PRISONER IN THE PHILIPPINES.

John L. Fox, a private CT Co. A,

transport Hancock, from Manila, apent
half the time in the Philippines as
prisoner in the hands of the Filipinos.
From January 18th, 1893, until the 1st
OF September of the same year, Young
Fox was held by the i-barbTous
natives in mountain Businesses, with no
knowledge of his whereabouts nor. of
the intentions of his captors concerning
his own disposition. he escaped several
times, only to be captured again and
threatened with summary punishment
If he again attempted to get away. He
had reason to believe that the threat
might be carried out, for a fellow
prisoner named John Kenney, from,
illinois, private of the Thirtieth,
was deliberately shot by the Filipinos
for attempting to escape.
On January 18th, 1880, so, compris-
ing pony train, were suddenly sur
rounded by large number of armed
Filipinos ct the mouth Of u ravine near
Santiago Hill in Southern Luzon. Most

PALE WOMEN
A BI00dIess ace In
dicates Trouble.
Watery Blood a Menace
to Health.
WE KNOW HOW PALE
PEOPLE CAN GET RICH
RED BLOOD.
COME AND LET US TELL YOU
ABOUT VIN0L.

When blood is watery and thin, or,
as doctors would say, lacks red blood
corpuscles, it is a sign that much is rad
ically wrong.
We would advise everyone who has
such symptoms to start at once to
take a proper remedy to overcome this
trouble.
That remedy is Vinol, the greatest
and most modern tonic and rebuilder.
Vinol owes its virtue to the fact that
it contains in a highly concentrated
state the active curative principles eX-
tracted from Gods livers, the same ele-
mentS that have made cOd-liver oil
famous for wasting diseases.
These medicinal elements are dis
solved in a delicious ia BILE wine so that
Ninol is most palatable.
None of the vile-smelling obnoxious
grease that characteriZes cod-liver oil
and frequently makes it an impossible
remedy for those who should take it,
is found in Vinoi.
We could relate many instances
where Vinol has done good and re
stored the roses of health to the pale
checks of the sufferer.
The following is fair sample of the
way people write in regard to Ninoi:
For several months 1 suffered lassi-
tude and tired all the time. Also a
sinking feeling in my stomach, which
nothing would relieve, and / was pale
and weak. AS an experiment / tried
Vinol and if l wrote pages ] could not
tell all it has done for me. Mrs. a.
X. LA PRusCH, Amesbury, Mass.
Because we know VinOl so well,
and because we know so surely
what. it will do, and how it will
accomplish the good it does in a
scientific way, we unreServedly en-
dOrse and recommend it, and in
every instance guarantee to refund
10 any one what they pay US for
Vinol if they do not find it entirely
satisfactory.

for president, Mr.. Mckinley. Ne in
considerable portion of this vast sum
was wrung from the consumers of the
land by the increase in the cost OF
commodities. Mr.. Rockefeller, of
course, heads the list of these pros
porous plutocrats, with a clear gain
of $3.50, 900, 600, largely made in the
advances on Standard oil stock,
which is the greatest money
getter the world has seen.
Pierpont Morgan, the great rail-
way promoter, counts his gains
for the year at $50, 900. 900, and w. X.
Vanderbilt at S25, 100000. The
others range from $40. 900, 600 profits
on the years business down to
one. We do not find Mr.. Carnegie's
name on the list, although Mr.. Frick
is authority for the statement that
during the year he would make
$40, 900, 900 out of his steel interests,
which is more legitimate business
than the stock operations of the 9TH
ers, for Mr.. Carnegie made his money
out of great manufacturing enter
prises, meeting the worlds demand
for steel and iron. On generally ac-
cepted figures he would rank next
after Mr.. Rockefeller or Mr.. Wander
bilt.
We doubt if these enormous profits
can be accepted as Indicating whole
some degree of business prosperity.
Counted in on per capita distribu-
ton of the wealth gained during the
year, it would increase the average 81
fer each man, woman and child in the
United States. That would count for
nothing except as raising the average
for purposes of comparison. This
gain of 1915, 900, 900 by % persons is
not healthy. 1t marks illegitimate
rather than legitimate business. Not
dollar of it came directly from
raising a bushel of wheat or bale
of cotton. 1t represents largely the
advantages gained by partnership fav-
ors from the government in the way
of franchise rights for corporations
and monopolies. 1t stands largely
for the extortions of trusts and how
one million can be nodded to make
other millions. The country is pros
porous, but the difficulty appears in
the distribution of its prosperity. a
4 per cent income tax levied on this
enormous growth of individual wealth
would yield the government 81 ,00O,-
600. 1t was achieved under the aid
and with the protection of govern
ment, yet pays nothing to its sup
port and maintenance.

New Century Greetings.

With the coming of the New Year,
the president of the Anheuser-Busch
Brewing association sent to every
wholesale customer the following
pleasant greeting by wire:
1.-The Anheuser-Busch Eagle heralds
loudly the praise of those who helped
make him famous throughout the
world, and extends hearty thanks and
New Century greetings.
''ADoLPHUs BUSCH, President"
The reference to the eagle will be
readily recognized as applying to the
well known trade mark of the largest
brewing association in any country.
This trade mark consists of large A
and an eagle with wings outspread.
During the year 1000 the output of
this association reached it's highest
point, which by far exceeds that of
any competitor at home or abroad.
Their watchword has ever been
'.Not how cheap, but How Good, {" and
the purity and satisfaction of their
products has entitled them to the
they are receiving from a
discriminating public in every coun-
try in the world.

THE ILLINOIS DEMOCRATIC COM
MITTEE.


MITTEE.
The democratic state central COM
mittee of Illinois made an admirable
selection for chairman in John P.
Hopkins, of Chicago, at its biennial
meeting in Chicago yesterday. De-
spite the fact that Mr.. Hopkins has
not at all times been in accord
with all the tenets of his party he was
true in the last national campaign,
and hence the tight made upon him
in his own party in some quarters of
the state in connection with the state
craftsmanship was not only short
sighted and. i'll advised but, in the
end, it is believed to have adj
vanced mis- candidacy. The way to
build up and restore great party is
not by broadening the chasm created
by differences of opinion and denying
rehabilitation and recognition to those
who may in the past have strayed
from the accepted way. No organi-
zation can thrive if it keeps ever to
the fore the unfortunate bygones.
Mr.. Hopkins is a representative
democrat, aud, regardless of fermer
inclinations on his part, matters of
conviction, too, he has been restored
to full fellowship and confdeE ce in
his party, thus affording an instance
of renewed fealty and devotion to
party faith that should occasion re-
ioicing in the ranks of the great
political organization.
In declaring that the principles
enunciated in the Kansas City plat
form are representative of democ-
racy's faith and sentiment and must
remain go until another national con-
vention meets. the state central COM
mittee showed it's indisposition to do
anything rash. 1t pursued the only
wise and proper course in this
