The sea entrance to the bay of Santiago
de Cuba is protected by four forts, the
most redoubtable being MORO Castle. This
fort has the advantage of being situated
Upon very high elevation.
The channel at It's outer. entrance Is
about 300 feet wide, and only one ship can
enter or leave the harbor at a time. 1t Is
said that the entrance TO the harbor mas
been made narrower by distractions III
the channel so that now the safe channel
is not more than 100 feet wide. 1t lis also
said that new Krupp guns have been
mounted on each side of the entrance TO
the harbor and that the entire channel
had been carefully mined.

The announcement that Tom Ryan, the Welter- weight champion, was to go four rounds with Henry Baker of Chi cago had the effect of drawing about 10000 people to the fair at night.sN hen the doors were opened ats o'clock there was an immense crowd eager to obtain admittance. They continued to a half, until 10 o'clock, the hour set for the bout, when there was not an inch of standing room left.
 When the men came upon the stand and went to their corners they were greeted with prolonged applause. Referee Willie Jordan introduced the men. Ryan looked to be in the pink of condition and showed no bad effects from the recent battle with Green-in fact, he declared that he had never felt in better shape.
 At 10 o'clock the men shook hands and the bout commenced. Ryan began to play for an opening. Baker feinted with his right and followed it up with a straight left lead for Ryan's head, but Tom was not there. Baker shot his right for Ryan's wind, but it was a foot short and he got swinging up percut on the chin from Toms right that had some steam behind it. He clinched to avoid further punishment and in the breakaway Ryan landed both right and left on Bakers face in quick succession. This put the Chicago boy on the defensive, and Ryan became a little too confident, for in an attempt to duck a vicious left swing he ran into a right follow, which peeled the skin from his forehead. This nettled Ryan and he sailed into Baker like a volcano and had him going when time

The Golden Jubilee Mining Fair Of 1898 is a thing of the past. The lights have been turned out, the curtain rung down, and actors and audience alike have passed from the scene as phan- toms of some half-forgotten dream vanish when the dreamer awakens. But the memory of what has been, the knowledge of the glory that was theirs, remains, and the fair leaves in the trail Of commercial history the imprint of that success which is ever the exponent of public spirited energy.
 Superintendent John H. Gilmore no longer ably wields the executive reins Of management, Joseph M. Cumming will continue his smile and urbanity in other realms, while J. P. Healy will close very shortly a contract with Bar mum and Bailey to furnish those circus 'magnates with world-startling attrac- tions Louis ". Bailey takes with him the gratitude of the press and many others for his consistent courtesy and continual willingness to oblige, and Ed ward H. Benjamin will endeavor to strike it rich in some other claim.
 And last-but by no means least-the memory of Secretary Filcher and his private room remain as a memory to the sense of taste and smell, a place and healths pledged than anywhere else known.

TROUBLE IN THE
 EUREKA SOCIETY
Secretary Brown Resigns After Tilt With President
 Futile.
Board of Directors Badly Broken Up Over Money and Other
 Matters

Judging from present indications the Eureka Society for the Protection of Chil- dren office in the Donohoe building, is on the verge of disruption, financial and otherwise. At any rate there was a sort of a meeting held on Friday evening at which President F.. A Futile and Sec retary R. B. Brown became involved in a quarrel, and the society is now with out a secretary, Mir. Brown at once re- signing in an angry mood.
 This condition of affairs was not the result of sudden outburst of temper, but was the effects of heterogeneous ele- ments of which the society Is composed. The society was organized as result of a quarrel in tho parent body. the Cali fornia Society for the Prevention of Cru city to Children. Mrs. John Pettee drew out of the old body and formed the new one because she objected 10 the then secretary, MT. Walsh. She wanted Frank Holbrook for that position, and she gave him a similar place In the new organiZa- tion. Of course, she was the frst presi- dent, but the directors did not like her rule. and without ceremony they voted her out of the chair, and then out of the organization. R. A. Futile succeeded Mrs. Pettec, but IIobrook held on 10 his Job until the lst Of December, when he. too, was relieved of his duties In the mean time the matter of coin troubled the scv- eral and frequently changing boards of directors, and at no time since the so- cicty started has this financial wolf been very far from it's door.
 At tho earnest solicitation Of President Tuttlc, MT. Brown became JolbroolS'f .uccosscr and since the Jst .Jf December lie has worked with a will 70 make a reputation for the society and benefit the youthful and unfortunate of humanity, The handicap was too heavy. The offi- cers of the body made many arrests of

The second round opened by Ryan placing his right in Bakers wind Ryan then feinted with his left. Baker led with his right for Ryan's head, but Tom stopped the blow and planted his left on the side of Bakers head. Both men indulged in some hot work at close quarters, in which Ryan had all the best of 1t. When time was called he was landing when and where he pleased.
 Baker began the third by tapping right in his wind in return, which was followed by a smashing right and left on the head that made the Chicago boy look funny Ryan ducked out of the way of vicious left for his head and placed his left on Bakers nose and his right on his wind and was out of the way before his opponent could re- cover. Ryan had the best of the round.
 The fourth and last round saw Ryan go for Baker in earnest. He tucked away from a left-hand swing and land ed his right in Bakers face, and fol- lowed it up with a right in the wind and a left on the nose. Baker clinched, and when the men broke away he got two on the head and one in the wind. Ryan gave a pretty exhibition in this round of his clever ducking and foot work The men were applauded when time was called.
 After the boxing contest there was an auction of articles donated for the benefit of the families of those who perished in the Maine disaster. The programme of the Native Sons and Daughters was then carried out and several addresses were made. This ended the fair.

DR. WURTH'S OPINION
OF THE NEW DISCOVERY IN MEDI
 CINE.
A Remarkably Successful Remedy for Dyspepsia, Indigestion and Stomach TroIIbleS
ADVERTISEMENTS.

Dyspepsia, Indigestion and Stomach
 Troubles.
 Dr. Wurth, in commenting on. recent = discoceries. in medicine said: There ~ is none which is certain to be so valua- ble and far reaching in benefit as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. the new stomach remedy; I say far reaching, because people little realize how inn portant a sound stomach and vigorous digestion is to every man, woman and child.
 Indigestion is the starting point of consumption, heart disease, Bright s disease, diabetes, nervous prostration, liver troubles; why is this so? Simply because every nerve, muscle and tis- sue in our bodies is created and nour- ished from the food we eat. If that food is, by reason Of weak stomach, compelled to- lie for hours, a sour. fermenting mass of half-digested food, it poisons the blood and nervous sys- tenn, creates gas which distendS the stomach and bowels, causing pressure on the heart, lungs and other organs and seriously impeding their action. . He says further. the point to direct attention is not the nerves, nor the heart nor lungs nor kidneys, but the stomach, the first cause of all the mis- chief.
 The remedy to use for indigestion and weak stomachs is not some cathar- tic, but a remedy which will digest the food, increase the flow of gastric juice, absorb the gases. and Stuart's Dyspep- sia Tablets will accomplish exactly this result in any case Of stomach trouble. because these tablets are composed of the digestive acids, aseptic pepsin, Gol- den Seal and j3ismuth, pleasant to taste, and not being patent medicine, can be used by any one with perfect safety. I believe Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will cure any form of indiges- tion and stomach trouble, except can Cer of stomach
 Full size packages of Stuarts by sQepsia Tablets are sod by druggists at 50 cents. A book on stomach dis eases together with thousands of tes- timonials will be sent by addressing Stuart Company, Marshall. Mich.

parents guilty of abusing and neglecting their children, and many of these cases resulted in the cruel parents being fined these fines should go to the prosecutors, but in this instance they could not, as the Eureka Society was not incorporated. porate these fines would help out on the expenses. Even in this movement there eral meetings were called, and on no occasion was a quorum present. and the we'll crawled closer to the door.
 Another meeting vas vas called de for Friday to transact business. By this time it was pretty we'll understood that number of the directors had no intention of paying any more attention to the society and were about to resign. These were A c. Bauer, E. L. Madam, F. A. Holbrook and M. Stein. The last meeting increased this Templeman, who, 1t is said, will step down and out in the very near future This leaves President Futile, V. Krolow H. Thorpe A. l.. Fredericks and Mrs Burnett who show any disposition to stay by the ship. Mrs Burnett, who is sis ter of Mrs. Templeman, may possibly de- sert with the others.
 When the meeting was found to be so sadly short of directors the conversation turned to the finances and Secretary Brown told the members that he was not working for the fun of the thing and that 1t was necessary for him to pay his pri- vate bills. He asked President Futile how soon he could make arrangements to pay his salary. This inquiry, it is said. seemed to anger the president, and he an swered to the effect that MT. Brown was not the only creditor of the society and there are as good men as Mir. Brown waiting for their pay. The manner more than the words aroused the secretary's blood and he told President Futile that he was not accustomed to being treated like a dog and that he would not stand any of the presidents impudence, or some thing to that effect. The presence of the lady directors prevented the angry sec retary from saying all that he would have liked 10. but he did not mince mat ters fin telling the president that he want ed and must have what is due him, some thing near $i00 More than that. he wrote out his resignation to take effect at once, with emphasis on the last two words.
 This little episode caused commotion, for the directors present at once took up the fight, some taking sides with the sec retary and others, iH the interest of peace endeayorsd 10 patch up the affair. There waa no patch, for yesterday Sec refilry Brown picked up his personal ef- fecta and departed. after handing the key 10 Inc office 10 one of the directors, who expressed his great sorrow that so effi- ciont Il man ns Mir. Brown should sever his connection with the Eureka Society.
