GERM1NY'S AITITUD 4.
Further Report of Her Conduct in
 Spanish War Trouble.

Berlin, Feb. 7.--The foreign office was informed to-day that the Associated Press had issued for publication the text of the replies of all the European courts, except that of Germany, to the request of Spain for concerted action by the powers sent out March 25, 1898, from Madrid. The correspondent asked for the text of the German answer to this request. The foreign office said that the answer of the German gov ernment was made orally by the Ger man ambassador at Madrid. This answer was that Germany could not take the initiative and must await the action of the other powers. Subse- uuent events made further answer unnecessary.
 The foreign office called attention to cablegrams from Washington saying that the British embassy there admits making a second proposal April 14, lS9S, but with no evil intentions against the United States. The foreign office add ed "We fully recognize the fact that England had no evil intentions against the United States. The German gov- ernment, far from imputing such inten- tions, on the other hand, and simply upon the basis of the documents in the case, protests against London imputing (Andichten) to us intentions we never had"

Proves by Most Recent Government Re- ports That There Are Only 3,72O Ger mans im All tho Colonies, Including Officials, Etc. --The Colonial Trade and Appropriations.

Berlin, Feb. 7.Herr Richter, the radical leader in the Reichstag, ana lyzing the most recent government re- port concerning the colonies, finds that there are only 3,720 Germans in all the colonies, including officials, officers, mis- sionaries, women and children. He proves from the budget of 1901 that every German colonist costs the ernpire .6, ,000 marks year. While the total col- orlial trade has increased during the last five years from 11,0O0, 900 marks to 25, ,0O0, ,00O marks, the colonial appropr1a- tions during the same length of time have increased from slightly more than seven million to nineteen million marks The increase in exports to the colonies is chiefly due to government works, mill itary supplies, etc.
 The bull election returns show that 17,S4S chizens of the United States were then residing in Germany, an increase in five years of 2,o60.

THE OLD WAY
Of Treating Stomach Trouble and
Indigestion, a Barbarous and
Useless One.

We say the old way, but really it is the
common and usual one at the present time
and many dyspeptics, and physicians as
well, consider the first step in attempting
to cure indigestion is to diet, either by
selecting certain food and rejecting others
or to greatly diminish the quantity Of food
usually taken.
In other words, the starvation plan is
by many supposed to be the first essential
in the cure Of weak digestion.
The almost certain failure Of the starva-
ton cure for stomach trouble has been
proven time and again, but still the usual
advice, when dyspepsia makes its appear
ance. is course of dieting.
All this is radically wrong. It is foolish
and unscientific to recommend dieting or
starvation to a person suffering from dys-
pepsia, because indigestion itself staryes
every organ and every nerve and fiber in
the body.
What is needed is abundant nutrition,
not less, and this means plenty Of good.
wholesome. well-cooked food and some nat
ural digestive to assist the weak stomach
to digest it.
>. This is exactly. the purpose for which
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are adapted,
and this is the way they cure the worst
cases of stomach trouble
The patient eats plenty Of wholesome
food, and Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets d.
gest it for him.
And this is in accordance with nature
and common sense, because in this way
the whole system is nOurished and the
overworked stomach rested, because the
tablets will eigest the food, whether the
stomach worHs or not. One of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets will digest 1900 grains
Of meat, eggs and similar food
Any druggist will tell you that Stuart's
DyspepsN Tablets is remedy of extraor-
d,nary value and probably is the purest
and safest remedy for stomach troubles.
No person suffering from poor digestion
and lack Of appetite can fail to be i'm.
mediately and permanently benefited IL
they would make it practice to take one
or two Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after
each meal.

OUR COLORS.
The One Flag, the Great Flag, the Flag for
Me and You.

Commissioner Macfarland is true blue,
all-wool and yard wide on the flag.
There was some discussion as to the prop
er binding for the Souvenir Book, and sew
eral of the Executive Committee suggest
ed the District COlors, whatever they
might be, and Chairman Warner was re-
guested to find out what the District COL
ors were. In his letter, Mr.. Warner sug-
gested that as the District had no flag.
this might be good time to adopt one.
In reply, Commissioner Macfarland
wrote:
Il have your favor of Sept. 2. The
American flag is the flag Of the District
OF Columbia. 1t has never had any 9TH
er. The States have State flags, some
OF which are very much older than the
United States flag. But the National flag
seems to me all sufficient for the National
Capital, which is its special home. Peo-
pie of the District have never been even
tempted to divide allegiance between two
hags, and no such temptation should ever
be offered.
''The colors Of the District of Colum.
bia have never been officially determined
but think they should be red. white and
blue. The seal Of the District of Co
lumbla, with its appropriate motto, Jus
titia Omnibus "a copy of which inclose).
is that adopted by the first Government
of the District of Columbia in 1871. and
was made necessary by the fact that the
Government of the District of Columbia
Is separate entity and not part of the
Government of the United States, and
therefore could not use the seal Of the
Government OF the United States"

The Court of Honor.

The plans for the Court of Honor and
Grand Stands to be erected in front Of the
White House have been completed, and
the work of construction will now begin.
They call for five stands, two on the north
side Of the Avenue, situated between the
statues Of Lafayette and Rochambeau.
two on the south side between the semi,
circular driveway in front Of the White
House and the avenues east and wesf of
the White House Grounds, and one long
stand covering the distance between the
two ends of the driveway. These stands
will have seating capacity of about 5000
persons. Fifteen hundred Of them are TO
be in the Presidents stand, which is re.
served for the general officers of the G.
A. Il. The remaining $500 will be for
sale. Tho Presidents stand will be stu
ated between the Lafayette monument and
the garden in front OF the Jackson monu
ment. The drawings provide for struc-
lures Of adapted Greek architecture along
colonial lines. The fronts of the stands
excepting the one directly before the
White House, will be peristylic in effect.
made up OF a long line of Ionic columns
connected at the base with a Grecian bal,
ustrade. Each stand will be decorated
with appropriate colors under the roofs
and garlands and evergreens along the line
of pillars. The designs exhibited indicate
that the Court of Honor will be one of the
most beautiful and imposing temporary
structures ever erected in Washington.
