With 4 better understanding of the

ical ills which vanish before proper eff.
forts-gentlc effOrtS-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge that SO many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to q constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
~ removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, andis
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. Its therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep
utable druggists. :
If in the enjoyment Of good health,
and the system is regular, then Taxa.
tives or other remedies arc not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most slzillful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informede everywhere, Syrupof
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

TOO WET TO TRAIL DEER.
The President Forced to Go Back 20
Ducks For HIS Sport.

Georgetown, S. c., Dec. 16.-The govern
ment launch Water Lily" came up to
the city this evening, reaching here about
s o'clock, bringing mail and dispatches
from the presidential party. From what
can be learned the President is well ard
enjoying the shooting hugely. The party
went out duck shooting early this morn
ing at Woods pond, and had first rate
luck, bagging something near a hundred
mallards, the greater part of which fell
under the fire from the Presidents gun.
As a deer drive had been arranged for
the day they were forced to leave the
ducks, and so on the drive. But the woods
were SO terribly wet from the recent rains
that the dogs could not keep the trail of
the deeTs and the hunt was abandoned.
The party broke camp this afternoon,
and embarking on the water Lilly" came
from the Santee through the Mosquito
creek canal to the lighthouse tender Wis
taria, which was anchored in Winyah Bay
near South Island.
After receiving the party, and taking on
board the baggage and bags of game, the
Wistaria steamed over to Muddy Bay,
where she lies tonight, about a mile dis
tant from the Annandale Club lodge, or
Friend Field"
President Cleveland and his companions
will go ducking In the marshes tomorrow
morning, and if the weather is cold and
windy as it has been to-day, for the ducks
questionably have fine sport, for the ducks
cannot sit out in the bay in windy
weather, in consequence of the roughness
of the water and always seek the quiet
ness of the many creeks which wind
around and through these marches, whom
these conditions prevail. 1t is then that
the hunter enjoys this exhilirating sport
to its fullest extent, and as this is what
Mr.. Cleveland came here for, II is quite
sure that he will have his desires fulfilled.
The President and party will remain at
Friend Field until Saturday, going duck
ing each morning, and as an invitation
has been extended them by Messrs. Dom
aldson Brothers for deer drive on their
lands, it is probable that they may yet
have the pleasure of adding buck or two
to their list of game.
Mayor Morgan received an acknowledge
ment from the President this evening of
the invitation and resolutions extended Ly
the city council and citizens to attend a
reception here as he passes through on his
return to Washington, in which he states
that his plans are not definitely formed
but that he will answer definitely In a
day or two. That he will accept it, is the
sincere desire of every citizen of old
Georgetown.

Deoth Have Been Adduced by the
snonish Looked Upon as Suspi-

havana. Dec. 16-Maceo's death is still
.urrounded by mystery.
The body is undiscovered, and no further
,roofs have been adduced except the Of
.,oI statement, which leads Cubans to
mink he is still alive. In fact, the resi-
aents of Punta Bravo, the vicinity in
ubich the gagement occurred, disbelieve
4 .ho story DR.. Zertucha continues to give
oontradictory evidence. He now says the
,.,ifa CAPTURED belonged to Gomezs son
and not to Maceo. The Cubans consider it
SIGNIFICANT that the objects captured are
not shown and also the alleged written
statement of Gomez's son. 1t is also sig
ridcsnt that no Cubans have surrendered
since the leaders alleged death, proving
either that it will not affect the revolution
or that Maceo is not dead.
Many rumors are afoat In connection
with Maceo's death and all are confusing.

4 tha town with a large force. Another is

q The Cubans disbelieve the story that Ma

& Geo was not easily trapped and would not

& Ahumada. He knew the gentleman by his
reputation.
The marine authorities are indignant at

The minister laid the fact before the cab

DAY. -fhe government is hiding all impor-
tant engagements. 1t is said important
encounters have occurred in Pinar del
Rio and Matanzas, but the details are
suppressed. In fact, the government Is
trying to impress the public that the rebel
ranks are demoralized since Maceo's al
legged death and shirk fights. Quite the
contrary, the rebels are displaying more
activity, even in the vicinity of the city,
where outposts are fired upon nightly.

NIoARAGU1 CANAL BILL.
Its Friends Trying to Have n Day
Fixed For Its Consideration.

Its Friends Trying to Have n Day
Fixed For It's Consideration.
Washington, Dec. 16,-The friends of the
Nlcaraguan canal bill do not propose that
1t shall slumber indefinitely upon the
House calendar. A petition addressed to
the speaker asking that day be set aside
for its consideration was circulated to-day
by Mr. Doolittle OF Washington. At 4
o'clock, It had received the signatures OF
more than two-hundred republicans and
nifty democratic members of the House.
Mr. Mahon Of Pennsylvania, who is a
member Of the subcommittee that drafted
tho measure, predicts that If it is called up
II will have practically unanimous vote
In it's favor.
The argument used by the supporters OF
the measure is that 1t does not call on the
government for an appropriation, but sim
ply requires the governments guarantees
for the payment of the principal and inter-
est on the bonds. The government on the
other hand is amply protected from loss
by a payment into the treasury of stock
equaliing the amount of bonds guaranteed
and in addition is to be given a mortgage
on the plant as the work progresses.

valencia, Dec 16.-A dispatch from Pa
lermo says the former Cuban filibusterng
steamer Laurada has left that port for
Gibraltar, where she will ship a cargo
and proceed for America
Baltimore, Md, Dec. 16.--J. H. Seward s
Co., the eharterers of the steamer Lau,
rada, are inclined to the belief that the
dispatch this morning from Valencia stat
ing that the Laurada had left Palermo
for Gibraltar, and inferentially that she
would not attempt landing at Valencia,
was inspired by the same person who
caused a cablegram to be sent to Seward
& Co. last Friday, stating that the United
states government had notified the consul
at Valencia mot to permit the Laurada
to enter"
To the best of our knowledge and be-
lief the Laurada is still at Palermo,
awaiting our ORDERS" said r. A. Tucker
OF Seward & Co. Now that we have
cleared up the situation somewhat
through my call at the state department
yesterday we will within a day or two
decide as to the future movements of the
Laurada, meanwhile she is lying at anchor
in Palermo.
Il found when called at the state de-
partment yesterday that a cablegram
which l received last Friday from Valen-
cla to the effect that the United States
government had interviewed to prevent the
Laurada from entering that port was
bogus, or had been based on a misconcep-
ton of facts. ] was informed at the out
set that we had no consul at Valencia.
and he, therefore, could not have been ad-
Vised to keep the Laurada out.
Then | was asked what action the Uni
ted States government would take If we
sent the Laurada to Valencia and she
should be troubled. 1 was told that the
government would furnish the ship with
ali the protection which would be given to
any vessel under our flag"
At Valencia the United States is repre-
sented by consular agent, who, no doubt,
is Spanish subject and Mr.. Tucker is
inclined to believe that this agent faxed
the telegram which was sent by the repre-
sentative of Mr.. Stewards house, he be-
lieving it to be correct
II am also inclined to believe that the
agent at Valencia cencocted the story told
our representative" added Mr.. Tucker,
with view of keeping the Laurada away
from Spain. 1 will cable our representa-
tive, and II our fruit can be loaded, we will
send the Laurada to Valencia at once The
matter cannot be determined until we hear
from him.
The representative of the Seward firm
did not see Secretary Olney at the state
department yesterday. The information
impaired at the department was given by

NEW PERIL FOR PUGILIsTs.
Arrest For Violating "A State Law
Hanging over Them.


Hanging Over Them.
San Francisco, Cal, Dec. 16.-The referee
to whom Judge Sanderson has relinquish-
ed the task of taking further dispositions
in the Fitzsimmons-Sharkey case, decided
this morning not to begin his iabors till
tomorrow, when it is expected this part of
the case will be completed.
There is a possibility that wholesale ar
rests will soon be made as one of the re-
suits of the recent battle. There is a state
law prohibiting any prize fight or encoun-
ter with or without gloves, where the par
ticipants are liable to injury. Yesterday
afternoon Judge Sanderson asked many
questions as to the nature of the contest
and several experts testified on the sub
ject. The questions appeared harmless
enough but it is asserted to-day
that his honor was gathering evidence
to place before the grand jury in or
der to secure the indictment of Sharkey
Gibbs, carp and the seconds. Those in
peril of prosecution, however, profess to
have no fear, and say the members of
the board of supervisors, who granted a
license for the contest, are as liable to
prosecution as they.
Billy Smith has sued Thomas Sharkey
for $500, which he claims is due him for
services rendered in assisting to train the
sailor for his recent battle with Fitzsim-
mons. Smith asserts that his services
were worth $1,000, but that Sharkey had
only paid him 500.
