cation.

I
'
Washington, March 8. — The Hay
Pauncefote treaty, intended to replace the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty, relative to the
construction of isthmian waterways, is
dead. The death was caused technically
by the fact that the last clause of the
treaty allowed only the period of time up
to March 4 for its ratification. Neither
the government of the United States nor
of Great Britain appeared to have made an
effort to extend that period.
Though the treaty is dead from the
point of international law, it may still
serve a purpose. It is understood here
that the British government. either has,
or is preparing, a communication to the
United States government based on the
senate amendments, analyzing them
carefully, pointed out their probable ef
fect upon the original proposition -as seen
from the British side and perhaps suggest
some modifications.
While it is impossible to predict in ad
vance of the receipt of this communica
tion just what attitude the state depart
ment will assume toward it, there is rea
son to believe that it will be taken in
good part, and that negotiations will be
resumed for the conclusions of a new
treaty with a view of meeting, if pos
siblc, the objections raised by the senate
to the original treaty.
Laboren* Ordered Deported.
Rossland, B. C., March 4.—E. P. Brem
ner of Vancouver and Edward Willimas,
dominion labor commissioners, have been
here for about a week .looking into the
matter of alien labor and as a result of
their labors 16 of the men in the employ
of Messrs. Winters, Parsons & Boomer,
who have a contract to do some work for
the Red Mountain railway, were ordered
deported. The contractors will pay the
way of the men back to the United States,
where they were engaged. This is the first
time that a ease of this kind has come up
in this province and the penalty of a $1000
fine for each contract laborer brought in
was not enforced. The commissioners
stated, however, that in the future the law
would be enforced to the letter. The inten
tion of the dominion authorities is to pro
tect the Canadian workers from unfair
competition.

The liability to disease is greatly
lessened when the blood is in good con

otherwise it would rapidly accumulate

NEGOTIATIONS GOING AHJEAD
Private Information F.acivcd — Con
firm. Reoent Reporta —Botha in Touch
with ^Kitchener at Pratorla — Other
Boer General« Will right It Oat.
London, March 8.—Private information
received in London confirms the rumors
of negotiations between Lord Kitchener,
Sir Alfred Milner and Commandant Gen
eral Louis Botha. Nothing is known as
to the actual presence of the Boer com
mander in chief at Pretoria and no Lon
don paper publishes a statement that he
is there, but it is reasonably certain that
General Botha is in either Pretoria or in
close touch with Lord Kitchener.
«Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman made
an effort to extract some information
from the government on the subject in
the house of commons. The Associated
Press is informed that Sir Alfred Milner
has gone to Pretoria with the object of
assisting Lord Kitchener in these negotia
tions, the length of which appears to be
due to General Botha's desire to consult
with Acting President Schalkberger at
Petersburg and to make terms applying
to the whole Boer forces, but militating
against this is Lord Kitchener's doubt as
to General Botha's ability to control Gen
eral Dewet and other leaders, as well as
the internal opposition General Botha is
encountering.
The great financial firms whose inter
ests in South Africa are almost equal
to those of the government believe from
their private advices that the present sit
uation is likely to result in the surrender
of General Botha and the forces under
his immediate command, while the other
Boer units will remain in the field.
A big movement is being prepared to
clear the whole of Orange River colony

The day was when men of promi-1
nenoe hesitated to give their testimon

merits are known to so man/ people of

The highest men in our nation have

A dignified representative of the

state pnblioly that he has need i'eruna
in his family and found it cored when
other remedies failed. In this state
ment the Rev. Smith is snpported by
an eider in his church.
Rev. E. G. Smith, pnstorot the Pres

writes:
"Having nsed Peruna in my family
for some time it gives me pleasnre to
testify to ils true worth. My lit

Mr. M. J. Rossman, a prominent
merchant of Grennsboro, Ga., and an
elder in the Presbyterian church of that
place, has used Peruna, and in a re
cent letter to The Peruna Medicine
Co., of Coluuabns, Ohio, writes as fol
lows:
"For a long time I was troubled
with oatarrh of the kidneys and tried
many remedies, all of which Rave me
no relief. Peruna was recommended
to me by several friends, and after
using a few bottles I am pleased to say
that the long looked for relief was
found and I am now enjoying better
health than 1 have for years, and can
heartily recommend Pernna to all
similarly afflicted. It is certainly a
