The report Of the tripartite commission
sent to Samoa has been published. 1t
says that the chief evils which affllct
Samoa are those which inevitably attend
the election of king and his subsequent
efforts to assert his authority, and those
which are due to the rivalry of foreign
nationalities between themselves and to
their disposition to take sides in the ma
tive politics. To meet the first of these
evils. they say, they have abolished the
kjngship, and recommend that 1T be
made permanent Native chiefs VIII rule
over districts and meet annually to dis
cuss the affairs of government and make
recommendations to the administration
and council. The second evil rs not SO
easy to do away with under a tripartlte
administration. The commissioners do
not think in fact that permanent pros
perity and tranquility will ever be OBJ
tanned except under the government OF
one power. The commissioners will ap-
point an administrator from a disinter-
csted power. and he will be assisted by
! a council Of delegates from the three
governments.

JAN MAzEPPA's CAREER.
Escapade Of the Hero of the Wild Horse
 of the Ukraine.

Escapade Of the Hero of the Wild Horse
 of the Ukraine.
 Jan Mazeppa was born about the year 1645, being the son of a poor mo- bleman of Podolia. For some time the youth served as page at the Court of John Casimir, King of Poland. On his return to his native province he carried on an intrigue with the wife of one of his neighbors. Being sur- prised by the offended husband, he was bound by his orders to one of the wild horses which roam about the Ukraine, and the terrified animal, being turned loose, ran with his burden till it reach- ed the country of the Cossacks, where Mazeppa, half dead, was released by the peasants.
 Being tenderly nursed by the peas~ ants, Mazeppa was restored to health and rose to such favor with their Het- man that he was chosen as his success sor. As chief of the Cossacks, he ren- dered many services to Peter the Great, and, being strongly attached to the liberties of his adopted country, Is said to have made earnest but unaYailing remonstrances to that monarch when he had resolved to violate them.
 Created Prince of the Ukraine, Ma zeppa became tired of his dependence on the Emperor and entered into sec ret league with Charles XII. of Sweden. His scheme being discovered, and his capital, Batourin, having been taken by the Russians, he joined the Swedish King. The battle of Pultown was the result of his counsel, and after that dis astrous engagement Mazeppa took ref uge at Bender, where he poisoned him- self September 22. 1709

HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE RAPID
 INCREASE OF HEART TROUBLES.
Do Not Re Alarmed, But Look For the
 Cause.

Heart troubles. at least among the Americans, are certainly increasing and while this may be largely due to the excitement and worry of Amerl- can business life, it Is more often the result of weak stomachs, of poor digestion.
 Real organic disease Is incurable: but not one case in hundred Of heart trouble Is organic.
 The close relation between heart trouble and poor digestion is be- cause both organs are controlled by the same great nerves, tie Sympa- thetic and Pneumogastric.
 In another way, also the heart is effected by the form of poor diges- ton. which causes gas and fermenta- tiOn from half digested food. There is Ii feeling of oppression gand heavi- ness in the chest caused by pressure of the distended stomach on the heart and lungs, interfering Ewith their action; hence artses DalpitatIon and short breath.
 Poor digestion also poisons the blood, making it thin and watery which iriitates and weakens the heart.
 The most sensible treatment for heart trouble is to improve the di- gestion and to insure the prompt assimilation of food.
 This can be done by the regular use after meals nfsome safe, pleasant and effective digestive prepara ton, like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may be found at most drug stores and which contain valuable, harmless digestive elements in Il pleasant, COL. vtnient form.
 It IS safe to say that the regular persistent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at meal time will cure any form of stomach trouble except ean- cer of the stomach.
 Full sized package of these tablets sold by druggists at 90 cents. Little book on stomach troubles mailed free. Address F. A. Stuart Co.,, Mar shall. Mich.

Kingston, Jamaica. Feb. 24.-Ad- vices which have just been received here from Cayenne. French Guiana, say that the joint commission ap- pointed to inquireInto the boundary question between France and Brazi has just been heard from on the Cou- mani river. The news was more sen- sational than satisfactory, and for some reason Acknowledgement was doing it's utmost to suppress the facts.
 The correspondent says that both commissions went out guarded by heavy escorts equally matched. The Frenchmen had the gunboat Jouff- roy and fifty Sengalese soldiers, and the Brszijians had the guDboac Guarny and an equal number of troops A collisi n occurred be- tween these two forces in the iniei- for. There were no details and it was not publicly known whether there had been any blo0dshed. The fact that the Governor immediate ly sent endorsements of 200 troops to the front without waiting to communicate with Paris, was thought to indicate that the matter was serious.
 Tine French government has Issued an order that all liberated convicts now at large in the colony shall be concentrated in Maroni. This indis- criminate and sunlOoked-for action tells most cruelty on many now re- spectable citizens Of Cayenne. Being legally unable to make any distinC- tion between the reformed and the | ineOrfigible eut-thr0at element which is annually growing larger and becoming q menace to the col ony, all have been rnthlpSsly includ- ed in the damnation of Mac0hi.
 According 5o British Guiana news papers, the authorities tEere are on the lookout for these prospective immigrants over the border, and this is, perhaps, the cruelest aspect of the affair. Ii some of the expatri- ated respec table citizens of Cayerne decide to try their fortunes in the more enlightened British possessions they will be depo1t ted back to Cay enne as rascals, t., be dealt with ac- cOrding to the French law.
