mint VOL. XI THE DALLES, OREGON. TUESDAY, APRIL 4, 1899 NO 309 THE NATION TO HONOR ITS DEAD Interment of Bodies at Arlington to Be a Notable Occam . PRESIDENT MC KINLEY'S ORDER Cortege Carrying Bodies of Men Who Fell in Cuba and Porto Rica to Be Received With Appropriate Cere mony. Washington, April 3. Tne preaideDt today iaBued the following executive or der: "It is fitting that in behalf of the nation a tribute of honor be paid to the memories of the men who lost their lives in their country's service during the late war with Spain. It is the more fitting, inasmuch as in consonance with the spirit of our free institutions and in obedience to the most exalted promptings of patriotism these who were sent to other shores to do buttle for their country's flag went freely from everv quarter of our beloved land, each soldier and each sailor parting from home ties and putting behind bim private interest in the presence of the stern emergency of an unsought war with an alien foe was an individual type of the devotion of the citizen to the state which makes our nation strong in unity and in action. "Those who died in another land left in many homes the undying memory that attends heroes in all ages. It was fitting, that with the advent of peace, won by their eaciifices, their bodies should be gathered with tender care and restored to home and kindred. This has been done with the dead in Cuba and Porto Rico. Those of the Philippines rest where they fell, watched over by their surviving comrades and crowned with the love of a grateful nation. The remains of many brought to our shores have been delivered to their families for private burial. But for others of the brave officers and men who perished there has been reserved interment in grounds eacred to soldiers and sailors among the tributes of military honor and national mourning they have so well deserved. "I therefore order that upon the arrival of the cortege at the national cemetery at Arlington, all proper military and naval honors be paid to the dead heroes ; that suitable ceremony shall attend their interment; that the customary ealute of mourning be fired at the cemetery, and that on the same day at 2 o'clock, Thurs day, the sixth day of April, the national flag be displayed at half-mast on all pub lic bnildingB, forts and camps and pub lic vessels of the United States, and that at 12 o'clock noon, of said day, all depart ments of the government at Washington shall be closed. William M'Kinley, Executive Mansion, April 3, 1899. In the same. connection. Acting Sec retAry of War Meiklejohn issued this order: "The remains of officers and soldiers, who lost their lives in the war with Spain during the operations in Cuba and Porto Rico will be interred with due and fitting ceremonies in the national ceme tery at Arlington, Va., Thursday, April 6, at 2 p. m." By direction of the president, all the United States troops serving in the vi cinity of Washington, together with the National Guard of the District of Col um bia will be assembled at Arlington on the date in question, to participate in the funeral ceremonies.

CUBANS MUST HURRY Our Offer of 3,000,000 is Not to Stand Indefinitely. Washington, April 2. It was reiter ated tonight by two members of the cab inet that no consideration will be paid to any proposition for money for the Cuban army outside the $3,000,000 fund now awaiting their acceptance, and, fur thermore, it is hinted that if .too much trouble and deliberate delay occurs, pre liminary to that amount being turned over to the Cubans, the $3,000,000 may be withdrawn and no payment of any sort made by this government on account of Cuban troops. No proposition for an additional sum will be considered, in any form. - 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, 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 diet ing or starvation to a man suffering lrom 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. Thi9 is exactly the purpose for which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are adapted and this ia 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 tablets will digest the food whether the stomach works or not. . One of theee 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.

REBEL GOVERNMENT ON ITS LAST LEGS Agninalio's Army Has Been Defeated and Scattered. NATIVES RE TURN HOME Confidence in the Promises of the Americans Becoming More Gen eral Commission Ready to Act. Manila, April 3. 6:20 p. m. The natives continue returning to their homes. They are coming in all along the American lines, and many of them, seeing the promises of good treatment are fulfilled, are inducing their relatives to return to their homes. General Otis has received the following message: "Manila, April 3. Hearty congratula tions on the most magnificent work of the army. DEWEY." The Philippine commission, the last member of that body, Colonel Charles Denby, former minister to China, hav ing arrived here, will discuss the situa tion. The commissioners are hopeful of a speedy restoration of peace, believing hostilities soon will be confined to habitual revolutionists. .. .

" Its' army has been defeated, discouraged and scat tered. The insurgents returning to their homes in the cities and villages between here and points north of Ma lolos which our reconnoitering parties have reached desire the protection of the Americans. News from the , Visays islands is more encouraging every day. OTIS." Rebels" Not Located. New Yobk, April 3. A dispatch to the Herald from Manila says: Repeated efforts to locate the insurgent array in front of Malolos have been unsuccessful, and our forces are therefore still resting in the former Filipine capital. The attack on the forces under Gen eral Hall at Mariquina suggests that the enemy is concentrating in that direction. Colonel Denby's arrival makes the early issue of the proclamation of the Philip pine commission probable. Wood Wood Wood.
