Professor NIunyon does not claim
that he has one remedy that will cSte
all complaints. but that he has pre-
pared a specific cure for nearly every
disease. He does not claim that his
rheumatism Cure will cure consump-
ton, Dyspepsia or any other com
plant. but he does guarantee that it
will cure rheumatism. His Dyspepsia
Cure is prepared expressly to cure
dyspepsia; his Cough Cure to cure
coughs; his Catarrh Remedies to cure
catarrh; his Kidney Cure to cure kid
ney troubles. The same may be said
of all his different remedies.
Why Not Try the New Methods:
Why pay big doctor bills to have
your constitution ruined by old-fash-
Toned doses Of mercury. quinine and
morphine? Why not try the new way?
Munyon's remedies are prepared in a
manner that enabled everyone to OBJ
tain them from any druggist at %

each disease. Absolutely harmless
and promptly effectual in curing even
the most obstinate diseases.

STRUGGLE GROWING BITTER.
Ruin of Sugar Planters Assured
Insurgents Lack Military Stores,
But Growing in Numbers-Campos
Annoyed.

LONDON, Oct. "a dispatch to the
Times from Havana, dated October 5,
which will be published tomorrow will
say:
L have just returned from long
tour through the province of Santa
Clara. 1 found that the bitterness Of
feeling between the Cubans and Span
iards is growing stronger. While the
numbers of the insurgents in the pro-
vince of Santa Clara have largely in
creased lately, 1 do not see how it is
possible for the insurgents Ito make an
attack on the Spanish forces unless
they obtain a great addition of arms
and ammunition. Judging from the
conversation of Captain General de
Campos and the general distribution of
troops, it is evident that a detailed
military occupation of the island is
considered necessary at the present
time and probably continuing next
year The sugar planters of Santa
CARA express great uncertainty
whether to make sugar. A crop is lost
and this means absolute ruin to many
establishments. In a circular letter
sent to the planters of the southern
division of Santa Clara, the insurgents
demanded contributions for The insur-
gents cause, according to the value
OF the property and stated that if the
aeNhahcS We're NOT complied with deS-
truGtion would follow.
I'm an interview, a copy of which I
cabled on Thursday last, Captain Cen
eral Campos expressed annoyance at
the attitude of the United States at
the present tune, especially regarding
the attempts of the Spaniards to pre-
vent the landing of expeditions and
quoting the Alliance steamship affair
as AN instance of unnecessary trouble
The damage done by the late hurricane
to the Western railway is estimated al
10000 sterling and through traffic is
stil impossible"
