against that country was declared
only a little over six weeks ago. vet
there are many dissatisfied because
Cuba is not vet free.
At the outset the government had
to face conditions created by over
thirty wear. of mlbrol>cn pcacc We
had a standing army of only $4,000

overa vast area. Entering upon a
war that is to be largely naval. we

with the necessary armament for the
most effective action Five of our
thirteen protected cruisers were dis

largest and best of our four first class
battieships was ON the Pacific coast
IL. 600 miles from the seat of war Our
seacoast dereuccs were weak and in
adequately equipped This was the
situation in which the government
found itself when for the first time i'm
fifty years war had been declared

been strengthened by the addition of

auxiliary cruisers and for coast de
fence. Fhe battleship Oregon has
been brought safely around Cape
Horn into the field of action. An
army of 1890 volunteers has been
mustered in and modified at con
vcnieut points, and another army Of
$4,000 has been called for. Ar eilec-
tive blockade of the principal Cuban
ports has been maintained A suni-

army and navy has been mauufnc-
tured and put in use. A new and
complete system of defence has been
devised and put into operation along
our Atlantic and gulf coasts, includ-
ing the construction OF signal
stations along the entire line extend
ing for thousands of miles, and the
cooperation of the light house and
life saving service has been secured

have certain number Of rounds or bar
rows of ore to wheel TO the furnace dur

One stormy night the foreman, who
was suffering from a severe headache
retired to his cabin; but, being of a sus-
picious nature, he left the door open
that he might hear if anything unusual
took place
The men had worked steadily on for
some time, passing the cabin with each
barrow Of ore on their way to the lift
At last one man in passing the door re-
marked loudly to another, lone more

seemed to develop into hasty con-

Discovery in store, and selling lots of
it, he took bottle home, and to the
surprise of all she began to get better
from first dose. and half dozen dollar
bottles cured her sound and well. DR..
