A Veterans Story.

Bath, N. Y., April l3th.-The first con- sideration of the Commandant and Officers in the conduct of the Soldiers and Sail ors' Home here, is the health of the Vet erans. Kidney Troubles are the most com mon cause of ailment, very few of the old men escaping these in some form or other.
 Of course the comrades do as much as possible for themselves and one of the most popular and useful remedies em- ployed is Dodd's Kidney Pills which seem to be almost infallible in cases of Kidney arrangements. Indeed, there are among the veterans, several who claim to owe their lives to Dodd's Kidney Pills.
 For instance, A. F. Ayers, who came to the home from Minneapolis, Minn., was given up by four doctors in that city He had Bright's Disease and never expected to live through it, but his life was saved and his health restored by Dodd's Kid ney Pills.
 His experience has made the remedy very popular among the men and no one who has used Dodd's Kidney Pills for any Kidney Trouble has been disappointed.

WAS MOTOJo'S FLAGSHIP.
The Cruiser Reina Christina, Sunk by Admiral Dewey, With Eighty
 Skeletons on Board, FIOated.

Manila, April 14.-The warshir Reina Christina, flagship of Admiral Montoio, which was sunk by Admira Dewey, was f1oated and beached Sun day. The skeletons of about so ot her crew were found in the hulk.
 One skeleton was evidently that of an officer, for it had sword by his side. There are 15 shell holes in the hull of the Reina Christina, one made by an eight-inch and the others small The main injection valve is missing, showing the ship was scuttled when abandoned. The hull is in fair condi- tiOn.
 Capt. Albert R. Coudon, command ing the naval station at Cavite, took charge of the remains of the sailors, expressing the desire to give them an American naval funeral.
 Spanish residents, however,are anN- ious to ship the skeletons to Spain, and it is suggested that the United States transport Sumner convey them to Spain by the way of the Suez canal in June.
 A wrecking company is endeavor- ing to raise all the sunken Spanish warships.

HOW LITTLE WE REALY KNOW
Scientific investigation Shows That We Know But Little of Ameri-
 can Civilization.

San Francisco, April 1.-The earli- est American civilization, far ante dating the generally accepted limits of pre-Columbian cultures, has been traced in Peru by Dr. Max Uhle, di- rector of the anthropologica excava- tions and explorations of the univer- sity of California in that country. Whereas, heretofore, Inca tradition had led scientists to believe that Pe- ruvian civiliza ton extended back only few centuries before the coming of Spaniards, the archaeological work of Dr.. Uhle has established the fact that a great civilization fourished two thou sand years earlier, at the least esti- mate, and that cultured race of higher development than the Incas was in existence before the Trojan war. This remarkable discovery is a result of the studies made in the two expeditions which Dr. Uhle led in re- cent years at the expense of Mrs. Phoebe Hearst ,and under the auspices of the University of California.
