A dispatch to the Tribun from London, says: The clubs wot crowded last evening until midnight since tliere was a gvn erttl impression that the crisis, of the;auvanee upon Motteno ana -ypregu. war had come with a battle Impending on the Tug?la. This feeling of sus pense waa strengthened by buIP.Iins reciting vigorous shelling of the Boer trenches yesterday morning with lyd dite and the destrucitlon, of intrench meats with minor incidents such as i advanced on the British camp rvlreat the shifting of the enemy's dosMoii. j ed when the shells bopan to burst the stampede of their horses and coiv slant outpost duty. In the newspiper cilices there was a ahfttf of important dispatches relating to the aJwnturvw of Thorneycrowfs scouts on tna upper xugeia. Adjnts. elona cf Boer dVsertors, 'that General JouberCs army was suffering from j lack of food, the trial of the traction J engine for transport service, the Je- j struciion of a ktrje gun at Cclenso by a shell from a naval gu.i and the es-! cape of six horsRman from Lailysmlth ! during a thunderstorm, two of whom whiv- fantasUcully reported aa Dr. Jameecn and Colonel Rhodes.

About 11,000 men will be allowed Even the stoutest luarted Englishman ! has been constrained to hold his breath until the issue of the battle Is known. Public anxiety has not been deeper than the filing of suspense among military mn. Thy have described the Boer defensive position, 16 miles in length, with relays of horses behind tt, by which the forces could be rapidly concentrated at any point tim might be strongly (attacked, as something uniquo In military history. There never was anything like it and ordin- ary tactics and strategy studied by , the staff college have provided no ex- ; pedwnts for reguTitir.g a scientific at- tack on a swoll.i river with conceal- ment of the enemy's position. Boer occupation of two points on the southern bank and the extension of thedr line until rt wus hardly pi-aetica- ble to turn rt,' and the remarkable mo- bility of The Datch fore has Increased i the difficulties of a most formidable i enterprise. The most thoughtful vet- emns have added that, while this new I defensive system with long range guns ' In concealed trenches and thouaands of horses under saddle has been success ful when attacked at the point of least resistance, it might prove weak land vulnerable at the point of last resistance. The Boars, adapting them selves to Brttiah tactics, had devised a most Ingsoious scheme of defense. It might prova unexpectedly weak if the Britih generals in turn could adapt Carried Down Mream. When a man crossing some difficult place in bis working career j spurring all bis energies to accomplish some critical passage in his business jour ney, suddenly finds bis health giving way and feels himself swept out of the saddle Dy tne 'swift-running current of dis ease then is the time when the marvelous rejuvenating properties of IJr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will prove an unlailing means of rescue aud restoration. It is a very simple though eminently scientific medicine. It is not a mere stim ulant like so many malt extracts. It re stores healthy power by reviving the in nermost sources of vitality in the nutritive system. It enables the digestive and blood-making organism to manufacture good blood abundantly and rapidly, so that the immense waste of tissue and nerve fiber entailed by hard labor is offset by speedy upbuilding of fresh energy and strength. A prominent and Tenerable Illinois phyaiciau, D. W. Vowlea, M. D , of Fowler, Adama Co., writing to Dr. Pierce, aaya: " I send herewith thirty-one (31) cents in aUnipa fur ' The People's Common Senne Medical AdviaCT' In cloth bind ing. With this pittance for so valuable a work (truly a (rift to the public), I must expreaa my high appreciation of the vast amount of good that you hare rendered the public. A correct mcature of your usefulness never haa been, and never will be estimated by the public: no, not even by the multitude of afflicted humanity that haa been relieved and cured by your medi cines.

ITALY NOT SLOW The Delay of Her Answer Due to Ab sence of Our Ambasadr. WASHINGTON, Jan. 5. It is 1-sarned that, although Italy was the laat of the powers addressed to return an an swer to Seereiury Hay's overture re garding the "op-n door policy, that frovernment really was more prompt than any other In the negotiations. This is exlahicl by the fact that the Itali.in government was addressed on the subject som; time after the otter continental nations had it under con sideration, owing to the fact. that our ambassador, Mr. Draper, was away from his pool on leave of absence In the I'nited States when the identical nMe of instructions was sent out and It was regards as best to make no de parture from th-i rule which had been adopted in the cas? of the other gov ernments of addnesfying them through the I'nited .States representatives a the foreign capitals. Immediately upon Mr. Draper's re turn to Rome at a not distant date rn the past, he laid the matter before the Italian government which therefore has acted with more promptness than most of the other powers. The agreements have not yet been reduced t) their final form, but the state- department will now enter upon the task of putting them into shape, and as In eacih case the agreement to the principles involved 4n our Invita tion is returned In unequivocal terms, according to tiie department ofllolals, It Is now anticipated that no difficulty will be experienced in accomplishing this work satisfactorily. Pending that outcome the state de partment does not Intend to make any statement for the public as to the exact terms of the agreement, though ft Is admitted that the ground has been covered with unusual accuracy in the press reports up to this point.

Catarrh is on of the most obstinate diseases, and hence the most difficult to get rid of. There is bat one way to cure it. The disease is in the blood, and ail the prays, washes and inhaling mixtures in tne world can have no permanent effect whatever upon it. Swift's 8pe tiflcotures Catarrh perrnacwitly.forit is the only remedy which can reach the disease and force it from the blood. Mr. B. P. McAllister, of Harrodsborg, Ky., had Catarrh for years. He writes: "I aoald asw so Improrameat whatever, tkh I was eoniMnlly treated with sprays ana wmsnea, ana amei nt Inhaling reandlas In fast, I eoaM teal that each winter I was worse thao the yea previous. "Finally ll was breught o mj aotlas that Catarrh waa a blood disease, sad after thlak lng over the Batter.

To continue the wrong treatment for Catarrh is to continue to suffer. Swift's Spseiflo is a real blood remedy, end earn obstinate, deep-seated diseases, whieh other remedies have no effect whatever upon. It nromptly reaches Catarrh, ana never fails to core even the most aggravated cases. S.S.S.rfteBlood Is Purely Vegetable, and it the only blood remedy guaranteed to eon tain no A so ge roue minerals.
