Pacific Hardware Co., LIMITED. Fort Street. Remington Standard Typewriter! WHAT IS IT1 A simple, compact, and durable machine, which successfully performs the work of the pen, with a tremendous saving of time and exertion. WHAT WILL IT DO? It produces, with speed and certainty, in clearly legible printed characters, one or many copies of any kind of writing, excepting such as must be done in books. TO WHOM IS IT USEFUL? To every one who has writing to do. In business circles its desirability is assured. Lawyers and journalists cannot do without it. Professional and scientific men realize its worth to them. The author and thinker find it invaluable. It con serves the most potent kind of energy that of the brain by reducing to a minimum the mechanical labor of writing, and distributing it among all the fingers of both hands. Writer's cramp disappears where it is used. It presents the printed appearance of the work to the mind at once. WHO CAN OPERATE IT1 Any one of ordinary intelligence. A very few trials enable any one to write upon it readily. Thereafter it is only a mat ter of practice. Fourth Army Corps to leave camp was the Second Cavalry, and this was quickly followed by the Third Infantry and the Twentieth Infantry. These troops marched to and through the city to the water front, where the after noon and part of the night were con sumed in taking passage on the trans ports Mattewa, Stillwater, Aransas, Morgan and Breakwater. General Bates is in command of the expedition. The men are jubilant over going to the front. The general im pression among the men is that the expedition is bound for Porto Rico. The Eleventh and Nineteenth In fantry were ordered to leave by rail for Tampa, but the order was counter manded. They, with the Fifth Caval ry and one battalion of the Second Cavalry, will probably leave tomorrow. TENDERS FOR SUPPLIES. SPANISH PAPER LOSES HOPE. LONDON, June .4. According to a dispatch from Madrid, El Heraldo, with regard to the situation at San tiago, says: "It is one more disen chantment which proves that there is no remedy for Spain's misfortunes. Cervera's squadron at Santiago is of little advantage either for itself or for what it represents. It can neither hinder the Yankee expedition nor strengthen the defense of Havana. Spain was never before led through such a straight road to perdition." TROOPS MAY BE SENT TO PHILIPPINES. MADRID, June 3. In the Chamber of Deputies today Lieutenant-General Correa, Minister of War, in reply to an inquiry as to whether a Spanish ex pedition would be sent to the Philip pines, said the Government was deliberating.

WASHINGTON, June 4 The peace signs have been multiplying. There has been a notable change in the tone of the Spanish press, and, al though up to this moment no advances have been made to the State Depart ment by any of the European powers, there is an indefinable suggestion in the air that any. moment may bring forth overtures of this kind. For this reason the campaign against Porto Rico will probably be hurried, in order to insure its possession by the United States before peace is attained. LONDON, June 4 According to a dispatch from Madrid, El Heraldo, with regard to the situation at Santi- . -t; T. n 4- ago, says: it is one more uiseucuaui- ment which proves that there is no remedy for Spain's misfortunes.

The young magician who has made such a hit here will appear for the second time in his engagement at the Opera House tonight. What constitutes the charm and se cures the success of Dante's work is his admirable faculty of entertaining his audiences while performing his many difficult feats of legerdemain, with wittv comedy interpolations ana bits of by-plays, that serve the double purpose of amusing his audience ana distracting their attention trom nib nimble and expert sleight of hand work. Dante is the foremost of the many maeicians. his entertainment consists of mneic. mirth and mystery, by a refined company of twelve artists in a new and novel program, so content yourself with the absoluteism that a real good thing is scarce, and that now is the opportune time to secure your seats, avoiding much unnecessary trou ble by getting into a long line at tne box office window at night.
