Emissaries of the AutOnOmists
MysteriOusly Disappear.

Havana, via Key West, Fla, Dec. 2
The insurgent Generals Rabia and
Salvador Ries pillaged the village of
Guiza, about Is miles from Bayoma.
Their artillery destroyed several block
houses, killing the military commander
and one lieutenant.
The garrison, after having lost 50
soldiers, killed and wounded, surren-
dered. The insurgents plundered the
stores, securing rich booty, two months
supplies. a good quantity of ammuni-
ton and 200 rifles. The Spanish have
sent reinforcements to re-take the
town.
1t is persistently rumored that Insur-
gent Leader CuervO, who started for
the insurgent ranks to induce the fol-
lowers of General Arangueren to sur
render, has not returned, and it is be-
HeVed he has been aSsaSsinated. Al
though it is reported that the Insur-
gent Leader Pietter of Guines, Havana
province, and Leader Panchoperz of
Santi Spiritus, had already written to
the autOnOmist party, they have not
done so, in spite of the fact that ten
days have gone by.
A number of commissioners have
been sent out by the Spanish officers
to confer with the insurgents, but have
not returned. 1t is feared that they
have been killed.

JUDGE DAY TO QUIT.
Cannot Afford to be Assistant
Secretary of State and
Will Retire.

Chicago, Dec. IA special to the Times
Herald from Washington says: Judge
Day, assistant secretary of state, will
soon retire from public life to resume the
practice of law at Canton, o. This states
ment is made on authority.
Judge Day declined the attorney gener>
alship, nor does he expect to be made
secretary of state if Mr.. Sherman retires.
Judge Day wishes no further public em~
ployment. His only desire is to return
to his law office and devote himself to
the requirement of financial independ-
ence. When he left Canton his law prac-
tice was worth $4,000 a year, and as he
has a large family and only moderate re-
sources he deems it his duty to return
to his work instead of giving his ener-
gies to the government for a compensa-
ton not sufficient to pay his family e1>
penses in Washington. Judge Days de-
termination to retire is the cause of much
regret to the president and his associ-

FOR NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Big Chicago Concern Decides to Lo-
cate in Dayton, Ohio.

Dayton. O., Dec. 2.-The American EIec-
trio Vehicle company of Chicago today
decided to locate its new plant in Dayton,
a sufficient amount of local stock having
been subscribed to guarantee the enter
prise.
The company will devote its entire time
to the manufacture of horseless carriages
and expects to maintain the largest fac.
tory of this kind in the world. Plans for
factory buildings, etc, have not yet been
completed.
1t is thought that ultimately nearly ST.
100000 will be involved and that the en-
terprise may eclipse any now in existence
here. Dayton bankers and manufacture

A RELIC OF THE PAST.
Surgical Operations for the Cure of
piles and Rectal Diseases no
Longer NecessRry.
A Medical Discovery which Will
Change she Treatment Of
All Such Diseases.

1t has long been thought not only by
some physicians but by people in gen
eral that the common, painful and ex-
ceedingly annoying trouble, piles, was
practically incurable by any other
means than a surgical operation and
this belief has been the cause of years
Of needless suffering, because of the
natural dread of surgical operations.
There are many salves, ointments
and similar remedies on the market
which afford relief in cases of piles,
but the Pyramid Pile Cure is the only
preparation so far introduced that can
be reliably depended upon to cure to
stay cured, every form of itching,
bleeding or protruding piles.
Mrs. NJ. c. Hinckley of Sol Mississip-
pi street, Indianapolis, who was told
by her physicians that nothing but
surgical operations costing between
$500 and $500, could cure her as
she had suffered for Is years; yet even
in such a case as hers the Pyramid
Pile Cure accomplished complete
cure. She says: 4 knew an operation
would be death to me and tried the
Pyramid with very little hope and it is
not to be wondered at that am so en-
thusiastic in its praise

The Burlington's New Observation
Vestibuled Trains.

A very handsome set OF wide obser-
walton vestibuled trains are just out of
the Burlfngton's shops. They are avail
able for all classes of travel, and are
the only trains of their kind to St
Louis from the Missouri River. These
are the Denver, Missouri River and St
Louis limited trains. Every car has a
wide observation vestibule. The trains
are lighted throughout with Pintsch
gas and equipped also with standard
and compartment Sleepers
These trains are a duplicate of the
new s'Eli' to Chicago.
This achievement reflects the high
est credit upon the Burlington man
agement in Missouri, which is the first
to introduce into the service, from the
west to St. Louis, these solid, complete,
wide-vestibu1ed trains for all classes of
travel.

JUST A MINUTE,

thousands it has become a
necessity. With the majority
OF people the buying OF wheel means
careful economy to gather the money.
With all. the investment is worth being
careful about. Bicycles cost great deal.
They may cost too little. On the whole
the mistake is buying one that costs too
little. 1t may be guaranteed, but guar
antees are easily evaded, and after all
the wheel is intended for use and not
intended to lie in the repair shop.

The WESTFIELD is the best S75

same factory that makes the Cleveland
wheel, which is enough guarantee that
