Shadow of Herself
Stomach Was Too Weak

A Complete Cure Effected by
Hoods Sarsaparilla
Now Enjoying the Best OF Health,
With Digestion Perfect.

"My mother was subject to sick head
aches and indigestion for over a year.
She was unable to stand for any length
of time, and was obliged TO stay in dark
room as she could not bear the light. She
had no appetite whatever and her stomach
was so weak she could not retain what
food she did eat. She also had severe
pains in her head. She suffered so much
that she became but the shadow Of her
self. One day happened to read tes-
timoniaI about Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1t

persuaded her to try this medicine.
Before finishing the first bottle there was
an improvement in her condition. She nc
longer threw up her food and her head
ache was not as severe. She took in all
four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparills and
several boxes of Hoods Pills and regained
her weight. She is now enjoying the best
of health. Her digestion is good and she
can eat almost anything she wishes. She
is AZ years old and says she feels SIS well
as when she was 16. Hoods Sarssparilla
made a complete cure in her case"

GOOD SHOOTING
sPORTsMEx HAVE A CONTEST
Novelty system introduced For the
First Time,

There was another interesting shoot
given yesterday afternoon by Messrs.
Bennett and Bate in Riverside park. The
shoot is what is known among sports
ment as the Novelty system" To the
uninitiated it is simply throwing the clay
birds in all directions, the shooter never
knowing which way the bird will be sent,
and sometimes they come like lightning
straight toward the marksman- This is
considered the most difficult of any trap
shooting, and the score would indicate
that the Wichita marksmen have not in
dulged in this kind to any great extent
There was quite a large crowd in attend
ance, and all seemed TO enjoy the days
sport. 1t will be repeated next Thursday
afternoon.
The first event was at fifteen clay birds.

The principal battle was the success Of
the attempt Of Gomez with 1000 men to

Camaguey, to make his headquarters,
with the officers of the government of the
Cuban republic, in Camaguey The tro.
cha at this pointwas guarded by 1000
Spaniards under General Castellanos and
never had been broken before.
General Gomez himself led his soldiers
as they made the attack on the trocha
and the bloctlhouses early in the morning.
The principal bockhouses were not heay-
lily garrisoned and were quickly stormed
and taken. The Spanish soldiers fell back
of the trocha line and there made stub
born resistance which they kept up the
greater part of the day
In the afternoon. however, their main
body gave way before machete charge
of the Cubans and the entire Cuban force
passed over the dividing line and marched
without further interruption into CANA
guey. More than 300 Spaniards were
killed in the battle and about 1870 Cubans
lost their lives There We're many wound
ed on both sides. Spanish and Cuban
wounded were cared for alike by General
Gomez's physicians and Spanish prison.
ers were liberated after being deprived Of
their arms.
In Tres Palmas General Diaz, with a
comparatively small body of Cuban SOL
diers engaged a Spanish column 600
strong, drove them out of the village and
took possession of it together with store
of arms and provisions which were dis
tributed among the Cuban families. There
is great restitution among all around
Tres Palmas.

from Puerto Rico says:
OF the Sixth Massachusetts officers the
colonel, lieutenant colonel and the majors
and three captains resigned They were
charged with incompetency and lack of
discipline. The trouble in the Sixth Mas

that white officers refuse to return the
