Royal Baking Powder may cost little

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently It's perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIe SYRUP

effects and to avoid limitations, please

FORCE THE REBEL POSITION.
Col Wharey's Command Quickly Drove
the Insurgents from Their Intrench-
ments-President Mckinley viii Send
Instructions to Force the Fighting.

Manila, June 6.-Two battalions of
the Washington troops. under Col.
Whalley, on board canoes, were towed
from Pasig to Morong on Sunday and
landed under cover Of a well directed
fire from the "tinclad" army gunboats,
Napidan and Covadonga.
The rebels, who were intrenched in
the outskirts of the town, reserved their
fire until the troops were ashore and
in the open. The American artillery
opened fire on the insurgents and
drove them from their position, killing
nine of them and wounding five. The
Washington troops then took the town,
the rebels fleeing TO the hills.
While the Americans were on their
way to Morong the insurgents opened
fire from a shore battery at Ancona,
their first shot striking the Cavadon-
gas awning aft at a range Of $500
yards. The Napidan was also fired at.
Meanwhile, with view to surround
ing the enemy, Halls brigade, consist
ing of the Second Oregon, a battalion
of the Second Wyoming, four troops OF
the Fourth cavalry, two battalions Of
the Fourth infantry, one battalion OF
the Ninth infantry, the first six COM
panies OF the First Colorado, and two
mountain guns, moved along the crest
of the mountain on the west side Of
Manquina.
They swept down the Antipolo val
ley. their object being the rebel town
Of Antipolo. They met with stout re-
sistance from Gen. Pho del Pillars
forces, but their heavy skirmish line
carried all before them. This was made
up Of the Oregonians, the artillery and
the Fourth infantry.
Their movement was so rapid that
the Filipinos had not time to defend
or destroy Antipolo. II was captured
at $3.50 o'clock In the morning. A
large quantity of arms and ammuni-
ton was seized. No prisoners were
taken, Halls men simply driving the
rebels off in much the same way as q
New York police detachment disperses

Pho del Pillars army fed into the
mountains, and It Is supposed that they
are now at Bosoboso
Halls brigade then marched to Tay-
cay, which offered more suitable camp

tachment.
BY this movement Hall and Truman
had cleaned up the Antipolo and Man.
Quina valleys, and after they had gone
through there not a Filipino was left.
The American loss was only two
KILLED and nine wounded.

President and His Advisors Consult Re-

President and His Advisors Consult Re-
gsrding Manila Campaign.
Washington. June &-When the
news from Manila arrived yesterday
evening Of the continuation Of fighting
President Mckinley called Assistant
Secretary Meiklejohn and Gen. Corbin
into his confidence last night at the
white house to discuss the military sit
uation and prepare advices TO Cen
Otis.
No official reports of the battles have
been received, but several days ago
Gen. Otis notified the president that he
would resume active operations and
expected that Gen. Lawton would
make the movement to clear out the
insurgents to the east Of Manila. The
conference last night was therefore to
arrange for future campaigns.
The president and the war depart
ment have been in receipt Of dispatches
from Manila in regard to the rainy
season and have been advised that the
prospect Is that there will be very lit
tie rain this summer In the islands.
This Is based upon the experience Of
last summer, when little rain fell, and
It is claimed there was practically no
rainy season at all. While there have
been several heavy storms this summer
the precipitation has not been anything
to compare with former years and Gen.
Otis is Of the opinion that the cam
paign can go ahead.
The conference last night at the
white house was along these lines, and
although there was extreme reticence
among the officials In regard to the
matter 1t Is learned that the president
and his advisers were of the opinion
that military operations could and
would be continued and that active
preparations should be made to collect
the remaining 5000 troops to be sent to
the Philippines to make up the re-
quired quota of 10000 asked for by Gen.
Otis.
