- Assuming Large Proportions In the CITY
OF Havana-Insuficient Food Among the
Poorer Glasses Causes Intestinal Diseases
NEW YORK, Oct. ga special from
Washington says: Only an inkling Of
the revolving horrors of starvation and
desolation prevalent throughout the
island of Cuba has as yet reached this
country.
For many months no adequate knowl-
edge of the conditions of the interior
and small towns has been available.
But from the chief city of Havana,
where the sufferings must be least
compared with other portions, almost
Incredible accounts of the barbarous
results of SPANS misrule continue to
multiply in official records.
Monday an official statement was de-
livered to the president. which shocked
him beyond measure.
1t was the regular weekly report Of
DIR. w. f. Drummer, sanitary inspector
of the United States marine hospital
service at Havana. 1t is as follows:
1.-The death rate is assuming alarm
ing proportions in this city, and the
deaths from intestinal diseases. due to
insufficient, food among the poorer
classes amounts to- about two fifths of
the total deaths. An inspection of a
pest hole known as Lo Fosos was made
by me on Thursday, October IA.
''This place has been set aside for the
country people sent to Havana Los
Fosos consists of a large wooden build
ing about $50 feet in length and so feet
in width. The building is situated in
an Enclosure, which is used for the
storing of carts of the municipality.
''There were 500 persons found in
and around this building, and of that
number over 200 were found lying on
the floor sick and dying. L saw
no child under ten years who
could be considered in good
health. They were invariably suffer-
ing from some form of dysentery.
The emaciation of their bodies was
startling. This place is not hos
pital, but simply place of residence
for these people, but a conservative
estimate of the death rate there would
be about ten per day. The number is
recruited by fresh accessions from the
country.

Fifty-four Persons Killed.

ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 81. = While
service was in progress in the village
church at Khnieleff, on the western
coast of the Crimea, an alarm of fire
was raised. A panic ensued in the
crowded congregation, and the efforts
Of the officiating priests to calm the
tumult were absolutely unavailing. In
the stampede for the exits 81 persons
were killed by suffocation or being
trampled, and so others were seriously
injured.

Menstrual IRREGULARITIES.

Puberty is the period when menstruation
Is established. It is the time when the girl
becomes woman, and also the time from
which many female diseases date. The
menstrual flow usually continues from three
TO six days and comes on about every
twenty-ei days The quantity exUded
varies from two to eight ounces, but the
amount consistent with the health of one
person may be excessive and weakening in
another. The function is regarded as being
regular when its effect upon the system is
favorable. The departures from healthy
menStruatiOn are numerous and should be
corrected by using DR.. Simmons SGuaw

Once upon a time two bears lived to
gether in a hollow tree. 1t was long
time before any white men came to this
country, and the bears were q great and
powerful race. One Of these bears was
handsome fellow. and he liked to go
visiting and to lie In the sun and to eat
dinner regularly. The other bear was
quiet fellow. and most Of his friends
said that he was very stupid. Every
day while his brother lolled comforta-
bly, under a gooseberry bush he would
go out into the forest and find a huge
oak. Then he would stand Hp on his
hind legs and scratch the rough bark
with his claws until they were as sharp
as needles. 1t was hard work. and the
other bear laughed at him for doing 1t.
whats the use Of sharpening your
claws?" he asked. Games plenty" and
then he would go back to sheep again.
That winter wGs long and cold, and
when the two bears came out Of the
hollow tree in the spring they were
both thin and hungry and cross. The
handsome fellow went down to the
creek and tried to catch some fish for
dinner, but the ice was SO thick and
slippery that his dull claws made no
impression on 1t. A little later his broth
er came down and dug hole near tine
waterfall and caught great many fish
and ate them The handsome bear, who
was both cross and hungry, began to
grumble.
