Manila, Feb. 25.-A largely attended
meeting was held yesterday morning
in the Tondo ward of Manila under
the auspices of the Evangelical church,
and a great open-air gathering in fur
therance of Professionalism was held
yesterday afternoon at Pasay.
Rev. +. Rodgers, of the local staff of

week.
Salamanca, the native Methodist
preacher who was arrested at Cayite
a month ago, has not yet been tried.
The Methodists assert that he will be
completely indicated. They say the
charge that he is an insurgent is a
fabrication of hostile friars, and they
are anxious to have the charges
against him Investigated.
Twenty insurgents were captured
by a detachment Of native scouts near
Polo, in the Province of Bulacan.
There are unveriied rumors in cir
culation here that Gen. Torres has
surrendered.

Judge Hazen has ignored a letter,

the judge. One, from Bunker Hill,
Kas., says a committee of so will adj

from a woman in Douglass, Mich,

OF CHINA.
Tho Imperial Edict Regarding Punish.
meuts Is Accepted as SatisYac-
tory by the Powers.

Pekin, Feb. 25.-The full text of the
imperial edict regarding punishment
has been sen to the ministers of the
powers. 1t is identical with the un-
official report of the context of the
contents of the edict cabled to the
press. The ministers say that there
is a little confusion with reference to
strangulation and suicide, but that
this is not important.
Ii Hung Chang received a bulletin
announcing the sentences which
could be best carried into effect by
the board of punishment, and he re
quested the japanese to deliver Wing
Men and Chao Shu Chiao in order that
the sentences in their cases might be
executed yesterday in conformity with
the edict; but the Japanese considered
the notice too short, and have de-
layed the enforcement of the penal
ties until Tuesday in order tina the
ministers of the powers might send
representatives as they desire. 1t is
also intended to guard the men at the
place of execution, so as to prevent
suicide or escape.
When official confirmation, duly GER
titled by high officers of state, of the
sentences of death upon the others
shall have been received and these two
have been executed, China will have
practically complied with the terms
demanded by the powers, as she has
already agreed to issue edicts pre-
pared by the ministers of the powers
for the cessation of examinations and
regarding the responsibility of vice.
roys and governors.
Prince Chun, the emperor's brother,
will soon go to Berlin to express
China's regrets for the murder of
Baron Won Ketteler. He says China
has now accepted to the uttermost
and also performed everything re-
CURED by the powers, except the pay
ment of the indemnities, the amount
of which has not been decided. He
thinks arrangements should be made
for evacuation of Pekin in order to
enable the court to return. He says
he believes no nation in history ever
complied with g series of terms more
quickly and more completely.
No official announcement has been
made of the abandonment of the pro-
posed expedition into the interior, but
it is not likely that any further prep
arations will be made. The foreign
voys feel that the proposal was a
~masterstroke and caused the settle
ment of what might have been a pro-
tracted affair.
The ministers of the powers regard
the punishment edict satisfactory.
Chin oiu, former grand secretary, and
Hsu Cheng Yu, son of the notorious
hsu Tung, will be publicly executed
in Pekin Tuesday.
An edict has been promulgated sus-
pending examinations at all points
which were the scenes of outrages
upon foreigners.

AS a result of the changeable eli
mate, catarrh has become n of the
most prevalent and universal diseases
known to man. Nearly one-third of
the people of the United States are
afflicted with catarrh in some of its
many phases and stages. Add to this
the fact that catarrh rapidly tends to
become fixed or chronic, also the fur
Their fact that it is capable of producing
a great many other diseases, and we
begin to realize the true nature of this
dread disease.
So formidable has catarrh become
that in every city or town of any size
numerous doctors are to be found who
make the treatment of catarrh a spe-
cialty. OF course a great deal of good
is accomplished in this way, but as
yet a comparatively small number of
the people can avail themselves of this
treatment because of the great expense
necessarily attached to it.

To all such people DIR. Hartman's
remedy. Peruna, comes as a great boon.
Not only is it more successful in cur
ing catarrh than the treatment of the
catarrh specialists, but it is within the
reach of every person in this land.
Peruna can be bought at any drug store,
and is a remedy without equal for
catarrh in all forms, coughs, colds, bron-
chitis, consumption, and all climatic
diseases of winter.
Peruna is not a guess, nor an expert
ment; it is an absolute, scientific GER
tainty. Peruna cures catarrh wherever
located, Peruna has no substitutes
no rivals. Insist upon having Peruna.
Let no one persuade you that some 9TH
er remedy will do nearly as well. There
is no other systemic remedy for catarrh
but Peruna.
