SAVED THE SENATOR ONCE.
COrinne Blackburn Has Worked
Hard in Her Fathers Canvass

Joe Blackburn's first lieutenant in his
canvass for reelection to the United
States senate is his handsome, dark
eyed daughter, Miss Corinne Blackburn,
who saved the day for him once before,
when the Kentucky legislature was
dead-locked in 1883, and who hopes
with all her heart that she may be
able to again turn the tide of victory in
Marse Joe's direction She was far away
in Belgium visiting with the family
of United States Minister James EW-
ing, but when the first gun in the
Kentucy senatorial campaign was
fired last spring, shep acked her trunk,
forsook the gay life of diplomatic So
ciety and hurried back to the Black
burn home. in Versailles, to. aid her
father in his great struggle for re-
election.
She received his letters and tele-
grams, sent answers in the absence of
her father and wired him of any new
development in his canvass. She also
received with captivating grace and
tact the friends and constituents who
called at the senator's home. Miss
Corinne is of tall and commanding fig
ure, her eyes and hair are dark brown,
and her complexion is clear and beau
tiful. She is a thorough woman of the
world, and her charming manners are
equally well known in Kentucky, Wash
ington and Brussels. She is a talent
ed musician, a splendid Conversations
list and politician from the ground up
1t is related that the fight in the Ken
lucky legislature in 1883 was unusu-
ally close and exciting. Senator
Cerro Gordo Williams was candidate
for reelection, and Blackburn, then
congressman, was endeavoring to cap
ture the coveted place. The legislature
was deadlocked and remained so for
two weeks. during which time feeling at
the state capital was keyed to a high
pitch of excitement. One day, after the
seventy-second ballot, it was an
nounced that a young bachelor senator
had been won over to the Blackburn
camp, and On the seventy-third ballot
Blackburn was elected to the United
States senate. Miss Corinne was
credited with having turned the dead
lock into victory for her father.

CRESPO,S WILLIAM TELL ACT.
He Lets an American Girl Shoot
Glass Balls From His Head.

Gen. Joaquin Crespo, president of
Venezuela, is noted for his daring. He
endeared himself to his soldiers in
battle by keeping in the front rank
whenever there was danger, refusing
to heed the cautious warning of his
friends that his life was too valuable
to his country to risk unnecessarily.
An American variety company ap-
peared in Caracas recently, under the
management of Ceballos and Tatali.
In included several good acrobatic and
gymnastic performers and two sharp
shooters, man and wife, advertised
as Coleman and MeXis, whose work
soon became the talk of the town. The
manager, Ceballos, who had long
experience with Barnum & Bailey's
circus in the United States, thought that
it would INCREASE the prestige of his
show if he could have private eXhi
bition of shooting in the presence Of
the president. The thing was arranged,
and on Sunday morning Mr.. Coleman
decked his long, lean body in dress
suit, with a string of medals in the
lapel of his coat Miss MeXis donned
q pretty dress, with a skirt reaching
to her knees, pair of top boots and
a military cap. Mr.. -Ceballos, wearing
a diamond pin as large as an acorn,
escorted them to the yard back of
Santa Inez, the presidential mansion,
w
details attended to before the presi-
dent and the persons who happened to
be visiting him were called out to see
the shooting.
The exhibition began with fancy
shots at glass balls. The woman, Miss
Mexis, broke balls her husband held in
his hands. She grasped her rifle in all
sorts of positions. She stretched back
ward, forward, up and down, and at
each crack a ball was shattered Cole
before the target. Then Miss MeXis
she would deem it the greatest honor
on his head. The president was
to the manager and asked:
"Is 1t a safe thing to do?"
Il will answer for her with my life"
dramatically replied Ceballos.
Very WE'LL said Gen. Crespo. I'll
try it, just to show what confidence 1
have in North Americans"
Mrs. Crespo did not seem to feel the
same confidence in the woman, as she
retired without seeing any more of the
shooting. The president walked for
ward to the target, allowed Coleman to
arrange the little black ball on his
head and then stood still, awaiting re-
suits. Mexis' hand was as sure as was
that of the traditional William Tell.
Her rifle was directed toward the ball
for a moment. Then crack and shat
tered particles of glass fell about the
president. The rest of the shooting
was of the conventional order.

The first glance of Great Britain that

rock, situated nine miles south of Crook
haven. at the extreme southwest corner
of ireland, and is, perhaps, more storm
beaten than any other around our
coast. The rock is eighty feet in height,

tremendous force. Some two or three
years ago the stormy weather then
prevailing prevented all communica-

that the store of food was consumed,
with the exception of some flour. At
last a schooner managed to approach
sufficiently near to enable small guam
tity of food to be dragged through the
sea by the hungry men, and, fortunate

and the stores We're once more fully

Except in very calm weather the

throw out a small buoy, attached to a
rope, which is secured by the man in
the boat. The jib is then swung out,

rope, is hoisted about forty feet YER

An animated MACHINE.
What Was Developed I'm a Most In
teresting Conversation With a
Great and Honest Scientific Man.

"The most remarkable machine in the
world is the human BODY
He was a Professor in New York
Medical college who declared this to a
number of friends at the Club. Con-
tinuing he said:
'Take for example, the heart. Did
you ever stop to think that 1T works
every minute of the life and never has
a vacation or rest?'
"And that there are the kidneys, which
have been truly called the filter of the
body They separate every particle of
liquid that passes from the body, ex-
cept that which oozes through the
pores"
did 1t ever occur to you that this
machine might wear out from over
work, over-taXation, over-exertion?
And so it does in too many cases.
For more than five hundred years
the world and the medical profession
CROPPED in the dark for remedy to sus-
tain the kidneys, or cure them if they
had become weakened or diseased,
and 1t was only within the past twenty
years that any remedy was found. DR..
Bright discovered the disease known as
Brights disease, but he could not and
did not find remedy. 1t remained for
modern research to discover this rem
Guy we KNOW IL was a long search,
but at last it was found, and that rem
edy today which is acknowledged as
the only remedy for kidney trou-
bles, the weaknesses of wom-
en- and Bright's disease itself, is
Warmers Safe Cure, which is admitted
by professional and scientific men
throughout the entire world, to be the
great modern discovery, and the only
one for these troubles
This remedy is not an experiment.
1t has been used for over twenty years
in all parts Of the world, and there are
more than million persons in the uni
verse today whose lives have been saw
ed, or who have been benefited by it's
use. 1t is a high, standard, scientific
preparation as far above ordinary rem
edies for this Great Modern Disease as
the oak is above the mushroom"
where such serious things as the
greatest organs of the body are con-
cerned no man and no woman can afford
to take chances. The best is the cheap
est and where health is involved it
is absolutely beyond question that the
most standard, the most scientific, and
that which alone has been proven to be
powerful and good, should be used"

other provinces, and in many cases
the refugees are people who have lost
almost everything they possessed and
a very great number Of them, here and
elsewhere, are depending upon char
ity. The cost of the war has been
enormous and the drain created by
provisioning the army has been very
great. Consequently, this extra ex-
.,s--se which the authorities will have
20 meet in some manner or other Is
causing them a great deal Of anxiety.
However, there is a large and ever
increasing exodus of planters and
others from this city, hundreds leaving
by every ship bound for the United
States, Jamaica, Hayti or South Amer
lea ports. The increase of crime in all
the provinces is said to be enormous.
Business is almost at a standstill and
commerce is practically thing of the
past.
In spite of this assurance, however,
walls here. There is no longer any
talk Of settling the instruction by
crushing blow, and although the adj
vent of Gen. Wey1er is looked for
ward to as likely to be the signal for
more active operations against the
rebels, the feeling grows that the
struggle is a most exhausting one for
all concerned and that much more
blood and treasure must be expended
by Spain If the insurrection is to be
quelled by force Of arms. Under these
circumstances, it is not astonishing
that a feeling in favor Of some COM
promise arrangement is steadily grow
ing and all eyes are turning toward
the United States as likely to be the
great factor in bringing peace and
prosperity once more to unhappy Cuba.
The insurgents have pIundered the
stores In the village of Baja, Pinar del
Rio. A rapid firing gun on the gun
boat Fecha was brought into play and
did good service in dispensing the in
surgents. Their greatest activity
seems to be centered for the present
in the povince of Matanzas. A God
deal of damage is being done, and 1t Is
probable that the movement has a
strategic purpose to prevent the Span
fsh forces from capturing Gomez's
forces near Havana.
