,RAH rOR TIE FOTRTH.

The Fourth OF July, 1896, will be worthily
celebrated ia this city OF Providercs by
the patriotic blowing in and shooting of
OF four thousand dollars, and the distino-
tion OF being, so far, the father Of his
country belongs this year to Councilman
FRANCIS W. MINER, Jr., who thus
auspiciously begins public life and usurps
at one bound the envied position OF Al
dermsn MYRoN IA. FULLER, himself we
believe the successor TO the mantle OF ex-
Alderman HENRY B. WINsHIP as the
reviver, re-fou ,der and re-promoter of
fitting Fourth OF July expression in this
erstwhile snoopy community. But al
though Major MINER thus assumes one OF
the several and many functions of public
usefulness that have been heretofore SEEM
ingly inslienably associated with the
name and fame o; Colonel FULLER, the
honor is still retained to the Sixth Ward,
the banner ward of patriotism, district
wherein i is Fourth of July nearly every
day in the year with running torrents Of
patriotic fervor pouring almost unceas-
ingly from Washington Park to Trinity
square and back again, up hill and down
hill with equal facility.
! IT is, we believe, matter Of record
that the introducer OF the Fourth OF July
resolution always gets a denomination
and equally always, a reelection. And
for those spare few Councilmen who
voted against the resolution we have
only pity, though justice demands that
some punishment be meted out TO them.
We suggest that their applications TO ride
as aides on the staff of the chief marshal
be refused.

securing verlhcation is that that has
been told US OF insurgent successes. II
seems nov as certain as the most hopeful
friends of the Cuban cause could have
hoped for that Che insurgent army has
marched tlesr from the far eastern end OF
Cuba right up to the gates OF Havana.
Amszlng as this seems in view OF the
fact that ny contrast with the troops
that Spain has sent to Cusa the Cuba,
army is hardly more than good sized
scouting party, the success OF the move
ment IA by no means inexplicatle. Out
side OF the seclusion OF government
circles" in Madrid and Havana there is
no means OF knowing how many OF the
$50, 900 soldiers that have been landed in
Cuba to put down the rebellion have been
or are today actually available for SER
vice. II is known, however, that sick
ness and death and poor clothing and
bal handling have reduced the efficiency
OF this force far below what the big fig
ures would indicate as its possession.
And another thing that is important is
known; that is: that the Cuban army,
variously estimated at from 12,o0) to
%, coo men, includes actually more cavalry
than the far larger Spanish force and
chat 1t is cavalry only that is available
for campaigning in Cuba.
There are few railroads on the island
available for military purposes, and even
fewer highways. Even cavalry can only
move slowly through the rough country
and the thousands OF infantrymen in the
Spanish army must be well nigh useless
for any aggressive operations. Tho Cuban
army, or that part ofit W hich is engaged in
the remarkabl forward movement right
through the heart OF the Spanish lines,
is undou b,edly all cavalry. Gen. GOMEZ
and his force with their superior know
ledge OF the country aud superior equip
ment for campaigning have simply out
generated, out hsnkod and cut through
the practically numberless force OF
DE CAMPos. The little band OF
insurgents that rose up in far
eastern Santiago has marched the
length OF the island and has grown into
a sizatJe army on the way. The Spanish
troops have been successfully eluded and
the big Spanish naval force has fioated up
and down the coast without contributing
any assistance to the land forces or sue
cceding in shutting out blockade runners.
As an example OF audacious and skillful
guerilla campaigning the march Of the
GOMEZ army will find prominent place
in history. 1t has in several features more
claims to our admiration than Sherid
famous raid down the Shena ndonh, and 1t
is making an important chapter in the
history OF a probable nation, the Cuban
Republic.

With the return of cool weather
ghosts of men and women, who relied
on their summer vacation to make
them strong and well came home still
tired, with poor appetites and de-
pressed 10y the thought of the months
Of hard work ahead.
Their overweight nerves and
bodies today demand something more
than mere rest. Their blood needs
to be swept of its impurities and the
entire nervous organization reinforced
and built up by genuine invigorator
before good appetite will wait on di-
ges tiOn and health on both.
The bracing weather Of November,
with debilitating summer past, and
the severity of winter not yet arrived,
is the very best time for recruiting
the strength and getting rid Of dis
ease. Contrast the healthy, well nour-
ished appearance of persons who have
taken Pains celery compound with
their former bloodless, nerveless,
