AFTER LADRONES
MILITARY AND CIVIL AUTHORI
TIES UNITE AGAINST THEM
BRIGANDS TERRORIZE PROVINCES
Even Manila Is Not Free from Depre
dations of Armed Guerrillas Number
ing Many Hundreds Who Live in
Mountains
MANILA The government ia
adopting vigorous measures to sup
press the ladrones in the provinces of
Cavite Rizal and Bulacan A zone
embracing these provinces and sur
rounding Mailt is the scene o con
stant petty disorders Several armed
bands some of them numbering 200
are operating in the district and have
committed various depredations aft
erward finding a safe refuge in the
mountains
The government intends to employ
the military to suppress these brig
ands and it is probable they will be
requested to protect the more import
ant towns while the constabulary
conducts the field operations
It is thought that martial law in a
modified form will be declared and
the privilege of the writ of habeas
corpus suspended in Cavite province
rhich has been the home of ladrones
for ages
Military control of Cavite province
is not contemplated It is intended
that the military and civil authorities
shall work in conjunction the belief
being held that advantage has been
taken of the complete inactivity of
the soldiers in some parts of the is
land and it is thought that the use
of the army by the civil authorities
will have a beneficial effect
The vigorous campaign against la
drones conducted by volunteers in
Bulacan province has resulted in driv
ing many refugee bandits into Rizal
where the campaign is now opening
General Davis is co operating with
Governor Taft He has strengthened
the garrisons in Rizal and is support
ing isd assisting the native constab
ulary which is now afield The oper
ations in Cavite province will com
mence shortly
CLEW TO TRAIN ROBBERY

ha to Chicago Are Found

which had apparently been used by
an express company to ship 18000
from Omaha to Chicago over the Bur
lington were fouird on a saw mill car
rier at Treats Friday The seals
had been recently broken
They bore date of August 19 and
it is supposed by the Wabash agent
to whom they were turned over that
they had been rifled of their contents
by men who robbed the train
It is thought the criminal entered
the mill during the night as the en
velopes were not on the carrier the
day before

TREATY SEEMS LIKELY NOW
Cuba Wants Fifty Per Cent Rebate
on Sugar and Tobacco
WASHINGTON Cuba not having
returned the draft of the treaty pro
posed by the United States officials
here are officially Ignorant of the na
ture of the changes the Cubans de
sire
Of course they are known to be con
nected with the increase of the rebate
to be allowed on Cuban sugar and to
bacco and there are indications that
the administration may be willing to
yield slightly on this point If no un
seasonable delay is exhibited in tbo
negotiations
The rebate proposed in the original
convention is 20 per cent and it is
gathered that the Cubans want 50
per cent This rate cannot be allow
ed in view of the belief that congress
would certainly not sanction such a
cut in duties but between these fig
ures there is so wide a margin that
there is room for compromise
The coaling station matter is for
the time being held in abeyance The
1000 tons of coal belonging to the
United States navy now laying in a
warehouse at Triscornia is being di
minished according to the needs of the
navy in gulf waters so that the Cu
ban complaint of the existence of an
American naval station in Havana har
bor is adjusting itself without fric
tion and indeed it is said the mat
ter has not been officially mentioned
lately
MORE RAILROADS FOR LUZON
English Syndicate Makes Application
for the Franchise
MANILA The English syndicate
which operates the Manila Dagupan
railroad has applied for a franchise
to construct a railroad from Guiguin
to province of Bulacan to Cabanua
tan province of NuevaEouija The
syndicate contemplates later the ex
tension of the road to Appari on the
north coast of Luzon It wants the
government to grant a right-of-way
and to make certain tariff taxes and
concessions for a term of years
The commission is preparing to en
act a railroad law and it will not
grant the franchise applied for by the
English syndicate unless Americans
have had a chance to examine the line
of the proposed road and submit pro
posals The line to Appari will be
part of the future Luzon trunk line
and the granting of a franchise for
its construction is therefore a matter
of importance

A nervous irritable mother often on the verge of hysterics is
unfit to care for children it ruins a childs disposition and reacts
upon herself The trouble between children and their mothers
too often is duo to tho fact that the mother has some femalo
weakness and she is entirely unfit to bear the strain upon her nerves
that governing a child involves it is impossible for her to do anything
calmly She cannot help it as her condition is duo to suffering and
shattered nerves caused by some derangement of the uterine system
with backache headache and all kinds of pain and she is on the verge
of nervous prostration
When a mother finds that sho cannot be calm and quiet with her
children she maybe sure that her condition needs attention and she can
not do better than to take Lydia 3K Piiikhnms Vcjjetahlo Compound
This medicine will build up her system strengthen her nerves and
enable her to calmly handle a disobedient child without a scene Tho
children will soon realize tho difference and seeing their mother quiet
will themselves become quiet

THE CHILDREN ENJOY
Life out of doors and out of the games which they play and the enjoy
ment which they receive and the efforts which they make comes the
greater part of that healthful development which is so essential to their
happiness when grown When a laxative is needed the remedy which is
given to them to cleanse and sweeten and strengthen the internal organs
on which it acts should be such as physicians would sanction because its
component parts are known to be wholesome and the remedy itself free from
every objectionable quality The one remedy which phj sicians and parents
well informed approve and recommend and which the little ones enjo
because of its pleasant flavor its gentle action and its beneficial effects is
Syrup of Figs and for the same reason it is the only laxative which should
be usd bj fathers and mothers
Syrup of Figs is the only remedy which acts gently pleasant and
naturally without griping irritating or nauseating and which cleanses the
system effectually without producing that constipated habit which results
from the use of the old time cathartics and modern imitations and against
which the children should be so carefully guarded If you would have them
grow to manhood and womanhood strong healthy and happy do not give
them medicines when medicines are not needed and when nature needs
assistance in the of a laxative give them only the simple pleasant and
gentle Syrup of Figs
Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the
laxative principles of plants with pleasant aromatic sj rups and juices but
also to our original method of manufacture and as you value the health of
the little ones do not accept an- of the substitutes which unscrupulous deal
ers sometimes offer to increase their profits The genuine article may be
bought anywhere of all reliable druggists at fifty cents per bottle Please
to remember the full name of the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO- is printed on
