Mancii3Teb, Jan. 3. The Manchee
ter Guardian says: m
"The government has categorically
statctUhat Great Britain Kill rofiiBe to
recognize any special rightB granted at
any Chinese ports to any particular
power. Any port opened to anyone
power munt be open to all or open to
none. If Russia has been granted the
right to winter ships at Port Arthur,
Great Britain will enforce her rights to
trio same privilege, and her ships will
winter there whether China concedes or
does not concede them the right to do
so.
"lf Germany obtains naval stations at
Kaio Chou, Great Britain insists on
having a lease of ground for a naval sta
tion at the same port, and she will sup
port every other power in the same
claim. The contention of the govern
ment is that the most favored nation
clause in British and all other treaties
with China forbids any special conces
sions of the nature contemplated by
Germany at Kaio Chou, and prevents
the nation from acquiring special bene
fits in which other nations do not have
a share.
"The government has also declared
that the same principle applies to such
transactions as railway and mine mo-
r'ft vinnrtltpn Talrfnrr lipr atflni! nn flin
treaties, Great Britain refuses to recog
nize such concessions and will insist
upon similar railway and mine rights
and will use such force to Becure or de
fend them as is necessary. This decla
ration does not apply to concessions of
territory to which existing treaties do
not refer, but relative to thie contingen
cy, the dispatch sent by the government
to China says that when it occurs, a
graver question will arise.
"It is reported a similar declaration
has been delivered to the Chinese and
other governments by Japan."

Weyler' Organ Itauipaut.
BiAitniTZ, Jan. 3. According to mail
advicea sent here frou Madrid, in or
der to escape censorship, the Nacional,
General Weyler's organ, published a de
fiant article pointing out that although
tbe government has seized the general's
protest, it would not prevent its being
read in every barrack-room.
The Nacional, it further appears, at
tacks President McKiuley and Minister
Woodford in unmeasured terms. It
has been twice confiscated, but the man
ager of that paper is a deputy, and
therefore cannot be prosecuted.

A startling incident of which Mr. John
Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject
is narrated by him as follows : 1 was in
a. most dreadful condition. My skin
was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue
coated, pain continually in back and
sides, uo appetite gradually growing
weaker day by day. Three physicians
had given me up. Fortunately, a friend
advised trying 'Electric Bitters,' and to
my great joy and surprise, the first bot
tle made a decided improvement I con
tinued their use for three weeks, and am
now a well man. I know they saved
my lite and robbed the grave of another
victim." No one should fail to try them.

Weyler has defied the government to
take proceedings against bim. As he is
a senator, a special voto is nccessaiy to
deprive him of immunity from prose
cution and the cabinet Is embarrassed,
as the army appears to side with Wey
ler in his attacks upon the United
States.

trouble is very distressing, very obsti

most dangerous of diseases begin with

Aug. J. Bogel, the leading druggist of
Shreveport, La., says: "Dr. King's
New Discovery is the only thing that
cures my cough, and it is the best eeller
I have." J. F. Campbell, merchant of
Saffords, Ariz., writes: "Dr. King's
New Discovery is all that is claimed for
it ; it never fails, and is a sure cure for
Consumption, Colds and Coughs. I
cannot say enough for its merits." Dr.
King's New Discovery for Consumption,
Coughs and Colds is no experiment. It

was the admiration of diamond cutters
and merchants, because it was the first
successful attempt to cut a ring out-of
a single stone. There are a great many
difficulties in this method of cutting
diamonds, as the stones have a certain
cleavage and particular veins, all of
which have to be carefully studied in
order to prevent splitting just as suc
cess seems within reach. After several
years' labor the feat has been accom
plished by the patience and skill of M.
Antoine, one of the best-known lapi
daries of Antwerp. The ring is about
six-eighths of an inch in diameter. In
the Marlborough cabinet there is a
ring cut. out of one entire and perfect
sapphire.

Americans are the best dancers in the
world, says Carl Marwig. The Russians
come second and the Spaniards third.
The French and Germans do not count,
When Americans dance abroad every
one else stops dancing to watch them.
A leader of cotillions, Mr. .Marwig be

have a certain mental cleverness and
quickness. His figures must be de
veloped as the dance progresses. They
must be simple, as well ns attractive,
