GENERAL CASTILLO BETRAYED.
Captured by the Spaniards i'm Cuba
and Shot.

New York, Oct pa dispatch to the
Herald from Havana says: "The outgo-
ing authorities have struck a heavy blow
at autonomy by permitting Ito use pre-
judiced word) the killing of General Cas-
tillo. General Castillo was not killed in
open fight; he was betrayed by Cuban
guard and captured by the Spaniards last
Friday and shot on Monday morning. 1t
was more satisfactory to shoot him than
to treat him as a prisoner of war. Cas-
tillo commanded Havana province and
was beloved as an able and brave general
by every Cuban under arms. His killing
will arouse desire for revenge that at
the present juncture will tend to prevent
acceptance of autonomy. With an escort
of seven men Castillo was lying ill with
fever in a secluded spot when his guide
BETRAYED him. The exhibition of his body
has aroused Indignation even among Gen
eral Weyler's officers. Side by side with
him in the morgue was the body of a man
who starved to death. The two presented
plain illustration of General Weyler's
methods of conducting this war. A mani
festo will be circulated and signed by
President Capote and Generals Gomez
and Garcia, calling upon all Cubans not to

one mile east of Katka. The victims had
been drilling rock on the mountain side

Proclamation.


Washington, Oct. 80. - President Nc
kinley has issued his first Thanksgiving
day proclamation, as follows:
I'm remembrance of Gods goodness to
us in the past year, which has been so
abundant, let us offer up to Him our
thanksgiving and pay our vows unto the
Most High. Under His watchful Provi-
dence industry has prospered, the condi-
tons of labor have been improved, the
rewards of the husbandmen have been
Increased and the comforts of our homes
multiplied. His mighty hand has pre-
served peace and protected the nation.
Respect of law and order has strengthen
ed, love of free institutions cherished, and
all sections of our beloved country
brought into closer bonds of fraternal re-
gard and generous cooperation.
"For these great benefits it is our duty
to praise the Lord in spirit of humility
and gatitude, and to offer up to Him our
most earnest supplications. That we may
acknowledge our obligations as people
to Him who has SO graciously granted us
the blessings of free government and ma
terial prosperity, /, William Mckinley,
president of the United States, do hereby
designate and set apart Thursday, the
25th day of November, for national
thanksgiving and prayer, which all of the
people are invited to observe with appro-
pirate religious services in their respec-
tive places of worship.
Son this day of rejoicing and domestic
reunion let our prayers ascend to the
giver of every good and perfect gift, for
the continuance of His love and favor to
us, that our hearts may be filled with
charity and good will and that we may
be ever worthy of his beneficent concern
in witness whereof | have hereunto set
my hand and caused the great seal of the
United States to be affixed.
"Done at the city of Washington this
10Th day of October, the year of our Lord
1897, and of the independence of the
United States the l20th.

THEY ANNOY THE BRITISH CAMPS
indian Tribesmen Excel in Guerrilla
Warfare.

Simla, Oct. Pit is estimated that
the tribesmen have 10000 men at Sem
phaga pass, where they are busy making
rifle pits in the Sugars and strengthening
their defenses. 1t is generally believed,
however, that it will be possible to turn
the position by either flank, though hard
fighting is possibly in store.
Meanwhile it is bad news that the
tribesmen have begun to operate on the
British lines of communication. The fear
is that, finding this the most successful
means of delaying the British advance
they will detach still larger bodies to at
tack the British conveys and cut up the
escorts.
The conference of insurgent tribesmen
is increasing and they are offering de
termined front in all directions. The Brit
ish officers say the tribesmen excel il
guerrilla warfare, and are wonderful Skin
mishers. The enemy is fully supplied
with ammunition, and large reinforce
ments are Joining the insurgent camps.

WHY SO MANY REGULAR
PHYSICIANS FAIL
TO Cure Female Ills-Some True
Reasons Why Mrs. Pinkham
Is More Successful Than
the Family Doctors.

A woman is sick; some disease pecu.
liar to her sex is fast developing i'll her
system. She goes to her family physi-
can end tells him a story, but not the
whole story.
She holds something back, loses her
mead, becomes agitated, forgets what
sne wants to say, and finally conceals
what she ought to have told, and thus
completely mystifies the doctor.
Is 1t any wonder, therefore, that the
doctor fails to cure the disease? Still,
we cannot blame the woman, for it is
very embarrassing to detail some OF
.hesymptoms of her suffering, even to
her family physician.
IL was for this reason that years
ago Mrs. Pinkham, ut Lynn, Mass,
determined to step in and help her
sex: Having had considerable ex-
perience in treating female ills with
uer vegetable Compound, she encour-
aged the women of America to write
W her for advice in regard to their
so'npiaints, and, being woman, 1t
was easy for her ailing sisters to pour
.n'o her ears every detail of their suf-
'eFlng. Over one hundred thousand
~ohen were successfully treated by
@rS' Pinkham last year. Such are the
grand results of her experience.

Freight Trains Wrecked on the

Great Falls, Mont, Oct. 2S. = There
were meager reports here Wednesday OF
a freight wreck 300 miles east on the line
of the Great Northern road, but officials
were reticent, and not until the west
bound passenger train arrived today and
from special dispatches from points along
the line, was it known that a terrific col
lision occurred Tuesday two miles east
of Hinsdale, Valley county, between an
east-bound stock train and double-head-
er freight, in a deep cut just west OF
sharp curve. All three engines went
crashing into an embankment and are
tipped and in such bad shape that it
will not pay to dig them out of the de-
bris. Twenty cars and contents were
burned. Both conductors claim each was
running on the others time. Engineer
Henry Neate of the stock train was crush
ed OF death under his engine, and three
cars of copper matte, so that the remains
were not recovered for 70 hours.

CROP IS SHORT IN AUSTRIA
AMERICAN WHEAT IN DEMAND
Importation of Four Hundred Car
loads of American Wheat Made as
Early ms August-Production Six
ty Million Bush. Under Last Year.

Washington, Nov. SECRETARY Wilson
of the department of agriculture, has just
issued a report prepared under his direc
ton by Frank I'll. Hitchcock, chief of the
section of foreign markets, that gives
some interesting facts relative to the
present wheat shortage in Austria Hum
gary, and the consequent importation into
that country of American grain.
According to the United States consul
at Reichenbau, Austria, an importation
of 400 carloads of American wheat was
made as early as August, coming by the
way of Hamburg. Other importations
were reported, among them one of $4,000
bushels of red winter No. 2, and Kansas
wheat, purchased through the Vienna pro-
duce exchange After recounting these
unusual importations of the present sea-
son, the bulletin presents review of the
grain situation in Austria Hungary dur
ing the past 10 years.
The crop of the present season is re-
markably small If the official estimates
quoted are fulfilled the combined wheat
production of Austria and Hungary will
| amount to little more than l30,000,0 900
bushels, or 6O,O00,0 900 bushels short of the
crop harvested in 1896. Aside from the
abnormal conditions of the present year,
annual statistics of production, importa-
ton and expectation during the decade
make it apparent that a marked change
has occurred in the last few years as re
CARDS the grain situation in Austria Hun
gary.
The tendency of the various cereals has
been toward larger home consumption
of the national product and consequent
reduction of the surplus available for ship
ment to other lands.
Most of the cereals are now brought
into the country in larger quantities thar
are exported Barley is the only grain o
which any considerable amount continues
to be shipped abroad.
In respect to other cereals the status o
the monarchy is apparently that of transi
ton from an exporting into an importing
country. While it is hardly to be expect
ed that these conditions will to any ex
tent create an enlarged demand for Amer
lean cereals, the facts set forth are Ger
tainly of interest, as indicating the les
sened importance of Austria Hungar,
among the countries which the Unite,
States is obliged to compete with in tn
grain markets of the world. The flou
trade with Brazil is large and increasing
reaching llO994 barrels per annum dur
ing lS9l-05. This increasing hold upol
