Major Bell's Report.
Washington," May 31. Major Bell,
of tbe engineer corps, who was for Bimo
time in charge of the office of military
information nnder General Otis' com
mand, has filed a report which the war
department has just made public in
connection with the original report of
General MacArthur.
In the report Bell mentioned the task
assigned to him of clearing the bank of
the Pasig river opposite the American
headquarters at San Pedro Macati of
certain insurgent troops and sharp
shooters. For this purpose he selected
companies M and K of the Washington
volunteers, consisting of 121 men and
five officers. He pays high .compliment
to the courageous and eoldierly manner
exhibited by Brigade-Surgeon Shields
and Professor Becker, of the geological
survey, which, accompanied his com
mand, and farther says tbat Corporals
Selig, of company M, and Houghtington
of company K, attracted his attention
by especially cool and courageous con
duct.
CAPSIZED BY
A SWELL
Two Brothers, Fishermen, are Drowned
Near Astoria.
. Astoria, May 30. The first drowning
of the season among gill-net fishermen
on the lower river occurred this after
noon. The increased run of fish at the
mouth of the river during the past few
days has caused the men to venture close
to the breakers, and many narrow
escapes have been reported. A gale was
blowing today with a heavy sea running
and juBt as Abraham and Oscar Juntii,
who had drifted down on the. ebb" tide,
attempted to Taiae their sail, the boat
was caught by a huge swell, thrown onto
Peacock spit and capsized. The Canby
lifesaving crew was close at hand and
succeeded in saving tbe boat and net,
but both men had sunk, before they

could be reached. The men bad boat
No. 0822, and were fishing for the com
bine. Another fishing-boat containing two
men was carried over tbe bar this morn
ing. The Point Adams lifesaving crew
went out after them, but was unable to
pick them up and returned. What be
came of the men is not known.
Dltcorered by a Woman.
Another great discovery has been
made, and that too, by a lady in this
country. "Disease fastened its clutches
upon her and for seven years she with
stood its severest teets, but her vital
organs were nndertermined and death
seemed imminent. For three months
he coughed incessantly, and could not
sleep. She finally discovered a way to
recovery, by purchasing of us a bottle of
Dr. King's New Discovery for Consump
tion, and was so much relieved on taking
first dose, that she slept all night;- and
with two bottles, has been absolutely
cured. Her name isMre. Luther Lutz."

Volunteers Want to Remain at Manila.
New Yohk, May 31. A special to the
Herald from Manila says: Informa
tion has been received here that satis
factory reeults have attended the move
ment among members of tbe volunteer
regiments in Manila for the establish
ment of a large American colony in tbe
Philippines. -
Four thousand of the volunteers now
in the island are reported to have signed
a petition to the president and secretary
of war, praying that they receive their
discharges in Manila, inBtead of at the
places of enlistment, and they be al
lowed travel pay to the places of enlist
ment. It was explained tbat they be
lieved the Philippine islands "offered
rare opportunities for industrious and
enterprising Americans to make for them
eelves homes," and that they desired to
remain "for the. purpose of taking part
in the development of the mining, agri
cultural and industrial resources of tbe
islands."
The petition stated that in the event
of favorable action by the government,
those signing it pledged . their united
support in upholding the laws and pro
tecting the interests of the United States,
and would, if so desired become members
of a national guard or such other organ
ization as might be necessary for tbe
best protection of American interests in
the Philippines. .
Deafness Cannot be Cured.
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deafness
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 rambling sound or
imperfect bearing, 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, bearing 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 sur
faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)

Insurgents Deal Vengeance Upon Those
of Their Countrymen Who Showed
Friendship to the Americans.
Manila, May 31. Details regarding
tbe capture by the Filipinos of two
officers from tbe hospital ship Relief
have just been obtained. The Relief lies
in the harbor in front of this city. Third
Officer Fred Heppy and the assistant
engineer, Charles Blanford, rigged a
sail on one of the ships boats and went
sailing along the shore on the south, op
posite the insurgent lines.
The boat became becalmed near the
shore and some native canoes with Fili
pinos on board put out and captured the
two men, who were unarmed, and also
took possession of the boat. The Monad
nock quickly sent a boat with a landing
party under cover of her guns and
shelled tbe shore briskly. The natives,
however, ruehed the prisoners into the
woods before the Monadnock's boat
reached the land. Persons on board
several other ehips saw tbe affair through
glasses, but were unable to prevent the
capture of Heppy and Blanford.
Friendly . natives, arriving from the
country around San Isidro and San Mig
uel, report that a reign of terror has pre
vailed since the Ameiican troops were
withdrawn from those parts of the island.
Tbe insurgents who return are dealing
vengeance upon those of tbeir country
men who have shown any friendship to
ward the Americans during the 'latter's
occupation of the territory. ' The friend
lies declare that unoffending people are
being murdered daily, and tbat their
houses are being burned and their prop
erty confiscated.
Plenty of sympathizers with the insur
rection remained during tbe American's
stay, and they have been reporting these
instances of friendlinees toward out
troops. The refugees and' the inhabit
ants were badly oppressed by tbe native
soldiers before American occupation, but
their condition is worse now. Doubtless
there' is much truth in the reports,
though stories from Filipino sources are
always magnified.
Millions Olren Away.
It is certainly gratifying to the public
to know of one concern in the land who
are not afraid to be generous, to tbe
needy and suffering, The proprietors
of Dr. King's New Discovery for con
sumption, coughs and colds, have given
away over ten million trial bottles of this
great medicine ; and have the satisfac
tion of knowing it has absolutely cured
thousands of hopeless cases. Asthma,
bronchitis, hoarseness and all diseases
of the throat, chest and lungs are surely
cured by it. Call on Blakeley & Hough
ton, druggists, and get a free trial bottle.
Regular size, 50 cents and $1. Every
bottle guaranteed or price refunded. 3
. Wool Moving Steadily.
Pendleton, Or., May 30. Predictions
that the wool market would be active by
June 1 ave been realized. Wool is
moving steadily, and tbe clip will be
cleaned up quite promptly. Prices be
gun on a basis representing two cents
below last year's quotations, and already
there has been some improvement. This
improvement is not specifically signifi
cant, however, and is not believed to
indicate any very general advance beyond
a small margin. "The advance," stated
one well-informedbuyer, "is due to the
influence of competition among the
buyers, but the influence must nec
essarily be limited. Buyers are under
orders from the houses they represent to
hold themselves in a conservative
attitude, and not repeat tbe mistakes of
last year, when too high prices were
paid, and money was lost on all the sea-
eon's purchases. The market does not
justify any material advance over pre
sent quotations, and must not be crowded
too hard."
' Last . fall I sprained my left hip while
handling some heavy boxes. Tbe doctor
I called on said at first it was a slight
strain and would soon be well, but it
grew worse and the doctor then said I
had rheumatism. It continued to grow
worse and I could hardly get around to
work. I went to a drug store and the
druggist recommended me to try Cham
berlain's Pain Balm. I tried it and one
half of a 50-cent bottle cured me entire
ly. I now recommend it to all my
friends. F. A. Babcock, Erie, Pa. It
