THIS MEANS YOU.
Your Past and Your Present
COntraSted.
How Terribly You Have Changed Since
Then.
An Exact Pictare of Your Present
Condition.

How keenly the vision of the past comes
home to thousands, and with how sharp a
pang do we regret our vanished health and
strength As in dream we remember our
sturdy youth, overAowing with boisterous
vitality. We recall our strong and lusty
past, when our nerves seemed of Steel our
muscles of iron and our power Of endurance
knew no fatigue.
How different is the picture when we sud
denly find ourselves with weak and shat
tered nerves, tired brains and exhausted
bodies, depressed and disprited, broken
down alike in nervous and physical health
We are prodigal of our powers, vigor and
energies in youth and early life. We use
them up in business, work, pleasure or dis
sipation, and suddenly find ourselves old
before our time, prostated in health, ex-
hausted in brain and nerve power, and left
without physical energies, nerve strength or
ambition. Then, like the prodigal we would
return to our former condition of strength
and health.
Luckily for us, there is that great and
wonderful restorative, DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy, which will give
back to the weakened and exhausted sys-
TEN the strength it has lost; the marvellous
remedy which imparts strength and vgor to
brain and nerves, vitaliZes and invigorates
all the physical powers and restores us again
to that grand degree of lusty strength, of
bounding pulse and strong physical and
nerve power, which, in ignorance or folly,
we have exhausted.
Here is the proof. Mr.. John c. Mlroy,
who is a foreman of the lIeriden, Conn,
Britannia Co., has for years been noted for
his enormous strength. This great strength
he lost, and now he has recovered it again
| by using DR., Greene's Nervura.

GENERAL MARIN's FAILURE.
Checkmated in His Effort to Corner" tn,
Insurgent Forces.

Checkmated in His Effort to "Corner" the
Insurgent Forces.
HAVANA, Feb. 4.-General Marin has
had an engagement with body of the in
surgents, which he reports to be the
main force under Gomez, and which was
put to flight with a loss of twenty killed.
The entire absence of any details as to the
number Of insurgents in the body at
tackled leaves some ground for doubt as to
whether it was, in truth, Gomez's imme-
diate following Pretty much the whole
of the combined columns under General
Marin, including LOO cavalry seems to
have been engaged.
This force was equipped with special
view to running down and cornerlng the
insurgents when once it should come face
to face with them, and great expectations
were founded on its supposed ability to do
this But the report of Yesterdays en-
gagement, although it indicates that the
Spanish attack was made with great dash
and vigor seems to indicate that the in
'6NTgents were as successful in evading the
B hnish forces rs they have been at any
81 e heretofore.
10 z is also reported that the columns un-
l." Scommand of General Cornell operat-
q jim combination with those under Gen
Linares and Aldecoa, are in pursuit
numerous band of insurgents near
Al dlnisa, which is supposed to be Maceo's s
MAN fOrce. This band is said to be striv-
ing to effect a junction with Gomez, and
1t seems in fair way to do SO, as there is
no apparent check in its advance along the
coast of Pinar del Rio.
Refugees arriving from Pinar del Rio
province report that the insurgents have
burned Paso Real and Palacios which
were along the line of Maceos march from
the western portion of Pinar del Rio to-
wards the Havana province line
The band led by Pedro Diaz numbering
a thousand, is reported as making active
movements about Guira Melena, Gabriel
and LaSud, which are between the Bata-
bano military line and Artemisa.
Further news is awaited with lively in
terest as it is believed it will be proved in
very short time whether the effort of
Maceo and Gomez to form a junction will
prove successful or not.

COMMANDER AND MRS BALLINGrON BOOTH
from Bramwell Booth to Mayor Strong
explaining the object Of Commander Bal
lington Booths recall. The speaker said
that the gathering was not for the purpose
of taking issue with anything contained
in the cablcgram, but to express our own
views, no matter what London will think
about the infant, which has grown large,
is very much alive and liable to kick"
eve are here tonight" said DR.. Depew,
"to pay tribute to the leadcrs-Gcncral
Booth and Commander Ballington Booth.
To General Booth we say we fully recog-
nize your power the system you have, but
about the recall of Commander Balling-
ton and Mrs Booth, we have this sugges-
tion to make. Being 5000 miles away,
our customs are different, and we take
leave to present petition and inquire,
can they be replaced by strangerS
"And there is another reason" contin-
ued DR. Depew, Commander and Mrs
Booth have become naturalized. l met
them on an excursion steamer going to
Europe few years ago. The pleasure
seekers were in the first cabin, the minis
ters and school teachers in the second
cabin. Mrs. Booth was in the second
cabin, and l suggested to the 400 in the
first cabin-the fashionable crowd who at
the Grand Opera House are known as the
crowned heads, because they wear diamond
tiaras-that she be taken into the first
cabin. They did so, and they found Mrs.
Booth a pure and intelligent woman, and
she succeeded in converting the 400, not
to the Salvation Arn-J, but to its uses and
services in the world.
"They are part and party of the United
States, and in their behalf we will assert
the Monroe doctrine. We cannot surren-
der to a foreigner any of our territory, and
in order to avoid the greatest international
trouble we suggest the appointment of a
new commission, or continue diplomatic
correspondence for few years at least,
as we believe that Commander and Mrs
Booth have not fulfilled their mission in
the United States"
Mayor Strong said that he, like the
others, had attended the meeting to pro
test against the recall of Commander Bal
ington and Mrs. Booth, and to, if possible
add the dignity of his Office to the move.
ment set on foot
Addresses in a similar strain were deliv-
cred by Bishop Andrews, Rev. DIR. Strong
and William K. Dodge, and letters were
read from Clara Barton, Governor Rugg,
of California, and others, and then reso-
lutions were adopted strongly urging
General Booth to reconsider the recall of
the commander of the forces in America.

it was interpreted one way by the
company and a different way by the
men. He is reported to have said that

JoHNSToN'S BIG MAJORITY
REPUBLICAN PoPULIST FUSION
TICKET DEFEATED.

Montgomery, Ala Aug 4. The
size of the democratic majority seems
to be all that remains in doubt as to
the results of yesterdays state cleo
ton. Because of the slow process Of
counting votes under the new ballot
law, the returns are necessarily slew
in coming in, but there is no doubt
of complete democratic victory In
complete return from about half the
counties indicate democratic gains in
all but Mobile and Macon. In the for
mer the democrats appear to have lost
500 votes by stay-at-homes, but the
county is still in the democratic col
umn by 500 majority. In Macon
county, which gave Oates majority
of 500 in 1894. the result is close and
