Cruisers.


Washington, Jan. 22.-The board of
naval construction has completed the re-
vision of the specifications of the battle
slips with view to the bringing Of the
cost within the figures of the bidders. The
electric light plants have been retained in
the specifications, but by making numer-
Gus small cuts and reducing the fund re-
served from the total cost of the snip on
account of inspection the desired result has
been obtained and President Olcott and
Judge Payson, representing both the New
port News and Bath companies, are pre-
pared to accept the contracts for the ships
on the board terms.
Moran Bros. of Seattle already have
verbally notified Secretary Long of their
purpose to accept the award in their case,
30 that although some technicalites ;emain
to be disposed of in connection with their
contracts. the navy department practically
has concluded the task of allottirp the
greatest contract for naval construction
work ever let in the history of the Ameri-
can navy. If congress adopts the depart
ment's suggestion for construction in the
, pending navy bill and provides for four
new battleshps and two armored cruisers
it is the purpose OF the navy depai iment
not to prepare new plans, but to invite bids
upon the plans used for the ships Just
contracted for. In this case long step
will be taken toward recovering the ground
lost during the past year.
| The next step in the matter of construc-
ton is the matter of opening the proposals
! for the building of six cruisers on the i'm
proved olympia type, which is to take
place February |. This vessel being of a
smaller pattern than the big ships il is the
expectation of the department that some
of the smaller building concerns and those

awards for bittleships and armored cIuis.

ity, for it is doubtful if the large concerns

SORES AND
ULCERS.

Sores and Ulcers never become chronic
unless the blood is in poor condition - is
sluggish, weak and unable to throw off
the poisons that accumulate in it. The
system must be relieved of the unhealthy
matter through the sore, and great danger
to life would follow should it heal before
the blood has been made pure and healthy
and allimpurities eliminated from the sys-
TEN. SIS. begins the cure by first cleans
ing and invigorating the blood, building
up the general health and removing from
the system A CONSTANT DRAIN
effetematter' UPON THE SYSTEM.
When this has been accomplished the dis
charge gradually ceases, and the sore or
ulcer heals. 1t is the tendency of these old
indolent sores to grow worse and worse,
and eventually to destroy the bones. Local
applications, while soothing and to some
extent alleviate pain, cannot reach the seat
of the trouble. SIS. S. does, and no matter
how apparently hopeless your condition,
even though your constitution has broken
down, it will bring relief when nothing
else can. 1t supplies the rich, pure blood
necessary to heal the sore and nourish
the debilitated, diseased body.
