A New Burlington Book.

Railroad companies are great patrons,
not only of the liberal arts, but of that
modern classical expression that print
ing, engraving and photography places
within reach of everyone.
The Burlington Route has contributed
its share to the sum total of railroad art
and its latest addition will rank among
the finest specimens of scenic souvenirs
ever issued. 1t is the Burlington's book
of St. Paul and Minneapolis, a rich OBJ
long volume picturing first the magni6-
cent train, then Genes along the route,
then St. Paul and surroundings followed
by Fort Smelling and Minneapolis. In
all respects. composition, letter press,
illustrations and binding, it is a dainty
volume.
Copies of the elegant book can be had

The readers Of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages, and that is
catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
positive, cure now known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh, being a constitu.
tional disease, requires a constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly on the blood
and surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation of the
disease and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and
assisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have SO much faith in its
curative powers that they offer One Hun
dred Dollars for any case that it fails
to cure. Send for list of Testimonials.

has been M of the most profitable ever
held in the county. Sc we're enrolled as

Capture OF Tarlac Was Easy.
Tarlac, the late headquarters of
AguinaldO'S government. was taken
easily. There was rear guard of 400
rinpmOs there when our troops ap-
reached. but they let out as soon as
they saw our men cominE. An insur-
gent supply department was captured
at MayuG consisting of several hun
dred thousand pounds of rice. 5000
pounds flour. 1900 pounds salt and
other provisions. Thirteen hundred
uniform coats. new. many blankets and
other articles of clothing were found
there: also number of insurgent Off
GERS and SiXty-nine Spanish and two
American prisoners. 1t looks as though
the rebellion could last but little
longer.
Chinese Exclusion in the Philip ines.
Whether Chinese exclusion should
be applied to the Philippines is among
the subjects engaging the attention of
the Philippine commission. Consider
able evidence bearing on the matter
has been collected. and besides present
ing this testimony with their full re-
port it is expected that recommends
ton will be made which may have con-
siderable influence in shaping the
course of this government and the ac-
tiOn of congress. 1t is understood that
two of the members of the commission
Denly and WOrceSter-haVe eN-
pressed themselves as favorable to an
application of the Chinese exclusion
act to the Philippines. From the fact
that General Otis has issued an order
for Chinese exclusion II is assumed
that his voice. as a member of the
commission. also would be for Chinese
exclusion in the Philippines.

an ordnance depot was established at
the fort. Capt. w. r. Shoemaker
