The War Girl.

She wore 2 dress Of navy blue
The collar white and blue and red;
A striped belt-and stockings, too;
/ sailor hat was on her head
Red, white aud blue her Chatelain;
she mad flag beneath her chain,
She wore a badge-"U s. 5 Maine"
a tiny cannon for pin.
Sac wore a shell comb ia her hair,
With army buttons al embossed
Some swords were also sticking there,
And at ner belt small rifles crossed,
Her pocket book was knapsack shape,
Her smelling bottle a wee canteen
Containing essence of Crushed Grape
The neatest thing I'd ever seen.
Her face was patriotic, too,
And full of everlasting charms.
Her cheeks were red, teeth white, eyes
blue;
She also had repeating arms.
In fact, she was in fighting trim"
So an Engagement l did seek;
Aud though my chance to win was
Icruised around about her cheek.

A perfect fusilade of smiles
1t shook my heart "windward to

Re-echoing for miles and miles
My rapid-firing lips / turned
Upon her then for they were loadedD.
But when the fast-sent kisses burned.
The powder on her face exploded!

80 p. m The final report Of casualties

246. of whom u were officers; wound
ed. 1854, of whom 90 were officers
and missing 81, of whom none were
officers. OF the wounded, only 68
have died.
Col. Pope, the surgeon-in-chief, says
this is a remarkably small number of
fatalities, considering the large number
of, wounded. In the field hospitals
there have been remarkably small
number of septic wounds, and bet two
cases of gangrene have developed, one
of which resulted fatally.

Signed by President Mckinley and Will

WASHINGTON, July Is The pres
ident has signed tie war tariff for
Santiago and 1t takes effect tomorrow.
The instructions were Immediately
cabled to the authorities in charge of
Santiago by Secretary Alger so that
the tariff can be put in force tomorrow
morning. The new tariff aboishes the
discriminatlve tariff now in operation
there the rates for different countries AT
Cuban ports varying. This country
took as its basis the rates accorded
products of Spain and applies them to
all countries not even excepting the
United States.
The most important change effected
is a reduction of the tonnage duty on
ships carrying 1000 tons or more
which go in and out of the port from
the present rate of 81 ton to a rate of
twenty cents per ton. The heavy eX-
port duty on tobacco and certain other
Cuban products and the five cent ex-
port tax on iron ore are retained for a
while at least.

tors and manufacturers of " Mothers
Friend" This successful remedy is not
one of the many internal medicines adj
vertised TO do unreasonable things, but a
scientifically prepared liniment especially
effective in adding strength and elasticity
to those parts Of woman's organism which
bear the severest strains of childbirth.
The liniment may be used at any and
all times during pregnancy up TO the
very hour of confinement. The earlier IL
is begun, and the longer used, the more
perfect will be the result, but it has been
used during the last month only with
great benefit and success.
II not only shortcns labor and lessons
the pain attending it, but greatly dimin-
ishes the danger to life of both mother
and child, and leaves the mother in a con-
dition more favorable to speedy recovery.

TO ESCAPE FEyERS.

Troops Will Leave Santiago soon as Pos

tary Government VIII be Maintained.
Washington, July l6.-Pending the
settlement of the details of the capilu-
lation at Santiago, war department Of
ticials are giving the major portion II
their attention to the adoption of strict
measures for the protection of our
troops from yellow fever and from low
tropical fevers. The department has
decided TO remove the troops a. Santa

Corbin said today that within five miles
of Santiago proper conditions were as
nearly ideal as oh ainable in the tropics
for stamping out the fever; high hills,
assured of well drained camps, a most
important element in the preservation
of health; the water supply coming
from mountains was pure and album
dant, and fresh sea breezes prevail.
While the main body OF troops is 10

they are needed for service United
States; some troops necessary elsewhere,
or are returned to the will be placed
either in the town itself or In camps
commanding the place, in order TO pro-
tect the inhabitants. 1t is believed
that the two regiments of immunes al
ready on their way to Santiago will be
assigned to tina, duty. II is the present
intention of the authorities here TO
maintain military government at Sar-
tiago. regardless of hints from Cuban
sources that they are prepared to under
take the administration there. 1t is be-
leved that the United States is under
xmoral obligation to the world to see to
4 that nothing but a highly civilized
government shall be set up in Cuba,
wherefore the authorities here are dis
posed to be extremely cautious, and to
make full test of the capacity OF the
Cubans before eutrusting the lives and
property of the people of Santiago to
they care.
