Showed Careful Practice Work.

The fourth annual concert of the
Lyric Mandolin Club at Wilder hall
last night was one Of the best musir
cal entertainments ever presented In
this city, and every number on the
program was followed by continued
applause, and encores were frequent
The hall was nearly filled. The selec-
tions by the clubs twenty members
bespoke the most diligent training
as well as great aptitude and talent.
The club was assisted by Dan w.
Quinn, vocalist, and M. Jay Colgan,
reciter. Both are artists In the true
sense of the word, and to say that
one scored a greater hit than the 9TH
er could hardly be so, although Mr..
Quinn was applauded SO heartily and
continuously that he gave two en-
cores after each of his first two sched-
.uled selections, and three after his
.ast program number, or total of
ten songs. He sang In a humorous
manner which brought laughter from
all. You knew yon were going to
laugh as soon as he stepped to the
front of the stage with two-by-four
smile and with his finger on his chin
every time he walked to the front.
Among his selections were several
hits from reigning metropolitan mu-
sical comedy successes.

equals OF any afloat In any navy. To
stop building ships for one year means
that for that year the navy goes back
instead of forward.
In both the army and the navy there
is urgent need that everything possible
should be done to maintain the highest

West Point and Annapolis already
turn out excellent officers. We do not
need to have these schools made more

never lose sight Of the fact that the
aim of each school Is to turn out a
man who shall be above everything
else fighting man.
There should soon be an increase In
the number of men for our coast de.
lenses. These men should be of the
right type and properly trained, and
there should therefore be an increase
Of pay for certain skilled grades. espe-
cially in the coast artillery. Money
should be appropriated to permit troops
to be massed in body and exercised In
maneuvers, particularly In marching.

the late minister to Panama and gov
ernor of the canal zone on the isthmus.
Troops were sent to support them and
to relieve the navy, the expedition be-
ing handled with most satisfactory
speed and efficiency. Peace has come
in the island, and the harvesting Of the
sugar cane crop, the great crop of the
island. is about to proceed. When the
election has been held and the new
government inaugurated in peaceful
and orderly fashion the provisional
government will come TO an enc.
The United States wishes nothing of
Cuba except that it shall prosper NOR
ally and materially and wishes nothing
Of the Cubans save that they shall be
able to preserve order among them
selves and therefore to preserve their
independence. IL the elections become
a farce and II the insurrectionary habit
becomes confirmed on the island IL is
absolutely out of the question that the
island should continue independent,
and the United States, which has as
sumed the sponsorship before the civ
ilized world for Cuba's career as ma
ton, would again have to intervene
and to see that the government was
managed in such orderly fashion as to
secure the safety of life and property.
THE RIO CONFERENCE.
The second international conference
of American republics, held in Mexl-
co in the years 19O1-02 provided for
the holding of the third conference
within five years and committed the
fixing of the time and place and the
arrangements for the conference to the
governing board of the bureau of
American republics, composed of the
representatives of all the American
nations in Washington. That board
discharged the duty imposed upon
it with marked fidelity and pains
taking care, and upon the courteous
I'll the conference was held at Rio de
Janeiro, continuing from the 23d of
July to the 10th of August last. Many
subjects of common interest to all the
American nations were discussed by
the conference, and the conclusions
reached, embodied in series of resolu,
tons and proposed conventions, will be
laid before you upon the coming of the
final report of the American delegates.

1880, which was also signed both by
the United States and a majority OF
the European powers. This treaty
confers upon US equal commercial

II may be speedily ratified.
SEALING.
The destruction of the Pribilof Is
land fur seals by pelagic sealing still
continues, The herd, which, according
to the survey made in 1874 by direc-
ton Of the congress. numbered 400
600, and which. according TO the sur
vey of both American and Canadian
commissioners In 1891, amounted to
100000. has now been reduced TO
about 10000, This result has been
brought about by Canadian and some
other sealing vessels killing the female
seals while In the water during their
annual pilgrimage to and from the
south or in search of food.
The process Of destruction has been
accelerated during recent years by the
appearance of a number of Japanese
vessels engaged in pelagic sealing.
Suitable representations regarding
the incident have been made to the
government Of Japan, and we are as.
sured that all practicable measures will
be taken by that country to prevent
any recurrence OF the outrage.
We have not relaxed our efforts TO
secure an agreement with Great Brit
ain for adequate protection Of the seal
herd, and negotiations with Japan for
the same purpose are in progress.
Thelaws for the protection of the seals
within the jurisdiction Of the United
States need revision and amendment.
SECOND HAGUE CONFERENCE
In my last message L advised yor
that the emperor of Russia had taker
the initiative in bringing about sec
ond peace conference at The Hague
Under the guidance of Russia the ar.
rangement of the preliminarles foi
such conference has been progressing
during the past year. Progress has
necessarily been slow, owing to the
great number of countries TO be CON
suited upon every question that has
arisen. 1t is matter of satisfaction
that all Of the American republics have
now, for the first time, been invited to
join in the proposed conference.
ARMY AND NAVY.
1t must ever be kept in mind that
war is not merely justlfable, but i'm
peratiye upon honorable men, upon an
honorable nation, where peace can
only be obtained by the sacrifice OF
conscientious conviction or Of national
welfare
The United States navy Is the surest
guarantor of peace which this country
possesses. I do not ask that we con.
tinue to increase our navy. | ask
merely that 1t be maintained at its
present strength, and this can be done
only IL we replace the obsolete and out

HY0MEl CURES CATARRH
Costs Nothing Unless It Gives Re-
lief Sold Under Guarantee.

No matter how severe or chronic a
case OF catarrh you may have, consult
VIM. L. Gokay about the use Of Hyo-
mel. He has so much faith in the eff
cacy of this treatment that he gives his
personal guarantee with every outfit.he
sells that it will effect cure, or the
money will be refunded.
In many instances Hyomei has cured
catarrh when the patient has suffered
from childhood. Quite few people
in Bennington who have been unable
FIR years to get good nights sleep
on account OF the disagreeable tickling
and dropping at the back of the throa
have obtained quick relief from few
treatments with Hyomei, and the con-
tinued use has made complete and
lasting cure.
There is no stomach dosing when one
uses Hyomei. Simply breathe its med
icated healing through the pocket in
haler that comes with every outfit and
all catarrhal germs will be killed and
the mucous membrane will be healed.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81, sufficient for at least two weeks
treatment, making it one OF the most
economical methods of curing catarrh.
If the outfit does not complete cure
extra bottles of Hyomef, II needed, can
be bought for so cents. Remember
that there is no risk in buying Hyo1
mel. 1t costs nothing unless 1t cures.

the night operator Of the Missouri Pacific
was bringing up the mail to the postoffice
this morning early he discovered a man
lying on the ground between the coal shed
and lumber yard office. Investigation
proved 1t to be a former night operator,
who had been night man here for about
ten days, having been laid on two days
ago, but had not left town yet. When the
trains came in about o'clock this morn
ing the night man said ne was quarrelng
with some one in the waiting room, but
as he is a stranger here he was unable to
tell who It was When found he was I'M
conscious and had a long cash cut in his
head over the eye and one ear was nearly
severed, evidently having been hit over the
head by some sharp instrument. He has
not regained consciousness enough yet to
give any rational account of the trouble.
A physician was called to sew up the
wounds and the authorities are taking care
