SURPRISE
Expressed that a Confidential Letter Ap-
pears in Print in Havana.
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
Washington, d. c., June I'm view
of several representations made in Ha.
vana regarding the Interpretation by
the Secretary of War. to Cuban Com
missioners. of the Platt amendment, it
can be, stated authoritatively that the
Secretary did not deviate from the ira 9.
dition that the President and himself
had no power to change an act of Coz
gress. 1t is said here that the amend
ments which the Cuban Convention
made totne Platt law and the incorpo-
ration of conversations with Secretary
Root did not represent his views of the
amendment nor was he correctly quot
ed in alleged statements. Among re-
ports given out in Havana is a trans
lation of the letter of Senator Platt
written to the Secretary of War, fur
nished as confidential document to
the Cuban Commissioners when they
were here. This letter briefly gives
the views of the Connecticut Senator
on some features of the law which
bears his name. Surprise is expressed
that the letter should appear in print
in Havana.

LUNGS IMPLANTED.
rison Is Reported Decid-
eddy Unfnvorable.

Indianapolis, Ind, March 1.-THE
condition of ex-President Benjamin
Harrison may be stated in one word
serious. His family for a number
of days have thought it advisable to
say little to the newspapers regard
ing the seriousness of his condition,
but Sunday DR.. jameson stated that
the upper part of Gen. Harrison's left
lung was inflamed. There is some
danger of the congestion extending
to the rest of the lung and to the
right lung. Until three o'clock Sun
day afternoon Gen. Harrison was
resting easily, but at that time he be-
came slightly worse and DR.. jameson
was called. He said that he was GER
tain nothing was to be apprehended
for the next 4s hours, but the age
of the patient renders all calcula-
lions uncertain.
The Oskaloosa herald., 1901-03-14

in the line of immoral suasion cannot be
surpassed.
Ii is a reflection on mans reason that
he often refuses to do what common
sense dictates, until he is forced to do
it. Common sense tells a man that he
cannot live irregularly and keep his
health. He is warned and admonished
time and again that hasty eating and
irregular meals result in diseases of the
stomach and other organs Of digestion
and nutrition. But because Nature does
not directly threaten his life as the pistol
does he goes right along until he is
obliged to reform because disease forces
him to do so.
UNHEEpED WARNINGS.
It is only when all her warnings have
been unheeded that Nature no longer
saws uYou should notn but vYou shall
not.n This is practically what happens
when the lover of high living has to give
MP dainty dishes, sweets and condiments
and come down to a diet of oatmeal or
tea and toast.
There are thousands of dyspeptics
whose condition shuts them u from all
the pleasures of the table. There are
thousands of others who are on the high
road to a like condition, unheeding the
warnings of the protesting stomach.
The great fact is that every man and
woman who suffers from dyspepsia can
be almost certainly cured by the use of
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
1t always helps. 1t almost always cures.
Only two people in every hundred who
give vGolden Medical Discovery " a fair
and faithful trial fail of a perfect and
permanent cure.

up hope that the United States will re-

Touching Recognition of Loyalty and
Faithfulness of Sir Ponson-
by-Fane.

London, March 1.-THE king has
bestowed an unusual token of rec
ignition of services upon Sir Spencer
Cecil Brabazon Ponsonby-Fane, a life
long officer of Queen Victoria's house
hold. The recipient of the kings ia
vor, who is broken down by old age
and is retiring to private life, was
summoned to Marlborough house,
where the king in a few simple
phrases of thanks for his loyalty to
his mother, presented him with the
cane with which Queen Victoria
walked for 80 years. The old mans
relatives say that if the king had
raised i'm to a dukedom he could
not so have kindled his pride or
touched his heart.
