Havana, May 13.-The Cuban Constitu-

sion and formally considered the report

regarding the intentions of the United

mission made no recommendations. They
were sent to Washington" he said, with
the object of getting some of the bases
changed, but they offer no explanation as
to why the changes could not be effected,
nor do they express an opinion regard
ing acceptance or rejection of the Platt
Amendment IS we had expected they
would
Seniors Tamayo, Llorente and Betan-
court replied that Secretary Root had
explained that the bases could not be
changed, as the Plat Amendment was
the final policy of the Washington Ad-
ministration. 1t was useless, therefore,
they went on to say, for them to insist
upon change but the .copstruction Mr..
Root had put upon the bases, together
with his assurance that the United States
would establish an independent govern
with Cuban sovereignty influenced them
in favor of accepting the amendment al
though they did not recommend this
course in the report.
Senior Juan Gualberto Gomez moved
that the report be referred to the Com
mittee on Relations whose last report
hes still to be acted upon. The motion
was carried, the committee being in
structed to act promptly.

Today.
(By the Associated Press.)


San Jose, Cal, May 13.-Thousands OF
people between Delmonte and San Jose,
who have been anticipating sight of the
President for months, were disappointed
TODAY. The Presidents presence in San
Jose for an hour this afternoon took the
edge off of the disappointment here, where
the Rose Carnival was being held in his
honor and where the floral display sur
passed anything ever before seen in this
part of the country.
The President ran down from San
Francisco in his special car, arriving here
just as the Cabinet train pulled into
the city from the South But he re-
manned only for the formal exercises
When they were concluded at $3.50 o'clock
he was driven back to the station and
left Immediately for San Francisco. At
ST. James Square opposite the court house,
q handsomely decorated stand had been
erected and here the formal exercises
took place. The President in his re-
spouse to the mayors address of well
come said:
1--WE live unde Constitution that was
made for 4,000,000 people and yet it has
proven quite adequate for 75,OOO,O0O OF
people. (Applause). 1t has embraced
within it eyey national duty and pur-
pose, and has never stood in the way Of
our development and expansion. That in
strument seems almost to be inspired to
carry forward the holy mission of liberty.
1t seems not to have been made alone
for those who framed it and their sue
cessors but for all ages and all man
kind. That instrument stands today al
most as it left the hands OF its trainers
Few amendments have been added and
those have only been to enlarge the price,
less blessings of liberty and free gov
eminent to the people and no amendment
can ever be made to the Constitution
of this country that will curtail the SUI
preme and sovereign power OF the people.
(Great applause). We have lived under
it for a hundred and twenty five years, IN
storm and in sunshine, in war within and
without. amidst passions and tumult and
after a century and a quarter that great
instrument stands unsullied by a single
lapse of principle. (Applause).
ITO us, my fellow citizens, young and
old. the preservation of that Constitution
is committed 1t is sacred instrument
and it is a sacred trust given TO us to
see to it that it is preserved in all its
virtue and vigor, to be passed along to
the generations yet to come. Glorious
Constitution, glorious Union, glorious fog.

fend them ALL" Enthusiastic applause).

of the modern man is his stomach. No
man can be stronger than his stomach
because the stomach is in effect the vital
centre of the body. Where does the
heart get it's nourishment? From the
stomach Where is the nourishment
prepared for lungs, liver, kidneys AMI
other organs?. All are nourished from
the stomach. Stop putting food into the
stomach and in time the heart stops
beating We must eat to live. Every.
body knows that They understand that
the man that isn't fed starves. But
what they don't seem to understand i,
that starvation is just as sure when the
man is fed if by reason of disease the
stomach cannot convert the food it re-
ceives into nutrition for the body and its
several organs.
The sign of starvation is emaciation,
loss of flesh That's the sign of dys
pepsia and weak stomach also. The
dyspeptic eats enough but the stomach
and other organs of digestion and nutri-
ton fail to extract the nourishment
from the food so the body grows lean

DYSPEPSIA AND DEGENERACY.
There is a certain physical degeneracy
which results from dyspepsia. If the
body is not nourished it grows weak,
and as the body is only a general name
for the sum of it's organs and members,
to speak of the body growing weak
means that the heart is growing weak,
the lungs are growing weak, and that
the liver and kidneys and other organs
are involved in the same weakness.
When diseases of the stomach and its
allied organs are cured these dependent
weaknesses are cured also.

strength and that is food converted into
nutrition. There are two chief causes
of physical weakness; one insufficient
food the other the inability of the stom-

assimilate the food eaten. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery is not offered
as a substitute for food, but as medi-
cine which enables the perfect digestion
and assimilation of food, and so gives
the body the strength which comes from
food alone.
When the weak stomach is made
strong again by the use of Golden
Medical Discovery" the food it receives
is perfectly digested and assimilated,
and the body in all it's parts and organs
is restored to strength with the stom-
