VOL. XI THE DALLES, OREGON. FRIDAY,. MARCH 31, 1899 NO 306 ONE OREGON BOY KILLED Otis' Last List Tells or Nine Otlier Ore pus W inniel. CAPTAIN WELLS AMONG WOUNDED Number of Casualties Reported'Amoog the Other Volunteer Regiments At the Front. Washington, March 30. With the American forces within three and a half miles of the insurgent capital, interest in the military movements north of Manila, has about reached the culmin ating point. It was stated at the war department that the march of three and a half miles might take all of today, in view of the successive lines of entrench ments and etroiiij earthworks which it is believed the rebels have thrown up immediately around the city. In that event the storming of the city itself would not begin until tomorrow. Ad jutant - General Corbin was of the opinion that the attack would begin today. Major Simpson, of the military in formation bureau, had made a final re adjustment of the American position, showing just bow the approach to the insurgent capital will be executed. It shows the brigade of Hale stretched on the right, and theft of Otis on the left. Each brigade in this advance is made up of seasoned volunteers with four batteries of the Third artillery, these be? ing the only regulars. But just back of them and midway between the two ad vance brigades is the strong force of Wheaton, which has been kept from the arduous work of the last few days and held as a sort of battering ram. It is made up mainly of regulars and Twenty eecond infantry and Third infantry, as well as one regiment of volunteers, the Second Oregon, which has seen some of the hardest fighting of the war. It is eaid this reserve force will be heard from when the main aesault begins. Yesterday's Advance. New York, March 30. A diepatch to the Herald from Manila undet date of Wednesday says : The army's advance today had covered more than two miles before any resistance was offered.

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 dyepeptics 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, in other words, the starvation plan is by many supposed to be the first essential. The almost certain failure of the star vation cure for dysvepsia 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 diet ing or starvation to a man suffering from 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, becuase the tablots 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.

SAMOAN TOWNS UNDER FIRE EowlartffltEl by His American Cruisers Ctntinms. EXILED CHIEFS BROUGHT BACK Consensus of Opinion at Washington is that Kautz has Acted Entirely With in His Orders and that the Govern ment Will Sustain Him. Berlin, March SO. A . brief official dispatch from Apia, Samoa, dated March 30, says: The bombardment of the coast villages by British and American warships, continues. In pursuance of military orders, white residents have evacuated many houses. ' The chief of the Malietor Tanus party, who were exiled to the other islands, have been brought back from Upola. The firearms and ammunition taken from Tanus Januaty 2 have been returned. Determined to Sustain Admiral Kautz. .Washington, March SO. The etate department has not received detailed of ficial advices relating to occurrences in Samoa. The demonstration is regretted, but the opinion is expressed that Kautz acted on what was his best judgement and information. The etate department acknowledges that no permameut agree ment can be reached under a treaty in which all three powers do not agree, and hopes some settlement of the difficulty may be brought about when it becomes apparent present conditions cannot exist indefinitely.- Kautz acted within his instructions, and there is no doubt, with the facts now at hand, that he will be sustained by the United States government. The Situation is Improving. Washington, March 30. Assistant Secretary of War Allen has issued the following statement: The last dispatch from Kautz is as follows : "Auckland, March 29. The situation is improvingsince thetelegram of March 18, via Sidney, N. S. W. Kautz." London. March 30. The- British foreign office has received an official dis patch confirming the news from Apia announcing the outbreak of hospitalities there. First newB of the bombardment of the C3ast towns of Samoa was contained in an Associated Press dispatch sent out last night, which said that the troubles growing out of election of a king had taken a more eerious turn and resulted in the shelling of the coast villages by the United States cruiser Philadelphia, Admiral Kautz commanding, and the British cruisers Porpoise and Royalist: The bombardment has continued inter mittently for eight days. Several villages have been burned,', aud there have beer a number of casualties among and Amer ican and British sailors and marines. As yet it is impossible to estimate the number of natives killed or injured. Plot to Depose the Czar. Paeis, March 30. The Echo be Paris today publishes a sensational dispatch from Copenhagen, saying a plot against the czar, in which bis mother and M. Pobyedonotzolf, head of the holy synod, are implicated, has been discovered, the object of the conspiracy being to take advantage of the state of the czar's health, to remove him from power and confide the government to his uncie, who is classed as a notorious reactionary. GREAT LOSS IN SHEEP Conversative Estimate Fixes it at 15 Per Cent in Umatilla. Pendleton, March 29. C. A. Eppin ger, a well-known sheepman, has re turned -from North Yakima. He says the increase in lambs this year will be no-more than 60 'per cent, unless perfect weather conditions prevail, when the in crease may be as much as seventy-five. Ordinarily the increase under favorable conditions should be 100 per cent, and, in exceptionally good years, even more. Many sheep are dying in Yakima county, and the outlook is discouraging, accord ing to Mr. Eppinger. Douglas Belts, formerly a representa tive in the legislature from this county, said today that throughout this county the loss to the sheep industry will be no less than 15 per cent, or 10 percent more than the loss in ordinary years. Mr. Bells is a conservative man. He places the loss at a lower figure than the ma jority do. He says, however that the heaviest loss will be looked for during the coming two weeks to a month, for the reason that feed is so scarce that the sheep cannot recuperate from the weak condition in which the severe winter weather left them, and the ewes cannot properly nourish the young lambs. Deafness Cannot be Cnrec. by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness1 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 cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in' flamed condition of the mucous ear faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Care. Send for circulars ; free. - F. J.
