STARVATION IN PORTO RiCO

Desperate State of the People May Lead to an Insurrecticn.

New York, April 8—The Herald says: Brigadier General Roy Stone w ll go to Washiogton tomorrow where he wil! call the attention of the President to the etarvation snd§distress in Porto Rico. He thinks that the desperate state of the people may ead to insurrection it relief is not forth» cming. He has just returned from @ journey of ten days through the totrior of the island. The general was attacl ed to the department of agriculture | efore the war and durirg hostilities he was in Porio Rico as # wember of General Miles’ staff.

Tha last trip was made with a party of capitalists and railroad men. He was aleo invited by Major Generel! Henry to give advice upon the cousiruction cf roads through the island.

“Persons are dying from starvation all through the interior,” said Genera} Stone’ last evening. “Inthe district of Aguas Banas there were many deaths. The judge of the district of Comerio showed me a book in which he bad recorded the names of many who bad died from lack of tood.

“General Grant reported 39 deaths from

starvation in one district. [ saw hundreds of patives emaciated and weax. When | lett Porto Reo there were one bhuodred

thousand person there who had bread nor meat for two weeks.

“ This state ofaffairs is ‘'argely due to the short ¢ flee cropend the ruinous cora petition ot Brazil. Porto Rico coffee is selling at from seven toe ght cents at the seaporte, snd the travsportation§ takes nea'ly all out of this snm. There is no protit for owners of tie plantations, In- deed, | saw mang -lantations overgrown with weeds.

“The natives cannot

everything in hie power to alleviate the dis- tress.

“It is difficult, however, to reach the interior. The supplies are sent to military poets and distributed as well as possible. Su 1 Major General Henry cannot go on in

bis way. His money, derived from the customs, will give out soon. He cannot .eke this people an object of charity, He ss found work for at least 5,000 im road

The GreatFire at the Windsor, NY.,

Was an awful calamity, but cannot te remedied. Now, Catarrbozone can remedy and is a positive cure for catarrh and kindred dreaded diseases. This statement is backed up by bushels ef testimonials, which we have and can produce. Snuffe, ointments, washes, etc., have beed proved useless in giving relief or curing catarrh, bronchitis, irritable throat. nasal and ear passages, but Catarrhozone, the ozonated air cure, does not ony give immediate relief, but ‘effects a permanent cure.

Fountain of Health and New Life

paine’s Celery Compound is the Mightiest and Wost

~

Edward E. Phelps, M.D.,L. L Dyce leading professor in the celeurated D.rc- mouth Medical College, first pres rbd what is knowo inevery tome of the civi lized world as Paine’s Celery Com ound, @ positive cure ior the cc:mmon ailmen 8 aod diseases of sprins, such as blvod troubles, kidney and i:ver complain +, dyepepsie, nervous discase+, neur lga ano rheumatism.

As a spring melicine, Paine’» C.Jey Compound now occupies first place in i « estimation of the medical men. It has been tested by members of the profession in cases where ordinary prescriptivus have failed, and iv every instance tbe wonderful compcund has maintained its claims aod banished disease.

The action of Paine’s C-lery Com- pound on the pervous syfiew ip spring time ie marvellous io health producing results. It quickly purifies the viuiated and impure biood, braces the nerves, r= builds the tiesues, a id~to flesb and weigh’, increases the appetite, augments the pow- ers cf assimilation, and keeys the whule digestive organism io proper repair.

Paine’s Celery Compound bas done a graod work for mi.lions 1p the past. Surely this is the best guarantee for those who are pew ailing snd pbyrica'ly broken down. Every city, town and vijlage inthis vast Dominion can furnish its preofs of che virtues of Paine’s Celery Cuompound— well attested cures,

A few bottles of the great spring medi- cine used at this time will give to every man and woman the bleesing they are ao earnestiy seekiung—true health.

The old man who Jooks out at the world with clear and healthy, eyes cannot belp feeling great gratification atthe thought that bis children bave inherited from bim vo weakness nor tendency to disease. The healthy old man is the mao who has thronghout his life kept bis digestion good and hie blooa pure. Not one ina thousand doe: it. Germs go through the healthy bodv without effect.

THE EXPANSION POLICY

Mr. Bryan’s Opinion About the Tak- ing of the Philippines.

Cuicaco, Apri]!8.—The Hon. William J. Bryan is to publish a book entitled “Republic or Empise—the Philippine question,” in which be discusses the terr « torial expansion from every stundpoint, his argument beirg tupplemenied by cvapters dealing wii the various phases of the subject by Andrew Carnegie, George F. Hoar, Johbu W. Daniels, Henry M. eller aud other statesmen and schoars,

As to imperialitm, Mr. Bryan eave: “ lwperialism fiois its mepirat on in dol- lars, notio duty. lt is not our-duty to burden our peepie with increased taxes in order iO give « few speculators an oppor~ tunity for exploitations, and it is put our duty to sacrifice the best blood of our na- tion in tropical jangle- in an attempt to ctifle the very sentiments which have given vitality to American insiitutic ns; it is not our duty todeny to the peo; le of the Philippines the rights for which our forefathere fought fro» Bunker Hill to Yorkiown. Imperialism has been dea- cribed ‘as the white man’s burder,’ but 6iuc2 it crushes the wealth producer be~ neath ao increasing weight of taxes, it migbt with more propriety be called ‘ tbe poor man’s load.’

“If the peace commissioners had de- manded a harbor and coaling station in the Philippines and kad required Spain to surrender the rest of the land to the F.lipino , a3 she surrendered Cuba to the Cutans, we would not now be consider- og how to let goof the iclands. If the som of twenty millions haa been necessary to secure Spain’s reiease, the payment of the amount by the Filipinos might have been guaranteed by tie United States.”
