sand Wish to Surrender-COnstant
Firing FrOW Philippine Line

Manila, February 27.-Except for an
occasional volley and some individual
firing by the rebels from the jungle
near Caloacan, along the river and in
the vicinity of San Pedro Macati, all
was quiet along the entire line last
night. The enemy's sha~rpshooters at
Caloacan continue to annoy the SOL
diers in the day time, but the Ameii-
cans no longer pay much attention to
them, reserving their fire until the
rebels appear in the open in sufficient
force to justify a volley or an occa-
'sional shell.
During the night the men are so &C
customed to the enemy's salutes that
a majority of them remain undisturb-
ed, secured by the outposts and SEN
tries.
In Manila absolute quiet prevails; the
streets are deserted and the only
sounds to be heard after Z o'clock in
the evening are the tramp of the pa
trolls and the occasional clatter Of the
hoofs of an officers horse.
The insurance companies, after a

Two Spanish commissioners, Seniors

confer with Aguinaldo with reference
to h Spanish prisoners at Malolos,
returned through our lines this morn
ing, near Caloacan, with sealed dis
patches for the Spaniards. The COM
missioners said that Aguinaldo and
Sandiko were both at Malolos and in
clined to pacific overtures. While the
Philippines are not yet prepared to
surrender the Spanish prisoners, they
will gladly release two Americans whC
have been held for six weeks, on the
payment of $50, the value Of food and
clothing furnished them.
Shortly afterward the rebels sent out
a flag of truce, borne by Command.

s,,,,. ar lew. m RUSSIA.

A decision recently rendered by the
imperial senate in st. Petersburg in
reference to the petition of Russian
Jew illustrates the extent to which
Jews come under the ban of legislative
control. 1t seems that Jew In Rus
STA has not the right to name his own
child as he pleases, but must give MS
offspring such name as the police reg
ulations made and provided ordain.
He is restricted to biblical names;
moreover, he must not give his child
a modernized form of the biblical
names from which he is allowed to
choose. Thus he may bestow on his
son such names as Abraham, Jacob or
Samuel, but they must be in the He
braic or Yiddish form OF Avrohom,
Yauker and Shemuel. The use of a
modernized name is prohibited and sub
iects the Jew using it to a severe pen
atty. The recent action by the senate
was brought about by South Russian
Jew, who recently ventured to call his
son Samuel instead of Shemuel. The
police declined to permit this, and an
appeal was made to the imperial SEN
ate. This august body decided that
Shemuel is only variant of Samuel,
and that therefore the regulations ap-
plicable to the naming of Jewish chill
dren have not been violated. But II
was pointed out that the decision
simply applied to the peculiar case OF
Samuel. The Jew who attempted to
style son of his Abraham instead OF
Avrohom will still have to reckon with
the police, and bring his case before
the senate of the empire if he is de
termined to challenge the action oil
the local authorities. A Paris paper
in commenting on the case adds will
rather doubtful significance, THAI
such puerilities should engage the at,
tention of the highest legislative ant
consultive body in the Russian EN-
pire is q striking indication OF thu

NO WOMAN Is EXEMPT.

Regularity is a matter of Importance
in every woman's life. Much pain is,
however, endured in the belief that it
is necessary and not alarming, when
in truth it Is all wrong and indicates
arrangement that may cause serious
trouble.
Excessive monthly pain itself will
unsettle the nerves and make women
old before their time.
The foundation of woman's health is
a perfectly normal and regular per-
Torrance of natures function. The
statement we print from Miss GER
TRUDE SKIES, of Eldred, Pa, is echoed
in every city, town and hamlet in this
country. Read what she says:
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I feel like a
new person since following your ad-
vice, and think it is my duty to let the
public know the good your remedies
have done me. My troubles were pain
full menstruation and leucorrhea. l
was nervous and had spells of being
confused. Before using your remedies
1 never had any faith in patent medi-
cines. / now wish to say that / never
had anything do me so much good for
painful menstruation as Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound; also would
say that your Sanative Wash has cured
me of leucorrhea. I hope these few
words may help suffering women"
The present Mrs. Pinkham's expert
ence in treating female ills is unparal-
leled, for years she worked side by
side with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, and
for sometime past has had sole charge
of the correspondence department of
her great business, treating by letter
as many as hundred thousand ailing
women during a single year.
All suffering women are invited to
write freely to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn,
Mass, for advice about their health.

A French statistician states that the
total number of men permanently I'M.
der arms is 1880, 900. If universal
war broke out there would be 44,2oo,
600 men ready to take up arms at
once. Placed in one line, the soldiers
of the world could cover the equator
right around the earth. To pass along
the whole line one would need to ride
in an express train at sixty miles an

received orders to exterminate the

have to kill thirty three persons apiece.
