Great Demonstration by Soldiers
as Hobson Marched Through

WASHINGTON, July Sit is learned
from a high source that the war cor.
ference was held for the purpose Of
going over the situation at Santiago,
and that no determination to rush an
attack on the city was reached. 1t is
stated that the administration is rea.
sonably we'll satisfied with the present
situation, and has no desire to precipi.
tate affairs there at the costly sacrifice
o flives or ships. 1t is confidently BE-
lieved that General Linares Will Sur:
render when be learns the American
army is to be reinforced by $4,000 or
20, 900 men. No information on this
subject has been received from any
quarter, but the officials believe that
the Spanish general will see the utter
hopelessness of the situation and yield
to the inevitable. If, however, the
Spaniards persist in needlessly sacri.
fclng the lives Of their own men and
ours, all the strength Of the army and
navy will be hurled against them with
a view to putting an end to the strug.
gle in the shortest possible time. The
question Of directing General Miles to
take command Of the Porto Rican ex.
petition vas not brought up in the
conference, nor were any matters dis.
cussed that did not directly pertain to
operations in front of Santiago.

How much property a man will leave
when he dies depends largely upon his
health. The man who suffers from i'll
health stands little show Of being a sue
cessful business man. The man who comes
to his desk III the morning with a head
ache, who suffers all day from dizziness and
drowsiness, who goes to his meals without
an appetite and losses restlessly through
the night without sleep, is not likely to
leave a competence for his widow and or
phans. Success is even more dependent
upon health than upon ability,
Few men realize these truths. They
think that everything can be accomplished
by work, and that health is a secondary
consideration. Work is useless unless it is
good work, and good work is never done
save by a thoroughly healthy man. DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is the
best of all health restorers and health pre-
servers. 1t makes the stomach strong and
active. 1t sends a man to his meals thor
oughly hungry every time. 1t facilitates
the flow Of digestive juices and makes as
similation perfect. 1t iuvigorates the liver.
1t puriies the blood and fills it with the
life-giving elements of the food. 1t is the
great blood-flaker and ~flesh-builder. 1t
tears down inert, half dead tissues and
builds new, firm, muscular flesh. 1t does
not build tabby fat like cod liver oil and
does not make people more corpulent.
Mr.. John Brooks, of Bovlston, Mass. writes: ~
write to tell YOU Of the great benefit ! have re-
ceived from d.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry I was taken with a bad cold which settled
on my lungs, The doctors said I was in con-
sumption and could not get we'll. | took Cod
Liver Oil and 1t did me no good. After taking
it four months I heard Of your Golden Medical
Discovery and it saved my life"

EXCHANGE Of H0BSON.
Great Demonstration as They Were Es.
corted Through the American
Lines.

OF Juragua, July 6, by the .Associ.

Kingston, Jamaica, July 5. Assistant
Naval Constructor Richmond P. Hob.
son Of the flagship New York, and the
seven Gamer who with him sailed the
collier Merrimac into the channel OF
the harbor of Santiago de Cuba, on
June 3 last, and sunk her there, were
surrendered by the Spanish military
authorities today in exchange for pris.
oners captured by the American forces.
Hobson and his men were escorted
through the American lines by Captain
Chadwick Of the New York, who was
awaiting them. Every step of their
journey was marked by the widest
demonstrations on the part Of the
American soldiers, who threw aside all
semblance Of order, scrambled out of
the entertainments, knocking over tent
guys and other other camp parapher.
MALTA, in their eagerness to see the re.
turning heroes, and sent up cheer after
cheer for the men who had passed
safely through the jaws Of death to
serve their country.
The same scenes Of enthusiasm were
repeated upon the arrival OF the men
at the hospital station, and at our base
at Juragua. Hobson, who reached
there in advance Of his companions
was taken on board the New York i'm.
m~ediately. The fagship's decks were
lined with officers and men, and as
Hobson clambered up her side and
stepped on board his vessel, the harbor
rang with the shouts and cheers of his
comrades, which were reechoed by the
crews Of a dozen transports lying near
by. Hobson had little TO say in regard
to MS experiences, except that he and
his comfauions had been we'll treated
BY the s~paniards and that they were
al IN excellent health.
