(From a Staff . Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Bept. 10. (Special.) There It
ssld to be a tllght proepect of tha Ne
braska National guard not participating In
tha forthcoming military encampment at
Fort Riley. The unexpected hitch comet In
tha Inability of the authorities thus tar
to complete arrangementa with the rail
road for the transportation of the troops.
The soldiers, almost to the last man, are
anxious to go Into the encampment and
await the pleasure of the next legislature
for their compensation, but there Is some
doubt as to whether the railroads and sup
ply housea will extend the necessary credit.
Adjutant General Colby will hold another
conference with the rallroadt tomorrow or
next day and It will then be finally deter
mine whether or not the troops are to
bo moved. In past years the railroads
have extended such credit and for this
reason It It thought they will do the tame
this year.

Psnther. which had previously attempted
to board Crete-s-Plerrot, the latter being
moored to the shore, reversed Its engines
when the magailne exploded, and one hour
afterward fired thirty shots from its guns
at Crete-a-Pierrot In order to finish the
work of sinking tbe vessel. Panther then
left Gonalves.
It Is claimed hero that the rifles and
machine guns of Crete-a-Plerrot have been
saved.
The body of Admiral Kllllck was recov
ered Saturday afternoon and was burled the
aame evening.
The aurgeon of Crete-a-Plerrot, who wat
ssleep In his rsbln, and two sailors of tbat
vessel also perished.

tlen on Friday.
A newspaper of Port-au-Prlnce July 11
contained the following telegram from Ad
miral Kllllck to General Bolsrond Canal,
provisional president of Haytl:
GONAIVES, July 12 Rolsrond Canal.
Port-au-Prlnre: Killlrk does not fear any
thing. Will blow up ship and company for
the sake of the national honor. You alone
remain responsible.
Previous to sending the message to Gen
eral Bolsrond Canal, It appears. Admiral
Killlrk had received orders from the latter
to give up his vessel to Lieutenant Retd,
his second in command, and it was also re
ported that the provisional government had
requested tbe United Statea gunboat Ma
rietta and the French cruiser d'Asaas to
capture Crete-a-Plerrot, hence the defiant
dispatch to General Bolsrond Canal.
Paper Blockades ot Rccoarnlaed.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 10. Confirmation
has come to the State department from Min
ister Powell of tbe press report that tbe
Haytlan government has declared Gonalves
and some of the other Haytian ports, which
are in the hands of the Firmlnlsts, closed
to commerce.
The right of s government to close or
open ports in normal conditions never has
been questioned. But as certain South and
Central American republics have shown a
disposition to avail themselves of the
privilege In rase of revolutionary troubles
to close ports which they did not actually
control, the State department has adopted
the policy of declining to rernrnlr.e such
decrees, which after all, are nothing more
than paper blockades.
Therefore, this last Haytlan order will
not be allowed to Interfere with commerce
with the ports named unless the Haytlan
government can, by
display of naval
torces, euner drive on tne insurgents or
maintain an actual blockade
BERLIN, Sept. 10. Some of the news
papers here having expressed the opinion
that Germany would claim damages agulnst
the Haytlan government for the arms And
ammunition, captured by Admiral Kllllck
on board the German steamer Markoman
nla, the semi-official Cologne Oasette re
plies, apparently inspired, to the effect
that the matter was settled so far as Ger
many was concerned with the destruction
of Crete-aPlerrot, adding that the urma
and ammunition captured belonged to the
Haytlan government and were merely
under transport from one Haytlan port to
another.

Main street, Elwood, Ind., writes:
"After a lapse of one year I take great
pleasure In adding my endorsement to the
many thousands, for bringing relief snd a
complete cure o our little daughter Helen,
who has been sick all her life with catarrh
and stomach trouble.
"I was Induced by one of our friends to try
Peruna, and finally decided to do so, but not
until I wrote you asking your opinion of
the case. You said that by following direc
tions I might be able to save our little girl,
snd to advise you as often as the case re
quired. 'When she commenced on the sec
ond bottle the change was remark
able, and in three and one-half
months you were willing to dis
charge the case as cured. I could
not bring myself to giving a vol
untary endorsement of Peruna until
I was satisfied beyond a question
of a doubt that little Helen was
completely cured, and the disease
eradicated from her system.
"We keep Peruna In our home. In fact
could not do without it. I have alBO advlaed
many others to give, Peruna a trial, and In
every case the result has been as satisfac
tory as mine..-, I will gladly reply to sll let
ters from anyone' desiring to write me re
garding Peruna." Wm. Q. Burress.
Peruna is a blessing to the little ones,
in the first place, it is not a disagreeable
medicine to take.. In the second place, it
produces no ill effects upon the stomsch.

TROUBLE OF CH1LDREH
I Helen A M Burress- j
It neither weakens, nor Irritates, nor de
rsnges the sppetlte. Peruna Is not one of
the drugs that must hurt in order to cure.
Immediately upon taking Peruna, the pa
tient begins to feel better. No symptoms
follows the use of Peruna except an im
provement of the disease, and once Intro
duced Into the home. It nearly alwaya stays.
The experience of Mr. Burress of In
diana, with the use of Peruna In the cure
of his little child Helen. Is an experience,
that has been repeated many thousand times
throughout the length and breadth of the
United States.
If your child Is sick and you hardly know
what the trouble is, you may be quits sure
that catarrh In some form or phase is at
the bottom of It. If this be true, Teruna
wilt be sure to bring relief. It Is well
worth giving a trial.
If you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Feruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full
statement of your case and he will be
pleased to give you his valuable advise
gratis.
Address Dr. Hartman, President of The
Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio.
