WILLI ARflS & CO, AGUINALDO PRO CLAIMS A REPUBLIC Ceremony Tooi Place at Maloloss, Wit nesseO? His CaMnet. ' " ALL IS NOT PLAIN SAILING ; News of their Leader's Step Received By Manila Insurgents With Lukewarm Enthusiasm Disaffection in Rebel Ranks. 1 , ' - Chicago, Jan.' 24. A special to the Tribune from Washington says : The government has been notified that Agninaldo took a decisive stepand pub licly proclaimed the republic of the Philippines. The ceremony ' took place at Maloloss, and was witnessed the members of his ' cabinet. This news comes from Manila, where the tidinge of Aguinaldo's procedure was received with public demonstrations of a mild sort. All is not plain sailing for the insurg ents, as it is said the rival authorities at Ceba are fighting. The trouble has not reached an acute state, but the safety of the town and surrounding country is in danger. The northern provinces have recently given indications that they are not in accord with Aguinaldo, and should his proclamation lead to hostilities with the Americans, he may have a revolution as well as a war of conquest thrown on bis hands. , ' . . - Another serious feature, according to the dispatches, ia that .the interior of Luzon is in ferment. Native officers have been murdered, and no effort made to punish the criminals. A Mine's Big Ran, ' Bailee City, Or., Jan. 23. Albert, Edward and Frank Geiser brought in this evening, from . the .

For several days it re quired a fask of quicksilver, containing tz pounds, tor eacn enitc, to aDscro tne gold on the plates. " With the last clean, up of seven days, this makes $48,000 in 19 days out of 570 tons of ore, each ton yielding over $84 free gold in addition to concentrates, which' are all being saved. JEWS FLOCKING TO HOLY LAND NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA To Gain Flesh, to Sleep Well, to Know K hat Appetite and Good Digestion MeahS.- ' ' ' United States Consul Randal Reports FniThat the Outlook for Re-peopling Palestine With Hebrews, and for . the Country Itself, is Brighter Than Ever Before. . Washington, Jan. 24. In view of the interest manifested recently in the Zionist movement looking to the re opening of Holy Land by Jews, statis tics sent to the state department by United States Consul Randal at Beirut of the number of Jews now in Palestine, are of great interest. , - He say s that one-half of the popula tion are Jews, whereas there was only 14,000 twenty years ago. In Jerusalem there are 22,000 Jews, half of whom have come from Europe. After a statement of the condition and resources of all of the principal Jewish .p colonies, the con sul says:. ' .' - - ".Entirely irrespective of . whether.- or. not the Zionists will succeed in awaken ing in the Jewish people a national spirit and forming a Jndean, monarchy or republic with its parliament in Jeru salem, the present agitation makes fori the development of a country which is only a shadow of its former self, which will generously respond to modern in fluences. . The sultan eeemed disposed to grant railway and other franchises, and the movement is bringing , out new, qualities in the Jews in Palestine. They are no longer content to study the Talmud and live on charity, but are waking to the fact, as the Hebrew would put It, that to till the ground is worship of God." - ' The. consul says that while there are many obstacles to the retnrn of peace and prosperity, he feels justified in de claring that the prospects are brighter than ever before for the Jews in Pales tine and for the country itself. :;' MAKE ; A TEST OF STUART'S DYS ; PEPSIA TABLETS. No trouble is more common, or more misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia. People having it think their nerves ' are to blame and are surprised that they are not cured by nerve medicines. The real seat of the mischief is lost sight of. The stomach is the organ to be looked after. . 7 - . Nervous dyspeptics often do not have any pain whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps any of the symptoms of stom ach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia shows itself not in the stomach eo much as in nearly every organ. In some cases the heart palpitates and is irregular ; in oth ers the kidneys are effected ; in others the bowels are constipated, - with head- ach diseasee by addressing F. A.

How he found relief is best toM in his own words: VSome weeks ago my . brother heard j me eay something about indigestion,and taking a box out of bis pocket said: 'Try Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.'

This is the third attempt made by the Filipino rep resentatives to secure official recognition from the United Stated government. Advices from Manila which have reached the war department are far from reassuring. It is understood Otis reports an expectation on his part that the insurgents are about to force the issue, and if this should be so, the result' cannot be foreseen. .. - La Grippe Successfully Treated.
