THE PROPER TIME

When the most benefit is to be derived
from a good medicine, is early in the
year. This is the season when the
tired body, weakened organs and nery-
Gus system yearn for a buildingrup
medicine like Hoods Sarsaparflla.
Many wait for the open spring weather
and, in fact, delay giving attention to
their physical condition so long that a
long siege of sickness is inevitable.
To rid the system of the impurities &C
cumulated during the winter season,
to purify the blood and to invigorate
the whole system, there is nothing
equal to Hoods Sarsaparilla. Don't
put it of, but take Hoods Sarsaparilla
now. 1t will do you good. Read the
testimonials published in behalf OF
Hoods Sarsaparilla, all form reliable,
grateful people They tell the story.

ENGLAND AND SPAIN.
When They Both Wanted to and Neither
Dared Declare War.


Devotion to the queens majesty was
the picturesque form of an intense pa
triotism, and as the sixteenth century
entered it's last decade patriotism be.
came simply hatred Of Spain. Strange
dogs which have never seen one another
before snarl when they meet; they scent
antipathies Two men will feel an in
stinctive mutual dislike even when the
course of business makes formal polite
ness necessary. So it was with English
man and Spaniard. The necessities of
politics kept the two courts for long
years on terms Of hollow politeness. 1t
was strained again and again to break
ing point, but neither side could afford
to break it. If Philip were to declare
war, France might remember old scores
still unsatisfied and the prosecuted
Netherlands would rise for revenge. If
Elizabeth yielded hastily to the pressure
of her ministers or her people or her
foreign allies, she might find the French
list ), the Dutch powerless and herself
pit. i alone against tho worldwide pow.
er and enormous wealth Of Spain, and
then her disaffected subjects would rise
and rally round her rival, Mary of Scot
land.
Each was obliged to play waiting
game-lying, complimenting, protesting,
with war at the heart and peace on the
lips. It was game which, though con-
genial to the peculiar temperament of
Elizabeth, wore out her ministers and
made Philip gloomy monomaniac.
Both sides were heartily sick of it, yet
neither dared throw up the cards. But
while the courts went through the weary
farce, the peoples knew that they were
enemies. There was a sphere far re-
moved from the control of cabinets-the
sea; and for years, while London and
Seville were at peace, on the high seas
there was war. The sea dogs" not only
snarled, but snapped. This was their
Importance in English history. At their
own risk, but with the full connivance
of the queen, they took the Spanish
matter into their own hands and dealt
with it in their own downright way,
The tales Of their deeds kept the ma,
tion from growing dull and tired of the
wearisome policy of the government,
and so forgetful of the great work which
God had given it to do. And when the
time came for the wornout masks to be
thrown aside, and Spain and England
looked at one another with the frank
war light in their eyes, the sea dogs were
straightway at the queens service, with
captains, crews and ships, not only ready
but trained for the great struggle. -
Good Words.

AMBUSHED THE DONS.
GENERAL GOMEZ TREATS THE SPAN
IARDS TO A SURPRISE.

The Royalists Lost 800 Men and Would
Have Been Completely Annihilated
But For the Timely Arrival of Rein
fercements-Old Man Gomez Is Well.
KEY WEST, Feb. 11.-Dr. J. D. Cas-
tillo, surgeon general of Gomez's army,
arrived here on the pilot boat Nonpareil,
which received him from schooner in
the gulf DIR. Castillo left Gomez's
headquarters Wednesday, and is the
bearer of dispatches to Cuban leaders in
New York. Castillo witnessed the bat
tie between the Spaniards and the in
surgents under Patricio Dlaz, which oc-
CURED Feb. 8, near Guanajay.
"Cannella," said Dr. Castillo, chad
been sent with 1900 men by Marin to
prevent Maceo and Gomez uniting.
Gomez learned of this and planned to
trap Cannella. The road Cannella was
on passed through the Saldridges stock
farm, and is fianked by fields divided
by stone fences. West of the fences is
hill, and there the trap was set. Six
hundred Cuban infantrymen were
placed behind the fences, and Diaz,
with 1000 cavalry, waited behind the
hill. As soon as Cannella's column was
in the trap the Cuban infantrymen
poured in a whitening fire.
'The Spaniards broke toward the west,
and then Diaz charged with his cav
airy, driving the Spaniards back to
where the Cuban infantry was con-
cealed. Caught by crossfire, the Span
iards huddled like sheep, and were easy
marks for our bullets. Finally Can
nella was wounded and the entire COM
mand fled in disorder toward Guanajay.
Diaz and his cavalry pursued, and the
Spaniards would have been utterly de-
stroyed had they not been met while
fleeing by heavy reinforcements from
Guapajay, where the firing had been
heard.
"When Diaz saw the Endorsements
he stopped pursuing. Although brief it
was one Of the bloodiest battles of the
war. There were fully 300 Spaniards
killed, for I counted over 200 corpses
myself. Our loss was only 40 killed, as
we were protected by the stone fences. "
Dr. Castillo says General Gomez has
not been killed or wounded by the Span
iards; neither has he died from con.
sumption as the Spaniards have per-
sistently tried to make the people of the
United States believe. He is in the best
of health and has an abundance of arms
ammunition and men, and is as conf.
dent of ultimate victory as he is that
| he is now engaged in war with Spain.

When Hansoms Are Dangerous.

The hanson cab is perhaps the most
convenient hackney carriage in the
world. 1t is light and handy to drive,
reasonably safe, and, to the trained Lon
doner, not too difficult to enter. But it
has one serious drawback, of which we
are reminded every returning winter.
This is that the seat is very liable to
get damp in wet weather. A mile or
two's sitting on the soaked cushions
may easily result in rheumatism. sciati-
ca or general chill, ending in more
or less serious illness.
The hanson cabman is very amenable
to public opinion, and if the public gen.
orally were to take to examining the
state of the cushions before engaging
the cabs it is probable that means
would be found to keep them dry. Even
as it is, the men take good deal Of
pains. but are not too we'll seconded by
their "fares,' who are very disposed to
get out, leaving the doors open, where
as a moments care will shut them. -

The Columbus, Hooking yalley and Toledo Rail-
way, known as the Buckeye Route, every where in
he great state of Ohio, has shown its progressive
ness and far-sightedness by building line of its
own to the great coal fields Of Jackson county and
reaching out for part of the great bulk of the
business coming rom that territory. The line
runs from Macarthur junction to Jackson, n dis
ia nee OF some seventeen miles, passing through
the thriving towns of Hamden, W ellstOn and Coal
ton. Three passenger trains are operated each
way to and from Columbus and two trains from
Ohio River points, thus giving the best possible
service and making the cities named n ore acces-
sble than ever before TO surrounding towns. In
The very near future electric line will he ope-
rated over the same tracks between Wellson and
jackson, giving patrons thirty minute service
during the busy hours of the day. When visiting
aamden, welston or jackson try the new line. 1t
