IDE EXCELLENCE OF SYUBP OF FIGS is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also to the care and skill with which it is manufactured by scientific processes known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only, and we wish to impress upon all the importance of purchasing the true and original remedy. As the genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured by the California Fie Syrup Co. only, a knowledge of that fact will assist one in avoiding the worthless imitations manufactured by other parties. The high standing of the California Fig Syrup Co. with the medical profession, and the satisfaction which the genuine Syrup of Figs given to millions of families, makes the name of the Company a guaranty of the excellence of its remedy. It is far in advance of all other laxatives, as it acts on the kidneys, liver and bowels without irritating or weakening them, and. it does not gripe nor nauseate. In order to get its beneficial effects, please remember the name of the Company—

THE TROLLEY SHRIKE AT CLEVELAND.

-Soldiers and Police Hold Cleveland Rioters in Check. The presence of more than 1,400 armed in Cleveland had a salutary effect on the rioters. There have since been a few disturbances, such 'as pelting street

rioters and numerous arrests were made. The cavalrymen of Troop A received orders to use their revolvers in case any more cannon firecrackers were thrown lamong their horses. It was found necessary to send a guard of soldiers with a Jmail car from the south end. Lines of “union” buses have been run in competition with those linefe which 13 normal times are patronized especially by •union sympathizers. The buses were sorry affairs, most of them being any ,kind of a wagon which could be found, with boards for seats. Desperate efforts iwere made to obtain good vehicles paralleling the Euclid, Wade Park and Cedar 'lines, the East End lines, but the street company bought up qll owners Both sides declare there is nothing to arbitrate. All admit that the key to the situation is the question which side broke

the agreement upon which the first strike was settled. The men claim the company did so by refusing to make the nonunion men retained in their employ live up to the same rules to which the union men were subjected, thus putting the union men at a disadvantage in the matter of runs. The company claims the men broke the agreement by failing to be joyal to the company and the non-union employes.

WHERE OUR FLEET IS KEPT.

Ship* of Our Navy Scattered in Widely Separated Parta of the Barth. A good idea of the present world-wide interests of the United States is given by the map, which shows in what widelyseparated portions of the earth the ships of the navy are now serving. The larg est squadron in point of numbers is that which is still assembled off the Philippines. Next largest is the North Atlantic squadron, under command of Rear (Admiral Sampson. Most of the ships in this squadron are lying off the coast of New England, the Machias being detailed for duty at San Juan and the Vixen

Of the Pacific squadron, which in point of strength at present ranks next to the fleets on the North Atlantic station, two ships are at Samoa, one en route for Honolulu, aud the remainder Cither at San Francisco or other points on the Pacific roast Of the eight training ships in commission three are on cruises which will bring them daring the summer to the coast of England, while one |s returning from a practice cruise to the Hawaiian Islands.

SAMOA UNDER A NEW RULE.

Triangular Form of Government to Be Abo'iahed in the Islands. The tripartite commission, representing the United States, Great Britain and Germany, has made public the various recommendations which, they suggest regarding the new fond of government most suitable for Samoa. The recommendations are based upon the best features of the British'treaty, and include principal features of the treaty as amended and modified by the commission. The form of government suggested is a departure from that which has prevailed heretofore, and does aw'aly with the tripartite administration. It is , proposed to do away with the triangular form of government and stablish a unity by the appointment of a single administrator chosen by a disinterested power. . This official will be assisted by a council composed of delegates representing the United States, Great Britain and Germany. The chief official will be empowered with a measure of authority which will enable him to end any disputes between the three powers. Should they fail to agree upon the administrator, the King of Sweden and Norway will appoint him. The commissioners fix the salary of the new official at $6,000 a year, and he will execute all laws in force in the Samoan Islands. He will, possess pardoning perwer, and, with consent of a legislative committee of three, may make municipal appointments. The report places the salary' of the chief justice of the Supreme Court at ss,* 000 a year, and it emphasizes the necessity of abolishing kingship and recommends the establishment of districts in the islands, each under supervision of a native <*hief. Copies of the report of the commissioners have been sent to each of the three great powers for approval.

FEVER ATTACKS VETERANS.

Ten Death* and Thirty Sick at National Soldiers’ Home. Yellow fever is raging among old soldiers at the National Soldiers’ Home, which is located midway between Newport News, Va., and Old Point Comfort. Ten deaths have already occurred. Over thirty cases have developed, and the wildest alarm prevails. For several days Dr. Pettus, the quarantine officer stationed at Fortress Monroe, has insisted that the malady was yellow fever, but until Sunday, when the disease was diagnosed, it was not definitely known that it was the genuine death-dealing pest. This conclusion was arrived at by consultation between experts from Washington. The disease is spreading rapidly, but every precaution is being taken to prevent its spread. Quarantine regulations are rigidly enforced, arid Gov. Tyler wired that stringent measures be adopted everywhere on the coast.

TO RANSOM THE SPANIARDS.

Prisoner* in Filipinos’ Hands May Be lo Released. The United States Government is satisfied that the Spanish authorities will arrange for the release of the Spanish prisoners in the custody of the Philippine insurgents through the payment of a ransom, perhaps as much as $3,000,000, the

amount demanded by Aguinaldo. The United States will not offer any objection to the payment of a large sum of money to the insurgents, despite the advantage Which its possession will give. This Government is pledged to do everything in its power to assist Spain in securing the release of its subjects who are within the insurgent lines, and it in.tends to adhere to the pledge. It Is.believed that the money will be of no advantage to Agninaldo on account of the practical stoppage of traffic between the Philippines and the outside world, and, in fact, may prove a detriment to the insurgents through quarrels among their leaders as to its division.

To Settle the State Line.

Gov. McMillin of Tennessee has written a letter to Gov. J. Hoge Tyler of Virginia requesting him to name the date and place for conference to be held to carry out the intention of a bill passed by the Legislature in April for the purpose of definitely settling the between Tennessee and Virginia. ;> ——— 4 Jess Adam* Louisa Ky 'killed l.tl

MISUNDERSTOOD HIS LETTER.

JiatMie Wa* Working in the Navy and Not for a Min later. “There to a young man on board the revenue cutter McCulloch which waa at the battle of Manila, whose mother has a totally erroneous idea of his present occupation,” said a Chicago traveling man who sells goods through the Southern States. “This lady Is one of the nicest, most motherly old souls I meet In my rounds, but She Is at the same time one of the most ignorant of everything except bow to get up a good meal of victuals and give a tired drummer a comfortable bed and clean sheets to sleep in. ‘She has been running a little tavern In a Maryland town for forty years, I suppose, and hasn’t been five mites from home since she was a glrL Her only son, a chap of about 28, on the contrary, has not been within five miles of home for longer than six* months In the last twenty years. However, he keeps her posted as to his whereabouts, and In all his wanderings he does not forget her. When last heard from he got some kind of a position on board the United States revenue cutter McCulloch, the vessel that was Dewey’s dispatch-boat at Manila, and Is at present doing duty between California and the Behring Sea. About a week or ten days ago I took dinner at her place, and a fine country dinner it was, too, and 1 asked her about the boy. “ ‘Oh,’ she responded, with a smile that would make anybody glad to have her for a mother, ‘Jimmie to; doing so well now. He don’t always get into the best places, and I am afraid that sometimes he gets into real bad ones, but he to turning over a new leaf, I guess, for he has gone to work with a preacher. He didn’t mention what denomination he was, but that don’t make any difference, so long as Jimmie just workß for him.’ “ ‘l’m glad to hear it,’ I said. ‘Who is the preacher?’ “ ‘I don’t know, except that his name is the Rev. Cutter McCulloch. I’ll show you Jimmie’s letter.’ “She did so, and there I read briefly, as might be expected: ‘I am now with tfie Rev. Cutter McCulloch and doing well,’ and I smiled softly to myself, but I never said a word to Jimmie’s mother.” —Chicago Chronicle.

The Impossible She.

Miss Mary Kingsley, the Intrepid explorer, has recently related a personal experience in “The Woman at Home” which shows the disadvantage at which a “feminine bachelor” finds herself in a cannibal country. Not, we hasten to add, because a spinster Is less toothsome than a matron, but because cannibals do not understand the bachelor woman. Miss Kingsley had to answer many embarrassing questions In West African wilds as to why she had not a husband and family, and found it awkward to explain her position. On one occasion she was kvg rowed to Andaude by a native who called himself Samuel. His wife sat in the stern of the boat. Presently Samuel began a conversation in his best English. ‘ t *Where be your husband, mar asked he, after looking at Miss Kingsley curiously for a time. “I no got one,” she answered. “No got!” said Sam, paralyzed with astonishment. After an interval he recovered himself and returned to the charge. “No got a husband, ma?” “No,” said Miss Kingsley furiously. “Do you get much rubber round here?” “Me no trade man,” replied Samuel, refusing to fall into her trap for changing conversation. “Why you no got one, ma?” “Because I haven’t,’* retorted Miss Kingsley. But this Intensely feminine reply failed to satisfy Samuel, and she had to run the gantlet of further questions and comments until her adventures In wading swamps, shooting rapids and penetrating forests, In which she had hitherto felt pardonable pride, paled to insignificance beside the greatest of all adventures, to the cannibal mind, that of getting married. Then', to cap It all, It was not long before it was generally believed in West Africa that she was a sort of Dido, Queen of Carthage, in search of a husband!

A Woman's Privilege.

Jack was very indignant. “What do you mean?” he said to his fiancee, “by throwing kisses at my chum; and when I'm with him too?” “Why, Jack, I never did. I threw them to you.” “Blamed funny if a girl can’t even throw kisses straight.”—Detroit Free Press.

Modem Damascus. Compared with Jerusalem, Damascus is Parisian. The Jerusalem air presses heavily with Us melancholy past Half a score of sects make it a rendezvous for pillage or for mummery, and its memorials of imperishable events have to be looked at through the dust of perished dynasties. It is mystic, solemn, arcane. Damascus is practical, positive and even merry. The wail of Israel sounds along the arid valleys of Zion, but Damascus sings a voluptuous carol by means of Its ice-cool, fabled river. The tinkle of its bells mingles forever with the gargle of its waters, and above all you hear the silvery laughter of the Syrian girls and catch -the dancing humor of their dark eyes through their little veils. Jerusalem has its austere character to sustain. Its temples are tombs. Its weight of poignant history keeps It grave. But in Damascus you are under nb obligations to the paat that the present cannot make you forget. Its innumerable shuttles and armories call yon back to the bustling exigencies of life. The coffee bazars defy melancholy. So this stranded city on the shores of time—the gold on whose mosques never corrodes—basks in the sun and eats figs merrily, just as it did when Saul of Tarsus journeyed that way.—Harper's Magazine.

Collecting Bicycle Tax.

The French Government, having experienced considerable difficulty in collecting the tax on bicycles, has introduced a new method of collecting that impost. On payment of the annual cycle tax the authorities provide a small metal plate which the owner Is required to exhibit on a prominent part of his wheel. Any machine not bearing the mark will be seized and its owner summoned and fined. The tax levied is. $1.20 for an ordinary bicycle, $2.40 fdf a tandem, and the same for a motor cycle. A different style of plate will be issued for each year.
