ELLIOTT AT PANAMA
1900 MARINES NOW ON THE
IsTHMUs TO PREVENT INVASION.
Scouts Sent Out to Investigate Roads
by Which Colombian Troops
Might Enter.

A special cable dispatch to the New York
Herald from Panama, under yesterday s
date. says:
The cruiser Dixie arrived at Colon this
morning. bringing COO marines. under com
mand Of Brigadier General Elliott. She had
an excellent voyage. making the trip out
from Philadelphia in six days.
There are now 1900 marine on the 18TH
mus, one of the largest forces of American
marines ever gatheherd at one point
General Elliott made a quick tour of In
spection along the line Of the railroad to de-
termine upon a new site for the marine
camp. 1t Is probable that the choice of
Locations will be either Paradise, on hill
about a mile from the railroad track or the
canal companys hospital, on the heights
commanding the city Of Panama.

detac' nents OF the marines stationed at
scouting trips along the trails which the
Colombfans could take in an Invasion OF
Panama. They found progress necessarily
slow. as the streams are sill swollen from
the rains and many fords were difficult.
All existing roads are being examined TO
decide upon available points to mako a
stand In the event of Colombian invasion.
1t is generally believed that the Colon
bians must make move soon
Although no further information has
been received the marines are under or
ders to be ready to move at moments
notice.
The condition of the camp at Empire has
been greatly improved. Major Lejeune.
commanding the camp, occupies the for
mer re sidence of Senior Bunau-Varilla, on
a hilltop. All the old canal buildings have
been cleaned and renovated. Surrounding
vegetation has been cleared away. The
mud has been removed from the stone
paths and bitches dug along the side of the
paths to carry OF water.
The health OF the marines In camp is
generally good although a few cases of
malarial fever are reported; especially
among the men who recently returned
from Aviso, where conditions are bad
Only thirty marines are left at Aviso.
Panaman soldiers scouting near the
border. Special reliance is placed upon the
friendly Indians In the interior, who have
promised the American officers to give
notice of any advance by the Colombians
1t is believed the Indians could send word
through not less than fortnight before the
invaders could reach the railroad.

JAPAN's spy SYSTEM.
Experience of Two Americans
Who Were Swallowed in Tokyo.

The system of espionage in Japan
covers the foreigners and natives alike,
and if there is anything it misses it is
small, writes Oscar King Davis, the
Tokyo correspondent Of the New York
Herald. It considers the possible mean
ing of private kilograms and also in
spects the gOings and comings of prl-
yate persons. The other day two Amer
leans came out Of the Hotel Tokyo and
started on morning walk. Before
they had gone far they discovered they
were followed. Both were husky men.
They gave the spy a merry chase for
an hour, and then they brought him
back to the hotel, and while one kept
him occupied the other went into the
hotel and got an interpreter. Then
they demanded to know what he meant
by following them. There was an eX-
citing debate between the interpreter
and the other. Then the interpreter
said
HE says he is from the country and
never has been in Tokyo before in his
life. You are the first foreigners he
ever has seen, and he was so much in
terested in your manner, your dress and
your talk he followed you. He meant
no offense and asks your pardon"
For some years there have been in
the neighborhood of 10000 Japanese in
Manchuria and 10000 in Korea. Near
" every one has been a source Of in
formation to the military authorities in
Tokyo, and not few have been milf
tary men in one disguise or another.
With false pigtails and Chinese dress,
they have worked as servants for the
Russians, understanding and noting
every word their masters said.
It is an advantage the Russians can
never have. Their bulk absolutely pre-
vents them from undertaking any such
secret work with the japanese, and
they are forced to rely upon the Chi
nese for spies or upon a few renegade
japanese they have been able to find,
with the added difficulty that such jap
anese almost are as well known to
their own government as to the Rus
slams.

Cup to that time the colored schools
of the city of New York were separate
schools. BY the terms of the act OF 1854
these separate schools were changed
into ward schools, andaopened for the
education of pupils for whom educa-
tion is sought without regard for race
or color!'
"These are the words OF the law.
There is the date, the page, the chap
ter. | have verified them, and any
other citizen who seeks the truth can
do the same.
"Yet Mr.. Cleveland not only denied
signing such an act, but declared that
be opposed it, and that it was defeated.
Not only that-he declared my state
ment to be so utterly false that | my
self had no reason to believe it true.
"Happy will it be for the fame Of
Grover Cleveland il the people who
have followed this dispute will now ex
tend to him that charity of opinion
which he haughtily denied to me-"
After citing the record Mr.. Watson
concluded in the following salty man
ner:
Have you fallen away from the
manlier tone of 1854, when you tele-
graphed your friends, concerning a
certain question touching your morals,
Tell the TRUTH Had you forgotten
YOUR record on mixed schools? Had
YOU forgotten the attentions you paid
10 FREQ douglass and to that Albany
pet of Yours, James Mathews? Let US
hope so. And let us hope that the
next time you sign an article for publ
cation you will be more regardful of
dignity as we'll as of truth. The man
who has led the life you have led, and
made the record you have made, is not
the man to assume the airs of disdain
and superctlious superiority which you
are so prone to affect in your cards. -

NlnetV-elght Per Cent.

There is fascination about big
profits TO a business man. But the
conservative and cautious trader pre-
fers to have the lesser per cent. OF in
terest and the larger per cent. OF safety
in his investment. There is no bust
ness man who would not consider it a
sound proposition to invest ip an enter
prise in which absolute loss was i'm
possible and which offered ninety
eight chances in hundred of rich
profit. The statistics of cures effected
by DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery show that ninety-eight per
cent. of cases of "weak lungs" can be
absolutely cured. Almost if not all
forms of physical weakness may be
traced to starvation. Starvation saps
the strength. The body is just as
much starved when the stomach can
not extract nutrition from the food it
receives as when there is no food.
Weak lungs bronchial affections, OBJ
stinate coughs, call for nourishment.
Golden Medical Discovery" supplies
that nourishment in it's most condensed
and assimilable form. 1t makes "weak
lungs" strong by strengthening the
stomach and organs of digestion which
digest and distribute the food, aud by
increasing the supply OF pure food.
