FIFTY TONS OF CANDY
Have cen Sent to Our Soldiers In the
Philippine Islanis BY the GOvernm mt.

Fifty tons of candy have been sent
to the soldiers in the Philippine Islands
by the commissary department of the
army during the last three months to
the soldiers in Cuba and Porto Rico.
This is done upon advice OF the med
ical officers of the army, because it is
physiological fact that moderate
health and satisfies a natural craving
of the stomach.
Candy was never furnished to the
United States army before although it
has been commonly used as ration by
the French of British troops in tropics.
This explodes another old fashioned
theory that sweets were injurious to
the digestive organs, while moderate
use of sweets is actually beneficial.
Very few things a,e injurious and the
food cranlls who advocate the use of
few grains and vegetables and decry
the use of sweets and meats are in
error, as wholesome variety of meat
and vegetable food Is absolutely nec-
essary for the maintenance of the
highest condition Of health.
The best rule to follow Is to eat what
the appetite Graves, and II there is any
discomfort or trouble In digestlng
meat and sweets, the difficulty can he
readily overcome by the regular use
after meals of some sale digestive com
posed of pepsin and dlastase when
will assist the stomach by incrpasino
the flow of gastric juice and furnish
the natural peptone lacking in weak
stomachs
The hest preparation of this kind is
probably Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
which may be found at all drug stores
Years of use have demonstrated the
value and effectiveness OF Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets in all cases Of i'm
paired digestion.

them. In few words Mr.. John @.
Weber presented to the department
handsome flag, SKIS feet and an
eight pound copper fire hat to sur
mount the flag staff.
Accompanying the gifts were in
structions to hoist the flag at once and
the orders We're carried out to the let
ter. The flag was run up Immediately
and few strokes on the big bell
brought out the entire populace in that
portion of the city. AS the flag float
ed on the breeze cheer went up equal
to any heard during the Santiago days.
The following letter is self-explan-
atory:

At the last meeting of the Grand
Army of the Republic, Adjutant j. s.
Taggart, submitted his annual report
to Buckley Post.
His report in full was as follows:
"Eli Smith,
Commander Buckley Post, No. II.
"Dear Sir and Comrade:
Having been instructed to present
to you my stewardship as your Adju-
tant for the year ending Dec. 81, 1900.
I have the honor to submit to you and
the members of our Post the following
report:
1.-THE year 1900 under your admin
istration has been one of prosperity
to this Post. Harmony has reigned
supreme throughout the whole year.
Comrades have rendered you their as
sistance at all times, and were ever
ready to obey your commands. The
only mistake you have made was at
the commencement of your administra-
tion by the appointment of your Ad-
jutant. This created some adverse
feeling among a few of the members
of this order, but your Adjutant has
SO conducted the affairs of his Office
that he hopes to retire with the kind
est of feeling towards him from each
and every member Of this Post.
"If your Adjutant at times seemed
too personal and bored down little
to hard upon the members in his lodge
notes. it was with no intentional in
suit to any individual member. l
want you to thank the members for
the very courteous treatment l have
received from them during the year.
I have endeavored to perform the du-
ties of Adjutant to the best of my abil'
ity. If have been remiss in any of
my duties as such, it was fault of
natures in not endowing me with the
proper ability. The attendance dur
ing the year has averaged 45 men,
bers. The commander has been very
punctual in his attendance, having
missed but two sessions. The senior
and junior vice and the trustees have
not been as punctual in their attend
ance as they should have been, but
they should all be excused for their
personal affairs have been of such
nature that it was not possible for
them TO be more prompt in their at
tendance. The other officers have all
been very punctual in their attend
ance. Your officer of the day and your
Adjutant have not been absent sin
gle session.
"When your Adjutant assumed the
duties as such he found that according
to his predecessors reports, there was
376 members upon the rolls in good
standing. have the honor to report
that during the year just ended that
the books show that there are 486
members upon our rolls, a gain of go,
We lost by death 10; by transfer ..
During the year we placed natural
gas in the hall, for heating and light
ing purposes, at an expense of $95.16.
We also papered and painted and re-
decorated the hall, the parlor, the
card room and the ante room aud hall
ways; also the banquet hall, at an ex-
pense of $146.24; total $2i1.40. There
was a new roster of 500 copies gotten
out during the year at an expense Of
SOS, which was borne by the adver-
tisers whose names appear in that
work.
The quartermaster will submit to
you the financial condition of this
Post, which feel will be satisfactory
to you and all our members.

the SITUATION.

The city treasury is absolutely
empty, and has been for some three
weeks past.
On June Goth a special city meeting
voted to pledge the credit Of the city
temporarily, in sum or sums not to
exceed 500, 900.
At a meeting Of the city council
held July a resolution was passed
empowering the mayor, city clerk,
and president Of the finance commit
tee to negotiate the loan or loans. In
order to expidate the loans the resolu-
tion passed should have been signed
by the mayor.
At the council meeting held July
2 city warrants, approximating $l3,-
900 were ordered paid. These war
rants have to be signed by the mayor.
Among the warrants ordered paid at
that time was one for the state tax of
81, 10000, then overdue, and warrants
for July interest approximating 49,
$50.
At 10 o'clock today the mayor had
the resolution, passed by the council
July 2, still in his possession and I'M
signed. He also had the warrants
approximating sl3, 900, they also being
unsigned.
The people who have worked for
the different city departments the
past month can get no pay till the
mayor helps negotiate the loan of
500, and signs the city warrants
ordered paid July 2. The state tax
cannot be paid, nor any of the city's
other obligations. This is the situa-
