DR.. Hartman. the Famous Gynecologist

Treat Women Free During the Sum.
mer Months.

America is the land of nervous
women. The great majority OF nerv-
Gus women are so because they are suf-
fering from some form of female dis
ease. By far the greatest number OF
female troubles are caused by catarrh.
Women afflicted with pelvic catarrh
despair of recovery. Female trouble
is SO common, so prevalent, that they
accept it as almost inevitable. The
greatest obstacle in the way OF recov-
ery is that they do not understand
that it is catarrh which is. the source
of their illness. In female complaint,
ninety-nine cases out of one hundred
are nothing but catarrh. Peruna cures
catarrh wherever located.

OFF GO THEIR HEADS.
Leaders OF the Chinese Who Destroyed
British and American Missions Suffer
the Customary Penalty.

Pekin, June 2s.-The viceroy Of the
province of Szeh-Chuan has notified
the government that the American
and British mission buildings at Tien
Ku Chao have been destroyed by a
mob and that a missionary has been
murdered. His name and nationality
were not reported. An imperial edict
Just issued deprives the local magis-
trate of Tien Ku Chao of his rank
and orders the determination of the
rioters. Several of the leaders of the
outbreak are reported to have been
beheaded. Apparently this was an
anti-idemnity rising, like those which
have occurred elsewhere in China.

The Reconsideration Experience Of
an English Soldier Mt the Siege
Of Ladysmith.

When the Beers besieged Ladysmith
they permitted a "camp of refuge" and
field hospital to be established at In
tomb, a few miles distant. Here the
noncombatants were gathered. And
to the hospital, writes George Lynch
in the London Daily Express, came
every morning the train from Lady
smith, bearing its burden of,sick and
wounded.
To the jewellers at Intombi that train
brought the history of the siege, the
daily bulletin written in blood and dis
ease. Women who had husbands and
brothers and sons in Ladysmith crowd
ed round it always to see what news
it brought, and went away with a sigh
of respite and relief when it carried
nothing for them.
And yet, after fashion, these wom-
en- at Intombi were more fortunate
than the men in Ladysmith, since they
could learn from the new arrivals how
their loved ones Jared. But meHwere
not allowed to go backward and for
ward to Intombi; those who went had
to remain: and somehow or other little
or no news seemed to reach the garri-
son.
In the dearth Of news one man in
Ladysmith had arranged that twice a
week, when he could get Off duty, his
wife in Intombi should go at ~ o'clock
and stand in front of a big marquee
where he could see her through the
ships telescope at the AZ battery.
She went there regularly with her
child, and straining her eyes toward
that sandbagged point above Convent
hill, sometimes fondly imagined that
she could see him. And as the months
passed her child, like the others in the
camp. grew more sickly. thin and pale.
till it seemed as if the Fri King spirit of
the miasmic fog had wrapped it round
and entered it. and made it change
ling of it's own.
But delicate as the child was, the
mother was the first to fall sick, and
the news of her illness reached her
husband by his seeing one tiny figure
standing alone at the appointed place,
waving a handkerchief. And there
came day when it, too, was no longer
to be seen. He could not 60 to them.
but had to stay and fight on with bit
terness in his heart.

FOR LOOT AND GAIN2
Admiral Dewey Says Aguinaldo's
Motives Were Mercenary.
On the witness Stand the Admiral Declared
That the Filipino Leader at No Time
Had che Independence of His
Race In Mad.

Washington, June 2s.-Admiral
Dewey continued his testimony be-
fore the senate committee on the
Philippines Friday. Replying to ques-
tions put by Senator Patterson, he
said that he had begun negotiations
with the encouragement of the
Philippines, Gen. Jaudens, for the
surrender of the city and the ne
sotiations were conducted through
the Belgian consul, who after the
death of the British consul had been
very courteous in acting as go
between. 1t was q diplomatic nego-
tiation, no letters being written.
Asked by Mr.. Patterson to explain
his statement that Gen. Merritt had
not accepted the report that the
Spaniards had agreed to capitulate,
Admiral Dewey said that was only
his belief. 81 don't believe" he said,
shat the general entirely trusted
the Spanish authorities. Still he did
not say so in so many words. l may
add that / have since learned that
some of the Spanish officers were
tempted to fire at US, but they did
not do so. Even my own flag lieuten-
ant did not accept their proffer rs
in the best faith. I knew, however,
that they would surrender for I un.

Mr.. Patterson then read Mr.. Wild.
mans letter of July IS, 1898, saying
that Aguinaldo had conducted him.
self in a dignified manner, etc., and
the admiral assented to the truth of
this statement. Speaking of Aguinal-
dos loyalty the admiral said he had
become suspicious of the leader be-
fore the receipt of his proclamation
Of July IS. He said: 81 began to sus-
pect that he was not loyal to us
when he demurred to moving out of
Cavite when our troops arrived"
Admiral Dewey said he had for
warded the proclamations of Aguin-
aldo to Washington without reading
them. "The days and nights were
not long enough for my work at that
time," said the admiral. "Since you
have asked my opinion" said he, in
answer to question, 81 will say I
believe Aguinaldo was there for gain,
for loot, for money, and that indie
pendence never entered his head"
Senator Carmack asked him why he
furnished such a man arms and
helped to organize his army, to which
the admiral replied that "all was fair
in war" and there were no Ameri-
can troops in the islands to oppose
the Spaniards. Answering several
questions the admiral said he thought
he knew Aguinaldo better than Gen.
Otis, Gen. Bell or any other officer,
an he saw more Of him. HE had not
been in Manila 4s hours before saw
he was there for loot; he was then
taking everything he could lay his
hands on from everybody, and I ex-
pect he got the lions SHARE" Senator
Carmack asked "you don't know Of
a single dishonest act on the part of
Aguinaldo, yet you regard him as a
theft" Admiral Dewey said: II
think I shan't answer that question:"
and taking his hat and bowling, left
the room.
