Dear Sir : “/ took Peruna last sum mer when I was all run' down, and had a headache. and backache, and no arnbi- j /ion for anything. I now feel os well as / ever did in all my life, and all thanks is due to yo'ur excellent Pe runa."—Bess P. Healy. The symptoms of summer ca tarrh are quite unlike in different cases, but the most common ones! are general lassitude, played-out, j tired-out, used-up. run-down feel ings, combined with more or less heavy, stupid, listless, mental condition. Relish for food and the ability to digest food seems to be lost. Skin eruptions, sallow com plexion, biliousness, coated tongue, fitful, irregular sleep, help to complete the picture which is so common at this season. Peruna so exactly meets all these conditions that the demand is so great for this remedy at this season of the year that it is nearly impossible to supply it. If you do not receive prompt and satisfactory results from the \\. use of Peruna, write at once to ywi Dr. Hartman, giving a full state V\\v ment of your case, and he will be Avi pleased to give you his valuable AW advice gratis.

SAN FRANCISCO—Under a balmy sky and on the green sward of Union Square President Roosevelt Thursday morning participated in the dedication of the magnificent monument erected in- commemoration of the victory of the American navy at Manila. The monument consists of a high shaft of white California granite, surmounted by a bronze figure of Victory, holding in one outstretched hand a wreath and in another a trident. The president was escorted from the hotel to the square by all the marines of the warships in the harbor. On the stand from which he addressed the assembled multitude -were the of ficers of the warships in San Fran cisco bay and vicinity, and the offi cers of the cruiser Grafton, the flag ship of the British Pacific squadron. Chairman James G. Phelan present ed the monument to the city and it was accepted by Mayor Schmitz on be half of the municipality. President Roosevelt said San Fran cisco should glory in commemorating the navy’s victory at Manila, as it had opened the Pacific ocean to Ameri can commerce and more than any oth er event had contributed to give the United States a high place among the naval powers, vie dwelt on the ne cessity of preparing ships, armament and men for the navy. Naval battles, he said, are fought in advance and the Americans won at Manila because they had made ready for the strike. The necessity of improving the navy was first made apparent in 1882 and all the warships we now have were built since that time. Since the last war the naval strength of the United States has been rapidly increasing and under the wise provisions of the last congress has particularly advanced. He urged practical work at sea, par ticularly in marksmanship, saying: "Remember that the shots that count in war are the ones that hit.” MANCHURIA IS OPEN TO ALL. Russia Explains the Movements of Her Troops. PEKIN—The Russian charge, M. Plancon, has given reassurances re garding Manchuria. He has issued an official notice that all Manchuria is open to foreign travel and adds that passports are no longer neces sary. There were 500 Russian soldiers at New Chwang, who were removed about the date fixed for the evacua tion, and the same number returned to New Chwang. It appears that the Russian force which returned to the Lia forts merely, used the forts as temporary resting places while jour neying southward to their station on the peninsula. A NATIONAL FEDERATION. That Is What the Contractors May Form. NEW YORK—A national federation of employers, it is expected, will be one of the consequences of the move ment begun by employers of labor in the building trades to organize for protection and aggressive purposes against the labor unions. Telegrams and letters received from Chicago, Philadelphia and Boston and other cities state that the movement in this city is being watched with the keenest interest, and that if it Is shown that unity o; action by em ployers can be made perfect, organiza tions similar to that in this city will be formed in every large center of population. CATTLE TO BE QUARANTINED. Strict Measures Will Be Adopted to Prevent the Mange. DENVER, Colo.—What will be the most extensive quarantine of cattle in the west for years will be in effect within a few days as the result of the general prevalence of the mange. Governor Peabody on Tuesday issued his proclamation. Other states and territories to the number of six or eight will come under the same rule before the end of the week. Hay Makes Acknowledgment. WASHINGTON—Secretary Hay has made a graceful acknowledgment of Russia’s statement of its purposes rel ative to Manchuria. The secretary’s note, addressed to Count Cassini, ex presses regret that there should have been even a temporary misconception of doubt as to Russia’s position in the matter and seizes the opportunity to return the thanks of this government for the frank and satisfactory declar ation of Russian principles. Departmental Friction. WASHINGTON.—Friction between the war and navy departments may result from the general board of which Admiral Dewey is president in preparing plans for the defense of Manila, the new naval station at Bahia Honda and Guantanamo and other na tional property. According to the law the “secretary of war is charged with all matters relating to national de fense and also sea coast fortifica tions.” ♦mi iii rniwm imiuiK : ■ THE LIVE STOCK MARKET, i — x Latest Quotations From South T J Omaha and Kansas City. J ♦+♦1)111 II II MM I M HM++-M SOITII OMAHA. CATTLE—There was ai more raoder nte run of cattle ami even though the supply for the week 1ms been very liberal, buyers took hold freely, and a fully steady market was experienced. About the usual proportion of of ferings consisted of boef st^Ts and while the market was a little more active there was not much change in prices. Owing to the rapid fluctua tions of the last few days prices are rather uneven so that’ while some salesmen thought they had a little bet ter luck, others were calling the mar ket no more than steady. There was also a little more snap to the cow trade. Prices, though showed very little improvement and the same as was the case with beef steers, the market could best be described by call ing it fully steady. There were com paratively few stoekers and feeders in the yards. Bulls, veal calves and stags did not show enough change to be worthy of mention. There were very few stoekers and feeder^ on sale, and as the end of the work is at hand not many were wanted. The few cat tle that did arrive sold at just about steady prices. The demand from the country lias been insufficient this week to clean up practically all the desirable cattle that have arrived. HOGS—There was another enormous run of hogs, which makes the receipts for the last two days by far the heav iest of any two days this year. Pack ores naturally took advantage of the heavy run to pound the market to a still lower level, but still they did not take off as much ns might be expected. They seemed to want tlie hogs and tlie general market was only 2%®5a lower. ,The bulk of the hogs sold at $6.32% and $6.35, with the choicer loads sell ing largely from $6.35 to $6.40. The commoner loads went from $6.30 down.

"Artistic workmanship" with the revolver, by the wuy, is one of the Sul tan of Turkey's accomplishments; he is reputed to be one of the finest shots in the world, and practices dally. The reason of this is his constant dread of assassination, and ho has always his weapon ready. It is stated that he once killed a gardener who stepped suddenly from behind a tree in the garden of the Ylldiz palace, before the man bad time to move a hand. He is, in fact, as the ranchmen of the wild West, used to say, "some sudden with his artillery.” Dealers say that as soon as a cus tomer tries Defiance Starch it Is im possible to sell them any other cold water starch. It can be used cold or boiled. Ignorance and conceit lire twins. An Old California Tree. The age of a tree is determined by the number of rings of wood Its trunk contains. The woody liber is slower in growing in winter thnn in summer, and consequently distinct rings are formed, each representing a year. By means of these rings the gigantic cross section of a California tree, l;34t years old, Is used at the New York Musuefn of Natural History as a history chart, and as such It shows in a novel way the sequence of events in the lust thousand years. 7 ; i , Just what it was 25 years ago, St. Jacobs Oil is now.
