WASHINGTON LETTER.
FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.
WASHINGTON, APRIL STH, 1901.

The President easily succeeded in
persuading Governor Allen, of Porto
Rico to withhold his resignation, al
though he came to Washington for the
purpose of presenting it. He will re-
turn to Porto Rico about the lst of May,
but it is not expected that he will re-
main more than fe Z months Logger.
He says the island Is getting along all
right, and that after the first of next
March, when the tariff law, under which
the revenues for the support of the is
land government are now raised will
expire, there will probably be free trade
with the United States.
1t is an open secret in Washington
that the Navy Department is not favor
ably inclined toward the Holland Sub
marine Boat Company, although num-
Der of Naval officers think and have
spoken very highly cfthe Holland type
of boat, Admiral Dewey among them.
1t was this opposition that prevented
legislation at the last session Of Con-
gress authorizing the construction Of
additional Holland boats for the Navy.
That this opposition is to be continued
is made plain by the announcement
that, by direction Of Secretary Long,
the Naval Board of Construction will
prepare designs for submarine boat,
to be submitted to Congress with an
estimate Of its cost.
An incident is related of the college
life of Hon. G. G. Knox, the new At
torney General, which shows what
small things sometimes effect mans
future. Mr.. Knox was a student at the
West Virginia University, which had a
rule chat no student should attend a
theatrical performance. One night,
Mr.. Knox and 10 other students VIC
lated the rule, and the next day they
were all expelled. All but Mr.. Knox
and one other student signed promise
not to again violate the rule and were
reinstated. Mr.. Knox then went to
Mt. Union (Ohio) College, where he
first met Mr.. Mckinley, upon whose
advise he afterwards became lawyer,
and upon whose invitation he has now
become Attorney General of the United
States. Had Mr.. Knox not been ex-
PEELED from the West Virginia Univer-
sity, he might never have met Mr..
Mckinley.

Ought, II would seem, TO give exemption
from the diseases which prey upon the
residents of thickly populated cities
But there is no exemption from disease,
and in the country, as i'll the city, one
may see the cheeks grow hollow and the
eyes grow dull while the frame wastes
away with that terrible disease, con-
sumption.
Weak lungs are made strong by the
use of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. 1t cures obstinate and stubborn
coughs, bronchitis, bleeding of the lungs
and other symptoms which, if neglected
or unskillfully treated, terminate fatally
in consumption. The action of Golden
Medical Discovery III the curing of vast
ing diseases is entirely philosophic.
Emacation, and consequent loss of
weight are among the most striking
symptoms of what are known as vast
ing diseases. The body is not being ade-
quately nourished and the cause of this
lack of nourishment is not lack of food
but lack of ability i'll the stomach and
the other organs of digestion and nutli-
ton to prepare the food for the assimila-
ton and nutrition of the body. Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures
diseases of the stomach and the organs
of digestion and nutrition, and so en-
ables the body to be nourished back to
strength in the only way by which
strength can come that is, by food per-
fectly digested and assinilatcd.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
is temperance medicine. 1t contains
no alcohol, neither opium, cocaine or
any other narcotic.
