SPRING TIRED?
Are You Weary and Run Down? Are You Sick
and Depressed ? Is Your Blood Thin and Poor?
from the lonp, cold winter? Do you take cold easily? Do you feel shivery? Utterly
fagged out after little exertion ? Is your complexion had ? Do you feel that life is not
worth living? Nearly every one has some of these symptoms in spring, for winter, while
apparently hracing, is all the time sapping your strength. Your blood is clogged with
disease poisons. 15y spring every one is in a more or less played-out condition, just right
to catch typhoid and malaria. Not always sick, but tired, tikkd, TIRED. YAWNING,
physically and mentally, best describes it. This is especially true if you have had GRIP,
pneumoniaor other illness so common in winter. These are Nature’s demands for a
tonic, a stimulant, a reviver.
To carry you through the changeable, trying, disease-breeding weather of spring,
and lay up energy and strength for next winter, you need

For a Struggle with Bulgaria—Other
News From Far East.
Tokio, March 9.—It is believed
lu re that there has already been a de
cisive naval engagement in the vicin
ity of Vladivostock and tidings of it
are anxiously awaited. The Japan-
-e fleet did not, it is said, go to
Vladivostock for the purpose of bom
barding the town, but to locate and
attack the armored cruisers Gromo-
ber, Rosia, Jturik and the cruiser Bo-
gatyr, the Russian lleot stationed at
that point.
It is undrestood hero that when the
Japanese liect arrived there on Sun
day last it found the Russian squad
ron absent. If this Is true it gave
tie Japanese squadron advantages in
the way of avoiding a battle close to
the inshore batteries at the same time
putting into a position to prevent the
Russian ships re-entering the harbor.
it is doubted that the Japanese with
drew their entire squadron unless the
location of the enemy had been dis
covered, as it meant surrendering the
a/lvantage of being in a position be
tween the enemy and the enemy’s
base.
There is a sttong possibility that
the Japanese found the Russian ships
in the vicinity of Possiet bay and
gave them battle there. The names
and number of ships in the Japanese
squadron have been kept secret, but it
probably is sufficiently strong to di
vide into two position, the one to
r°w groccm’jorjiirect, $1.00 a bottle. Medical booklet fres. guard Vladivostock and the other to
cruise i’l search of the Russian ships.
It is reported the newly purchased
cruisers Nisshin and Kaisuga are tak
ing part in the present movement off
Vladivostock. The navy department
expects to receive dispatches tomor
row from General San, where it was
planned the Meet would call after the
operation involving an attack upon
the Russian squadron had been con
cluded.
The* Japanese are quite confident in
the ability of their squadron to signal
ly defeat the Russian ships and laugh
ingly say the big Russian cruisers
which stand unusually high out of the
w ater, make excellent tragets.
REFUGEES SEEK HIGH GROUND.
Ice Gorges Still Causing Floods In
Pennsylvania.
Wilkesbarre, Pa., March 9.—The
ice gorge -t Cl£’.;s Isiand below the
town of Cuiavvi.,aa, pas forced the
water into Front and Water streets
and score; of families have been com
pelled to seek refuge with their neigh
bors who live on b’gher ground.
At West Catawassa the employes of
k< Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern railroad station were compelled
to leave the building because of the
high water.
At Blooiosburg today the boiler
rooms of many of the industries were
flooded, putting out the fires and ren
dering it imposs.ble to start the ma
chinery. As a result hundreds of
persons are idle. The cellars and
first floors of hundreds of dwelling
nouses are under water. The dam
age to property will be heavy. There
is almost a complete suspension of
mining throughout the valley.
The water is llowing into the col
lieries faster than it can be pumped
out. Fully 8,000 miners are idl«
today.
Tnere Is a total suspension of traf
fic on the Pennsylvania and Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western roads.
The Susquehanna river is well with
in its banks today and all of the
towns flooded yesterday are again
clear of water. The breaking of the
ice gorge left from one to 25 feet of
ice on the tracks of the Columbia and
Port Deposit railroad from Turkey
Hill to Safe Harbor.
The railway tracks at Turkey Hill
are about 20 feet above low water

Town To Be Flooded.
Port Jervis, N. Y^, March 9.—More
than a hundred homes in the lower
part of town have been flooded to the
second stories and 300 families have
been made temporarily homeless by
a sudden rise in the Delaware river
caused by an ice gorge.
The electric light piant was flood
ed and the town is in darkness.
All day the river had been rising.
Just before dark the ice started to
move. It stopped at a big gorge 3
miles down the river and a large
body of water immediately backed
over the town. So sudden was it
that many people standing on the
banks were obliged to wade shoulder-
deep in the stream and hundreds were
imprisoned in their houses.

SULTAN PREPARING FOR WAR.
Russia Will Be Ready Should Hostil
ities Break Out in Balkans.
St. Petersburg March 9.—Careful
inquiry concerning ihc outlook in the
Balkans develops the opinion in gov
ernment as well as in diplomatic cir
ri ■ is against an outbreak of war
in the spring, although the danger is
not considered passed.
A peifeet understanding exists be
tween Russia and Austria and besides
the Russian authorities appear to he
completely atigfled regarding the at
titude of Bulgaria. What asurances
the authorities have concerning Bul
garia are not known but they do not
tally with direct information from
other sources representing Bulgaria
as mobilizing, with having her plans
perfected for an invasion of Turkey,
and as beii g confident that she can
defeat the Turks single-handed.
Evidently the porte also is alarmed
at the outlook, as an American (a rep
resentative of an ordnance firm who
came here to act as broken In the sale
of South American warships to Rus
sia) has been requested to go to
C nstantinople, the sultan desiring to
purchase a large supply of guns. It
is a mistake to imagine that Russia is
so engrossed with affairs in the Far
East as to be unable to give attention
to the Ball ans. She lias carefully
r<‘frained fr in removing troops from
the vlcinitj of the Roumanian fron
tier and will lie prepared, If necessary,
to assume her share in the event of

It was first proposed to expel them

to remain until the terms of their en
