THE COLONY FOR GAMBLER.

The Old Veterans of Fitzgerald Are Enthu
siastic. Glowing Tribute.
The Fitzgerald Leader, in an edito-
rial, has the following to say in refer
ence to the speech made by Colonel A,
d. Gambler in that city:
1.-The address of Colonel Allen D.
Gambler, candidate for governor of the
common people of Georgia, in this CITY
last Saturday, was the most cOnserva-
tive, logical and manly address ever
made before an appreciative audience
north or south. 1t was devoid of that
political mud Singing and demagog-
uery that is so often heard on the
stump. The address was a MASTER
piece in thought, eloCution and manli.
ness, which demonstrated to the vast
audience present that in the election of
Allen d. Gambler for governor Of the
grand old state of Georgia they will
make no mistake
THE OLD VETERANS PRESENT
There was large number of old
federal veterans present, who listened
TO the colonel attentively. 1t is not
necessary to say that nine-tenths of
OF them will cast their first vote in
OeOISld LOT Uue OIu eX-C0ntederate
veteran-~nOt because he is an ex.coD-
federate, but because he is an Ameri-
can citizen, and one of natures noble
and manly men.
During his life residence in Geor-
gia Colonel Gamblers honesty has new
er been questioned by honorable men
who love truth and justice, as we
learn from thoie who know him as a
citizen, brave soldier and statesman.
"Mr. Gambler, unlike his opponents.
is not travelling over the state annoy
ing his rivals b midnight conferences
in the office of supposed neutral
newspaper or in any way playing the
part OF a political pirate and sneak.
GREAT AND BRAVE MAN.
Colonel Gambler, thank God, does
not belong to that class of human be.
lngs WHO call themselves men. 1t was
on the farm and on the lap of a saInted
mother he was taught that first lesson,
to fear God and keep His command
ments. The lesson taught him by his
mother has been the guiding star of
his life. But why dwell upon the good
name and spotless character of man
so well and favorably known as Colo
mel Gambler -

ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, a receptacle for the urine.
and as such it is notliable to any form of
disease except by one of two ways. The
first way is from imperfect action of the
kidneys. The second way is from care.
less local treatment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAOsE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
neys is the chief cause of bladder troub-
les. SO the womb, like the bladder. was
created !or enc purpose, and if not doc
u0red too much is not liable to wea kness
or disease, except in rare cases. 1t is
situated back of and very close to the
bladder, therefore any pam, disease or
inconvenience manifested in the kidneys
back, bladder or urinary passage is often,
by mistake, attributed to female weak,
ness or womb trouble of some sort. The
error is easily made and may be as east
lY avoided. To find out correctly set
your urine aside for twenty-four hours

Washington, d. c., July 25.-Dyer
since the war with Spain broke out,
the American people have come to eX-

1t was late on the night of Sunday,

destroyed and on the night of July s.
another Sunday-came the information
that the pride of the Spanish navy,
Ceryera's squadron had been sent to

Last night comes news that still
another battle has been fought on Sun
day. 1t is reported that portion of
SIMPSONS fleet attacked Manzanillo
early yesterday morning, and that the
result was similar to the two other
Sunday engagements, which will go
down into history as the most remark
able ever fought,
The details of the Manzanillo fight
are not Forthcoming. 1t is known that
advices have been received by the
president, but up to late hour moth
ing official could be secured at either
the war or navy departments beyond
the mere statement that the Ameri-
can forces have again been engaged.

Fort Sam Houston, San Antonio,
Texas, July 25-We are advancing in
the drill tactics Friday the Second
squadron practiced the charge. The
troop were divided into two platoons
and the charge was made by platoons.
The command forward lat a wall)
was given and then trot, and gallop;
when they had advanced about fifty
yards the charge was sounded and with
sabres held at the Charge" the troop
ers bounded forward on a dead run,
which was continued for 200 yards,
each platoon going through the move
ment after the preceding platoon had
executed it, The drill ground has Il
great many holes in it and care has
to be used to keep the horses from
slipping into them.
The drill ground is three miles from
the post and the dust along the route
is very disagreeable. The heat, too,
gets the best of some of the soldiers.
Every day some can be seen falling out
of ranks and seeking shelter from the
suns rays On the return march one
can see numerous troopers by the road
side in the shade of mesquite bush
resting.
Saturday the Third squadron practic-
ed firing with blank cartridges) the
carbines on horseback. Some of the
horses were frightened and ran away
A few of them pitched, but most of
them behaved very well; better than
was expected, The other squadrons
will soon commence practicing firing
and the boys are looking forward to it

"tlme" that we will have the horses
The horses are learning the commands

Washington, July 35.-"General Shat
ter with his Fifth corps, will take the
+ Held against Havana in the fall. I'm
til then they will rest in the United
States.
"As soon as the Spanish prisoners
are well out Of the way, General Shat
ter with the Fifth corps will be or
dered back to the United States, per-
haps to NTontauck Point, L. L., or some
such suitable place. where they will
rest and recuperate so as to be ready
for the campaign in the fall against
Havana"
This statement was made to me by
one of the trusted counselors of the
president. The statement was further
made that not one of the regiments
now in Santiago would be sent to POr-
to Rico; that it was thought by the ad-
ministration that in all of them there
was some danger OF fever infection.
But General Shafter will remain at
Santiago only until the Spanish pris-
Oners are disposed Of, according to the
present plans OF the government.
Many Northern camp sites are be-
ing now considered by the govern
ment, Seagirt, n. j., among them. 1t
may be necessary to bring more of the
Southern troops North, but they will
not be brought unless it is necessary.
% 4. I'D al xynt nr
ans is also to be put into shape for the
Havana campaign The Porto Rico
army, also, will be, by fall, hardened
to field and fire, and together with the
Fifth corps, which will then join it,,
$4,000 seasoned men will move upon
Havana
This is now the plan of the admin
istration. These $4,000 men will form
the nucleus about which 100000 more
volunteers now in this country will be
formed. BY fall these volunteers, it
is expected, will be in prime condition,
both as to equipment, arms and uni
forms.
If the Porto Rico campaign is to be
q deliberate one, the campaign against
Havana is to be more deliberate one.
In order to relieve the regiments Of
the Fifth corps as soon as possible af-
ter the Spanish prisoners have been
placed on the transports General Cop
pinger has been ordered to send three
regiments from the Fourth corps at
Tampa to Santiago at once. The reg
iments designated are the Fifth Mary
land, First Florida and Second Geor-
gia, These regiments, with the i'm
mune regiments already ordered there,
will be sufficient to hold Santiago and
the surrendered territory, and they
may operate against Holguin and Man
zanillo.
