GARCIA rs CAPTURED.

Second In Command of the Filipfnos Taken
!2:3:I'%s by Americans. ~ 9''@t s-5f4. sst|.
MANILA, May 8.-General Pantelon
Garcia, the highest insurgent officer ex-
cept Aguinaldo, was captured by Lieu
tenant e. v. Smith Of General Fun
ston's staff in the town Of Jael, three
miles north Of San Isidro, province of
New Echida. ray - ~ 'c'
Garcia personally directed the guer-
rilla operations and General Funston
had spent weeks in trying to corner
him, several companies beating, the
whole country at night. Often the
Americans caught messengers bearing
Garcia s orders. The people protected
him and burned signal lights whenever
the American soldiers appeared. He
seldom slept twice in the same town.
Recently General Funston surprised
him and his staff while dining. at
Arayat at dusk. The Filipinos leaped
through the windows and escaped, leav-
ing their papers and everything except
the clothing they wore. The strain of
being hunted finally exhausted their
endurance. -
The Last Ungarrisoned Town.
Jael is the last ungarrisoned town in
the province. Spies reported that Gar
cia was sick and had been compelled to
remain there and 40 cavarymen sur
rounded the town. The spies led them
directly to the house where Garcia was
disguised as peasant, only a major and
two servants being with him. These
also were captured. Garcia commanded
all the insurgents in Central Luzon,
several generals, including Pho del lPilar
and Mascardo being under him.
General Funston is in Manila, where
he came to bid farewell to General
Otis. He will return and endeavor to
persuade Garcia to secure the surrender
Of his forces, which number several
Thousand. Most of Garcia's men live
in the mountains and few bands num-
ber more than hundred.

GET AT
THE CAUSE
OF Backaches and Headaches, and
Remove Ii by Using
DR.. A. w. CHASE'S
KIDNEY-LIVER PILLS.

The error of the dav in medical treat
ment is the "doctoring" of effects in
stead of getting at the cause. powder
for headache, tablet for indigestion,
and plaster for backache. These may
afford slight temporary relief, but next
day the old trouble is back again. Be-
sides, think of the effect of a drug
strong enough to stop headaches almost
Immediately.
Backache is kidney ache. A sure in
dication that the kidneys are badly dis.
eased Backache is natures signal OF
alarm to warn people that the kidneys
are no longer able to perform their duty
of filtering the blood. And this means
that the foul impurities which would
otherwise be carried off by the kidneys
remain in the blood, and find their way
to every organ of the body, where they
act as deadly poisons.
DR.. Chase's Kidney Liver Pills are the
worlds greatest kidney cure, because
they act directly on the kidneys and re-
store them to health, strength and vigor.
They remove the cause OF headaches,
backaches aud an endless chain OF most
fatal and complicated diseases.
DR.. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills are
purely vegetable, and act pleasantly and
naturally. One pill a dose IS cents a
box, at all dealers. or DIR. A. w. Chase

KlpIinu Mt Home.

When Rudyard Kipling and his fami-
ly are at Nottingham, England, they
lead a quiet life. The village is one of
the qualntest in England, and many
famous people have lived there. The
village is planted in what seems to be
large crevice in the chalk cliffs.
There Is n little stone church near
the Kipling house that is 500 years old.
All the dwellings are surrounded by
walls, a relic of olden days. when every
mans house was his castle. Kipling's
house remains as when it was built,
hundreds of years ago. 1t has small
windows and steep roof, and around
the place, inside and out, is the air of
carelessnesS always associated with
literary people. inside most of the
rooms are gloomy, because the numer-
thinned out.
There is some fine antique carved
furniture in the house, though Kipling
took over with him many pieces Of
modern American furniture, that look
queerly out of place, stuffed chairs
and sofas being among them. A big
library table is Uttered with pipes, pa
per, ink and ashes, and it is here Kip
ling writes.
When the weather is good, nearly
every morning finds Kipling down on
the gravelly beach talking with his
two children and all the neighbors'
youngsters. He does not shoot nor
ride nor fish When he Is not working
he just loafs. He dislikes strangers
and hates to get up early in the morn
ing.

it's Plain "Mr." Astor.

William Waldorf Astor is discovering
In sundry little ways that he has not
bettered his position in English society
by flinging away his birthright of
American citizenship. Before he be-
came a naturalzed Engllshman he was
allowed to sport the title of "honora-
BILE" because he had once been men,
Der of an American legislature. The
Marquis de Fontenoy says he has now
received n quiet semlofiical tip to
abandon the use of this title, which
has a more definite meaning in Eng
land than In the United States. Sons
or daughters of peers above a certain
rank are officially allowed to use this
handle TO their names, and Mr.. Glad
stone with some difficulty secured the
same privilege for members of colonial
legislatures. As Mr. Astor is only a
common middle class Englishman, he
can be nothing but plain mister and
is denied even the much abused
squire" - Pittsburg Chronicle Tele-
graph.
