DISTINGUISHED PRISONERS.
Adm. Ccrvera aud the Other Onicers Of
His Fleet Attend Dvnc Worship
In 81. Mays Catholic Church.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, July ls.-Mary-
lands ancient capital was crowded
Sunday with curiosity seekers who
came from baltimore, Washington and
clScw here by rail and by water in the
hope of getting n peep at Adm. Ger
vera and the men who fought and lost
in the great naval fight off Santiago.
Those who reached here early in the
morning were rewarded for their trou-
BILE, as nearly all the prisoners, includ-
ing the admiral attended divine SER
vice at St Mary's Roman Catholic
church, where they offered up thanks
for their dcliverance from the fate
that overlook SO many "f heir less

At the close of the services the Off
GERS returned to the naval academy
and spent the balance of the day in
strolling about the grounds or loung-
ing on the broad piazzas which SUR
round most of the buildings in which
the prisoners are quartered They
are rapidly becoming accustomed to
their surroundings and seem cheerful
and contented. Ample provision has
been made for their comfort, their
food is plentiful and of the best quail
ity, and clothes will be provided for
such as will accept
Capt. Eulate, of the Vizcaya, is the
only one of the officers who has thus
far refused to sign the parole pledge.
His reasons for it are that Adm. Ger
vera was only required to give a verbal
promise, and that his (Eulate's) rank
entities him to the same privilege.
The authorities here have no doubt
that the matter will be amicably ar
ranged and that the scruples of the
gallant officer may be overcome.

DON'T KEEP POISON IN YOUR

If your stomach poisons your liver the
consequences may be serious.
What poisons arise in your stomach
come from undigested food which has
decomposed there. They are absorbed by
your blood and 90 to your liver. where
they paralyze its functions and make
you bilious.
Finally they go into the blood again
and are carried all over the body. disor-
dering your different organs, and per-
maps making you dangerously sick.
This Is the origin of many diseases
which are not always known for what
they are.
The posons of undigested food can only
be got rid of by the use OF a purifying
strengthening. digestive tonic, like the
Shaker Digestive Cordial.
A few doses of this wonderful cordial
will soon clear away all undigestcd, fer
menting, poisonous substances. restore
your appetite, aid you to digest your
food, purify your liver and blood of all
dangerous poisons, and restore you to
perfect health.
