AMERICANS MEET
NO OPPOSITION
Rebels Making Efforts to Reinforce
Their Garrisons at Bulacao and
Ginganto Intense Heat Made the
Advance Difficult.
Manila, March 28. 11 a.m. General
MacArthur's. division advanced nearly
two miles without encountering opposi
tion this morning. On approaching Bala
an, a town of 25,000 people, it halted,
preparatory to attacking it.
The beat is intense, being nintey
degrees on the coast, and fully 100 degrees
In the interior, It made the Americans
suffer a great deal. In spite of the heat,
however, everyone was eager to proceed
toward the enemy.
A detachment of ninety-six Filipino
prisoners waa escorted into Manila today.
Their appearance aroueed great
interest. The rebels have unloaded
about 500 men from a train, half a mile
in front of General MacArthur's forces,
with the object of reinforcing the Filipino
garrison at Bulacan and Guganto, on
either side of the railroad leading to
Maiolos.
New Yokk, March 28. Dispatches
from Matila to the Journal today repot t
that General MacArthur's division, alter
a Bhort rest in the captured city of Mari
lao, took up the advance from that place
toward Maiolos at 9:30 this morning.
The immediate objective point was the
town of Bocove, five miles north of
Marilao.
The Filipino prisoners taken yesterday
according to the Journal dispatches,
have informed the Americana that
Aguinaldo would make a last grand
stand at Maiolos, and if he was defeated
he would make no further resistance,
but quit the revolution.
Report of the Fighting of Yesterday.
Washington, March 28. The. follow
ing dispatch has been received from Gen
eral Otis:
Manila, March 28. Severe fighting
occurred yesterday afternoon beyond
Marilao. A brilliant charge was made
by the South Dakota regiment, led by
Frost, against the famed troops of
Aguinaldo, brought from Maiolos. He
repulsed the enemy with slaughter.
Adjutant Lien and Lieutenants Adams
and Morrison and four 'enlisted men cf
the regiment were killed, and Lieut
enant McCleland and twenty-two en
listed men weie wounded. The loss
yesterday was mostly confined to this
regiment.
Partial destruction of the railroad,
which is being rapidly repaired, impedes
MacArthur's progress. Supply relay
trains have now reached Marilao, and
MacArtbur is pushing on. Our small
eunboatB are in Bulaca river, where
great execution was done yesterday.
They will relieve pressure on Mac
Arthur's front materially. The troops
are in excellent conditon and spirits.
A proclamation, signed by Luna, gen-
eral-in-chief of the insurgent forces, di
rects that all towns abandoned be burned
In consequence thereof the country
north is in flames. Otis.
The above dispatch was received in
Washington at 2 :40 a. m., March 28. It
is observed that it refers only to the
fighting of yesterday, nothing being said
of the operations of today.
Another dispatch from General Otis
announces that the Third infantry,
Makes the food more delicious and wholesome
ROYAL SAKTNO POWDER

infantry, which was at the front. Two
battalions of the Twenty-third were
brigaded with the Oregon volunteers
and have seen severe fighting. The
Twenty-third has been- recalled to
Manila.
Adjutant-General Corbin has received
the following dispatch :
Manila, March 28. The following is
from Ilo Ilo :
'AH is quiet here. Kegroea is devel
oping the internal government under
Smith's supervision. Reports are very
encout aging."
THE OLD WAY
Of Treating Dyspepsia and Indigestion
by Dieting a Dangerous and
Useless One. .
We say the old way, but really it is a
very common one at the present time
and many dyspeptics and physicians as
well, consider the first step to take in
attempting to cure indigestion is to diet,
either by selecting certain foods and re
jecting others or to greatly diminish the
quantity usually taken, iu other words,
the starvation plan is by many supposed
to be the first essential.
The almost certain failure of the star
vation cure for dysyepsia has been
proven time and again, but still the
moment dyspepsia makes its appearance
a course of dieting is at once advised.
All this is radically wrong. It is fool
ish and unscientific to recommend -dieting
or starvation to a man suffering trom
dyspepsia, because indigestion itself
starves every organ and every nerve and
every fibre in the body.
What the dyspeptic wants is abun
dant nutrition, which means plenty of
good, wholesome, well cooked food and
something to assist the weak stomach
to digest it. This is exactly the purpose
for which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
adapted and this is the method by which
they cure the worst cases of dyspepsia,
in other words the" patients eats plenty
of wholesome food and Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets digest it for him. In this
way the system is nourished and the
overworked stomach rested, becuaee the
tablets will digest the food whether the
stomach works or not. . One of these
tablets will digest 3,000 grains of meat
or eggs.
Your druggist will tell you that
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the purest
and safest remedy for stomach troubles
and every trial makes one more friend
for this excellent preparation. Sold at
50cts, for full sized package at all-drug
stores. '

Deafnea Cannot De Cared.
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafnesp
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it Is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cass out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous . sur
faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cared by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars ; free.

As the season of the year when pneu
monia, la grippe, sore throat, coughs,
colds, catarrh, bronchitis and lung
troubles are to be guarded against,
nothing "is a fine substitute," will

good" as One Minute Cough Cure. That

vigorously upon having it if "something

CORBIN HAS
SO ANNOUNCED
Plan Decided on as a Good Way to
Recognize the Volunteers' Gallant
Service Adjutant-General De
clares the Boys Have No Wish to
Quit Before the End of War.
Chicago, March 28. A special dis
patch to the record from Washington
says: Adjutant-General Corbin says
nothing has occurred in the history of
the country to endear the volunteer
troops to the regular organization as
their conduct at Manila during the
present movement on Maiolos. Not
only have they shown excellent dis
cipline, but they have eagerly sought
duty on the firing line, and j have sever
faltered in an advance on the enemy.
There has been no shirking in their reg
iments and no complaint when called
upon to bear the brunt of an assault.
Their record from the moment they
embarked to the present time has been
excellent, and the reports received at
the war department, General Corbin
says, indicate that any attempt at send
ing them home for mnster,out before
the campaign is completed would excite
a riot. They desire to remain as long as
there is any fighting to be done, and the
department, in recognition of their ex
cellent service, will not order them
home until the military problem iu the
Philippines is Eolved, or the volunteers
formally request to be released. ,
