The readers OF this paper will be
pleased TO learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages,
and that is Catarrh. Halls CaJarrb
Cure Is the only positive cure now
known TO the medical fraternity. Ca
tarrh being a constitutional disease,
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally
acting directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces OF the system, thereby des-
troying the foundation Of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assist
ing nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list OF testi,

Found Eofnan Amphithea alter.

A Roman amphitheater has been
discovered during the construction Of
a railway from Rome to Naples. The
building had been first buried in its
own debris and later by volcanic
eruption of unknown date. Recently
the Minister Barzilai, accompanied
by Professor Spinazzola and others,
was taken to see the ruins, and was
able TO descend the upper range of
steps. There were also to be seen
the upper apertures of entrances and
exits and pieces of the beams which
had supported the awnings. Frag-
ments of gilded and colored stucco
were q proof Of the once magnificent
decorations Of the edifice. From the
steps a fine view was obtained Of Poz.
2uoli, once the port of ancient Rome,
so rich that she could boast Of two
amphithcaters. The one just found
IS the older in date and evidently the
more glorious.

THURSDAY. JANUARY q, 1916.

No surprise attaches TO the reluc-
lance with which Italy and France APP.
proach Englsnd's proposal in the mat
ter of altering her blockade" pro-
gramme. Such precedent as Eng
land seeks now to establish might well
prove disastrous TO either of her allies
at some future date. The plan, as an
nounced in the dispatches, represents
further encroachment upon the
rights of neutras and the --LATEST deni.
al Of those rights yet attempted. In
illegality, it represents decided ad-
vance over the orders in council as a
rather desperate attempt to effect the
complete economic strangulation OF
Germany.
In substituting the blockade" for
the orders in council, what the Brit
ish Government are doing is not to
legalize this procedure, as the termin-
ology might intimate, but to extend
their present illegal programme, and
also to appropriate the privileges that
accompany legal blockade which
they had hitherto SURRENDERED in consd-
GRAFTON OF the co erred irregularity.
They propose now not only TO seize
neutral shlppings destined for neutral
ports, but also TO confscate them as
violators OF blockade, whereas under
the orders in council compensation
was promised for such seizures.
The practical effect OF such change,
so far as this country is concerned,
need not be great, save that where re-
enumeration has hitherto been proifer-
ed none will now be Forthcoming. The
important point is that such decision
by Great Britain will mean an emphat-
ic denial OF every principle that we
have contended for in the blockade
controversy. SO far from abandoning
the doctrine of ultimate destination, "
that doctrine is TO be applied the more
thoroughly and energetlcally, with
the added sting OF confscaton. SO far
from bringing the blockade" bearer
TO legality by contracting the Gordon
SO as to limit its effects TO enemy ports
as nearly as practicable, that Gordon is
to virtually become piratical squard-
ron, rowing both the Atlantic and Med
tterranean, enjoying at the same time
all the restrictive powers OF close
blockade.
The Government at Washington is,
OF course, keeping close eye on the
development. What is wanted at the
proper time is a protest Of such vigor
as will quicken the British Govern
ment's appreciation OF our determine
ton to withstand any such invasion of
neutral rights 1t is worth remember
ing in this connection that our contro.
yersy with Germany cannot be re.
garded as satisfactorily disposed OF so
long as Great Britain is permitted to
indulge in conduct SO plainly provoca
tive OF reprsal.

According to an announcement
which was made recently at Madrid,
a new steamship line is about to BIZ

United States. The plans call for
steamers to ply directly between Vigo
and New York. King Alfonso. 1t is
said, has given the enterprise his sup

line will provide a shorter route be-
tween the two countries than any now
in operation. The distance is a little
more than 1850 miles. While the COM

LABOR SHORTAGE

Washington, Aug. 16.-With an un-
precedented building program facing
them. navy officials are concerned ov-
er the shortage of trained mechanics
available for carrying out such of the
new work as may be sent to govern
ment yards. Shipbuilding trades have
been unable to supply enough men for
construction now in progress, and Of
ficials believe there win be consider
able delay both in public and private
yards due to this fact.
The keels of the battleships Califor-
MIA and Tennessee still are to be laid,
although contracts for their construc
ton were awarded to the Mare Island
and Brooklyn navy yards respectively,
many months ago. Work on the Cali
fornia is expected to begin next month
At the Brooklyn yard the department
had planned to put double shifts to
work on the New Mexico. so as to get
her into the water and clear the way
for the Tennessee. but because of the
shortage of skilled labor 1t has been
with great difficulty that a single
full shift has been maintained.
Navy yards have been compelled to
take inexperienced men in large num-
bers as the best of the former con-
structton crews have gone to private
plants.
