A SURPRISE FOR eALMAcEpA

The Insurgents Land . Heavy Force In
His Rear.
VALPARAISO, Chilli, Aug. 22.-The in
surgent army effected landing yester-
day morning at Quintero bay only
twenty miles north of here. According
to the lowest estimate it numbers s, ZOO
men. They were brought down from
Caldero on eight transports. three tugs
and four war ships The point of land
ing is about fifty miles from Santiago.
where Balmaceda's forces, to the num-
Der 10, 900 have been stationed
Quintero bay is the entrance to a val.
and Valparaiso.
1t now appears that the lowering of
the insurgent feet in the neighborhood
of Coquimbo bay was only a scheme to
deceive Balmaceda- By coming so far
south the insurgents leave the large
force of Balmacedists at Coquimbo
many miles north of them and helpless
to render any aid to the government
army in this section.
The landing at Quintero bay was,
therefore. a complete surprise to the
president, but as soon as he heard the
news he acted promptly. BY his COM
mand large force was sent north to
meet the enemy. Adm Brown from his
flagship, the San Francisco, saw the
landing of the insurgents They are
all we'll armed and enthusiastic.
1t looks as if the most important en-
gagement so far in the present war is
about to be fought On its result de-
ponds the complete overthrow of Bal
maceda or of his opponents. The rout
of the presidents forces would undoubt-
dely be quickly followed by capture OF
the both Valparaiso and Santiago by
the army of the insurgents.

There's danger

There's danger

there's a cure for it in DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. A posi-
tive cure not only for Weak
Lungs, Splitting of Blood, Bron-
chitis, Asthma and all lingering
Coughs, but for Consumption itself
in all its earlier stages. It's rea-
sonable. All these diseases depend
on tainted blood. Consumption is
simply Lung scrofula. And for
every form of scrofula and blood
faint, the Discovery" is a certain
remedy. It's so certain, that it's
makers guarantee it to benefit or
cure, in every case, or the money is
refunded. With a medicine that IS
certain, this can be done.
There's cure for Catarrh, too,
no matter what you've been led to
believe. If there isn't, in your case,
you'll get $500 cash. It's a bona
fide offer that's made by the pro-
prietors of DR.. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy. There's risk in it, to be.
sure, but they are willing to take
the risk-you ought to be glad
to take the medicine.

Straw Hats in latest styles and end
less variety at BLALOck'S. If
Rosemont Cemetery.

About two years ago and at other
times The Herald and News spoke of
the condition in which our city of the
dead was kept, and OF the impor-
tance Of doing something in the way of
improvement. Nothing was done, and
the soughing Of the pines and the ran
kle Of the weeds are all that greet the
ear, ard eye in this silent city of re-
pose. The Herald and News does not
like to make any suggestions, but it
does seem that something might and
ought to be done by which we could
take some better care Of the place where
our dead are buried.
There is not even a we'll or place
where one can get water TO put on the
flowers that may be placed upon the
graves to keep them fresh. If there
could be concert of action among those
who have lots there, by which some
one could be employed to keep the
ground in good condition, the cost to
each one would be very small and the
grounds could be very much improved
in appearance. And a we'll might be
dug in the corner towards town, at a
small cost, from which water for flow
ers could be obtained.
We would like to suggest the advis-
ability of those interested in the matter
holding a meeting and forming them
selves into an association for the pur-
pose of keeping the grounds and lots in
better condition. but would prefer that
some one else do it. The Herald and
News will encourage the matter all in
its power and do whatever it can to
make it a success. The editor feels an
interest in it and will do all he can.
Will not some Of our lady friends
take hold of this matter? 1t will sue
ceed if YOU do.

town and the other to obtain fran
chise from the town and organize a

Mr.. Drlyton L. Ham, of the st. Luke
section, and a genius OF no mean pre-,
tensions, has invented cotton SEED
planter which promises to exceed all
other planters heretofore invented. The
merits of the machine are simplicity OF
construction, durability, and perfect
adaptability to planting regularly in all
kinds of soil Mr.. Ham has made ap-
plication for and received letters or
patent for his machine. With all the
working force which he commands
he could not makea sufficient quantity
of planters to supply the home demand.
Mr.. Ham hopes to be in position by
next planting season to supply planters
for all the cotton States.
