AoM a LIttIe BOY was Saved.

Washington, d. c. 9. When our
boy was about l6 months old he broke
out with rash which was thought TO
be measles. In few days he had
swelling on the left side of his neck
and it was decided to be mumps. lie
was given medical attendance for
about three weeks when the doctor
said it was scrofllla and ordered a
salye. He wanted to lance the sore,
but [ would not let him and continued
giving him medicine for about four
months when the bunch broke in two
places and became running sore.
Three doctors said it was scrofula and
each ordered blood medicine. a
neighbor told me of a case somewhat
like our baby's which was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla. decided to
give it to my boy and in short while
bis health improved and his neck
healed so nicely that ] stopped giving
him the medicine. The sore broke
out again, however, whereupon ] again
gave him Hoods Sarsaparilla and its

campaign. 1t was impossible to secure
exact information on this subject. But
it is stated that the whole subject is to
come before the Cabinet meeting to-
morrow, when the course to be pursued
by the United States Government will
be determined. AS ii. is felt to be the
part of sound policy to endeavor to
check further military operations upon
a helpless people, ii is probable that the
Cabinet meeting will result i'm an effort
by the State Department to ascertain
what support it can secure for dis
sent from the German program. 1t is
stated unequivocally by competent au-
thority that the American military
forces, will under no circumstances per-
ticipate with the Germans in the pro-
posed expedition. and although it can
not be learned that General Chaffee has
yet received his instructions to that
effect, he undoubtedly will have them
very shortly.
Tt is realized to be extremely desir-
able to avoid offending German pride in
this matter, but 1t is hoped that by an
appeal to the conservative fonces of the
empire made not by the United States
Government alone, but with powerful
seconds in the shape of Russia and per-
haps Japan, the German Government
will be brought to see that good policy
and good faith both will be best served
by avoiding interferenceS with the peace
negotiate at this stage. The United
States Government stands steadfastly
by the principles laid down i'll Secre-
tary Hays letter of July 3rd last, and
as it secures the adhesion of all the in
terested powers to that statement of
principles, it is hopeful that by calling
attention to proposed infractions these
may be prevented.

manY'S Program.
(By the Associa Ted Press.)


Washington, Feb. 1S-The United
States Government is facing serious
crisis in China. owing 20 the announce
ment of the purpose of Field Marshal
offensive campaign, General Chaffee has
been invited to join in the expedition,
which is to be naaholixsd on a larger
sca1e~tfiah anything attempted in China
since the original march to PelSin. The
general so informed the War Depart
ment today, but officials Of the State
Department have not been advised Of
the situation.
This German movement is viewed
with absolute dismay here, for it is
feared that it requires an immediate
decision by the United States Govern
ment upon it's whole line of policy to-
ward the Chinese question. General
Chaffee will be told that he is not to
participate in this campaign. He has
been keeping the American forces in
Pekin ever since the city was pacified
simply as a legation guard, and the
German Government is fully aware. that
ly deprived the American contingent in
China of it's offensive military charac-
ter, by Withdrawing from control Of
Count Won Waldersee, in order to has
ten peace negotiations and prevent. so
far as it could, the continuance of mill
tary movements against the Chinese.
which were at once unnecessary and
baneful in their effect upon the peace
movement. So our Government not
having changed it's policy, cannot do
otherwise than cause General Chaffee
20 refrain from any participation in
hostile military movements, so long as
the present peaceful conditions con-
tinue.
But another very serious point under
consideration is not whether Chaifee
shall join the German Government, but
whether it is not the duty of our Gov
eminent to exercise all proper efforts to
dissuade the German Government from
undertaking this campaign.
The Chinese Government is unfortu-
nately delaying the peace negotiations
i'm an exasperating fashion and is not
responding in a proper spirit to the ef-
forts of the United States Government.
Word has just come from Minister Con-
ger which confirms the press adyiceS
relative to the Chinese declination TO ac-
cede to the demands of the ministers in
the matter OF capital punishment of the
leaders implicated i'll the Boxer move
ment.
This message implied that the Chi
nese Government has agreed to exile
Princes Tuan and Ian without capital
sentences; to recommend suicide to
Prince Chwang: death for Yu Hsien,
Chao Chi. Chao; for Wing Men, impris-
onment and degradation from office and
some punishment not yet determined
for Chi Hsiu and Hsiu Cheng Yu. 1t Is
stated that an edict already has been
issued to execute these sentences ac-
oordingly.
A visit from the Japanese Minister to
the State Department served to give
,olor to the story that our Government

Inc other powers party to the Chinese
question will endorse this proposed
