 Gentlemen:-I am glad to say that s. s. 8. has cured me of Rheumatism. About two years ago I suffered from Rheumatism in my knees and feet, my ankles swelling so that could not put on my shoes. This continued for several months, during which time was applying liniments and going by my physician's directions, but derived no benefit. I was told of 8. 8. s. and tried it. I immedi- ately got relief, and continued the medicine until was entirely well.

FOR CIVIL GOVERNMENT
PLANS TO MAKE CHANGE IN
 THE PHILIPPINES.
Census of the Archipelago Will Fol- low the Presidential Proclama- ton of July 4th-To Re-
 duce Military Force.

Washington, July 2.-AChairman Cooper of the House Committee on Insular Af- fairs. says steps will be taken at once to put the Philippine government mill in operation.
 "The first step said Mir. Cooper to- day. will be the transfer of authority from the military to civil officers except in the Moro country, where there is some lingering disorder. The transfer will be accomplished by a presidential proclama- tion which, 1t is understood. will be is sued July {. Besides turning over the authority to the civil offices. the move will permit reduction of military force on the Island. The next step will be to take the census as provided by the act. Governor Taft told me this work would begin as soon as he reached Manila. His plan is to have the work done as far as possible by Filipinos and the Commission will get up their own census system.
 "As to the gen1ral effect of the bill we have just enacted added Mir. Cooper, "I share the view of Governor Taft. who said that if this bill became a. law we than we do of Porto Rico and the Phil ippine problem would disappear
 MT. Cooper has received the following telegram from President Jacob Schurman of Cornell. who was at the head of the first Philippine Commissions:
 Cordial congratulations on your sple1- did victory in securing 8 legislative as- sembly for the Filipinos. Our Commits sioners need it. Your bill shows states manship of the highest order. Filipinos will bless you forever"

cAMBoN. MAY GO.
French Amassador at Washington
 Nav Be Transferred.

Washington. July 2.-The officials of the French embassy here are not disposed to make any statement in regard to the intimation conveyed in a press despatch from Paris today that M. Jules Cam bon. the French Ambassador at Wash ington. may be transferred to the Berlin Embassy, as result of d contemplated shift in the French diplomatic service. The Ambassador himself has left Wash ington, and was due to arrive in Paris today.
 Nevertheless it is understood that such a transfer Is we'll in the range of pos- sibility. The present incumbent of the Berlin post is the Marquis of Noailles, who was Minister to Washington from 1871 to 1873. and who formerly served at Constantinople. The Marquis is nearly eighty years of age, and for some time it has been expected that on account of his advanced age he would relinquish his post at the German capital, making transfers and promotions necessary to fill the eight embassies, of the French service.
 M. Cambon was accredited to Washing ton in 1S9s and has had an unusually fine record of service at Washington. His departure would be & scource of much regret among his official and social friends here.

Largely Repetition of Functions of
 the Day Before.

EVICTION OF TENANTS
IRISH TROUBLES BROUGHT UP
 IN COMMONS.
Secretary wyndham Says His Ad- vice to the Renters is to Pay up-Mr. Russell Speaks
 Against Landlord.

London, July 2.-A long and heated de- bate on the Irish land question was pre- cipitated in the House of Commons to- night.
 r. W. Russel, Liberal, moved the ad- journment of the House to discuss the pending evictions from the estate of Lord DeFreyne in Roscommon County. That nohleAnan recently had writs issued against several members of the Irish Parliamentary Party whom he charged with conspiracy.
 Mir. Russell declared that unless the Government intervened to prevent these evictions, an era of turmoil would be in ausurated in the west of Ireland. where there was trouble enough already. lie satd he had visited the DeFreyne prop erty three times, and that he was thor oughly convinced of injustice under which the tenants suffered. The people there were the poorest of the poor. He believed one word from Mir. Wyndham. the Chief Secretary for Ireland, would settle the whole trouble. and he. thought the reduc- ton of rents collected on the estate by 3S per cent would not be excessive.
 MT. Wyndham replied with some asper- ity that he was surprised to find Mir. Rus sell siding against law and order. The rents from the DeFreyne estate, he said, had been reduced g per cent in the past twenty years. and he knew that some of the organizers were making money out of the agitation. His advice to the ten- ants was to pay up. This statement was greeted with groans from the House.
 Hundreds had paid up, said Mir Wynd- ham, and this remark was received with cheass. Many more would like to pay up, the Chief Secretary added, but they were intimidated. MT. Wyndham said it was impossible to carry out the land purchase scheme in Ireland when it was interrupt ed by agitators who desired to- make government there impossible.

A REMARKABLE RECORD.
Not a Railroad in the Hands of a
 Receiver.

Chicago. III. July 2.-The Railway Age tomorrow will say:
 The year 1902 has so far been the most remarkable period in fifty years of rail- way history in respect to insolvencies and receiverships. Since January 1, only one railway, the New York and Pennsyi- vania. 52 miles long, has been in the hands of a receiver. and that one broke all previous records for brevity' of stay, the appointment having been made in February and the road having been sold under foreclosure and started for re-or- ganization in May. The receivership thus covered the short season of four months.
 The Railway Age. therefore for the first time in it's history. cannot report a rail- way for which a receiver has been ap- pointed and continued in the current six months. During the twenty-sx and one half years in which the record has been kept, it shows the appointment of receiv- CTS for 639 roads. covering IA, 400 miles of lines, and representing stocks and bonds aggregating the vast sum of $6,- 29l, ,397, 900. In a single year. lS93 no less than "A roads went into bankruptcy with 29,S40 miles and s17Sf 100000 of stocks and bonds. But since that year of greatest financial calamity failures have rapidly decreased.

 King Edward demanded full account. of the review and the formal report mado by the Prince of Wales was suppIemented by a personal narrative of the Queen. Hiiz majesty dictated a letter to the Duke of Cannaught commanding him to cofupli- ment the Colonial troops upon their ex- cellent appearance and to thank them for their expressions of loyalty and syn- pathy which he had heard with pIeasatrs in the sick room.
 King Edward was somewhat disap~ pointed that he was not able to see the march past of the troops. He had hoped this would be possible from an Invalid couch In a window of the palace. but th9 doctors were unwilling that he should risk this exposure and excitement. and his majesty had to content himself with hearing the troops without seeing them.
 At late hour tonight the Kings ifn- prcvement continues. 1t was announced that he had partaken of Il fairly good dinner and smoked cigar.
 The Prince and Princess of Wales gave a brilliant dinner at York House tonight in honor of the visiting Indian princes.

Many of the doctors wore their academic robes A lltany was sung In the procession. the doctors joining in the singing.
