-.Ae Original organ Grinder.

When barrel organs, once the usual
accompaniment of the magic lantern,
came into use, a native of the province
of Tende was II Of the first who tray
eled about Europe with this instrument.
In his pe%regrinations he collected
money enough to enable him to purchase
from the king of Sardinia the title Of
count OF the country where be was born
for which, probably, in a time of wal
he did not pay above 1000 guineas.
With the remainder Of his money he
purchased an estate suitable to his rank
and settled himself peaceably for the
remainder of his days in his mansion.
In the entrance hall Of his dwelling
he hung up his magic lantern and his
organ facing the door, there to be care
fully preserved till they moldered to
dust, and he ordered by his will that
any one of his descendants who should
cause them to be removed should forfeit
his inheritau nee and his patrimony revert
to the next heir, or, in failure of a sue
cessor, to the hospital of Tende.
Only u few years ago the organ and
lantern were still to be seen carefully
preserved. -Pearson's Weekly.

Something that is good and no fake"
The note was unsigned. The boy did
not get anything. When he left the
store, he was joined by a girl about IS.

A farmer in Matagorda County, Texas, who had
suffered from indigestion for nearly five years, had the
good fortune to have a wife who had tried Ripans
Tabules and who recommended them to her husband. In
speaking of his former digestive troubles he says: After
eating, my stomach would become distcnded and food
become sour. | was also troubled with palpiation of the
heart. After had taken two or three Tabules that fullness
Disappeared, and I have never since felt the least
symptoms of palpitation Of the heart. My wife, who was
troubled with headache, tired feeling and collie, says she
felt better after taking the very first Tabule."

LATEST WAR NEWS.

Capt. Gen. August reports to
Madrid from Manila upon his des-
perate situation. He has 1000 sick
and 200 wounded. The heavy rains
are destroying his defenses. Augusti
reports that Gen. AguinaldO has
sent a demand for his surrender, but
that he had refused.
Owing to the delay in the arrival
of troops at Manila the situation in
the Philippines threatens to become
complicated. The rebels, influenced
by foreign Consuls, now want COM
plete independence. Aguinaldo
may invite recognition by the Pow
ers. This may bring about a rup-
ture with the Americans, which
Germany desires. Aguinaldo has
already had interviews with the
German Admiral.
The President issued a proclama-
ton extending the blockade of the
southern coast of Cuba from Cape
Frances to Cape Cruz, and also de-
claring a blockade of San Juan,
Porto Rico. This order adds about
500 miles of Cuban coast line to that
which was already blockaded.

WILL ATTACK
SPANS COAST.
CONTINUED from First PageJ


iards located them and pressed them
hard, but they sent a deadly fire in
return, even though most of the
time they could not see the enemy.
After ten or fifteen minutes of hot
work, the firing fell off some, and
Lieut.-COl. Roosevelt ordered his
men back from the thickets into the
trail, narrowly escaping bullet
himself, which struck tree along
side his head.
1T was evident that theSpaniards
were falling back and changing
their positions, but their fire con-
tinued at intervals. Then the troops
tore to the front and into more open
country than where the enemy's
fire was coming from.
During the fight in the thicket
several troops did some wild shoot
ing into the troops ahead Of them,
and a part of the American loss is
due to this fact. AS soon as the pO-
Sition had been changed the Ameri-
cans poured more terrific fire than
ever into the Spaniards, as they got
them into more open country and
could see them better.
1T was not long before the enemy
gave way and ran down the steep
hill and up another hill to the block
house, with the evident intention of
making a final stand there.
"COl. Wood was directing the
troops at the front. Col. Wood and
Lieut. Col. Roosevelt both led the
troops in pursuit of the fleeing Span
iards, and a hail of bullets was
poured into the blorkhouse. By the
time the American advance got
within 600 yards of the blockhouse
the Spaniards abandoned it and
scattered among the brush up an
other hill, in the direction of Sanli-
ago, and the battle was at an end.
Gen. Young's Battle.
During all this time Just as hot a
fight was going on at Gen. Young's
station. The battle began in much
the same manner as the other one,
and when the machine guns opened
fire the Spaniards sent vollevs p the
gunners from the brush on the Oppo-
site hillside. Two troops of cavalry
charged up the hill, and other troops
sent a storm of bullets at every point
from which the Spanish shots came.
The enemy was gradually forced
back, though fighting all the time,
until thev, as we'll as those confront
ing the Rough Riders, ran for the
block house, only to be dislodged by
Col. Woods men.
"Gen. Young stated afterward that
the battle was one of the sharpest he
had ever experienced. 1t was only
the quick and constant fire of the
troops that caused the Spaniards to
retreat so soon. Gen. Young spoke
in the highest terms of the conduct
of the men is his command, and both
Col. Wood and Lieut.-COl Roosevelt
were extremely grPtified with the
work done by the Rough Riders in
their first battle"

The artillery is not yet in place, and
more is needed. At Washington it
is thought that Gen. Shafter may
wait for the arrival of the eXpedi-
ton which left Tampa yesterday,
as that expedition carries much
heavy artillery. Meantime the left
flank of the army may take Moro
Castle, which should he cOmpari-
lively easy, as Morro's guns point to
the sea.
"There is lack of agreement as to
possible delay, however, and if Gen.
Shafter fears Spanish re-entorce-
ments he is expected to attack as
soon as he gets his guns in position,
regardless OF plans for reinforcing
him.
THE Washington officials are un-
easy about the situation at Manila.
A dispatch was received yesterday
from Admiral Dewey, but part of it,
relating to the aspiration of the in
surgents for recognition by the Pow
ers was not made public.
admiral Camara is lying at PorU
Said undetermined as to his next
move. Washington confidently be-
leves be is going to turn back to
Spain, while Madrid insists that he
is already on his way through the
Suez canal, which is not true.
Camara must move soon. He can
GO through the canal if he has the
price, but the canal officials have re.
fused to accept his draft for tolls"
