aliening of the winter scation.
With the departure of Wlllard , Tree , John

Interest already centers In the opening of
Mr. Tree's new theater , work on which Is
being carried forward In Kreat haate , and
there Is also much Hpoaulallon an to Amer

Dr. Conan Doyle has had a new play ,

by the management of the Haymarket the

of James Payne's and will probably bo pro
duced at the termination of the run of
"Under the Red Kobe. " This will prob
ably be a long time hence , as the business
of the latter drama Is simply enormous
and the advance- booking extends well Into

NKW YOUK , Nov. 11. Two editorials , as
well ns some small llemu , from the pen
of Thomas Mcrrlck Jones appeared in the
Irish Itcpuldlc during the absence of C. 0.
McLaughlln , the editor of that paper ,
through Illness. One , headed "Unmasked , "
denounced Joseph Chamberlain , British
colonial secretary. In unmeasured terms
just before he had landed In New York
on his recent visit hero. It Is said the re
sult of this article was to have Mr. Cham
berlain placed under the protection of de
tectives durlt.g his stay In America.
The editorial which occasioned the great
est excitement among Irishmen and dc-
inmciatlon by them In general was published
In the Irish Republic on September 13 hut ,
a week after Dr. Thomas Gallagher , who
wa. < released from Portland prison , hod ar
rived here. Jones was one of the amnesty
committee which received Gallagher nnd hl
denunciation of the doctur'u prison treat
ment was bitter In the extreme. In the
next tSHiie of the paper he had published an
editorial entitled "Strike Her to the Heart , "
which refers to Kngland's treatment of
Gallagher , Whltehend and othr political
priaoi.cr-i in KnglUh jails , and says :
' What urn we going to do v.-lth all thU
Ktif.Ilsh barbarity ? Ur.llaghcr and Whltehead
and Murphy are American citizens. Will
this government stand Idly by without a
v/ord of protest r.g.ilnst this Inhuman treat
ment of them ? Surely not. "
In conclusion , the editorial says : "A
still further duty rests upon Irishmen. Tlioj
cannot afford to sit down and whine about
their woes. Whining will neither release
Dr. Gallagher from Dr. Wilson's asylum In
Amltyvllle nor avenge him and hla fellow
sulTercrs. We. must be up and doing , nncl
driving the tears back to our hearts , set
about teaching Kngland a lesson she will
over remember. No more mercy should be
shown to Knglund than to a wild beast and
fur every cyo we should have ai. eye , and
for every tooth n tooth. This Is the day ol

CHICAGO , Nov. 14. Thomas Merl Jones
was In Chicago and registered at McCoy's
hotel September 22 , ISfl'i. Ho was a guest
of the house until October 3 , and occupied
room 231. Mr. McCoy , In speaking of the
man who gave the sensational testimony ut
tholvorv trial In London , said :
"I have no recollection of Jones , and If I
met him I have forgotten. I attended one
Gcsdlon of the convention , but the rest of
the time was busy at the hotel and did not
keep the run of proceedings. I believe his
uvldence Is rubbish. He Is probably In the
employ of the Drltlsh government , and his
story Is told In order to make a bluff nt
uarnlng his salary. I do not know of any
thing except the caiicnam which art- usual
at all conventions. "
DUDLIN. Nov. 14. Jones , the government
spy. who created such a sensation yesterday
nt How street police court , when ho testified
against Richard J. Ivory , the alleged Irish-
American dynamiter , was In this city within
the last fortnight. He tried to establish re
lations of a sensational character with per
sons who are supposed to hold extreme polit
ical views. lie alsi > stated that two per
sons mentioned by him in his evidence as
being Irish-American agitators wore really
In the pay of the llritish government.
The Telegraph of this city says It has
Ind'sputable proof that Jones was In Dublin
ten days ago , on a mission from Scotland
yard , trying to work up an outrage. The Telegraph -
graph adds that whenever necessary it can
produce the man upon whom Jones called
and offered dynamite machines.

HAVANA , Nov. 3. The latest application
of "gag" law It the decree by Captain Gen
eral Woylcr whereby all nowsdealera are
compelled to send one copy of each and every
newspaper they are going to eell to be ap
proved or disapproved by the censor. In
i this manner all newspapers containing re-
i ports of the war are qulo.ly squelched. Tr.ero
' Is no doubt the election of McKlnley 1s n
source of much worry to the Spanish govern
ment , for It Is generally conceded the new
ptcsldent will do something toward recog
nizing the Insurgent government's belliger
ency. In conversation with olllcers high In
the Spanish army and who nro cloae to the
MadId government , they have positively as
serted to mo that the home olllco has assur
ances from their minister In Washington to
the effect that the Cleveland administration
will not recognize the Cubans under any cir
cumstances. At the time that congress
passed the joint resolutions the Spanish min
ister had a conversation with the State de
partment , and he was assured by that de
partment that no matter what congress did
the government would under m > circum
stanced recognize the belligerency of the
Cuban Insurgents.
From , one of General Wcylcr'a secre
taries , I was also Informed that General
| Weyler has Issued Instructions to all the
captains of crulsera that whenever nn ex
pedition Is caught court-martial Is to be
madu on the spot and the execution to fol
low In order to avoid International complica
tions such as the Competitor case.
In the trial of political prisoners here
there Is no such a thing ns justice , for
the judges have to give u verdict against
the prisoner or Incur the enmity of the
captain general. As an Instance , I will cite
the ease uf Manuel Vlcudl. Vicndl was
the attorney for Julio Sanguilly and
Aguirre and managed to secure the release
of Aguirre and the reversal of Sangullly's
case In Spain. Well , a trumped up charge
of conspiracy was made against him and
he today Is an his way to the African islands.
If he la not dead. The judges are all with
one or two exception Spaniards and men
who have no knowledge or acquaintance In
the city and hence their Interests center
with the government on which they are de
pendent for their living.
Of battles there have been many. In which
much blood has been spilled , and they have
been suppressed by the censor. Gcneial
Kchaguc met u terrible defeat , and has
been iiilto badly wounded , so much so that
It Is feared be will die as the result of the
various wounds ho received. The battle
was fought at Guayablto * . The Spaniards
left Santiago de Los llanos some 1,5JO strong
and with n section of artillery. They met
the Insurgents , who were fortified , and the
fight lasted nil day. the Spanish remaining
on the offensive , only advancing when the
Insurgents had withdrawn their men from
the hills. 1'iom men who were In the en
gagement I learn the artillery was without
ofllcers , nnd one entire company of Arapllcs'
battalion was almost annihilated. The of
ficial report to the captain general reads
there were only llfteen killed and nlncty-
three wounded , but from one of the lieu
tenants who came to Havana I am reliably
Informed the deaths wcro sixty-five nnd the
wounded 17C. Among the wounded were
Lieutenant Colonels Aragon , Roilerlgucz and
Romero. U seems the Insurgents bud their
dynamite gun In working order nnd did
much damage with It.
Ily newspapers received from the United
States I learn the Insurgents are reported
to have been dislodged from their poal-
tlons. That Is not true. The Insurgcnta
are yet In the mountains of Plnar del Rio.
Maceo. with a small band , went to receive
an expedition , ami the Spanish olilclals
cabled that be had been dislodged. They
will have a time getting him out of the
mountains , ns Maximo Gomez , with a
strong force. Is coming up from Camaguey.
It Is much In doubt K General Weyler
will be able to remain In Havana long.
Ho will either have to go to Plnar del Ulo
or to Santa Clara province to direct opera
tions. In fact even his own men arc com
plaining of bis Inactivity.
At Guayot , tile insurgents defeated tin
SpanUh troops under Denial , and though
they report only nine dead and thirty-
seven wounded , after five hours' fighting
and gave the Cubans a lore of 100 dead and
300 wounded , still from a medical student
who Is stationed at Regla I learn that from
this action the Spaniards brought ninety-
seven wounded soldiers to the hospital , to
say nothing of the number of men who were
left behind too badly wounded to bo car
ried.
ried.The
The executions continue as merrily as
ever and It has come to such a pass now
that the court-martial Is held at night and
the onicers often decide the death penalty
without even having the prisoner present.
In the past few days twenty-nine Cubans
have been executed.

WASHINGTON , Nov. 14. Today's state

If there is any reason why you should use
nny snrsnpnrilln , there is every reason why you
should use Ayer's. When you take harsnpnrilla
you take it to cure disease ; you want to be cured
ns quickly as possible and as cheaply as possible.
That is why you should use Ayer's : it cures
quickly and cheaply and it cures to stay. Many
people write us : " I would sooner have one bottle
of Ayer's Sarsaparilla than three of any other
kind. " A druggist writes that "one bottle of
Ayer's will give more benefit than six of any other
kind. " If one bottle of Ayer's will do the work
of three it must have the strength of three at the
cost of one. There's the point in n nutshell. It
pays every way to use
Ayer's Sarsaparilla.

WASHINGTON , Nov. 11. The commis
sioner general of Immigration In his annual
report shows that during the last fiscal year
the arrivals of Immigrants In this coun
try aggregated n4S,267 , of whom 310,803
were- landed and 2.SS9 were debarred and de
ported at the expense of the various steam
ship lines by which they came.
Of those deported SCO Were found to be
under contract to perform labor In the
United State * made prior to their arrival , anil
2,023 were returned aa belonging to other
prohibited classes. In addition to the num
ber debarred there wore > "US who became
public charges within a year after their
arrival , and hence were returned to the
countries whence they cime. The commis
sioner general states that he knows of no
Immigrant landed In this country during
the- last year who IB now a burden upon any
public or private institution.
With sonic- exceptions , the report states ,
the [ iliyslc.il characteristics of the year's Im
migration were those of a hardy , soundlabor-
Ing class , accustomed and apparently well
able to earn a livelihood wherever capable
and Industrious labor can eecuro employ
ment. As to occupations. It was composed
largely of the classes designated as skilled
and unskilled laborers , with some profes
sionals. The amount of money broimhl into
the country by the Immigrants was at least
$ I.U7.318. ! and probably was largely In ex
cess of these figures.
"Tho statistics at hand , " the commis
sioner general states "do not Justify the
conclusion that our alien population la growIng -
Ing In undue proportions. A comparison of I
the figures for the past year. lUD.'Ja" , with
the average annual Immigration for the pre
ceding fiscal year. 43r..OS."i , discloses a de
crease of 91.SIS. or over 21 per cent. Such
data ns I have been able to obtain as to the
number of.thoso who annually return to
their own 'country , though approximate
only , leads me to doubt seriously that there
could be any material IncreiseIn our for
eign-born population since 1R)3. ! ) "
The arrivals for the fiscal years ISfll and
1S05 aggregated 25S.i3G. ( The reports show-
that of the total number of immigrants
over 11 years of ago that arrived during the
year. 5,060 could not write , and 78,130 could
neither read nor write , which Is 28.C3 per
cent of the whole number. Of those who
could neither read nor write , 31,374 came
from Italy , 12,810 from Uussla proper , 12-
154 from Hungary , C.107 from Bohemia and
Moravia , 5.281 from other parts of Austria-
Hungary , 2.173 from Ireland , 1.563 from
Arabia and Syria , and 1,589 from Portugal.
The report shows that of the whole num
ber of arrivals 212.4GG were males and 130-
SOl females.

the Venezuelan government the advantage
of accepting the treaty and adjusting the

Andrado left Washington confident there
would bo no hesitation on the part of Vene

should bo speedily disposed of that he de
cided to go In person to Caracas Instead of
making his representations by letter. The
treaty will have to be approved not only
by President Crespo hut i > y the house of

the part of the Venezuelan legislature and
especially when It was found that a treatj
so favorable to that country had been made
and that Its adoption was strongly urged
by the United States. The tieaty Is In

He had reached bin GIth year , and In ac

tillery in the Florida hostilities against the
Semlnolo Indians. He served with credit
throughout the rebellion and was twice bre

as brigadier general , "for faithful and meri
torious services. "
After the battle of Dull Hun ho was on
duty In the War department. In charge of

WASHINGTON. Nov. 14. The total num

has been steadily diminishing according to
the annual report of Colonel Alnsworth ,
chief of the bureau. On the other hand , the
percentage of cases requiring administrative
action or something more than a mere state
of the military history of the soldier
has largely Increased. Involving much more
work In their disposition. A largo number
of Inquiries uro now being received from
descendants of the soldiers of the revolu
tion , and it Is expected that these will bo
supplemented by similar Inquiries us to the
soldiers of the war of 1812 as soon as the
military history of tlieso soldiers Is com

The currctn business of the olllco has ben
kept up to date , more than 91 per cent of the

twenty-four hours of their receipt , and at

Colonel Alnsworth says that there are
doubtless a considerable number of person ;

WASHINGTON , Nov. II. General P112-
hugh I.co , consul general uf Ilia Unltoil | '
States to Cuba. , returned hero this evening j
from VlrKlnln , where ho has been visiting
his family. No lime has yet heuu fixed for I
hlH return to Havana , but It Is understood
ho hns been nsked to remain hero probably
'a couple of weeks longer. In order to hold
himself In readiness to confer with the
president and secretary of state over the
Cuban situation. j I
General Lee talked tonight of the Spanish- j I
Cuban situation , and , while not denylni ;
the possibility of war with Spain , expressed j
the opinion that the reports that open rup
ture was Imminent and that consequent
preparations for trouble were being niado
by both countries might bo greatly exas
perated. Ho said lie had no knowledge of
Immediate dancer of hostility , though , of
course , there was great fcellni ; among some
Spaniards against this country , as they
thought thai \\lthout filibustering aid and
comfort from here the rebellion might easily
be suppressed. ' He had no Information as to
whether the Spanish were prepared or pre
paring for war.
He said : "I do not believe there has been
any massing of armament In Cuba with a
view to possible trouble with the United
States , nor that the construction of Spanish
war vessels Is to be attributed to any such
contingency. The Spanish may be improv
ing their defenses wherever possible , but
It docs not necessarily imply expectation of
war. The United Statca Is steadily strength-
cnlng its fortifications and defense works.
but It Is an old maxim that says : 'In time
of peace prepare for war. '
"Abnut the war sentiment In Cuba ? The
Spanish oinclals salil nothing to me that
Indicted an expectation of war. The only
thing that could bo construed to give- that
Impression Is the mounting of a battery
of heavy scacost guns along the coast above
Havana. There are from twelve to llfteen
of these that extend perhaps a mile or a
mllu and a half north of the limits of the
city proper. These point to sea and not
toward the Insurgents. In case of attack
It Is poswlblo that these nilRht be made to
supplement the defense given by Morro
Castle. Cabanas ami Hclna and other forts.
"The Spanloh authorities rather censure
the United Slates for not strictly enforcing
the neutrality laws , and many think that ,
as the sympathy of this country is more
with the Insurgents than with the Spanish ,
our government" does not want to take the
proper precautions to prevent expeditions
leaving I'nlttil Stfcles siaports and landing
In Cuba. I told the Spanish authorities
that thry mus remember that there was
an Immense exte'iH of tseacoast , with In
numerable' InlcCs and places where expedi
tions could bo concentrated and embarked.
From the trouble from which they them
selves hld tg prevent the landing of such
expeditions on the Cuban coast , notwlth
standing the ! _ that their gunboats and
other vessels' ' \Ycre , constantly patrolling the
coast and oil i thr lookout for filibusters ,
some Idea could b fornip.l of the compara
tive ease with Which the I'nlted States
could be evaded. With the comparatively
small Cuban * coasC * line I know'of only ono
big expedition tiat ) of thr Three Friends
which has beqii captured by them. Vet this
country hns certainly prevented the s > tart-
Ing of least Halt adozen big expeditions for
the Island. In1 "vlc'w1 of this , as an object

to filibustering.'t Contehd that the- Spanish

WASHINGTON. Nov. II. ( Special Tele

established In Nebrwka. tty order of the
first assistant postmaster general , made to
day , Tecumseh. Johnson county , has been
chosen us the Initial station In which to at
tempt this departure on behalf of the Post-
officedepartment. . The distance covered U
not exceedingly large , hut will show , It Is
brllou'd by the postal authorities , sultlclent
merit to extend the service. It has been the
ambition ol First Assistant Postmaster General -
oral Jones to accomplish In the United States
a service somewhat similar to that now oh-
mining In Kngland. He desires before leav-
Ins his petition to have the rural service
thoroughly well established nnd accordingly
'he 1ms taken from three to five planto
develop his Idea of sen Ing farmers from n
central ntntlnn.
Action relative to the TranstnlsslsMppl Ex
position and the proclamation of the presi
dent as to the establishment of the same Is
a subject of considerable comment by Hep-
roatntatlvo Mercer , \\lio said today that he
would not go home until the Christmas hol
iday , believing that he could do more good
for tin * Transmlssisslppl Imposition here
than at Omaha. Thus far the Treasury de-
rtartmont has not been acquainted with the-
stock subscriptions and donations to the
exposition , and In order that the upptopria-
j lion of $1:00.000 : shall bo obtained It will bo
necessary for the management to so satisfy
the Treasury department that the donations
and subscriptions arc bona Ilde. An effort
will be made. It la understood , to Increase
the amount to a Ilgure commensurate with
\ l the magnitude- the exposition , but In ordpr
' to dn this some action must bo taken before
I I i congress convenes to satisfy the authorities
i that the Intent of the bill appropriating
i $200,000 for the exposition has been realized.
Congressman Mercer Is now laboring with
the Treasury department oinclals as to the
work of organizing the exposition and hopes
wlihln a v ry short tlmo to outline to the
local tn.ina'cmcnt ( that which Is absolutely
essential to the success of the same.

CHICAGO , Nov. II. Senator Ilrlce'a
scheme to establish a new line between
Chicago and Cincinnati Is likely to he
realized at an early day. George I. , llrad-
bnry , vice president and general manager of
the LakeKrle & Western , and Fort Wayne ,
Cincinnati & Louisville railroads , has opened
an otiiee at Chicago , and will have his
principal headquarters In this city. Mr.
Hradbury Is the right-hand man of Senator
llrlce In the management of the roads he
controls , nnd his removal to Chicago clearly
ahows that Senator Hrlco's ChlcaRO-Clncln-
natl line la about to be opened for huslnejis.
The obstacle In the way of establishing
the new route was the dtlUcuky In obtaining
nn outlet for Senator Ilrlee's Ohio lines to
Chicago. A deal hail been contemplated with
the Ilaltlmoro & Ohio fr.r tne use of its
tracks from Chicago 10 u connection with
the Cincinnati. Jackson & Mackinaw rail
way , but It appears that this Idea has bren
abandoned and the Wahatdi will be used as
an outlet from Chicago.
The most profound secrecy Is being
maintained as to the ttafHc In which the
two steamers , which have been contracted
for by the Lower Lakes Steamship com
pany , by the Chicago Shipbuilding company ,
are to be engaged. It Is the general opinion
In lower lakes ship crlclcs that the boats
are to bo the nucleus of a new line of
steamers between Chicago and Oawego , N.
V. , where rail connection will ho made to
the seaboard ut New York , with the Ontario
& Western railroad. That railroad has long
been seeking an outlet to the west by way
of Us own. If this surmise l correct it
will gl\t > Chicago another Important lake and
rail connection with New York with the
opening of navigation next spring.

CHICAGO. Nov. II. The roads of the
Wiatern Passenger association have for
some tlmo been considering the advisability
of placing In the market a S.OOO-mllo Inter
changeable ticket , and at the last meeting
cf the association the matter was'discussed
In a very thorough manner. The majority
of the objections that were urged against the
ticket , it was suggested , was that the Male
of the tickets be placed entirely In the hands
of the chairman of the association , each
road to be paid for whatever portions of the
ticket It might turn In. After a long dis
cussion It was decided that It would be the
better policy to defer action until the meet
ing of the eastern lines , which has been
called for this city on Thursday of next
week for the purpose of coiiiiiderlng the In
terchangeable ticket plan suggested by Gen
eral Passenger Agent Ford of the Pennsyl
vania lined. If no action Is taken by the
eastern lines , the western roads will take
up the matter themselves.

pany Is caused by the decrease of freight

the fact that the Alton employed their shop

Taylor and Ma son have paid their lives as

one faction setting the dogs on the hogs

Dad blood has existed between the two

Mort himself wan once convicted as an
accessory to the murder , but on another

the two families have been at daggers'

EXPENSE FOR THE SPECIAL MESSENGERS
CinnhcrNoino Method of Colle
and Delivering the Suite * ' Volt-
Tolerated llccailMC of An
tique Precedent.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 14. ( Special. ) That
unique piece of political baggugo known to
the American people as a messenger to Htato
electors will shortly be wending his way to
Washington with the precious electoral vote
of the several states. Kvcry recurring four
years the messengers of the electoral col
lege look forward to a high old tlmo In de
positing the votes of the electors with the
secretary of stale , president of the senate
and the judge of the district court of the
state In which said electors meet. There
have been many efforts made to amend tin
old law creating these messengcrshlps , but
up to the present time the efforts have been
of little avail , for congress has looked upon
a change In the manner of depositing the
votes of state electors as a blow at the
fundamental principles of our government.
The law creating these messcngershlps wai-
passed In 1792 , and for upward of a ecu
tury has been one of the bulwarks of oui
liberty. In ISO ! certain amendments won
made to the law dctlnlng additional powers
of the messengers and in the manner In
which they hhould carry the returns to tin
scat of government nt Washington.
In the Fifty-third congress Chairman
Tucker from tlu * committee on the election
of president and vlco president presented i
report to accompany house resolution 7088.
which had for Us object the correction ol
certain evils growing out of the messenger-
ship service , reporting back a substltuti
bill relating to changing the mode of trans
mission of votes of electors for president and
vice president. I.Ike others of the kind , thr
bill died In committee.
There seems to bo , no valid reason why OK
icturns of electors should not bo transmitted
by tbo Postolllce department of the govern
ment and by express rather than by the cx-
penslvo method now In vogue. As nn In
stance of how much the Treasury department
pays messengers every four years it may bi
noted that In 1872 the mcssetiKcrshlp service
cost the government $20,000 ; In 1S7C , ? 3sr)7 ,
In ISiO. $3.713.75 ; in 1SSI , $10.3IG.70 ; In I8SS
$ ! ) ,211.75 ; In 1W2 , $12,071.50 , and It Is an
ticipated that In this year , 1S90 , the cost
\\lll touch. If not exceed , the figures of
1872 , that of $20.000 , there being forty-live
states In the union and the messengers com
ing from the four points of the compass. It
is no mere bagatelle that Is paid for mileage
to these several couriers of state electors
they receiving 2ii cents per mlle coming and
golng-by the best known and usually traveled
route.
DAVI3 MEHCKH'S AMENDMENT.
Uepresentatlvo Mercer , during tbo first
session of the Klfty-fourlh congress , Intro
duced a bill to amend certain sections of the
revised statutes of the United States relat
ing to presidential elections and which were
as follows :
Ho It enacted by the scnnto and house of
representatives of HIP United States of
America In congress ntMunihlcd , That seo-
tlons 140 and IK bo amended to read : LS
follows :
"Section 140 The elcutors Hhnll dispose
of tin.ecrtllleiilcrt thus inndo by them In
tlio following manner :
" 1. They shall forthwith , nt government
expense , forward by express to the tu'cro-
tary of state , at the seal of government ,
who Is authorized and directed to deliver
Ilio mum.to the president of the sunate ,
ono of the certlflcate-M.
" 2. They shall forthwith forward by tlio
postoillco , through Ita H-Kl.itry department ,
to the president of tbo si-mite , at the Heat
of government , ono other of the cer-
" : i. They Khali forthwith raiiHo Ilio other
of the ccrtlllcatcH to bo delivered to the
JndKdof that district in wnicn me uiuuium
shall UHHcinhlo.
"See. MS. livery person who , having
lii'Oti delegated pursuant to sections 1IU nnd
111 to deliver e'ertlllcates us therein pro
vided , and having accepted Mich servlce-H
shall refuse or ncKlivt to perform the samo.
shall forfeit the sum of Jl.iAM. "
Suction 2. That sections H.I and HI be ,
and the BIIIIIO are hereby , re-pealed.
No action wan taken on the bill during
the first sicslon of the Klfty-fourth con
gress , and , while Congressman Mercer muy
bo exceedingly anxious to get his bill on
the citleiidar with a favorable report at
tached. It Is extremely doubtful If tint bill
will become a law during the closing days
of the present eongnta. That nome law cor
recting present condiHoiiri relative to can-
vaulting the vote for president and vlco
president should bu passed la admitted ,
but cangremM U a good deal like an old
woman in making changes In tradltlonn
which have grown up In relation to the
executive olllco. Thcso nuMiengurs , under
the law o' 1792 , were created that there
might bo no mistake aa to the choice of
Htutca for president and vlco president. The
railroads and poxtolflco were practically nn-
luiuwn r.nd horseback and coach wcro the
mcutin provided In the i > tlmo-honorc-d days
to transport the inoueciiKor and the vote of
his utato to Washington. Civilization , how-
uviir , ban changed all thta , but has not
fnpcland , ind Shcpard put nip upon ti , , ( .
itn-nt. They cured me without Die ! iit
trouble. I linve enj.iyed better be.ilth .iivl
