While the Dawson dispensary has
sboUn decided falling off in receipts
since the summer months began it Is

s40O 10 $500 week. The smallest sales

we're $1,000. Beginning next month,
when decided impetus will be given all
lines OF business,I the receipts will

from 81 900 to 81 800 per week.
The dispenSary at Sasser has not been
self.sastainng for several weeks, but the
business men of the town are max
ing good the deficit. They believe that
when the fall business opens the sales
will be sufficient to pay expenses.
should they not do so, however, and the
citizens do not continue to make
good the deficit, the dispensary there
will be discontinued, in accordance with
the act establishing dispensalies in the
county, which provides that whenever a
diSpensary does not pay expenses it
shall be closed.
The Brentwood dispensary, while max

The concluding portion of the Span

No effort was made to communicate
it to the United States government to

been received but not disclosing its

There is complete retlcence in all

The Rough Riders have made a name for themselves that will live in history. Brave and intrepid, they charged the heights of San Juan az ,inst an intrenched and greatly superior force of the enemy, carrying everything before them. In this charge brave Buckey O'Neill fell and many of our own brave troops were horribly wounded, but they turned the blockhouse de. lenses of San Juan into slaughter pens when they reached the heights.
