"We think Hoods Sarsaparilla is

to go home, and loss of sleep, tired all

doses. 1 kept on taking it, and now I
can go into the quarry and do days

giving Hoods SaTsaparilla to our
youngest child, who was weak, lam

see a marked change. He ate better,
slept well, and in a little while was
like a new boy. He has continued to

THE CUBAN CAMPAIGN.
Gen. Pando Leaves Havana to
 Take Charge.
COMMISSIONED TO
Arrange Terms of Peace With the Insurgent Leaders if
 Possible.

HAVANA, Nov p. Gan. Psodo stsrt-
 ed from this oisy by SFain last Saturday
 according to official announcements, to
 take charge of the oampsign against
 the ilsurgenss. He was accompanied by his fail staff and was escorted by 6
 company of artillery. But i5 is stated
 on good authority that General Pando
 has been commissioned by General
 8lanoo, captain gsnersl, 50 enter into
 communication with the insurgent lead CTS with view of arranging for peace.
 Gsnsrsl Pando has bssn, and still is
 in negotiations with three leaders of the Cuban revolution snd has been en- dsavoFin2 to induce bhem to go to dif- tersut ineuFgens camps, there to use their influence to bring about peace. on the promise of Cuba bsipg accorded really an eutoaimous form of govern ment. Those three men were also of teFed money for themselves and were to have been furnished with large sums of money to distribute among their friends. But it is understood bhst they nave declined to become agents of Gan- erel Pando, alleging as their reason that they hevs no infusnos with insurgent leaders Of the present day and that they would be riekirg their lives if they ven tured into the3 insurgenb camps. h soma quarters it is believed this refusal to accept overtures of General PGndo is due to bhe fac5 that the insurgents are anticipating some strong step in their favor when the United States Congress mests. Is is generally admitted that General Paado is somewhat mortified st the non success of his plans up to the present and has informed the three ex-insprgsnt leaders rsfsFred to, that he doubts their sincerity and he indir- ectly gave them to understand that he was of tha opinion that they of Spain ovsr Oaba and have no desire to ssai=t kas Spanish in their efforts to bring about peaceful settlement Of the troubles. The Cubsns protested they were sincere and repeated the excuses they had already made for their non com plisncs with requests of the Spsn- ieh General. The latter, although somewhat disappointed, will continue his efforts to come to an understanding with the insurgents and military eu- thoFities believe the best way to do this is to inf1ict on the enemy signal defeat, which General Pan6o hopes to accomplish.

4 GOOD many impressions have been given out in the present contest for the Fsoeivership ot the Arizona canal that are mistakes to say the least about it. For instance that company is owing nc bank in the Territory cent; it is not owing anybody in the Territory anything outside ot current wages and 6 lumber bill of S7 900 with one of our lumber firms. Outside of this there is nothing stand ing against that firm heFe in Arizona.

Elizabeth Stuart Phelps Wards
 New Work Issued.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 20. - Elizabeth Stuart Phelps Wards new work. entitl- ed "Tne Story Of Jesus Christ; sn In- depreciation" and which has been looked forward to with great interest in literary and theological circles, is issued from the press today. Contrary to ez- psctssions it Is purely orthodox and de- void of nsationalism. It is a story of the Savior's life told in 8 new way. Were 1t not founded upon fact it might bs regarded ss 8 mystical dramatic human and superhuman point of view, and the entire story of the New Testa- mens is adhered to, save that the author rej ects the theory of the infiueno of 0 personal devil being responsible for the temptation of the mountain, and takes the view that this temptation was merely she workings of disordered brain growing out of weeks of fasting. Taken all in all, the work is remark able one end. while appealing to those who have previously been entranoed with the writings of this famous authoress, is likely at the same time to provoke no end of discussion among people of all denominations.

Ia sn address which they sand out they say in part:
 "So far ss the desires and intentions of the business men have materialized, there is nothing unreasonable in them. The cause espoused by the association is an altogether just and meritorloue one, end should succeed. Powerful allies are to be enlisted to this end. Boards of Trade at all the prominent commsrcial ceussrs throughout the country will be asked to lend hand in bringing about the results sought to be attained.
