POTTER ON THE PHILIPPINES.
Episcoptl Bishop Sty Mst PUlplnos Are
Our Friends.
Sew York, Mtroa 19.-"' We ihU ,
keep the Philippine Island now," today .
aid Btihop Potter who on Saturday re
turned from an extended trip Jo the
Orient, "Decline there to no way to get
rid of them. Condition hare changed
we can't do now what it might have
been desirable to do two day after the
battle of Manila Bay.
"Grhnllng that ' the island are ours
and mast remain in our possession, 1 be
lieve that a military government is for
while the only feasible form of govero
ment. It is nonsense to talk of the na
tive Filipioos haniog the ability to 01
ganfze a government of tlielr own. It is
only in rare cases that any of them show
a real governing power:
"I was much pleased with the condi
tions in the ialauds. The war is prac
tically over. The majority of the Fili
pinos are friendly to us, baVe every con
fidence in our soldiers and are ready to
come under our government. This
friendly feeling h) shown everywhere by
the children, who arc devoted to the
soldiers.
'Several friends of Aguinaldo," con
tinued the Bishop, "called upon nv; in
Hongkong, and they told mu tint they
were satisfied that there could be no suc
cess for his undertaking. The outer
class of Filipinos are satisfied that Amer
ican occupation means increased pros
perity. "I am glad to be able to speak in
praise of the American army in the
Philippines. Their morale is very high
they are line-appearing, healthy and
splendidly disciplined men, well olUcered
Especially noticeable for their appear
ance are the Western regiments. Of
General Otis not too much can be said in
praise.
'Ofl the whole, I think I have con
siderably changed my views as to the
right and duty of a superior nutlon to
govern a weaker. I think that inevitable.
Everywhere throughout the East lb.
problem is the same te bring these
peoples to see and recognize the su
periority of vt hat we know as civiliza
tion aud give litem tho opportunity to

THE WAR IN AFRICA.
Tranivaalers on a Trek. Rerular Trains
To Bloemfontein. Confederation
Of Colonies.
Lordon, March 21 The Daily Stand
ard has received the following dispatch
from South Africa:
Bloemfontein, Varch 20 Four thous
and Transvaalers from Colesberg t reined
Saturday and Sunday from south of De
Welscrop lo the northeast, apparently
in the hope of escaping northward by
hugging the Basutoland border. It is
probable that they will be caught at one
or the other of the passes.
A striking feature of the advance on
Cioemfonteln waa the abandonment of
Lord Roberts' communications with Pop
lar Grove. Lord Roberts, confident in
ibe ability of his transport service te
meet all the Immediate needs of the army
deliberately left the Boers at Abrahams
kraal to do what they liked The result
fully justified him.
Lord Roberts, while inspecting the na
val brigade on the plain oulside Bloem
fontein, in the presence of many of the
townspeople, addressed the men, thank
ing them for the excellent work ihey
!.ad done in the course of the campaign.
tie wished good luck to those who were
about to rejoin Iheir ships and expressed
the hope that the others would be present
at the entry into Pretoria.
London, March 21 The Daily Tele
graph has received the following dis
patch from South Africa:
"Blokmkontkin, March 21 A9 to the
railway bridge over the Moddor river,
14 miles north of Bloemfenlein, which
lias been destroyed, four 100-feel spans
of iron work arc down. Trains are still
run north as far as Glen, 10 miles from
that place. Southward the lines are
open, including the Ucthulie branch, and
trains are running daily.
"From Phillippolis Lord Roberts has
received notification of the submission
of the Inhabitants and that the farmers
wish to lay down their arms. Those
who are continuing to fight hBve retired
north of Bloemfontein.. Ills announced
i hat 400 more burghers are surrendering
west of Kdenburg."
London, March 21 In well informed
political circles the impression is gaining
ground that the Government contem
plates uuilerUikiiin a great coup in
July.
Should the war in South Africa be
brought lo a successful end by that time
It is believed that Lord Salisbury intends
not only to dissolve Parliament ant: ap
peal to the country, bnl alse- to bring
forward a scheme of imperial federation
by which the great self-governing colo
nies would be given representation at
Westminster. Joseph Chamberlain is
said to be responsible for the latter part
part of the program: It Is pointed out
that all parliamentary business is being
so shaped as to make this provision a
possibility.
Europe's Coal Famine.
Wasiiinoton, March 21 The Euro
pean coal famine is becemlng more in
tense according to reports to the Slate
Deparlment from Its Consuls all over
the Continent. Today's issue of the
consular reports from the Bureau of
Foreign Commerce presents In a strik
ing manner the crisis in Austria-Hungary,
where the natural stringency ow
ing to the curtailment of the English
supply is aggravated by the existence of
a prolonged strike among tho coal
miners. According to our Consuls,
these conditions make excellent oppor
tunity for the introduction of American
coals.
From Trieste Consul Hosefeld reports
that coal 1 selling there for $10 15 a ten
and it Is not as good as American cea).
Consular Agent Harris, at Eibenstock,
reporta that the famine has reached that
point where the schools are closing ftr
Ihe want of coal. -Many factories have
shut down in Blauen In Carlsfeld and
Gorlllz and the glass work are suffor
ing greatly and laying ofl many hand.
From Coberg Oensul Hughes report
that all the factories of china, glass,
toy and dell have been shut down for
lack of coal, while from Frankfort Vice-Coheul-General
Haoauer report that
itrenuou effort are being made by a
j German syndicate lo prevent extortion
by the middlemen.

CURED BY
Johnston's Sarsaparilla
QUART BOTTLES.
A. MOST WONDEUFUL CUKE.
A Ormnd Old Ladr ttlvea Her Experience.
Mrs. Thankful Oriila Hurd lives In the beautiful village of Brtfhtoa
Livingston Co., Mich. This venerable aud highly respected lady was born It
the year 1M2. the year of the great war. in Hebron. Washington Co., New
York. She came lo Michigan in lto. the year of "Tippecanoe and Tyler
too." All her faculties are excellently preserved, and possessing a very re
tentive memory, her mind Is full of interesting reminiscences of her early
life, of the early days uf the Slute of Michigan and the interesting and re
markable people e has met. and the stirring events of which she waa a wit
ness. But nothing lu her varied aud manifold recollection' are more mar
velous and worthy of aiieiuiou than are her experience in the use of
JOHNSTON'S SA11SA l'AR ILLA. Mrs. Hurd inherited a tendency and pre
disposition to scrofula, that terribly destructive blood taint which ha cursed
and is cursing r lie lives or thousands aud marking thousands more aa vic
tims of the death augel. Transmitted from generation to generation, It la
found in neary every family in one form or another. It may make Its ap
pearance in dreadful running sores, in unsightly swellings in the neck or
goitre, or in eruptions of varied forms. Attacking the mucous membrane. It
may be known as catarrh in ihe head, cr developing In the lungs It may be,
and often Is. the prime cause or consumption.
Speaking of her case, Mrs. Hurd says: "I wag" troubled for many year
with a bad skin disease. My anus an,) limbs would break out In a mass of
sores, discharging yellow matter. My neck began to swell and became very
unsightly in appearance. My body was covered with scrofulous eruptions..
My eyes were also greatly Inflamed and weakened, nnd they pained me very
much. My blood was In a very bad condition and my head ached severely
at frequent intervals, and I had no appetite. I bad sores also in my ears. I
was in a miserable condition. I bad tried every remedy that had been recom
mended, and doctor after doctor bad failed. One of the best physicians In
the state told me I must die oj scrofulous consumption, as Internal abcesses
were beginning to form. I at length was told of Dr. Johnston, of Detroit, and
Ids famous Sarsaparilla. 1 tried a bottle, more as an experiment tban any
thing else, as 1 had no faith In it, and greatly to my agreeable surprise, I
began to grow better. You can be sure I kept on taking It. I took a great
many bottles. But I steadily improved until I became entirely well. All the
sores healed up, ail tho bad symptoms disappeared. I gained perfect health,
and I have never been troutiled with scrofula since. Of course an old lad
of s.'i years is not a young w oman, but I have had remarkably good health,
since then, nnd I firmly believe that JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA Is the
greatest blood purifier nnd the best medicine In tiie wide world, both for
scrofula ami ns a spring medicine." This remarkably Interesting old lady did
not lok to be more than sixrv. and she repeated several times, "I believe my
life was saved by JOUNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA."
