table water famine exists in manv
parts of Crawford county. No rain Of
any consequence has fallen for six
weeks, and there is much suffering in
the country and in smaller towns on ac-

sickness prevails in the mining camps,
the only water supply at these
places being cisterns, the water in
them being exhausted or so filthy it
cannot be used. At Litchfeld there
are seven members of one family sick
with typhoid fever. The miners Of
Kirkwood are petitioning the owners
of the mines to dig wells so that re-
liable supply of water can be obtained
for the future.

YOUNG MEN
Should Read and Reflect Upon the Fol
lowing Truthful pen Picture.

The following communication signed
~" in this mornings Times, is so
slrikir ely true that we reproduce it:
Where can l find steady and re-
liable young man to take place in my
store?" is question that is bein I.
asked every day by bu>in IS men IN all
ii les. Reliable, indus .rlous, ste ady,
young men. with no bad hab Is, men
whom an employer knows he can trus :,
are in demand everywhere AID COM
maud premium such young men a.
WAYS find situation and keep it, and
firmly believe that the demand for
them is greater and the supply smalie'
than ever before in this cOun ry. L
have heard young men with cigars be-
tween their teeth and their bre alta
smelling of VIII sky, staniilg On The
street corners, PIE ending TO want a
situation aud complaining becau e
business men were employing young
ladies as clerks, stenog aphers, ETC.,
and lha5 they wee being Gro Sded out
of chance TO make a living.
Business men Lave be- compete d
to em ploy young ladies because young
men worth employing are scarce. L
just want to contidentially say to these
young men and boys who are growi g
up that they are being careful Y watch
ed every day by employ ers and If they
low by their conduct that they are
worthy of trust they will Lot long be
out of employment.
There is not boy of fifteen or SIX
teen in this town, or any other, whose
measu has no. been tskt by the
business men and they know whether
he is such a young man or boy as they
would be will ng tt t. u,t. The boy Or
young man een iiling bis time away
on tue streets, smoking Gig arettes,
loafing around the joints and keeping
lat hours without good reason, is well
known to all our business men and is
likely to remain idle.
Young man, you are wonderfully
mistaken if you think that your habits
are not noticed. Every shrewd BUSH
ness man is watching you. H. is al
ways on the lookout for young msn CT
the right material and he has had his
eye on you for years. The young man
OF today who cannot find steady en-
ployment at fair salary with good
chances of promotion, has no one to
blame but himself for there is won
derful scarcity of young men worth en-
ploying. Any boy who attends faith
fully to his studies in school, keeps out
of bad company and is industrious and
well behaved will find good sit Ia
ton avs iting him just as soon as he is
ready to axe it, for our business men
know him. 1t is just so everywhere,
and there never was in this country
batter oppOr tub tiles for young men of
the right stamp than there are today.

Gomez to Mckinley.

The letter from Gen. Gomez to

that autonomy or any other form of

afOrce that was never before as well
drilled, so perfectly equipped and so
mum erous, every advice from Gomez
confirms the previous information that
very soon the city of Havana will be
attacked. To show how imminent this
movement is it is motto that the ex-

at any previous time, and it is believed
the people leaving there, who are
mostly women, children and non COM

to bring 1000, 900 immigrants to Mex
