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. At
o'clock this (Wednesday) - morning the
flying column, with the Third artillery
and the Montana and Kansas volunteers
on the left of the railroad and the Penn
eylvania. South Dakota and Nebraska
volunteers on the right, started for
Bocave across two miles of open field.
The insurgents began to fire immedi
ately and continued until the troops
reached the river at Bocave. Wounded
insurgents report that the enemy had
retreated to Malolos.
In the Pennsylvania regiment there
was one killed and five wounded. The
Kansas regiment lost one officer and
fifteen privates wounded. In tbe-Mon
tana regiment five were wounded, and
in the Nebraska regiment one man was
killed and ten wounded. The American
advance was wonderfully rapid consider
ing that the enemy deetroyed the bridges
and fled.
There was no resistance at Bigaa,
The troops advanced rapidly in con
tracted lines to the town of Guinguinto,
The Pennsylvania regiment crossed the
bridge as the advance guard.
unexpectedly tne insurgents con
cealed in the woods ahead opened
heavy fire. Then the Kansas regimen
and one battalion of the South Dakota
regiment rushed across the bridge under

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. Sold at
50cts, for full sized package at all drug
stores.

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. -
