Warrington Convinced That Affairs of the Unsettled Republic Can Best be Improved by Forcs-secretary of the Navy Sends Instructions to American
Naval Commander.

Washington, Feb. 9.-Drastic meas ures will be taken by this government to end the anarchy in San Domingo. Continued violation of international law; destruction Of American property, and disregard of foreign interests has convinced officials that affairs can be best improved by force. Its handling las been turned over to the navy, and Secretary Moody is sending tonight supplementary instructions to Rear Ad- miral Wise, commanding the training squadron now in Dominican waters, giving him wide latitude in the course he is to follow. Rear Admiral Wise has been told in word to protect by force American interests and to deal with each case on it's own merits. The re- ports received from the island show, as an official expressed it tonight, that the condition of affairs there is "semi- barbaric.''
 The question was one of the features of .he cabinet meeting to-day, and at the close of the discussion it was decid- ed the best solution of the problem was to turn affairs over to the navy and have Admiral Wise insure the absolute protection of American interests. It is believed here that he already has taken steps to obtain apology and full repara- tion for the firing on the New York.

county from Iowa along in the year
1873 and filed his homestead on the
land winch he occupied until the

spected and admired. For a time he
was engaged in the grocery business
in this city, but sold out and re-
turned to his farm. He leaves a wife
to mourn his death.

ocean known as the Celebes or Spice

bottles were firmly dashed together and
fixed in a wooden frame. A quantity
of black sand ran from II bottle into
the other in just half an hour, and
when the upper bottle was empty the
frame wa reversed. Twelve short
sticks, marked with notches from one
to twelve, were hung upon a string. A
hook vas placed between the stick
bearing the number of notches CORE

Mime. Antoinette Sterling was a great
advocate of fresh air. Not only did
she regularly patroniZe the tops of
buses. but even when in a cab she sat
in the back seat and kept both Win
dows open. Furthermore, she always
declined to wear any fur or wrap round
her necl: and used to declare that peo-
pie who coddled their threats often
caught colds, but that she never did.
A celebrated example like this is worth
quoting since all the medical teaching
is entirely in accord with her theory

Meat Eating and Appendicitis.

Recent Investigations made by sur
geons in the French army in all parts
of the world demonstrate. to their sat.
isfaction mt least, that the prevalence
of appendicitis is in exact proportion
to the prevalence of meat eating. This
may or may not be true, but a person
who is suffering from appendicitis or
any other disease will not lose any
thing by abstaining from the use of
meat for Il time and noticing the eff
feet on his complaint. This much may
be said even if vegetarianism is a de-
lusion.-Chicago Chronicle.
