GnE news, if it may be called news,
received during the past week has
been simply a lot of reports, followed
by immediate denials of battles on
the seas. Sifted down nothing re-
mains worth putting in type. The
L. S. regulars are still at Tampa, ex-
capting a few which were lande ed with
supplies in Cuba. A large body OF
troops have been sent to Manila, and
more are ready to go. The volunteers
c,ntinue to pour into Chickamauga,
and about forty thousand are now
there, being drilled and equipped for
the field.
The best information obtainable
clearly indicates that Admiral Cerve-
"a, and his feet of war ships are bot
tied up in Santiago harbor by the
American warships. Information to
this effect has been received in Wash.
ington. Cersera will either have to
come out and fight or starve in his hi
ding place.
The invasion of Cuba will be delay
ed only until more transports can be
secured. There are now thirty ships
in waiting, but as many more ave nee
essary. There will be two divisions OF
the invading army, the first consisting
of the $4,000 troops now at Tampa
New Orleans and Mobile, and the sec.
ond of As, 900 volunteers. The first ar.
my of 10000 will be made up of l9, 0Ot

This is some of Sam Jones' talks to
the woman of Henderson, Ky:
"When God gives a man a wife and
six children he has done a great deal
for that fellow. But when he gives
him a society woman and a poodle he
has thrown off on him. These society
women shake hands with me. / would
as soon shake a dead fish's tail
wouldn't give one of your sock darn

in the country. Between cutting off
the top of their dress for the ball room
and the bottom for the bicycle these
society women will soon have no
clothes left A man said to a society
woman: Il hope I'll see more of you.
She said: Come to the ball tonight!
