Well, it's a good sign for

things and Scott's Emulsion is
the medicine that does it.
These poor bodies wear out
from worry, from over-work,
from disease. They get thin
and weak. Some of the new

all of the old ones are racked
from long usage.
Scott's Emulsion fixes all
kinds. It does the work both

the failure to report on the
question raised in the eighth
apecifiaiioitsc of the precept, the ,
necessary or, if any, the advis-'
ability of withdrawing the liying

to Santiago harbor, etc. j
Third The ceurt erred in its j
majority tinding in net agreeing
with the present officer (Dewey)
in all the views expressed by him
in his' dissenting opinion. i

Manilla, Jan. 28. ?General
Chaffee curtailed his trip and re<?
1 turned hero this morning. He says
he found the conditions satisfactory
everywhere except at Samar, where
continuous ruin during the past
two aionths, retarded the campaign,
especially against suck an
elusive enemy.
Tho condition of Capt. Porter's
marines, who took part in the
expedition into the interior of
Samar, is muck worse than previously
reported. They suffered
fearful hardships and were without
food for several days. The
natives who accompanied the
marines claimed they were unable
to distinguish the edible roots,
which the marines did not believe.
None of the natives returned with
the marines . The men suffered
so acutely from starvation that
they ate raw, the flesh of two
dogs. vv ban Captain rorter and
tha first three of bis man staggerad
into '.'aaip, thay ware delirious
and difficulty was experienced in
ascertaining the whereabouts of
thair conipanians. Williams of tha
First infsntr , headed tha relief
expedition in tha face of a torrential
rain stone which -flooded
tha rivers. lie succeeded in reaching
tha remaining tan men, who
would otherwise have certainly
perished, lie feund them all delirious.
Two ef the men were
discovered in the brandies of
trees, barking like dogs. Some
of the murines are so ill that they
are not likely to recover.
