AWFUL DEVASTATION.
Main Body of Insurgents at Work in
Pinar del Rio.

Main Body of Insurgents at Work In
Pinar del Rio.
HAVANA, Jan. S.-Little news is re-
ceived in this city regarding the move
ments of either the Spanish or Cuban
forces, the lines of communication be-
ing cut in every direction out OF
Havana Enough is reported from
points in the province of Pinar del Rio,
however, to show that the insurgent
columns have covered wide territory
in that province and are increasingly
destroying the sugar cane and damag-
ing the tobacco crop.
The destruction of Guira Melena, the
burning of which has already been re-
ported, seems to have been complete.
It was an important village of 1000 in,
habitants. The report from there said
the insurgents plundered the church,
the business houses, the stores and
private residences, and then destroyed
them entirely. They are also said to
have killed the mayor and prominent
merchant of the place. Similar stories
come from other towns in the route of
the insurgents march. Guara, small
village east of Guara Malena, was also
burned.
Large Area Swept Clean.
The belt included in the country about
the villages of Quivican, Duran and
San Felipe, in the southern part of the
province of Havana, has been swept
clean by the destructive torch Of the
insurgents, and several more planta-
tions have been burned.
Incoming trains from the south are
bringing vast throngs of refugees, men,
women and children, some of whom
have been burned out Of house and
home, but most of whom are simply
fleeing from fear of violence, having
hastily gathered together a few house
hold goods. This large infusion Of
panic stricken people into the city's
population spreads contagion Of alarm
and the force and proximity of the in.
surrection becomes more real to the
mind of Havana every hour.
No Present Fear of Attack.
The main force of the insurgent army
is now in the province of Pinar del Rio,
the advance guard being at Pastoral
and Saco Taco A small band is re-
ported at Hoto Colorado and at Salud.
The opinion again holds here that the
movement of the insurgents is directed
against the country districts, and, al
though PREPARATIONS have been made
here against a possible surprise, there is
no present fear of an attack.
A statement, credited to DR.. Artigas,
that the Spanish military doctors are
poisoning the sick and wounded troops
is pronounced untrue. DR.. Artigas
course is pronounced most ungrateful.

teen years she has been badly broken
out all over her body, causing her ur-
told suffering, and frequently rendering
her unable to attend school. Her arms
and limbs would crack open and bleed,
then dry up and scale off by the hand
full, and at one time an awful sore APP
peared on her ear, which became severe
ly inhamed and almost dropped off.
The disease also broke out on her head
and her hair was a continuous mass of
scales. Her condition was truly pitia-
bic.
"Of course we have done all we could
TO relieve her, and have given her al
most every known treatment. She has
taken potash mixtures and various salves
and external applications by the whole
sale, and almost every so-called blood
remedy, all without the slightest
benefit, and year by year we could not
feel the slightest encouragement that
she would ever be well. l was advised
several times to send her to Hot Springs,
and also to a celebrated spring in Michi-
gan, and was told that this was the only
chance on earth of her ever being cured,
as the disease was too aggravated to be
checked by medicines.
"a few months ago, someone recon-
mended S. S. S., and as soon as her sys-
tenn had taken on the effects of this
medicine, an improvement was noticed.
She grew better all the while and con-
tinued to improve in every way We
were delighted to see her so much bet
ter and for the first time felt that she
would get we'll. The medicine was con-
tinued a while longer, and now she is
cured sound and well, her skin is clear
and pure, and she has been saved from
what threatened TO blight her life for
ever. The cure is all the more remark
able because she inherited the disease
which has been in our family for several
generations, and l am happy to find
in 5. S. $. a cure for a diseas which
all the specialists in the world fail to
cure. | consider S. S. S. a most wonder
ful remedy, and it certainly has no equal
for deep-seatcd blood diseases which all
other remedies do not seem to touch.
This experience is like that OF all others
who seek relief from the many so-called
blood purifiers, only to be discouraged.
1t is but Jolly to expect a cure from this
dreadful disease by the use of salves,
lotions, OF any external application.
The disease Is in the blood, and
only blood remedy can eliminate it.
S. S. S. is a real blood remedy, guaran-
teed purely vegetable, and ior real deep
seated blood diseases, has no equal. 1t
cures permanently Scrofula, letter,
Rheumatism, and all OF the many blood
diseases. Ii has made some truly re-
mari;able cures OF Cancer, full accounts
of which can be had on application; our

eases will also be sent free to any ad-

Old Kings greeting had been any
thing but cordial and friendly. Com
ing silently and swiftly around the
corner of the house with outstretched
neck and open bill, the gander had
seized the tramp by the calf of the leg
before he knew Of his approach.
The cowardly fellow slrieked with
pain and terror and started to run,
but Kings grip was not easily broken.
He held on, beating his great wings
furiously against the man legs.
The struggle continued out into the
dusty highway, and while it was go

Returning to the porch she fired
one shot into the air, and with one

King and fled down the road as fast
as his bruised and wounded legs would
carry him.

hisses and squawks of triumph, and
waddlng up to grandmother received
with becoming modesty her caresses
and words of praise and gratitude.
