communication with the outside
world, excepting by tri-Weekly sta ge

GEN. WOODS MISSION.
In Washington to Discuss Cuba's
Financial Affairs.

WASHINGTON, Jan 11-Maj Gen.
Leonard Wood, the military command
ant of Santiago, arrived in Washing
ton last night. He brcakfasted with
Secretary Alger this morning, and then
repaired to the White house for a con-
sultation with the president respecting
Internal conditions in Cuba. The war
department has been delaying final ac-
ton upon the various financial prob
lens connected with the customs SER
vice at Santiago and at other Cuban
ports until Gen. Woods arrival, re-
garding him as well qualified by his
prolonged stay in Santiago province to
afford sound judgment as TO its gov
eminent. The general himself mod
estly declines to discuss these matters
publicly. He expects 10 leave Wash
ington, returning to Cuba next Mon
day. The situation in Santiago, he
said, was thoroughly satisfactory, and
no trouble was to be apprehended there
IN the near future. He took occasion
to declare very earnestly that the sto-
r1es of friction between himself and
Maj. Gen. Brooke, the military COM
mandant of the island, were absolutely
without foundation, adding that their
relations were of the most pleasant
character, and, as far as he knew.
there had been no differences between

would beSet him. In 1850, for instance,
Col. Townley, who, at one time when
the interminable Eastern question was

Even the crossing of the channel had,
earlier in the century, spice of adj
venture, and on one occasion gave an
enterprlS1ng messenger an opportunity
for outwitting rival Mercury Thus,
on an evening in November, at a time
the chancelleries in Europe were agog
with anxiety regarding the situation of
the day, two messengers left a certain
European capitalize one queens

sador to the foreign Office here with in
formation of the first importance con-
corning our relations with one of the
powers, and the other a messenger of
the same power to it's ambassador at
st. James. Both were enjoined to use
all possible dispatch, but the English
man was told that if he could outstrip
his rival by few hours the time gain
ed would be of great advantage to the
state On the road the two messengers
fraternized, but the Englishman was all
the while on the lookout for an oppor-
tunity to squirt ahead. No chance came
until they reached Calais, when they
found that q great storm was raging
and that the packet was unable TO cross
the bar. There seemed nothing to be
done, at least to the foreign courier
but to adjourn to the neighboring ho-
tel for a nights rest and the passing
of the storm, and to the hosiery they
repaired; but no sooner had tie Eng
lishman seen his companion safely re-
tired to his room than he again sailed
forth, and by dint of a tempting offer
of money induced the crew of a lug
ger to hazard the passage to Dover.

situation of affairs in the Philippine
islands is most grave. The rebels. 1t
appears, are concentrating in the
neighborhood of Manila, with the in
tention of attacking that place. Great
preparations are being made for the
defense of the city. The Spanish gem
eral also asserts that the natives Of

NIT the Americans to land, threaten
ing to resist by force if an attempt is
made to do so. The Americans there
fore, according to Gen. Rios, have
abandoned the idea of DISSEMINATING.

to the effect that they are unwilling
to lombard Iloilo, because the Eu-

Gen. Rios also alleges that the rebels
are determined to fight the Americans
before reinforcements arrive from the
United States. In conclusion Gen.

AFTER GRIP

There is no denying the serious
fact that there is a great amount
of sickness from the grip; that
overworked men and women now
suffer more than at any other time
of the year from lassitude, head
aches, slight chills and fever and
other symptoms of imperfect
health; that people fall sick
more readily now than at any
other time of the year; and that
whenever an epidemic does ap-
pear it invariably plays havoc
with those who are run down
and out Of condition.
The utmost caution should be
taken to keep the blood pure and
the nervous system in healthy
tone.
There is no more excuse for
the prevalent symptoms of stag
nant, impure blood in the body
than there is for the barbarism
of filthy streets in city.
The relaxed and sluggish ac-
ton of the excretory organs
loads the body with waste ma
terial that poisons it and brings
on headaches, rheumatic pains,
sleepless nights and proftless
days, due solely to the circula-
ton in the blood, or deposit in
the tissues, of these waste mat
tiers which Paine's celery COM
pound alone will quickly drive
out.
When the arms, hips or back
feel the twinges of acute rheum-
atism it is high time to relieve
the kidneys and bladder from
the strain that so often brings
on Bright's disease, gravel,
dropsy and complications of dis
eases with other organs whose
health depends upon the purity
of the blood. Prompt use of
Paine's celery compound will
save the weakened parts from
yielding to disease.
In its peculiar ability to invig-
crate the body, to make new
blood and to regulate the nerves,
lies the great value Of Paine's
celery compound in all wasting
diseases and disorders of the
kidneys, liver and stomach.
Paine's celery compound res
cues shaky, enfeebled nerves
from prostration and removes
that feeling of utter exhaustion
that causes so much dependency
among so many worried men
and women.
It makes flesh, blood and
strong nerves.
Paine's celery com pound is not
a patent medicine! 1t is not the
discovery of some quack doctor
of whom his profession never
heard; it is not concoction put
