BOUND FOR BERMUDAS
Beported Destination of the
Flying Squadron.

Pohtsmouth, England, Jan. 17. The
flying squadron is assembled at Spit
head. It is reported the destination of
the Eqaadron, after leaving Bantry bay,
Ireland, will be the Bermudas.
NOT BKL1EVED AT W ASH1NTTON.
Would Certainly Be Regarded as a Hos
tile Demonstration.
Washington, Jan. 17. The cable re
port today from Portsmouth, England,
whence the British flying squadron is
about to sail, that the destination ' may
be the Bermudas, cannot be confirmed
in any official quarter here. The British
squadron already at and about the Ber
mudas consists of 16 ships. Should the
Portsmouth report be true it would in
crease this squadron to 22 ships, or 28
including the six torpedo-catchers. It
is doubted that Great Britain would send
such a powerful fleet into American
waters at this time, when their presence
would almost certainly be regarded as a
hostile demonstration, certainly not
called for, as long as diplomacy has not
yet exhausted its resources in the settle
ment of the differences between the
United States and Great Britain.
Has Been Done Before.
1 New Yobk, Jan. 17. William Blake,
treasurer of the American Bible Society,
in referenco to the dispatch from Lima
about the burning of all the bibles be
longing to the American Bible Society,
says:
"Our bibles have been burned before
in Peru. Fanaticism is the cause of it.
The natives are opposed to the disturbu
tion of our Protestant Bibles and every
now and then they seize oar stock and
destroy it. What will be done? Noth
ing. What can be done? They have
destroyed the Bibles before; they de
stroy them now and will destroy them
again, but just the same we shall contin
ue to send Bibles there. Kev. Pensotti
is our agent in Peru. Two years ago he
was imprisoned there for no other reason
than that he was distributing our Bibles.
He was kept in jail for five or six months
and was only released through the inter
position of the state department in
Washington.
AFFAIRS IN CHILE.

Keenly Felt.
New Yek, Jan. 17. A special to the
Herald, from Valparaiso, eays :

nounced himself a candidate for the

The failure to float the government
loan of 4,000,000 is felt keenly through

Adverse to Dunraven.
New York, Jan. 17. The World to
morrow will Bay that it was learned to
night from a member of the New York
Yacht Club, who is supposed to know,
that a copy ol the report of the commit
tee that investigated Lord Dunraven's
charges had been placed in the hands of
Commodore Brown today. The commo
dore, it is said, will call a meeting, at
which the report will be read. The
World adds :
"While the decision is adverse to Dun
raven, it censures him only mildly for
bringing the charges."

olli has not tendered the services of
Pope Leo as arbitrator of the Venezuelan
controversy, nor has the cardinal re
ceived, up to now, any intimation that

badly bruised. Ordinarily he would
have been laid up for two or three weeks,
but says: "After using one bottle of
Chamberlain's Pain Balm I began to
feel better, and in three days was entire
ly well. The peculiar soothing qualities
which Chamberlain's Pain Balm po
sesses I have never noticed in any other
liniment. I take pleasure in recom
mending it." This liniment is also of
great value for rheumatism and lamp
back. For sale by Blakeley & Houghton,

The popularity of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy and the high esteem in
which it i helds leads us to believe it to
bean article of great worth and merit.
We have the pleasure of giving the ex
perience of three prominent citizens of
Redondo Beach, Cal., in the use of the
remedy. Mr. A. V. Trudel! eays: "I
have always received prompt relief when
I used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy."
Mr. James Orchard says : "I am satis
fied that Chamberlain's Cough remedy
cured my cold. Mr. J. M. Hatcher
Bays: "For three years I have need
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in my
family and its results have always been
satisfactory." For sale by Blakeley &.
Houghton, Druggist.
If there is any one thing that needs
to be purified, it is politics, so the re
former says, and many agree thereto.
But blood tells, and as a blood purifier
and liver corrector Simmons Liver Reg
ulator is the best medicine. "I use it in
preference to anv other." So wrote Mr.
S. H. Hysell, of Middleport, Ohio. And
Dr. D. S. Russell, of Farmville, Va.,
writes, 'It fulfills all you promise for it."
Geo. W. Jenkins, editor of the Santa
Maria "Times," Cal., in speaking of the
various ailments of children said:
"When my children have croup there is
only one patent medicine I ever use, and
mac is Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
It possesses some medical properties
that relieve the little sufferers immedi
ately. It in, in my opinion, the beet
cough medicine in the market." If this
remedy is freely given as soon as the
croup cough appears it will prevent the
attack. It is aLso an ideal remedy for
whooping cough. There is no danger in
giving it to children, as it contains noth
ing injurious. For. sale by Blakeley &
