The rebels have been concentrating
south of the Pasig river, in front of
Brigadier-General Ovenshine's lines, on
the right, all day long. The country in
the vicinity is particularly thick jungle,
extending for miles. Scouts report that
the rebels are apparently coming from
Laguana and Cavite provinces. The
Americans are strongly entrenched from
the beach to the Pasig.

Faure's Petty Annovances.

LONDON Feb. TS.-There is little doubt
that the Dreyfus crisis and the scurril-
GUS attacks of portion of the Partisan
papers are largely blamable for President
Faure's sad end. The "gutter papers,

incidents rejecting upon members of
Faure's family, though not affecting the

it is claimed, che wants to force the city
of Paris to purchase at her own price in
order to prolong the Rue Mogdar. The
city officials, it further appeared, found
the price exhorbitant and determined,
rather than pay the sum demanded, to
make bend IN the street, after offering
her larger and more valuable house a
few doors off, which she refused. The
matter was taken before the council of
state, which decided against the propo-
sition to make a bend in the street.

the decision as ''jobbery, :" implying that

CATARRH OF
THE STOMACH
A Pleasant, Simple: but Safe and Eff
fecual Cure for 1t.

Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are full or bloat-
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
sometimes with sour and watery risings,
formation of gases, causing pressure
on the heart and lungs and difficult
breathing; headaches, tickle appetite,
nervousness and a general played out
languid feeling.
There is often foul taste in the mouth
coated tongue and if the interior of the
stomach could be seen it would show a
Shiny, infamed condition.
The cure of this common and obsti-
nate trouble is found IN a treatment
which causes the food to be readily, thor
oughly digested before it can to ferment
and irritate the delicate mucus surfaces
of the stomach. To secure a prompt and
healthy digestion is the one necessary
thing to do, and when normal digestion
is secured the catarrhal condition will
have disappeared.
According to DIR. Harlanson the safest
and best treatment is to use after each
meal tablet, composed of Diatase. .Asep-
tic Pepsin, little Nux, Golden Seal
and fruit acids. These tablets can now
be found at all drugstores under the
name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and
not being patent medicine can be used
with perfect safety and assurance that
healthy appetite and thorough digestion
will certainly follow their regular use af-
ter meals.
Mr.. N. ]. Booher, of 27l0 Dearborn
street, Chicago, ILL.,, writes: ''Catarrh
is local condition resulting rom a
neglected cold in the head, whereby the
| lining mem mbranes of the nose become
infamed and the poisonous discharge
therefrom passing backward into the
throat reaches the stomach, thus pro-
ducing catarrh of the stomach. Medical
authorities prescribed for me for three
years for catarrh of the stomach without
cure, but today L am the happiest Of
men after using only one box of Stuart't
Dyspepsia Tablets. 1 cannot find ap-
propriate words to express my good feel
| ing. have found flesh, appetite and
sound rest from their use."

In a general way the president, before
the battle of Manila, had directed the
war department to make preparations
work was to begin with those in camps
in this country. Each of these regiments
Is costing about $4,000 day for pay and
support. The president said he wanted
to lessen the drain of war expenses on
the treasury, and he felt that the vol
unteers could now be spared. Fifteen
regiments were to be disbanded just as
fast as the mastering out routine could
be performed. There has been no
change in the orders since the Manila
affair. It is understood that the dis
bandment of the regiments still in the
Southern camps will proceed rapidly.
After that will come the return of vol
nnteers from Cuba. Inquiries have al
ready been sent to commanders in Cuba
to obtain opinions as to the mum bers
that can be spared. 1t is the intention,
unless the situation should seem to de-
mand the continuance there of all the
troops, TO bring to this country a divis-
ion of the Seventh corps in March.
Two of the immune regiments in San
tiago Province will be brought back in
few weeks. By the 1st of May the gar
rison force is to be reduced to a mini
mum. The appearance of yellow fever
in New York regiment in the interior
of the island is having the effect to
strengthen the purpose to reduce the
garrisoning army as rapidly as iC can be
done safely.

VOLUNTEERS HAVE
TO REMAIN
The Recent Trouble NeCessitatsS Their
Remaining.
WOULD HAVE
BEEN PREPARING
1t Will Be Necessary to Keep $4,000
Soldiers in the Philippines for
Some Time.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 18.-But for the
recent affair around Manila the volun-
teers under Gen. Otis would have been
preparing to start homeward. The
movement of 1000 regulars to the Philip
pines was planued and inaugurated With
q view to the return of 13, 900 volunteers
now on service in the archipelago. The
transports enroute to Manila were, ex-
pected to lead with volunteers and star
for San Francisco soon after they
reached the former ports. Had there
been no outbreak by the FiIipinos, and
had Aguinaldo shown the disposition to
acknowledge American authority that
was expected to follow ratification of the
treaty, the first of the returning9 volun-
teers would have been on their way
home before the end of March, probably.
But the recent events have caused a
modification of plans. The 1000 regu-
lars will be re-enforcments. The volun-
teers will remain longer, ,suntil it shall
appear certain that the Filipinos do not
mean to continue fighting. Gen. Miles
thinks, since the battle of last Sunday,
that it will be necessary to keep $4,000
soldiers in the Philippines for some
time. The plans of the president have
not contemplated so large an army there
by one-half. The only thing to do is to
wait and see the effects of the lesson
taught.
