TOOK HIS ADVICE.
A Veterinary Surgeon of Battle Creek
Tells About IL.

How many times in life few words of
good advice, coming from a friend one
can depend upon, will save us hours,
perhaps months of misery. The fol-
lowing which coming from Battle Creek
will interest our readers. DIR. Oliver
Guiteaux, Veterinary Surgeon of that
city, a well-known man there, as well
as in Kalamazoo and Marshall, speaks
of his experience with the little con-
queror and the result of few timely
words of advice He says:
Il was standing in Ambe-g & Muir
phys drug store in Battle Creek one
day when a friend of mine came in and
asked for box of kidney pills. After
he had made his purchase i said quietly
to him, You have made a mistake in
buying those His reply was, How is
that?' l said Doan's Kidney Pills are
worth all the others put together. As
he wanted my reasons for thinking SO
] told him that my kidneys had both
cred me for years, that | suffered from
backache until / could scarcely stand
it, that / had nearly every symptom to
be found where the kidneys are af-
fected, that / had used remedy after
remedy including box after box of the
one he just purchased, and that until l
used Doan's Kidney Pills l might have
taken as many spoonfuls of water in
fact, think some of them hurt me. A
couple of weeks after this / met him on
the street, when he said: Doc, Doan's
Kidney Pills are just as you repre-
scented. After using the box about which
we had conversation in Amberg &
Murphy's drug store / was as bad as
ever. then procured Doan's and stuck
to their treatment until they cured me. ;"

TO STOP SPANISH FLEET.
Probability of "A Big Naval Battle Near
Porto Rico.

Porto kico.
Later dispatches have been received
which confirm the report that the
Spanish feet is on its way across the
Atlantic, probably heading for Porto
Rico. If Commodore Schley's squadron
sails to meet them il will be in the
capacity of scouts to detect the APP
proach of the Spanish vessels. 1t is
understood that Admiral Simpsons
fleet will be formed into two divisions,
leaving slow vessels before Havana
and swiftest going with the flying
squadron. Admiral Sampson will com
Watson the second. The six armor-
clads, New York, Iowa, Indiana. Puri-
tan, Terror and Amphitrite, will be in
a central station on the Atlantic coast,
and will sail to meet the Spanish fleet.
The blockade would be conducted by
the remaining vessels, under Watson,
who has been ordered to confer with
Sampson. The movement of the
armored ships northward will necessi-
tate the reinforcement of the blockad-
ing squadron with such auxiliary cruis-
ers and gunboats as can be spared. AS
there will be lot of heavy vessels
close at hand, these members of the
mosquito fleet can we'll be spared from
patrol duty. With one battleship, a
couple of monitors and the auxiliary
cruisers the blockade of Cuba can be
maintained. The ships thus relieved
will then join the flying squadron and
increase its efficiency.
If it is evident that the Spanish fleet
is coming in force to Porto Rico the
flying squadron will reinforce Rear
Admiral Simpsons fleet, and battle
will be given the enemy in Cuban wa
tiers without raising the blockade. If
the Spaniards cross the Atlantic on a
more northerly parallel, Rear Admiral
SIMPSONS big ships will hurry north
ward and join the flying squadron to
meet them. If the enemy divides his
feet into two squadrons, we will do
likewise, or if time offers meet his
squadrons in detail. When the fleets
are divided a commander will be Sc
lected for each of them, with Rear Adj
miral Sampson in supreme command.

Martial Law In Madrid.

Surprise and disappointment has
been caused at Madrid by the destruc-
ton done by the American fleet as it
had been officially stated that the
authorities at Manila had received tor
pedoes and heavy guns to strengthen
the coast defense. Owing to the ex-
cited condition of the populace martial
law has been proclaimed at Madrid
Immediately after the declaration
large numbers of the police and
civilian guards occupied the principal
streets and the whole garrison of troops
were placed on waiting orders.
The proclamation of martial law is due
to the attitude of certain political par
ties, since the news from Manila.
Madrid: 1t is very noticeable, es-
pecially among politicians, that there
is strong hope o: an Intervention by
continental powers, especially Germany
and Russia.
Vienna: 1t is positively denied in
well informed circles that the powers
will intervene at the present juncture
The American liner Paris recently
purchased as an auxiliary cruiser, and
which it was feared had been captured
by the Spanish has been sighted east
of Fire Island, New York.
A special from Kingston, Jamaica,
says that the u. $. torpedo boat Cush-
ing and the Spanish gunboat Lijera
have had fight, off Cardenas. The
Cushing fred IL times and the Spaniard
answered shot for shot. The Ameri-
can boat drew off apparently damaged
but not disabled. Several shots took
effect on the Lijera, but apparently
did little damage beyond carrying
away the funnel. None Of the crews
were injured.
The navy department has ceased the
purchase of ships, owing to the exhaus-
ton of the $50, 600, 900 war fund. More
auxiliary vessels are needed, however.
