BRUSSELS, April 15.-Belgium is
under military rule, and upon the
faithfulness of the army depends the
stability of the monarchy.
Further riots are expected when the
orders of the Socialist committee for a
general strike are Sbcyed.
Thirty-five thousand soldiers are now
on guard in the provinces. n large
percentage of these are massed i'll
Charleroi. Bcdrange and Liege. where
the miners went on Il strike yesterday.
At Charleroi $4,000 out of the 10000
coal miners have already stopped
work
From Mons troops have started for
different points in the Borinage dis
trict, in the province of Hainault, to
the south of Mons.
At Cuesmcs, IL town in the province
of IIainault three miles south of Mons,
5000 strikers assembled around the
state arsenal with the object of stop
ping work.
The day passed here in perfect tran
guilty. Several meetings We're held
I'm the suburbs during the evening. NJ.
ers made violent speeches in the vicin-
ity of the Mason du Peuple, but order
was maintained. This fact was main
ly due to the conspicuous absence of
the police. especially the gendarmery,
whose excess of zeal has been the chief
cause of collisions during the past few
days.
.;,-ta Il I'd in,
around the Maison du Peuple, and
their sensible attitude kept the crowds
In good humor.
Dispatches received here from the
mining and industrial regions indicate
the existence of serious situation
with regard to the strike. This has
even extended to the textile workers
at Client. Except from Huy no re
ports of grave disturbances have been
received At IIuy the striking quarry
men had an encounter with the gen
darmcs, in which several men on both
sides were injured. One gendarme
was fatally wounded, and another es-
capped by swimming the river.
1t now develops that the first out
break of violence was coincident with
an attempt that was to be made on
the life of the king ut Biarritz. The
plot was frustrated by his return to
Brussels earlier than was anticipated.

MUNICIPAL PROGRESS.
Signs which Indicate the Advance
ment of the Public Good.

the
The Chicago city council has passed
an ordinance requiring half n dozen
trunk line railroads to elevate their
tracks The work will extend through
six years ana will cost 100000. says
the ST. Louis Post Dispatch.
The great obstacle to municipal prog
ress everywhere is the difficulty in
forcing franchised corporations to keep
pace with the demands of public order
and security But this is being gradu-
ally accomplished without injustice or
disregard of any interest, and the next
few years will doubtless witness i'm
provement in ak directions. 1t is a
work of reconciliation. not of aggres-
sion. and cannot but result in good.
The distinguishing mark of the time
is progress rather than reform; not n
restoration of old practices. but pro-
gressive adoption of new ones as the
need of them appears.
In municipal affairs especially pop
ular interest was never so alert and
intelligent. From grade crossings TO
shade trees public attention is directed
to the city and its right management.
and in spite of politicians and special
private interests the public good is add
vancing. This is plain, not only in Bos-
ton. Cleveland and Chicago. but in st.

THE GARBAGE EVIL.
How the Suburbs of n City Arc Usu-
ally Neglected.


There is great field for immediate
work in the identifying of the city by
the suppression of the unsightly OBJ
jects which give so many parts Of it
chaotic and ugly look. The suburbs of
a city have always gone to extremes of
elegance or ugliness. At one extreme is
the fashionable residence suburb. at
the other that dreadful No Mans Land
where ashes and tomato cans run riot
and the advertiser does his direct
work. AS the city has increased in
population this squalid side of its life,
shamefacedly pushed half out of sight,
has grown in offensiveness. There IS
need of a better system, of closer
watch on the waste land. of Il careful
supervision of the disposition of ref
use. The work is done too carelessly.
Fire, the great purifying agent, is not
used freely enough.
The scavenger work of a city ought
to he done as neatly as the work of
well ordered household. What can be
burned should De reduced to ashes and
the rest disposed of as thoroughly as
may be. Private collections of tomato
cans and bottles along the roadside are
unspeakably shiftless. The disposition
of such refuse should be in the hands
of responsible agents.
Where nature is left alone she pro-
vides the city with natural park of
limitless extent, fresh. green and beau
tiful. and city should run into country
gently and tremendously. with no hid
eous crcumvallent rampant of cans
and bottles and discarded umbrellas
and bicycles to show that only man is
vile

Inhalation of Trees.

The mutilation of trees by trolley
and telephone companies is an unpar-
donable outrage, says the Philadelphia
Times. When street trees belong to
the city, dedicated. as it were, to a pub
lie use, no other public use can proper
~ be allowed to interfere with them
Private owners seem. to be helpless
against corporations armed with the
city's license, but the city can and will
protect its own property. Let the city
take the trees and command all corpo-
rations having street privileges to so
use those privileges as to spare the
trees. touching not single bough.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, AS they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that Is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness Is caused
by an infiamed condition of the mucous
lining of the eustachian tube. When this tube
gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when ii is entirely
closed deafness Is the result. and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to Its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh. which is nothing
but an inhamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.

case OF deafness Caused oy catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send
