Mr. Eben Pollard, who came here from White Water, Wis., about a year and a half ago to suserintend the erection aud operation of the Weston Paper j.Co's mill, has resigned his position. He leaves the company today, but will' remain iu Greenfield a short time, or until he can come into possession of his property in White Water, which is now occupied by a tenant. Mr. Pollard is 7.a thoroughly competent superintendent aud as fine_a gentleman as we ever hal the pleasure of meeting. He is one of those kind, honest, reliable, noble-hearted men that you CAN always tie to. The KKI'UULICAX is indeed sorry to lose Mr. and Mrs. Pollard from our city, as they were kind friends and neighbor. They prefer, however, to go back among their old friends aud ••acquaintances, where they lived so long •'an., are known so well. May prosperity and happiness attend them. Mr. Pollard will be succeeded here by G. J. West from Lafayette, who begins Monday.

Beware Of Ointments For CatarrliJ^Tliat Contain Mercury.

As mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous surfaces. Such articles should never be used except on prescriptions from reputable physicians, as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Hall's Catarrh Cure manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio., contains DO mercury, and is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. In buying Hall's Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co. Testimonials free. JSsF'Sold by Druggists, price 75c per bottle

ARMISTICE DECLARED

Lull in the War Between Japan and China.

HOSTILITIES WILL NOW CEASE.

Tlx- Armistice Will li» Effective Until tlio I'oace Negotiations Are Completed —The Attempted Assassination of Li Ilung I

Chant Jtrouglit About, the Unexpected ivent T::i-\Van lioinbiirded. TOKIO, March 30.—The emperor of Japan has declared unconditional armisrice. China made the oiler of the armisticu ami the peace plenipotentiary of Japan was empowered by the enipei'ur to accept it without condition. This was uone in view of tlie '•unexpected event"' that happened, viz: The attempted assassination of Li Jriang ClK.ng.

The armistice, it is said. Avill be efiective until the peace negotiations are coucludi'd. Alter a meeting oi the pen'-.- ambassadors had been decided un, Chiua recpiesied the declaration ol an armistice, but tins request had not been aeied upon favorably by Japan. His government had not been inclined to stop warlike operations except on corlain conditions. I

These

conditions are not known, but

it is suggested that probably the occupamm of Taku might have been one, apan wishing something as a guarantee ill the llluigncss suit I earnestness of t-ne Chinese lor an anuca jle settieinent of the war. Cliina evnleiilly could not arrive at a conclusion to agree to the stipulations demanded by Japan and the attempt ol: the lite of the Chinese peace ambassador solved the problem for the time being and hostilities will be suspended. There will be no withdrawal of the Japanese troops from Chinese lerritory, however.

'Comments of the London Times.

where with general satisfaction. The more prudent Japanese statesmen have probably become convinced that the occupation of Pekin would entail momentous consequences with which they are not prepared to deal. The idea that the mikado's action was the result of a generous impulse connected with Li Hung Chang can hardly bo accepted as probable. It can not be hastily assured that the war will end until Japan's demands are heard."

Why It Wiis Declared.

ST. PICTKKS.ISL'IW, March 30.—Advices received here from Tokio says that the decision of the Kmperor of Japan to declare an unconditional armistice, was greatly duo to the extreme indignation aroused by the attack on Viceroy Li Hung Chang.

THE NEWS REACHES WASHINGTON.

Jt Was Welcomed at the Chinese Legation but Ollicials Were silent. WASHINGTON, March 30.—The declaration of an armistice was most wel- I come news to the Chinese legation, although it was accepted with the stolidly and passive dignity, which is characteristic of the race. The first word of the armistice reached the legation through the Associated Press. Mr. Yang Yu had received no official communication from China, nor from the state depart- I lnent. Under these circumstances, he I asked to be excused from discussing the situation.

The numerous suite of the legation, comprising many secretaries, attaches I aud translators, were evidently glad that the tedious and discouraging struggle was at an end. They discussed its effects upon their countrymen at home. There was some doubt as to the meaning of the term "unconditional" armistice, although this was accepted as meaning that recent -.events, including probably the shooting of Prince Li, had induced the envoys to agree to an armistice before agreeing exactly on the terms of peace. It is folt the arrangement of these terms will still be a difficult task.

The feeling in the interior of China, where the ell'ects of the war have not been felt, is very strong against a cession of territory. Moreover, the payment of a cash indemnity will necessitate tho imposition of heavy taxes on the people, and consequent depression. These considerations, together with tho direct losses and ravages of war, make the commercial revival of China so problematic that the officials would not discuss it, beyond mentioning the difficulties in the way of restoration of commerce and internal prosperity.

the

SqnatUrs Must lleiiioveil From Yunktou Hcsurvatioii. WASHINGTON, March 30.—Agent L.

A. Smith of the Yankton reservation in South Dakota, telegraphed the interior department yesterday that a large number of settlers have squatted on the reservation, and that tney have been ordered off, but that the order could not be enforced. Later he sent the following dispatch: "The state of South Dakota is taking steps to appropriate a large part of this land for seiiool purposes, in violation of the agreement between the government and Indians. The Indians protest against this action, and I concur."

No action has yet boon taken on either of these dispatches. Secretary Smith said last night that law and order would be enforced at tlie reservation at all hazards, and that all aHsistance found necessary would bo given by the department.

The land which the state is seeking to legislate to its own use is the most dosirable on the reservation, and the department will take prompt steps to seoure the defeat of the state's plans. Tho reservation will soon be oponed to settlement, and proclamations declaring it subject to entry is now pending the action of the president.
