HAS HER HANDSFULL
The Outbreak in the
lipines.
Phil-
SPAIX SAYS SHE EXPECTED IT
Refugees From the Islands Said to Hare
' Relation With the Cuban 1k
' surgents-
London, Aug. 22. The developments
' o the troubles of Spain are followed
hr with considerable interest and the
outbreak In the Phillipine islands is re
garded as eeriously increasing her difficulty-
The news of the conspiracy has
caused great excitement in Madrid,
where it is stated that the government
is considering the advisability of prompt
ly reinforcing the Spanish garrisons.
The outbreak, however, is not a surprise
to government officials, as news reached
them some .time ago of a considerable
activity of the half-breeds. The object
of the conspirators is to secure the inde
pendence of the Phillipine islands, and
a committee of refugees at Hong Kong
ia said to have relations with the Cuban
insurgents. . '.'"
The embarkation of reinforcements
for Cuba commenced today. The Span
ish police are extremely active in towns
throughout the country jtrst now in en
deavoring to get at the bottom of the
supposed republican plot to cause au up
rising by exciting the masses who op
posed the departure of further troops
for Cuba. Domiciliary visits have been
paid to the houses and clubs of promi
nent Republicans, and in many caees
compromising documents have been
seized. Numerous arrests have been
made among the Republicans and great
precautions are being taken in Madrid
and other larg) cities. '.
In the meanwhile, the Liberals are
conducting their policy of obstruction
in the chamber in trying to prevent the
passage of the extraordinary budget,
which iuvolves a renewal of the tobacco
monopoly and the concessions of the Al
maden quicksilver mines to the Roths
childs, in addition to railway subsidies,
all of which the Liberals opposed as
against public interests. Consequently,
there are likely to be stormy scenes be
fore the session closes in the middle of
September. """. -r
UCB-FKESIDENTIAL NOMINEE.
Mr.
llobart Wilt Make Seme Suggestion
. to Gold-Standard Democrats.
New' Yoke, Aug. 23. A World's dis
patch from Hopatcong, N. J.-, says:
There are many thousand Demo
. crats," said Garret Hobart, the Repub
lican vlce-oresidential nominee, "who
are hesitating to follow -their party lead'
. ers and inclining to put patriotism above
party. In my letter accepting the vice-
presidential nomination of the Republi
can party, which I have here, and which
-will be probably , made - public after
Major McKinley gives oqt his. letter, I
will devote considerable attention to
them. .For this reason, I must decline
to give my views as to the right sort of
remarks to be addressed to Democrats
this year. I shall make no campaign
; speeches, and do not expect ' that Mr
McKinley will. Were he to do 'so, his
opponent would probably follow in his
x tracks, and would no doubt "delight to
follow in a cart where Major McKinley
had preceded in a palace car, contrast
ing the two for the sake of argument.1'

this morning and was a guest at the Mc
Kinley home. He returned to Chicago
tonight.' He said the campaign work
was now well begun, and that there was
an increasing deinaqtl , for . tariff" litera-

Major Dick, who was with Chairman
. Hanna, at Cleveland, and is now 'a sec
retary at Chicago national headquarters,
also called at the -McKinley home to

A.. FKAEFl'L FALL.
Defective Paracltnte Eads the Aeronsut-
io Career of an Astorian. -Astoria,
Aug. 22. J. Watson Dag
gett, the aeronaut, met witn an accident
thit evening which will in probability
bring his parachute-jumping to a close.
An ascension and parachute jump was
advertised for a o'clock, but' the usual
delay ocenred,-and it was 7 o'clock be
fore everything was in readiness. A
large crowd had - assembled, from
among whom the aenonaut collected
$28. He wt a dissatisfied with this, and,
before ascending, made a short speech.
stating that he had not been treated
with a great degree of liberality.
There is not enough in the money
suoscrioeu, " be remarked, "to pay my
funeral expenses, but I'm going up, any
way." When about to start, Daggett's
attention was called to ' one. of the
parachute ropes having been broken.
Never mind, ""he said, , "let .her go."
The balloon .was then let loose and as
cended to a height of about 000 feet.
A slight current ot air carried it in a
southerly direction, and, when a Bhort
distance south of the - 6choolhouse, the
parachute was disconnected.
. , For the first 300 feet it came down like
a rocket, and the cry, - "He's killed 1"
went up from hundreds of throats. " The
parachute then became partially filled.
and the descent was somewhat checked
It was seen that the ropes had become
twisted, bnt the aeronaut retained his
self-possession, and; by! swinging,, en
deavored to get the ropes into position.
In-this he was unsuccessful, and became
down with a succession of lightning-like
flights. When about 100 feet from the
ground, the aeronaut seemed to have
lost bis power to check his descent, and
he fell with a terrible thud on one of the
hills south of the residence portion of
the i city. He was quickly picked np
and conveyed to St. Mary's hospital, but
the exact nature of his injuries cannot
yet be stated. The. legs are thought to
be driven up into the hips, the collar
bone broken, and it is feared that inter
injuries have been sustained. ... ; v ....:.-

- Heppner Gazette.
The following letter received by a gen
tleman now in this city from a Nebraska
friend gives a very encouraging report of
the political situation in that state :
"I suppose you know . that Nebraska
isfurnishing the Democratic lamb of
sacrifice this year.' Oar William,' as he
is familiarly called, I understand is go
ing to swamp things out your wayv Of
couree you are excusable ; bad you a
personal acquaintance with the gentle
man's abilities, yon would do ; just like
we shall do enow him under. .Nebras
ka will go.- for McKinley by an over
whelming majority. I hope you people
will not go wild over our William. He
is not to blame for all this hubbub.
You can place Nebraska in the McKin
ley ranks for a certainty."
The article below relative to a partial
canvass - ot .Lincoln, Bryan's home,
strongly substantiates the above state
ment. . '- ' .
"News was given out last Tuesday of
a partial canvass of Mr.- Bryan's town,
Lincoln, and the county of Lancaster,
in which it is situated. The count v Re
publican committee distributed blanks
and sought to secure an active canvass.
In two precincts reported the result was :

AN ALARMING STATEMENT
CONCERNING WOMEN.
HOW BAD HABITS ARB FORMED.
The New York Tribune says : "The habit of
taking ' headache powders ' is increasing to an
alarming extent among a great number of wo
men throughout the country. These powders as
their name Indicates, are claimed by the manu
facturers to be a positive and speedy cure for any
form of headache. In many cases their chief
ingredient is morphine, opium, cocaine or some
other equally injurious drug having a tendency
to deaden nain. The habit of taking them is
easily formed, but almost impossible to shake
off. Women usually begin taking them to re
lieve a ra triii cr headache and soon resort to the
powder to alleviate any little pain or ache they
a nnany nae tne mor-
into the habit of takino
imasrinintr that thev are in nain
In nine cases out of ten, the trouble is
in the stomach and liver. Take a simple
laxative and liver tonic and remove the
offending matter which, deranges the
stomach and causes the headache. Dr.
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are composed
entirely of the purest, concentrated,
vegetable extracts. .- One Pellet is a
dose; sugar-coated, easily swallowed;
once used, always in favor. They posi
tively cure sick headache and remove
the disposition to it. . . . ";
Mr. E. VAaoisow; of Otter Lake, Lapeer Co.,
Mien., writes : I not
infrequently have an at
tack of the headache.
It usually comes on in
the forenoon. . - At my
dinner I eat my regular
meal, and take one or
two of Doctor Pierce's
Pleasant PeUets imme
diately after, and in the
course of an hour my
headache is cured and
no bad -effects. I rfcel
hetter - every way -for
having taken them
not worse, as is usual
after taking other kinds
of pills. ' Pleasant Pel.
lets are" worth more
than their weight in
Kola, it tor notningf else
than to cure neaaacha.
