ing neutrality has these salient points:
Citizens of the United States are
not to be permitted to enlist in either

No privateers nor any other class of
vessels can be fitted out in the United
States for the purpose of entering ac-

INDIAN AFFAIRS COMMITTEE.
Would Strip Secretary Hitchcock OF
His Authority.

Washington, Feb. bit is learned
that the feeling against Secretary
Hitchcock in the committee on Indian
affairs of the house was more bitter
than reported and there was a move
ment all along the line to strip him of
all authority in connection with the
management of. Indian affairs and turn
the entire business over to Commits
siOner Jones. 1t is said that this
would have been incorporated in the
appropriation bill if it had not been
for the earnest insistence of Commits
sioner Jones who declared that such a
course would make his position as one
of the officials of the interior depart
ment untenable.
1t is also said that the members in
dulged in anything but complimentary
remarks about the secretary. 1t is ex-
pected that the whole animus will be
aired on the floor of the house when
the bill comes up for action. If the
attempt is made by the secretary's
friends to reinsert the stricken out
provisions, the members will make a
committee matter of it, and the fight
will be on

FRAUDS IN A BALE OF HAY.
Frauds in Watch Cases.

According to an article in the Cincinnati
Commercial, n ffty-one pound stone was
recently found in that city secreted in a
bale OF hay of eighty pounds.
This is not as bad as finding a lump of
lead of nearly One-half the weight of the
solid gold watch case secreted in the cen
ter of the case
Gold watch cases are sold by weight,
and no one can see where this lead is Sc
GREETED until the springs Of the case are
taken out and the lead will be found Sc
GREETED behind them.
These cases are made by companies who
profess to be honest but furnish the means
10 the dishonest TO rob the public. 1t is
not pleasant for anyone to find that he has
Iugged lump of lead in his watch case
Another trick the makers of spurious
solid gold watch cases is to stamp the case
~. S. Assay" The United States does
not stamp any article made out of gold
and silver except coin, and the fakir, by
using this stamp, wants to make the public
believe that the government had something
TO do with the stamping or guaranteeing
the hneneSS OF watch cases.
Another trick of the watch falxir is to
advertise watch described as a solid gold
filled watch with twenty or twenty-five
year guarantee. These watches are gen
orally sent Q. o. D., and if the purchaser
has paid for the watch he finds that the
Company which guaranteed the watch to
wear Is not in existence.
The Dueber-Hampden WatcA Company
OF Canton, Ohio, who are constantly ex-
posing these frauds, will furnish the
names OF the manufacturers who are in
this questionable business

FRANCE PLAYS HOT AND GOLD.
French Officials And Public Support
Russia In The Orient.

Paris. Feb 1G = One of the most
notable features of the first week of
the war has been the steady increase
Russia every possible moral and sys-
tematic support. At the outset, the
French officials and public generally
maintained that the interests of France
demanded that she keep clear of the
possibility of any war entanglements
growing out of the Franco-Russian al
lance. This led some newspapers to
assert that France was placing self
interest before duty, and deserving her
best friend in the hour of greatest
need. a gradual reaction has occurred
until now official and public feeling
runs strongly in favor of strengthening
Russia in every way short of actual
participation in the war.
However. French feeling, which is
usually demOnstrative. has not shown
any wild enthusiasm in behalf of Rus
sia This is in rather marked contrast
with the uproarous manifestations at
the time of the cars visit to Paris and
other recent events.
Germany's reported efforts to create
feeling between Russia and France are
attracting the serious attention of the
French officials, who do not hesitate to
express the belief that Germany will
seek to make the most of the oppOr-
tunity to strengthen her position with
Russia and weaken that of France.

Japanese Meet Heavy Loss In An En-

Battle without Support Or Their

London, Feb. 16.-The Daily Nails
Newchwang correspondent cables:
According to official Port Arthur tel
egrams the Japanese landed a force at
Pigeon Bay. west of Port Arthur.
They were then attacked by troops and
by the land batteries and were defeated
ed with heavy loss.
Seoul. - All mails are suspended
Korean malcontents are plundering the
country widespread. The reported
landing of the Japanese is false.
Nagasaki.-At the engagement at
Port Arthur twelve vessels were de-
stroyed and eight captured. The
emperor has congratulated Admiral
Togo, commanding the fleet. for his
splendid victory. 1t is copsidered sig
| nificant that the rigid censorship re-
garding the movements of the japanese
fleet has been withdrawn.
Chefoo. - Passengers who have ar
rived at Port Arthur say the Russian
cruiser Asllold was damaged in the
battle in the roads outside of Port
| Arthur but was kept ahoat all Satur-
day, when it sank in thirty fathoms.
Shanghai.-It was credibly reported
here that the Mongolia had been cap
tured by the japanese off the Shan
Tung peninsula.
Seoul.-The Japanese fleet which en-
tered Chemulpo, escorting transports,
captured one Russian volunteer war
skip and two steamers in open sea.
Nagasaki.-Six Norwegian steamers
chartered by Russian naval contract
or have been captured.
Chefoo.-The steamer ChefOo arrived
here from Port Arthur with a large
number of refugees consisting mostly
of Chinese, but also few Europeans.

THE season of catching cold is upon {
Ii L.crlc.l, -........c Z |

THE season of catching cold is upon
III us. The cough and the sneeze and
nasal twang are to be heard on every
hand. The origin of chronic catarrh, the
most common and dreadful of diseases, is
q cold.
This is the way the chronic catarrh gen.
orally begins. A person catches cold,
which hangs on longer than usual. The
cold generally starts in the head and
throat. Then follows constituencies of the
air passages which incline one to catch
cold very easily. At last the person has a
cold all the while seemingly, more or less
discharge from the nose, hawking, spit
ting, frequent clearing of the throat nos
trils stopped up, full feeling in the head
and sore, inflamed throat.
The best time to treat catarrh is at the
very beginning. A bottle Of Peruna prop
erly used never fails to cure a common
cold, thus preventing chronic catarrh.
While many people have been cured of
chronic catarrh by a single bottle of
Peruna, yet, as rule, when the catarrh
becomes thoroughly fixed, more than one
bottle Is necessary to complete a cure.
Peruna has cured cases innumerable
of catarrh Of twenty years standing.
It is the best, If not the only internal
remedy for chronic catarrh in existence.
But prevention is far better than cure.
Every person subject TO catching cold
should take Peruna at once at the slight
est symptom of cold or sore throat at
this season of the year and thus prevent
what is almost certain to end in chronic
catarrh.
