Tne present condition Of the stage out

OF frank newspaper criticism are topics

So says Mrs. Josie Irwin, of
325 So. College ST., Nashville,
Tenn, of Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.

Never in the history Of medicine has
the demand for one particular remedy
for female diseases equalied that at
tanned by Lydia f. Pinkham'S
Vegetable Compound, and never
during the lifetime of this wonderful
medicine has the demand for it been
so great as it is to-day.
From the Atlantic TO the Pacific,
and throughout the length and breadth
of this great continent come the glad
tidings OF woman's sufferings reEeved
by it, and thousands upon thousands
of letters are pouring N from grateful
women saying that it viii and posi-
lively does cure the worst forms OF
female complaints.
Mrs. Pinkham invites all wO-
men who are puzzled about
their health to write her at Lynn,
Mass, for advice. Such corre-
spOndcnce is seen by women only,
and no charge is made.

Rufino whom Ryan disciplined. was as
much a menace in Mindanao as Lukban
in Samar or Malvar in Luzon General
Jos. P. Sanger, who reviewed the case
of Ryan, practically acquitted Ryan of
all charges. During the testimony
Lieutenant Elliott of the Thirtieth in
fantry said that each town in Mindanao
had band of assassins. whose duty it
was to kill any one holding communi-
cations with the Americans.
The celebrated Gardner investigation
had come to an end at the time the last
military left Manila and it is stated that
the record and report on the case will be
forwarded to Washington for considera-
ton. General Chaffee would ordinarily
be the reviewing authority but his last
reports to the war department were to
the effect that he would review the case
if possible within the time he had at his
disposal IIe then he'd under considera-
ton the y camp-ign which was oc-
cupying his time, and he has probably
| now followed the Gardner papers to this
city.
An account of the doingh of Captain J.
J. Pershing of the Fifteenth cavalry,
who is just now figuring in the disturb
ed districts of Mindanao states that he
had proved diplomat with a majority
of the Moros, but that nothing could be
done with the Moros in the Bacolod dis
trict. One of the sultans said to Cap
tain Pershing:
THE Bacolod Moros have deceived
you in saying they wanted to be friends,
as know many of them are lying along
the road waiting to take the Ameri-
cans"
Captain Pershing undertook to ascer-
tain the condition of Baco1od, and was
Informed by the sultan of Bacayun that
there were three forts, all of which were
strong. The people had been strength
ening them by lining them inside and
out with stone, so that the projectives
of the Americans could not penetrate.
| He said that Bacolod had 300 men but
| If the Americans went there the Moros
adjacent would assist in the defense.
Other native chiefs informed Captain
Pershing that the sultan of Bacolod
would kill them (the natives) if he knew
they had been on friendly terms with
| the Americans.
The paper of the latest date states
| that many troops were being sent to
| Mindanao and that it was the evident
| intention of the government to occupy
| the country around Lake LanaO, which
would require a considerable number.
| 1t is said that the health conditions in
this region were perfect and that SOL
| diers could stay in such a climate and
! enjoy all the delights of Camp Mead, Pa.
The board of health of the city OF
| Manila bad decided to rid the city OF
| infection. The cholera, which has been
raging in that city, is responsible for
| the determination and every unsanitary
| building is to be destroyed An estl-
mate is made that it may cost nearly
| half a million dollars to carry out this
| plan. 1t is said there is cla sh between
| the Americans and F'ilipinos in handling
health officers are said to be more or
| less a failure, and it is therefore prob

CHANGE TO STEAM BARGES.
Cascoes Will Be RELOCATED to the
Canals in the Philippines.

Washington, Aug. 20.-Manila news
papers received on the incoming Philip
pine mail at the war department con-
tain information concerning affairs in
the islands.
1t is reported that the cascoes which
have been used SO extensively in the
Philippines as lighters are to give way
to steam barges and be themselves rele-
gated to the canals. This change, it is
said, marks a new era in the history of
ighterage in the islands Cascoes fig
ured in the last transport scandal in
the archipelago, it being alleged that
their tonnage was exaggerated grossly
for dishonest purposes. The new steam
barges which supersede them were built
at Cleveland and at New York.
Lieutenant Hiskman, of the First
cavalry is to be the next officer subject
to court martial. He is of the men
against whom Major Cornelius Gardner
made charges. One Of these charges
is that Hiskman practiced medicine
without a license, the specification be-
ing that he admitted stimulants to ma
tives in the province of Tayabas.
The papers are full of reports of the
trail of Captain Ryan, who was charged
with admitting the water cure. Ryan
was defended by Major Glenn who had
been under similar charges. Captain
Ryan in. his own defense used this Ian
guage:
Did my sticking the heads of these
treacherous, lying native. office holders
into a pail of water, thereby washing
away an impeachment in their speech.
constitute a greater crime than treason
against the flag and soldiers who de-
fend it?'
Ryan was criticised by General Chat
fee on account Of report he made re-
garding Judge Rhode but General
Davis, who reviewed the report, agreed
with the main facts as presented by
Captain Ryan's sneers at Judge Rhode
Captain Ryan. He said he regretted
and his defiant attitude toward General
Chaffee- OF the conditions in Misimas

view was Captain Ryan. He said that

STRUCK TROLLEY POLE.
Car Left Track. Resulting in In
jury to All the Passengers.

New York, Aug 20-One of the men
injured in a trolley accident last nlght
on Jerome avenue, borough OF the
Bronx, died early this morning A caro-
in one of his pockets bore the name OF
f. w. Keys, and it is supposed that was
his name. A policeman named J. n.
Palmer lies unconscious in the Fordham
hospital. His skull is fractured and ne
will probably die. The other injured
persons We're reported to be doing well
today.
The car was an open one of the Union
railway line and the accident occurred
in Jerome avenue at Moshula parkway.
The car ran down long hill, approach
ing the parkway and as it neared the
bottom of the hill it left the track and
struck an iron trolley pole. The force
of the crash against the pole caused the
car to turn over on its side. All the
passengers were stunned and nearly all
were more or less injured.

Another cold wet week with great
excess of cloudiness. The daily av-
erage temperature was about
twelve degrees below normal,
and the rainfall was excessive in
all parts of the state. Field work
has been practically only on the up
lands from two to three days dur
ing the week. Crops are holding
their own remarkably we'll under
these unfavorable conditions. In
the southern districts some of the
early planted corn has been laid by
in good order, but the bulk of the
crop in the state is considerably be-
low the average for July l. With
normal conditions the balance of
the season the crop may be brought
up to the average despite the loss
of acreage in the flooded district.
The oat crop is standing up re-
markably and in portions of the
state promises good crop. All
small grain crops need dry weather
and sunshine for filling and ripen-
ing. Considerable clover hay has
been cut but not much of it has
been saved. The season has been
very favorable thus far for mead
ows and pastures, and especially
new seeding of grasses. Potatoes
and all garden truck are doing re-
markedly we'll. The apple orchards
