TORPEDO ROATS NOT WANTED.
Officers Cannot Bo Found to Take
Thorn to Manila.
Norfolk, Va., July 81. It begins to
look as If nothing would be done by
the navy department toward sending
the torpedo boats stationed here at
present, to the Asiatic station. It was
originally planned that these boats,
some Six or seven In number, should
leave here early In April, and every
thing was In readiness for the long
voyage; that Is, everything but the
personnel for tho boats. It has been
found next to Impossible to obtain the
officers and men for the protracted
tour of duty which Is necessary In or
der to train them for the long voyage,
much of which must bo under tow.
Now comes tho suggestions from the
Asiatic station that It might be just as
well to keep the torpedo boats at
homo since they are really not urgent
ly required In far eastern waters,
where their presence with the fleet
would somewhat retard the cruising
program, and where they would have
to llo In ordinary at Covite much as
they now remain at this port. It Is
possible, therefore, In view of these
difficulties, that the torpedo boats will
stay In home waters, although It Is a
part of the strategic program thnt
thero shnll .be at the Asiatic station,
in rendlness for need of them, a flo
tilla of torpedo boats.

CHICKEN EVERY HAY.
Pulnuse Filmier Forced to Extreme
Measures to Keep Harvest Hands.
Some farmers of the Palouse coun
try have hit upon a novel scheme to
relieve the situation occasioned by the
scarcity of harvest hands, says the
Moscow Star.. Seeing that the offer
of good wages has failed to induce
many who as a rule don't particularly
care to work, some have decided that
once a day they will spread chicken In
profusion on their tables and make
llfo In this section a veritable paradise.
The whole northwest Is experienc
ing a shortage of help and for that
reason harvest hands are commanding
good salaries, short working hours and
the delicacies of life on the menu.

pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water

effects fallowing use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the nisjht. The mild anil
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
