INSURRECTION
IS NOT ENDED
Hope of Ending Philippine War Has
Again Faded Into Uncertain Future.
New Youk, Dec. 7. A disptach to the
Herald from Manila says: Hope of end
ing the insurrection and halting mili
tary operations in the Philippines, which
seemed eo bright a few days ago, haa
again faded into uncertain future.
Much has been accomplished. During
the last few weeks the campaigning has
been almost phenomenal. In dreadful
weather, through a devastated country,
across swollen rivers, along roada that
were impassable for wagons, artillery
and in some cases for cavalry, the ad
vances of the troops have been eo rapid
and in so many directions that they
have often been beyond the military
telegraph lines, and operations have
ueceesarily been independently con
ducted hv the field commanders. The
army is rightfully proud.
The insurgents have had a eeries cf
routs and disasters. The slaughter has
been creat. They have lost a largo
quantity of Etipplies and munitions of
war and more thnn 1000 armed men
have surrendered orbeen captured during
their retreat in the last few weeks. Their
government has been scattered or cap
tured. What of it ia at liberty is in flight
A portion ot Aguinaluo'a family are in
our lines. Aguinaldo himself is a fugitive
Notwithstanding all this there is no
reason for an extreme optimistic view of
the situation. Nothing more is heard of
having the rebellion stamped out in the
course of a few days. That sort of talk
only lasted while the insurgent leader
was slipping away last week. Field com
manders now think that the end is etill
afar.
As a cure for rheumatism Chamber
lain's Pain Balm i9 gaining a wide repu
tation. D. B. Johnston of Richmond,
Ind., has been troubled with that ail
ment since 18G2. In epeaking of it he
says: "I never found anything that
would relieve me until I used Chamber
lain's Pain Balm. It acts like magic
with me. My foot waa swollen and
paining mo very much, but one good
application of Pain Balm relieved me.

Treatment is Effective.
S.u.km, Dec. 7. It is the general opin
ion that the number of patients at the
Oregon insane asylum ia rapidly in
creasing. This is erroneous, however,
as the records will show. On November
30, 1S0S, there were 1100 patients, and
on November 130, 1899, there were 11C2.
There are almost daily reports in the
press of patients received, hut there is
seldom mention of patients diccharged.
The records show that the treatment
given at the asylum is productive of
good results, for in the latt eleven months
the number of patients discharged was
187, or 17 per month. '1 he greater portion
of these wero fully recovered, while a
few were discharged because their con
dition had improved sufficiently to
warrant their being given liberty.
