. A irrsat sufferpr of catarrh sent mo a
letter statin that ho frit ah though his
nose was In a vise; that ho had been
unable to breathe through his none for
nearly three years. That he hud had two
operations and been treated by a number
of specialists, but every time Ve caught
a cold the air passages of the noso be
came so greatly Inflamed that he wns
obliged to breathe through his mouth.
That there was constant dropping of mu
cous Into his throat and stomach, which
produced Dyspepsia, Insomnia anil Mel
ancholy. That It had affected his healing
co that he was almost deaf. That he had
noticed my advertisement claiming that
my Paw-Paw and Inhaler would positively
cure Catarrh, and with but little faith
he concluded to make one more effort
to tret well; and much to his astonishment
lie began to Improve after the tlift d.iy.
and. although he has been using this
trsntment less than two weeks, he Is now
able to breathe through his nose, the
Catarrhal discharges having almost ceased,
and his hearing; has been quite restored.
This case in similar to thousands of
others. Catarrh Is not only a vl.-e on
the nose and air pressures, but Is a vice
against good morals and Judgment. It
My Inhaler sends clouds of medi
cated vapor to all the diseased parts
that cannot be reached In any other
way. It reaches the sore spots, heals
the raw places and forms a new mem
brane. It positively kills all germs
and stops u II Catarrhal discharges.
It sweetens tho breath and prevents
deafness.
The ONLY
COMPLETE
CATARRH CURE
Is a vice to be sick from any disease If
you can be cured. It Is a vice to have
a foul breath If It can be sweetened.
It Is a vice to suffer with Indigestion If
you can be cured.
Nothing breeds gloom and unhapplness
so sun ly, nothing untlts a man for busi
ness or social life so completely as this
dread disease Catarrh.
Home physicians claim that more than
nine-tenths of Stomach troubles and
Nervousness Is due to some Catarrhal
condition of the system. Specialists of
the highest repute declare that Catarrh
Is a germ disease, and that the only way
to cure It Is by purifying the blood and
lulling the. germ by local applications.
Thi v are absolutely right. I am prov
ing It every day with my combination
treatment. Jlv Paw-Paw positively puri
ties the blood and drives all Catarrhal
poisons from the system.
Paw-Paw makes one eat It digests all
they do eat. It makes one sleep. It puts
life and vitality Into the weak and de
bilitated, makes the old feel young.

ARMY AND NAVY BOARD MAKES REPORT
VKnds that Cadets of lloth Ilranehes
i of Service Xeed L inger Courses
w u ? n a -huh
at Schools.
WASHINGTON; March 31. The Wnr de
partment has made public the report of the
joint board of army and navy officers con
vened by special orders of February 8, to
take into consideration the physical train
ing of cadets at the military academy nnd
of midshipmen at the naval academy. The
report Is endorsed by President Roosevelt,
who directs that the recommendations be
carried out and also that a further report
on progress be submitted to him sixty days
hence. Secretary Taft approves the rec
ommendations except as to tho suggestion
that the sword of the army be made a
part of equipment of every Bhlp In the
navy for use of officers and landing parties.
The report Is very long. Its most Impor
tant feature Is the recommendation that the
axt.of Japanese Jlu Jitsu be Incorporated In
ths course with boxing and wrestling.
The board reports that It Is of not great
value as a means of physical development,
but the knowledge of tho system would
inspire the individual with a degree of
elf-conlidence. The board recommends
that physlcul training bo extended over
the four years' course at each academy
m.ieuu ok una year as at present.
"Colli Steel" Is I setul.
In discussing the use of swords and after
recommending their use on ships, to which
objection Is made by Acting Secretary
Darling, the report says:
As regards the army, it may be said that
as far as evidence at the disposal of the
board ge, tho sentiment of the armv Is
largely against the use of any sword at
al by officers In the Meld, the Idea being
to replace the sword by the revolver. This
was the practice In the Philippines by al
most universal consent and without any
- . . . I s
orders In connection therewith emanating
from superior authority.
This widespread opinion against the
sword and In favor of the revolver only is
founded upon service under abnormal con
ditions. In a country largely underbrush,
and against a foe who rarely stood against
a determined advance, and with a sword
which Itself was an Inferior weapon.
A careful examination of the lighting In
tho Kusso-Japanese war under modern
conditions as regards firearms and under
greatly improved conditions as regards
artillery Are, has shown conclusively that
the sword is not a weapon of the past.
The Increased killing power of the maga
zine rille and rapid-fire field guns has op
erated to force both the Japanese and Rus
sian armies, in order to minimize their
losses, to make many night attacks. These
night attacks are not surprises by small
bodies of troops, but movements of divisions
nnd armies in battle formation. The re
sult of this development has been to force
the frequent employment of the bayonet
by the enlisted man and of the sword by
the officer, nnd to increase their Impor
tance as fighting weapons.
The losses due to "cold steel" In this
war will probably never be accurately
known, but enough tins already been re
ported officially on both sides to show that
the Rword has been effectively used, par
ticularly in these night attacks. These
being facts, It follows as a corrollary that
the sword adopted for officers of the army
should be a fighting weapon, and not
merely a badge of office.
As to Physical Training;.
Other points of Interest contained in the
report are these:
The training of tho students as future
Instructors In physical training.
The board believes that the best physical
development can be obtained only by a
study of the physical conditions of each
cadet or midshipman and the use by him
of exercises such as will tend to remedy
his Physical defects. This Involves the
careful and periodical examination and
measurement of each individual and the
prescription for him of suitable exercise.
The board Is thoroughly convinced that
In order to secure the proper physical de
velopment of the average student a mini
mum of time to be devoted to compulsory
physical exercise is two hours each week
during the entire course.
The regular practice of Judicious nnd
healthful exercises by cadets and midship
men throughout their four years' course
will develop habits nnrt exerclee In youth
which will tend to be prolonged Into later
life, and thus have a marked effect In
raising the standard of physical condition
and physical endurance in the officers in
the united service.
The board finds that the present force
of instructors In physical training at each
academy Is Inadequate to its needs, even
with the limited amount of time now de
voted to this work. With the extension of
time recommended nbove, at least three
additional Instructors will be required at
each ncademy.

POLICE WATCH TERRORISTS
Russian Officials Believed to Have Frus
trated Plot on TrtpofTs Life.
TWO ARRESTS HAVE BEEN MADE IN CASE
Man rosins; as Messenser and One
In Whose Room Itonihs Were
Found Are Taken Into
t'nsttxly.
8T. PETERSBURG, .March 31.-The au
thorities continue to find evidence of ter
rorist activity In St. Petersburg, and In
spite of the precautions of the police an
other tragedy may occur at any moment.
The fighting organization Is known to have
on Its condemned list thirty persona,
headed by Grand Duke Alexis and Gov
ernor General Trepoff, tut the police, al
though they have arrested several persons
with bombs In their possession and have
taken many suspects Into custody', have
been completely baffled In their efforts to
discover the invisible hand which Is direct
ing the campaign of the terrorists. The
police theory continues to be that central
organizations of thore engaged In the con
spiracies are at Geneva and at Paris, and
thai the men arrested In Russia are agents
selected to execute the sentences. When
arrested these agents Invariably are true
to their oaths and refuse to divulge any
thing, no mutter to what ordeal they are
subjecud.
Only yesterday the police by chance
foiled what Is believed to have been a plot
to kill Governor General Trepoff. Accord
ing to the latest details of the affair a man
waa observed during the morning lounging
at the corner of Great Morskala street,
about a block away from the entrance to
General Trcpoff's chancellery. The man
attracted no attention at first, as he wore
the red cap which is the distinctive mark
of the employes of the messenger company,
whose messengers wtand at every street
corner, but at last a policeman, noticing
that the man's face was not familiar to
him, approached tho supposed messenger
with the object of interrogating hiin. The
man thereupon became alarmed, drew a
revolver and fired at the policeman, but
missed him. The policeman then over-
pdwered his assailant and arrested him.
Bombs Arc Found.
Almost at the same hour that the bogus
messenger was being arrested on Great
Morskala street the police, who have been
keeping a sharp lookout at the hotels and
lodging houses, discovered several bombs
of the terrorist pattern in a trunk belong
ing to a stranger who occupied furnished
rooms in a houe-e, In Pushkin street, but
who was absent at the time the police
searched his apurtment. Tho man was
promptly taken into custody when he re
turned and last night two individuals who
called to see him were also arrested. All
the prisoners declined to give any account
of themselves.
Although the police are reticent, refusing
to furnish any Information or give the
names of tfie prisoners In the two inci
dents, the arrest of the man on Great
Morskala street and the finding of the
bombs are undoubtedly connected. The
man captured by the police on Great
Morskala street probably was on the look
out for some mark by which to distinguish
General Trepoff's carriage, as several
vehicles of the same style are constantly
before the governor general's chancellery
and when he drives out they circle around
and leave In different direction, so that it
is almost impossible in the confusion to
determine definitely which carriage con
tains the governor general. It is said that
General Trepoff a fortnight ago received a
letter Informing him that this ruse was
unavailing, as he would be killed in his
bed.
Peasants Make Demand.
Five hundred peasants of the district of
Vardzla, in the Caucasus, have surrounded
the Greek monastry at Vardzla and de
mand that It be handed over to them, with
the title deeds.
The police have Instructed all lodging
houses to provide themselves with dupli
cate keys of all rooms, drawers and closets
in order that the effects of suspects may
be freely searched.
Talks of Finnish Affairs. '
ST. PETERSBURG, March Sl.-Senator
Llnder, vice president of the administrative
department of the Finnish senate, who Is
here, is much encouraged by the effect on
Finnish publlo opinion of Emperor Nicholas'
answer to the petition of the Finnish Diet.
He believes the concessions regarding mili
tary service and the removability of judges
will go far toward allaying the discontent
In Finland. The conscription question has
been a burning one with the Flnlanders,
and Senator Llnder's advice's from Helslng
fors indicate that there was general re
joicing when the decision of the emperor
became known. Ills majesty's decision
was taken at a meeting of the Imperial
council, at which Prince John Oblolensky,
governor general of Finland; the ministers
of finance and war, Senator Linder and
Councillor Frieese participated. The Im
perial manifesto will probably be Issued to
morrow and will be submitted Immediately
to the Diet, whose reign may be prolonged
so as to enable that body to accomplish
needed legislation.
Benator Llnder says all but & small mi
nority In the Diet favor acceptance of the
concessions and the resumption of work.
Regarding the other points of the petitions,
Senator Under believes concessions may
come later.
JAPS BEGIN ADVANCE
(Continued from First Page.)
Interested commercially in China were
vitally concerned in safeguarding the open
door policy to which they were pledged,
and must ba consulted as to the future
status of Manchuria and collateral ques
tions, such as the possible Internationaliza
tion of the eastern Chinese railroad, etc.
He desired it to be understood, however,
that he did not mean that the powers
would attempt to rob Japan of the fruits
of victory. Such a congress might be held
after Russia and Japan bad concluded
peace.
PARIS, March 31.' Whatever hopefulness
the peace situation may have had some
days ago, the situation has now completely
changed, and there Is every prospect that
the war will drag on again. Consequently
dispatches appearing in America saying
that Foreign Minister Delcasse and Dr.
Motono, the Japanese minister to France,
have been conferring at the former's house
relative to peace are Inaccurate. The
foregoing view of the sdrViation Is taken by
the parties Immediately concerned, and it Is
asserted with the authority of the Foreign
office and the Japanese legation.
The Associated Press correspondent has
talked lengthily with Dr. Motono during the
last few days, and the situation heretofore
set forth In these dispatches reflected the
view of Dr. Motono and others directly
concerned, although with the usual reserva
tion of not using their names. However,
In view of the continued reports that there
were indications that Minister Delcasse and
Dr. Motono were taking an active part In
the negotiation, the correspondent of the
Associated Press called at the Japanese
legation today and requested Dr. Motono
to furnish a decisive statement which would
put at rest all misunderstandings.
Accordingly the minister gave the As
sociated Press the following categorical
statement, which was Ukcn in writing and
may be accepted as authoritatively clear
ing the situation:
I tell you explicitly that there are no
penie negotiations or preliminaries for
Initiating peace. Negotiations In progress
at this time, so far as I am aware, and I
believe mv Information to be complete. I
am not desirous of discussing the general
question of pi-ace. for. owing to the com-
fil"te absence of negotiations or prellnilnar
es toward negotiations, that question can
only be academic and without practical
bearings.
The statements that I have conferred
with M. Delcasse at bis residence are
false and ire calculated to confute a
situation which Is perfectly plain. There
Is no representative of Japan authorized
at this time to discuss p-ace or foreshadow
In the least what conditions the Japanese
government might consider If the negotia
tions assumed a practical stage. On the
contrary Jap:in is now engaged in con
ducting a military campaign -nd It will
resolutely ptoceed with that Important
step.
It can be added that the introduction of
the foregoing dispatch, as well as the por
tion quoted, was submitted to Dr. Montonl,
who approved every word. It was similarly
submitted to the Foreign office, where It
was aprpoved throughout. Therefore the
dispatch can be accepted ns being In the
highest degree authoritative.
WASHINGTON, March J'.. M. Jusse
rand, the French ambassador, is of the
opinion that peace Is not In Imminent pros
pect between Russian and Japan. He so
expressed himself after a visit to President
Roosevelt today to bid him goodby befors
the president goes on his southwestern trip,
and said that both combatants at this time
appeared to be bent on continuing hostili
ties for a satisfactory adjustment of their
difficulties He added that he did not talk
with tho president on the subject of media
tion and he did not believe that the Wash
ington government had yet concerned itself
officially In any movement looking to a
cessation of the war. It was learned, how
ever, that the prospects of peace were dis
cussed at length.
