A Forerunner of the Most
Fatal Disease.

Though its offensive features
are sometimes almost unbeamble
few people are aware Of the danger
OF which Catarrh is the forerun.
ner. Catarrh invariably leads to
Consumption. Growing worse and
worse each winter, those who RELY
upon the usual treatment of
sprays, washes and inhaling mix
lures find that it is imnossible to
check the disease with these local
applications which only reach the
surface. The offensive discharge
increases all the while, causing u
feeling of personal defilement, and
gets deeper and deeper until it is
only question OF n short time
until the lungs are affected.
The Importance of the proper
treatment can therefore be readily
appreciated. But no good what
ever can be expected from local
applications, as such treatment
never did cure Catarrh, and never
will.

NO TROUBLE IN SAMOA


SeeFetUFy OF the Csmmissson Denies
Stories to That Eject.
Minneapolis. Mimi, Aug. 1s.-Edwin W.
Morgan, secretary OF the Samoon interna-
tional commission VINO Is In the city,
said today: There are two unfounded
reports regarding Samoan affairs, which
have never been adequately contradIcted.
The first IS that there has been fighting
in Somoa since the commission left. This
report know to be without foundation,
because only one dispatch has been re-
ceived from the island since we left, and
1t did not refer Ia the alleged fighting.
The report came from a passenger on a
steamer between Australia and Victoria,
B. c. who professed to have got It from
the officers OF the German warship Fake
The Falke LETT Samoa about six weeks
before the commission did
The other report I refer TO is that
there have been serious differences be-
tween the membrs Of tn commission. and
that Baron Won Sternberg had made eff
forts to arrange an understanding with
Mr.. Trip to the disadvantage Of the
British commissioner. Nothing Of the
sort was attempted. Both Judge Trip
and the baron are too honorable and too
experienced in diplomacy to contemplate
such thing. The whole commission was
animated by a desire to bring about the
most satisfactory solution OF the Samoan
trouble without references to the preju-
dices Of the various nations Interested.
There was no thought OF two of the COM
nnissioners combining against the other.
This ridiculous story had its origin in the
fact that the British commissioner did
not return on the Badger with his coll
leagues. Mr.. Eliot went to New Zealand
to visit relative. and will reach the
United States by the next steamer from
there"

ton OF the world. captain Dreyfus was
ROUNDED himself with some suspicious cir
cumstances," said Mr.. Crane today.
Jealousy on the part Of some of his
brother officers, his indulgence in wine
and the element that goes side by side
with It, had much to do in placing him in
the predicament. It is generally believed
by his family that present court martial
will convict him. After this It Is believed
he will be pardoned by President Loubet.
This course is necessary for the welfare
of France and the present tribunal. In
fact, 1t was expected that the court Of
cessation would order a revision with d.
rections for an acquittal. Another trial
by court martial was hardly expected. The
motive for the crime OF his conviction,
aside from the prejudices against him as a
Jew, was the fact that Colonel Henry and
other accusers were aroused by the at
tentions of Dreyfus in another direction.
They resolved TO prove him traitor and
resort to desperate means to sustain them
selves, as the forgery Of the bordereau
has shown. OF his innocence there is no
doubt but the strange quality called the
honor of the army must be sustained"
