Pie Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, December 11.1901. Chafes Reports On the Years Work in the Philippines. Washington, Dec. 6 ?The war department today made public the first annual report of Maj. Gen. Adna R. Cnaffee, military governor of the Philippines islands. Gen. Chaffee Lsums up the situation in the Philippines from a military point of view by stating that the province of Baiangas and Laguna, in Luzon, and the Islands of Samar. Mindoro, Cebu and Bohol constitute the area not disturbed by any embodied force of insurgents. He says that to the physical character of the country, to the nature of the warfare of the rebels, who are amigo and fee in the self same hour, to the humanity of the troops, which is taken advantage nf hv the rebels and the inhabitants ! w* who sympathize with them, and to the fear of assassination on the part of friendly disposed if they give information to the American forces, is due the prolongation of the guerrilla warfare. Commenting upon the plan of m gradually replacing military with H-ori nilfiffpp UVU aUUilUiObiamuu vmwxavv | says. "The withdrawal of mterfer- I v. ference with civil affairs does not ! contemplate withdrawal of the troops i from their stations to any consider- j able er4?nt; on the contrary, this j should not be done hastily, and when | undertaken should be gradual and j more in the nature of concentration than reduction of force or abandon% ment of any considerable area of territoy.': He therefore recommends that there be no further material reduction of troops before January, 1Q051 THp civil crnvcrnments which vw' ~ "* ' *" are being organized?provincial and municipal?Gen. Chaffee says, are both new and untried and there is but one certain reliable method of ascertaining the progress of the Filipinos in self government, namely, L observation by the army. General Chaffee devotes a good part of his report to the terrible dis aster which befell Company C, Ninth infantry, at BalaDgiga, Samar, which, he says, was "largely due to overconfidence in assumed pacified conditions, and in a people who, to a great extent as yet, are strangers to, and nnappreciative of our humane , and personal liberty, beliefs and actions.'' American soldiers, he says, fail to descriminate between real and assumed friendship on the part of the Filipinos. A table is submitted showing that since June 10 last, the date of the last table submitted by Gen. MacArthur, up to September 15, 361 Filipino officers and 3,538 men sur^ rendered to the American military, and officers and 494 men were captured. Great attention is paid in appended reports to the subject of the prevaience of venereal diseases in the army of the Philippines and the vigorous measures taken to segregate dissolute women and by rigid physical inspection guard against a spread of such diseases. He Hept His Leg. Twelve years ago J. "W Sullivan, of Hartford, Conn., scratched his leg with a rusty wire. Inflammation and blood poisoning set in. For two years he suffered intensely. Then the best doctors urged amputation, " 'but," he writes, "I used one bottle of Electric Bitters and 1 1-2 boxes of Bucklen's Arnica $alve and my leg was sound and well as ever." For Eruptions, Eczema. Tetter, Salt * Rheum, Sores and all blood disorders Electric Bitters has no rival on earth. Try their: J. E. Kaufmann willguari antee satisfaction or refund money. Only 50 ceEts. Millions in Georgia Cane. T'.e Atlanta Journal. Georgia has had all along a great source of revenue in sugar cane, which grows to a high degree of 4 perfection in the greater j.art of the State. Bat this element of wealth, like \k. many others that nature has given us, has been reglected until recently. Georgia farmeis are now, he waver, r Boy and Presiding1 Elder. Anecdotes of preachers being 01 tap, Hod. John Dougherty of Mis souri contributed the following: Id one of the counties composing the Third Congressional district o banning to realize tbe possibilities of Georgia cane, and many cf them ; have already made it very profitable. I s production is increasing every j year, and the manufacture of sugar is coming to be an extensive bus-iness in Georgia. Th^re is something in sugar caoe raised in this State that m ikes tbe best syrup known. Thi-t is not an idle boast, but a ftct to which chemists and hosts of people who now u<e Georgia cane syrup and will have no other, testify. Nearly two years ago Mr John M. McCandless, the well-known cbemisf, made for Tbe Journal analysis of several specimens of this article i which showed it to possess better I qualities than any other syrup on | the market, and there is an abundance of scientific evidence to corroborate this estimate. The experts of the federal agricul- , ! tural department, who are now pay- , iDg attention to Georgia cane syrup, have found that it contains 2 per cent more sugar than Louisiana oyrup. Such proofs of the superiority of ^ Georgia syrup are bound to increase j the demand for it, to stimulate the j larger planting of sugar cane and manufacture of syrup in the State. The production cf Georgia sugar is sure to increase immensely. * An Atlanta merchant, who deals ^ largely in syrup and sugar, and who has studied the Georgia sugar cane question, said recently that he had ^ no doubt that a great sugar- refinery would be established in this State, ( and he is convinced that it will prove very profitable. There is a great future for Georgia cane syrup. < - * Saved His Life. "I wish to say that I feel I owe 1 my life to Kodol Dyspepsia Cure," ' writes H. C. Chrestenson, of Hay- 1 field, Minn. "For three years I was 1 troubled with dyspepsia so that I ( could hold nothing on my stomach. ^ Many times I would be unable to 1 retain a morsel of focd. Finally I was confined to my bed. Doctors 1 said I could not live. I read on9 of your advertisements on Kodol Dyspepsia Core and thought it fit my ' case and commenced its use. I I began to improve from the first bottle. Now I am cured and recommend it to all.'' Digests your food. ' Cures all stomach troubles. J. E. : Kaufmann. ' "American Peril." ? \ i Berlin, December 4 ?During the course of the tariff debate in the reichstag today, Dr. Paache of Halle university, sounded the strongest warning concerning the "American periF which has yet been uttered. Dr. Paache visited the United States in 1899 to study the social and industrial conditions there. During his address the speaker laid before | the house masses of figures which set forth the expansion of the Amer- , iean manufactures aDd of American foreign commerce'of recent years and the enormous accumulation of wealth in the United States. Dr. Paache said: "Peculiarly grave j danger threaten us from America^ j against these we must put ourselves i i in a state of defense." i Dr. Paache was peculiarly im- j j pressed by the rapid growth of the ! * 1 TT I 1 1 i cotton goods trace in tne unitea l i States which he said now dominated j i the markets of the world.

Som< clajs before the date of a Quarterly Conference held there some yean sgo our good lady friend receivec word that ttie Jfresiding Jbiderwouic be her gueEt for a few days during the meeting. In order to convinc< the Eider tbat she had been and was loing her Christian duty in the mat ter of training her only child, a boy ibout four years old, to walk in "the 3traight and narrow path" she thought it not amiss to give hirr some special instructions before the minister arrived. So takiDg the little fellow upon her lap one day she tolc him that the Presiding Elder, a big ind a great man, would visit then 30on and that he would "be very 3ure to ask some questions aboul pour Sunday school, how you like pour teacher, etc. Bat probably the irst questions he asks will be: Whai s your name? How old are you' Do you know where bad boys gc when they die? Now, when he asks four name, tell him Johnnie Jones When he asks how old you are, tel 2im four years old, and when he asks f you know where bad boys go wher ;hey die, tell him, using the Scrip :urai word, tbat bad boys, when thej lie, go to hell." John was drilled cr :heee questions daily until the min eter came. In the meantime he inew by note that his name was Johnnie Jones, that he was four years )ld and that when bad boys die thej 'o to bell. The minister was a portly gentle man of friendly manner and pleasanl countenance. After receiving a cor 3ial welcome he was seated in the sitting room, and the proud parenl excused herself and sought Johnnie the pride and expectancy of her life to introduce him to the minister Afte John's face was washed, his haii sombed and he was otherwise mad< presentable his mother led him ii to meet the preacher. As the urchir entered the sitting room he observec through the open door a neighboi playmate sitting on the fence whistl ing for him and calling him to cem< out quick.

Kaufmann. A Cure for Pneumonia. Take six to ten onions, accoidinj to size, and crop fine, put in a larg spider over a hot fire: then add abou the same quantity of rye meal am vinegar enough to make a thic] paste. In the meanwhile, stir thor oughly, letting it simmer five or tei minutes. Then put it in a cottoi bag large enough to cover the lung: and apply it to the chest as hot a: j the patient can bear. When this gets cool apply another, and thus continue 2 by reheating the poultices, and in a few hours the patient will be out of danger. This simple remedy has * never failed in this too often fatal ^ malady. Usually three or four ap1 plications will be sufficient, but con tinue always until perspiration starts 3 freely from the chest. This simple 7 remedy, says the New England Gro3 ver, was formulated many years ago * by one of the be6t physicians New ' England has ever known, who never ? lost a patient by that disease, and 5 won his own renown by saving per3 sons by simple remedies after the best medical talent had pronounced 7 their cases hopeless. Personally we 3 know of three persons who were ' saved by this remedy last winter in 1 Boston, after their physician had 3 given them up to die: and if a record was made of ail similar cases ' during the last six years, it would fill I a good sized volume. t a mm mi iin ?ivangeus7's siory. j "I suffered for years with a bron, chial or lung trouble and tried vari, ous remedies but did not obtain J > permanent relief until I commenced ) using One Minute Cough Cure," ! writes Rev.
