Chinn’s Naval Force.
Within the* last fifteen years China has
acquired a considerable fleet, and many
of her ships an; powerful. The larger ves
sels have been built in European yards,
several in England, but the imperial arse
nal at Foochow has produced torpedo
cruisers, gunboats and dispatch vessels.
China’s naval strength may be expressed
thus: Battleships, one first class, one sec
ond class and three third class; port de
fense vessels, nine; cruisers, nine second
class, twelve third class A and thirty-five
15; torpedo boats, two first-class, twenty-six
second class, thirteen third class and two
smaller boats.
The Japanese Army.
Japan’s army is organized on a uniform
system on the basis of conscription. All
males of twenty years are liable to serve in
the standing army seven years, of which
time three years must be spent in active
service and four years in the army of re
serve. After quitting the army of the re
serve they have to form part of the land
wehr for another five years; and every
male from seventeen up to forty who is not ,
either in the line, the reserve of the land
wehr must belong to the landsturn and is
liable to be called to service in times of na
tional emergency. The army is composed
of the Imperial Guard and six divisions. In
1892 it was as follows:
The Imperial Guard (two brigades or
four regiments of infantry, one squadron
of cavalry, one regiment of artillery and
one company of engineers) consists of 6,207
officers and men, with forty field guns and
558 horses. The six divisions consist of
twelve brigades, or twenty-four regiments,
of infantry (37,925 officers and men), six
squadrons of cavalry (1,302 officers and
men, 1,116 horses, eight regiments of ar
tillery (5,428 oificers and men. 240 field and
120 mountain guns and 1,655 horses), six
battalions of engineers (2,175 officers and
men) and six train squadrons (2,108 officers
and men and 1,746 horses.) Including mis
cellaneous service the total strength on the
peace looting is 3,662 officers, 62,141 non-com
missioned officers and men, 314 field guns, 156
mountain guns and 8,791 horses. There are
besides six battalions of gendarmes (1,058
otiicers and men and 8S horses) and four
battalions of yeomanry (3,290 officers and
men.) The reserve has a strength of 99,554
and the landwehr of 99,176. The rifle used in
the army is the Murata, invented In Japan
a few years ago.
Naval Fleet of Japan.
The Jaj-anese naval fleet consists of five
ships which may be classed as armored
cruisers (one a wooden vessel), nine second
class cruisers (between y.OOO and 5,000 tons)
ana twenty-two vessels which may be rated
as third-class cruisers. 'The torpedo flotilla
includes one first-class boat and forty of
the second class.
GLAD TO GET TRUTH.
English I’opcrn Know Tin t They Huue Been
I niposeiHln.
London, July 28.—The cabinet has de
cided that the only possible course to be
taken in order to secure the passage of
the evicted tenants’ bill Is a summary ap
plication of closure. Simple as the bill is
hundreds of amendments have been filed
to each clause. The conservatives have
contributed the most of these, but the
Farnellite members have submitted some
drastic proposals, which will involve a long
debate if the ministry allows them to be
discussed. For instance, Mr. John J. Clan
cy wants to give the arbitrators under the
bill power to make an unlimited grant to a
reinstated tenant for the purpose of rebuild
ing his house, sowing his crops, purchasing
stock, etc., anti William Redmond has an
amendment which proposes that a planter
tenant refusing to give up his holding shall
pay compensation to the evicted tenant,
under the act of 1870 p-.oyoae a time
Lnr.lL ror each clause with final closure of
the committee stage on August 7th. This
programme contemplates a division on the
third reading of the bill on August 11th,
with a remorseless use of the guillotine to
bring it about.
This throttling of debate will undoubted
ly be held by the peers as an additional
justification of the rejection of the bill by
the house of lords.
Itefusing Ida AVells’s Lies.
The Macon, Ga., correspondent of The
Spectator sends to that paper a denial from
Governor Northen of a story of the lynch
ing and flaying of a negro in that state,
and in the course of the denial Governor
Northen writes:
“I am thoroughly disgusted with the
course of the English papers. lam satis
fied that they do not want to know the
truth.”
To this The Spectator answers: These
stories and other tales of a woman being
roiled in a barrel bristling with nails, ne
gro children being Ivnched tor trivial of
fenses, etc., come from American corre
spondents, who are supplying falsehoods to"
the English press for the sake of obtain
ing a few dollars. The Spectator adds:
•‘We are glad to get reliable contradic
tion of such stories.”
International Conference of \lork
nten.
The international conference of textile
workers has had a four days’ session at
Manchester this week. The British dele
gates to the conference represented 150,000
members, and the French, American and
others 29,000. .Mr. Howard, secretary of the
American Spinners’ Association, advised
tiie delegates to follow tiie example of his
association and boycott all political parties
or factions. In reference to trades union
meetings he enlarged upon the best methods
of securing an international order of unions
and international solidarity of labor. He
read a report from the operatives in the
United States and declared that they in
tended to claim government reforms for the
benefit of workingmen, following the ex
ample of the workingmen of England.
Tiie conference passed a resolution, de
claring for an eight-hour day and invited
the governments of America and Europe to
abolish the laws restricting freedom, which
were driving the workingmen to seek il
legal means for redress.
mass meeting of London dockmen was
held Friday to express their discontent
with the leadership of Ben Tillet. Tillet
was present and attempted to make a
speech, but he was hooted off the platform
and his resignation demanded. Several
speakers accused Tillet of spending his
salary of £3OO a year in reckless living
while his supporters were starving. Tiliet’s
influence as an agitator has w'aned greatly.
Corbett Building' a Chapel.
The sneering comments of a section of
the English and Irish press upon the recent
visit of Pugilist Corbett to Ballinrobe,
where he gava a performance in aid of a
chapel, in course of erection there, have
elicited a letter from Michael Davitt. The
newspapers characterized the performance
as that of “founding a pugilistic chapel.”
Mr. Davitt explains that the performance
was not pugilistic but theatrical, and was
conducted by the same company that per
formed with Mr. Corbett in the Drury Lane
theater. “Is there anything wrong?” asks
Mr. Davitt, in giving the proceeds of the
performance for the purpose of building a
chapel.” Mr. Davitt adds that the dis
trict is very poor and the contribution was
a veritable godsend. He says he never saw
Mr. Corbett nor had he ever seen a prize
fight, but he praised the generosity of Mr.
Corbett in helping to build a chapel in the
t avn which was the birthplace ot his
father.

Must Have Some Bill.
The members of the house are getg !
very nervous on the situation, and are,- I
ginning to clamor for a settlement of t. I
issue. They all realize the fact that if tij
bill goes back to the senate again it V. # |
be indefinitely postponed.

democratic we will make ourselves, ri
lous and the laughing stock of the wois.
I am for everything in the shape of tariff,
reform we can get.”
He V.HI Sign Any Bill.
This covers the sentiment of eight out of
ten of the congressmen on the democratic
side of the house. There will be an agree
ment on the tariff bill before the coming
week is out, and the senate bill, with prob
ably a very few immaterial changes, will be
adopted.
w nenever the conference committee agrees
that settles the question. The report is
then made to each house of the agreement,
but there is no way to vote down the bill,
it will go immediately to the president. I
have it almost from the president himself
that he will sign the bill that is presented.
"While he is very much in favor of free coal,
he will not refuse to sign the bill if there is
a duty on it, not even if that duty was 75
cents a ton,” one of his friends remarked
today.
Tiie prospects are now good, unless there
is some unforeseen trouble ahead, for an
adjournment about the 10th of August.
Home’s Public Building.
The supervising architect will advertise
this week for bids for the proposed public
building at Rome. He has written to Judge
Maddox that the structure will be b gun
within forty days. The contract for the en
tire building will be let in thirty days after
bids are advertised for. Fifty thßisand
dollars has been appropriated for this build
ing and better results can be had, so the
architect claims, if the contracts are not let
out piecemeal.
CHISP AT THE*WHITE IIOLSE.
The Speaker and tiie President Dis
cuss (lie Tariff Hill Situation.
Washington, July 26.—Speaker Crisp was
at the white house today and his visit
with the president caused a renewal of
tiie comment as to’the interest of the ad
ministration in support of the tariff po
sition of the house. Mr. Crisp declined to
say anything concerning tiie conference,
or to even intimate whether the tariff dead
lock between the two houses was the sub
ject of discussion.
Messrs. Kilgore, of Texas, and Bynum, of
Indiana, the latter a member of the ways
and means committee,.also saw the presi
dent today. Mr. Kilgore is endeavoring to
stem the tide in the iiouse which has set*
in’for the'last two days toward a conces
sion to most, if not all, that the senate
asked. He thinks that the house will yet
win the struggle, and so told the president.
To his caller, Mr. Cleveland expressed the
same determination shown in the letter to
Chairman Wilson. It is evident to them
that he was very fixed in his view of
the justice of the contention he had pre
sented, and that there was no disposition
to waver from it, except through such mu
tual compromises as would give the house
at least a good share of the concessions.
Free from Yellow Fever.
Washington, July 28.—Surgeon General
Wyman, of the marine hospital service,
has received reports from State Health
Officer I’orter of Florida, Surgeon Murray
and Sanitary Inspector Guitaras, who have
been investigating the nature of the tever
at Key West. The reports agree that the
fever is “dengue,” and state that there
is no suspicion of yellow fever at Key
West Surgeon General Wyman said today
that there was no portion of lhe United
States suspected of being infected with

knock into smithereens «uch foreign im

a nation, a great maritime power, and we
will, none of the islands of the Pacific would
decline us sheltering harbor, or supply for
our ships. What though they belonged to
other nations, they would sell us all we
want. It is not necessary to own a store in
order to purchase goods from it.
Hawaiian Progress.
These are venerable islands. Those who
can translate the language of the rocks
and the language of human bones, say that
these islands have been inhabited 1,400 years
at least. When found In 1775, they were
old places of human habitation. The most
unique illustration in all the world of what
pure and simple Christianity can do is
here. Before the supernatural force began
infanticide was common, and not by milder
forms of assassinatiwi, but buried alive,
Demented people were murdered; old peo
ple were allowed to die of neglect. Polyga
my in its worst form reigned, and it was as
easy for a man to throw away his wife as
to pitch an apple core into the sea. Super
stition blackened the earth and the heavens
Christianity found the Sandwich islands a
hell and turned them into a semi-heaven.
As in all the other regions where Chris
tianity triumphed, it was maligned by those
who came from other lands to preach their
iniquities. Loose foreigners were angerec
because they were kindred in their disso
luteness by a new element they had never
before confronted.
“There is Honolulu,” cried many voices
this morning from the deck of the “Ala
meda.” These islands, called by many an
archipelago, 1 call them the constellation
of the Pacific, for they seem not so much
to have grown up, as alighted from tht
heavens. The bright, the redolent, the
forested, the picturesque Hawaiian islands.
They came in upon us as much as we came
in upon them in the morning. Captain
Cook no more discovered them in 1778 than
we discovered them today. He saw them
forthe first time for himself,and we see them
for the first time this morning for our
selves. More fortunate are we than Cap
tain Cook. He looked out upon them from
a filthy boat, and wound up his
experiences by t'urnisb’ng his bod>
as the chops and steak of a sav
age’s breakfast. We from a gracefu
ship alight amid hi-rbage and arborescence
and shall depart with .the good wishes am
prayers from all the islanders.

Malaria is a disease which follows dry
and hot weather in the middle or latter
part of the summer. Sometimes there are
distinct chills, but often malaria is attend
ed by symptoms which are quite likely to
ue umiicLiveii iv/i uuivi v
chronic form of malaria there is usual!
biliousness, constipation, loss of appetit
frequent headache, dullness, cold sweat
with slight chilly sensation, furred tongu
s.-anr. hich-colored urine, and general weal
It is a fact well known to the medical
profession that quinine will not cure this
form of malaria. It is just here that l’e-ru
na as a malaria cure shows its great su
periority over quinine.
It will cleanse the system or every par
ticle of malarial poison. It restores the ap
petite, clears the befogged senses, and
brings back a hopeful state of mind, which
malaria is sure to destroy. In these cases
two tablespoonfuls of Fe-ru-na should be
taken before each meal. This dose should
be graduallv increased to three tablespoon
fuls at each dose if the symptoms do not im
prove soon. Man-a-lin should be taken ac
cording to the directions on the bottle if
the bowels are constipated.

and qcute malaria sent free to any address

There is some very good laughing talent
in this section. On any large day you can
hear the lung-elongators at their pleasure,
and some of the labor laughers are to be
heard any day. Some men laugh to appear
agreeable; some laugh because their tickle
box is taxed. Some enterprising person
could make some interesting estimation on
this subject.
