RELATIONS WITH THE CUBANs.
Junta in This Country Busy Trying to
Make Them AmicabIe.

Washington, Aug. 25.-The representa-
tives of the Cubans in the United States
are still making every effort to secure
the disbandment OF the Cuban forces
and acquiescence in the policy of the
United States in Cuba. Letters are be-
ing sent and arguments made to the
Cuban leaders pointing out that the in
terests of the Cubans lie in cooperation
with the United States authorities.
Little or no information has been re-
ceived as to what effect these repre-
sentations will have upon the leaders
in Cuba, but it Is believed that anlicable
relations can be brought about when
the Cubans are persuaded that il is to
their interest to accept the situation as
the protocol leaves it.
Negotiations have been opened
through diplomatic channels by which
IL is expected that the Spanish govern
ties here in the removal of the mines
the military commission assemblies
there, the naval authorities believing
this to be proper precaution before
any of our naval ships enter the harbor
with the commissioners. The sus-
question was made through the state
department. and has been forwarded to
the Spanish government through the
French embassy Inere IS little doubt
the matter will be arranged.

war. Lieutenant General Correa, when

For some time'he had picked up pre-
carious livelihood by doing "Odd jobs, "
including such prosaic occupations as

engaged by gentleman TO carry to the

The future draJnatist took his friend
TO his dwelling miserable room in an
attic in the poorest quarter of the town
Upon the table lay scattered heaps of
manuscripts-Jean's incursions in the
realms of poetry when the more prosaic
duties of the day were over. Looking
through them, his friend was astounded
at their quality. why do you carry
trunks and blacken boots when you can
do work like this:" he asked Richepin

MINE SITUATION AT PANA.
New Negro Miners Being Induced by the
Strikers Not to Go to Work.


Springfield, Ills, Aug. Ex-Governor
Tanner received a message yesterday
morning at 1920 from Ira Coburn. sher-
if at Pana. his, stating that $50 i'm
ported negro miners had arrived to go
to work in the mines there. and that Sc
rious trouble was anticipated at any
moment. Yesterday morning David
Ross, secretary of the state board Of
labor. telegraphed to Nelson Rutledge,
the state mine inspector of the Fifth
district, residing at Alton. to proceed
to Pana Immediately and ascertain by
personal examination if the imported
negro miners have had two years ex-
perience. as required by law. Ross
says that until they have had that ex-
peTience they cannot work in the state.
Late yesterday afternoon union min
ers had succeeded in inducing num-
ber of Alabama negroes to leave the
Springside mining camp and others
were deserted. Several negroes met in
session with the union miners at their
hall and stated publicly that they had
been misled by Operators Overholt and
Pohl. An interview with the negroes
developed that there are many union
labor men among them. and they were
induced to go TO Pana under the state
ment that they We're to be taken to

WHO KNOWS w. J. GUYMoRE?
Up Goes a Thousand Hands at Once at
This Question.

This Question.
Every miner in the state knows Mr.
GuymOre, who has been secretary for
the United Mine Workers of the state
for five years. He snow an honorary
member of the organization, but they
all know him still as strong and
powerful member.
1t is not necessary for me to go on
and tell you what YOU all know so well,
but there is one thing l want to tell
YOU which you may not know but
should.
1t is about Morrow's Kid-ne-oids.
Mr.. Guymore has used them and he
has highly praised them to us, and
says he thinks public statement
would help many a miner, or in fact
any one who has bad kidneys to use
them.
He wants to be of as much service
to the public as he can, so here is
what he says:
Il have been Il sufferer more or less
for years with my kidneys. Some
times they would be very bad and |
suffered great deal. l had severe
pain across my back in the region of
my kidneys which was always worse
when | stopped over, so bad sometimes
| could scarcely straighten up again.
The poison from the trouble in the
blood effected the nerves and l grew
nervous. Sometimes | could not
sleep at night for hours if L woke up.
You can see that the natural result
would be broken down system, which
| was rapidly getting. My appetite
failed me and whatever ate had to
force down. 1 read such wonderful
things about Morrow's Kid-ne-oids
that thought it would do no harm to
try them. 1 am glad 1 did for they
proved to be the very remedy l re-
quired. l got mine at II. n. Dodd's
drug store and took them according to
directions. Today l am entirely cured
of all the backache, nervousness and
everything arising from this trouble.
/ consider them n safe, sure. quick and
economical treatment and that they
effect a permanent cure"
