Violent Discussions Among the Boys
Who Built Such High Hopes.
San Francisco. June S.-All is not
harmonious in the Brotherhood of
South Sea colonists that left this port
on the brig Percy Edwards about three
months ago in search of a site for a
colony on one of the islands of the
South Pacific ocean. One of the mem
bers of the colony in letter, posted at
Suva, the CAPITAL of the Fiji islands,
says that Captain Peterson, the sailing
master of the vessel had assumed the
power of a car. The governor of the
Fiji islands had not given the colonists
much encoura cement in their plan to
settle in the South Seas and they were
refused landing on any of the Islands
of the Fiji group.
The writer said that the vessel was
preparing to sail for the Samoan group
and if no more encouragement was
given them there. an attempt would be
made to land on the Solomons. Should
they be ordered away from there the
vessel would be headed for home.

pear so generally at this season, make
the use of that grand Spring Medi-
cine. Hoods Sarsaparilla, necessity.
The accumulated impurities in the
blood cause very different symptoms
with some people. The kidneys,
liver and bowels are overmatched in
their efforts to relieve the clogged
system. Dizzy headaches, bilious
attacks, failure of appetite, coated
tongue, lame back, indigestion and
that tired feeling are some results.
From the same cause may also come
scrofula, neuralgia, sciatica OF rheu-
matism.
All these troubles and more may prop
erly be called "Spring Humors,"
and just as there is one cause, cure
is found in just one remedy, and
that is Hoods Sarsaparilla.
Hoods Sarsaparilla purifes the impure
blood, enriches blood which is weak
and thin, vitalizes blood which lacks
vitality. Thus it reaches every part
of the human system.

vent or cure Spring Humors, take

sUFFERINGs AT TIE FRONT
Terrible Scenes That Followed the Dat:ls
of Cold Harbor.

Terrible Scenes That Followed the Cat.le
of Cold Harbor.
General Horace Porter, in 'sCam-
paigning With Grant, - in The Century,
telling Of the the battle of Cold Har-
Dor, says:
The general in chief realized that he
was in a sw~mpy and sickly portion of
the country The malaria was highly
productive of disease, and the Chicka-
hominy fever was dreaded by ali the
troops who had a recollection Of its
ravages when they campaigned in that
section Of the country two years before.
The operations had been so active that
precautions against sickness had neces-
sarily been much neglected, and the
general was anxious, while giving the
men some rest, to improve the sanitary
conditions. By dint of extraordinary
exertions the camps were we'll policed
and large quantities of fresh vegetables
were brought forward and distributed.
Cattle were received in much better
condition than those which had made
long marches and had furnished beef
which was far from being wholesome.
Greater attention was demanded in the
cooking of the food and the procuring
of better water. Dead animals and offal
were buried, and more stringent sani-
tary regulations were enforced through
out the entire command.
What was most distressing at this
time was the condition of affairs at the
extreme front No one who did not wit
ness the sights Oh those portions Of the
line where the opposing troops We're in
exceptionally close contact can form an
idea Of the suferings experienced. Staff
officers used to work their way en- foot
daily to the advanced points, SO as to
be able to report with accuracy these
narrowing scenes. Some Of the sights
were not unlike those Of the 'blocdy
angle" at Spottsylvaria. Between tie
lines where the heavy assaults had been
made there was in some places dis
tance Of 80 CT 40 yards completely COW
cred by the dead and wounded Of both
SIDES The bodies of dead We're fostering
in the sun, while tie wounded We're dy-
ing a tortu1ing death frcm starvation,
thirst and less Of blood. IN scme places
the stencil became sickening. Every at
tempt to make change in the picket
line brought On heavy firing, as both
sides had become nervcus from long
watchfulness, and the slightest move
ment cn either frert led to the belief
that it was the beginning Of an assault.
In the night there was often heavy ar
tillery firing, sometimes accompanied by
musketry, with view to lettering the
other side from attacking, or cccasic@ed
by false rI,nors, IF an attempt to as
sault. The ncn On tie advanced lines
had to lie clcse to the ground i'll narrow
trenches. With little water for drinking
purposes except that obtained from sur
face drainage. They were subjected to
the broiling beat ty day and the chill
ing winds aEd fcss at right and had to
eat the raticns that cculd be got to them
under the greatest imaginable discem-
fort.

Key West, Fla June 25.-Che
crew and the Cubans who were on
board the Dauntless. and who were
yesterday arrested, were to day dis
charged by United States Comm!s
sioner Julius Otto, on the ground
that there was no evidence to show
that they were a military organize
tion or intended to commit acts hostile
to Spain The principal evidence
offered by the prosecution consisted
in the finding of about 600 cases OF
arms and ammunition on board the
Daunt!ess while she lay anchored of
Indian Key waiting to be towed by
the cruiser Wilmington to Jackeon,
vile. There were also other cir
cums.ances regarded as suspicious
The captain of the Dauntless. in
reply to the questions Of the district
attorney, declared that he took the
arms ON board from schooner al
