MACEo STILL LIVES.
Wife of Col. Mirabe1 says She Nursed Him
in Cuban Hospital.

Key West, Fla, Dec. 81 The wife
of the insurgent colonel, Mirabel, ar
rived here on the steamer Olivette from
Havana last night en- route to Tampa.
She claims to have come direct from
the camp of the insurgents, and says
she had been attending on Antonio
Maceo. She declares that the insur-
gent leader is not dead, but that he
was betrayed and shot in the face by
Dr. Zertucha, the bullet seriously
wounding him. Sonora Mirabel adds
that four doctors are in constant at
tendance on Maceo, and that they are
now satisfied that he will recover, but
that it will be some time before he will
be able to again assume command OF
his forces.
New York, Dec. 81, via Key West
The startling information has reached
here by steamer that Maceo is alive. 1t
was received by waiting Cubans on the
wharf with joy, and is given some ere
dence. The first rumors of the Cuban
generals death, which were received
with incredulity, are, it is said, being
dissipated by information reaching
Havana daily giving accurate details.
1t is now stated that when Maceo fell
from his horse his followers thought
him dead, but afterward found that he
was still alive, but pretended he was
dead in order to carry his body off with
safety. Under a strong escort, it is
alleged, he was carried to Siguanea
hospital, where, under the skillful
treatment of Drs. Fermin Valdez Dom
inguez and Pancho Dominguez, he is
recuperating. The acute period, it is
said, has now passed, as he had only
one serious wound in the stomach.
Further details of the singular allega-
tions say that the other wounds in his
jaw and his back caused only slight
injury, as no bones were fractured. It
was feared that peritonitis might set in,
but he escaped this. 1t is said that
Maceo's first words when he was able
to speak were to order Zertucha's cap
ture, but he had already fed to the
Spanish lines. Zertucha, it is said,
wrote the paper found on young
Gomez's body. Gomez was killed by a
-bayonet thrust, and he did not stab
himself, as the Spanish say.

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian tube. When this
tube gets infamed you have rumb-
ling sound of imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the inhamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever: nine
cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for
any case of Deafness caused by catarrh
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Sci d for circulars, free.

Oranges Will Be Scarce.

Oranges will be scarce, SO far as the
usual sources of supply in this country
are concerned. The Florida crop is
small, and will cut no figure in the
west, as the entire crop of only 100000
boxes has all been sold in New York.
The California crop is especially fine,
but will not be on the market for
for time. Mexican oranges advanced
so cents last week. The entire crop
only amounts to 600 cars, of which 400
have already been shipped across the
American border. The orange is
rather a scarce article in Xenosha at
present, and the price is high.

RACINE LIQUOR is BAD.
Michael McGivern Takes Some of 1t and
Gets Crazy Drunk.
The Racine Journal says:


The Racine journal says:
/" Michael McGivern, brother of
Alderman McGivern of Kenosha, ar
rived in the city yesterday and pro-
ceeded to celebrate by taking on big
load of liquor. During the day he was
in several places and acted ugly and
was ordered out. Night found him on
the Bowery, near Racine junction and
he was crazy drunk and caused consid-
cradle excitement. About o'clock he
appeared at the Hurlbut company
shops and proceeded to divest him
self of his clothing, telling people he
was too hot to wear clothes. Pealing
off his coat, hat and vest, he threw
them down and started on a wild run
about the vicinity. Soon a report
reached the police Office that an insane
man was roaming about the Bowery;
that he was dangerous and should be
looked after.
-" Policeman Wood was in the vicinity
and chased about after the man and
ascertained that he had jumped on
Washington avenue street car and was
bound down to the city. Officer John
Ollerich laid for the car and found the
man and arrested him and locked him
in Jail. This morning the gentleman
had cooled down and is wondering how
it all happened.
" A strong letter of recommendation
signed by Mayor Farr, of Kenosha,
was found among the effects of the
man who tells the police his name is
Murphy, but the rec commend is for
Michael McGivern. The man was
sent to jail for five days.

Capt. r. Symmonds came in this
morning to present this office with an
elegant new map of Cuba, which has
just been published by his son-in-law,
James Mcconnell, of 1887 Arch street,

every foot of the land. 1t is declared
to be very accurate one. 1t is GER

island.

Let carking care and sorrow,
Give way to joy and song;
Hand in hand together
All along the line,
Send ringing to the rafters,

Welcome to the New Year

Put all old scores behind US
And enmity forget;
Pass again the loving cup
Drink deep the sparkling wine
And let's be friends together
For the sake of Aud Lang Syne.

The Milwaukee Sentinel contains an

Our friend of the Gazette says in an
editorial Wednesday evening that we
claimed the distinction of Robinson
Crusoe's island for Trinidad. If Bro
Rowe will read our comments little
more carefully he will note that what
we did say was that the book expressly
states that the island in question was
near Trinidad, and near the OrinocO
river. That is all the information con-
corning it's location ever vouchsafed by
Mr.. DeFoe.
If you are gloomy and respondent
because you are unable to give gifts on
the new year, here are few that are
in the power of all: If you are
sad, present yourself with smile; if
you are vexed with cares and trouble,
bundle them off to the old year, and
let him take them away; give heart
of hope to the new year; give praise for
the good things you see in the people
you meet, give patience for the faults
of your friends.
Considerable trouble has been caused
on the Balm farm just on the outskilt is
of the city, by breaking into the barn,
stealing hay and doing other damage.
The fellows were observed at their
tricks some time ago, and efforts were
made to stop them. Various means
were adopted for closing the barn doors
so securely as to keep them out.
Every place affording access to the
barns was tightly nailed, and beams
placed across them. But the boys
broke in in spite of all efforts made to
keep them out, and now the matter
has been brought before the police.
The names of the parties are known,
and If any further trouble is given
action will be taken that will un-
doubtedly end the fun permanently.
The dense fog that has overhung
the city all day was the cause of what
might have been serious accident
this afternoon. A large bay horse,
ridden by a young fellow, was going
down Main street at a pretty good rate
when suddenly it came upon carriage
being rapidly driven emerging from
the fog. The driver of tie carriage
tried to turn out quickly for the eques-
trian and in so doing struck another
carriage on the opposite side. The
collision frightened both horses some
what and for a time, owing to the
density of the mist and the number of
vehicles at that moment on the street,
it looked as if series of accidents
might follow. But both drivers proved
good horsemen and trouble was FORUM
ately averted. The affair contains a
moral, however, and it is, don't drive
fast on Main street, especially on dark
days.

THE OPENING NEW YEAR.
The weather Looks Like a Hard Winter
Ahead.

New Years day came in with a
dreadful dampness, mud and unseason-
able warmth. Overcoats, wraps, furs
and rugs were abandoned, furnaces
and stoves allowed to cool and ice
cream and fans came in quite handy.
The weather man says Friday was the
warmest New Years day since 1876.
The thermometer ranged from Is to
60. According to Indian signs we may
look for a hard winter ahead. Friday
night the fog and rain had produced
pavements which we're dangerously
slippery.
