There are a great many reasons
for this, most of which are trace-

And while we do not wish to reflect
upon the value of physicians in any
community, we do say that if the
people ate well there would not be
so many physicians in business.
Spend more money on your kitchen
and less on the druggist and doctor.
A capable cook can make a good,
nutritious, non-dyspepsia giving
meal of almost anything we sell.
And the cost will be less than a phy-
sician’s bill. Our business has
grown the past year because we
sell just what honest grocers should
sell. As don’t buy adulterated
goods, so we don’t sell ’em.

Congress has passed an act regulating the

exceed 9000 men. The navy is to consist of

Rabanal’s soldiers were driven back from
every position, Las Piedras, Desempeno,
Resolucion and Termina. This was a
great victory for the patriots, command-
ed by Rojas and Junco.
I have been carefully taking notice of
every skirmish, so you can judge how the
patriots are moving ail over and that
they are the ones that go and look for
the Spanish troop, as the Spaniards are so
full of terror they don’t care for fighting.
Burning properties and killing women and
children are most of the work done by the
Spanish army. Very often you hear about
women and children that have perished
in the flames of some houses that the
Spanish set on fire.
I can give you my word of honor that
Spain is not able to crush the rebellion.
The patriots are full of enthusiasm and
sure of winning.
No matter what you hear, all Weyler’s
news sent by cable is false. He has done
nothing since he arrived here from Spain,
but to order the killing of innocent people.

Pittsburg, Pa., Jan. 8.—Gen. Angus, ed-
itor of the Baltimore American, and Louis
Garther, Washington correspondent of
that paper, went cast last night from
Cleveland, where they have been in con-
ference with President Elect McKinley
and Mark Hanna. Gen. Angus said Mr.
McKinley’s policy as so far determined
calls for the enactment of a tariff law as
far removed from the Chinese wall idea
of protection as is compatible with the
fostering of home industries and the main-
tenance of national revenues.
According to the Maryland editor the
next president will refer all disputes con-
cerning rates and schedules to the chair-
man of the ways and means committee,
himself counseling moderation in the es-
sential features of the law superseding
the Wilson bill.
“Maj. McKinley,” he said, “will in his
administration make a particular effort to
finish the work of healing the breach be-
tween the north and south. He will so
shape his policy that the Republican party
will not only hold the southern states
carried in the last election, but gain oth-
ers of which there is reasonable hope.”
LADY SCOTT SENTENCED.
London, Jan. 8. — Lady Selina Scott,
mother in law of the earl of Russell, who
through counsel pleaded guilty yesterday
in the Central criminal court of criminally
libeling his lordship in conjunction with
John Cockerton, an engineer, and William
Aylott, a valet, was sentenced this morn-
ing to eight months’ imprisonment with-
out hard labor. Cockerton and Aylott,
who also pleaded guilty yesterday, re-
ceived similar sentences today.

who had been calling for help for two

CUBAN CORRESPONDENCE.
Senor Luis Penes, Cuban agent to Tex-
as, is in receipt of the following corre-
spondence:
Havana, Jan. 3.—The Spanish army can’t
do anything. The government needs 200,000
soldiers more, as the insurgents are
stronger every day.
In Holguin the Spanish colonel, Pavia,
in the hills of Melones and Sao Redondo,
met a great defeat, losing Lieut. Col.
Manual Soles and Lieut. Ricardo F. Zayes
and 68 soldiers, all killed.
The Spanish general, Arolas, was routed
by the patriots in Asiento Viejo.
There were arrested in Alguizar and
brought to this city two women, charged
with being in sympathy with Cuba Libre.
The Spanish general, Nicolas Rey, tak-
ing a convoy of 142 wagons of provisions
from Manzanillo to Balamo met the patri-
ots and lost everything and the troops had
to flee and. reached Bueycito panic strick-
en, leaving many killed and wounded,
among- them the Spanish captain, Senor
Jose Podio Bonache, Lieuts. Sese Gabarre,
S. Bilbain and Sub-Lieut. Zamora and 175
soldiers, all killed. The patriots were be-
hind a stone wall and had few losses.
In the province of Pinar del Rio Gen.
Ruis Rivera has a fight nearly every day.
In less than a week he has fought in
Rubi, Charco Hondo, Asiento Viejo, San
Juan y Martinez and many other places.
He is working with great activity, so
much so, that Weyler has given up the
idea of pacifying Pinar del Rio.
Great battles have been fought in Colon.
The patriots were under Col. and Lieut.
Col. Rojas and Junco; the Spaniards were
commanded by Col. Gomez Barbe. In the
first battle the Spaniards lost 187 killed,
among them Capt. Freire, and in the other
battle in La^ Piedras the Spaniards lost
204 killed and wounded. This battle lasted
four hours. The patriots lost about 68
killed and wounded.
Spanish Lieut. Col Altolaguirre got his
flying column broken up in Arroyo Piedra
by the patriots.
Puerto Principe, where the Cuban gov-
ernment resides, is all in the hands of the
patriots. The Spaniards don’t dare to
leave the cities, so the entire province is
under the Cuban flag.
In Santiago de Cuba fighting is going
on every day. The Spanish troops are
demoralized, hungry and naked. They can
get no pay, so are deserting the Spanish
flag and joining the patriots.
Spanish Gen'. Nario lost a valuable con-
voy with money and provisions that 3500
soldiers were taking from Maniabon to
Brenoza.
In Rancho Boyero the inhabitants were
not able to take supper Christmas night,
as the patriots were firing all night into
the city. The people were alarmed and
everybody lost his appetite, even the gar-
rison and commander.
In Cimarrones the patriots waited for the

San Francisco, Cali,, Jan. 8.—Advices
from Japan, per the steamship Coptic,
say: The trial of Mrs. W. R. H. Carew,
for wilful murder of her husband by pois-
oning, will commence Jan. 4, in her Brit-
annic majesty’s court, at Yokohama. Six-
ty British residents of Yokohama have
been summoned for a jury. Five only will
be actualy needed, but counsel on both
sides are expected to exercise great dis-
crimination. The case promises to be one
of the most sensational on record.
The rumor comes from Chinese sources
that a party of roughs in the city of Lan-
chow recentlj- seized a Roman Catholio
priest of the district, and compelled him,
by murderous threats, to bow before the
local idol, and sign a. document, Aie con-
tents of which are not stated.
It is believed the French cruiser Alger,
carrying the French admiral and French
consul general in Shanghai, has proceeded
to Nankin to exact reparation.
The Coptic brought advices from Hono-
lulu to the effect that Minister Henry F.
Cooper has presented to President Dole
and cabinet a full report of his trip to- the
United States, and interviews with prom-
inent men on Hawaiian matters. The
minister stated that his conviction was
that there would be a determination of
the Hawaiian question within a year, and
he regarded the prospect for annexation
excellent. No effort will be made on the
part of Hawaii to bring up the question
at the present congress, but Mr. Hatch
stands in readiness to act in the special
session.
The condition of Minister Willis, whose
illness at one time caused his family and
friends great uneasiness, was improved
when the steamer Coptic left Honolulu?
A Half Breed Indian’s Right to Forty-two
Acres in Kansas City.
Kansas City, Mo., Jan. 8.—Joseph Bou-
langer. a half breed Osage Indian, is here
from Elgin, Kan., and announces that he
will immediately bring suit to recover 42
acres of land in the heart of Kansas City,
now worth between $40,000,000 and $50,000,-
000. The land was bought by the govern-
ment in 1832 from Collise Montardeau, a
French trader, who was'the grandfather
of the present claimant. Boulanger is a
prosperous farmer and has lived in Elgin
for years. He shows apparently indis-
putable proof of his relation to Montar-
deau.
On March 12, 1894, Boulanger read in a
Kansas City paper of the filing of the
patent granted to Collise Montardeau by
President Andrew Jackson, whose signa-
ture was affixed by A. J. Donelson. his sec-
retary. The land was paid for at the land
office in Lexington.
Boulanger claims that his grandfather,
being ignorant of legal forms, had never
filed the patent and that the transfers of
the property since then have been invalid.
He has since secured power of attorney
from all the other heirs, mostly his cous-
ins, and is now determined to push his
claim. The property holds the largest
building in Kansas City.

ANGERED MINERS.
Light Scales Caused a Row Which May
Lead to Violence.
Ottawa, Ill.. Jan. 8.—Sheriff Yockey has
left for Rutland villago with 16 special
,deputies, picked from the old militiamen
and armed with Marlin repeating rifles, on
a call for help from Deputy Matt Coulson,
who has beeen on the ground ever since
Monday, when the miners at Emerson
Hake’s shaft threatened to raze the build-
ings. The telegram to Sheriff Yockey was
to the effect that between 200 and 300
Italians and Austrians were parading the
streets and threatening to loot Hake’s
store and burn the shaft.
The trouble grew out of a break in the
scales, which weighed 450 pounds light. It
was several days before the miners dis-
covered this. The manager failed to keep
his promise to repair the scales and the
men quiet. He has refused to pay them
the money due, claiming they are not dis-
charged and must wait until pay day, Jan.
16, for their money. The Rutland miners
have been joined by miners from sur-
rounding towns. Many of them are armed.
Rutland is a village of 1000 inhabitants,
half way between Wenona and Minonk.
Rescued in the Nick of Time—His Com-
panion Crazed.
Jacksonville, Fla., Jan. 8.—As the United
States revenue cutter Boutwell was ap-
proaching. the mouth of the St. Johns river
late last evening the lookout discovered a
cat rigged yawl flying a flag of distress.
One of the Boutwell’s boats sent to inves-
tigate found a sailor on the bottom of the
yawl unconscious, and his mouth was on
his naked forearm, as though he had tried
to drink his own blood.
He proved to be Capt. Charles Herman
of Providence, R. L, who left that place
Nov. 1, accompanied by Charles Gladding,
in the yawl Cocheco, for a cruise along
the coast of Florida. When they ■ lef t
Charleston on Dec. 26 they were blown out
to sea. Their provisions and water were
soon exhausted. Last Friday, Herman
thinks it vzas, the light house, on Anastia
island was sighted. By this time Gladding
was crazy and put off for shore in a boat
attached to the Cocheco and undoubtedly
was lost. Herman remembers nothing
else and must have become unconscious
shortly after Gladding left. The Cocheco
then drifted up the coast with its uncon-
scious master until discovered by the
Boutwell. Herman ’weighed 180 pounds
when he left Providence. He now weighs
only 110 and is so weak he can hardly raise
his hand.

Gov. Harris Opposed to the Dawes Treaty
of Allotment.
Ardmore, I. T., Jan. 8.—Gov. Harris has
delivered his message to the legislature,
which is now in session at Tishomingo.
It deals entirely with the work of the
Dawes commission, and is in part as fol-
lows:
“Owing to the fact of the great uneasi-
ness plainly manifested by the people
throughout the nation, you are called to
determine what is. best to b®,done in the
matter of common defense arid protection
of our national and property rights and
the maintenance or surrender of our tribal
autonomy and present conditions. The
Dawes Choctaw treaty does not suit. Such
an agreement is not the best for our peo-
ple, and unless prompt action be taken
that treaty may be ratified and the same
made applicable to us. We have two
courses to pursue—treat, with Dawes or
do nothing and take the consequences.”
The governor then says: “As an Indian.
I must prefer to remain as we are, yet
my better judgment teaches me rthat this
is impossible. We are the weak in the
hands of the strong, and while wTe should
command we are only begging for our
government, our property rights, our
lands, and, O, God, our nation’s home.”
Swept from a Wagon Crossing
Missouri Creek.
Plato, Mo., Jan. 8.—News has just
reached here of the drowning of five chil-
dren on Saturday, the 2d, as the result of
floods in Texas county. Thomas Wilson,
accompanied by his daughter, Mrs. Kin-
nery, and her five children, attempted to
ford Prairie creek, which was very high
as a result of recent rains. The team be-
came unmanageable and soon lost their
foothold. The wagon, weighted with its
human freight, sank and the sideboards
floated away, throwing the entire party
into the water. Mr. Wilson and Mrs.
Kinnery succeeded in getting to shore,
but the children were drowned. Three of
the bodies have been recovered. Daniel
McGlothan was drowned the same day in
Mill creek.

New York, N. Y., Jan. 8.—A Key West
dispatch to the World says: Evidences of
awful butcheries at Guanabacoa accumu-
late daily. Advices from Havana report
that a great pit filled with corpses and
human fragments was discovered Mon-
day in a cane field not more than a mile
from that place. A careful investigation
revealed at least 20 whole bodies and many
more legs and arms, other parts of the
dismembered bodies being missing.
Of the bodies remaining entire four were
those of women, three of young misses,
one of a girl not more than 10 years old,
four of boys and the rest of men.
Permission to bury the remains was bru-
tally refised, with the threat that if this
slaughter was complained of many more
would be killed.
A girls’ school near the center of the
town was entered by troops one day last
week and the principal, an elderly Cuban
born woman, very prominent, was com-
pelled to kneel to the officer in command
and beg pardon for using translations of
text books printed in the United States.
The girl pupils were insulted and rudely
treated until the school was broken up in
disorder. A complaint to the commandant
only excited laughter that “such a little
thing” was complained of.
Havana is much agitated by
victories won by Gomez’s army,
successful crossing of the
Pinar del Rio and of several routs of the
Spanish troops. Gen. Weyler is execrated
on every hand, but on account of the se-
vere censorship,’ no one dare say a word
aloud. Every one thinks his neighbor
spy, and little can be learned from any
che.
Spies by the hundreds attend the open
air concerts, and the least dissatisfaction
expressed is used as a pretext, and the
prisoner is thrust into the Cabanas or Moro
castle almost immediately, never to be
sen again by friends or kindred.
Scarcely a night passes, but from 10 to
20 persons disappear, and every one knows
what that means.

VENEZUELAN NOTES.
New York, N. Y., Jan. 8.—A special to
the Flerald, from Caracas, Venezuela,
says: President Crespo, in receiving dep-
utations of the Liberal party, announced
that he firmly intends to withdraw from
the presidency in February, 1898.
The American horse Midias won the
Caracas race.
The arbitration decision in the Fabiani
claim is welcomed. The government is
satisfied.
THE JUNTA’S PLANS.
New York, N. Y., Jan. 8.—A special to
the Herald, from Havana, Cuba, says: El
Pais, a newspaper here, gives a detailed
account of the new’ system followed by
the Cuban junta, in trying to send arms
and ammunition to the Cuban rebels on
vessels which have legally cleared from
the United States. It alleges that it is
the intention of the junta to cause trouble
beween Spain and the United States. It
says that a vessel having arms could be
seized by a Spanish gun boat as a pirate,
and that the United States would not
recognize the right of the Spanish gov-
ernment to do so.
Lumber Men, Wool Men and Fruit Grow-
ers Want Protection.
San Francisco, Cali., Jan. 8.—At the first
meeting of the session pf the State tariff
association- representatives were present
of the wool and lumber industries, with
many fruit and wine producers. A com-
mittee of five was appointed to hear sug-
gestions regarding changes in the tariff
from the various industries and to formu-
late tariff recommendations, which when
approved by the association will be for-
warded to the ways and means committee
at Washington. The following resolution
was adopted:
“Resolved, that in arranging’ a new
tariff the California delegation in congress
is respectfully urged to procure the free
entry or taking out of bond of all mate-
rials actually used for construction, re-
pairs, equipment or subsistence of Ameri-
can built ships in the foreign trade.”
