How Look Good.

Good looks are really more than

healthy condition Of all the vital
organs. If the liver is inactive, you
have bilious look; if your stomach IS
disoadered, you have a dyspeptic look;
If your kidneys are affected, you have
a pinched look. Secure good health,
aad you will surely have good looks.

to freeze the fever out of my system.
Then came the war, the chance o;
lifetime, and | enlisted in time to

THOUGHTS.
The good fight is not fought at
long range, but hand to hand-a
wrestle.
God never permits more than one
foe to assail you at time, and
when you conquer this foe, all his
strength passes into you.
The greatest danger is when you
think the fight is over.
To set yourself to estimating
your power against any evil is to
confess that you have not God for
an ally.
No retreat is possible in the good
fight. To think that possible is to
think that God may be beaten.
To abandon the good fight is to
abandon hope and happiness,
power, and heaven, and God.

Three Doctors In Consultation.

From Benjamin franklin.
When you are sick, what you like best is to
be chosen for q medicine in the first place; what
experience tells you is best, to be chosen in the
second place; what reason, Ii. e., Theory says
is best to be chosen in the last place. But if you
can get Dr. Inclination, DR.. Experience
and DR.; Reason to hold a consultatio ton
gether, they will give you the best advice that
can be taken"
When you have bad cold DR.. In
clination would recommend Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy because it is
pleasant and safe to take. DR.. Expe-
rience would recommend it because it
never fails to effect speedy and per-
manent cure. DR.. Reason would rec
ommend 1T because it is prepared on
scientific principles, and acts on ma
ture's plan of relieving the lungs, and
opening the secretions and restoring
the system to natural and healthy
condition. For sale by G. w. Hous-

ST. THOMAS, Danish West Indies, May
1S.-Over thirty Porto Rican refugees, most
ly women, with very little money, arrived
here last night on board the French steamer
Rodriguez.
1t is reported that the governor general
of Porto Rico has issued proclamation
saying eight soldiers were killed and thirty
four wounded as result of the lombard
ment of the forts at San Juan by portion
of Rear Admiral SIMPSONS fleet on May
Il. He adds that two guns were dismounted
at Moro Castle, which. otherwise, was lit
tie damaged He also says the other forts
were not much hurt. In the town. one shot,
it is alleged, penetrated the palace and the
corner of powder house was carried away.
No school children were killed. The Spanish
transport Alfonso XIII and the Spanish
freight steamer Manuela were damaged by
the American fire.
The Spaniards, as usual claim they won
a victory, basing this assertion upon the
fact that the American war ships departed
under fire. But, the refugees say, the city
of San Juan is still terrorized, it's inhab BIZ
tants being in hourly fear of the reappear-
ance of the American fleet and repetition
of the bombardment. Therefore, people are
camping in the country out of range of the
American guns.
The Spaniards say that Freeman Halstead,
the newspaper correspondent, who was SEN
fenced to nine years imprisonment for pho
tographing the Notifications of San Juan,
was wounded by a shot which struck the
town JAIL but the refugees say he was prob
ably shot by the Spaniards. Many funerals
have occurred recently at San Juan.

The War Department has given orders for
ten Thousand hammOcks to be furnished at
once, and they are to be delivered lmmeol-
ately 1t is stated by experienced men that
the hammock is an absolute necessity IN
Cuban campaign, and 1t Is the only way 70
escape the vermin and the fatal dampness
of the soil 1t is thought that the hammock
will be finally adopted for the fun army or
invasion. The quartsrmaster's department.
is buying canvas for suits from everybody
between the two oceans, and cannot get the
material quick enough. A good part Of the
available supply was used for the Klondike
expedition. Bids are to be opened shortly
for other suits. Owing to the rapidlty with
which the preparations for the Cuban inva-
sion are being made, the War Department
has decided to furnish those troops not fully
equipped with uniforms with simple blue
blouse This garment Is inexpensive and
can he very quickly furnished.
The War Department denies that 1t has de
rected mastering officers to accept all regi-
mental officers of volunteer troops appointed
by Governors of States regardless of physi-
cal disqualifications. In few cases, where
Governors were particularly anxious to
commission certain officers, who, ordinarily.
would be rejected on the ground of physical
disability the mastering officers have been
directed to accept their services, but in each
case a special dispensation has been re-
quired and a special notation OF the dis
ability has been made for the benent or the
government. 1t is safe TO say that applica-
lions for pensions will not be received from
these men when the war IS over.

As to Arnadas.
Chicago Post.

1t is surprising to US that so few of our
fellow-citiZens are acquainted with the real
significance of the word armada 1t is
important that we shall all know the mean
ing of tho word that has come down to us in
commemoration of the infelicitious exploit
of Philip II. Hence it must be remembered
that an armada is peculiarly a Spanish in
stitution. Admiral Dewey and Admiral
Sampson command fleets, and Commodore
Schley is content to put UP with a squadron,
but when Spaniard starts out with or
two moderately good battle ships, a torpedo
boat or two and a few old wooden hulks we
Immediately recognize in them an ''arma-
da'' Spain has had bad luck with its arma-
das, and we suspect that it is growing some
what suspicious concerning them. They are
surer DEMONSTRATORS of storms than the
Chicago Baseball Club, and, thus far they
have been quite as harmless. Whenever we
read in the papers that an armada has
sailed from a Spanish port we feel quite
comfortable in our minds, for if we do not
eat up the armada old Neptune will. The
returns of history have decreed it and we
do not go back of the returns. There is an
armada at this moment somewhere on the
high seas. When we find it there is going
to be trouble But the point is to find it.
How can we carry on a war for Kooba Lee
bray if we cannot find anything to fight?

Happiness mt Tampa.
in Roston Transcrlpt.


Meantime there was never a happier town
than Tampa. The retailers are happy be-
cause an army of soldiers Is busily engaged
in spending here $1S0,0 of pay that 1t drew
here the other day; they are happy too.
because Tampa is in everybodys mouth
throughout tho whole country, and will new
er be forgotten; they are happy even over
SO small a matter as the fact that an army
of newspaper correspondents are buying
blankets and cots and crash suits. and tin
wash-basins and iron spoons for the cam
paign in Cuba. The American population OF
Tampa being chiefly retailers. the happiness
OF the Americans is thus answered for.s The
Cuban majority are happy because ia rev.
olucion'' is going on well, and because they
have a beautiful new regiment OF their own
here to entertain. The girls are naturally
happy because there are such myrads OF
young officers that every one of them can
get attention. The soldiers of all grades
are happy because they are going 10 see
service. Every night the bands play at the
hotel, and the rotunda swarms with officers
in babel OF cheerful talk, with recogni-
lions after years. and cordial handshake@
and affectlonate hilarity. The abounding
happiness of everybody in Tampa Is thing
TO be remembered as long as one lives. And
still the grim war material goes on rolling
down TO the port, and the black troop ships
line up one after another at the long wharf.

COLUMBUS, Ind. May 1s.-The nine
tenth annual encampment of the Grand
Army of the Republic opened this morning
under the most favorable auspices. If the
weather had been sent to order it could not
have been more perfect. Clear and bright,
with a fresh wind, made the day one that
was perfect for an encampment day. Multi
tudes of people throughout the county and
the neighboring cities were here All the
trains brought people to the city, until this
evening the streets are filled with moving
mass of humanity. 1t has been estimated
that there are not less than 250O0 people in
Columbus, and many believe that even this
number is too small. The real work Of the
encampment has not begun. To-day has
been the day of greetings and OF the re-
newals of friendships that have been broken
on account of the distance that separates
the old comrades. The work will begin to-
morrow. Political fences are being rapidly
repaired by the men who want to be COM
mander or hold some other office. The wire
pulling has gone on to-day as IL the election
to an office, with no salary and little real
glory, was the only thing on earth to live
for Rev. Daniel Ryan, of Utica, has led
all day for commander of the G. A r. Col.
Thompson, commander of the s. of ", will
be reelected to this Office with little oppo-
stion.
The parade was the feature of the day.
For almost two hours the men passed In
procession, following which came the indus
trial parade, which was given for the pur-
pose of showing to the State what Column
bus is doing. All the leading; merchants
and manufacturers were represented. Bands
of music were without number. The num-
Der of G.. A r. men in the procession was
larger than has marched for many years in
a State encampment. There is unstinted
praise for the people of Columbus. Every
one has been provided for and there is still
room. There is no confusion, and all are
receiving attention as they arrive at the
trains. This evening the crowds are being
entertained al the camp fires in the various
parts of the city.
All the visiting newspaper men in CO.
lumbus were entertained at a banquet at
the ST. Denis Hotel at 10 o'clock. T0asts
were responded to by William j. Beck,
postmaster, Gen. Jasper n. Packard.

The manufacturers of bicycles in Germany
are greatly disturbed over the small sales
of their wheels in other countries. They say
that this is largely due to the German con-
suls They think the large and increased
sales of American wheels abroad is brought
about by the hustling American consuls,
who are always doing something TO bring
the American product to the attention of the
general public. The German makers admit
with much concern that the American
wheels lead in every country where they
have been introduced. In Brazil the Ameri-
can wheel is far ahead OF all competitors.
but the sale of bicycles there is small. owing
to the poor roads. Then Brazil is also in
financial difficulty just now, which does not
help the trade.

Fiction That Was Not Prophecy.


Seventeen years ago Park Benjamin wrote
a story called The End of New York. in
which he showed that after a declaration
of war the modern cruisers of the Spanish
navy reduced New York almost to ruins
Very curiously, the name of the Spaniard
whose arrest caused the war was Blanco
This story at the time was much COM
rnented upon, and it did it's share towards
arousing the country TO appreciation of
its defenselessness. A turn in the tale at
the end was that while the Spanish admiral
was waiting for the $4,000 600 of tribute
which he had demanded, the war vessels of
Chile came TO the rescue and drove away the
foe Sometimes fiction gets to be almost as
interesting as truth.

Judge Corn Of the Wyoming Supreme
court says:
Woman suffrage has no injurious ef-
feet upon the home or the family that l
have heard Of during the twelve years |
have resided in the state. It does not
take SO much of women's time as to in
%terfere with their domestic duties, or
with their church or charitable work. II
Toes not impair their w%omanliness, or
make them less satisfactory as wives and
mothers. They do not have less respect
and consideration socially. My impress
sion is that they read the daily papers,
and inform themselves upon public ques-
tons, much more generally than women
e~lseWhere.'
