Washington, March 1-Carrying
out the policy inaugurated by the
State department when it changed
it's military force in China into lega-
ton guard, the war department has
sent orders to Gen. Cbbsf>e to still
further reduce bis force. The cen
eral has now under his command
about 1900 men composed Of troops
TX. L. and NJ. Sikh Uaised States
cavalry, Battery T Fifth artillery,
and the Ninth infantry.
Considerable discretion was left to
Gen. Chafee in the election ct the
troops TO remain and it is assumed
at the department that the Pekln
dispatches announcing that these
consist Of two companies oftbe Nioth
Infantry under Maj Robertson, is
correct. II the other powers repre-
sented at Pekin can be induced to
follow this policy, it is hoped that a
long step will have been effected TO-
ward the restoration OF normal con-
ditiors at Pekin. II is believed at
the war department that tie troops
cannot be brought away from Pskin
before the ice is clared out Of the Pei
river which is usually late in March.
The troops are tc 60 to Manila, to re-
place volunteers.
L. is understood at the war depart
ment that Gen. Cnafee who will leave
Pekin with these troops is to relieve

mand in tie Philippines.

Remarkable Cures of rheumatism.

From the Vindicator, R1thertordton, n. G.
The editor Of the Vindicator has
had occasion to test the efficacy of
Chamberlain's Pain Balm twice with
the most remarkable results in each
case. First, with rheumatism in the
shoulder from which he suffered ex-
cruciating pain for ten days, which
was relieved with two applications Of
Pain Balm, rubbing th' parts sfiiicted
and realizing instant benefit and en-
tire relief il a very short time.
Second, in rheumatism in thigh joint,
almost prostrating him with severe
pain, which was relieved by two ap-
plications, with the linimeut on retir-
ing at night, and getting up free
from pain. For sale by J. E Kauf-

Separate Towels for Children.

Two or more children should not

Each child should have a separate
one and be taught to regard II as
personal property. Towels may be
bought with initials woven in them,
which makes it easy for the owner to
distinguish lis own. Diseases Of
the eye and skin diseases are easily
communicated by the indisoriminate
use of the same towel By different
persons. If carefulness in this
matter be inculcated in childhood, it
may save much suffering.
