Thh museums are liuiitiiiL' for the ; man who wan in the war and didn't . write about it in the jn-igHzines. ; ! SOMK people are troubling tllem- selves more about the compensation j uf the couimiMsion than about the ratification of the treaty. It is kind of handy to have the week and the month and the year all end to gether. It avoids spoiling another week giving the next year a start. Gov. "Tkddy" ItoOSKVKLT has nearly as serious a job on hand filling the official positions he has to give as New Year plums as he had at Sant i ago in June Inst. Exportation of wheat still con tinues to be very heavy and prices are consequently well m tintaiiied. Seri ous competition from Argentina is not expected until April, so that the outlook for this branoh of trade is very promising. At precisely midnight Saturday the hands of the clock in the tower of the Philadelphia publicbuilding were started on their ceaseless journey, The people of the Quaker City are now furnished time by the biggest clock in this country. TlIrillK seems to be a general belief, on the part of thoe in position to know, that the bumptious Aguinaldo is not as much after empty honors as a chief among his kind, as he is after United States dollars, to be paid liiwi for ceasing to make a nuisance of himself. It is iutimited that the French Court of Cassation will, through fear. pronounce' ivfainst ")royfus. They may do so, but it is certain that France will have no peace until Dreyfus is either acquitted or tried and convicted, according to civilized rules of justice. TlIK friends of James 11. Garfield, who are pushing the young man as a candidate for Governor of Ohio, should bear in mind that while lie is a son of a distinguished father, and u. man of much promise, many a young man is dropped from sight by trying to drive him beyond his speed in his youth. Should thn winter continue like it is now, with frost enough to hold the moisture in bounds, all indications lead to the hope that the season of colds will speedily pass away. The mildness of the type i favorable.Jand the mere fact that so few deaths are traceable directly or indirectly to the grip is enough to dispel the fears that may have" assailed the community -when the coming of the unweloom guest was first announced. At any rate the grip has begun to ease off. Thk anti-expansionists in 'the Sen ate are following out their principles so closely that eaoh day they contract themselves a little more, until by the time the treaty comes up for co'nsld eration the opposition will have diminished until it is not visible to the naked eye. Persons who hav an ambition to be accounted eccen trie and different from other peopl should lose no time in joining the anti-expansionists before they break up. McKinley's popularity helps his doctrine.

Women Should Know It. Many women suffer untold agony and misery because the nature of their illseiKc is not correctly understood. They have been led to believe that womb trouble or female weakness of some sort is responsible for the many ills that beset womankind. Neuralgia, nervousness, headache, puffy or dark circles under the eyes, rheumatism, a dragging pain or dull ache in the back, weak ness or benring-dowrt sensation, profuse or scanty supply of urine with strong odor, frequent desire to pass it with scalding or burning sensation, sediment in it after stand- ing in bottle or common glass for twenty-four hours, are signs of kidney and hhulder trouble, The above symptoms arc' ofien attributed by the path nt herself or by her physician to female weakness or womb trouble. Hence, so many fail to ob'ain relief, because they are treating, not the disease itself, but a reflection of the primary cause, which is kidney troub'e. Iii fact, women as well as men are ma le miserable with kidney and bladder trouble and both need the same remedy. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is the great dis- coery of the eminent kidney and bladder specialist, and is easy to get at any drug store for fifty cents or one dollar, To prove its wonderful merits you may have a sample bottle and book telling all about it, both sent absolutely free by mail, Kindly mention Shenandoah Herald and send your address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Iiinghamton, N.

In the usual Spanish fnshlon General Castcllanoi nald: ' "W have been enemies, but I re spect you for your correct Attitudes end opinions. I have pleasure Jn shak ing your hand." General ltodrlguez replied: "I tlinnk you, general. I feel sori'y for the Span ish army, which hus defended tho ban ner It was sworn to defend. I also have pleasure In shaking your hands." Pantrln Genial Cnstellanosthen took I, Is position nar Major General IJrooke. The bus!K of conversation on the Ameri can side of the chamber contrasted with the silence on the Spanish side. At the last stroke of 12 the boom of a rntn brotiRht all eyes to the point In the moid where stood the captnln gen eral, who was talking with nn Ameri can officer. Immediately all was sl lenre. ' The captain genernl stepped to the left, taking his position directly In front of his staff. On his right stood Captain J. S. Hart, Interpreter to the United States military commission. Next to Captain Hart, In the order named, were Generals Chaffee, IJrooke, Ludlow, Lee, Wade, llutler and Clous, Immediately behind Genernl ChalTee was Senator John W. Daniel, of Vir ginia. l-'ni'innl Transfer or Authority. At this moment the band on the plaza was playing the Spnnlsh nationathymn. As the guns at Cabanas fortress ceased firing there was a breathless pause In the salon. Everybody knew that the American flag was being raised on the staff on the roof of the palace by Major Butler, son of General Uutler, and that the Stars and Stripes was going up on all the other official staffs In Havana After this second of Bllence the band on the plaza played "The Star Spangled Banner, while the guns of the fleet and fortresses began to roar out the national salute of 21 guns. Immediately Captain General Castel- lnnos handed the manuscript of his speech lo Captain Hart and began to speak. Amid the strains of the band and the noise of the guns It was Im possible to hear him. "Close the win dows," said some one, and the case ments were closed, but the sound of the cheering still visibly disturbed the captain general. Addressing himself to JIaJor General Wade, president of the United States military commission, though he seemed to look at the floor, General Castel- lanos said: Gentlemen: In compliance with the treaty of Paris, the agreement of the military commissioners of the Island and the orders of my king, at this mo ment of noon, Jan. 1, 1S39, there ceases In Cuba Spanish sovereignty and begins that of the United States. In conclu slon. I declare you in command of the Island, with the object that you may exercl.se It, declaring to you that I will be first In respecting it. Peace having been established between our respective governments, I promise you to give nil due respect to the United- States gov ernment, and I hope that the good re latlons already existing between our armies will continue until the termina tion of the evacuation of those under my orders In this territory." After Captain Hart had translated the address General Wade said to Gen eral Brooke: "I transfer this command to you." Major General Brooke said: Genernl llrooko'H Aeceptnnro. "I accept this grea't trust In behalf of th'e government and president of the United States, and (addressing Captain General Castellanos) I wish you and the gallant gentlemen with you pleasant leturn to your native land May prosperity attend you and all who are with you." Generals Brooke and Castellanos then shook hands, after which General Castellanos and staff retired from tin throne room, shaking hands with Mr, Jerome, who stood near the door exit. As they retired these was movement toward General Brooke, Brigadier General Clous shaking him by the hand and saying, "Success to you." Generals Brooke and Chaffee, with others, then stepped upon the balcony and looked down upon the plaza. A big American flag flying over the arsenal was In full view, and farther away the Stars and Stripes streamed over the Cabanas fortress. Meanwhile the officials of Spain were saying farewell to their nation's seat of power In the new world. Turning to his officers, General Castellanos said, with tears In his eyes: "Gertlemen, I have been In more bat ties thin I have hairs on my head, an my self possession lias never failed me until toaay. Adieu, gentlemen, aaleu. Then he moved swiftly toward the stairway, escorted by General Chaffee, and followed by his staff. As he cross ed the plaza the American ladles who were standing In the balcony of the barracks waved their handkerchiefs, and General Castellanos responded by bowing and kissing his hand toward them. At the corner of the plaza, with tears In his eyes, he turned to take final look at the palace. He could see the American generals on the balcony, Without a word he turned sharply In the direction of the wharf. At the dock Generals Clous and Chaffee bade him farewell, and the retiring captain gen eral put off for the Spanish transport Rabat, on which he will proceed to Matanzas. He Will be accompanied by a battalion of the Thirty-eighth In fantry. Major Genet al Brooke held a recep tlon In the palace salon, the various officials paying their respectB and promising allegiance to the United States. At the ciose of the reception the Cuban generals were Introduced. General Brooke said to them! "I shall look to you to assist us in carrying out the purpose that brought us to these shores. It Is a great trust, and I shall expect most extraordinary assistance from you." General Lacret, who acted as spokes man for the Cuban officers, assured the United States military governor that everything In the power of the Cuban military ofllclals would be done to help the Americans restore Cuba to a con dition of peace and prosperity. The parade of the United States troops showed the feeling of the Cu ban element of the population. Thti roofs, the streets, the parks and the wayside In the suburban districts were crowded with curious, but for the most part silent spectators. Now and again there was a cry of "Viva Los Ameri canos," followed by a burst of cheering, but there was no general expression of public rejoicing, though Major General Lee, who rode at th head of the col umn on a gray charger, received a per sonal ovation along nearly the entire rouU.
