Washington December s.-Thc report
OF the secretary Of the navy has been made
public II says that the second volume Of
the report OF the department for the year
1898 covered all the operations OF the
feets during the period OF hostilities with
Spain. Since that time active operations
have been confined to the waters OF the
Philippines, where. by reason Of the in-
surrection on the island OF Luzon. 1t has
been necessary to assemble and maintain
large squadron. Admiral Dewey re-
manned in command OF this squadron un-
I'll May 20. 1899. when he was relieved by
Captain A. S. Barker, who was relieved in
turn. on June 20. by Rear Admiral J. G..
Watson. the present commander In chief.
Inc principal duties of the Asiatic SQUAD
ron nave been TO cooperate with the army
ana 10 MAINTAIN blockade OF such ex-
tent as has been determined by the general
poiiey OF campaign laid down by the war
department Many important expeditions
nave been carred out involving duty OF
an Hrduous character. and few casualties
have occurred
Secretary Long then details the loss OF
Lieutenant II q. Gilmore and party OF four
teen who were captured April II, the Ur-
Dante crew in September and made a brief
mehtion OF the loss or the Charleston. The
movements of the various squadrons are
detailed and paragraph refers to the re-
turn OF Admiral Dewey who was received
win most enthusiastic welcome from
the whole country
Since the annual report of the depart
ment the following vessels, which were
then building under contract have been
conditionally or finally accepted Davis,
Mackenzie. Farragut, Rowan, Fox, tor
pedo boats; Chesapeake practice ship;
fsnacook, Pawtucket, tugs. and the Kear-
sarge, battleship.
In addition 10 the new construction
added rs above. the following vessels,
which were sunk during the war with
spain, have been recovered and added TO
the navy; ReIna Mercedes, cruiser Don
Juan DE Austria. gunboat Isla de Cuba
ana isla de Luzon, gunooats.
In addition TO these considerable IN.
crease In the small craft on the Asiatc
station has been made through the pur-
chase or capture OF the vessels in the
following: Albay, Belusan. Calamianes Ell

Mindoro Paragua, Pampango and panay,
gunboats; Petrelita and kapido. tugs;
samar, gnnboat; Sureste, tug; Urdaneta
ana Nasco. gunboats,
Regarding the vessels under constitute
tion the report says: Some delay has oc-
CURED on vessels under construction
through the inability of the contractors
to procure armor and other material. and
the lack of experience on the part OF
some OF them In building torpedo craft /;
and the dates of oompleticc.in some cases
have been somewhat postponed from those
given IN my last report. The followinS
table shows the condition ON November /
OF all vessels building for the navy, to-

Content with the Sentence.

"Your worship, said the willy solicit
tor, who was defending the stalwart
prisoner in the dock, you cannot pos
sibly convict my client ofhousebreak-
ing. submit, sir, with all Difference,
that neither morally nor legally can
you convict him. I will tell you why.
"Mr Skies, here, as the evidence
clearly proves, did not break into any
house at all. He found the parlor
window open, as the witnesses admit,
and all he did was to put in his right
arm and remove some unimportant
articles. Now, sir, Mr. Skies arm is
not himself, and l fail to see how you
can punish the whole individual for
an ofrense committed by only one OF
his limbs
Every well, sir, said the cautious
Solomon Of the bench; q have heard
of a similar defense before today, SO l
find the prisoners arm guilty and
sentence it to six months imprison-
ment. The gentleman himself can
accompany it or not, as he chooses.
Mr.. Clerk, record the sentence.
Then Mr.. Skies smiled 14-inch
smile and the plan of the defense be-
came apparent, as he quietly proceed
ed to unscrew his guilty cork arm and
leave it in the custody Of the court.

Chinese Justice.

OfLi Hung Chang numberless stories
are told in Chinese society. Now and
then one reaches this country through
our consuls in China.
On one occasion when the premier
was having bitter fight with some Of
the more conservative members of the
Tsung-H- Yamen he received as pres
ent magnificent cake, which he had
reason to suspect contained poison. He
put the cake aside and set all his pow
e1ful machinery to work to find out
who was at the bottom Of the plot.
The investigation was partly success
full, the crime being traced TO three
men, of whom one, at least, was abso-
lutely guilty. Ii had the trio arrest
ed and brought to his Yamen. When
they arrived they were ushered into
his presence and were received in his
courtliest manner. The cake was pro-
duced, with the remark that polite
ness forbade his tasting it until the
three generous donors had had an op-
portunity to enjoy its excellence. Ii
cut the cake and one of his servitors
handed it to the unwilling guests.
Each took a piece and ate, or pretend
ed to eat it. One crumbled the pieces
and let them fall upou the floor, but
the other two ate calmly, without
manifesting any emotion. Ten minutes
and the two men began to show signs
of suffering. Ii smiled benignantly,
and said to the man who had not eaten:
your wisdom is so great that I am
compelled to preserve your head as
souvenir to transcendent genius.
The man was removed and promptly
decapitated. To the other two the
premier remarked: "The cake that
you are eating is not the one you sent,
but one which I had my cook initiate.
The poison from which you are suffer-
ing exists only in your imagination. I
know of no way to cure your present
pain except by letting you share the
same fate as your friend who has just
left the room"
As they were led away the states
man said to his retinue: at is pity
that man who can eat a deadly cor
rosiye poison with an unmoyed coun-
enance should so misapply the talent
wherewith heaven has endowed him.

Mr.. Robt. Il. Wills,
% Elizabeth Street.
Dear Sir-For a number OF years l was az
flicted with Indigestion, Kidney and Liver
Disease, IntlammatOry rheumatism, Catarrh
and SCrofula In its worst form, having an
open sore upon my neck, which had not been
healed for more than five years, and from
which fragments OF bone had been extracted.
During the period of my aflliction was sub
iect to frequent attacks, which would con-
tiuue for weeks at time, in which would
suffer untold pain and misery. In March,
1873 [ entered the Johns Hopkins Hospital,
OF Baltimore. Md, and took course OF about
six weeks treatment, but even under the
skill and ability OF the able physicians OF
that institution, was unable TO tie cured or
even more than empOrarily benefited, nav
ing TO continue under the treatment of emil
nent physicians in other localities, as well as
battling the skill OF five of the leading physi-
clans of this city, as all Of my friends and ac-
Quaintances having known the condition OF
my health may be able TO testify. In April,
lSlS, II seeming almost as q last resort, de-
cided to try your Vegetable Compound, and
/ am now happy TO say IT has cured me en-
TREY of every anlictiOn, my health being in
a better condition at this time than ii has
been since 1 was 81 child, and weigh more at
this time than ever before in all my life. /
do most sincerely recommend the Vegetable
Compound to every one who may be afflicted
with the diseases that have mentioned, be-
lieving II taken according to directions, 1t
will cure them as ii has cured me.
Very Respectfully,
MISS ALICE STICKELL,
