Messrs. Venters and Hazard are

that they could settle the matter.
Under the head of new business En-
gineer Wimberly addressed the coun-
Gil in regard to placing pumps at the
sewer pumping station as the ones
there at present were completely worn
out. Mr.. Badger said that this was a
much needed improvement.
The matter was referred to a special
committee for the investigation. The
committee is to be appointed this
morning by the mayor.
Alderman Scott asked that the city
give the 1st ward the amount due it
from the street improvement fund.
The amount claimed is 1925. The coun-
ell voted to give the ward the money,
and street and grade commissioner was
instructed to look after the work of
improvements.
The mayor asked the council to
raise the city health officers salary
from SS5, which it is now, 10 S125 for
the next six months, as the work which
tie is attending to at present is SO
Arduous that he is neglecting his prac-
tfce for the city's work. The motion

THE CRUISE OF THE YALE.

and headed out to sea. At the same
time he ordered signals to be set as If
asking assistance from an American
fleet to the northward. Whether this
imaginary fleet was that of Sampson or
Schley the Alphonso XIII did not wait
to see, but, discouraged by the speed OF
the Yale, gave up the chase.
By this time the Spanish captains
had learned that the safest place for
their vessels was in port, and were ak
ious only to keep out of the way of sci

mas" as Mr.. Edwin Emerson, Jr., tells
in his interesting article in the Sep
TENDER Century. Indeed the Porto
Ricans were so impressed with the at
tentions which the Yale paid their
coast, that three weeks later report
reached Hampton Roads, that the peo-
pie of San Juan believed that the Yale
must have been sunk as she had not
bee n seen recently. She was then
quietly re-coalirg in that port.
During the three weeks the Yale was
anchored in Hampton Roads, she I'M
derwent great changes. Eight five
inch rapid fire guns of the latest type
were added to her battery and mounted
on the prom en- ade deck. All but seven
of her life boats were sent ashore. The
ship was given coat of dull gray war
paint, and her bunkers were filled with

remembered, were once under the
British flag and were built according
to specifications of the admiralty, in
order that they might serve in the
English navy in case of need. All their
engines ard steering gear are, unlike
the ST. Paul and St. Louis. below the
water line. These two ships, therefore,
became the most powerful commerce
destrOyers which have ever sailed the

the Columbia and Minneapolis, of our
own and foreign navies, have attained
q speed on their trial trips greater
than that of the Yale or the Harvard,
yet none of them have the enormous
coal capacity and consequent wide
steaming radius of these auxiliary
cruisers. They could have crossed the
ocean. have espent full three weeks
marrying the Spanish coast, and have
returned without re-coaling. The lack
of armor, their size, and the large am
cunt of woodwork in the staterooms
would injeed.have rendered them very
vulnerable to shell, yet the arrange.
ment of the engine room and the many
watertight compartments into which
these ships are divided, would have
made it almost impossible for one shot
to have disabled them, and their bat
teries were heavy enough to defeat any
enemy Ia torpedo boat, for instance)
from whom their speed did not insure
kescape.
For two weeks the Yale was anchor
ed off Tom pkinsville, then she made q
third and last voyage to Cuban waters,
taking a regiment of immunes to San
| tiago and bring back a load of sick SOL
diers. On the 31st of August her Off
GERS were ordered to other ships, the
crew was paid off, and the ship was re-
turned to the American line She cost
the government nearly So, 500 day be-
sides the expenses of running her and
paying her officers and crew.
The career of the Yale as cruiser
is ended-for the present.

Geronimo PARA who is doing a term
in the New Mexico penitentiary for
cattle rustling, says .theNew Mexican,
has been discovered to be the man
wanted in Ell Psso county, Texas, for
the last 10 years for the murder of
Sergeant Charles Fussellmann. of the
Texas state rangers; and the Lone Star
state authorities are preparing to Sc
cure possession of Geronimo when re-
leased from prison here. The accused
was sentenced February 8, 1894, from
Las Cruces to seven years imprison-
ment, which would make The date of re-
lease February 9, 1901. But by good
behavior the prisoner was expected to
get out November 6, 1898. However,
Geronimo has been behaving himself
so badly that Warden Bergman will
keep him in confinement for some time
yet, and in uncertain now when the
prisoner will be released. Captain
Hughes, of the troop of rangers sta
toned just outside of Ell Pasn, was in
tending to come up for Geronimo Nov

no good for Captain Hughes to make

man may have nerve of steel and a heart
as tender as a mothers.
Of all the specialists in the world, there
probably are not two that have as wide an
experience in the treatment of women'S
diseases as DR.. r. V. Pierce, chief consult
ing physician to the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N Y. With
the assistance of his staff of able physi-
cians he has prescribed, in the past thirty
years, for many thousands of women. DR..
Pierce is pre- eminently a sympathetic ply
stefan. Perhaps more than any other man
in the profession he realizes the hardships
of wornan's work, and the disadvantages
under which she labors because of the
weak, delicate and susceptible structure of
the feminine organism. His immense prac-
tice in diseases peculiar to women forced
upon his recognition the fact that women
would never take the proper care of their
health, so long that care required the
repugnant examinations " and local
treatments - insisted upon by nearly all
physicians. After years of study he invent
ed a remedy now known as DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription that is an absolute
and unfailing cure for the most complicated
women. This wonderful medicine cures in
with the necessity for obnoxious "local
treatment" It imparts health, strength,
vigor ard elasticity to the organs distinctly
feminine and fits for wifehood and mother
hood.

Col. Rowan, who has been making q
tour of the island of Cuba in the inter
est of our Government, gives different
account of the Cubans than has been
given us by certain newspapers. He
ssye: "The insurgents deserve some
consideration. They made tremendous
sacrifices when they went to the woods.
They have endured privations without
end. As fighters they are as good as any
soldiers 1 know. Their officers are supe-
rior to Spanish officers of the same grade
in intelligence and bravery. If the bot
tom had not dropped out of the Spanish
war after the battle of Santiago the
American army would have found them
invaluable allies in their advance upon
Havana. Without their aid as guides
and scouts the overland march to Havana
would have been all but impossible"
