THE WEALTH OF CUBA.

If Uncle Sam should, in the interest of
humanity, add Cuba to his domains, it
would almost double his wealth. With
Cuba under stable government and
fully cultivated Uncle Sam would soon
control the worlds markets for four
great staples-tobacco, sugar, coffee and
rice. 1t seems a shame to abandon this
rich island to an alien race. 1t is a great
err shame for a man to abandon his stom-
ach to the ravages of disease. To
strengthen the stomach take Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. 1t is just the thing
to stimulate the appetite. 1t will over
come dyspepsia. If there is constipation
it will establish regularity of the bowels
1t makes the nerves strong and steady,
and gives restful slumber. There is no

YOUR WEAK SPOT.
DO YOU KNOW lust WHERE 1T is.
"A Fortress is no Stronger Than its Weakest
Spot Neither is any Man or Woman

"Hopelessly ruined through one weak
spotn'
1t was a great scientific expert who re-
Gently EXPRESSED this opinion in regard
TO a costly battleship lately completed
for the e. S. Navy. When the huge yes
sci was launched and made ready to re-
ceive its gigantic cannon, it was found
that it could not stand the strain of the
added weight. The whole ship was in
danger of falling to pieces. Owing to a
weak spot i'll its construction, the great
man-of-war was hopeless ruined. 1t
was only when the strain came that its
weak condition was actually discovered.
Strange as it may seem, there are thou
sands of men and women in exactly the
same condition as this great battle ship.
They have weak spots in their systems
which they never suspect They pay no
attention TO alarming symptoms of i'll
health and seek no remedy. Some day
strain comes and they discover too late
that they are in no condition to fight
with disease They catch Il sudden cold
or chill and it speedily turns into pneu-
monia. They suffer from peculiar sensa-
tions or pains which eventually turn out
TO be the symptoms of Bright's disease
or congestion of the liver.
Where is the weak spot i'll your sys-
TEN? The chances are that you have
one which badly needs attention. Physi-
clans tell us that in almost every case,
the weak spot can be found in the liver
or kidneys. These great organs of the
body require constant watching. Our
climate, or diet, our habits of living
put them to a continual strain, and when
they Get out of order, the whole system
suffers.
If YOU are feeling tired, worn out,
gloomy, dull, dizzy and nervous, have
pains in the back and loins, suffer from
headaches, chilly sensations, biliousness
or are losing sleep and flesh you can
make up your mind that your liver and
kidneys are in need of treatment. You

spots There is only one way to cure
them. Something is needed to act on the
liver and kidneys where the weakness
exists. You cannot cure disease of these
great organs with pills or other cheap
remedies. Something is required TO
strike at the root of the ailment. There
is in fact only one remedy which is guar
anteed to cure every form of liver and
kidney complaint. That remedy is War
ner's Safe Cure which for twenty years
has stood the test and earned, as all are
aware. worldwide reputation. No
other remedy compares with it for regu-
lating the action of the liver and Kidneys,
driving out disease. building up the sys-
te~- and giving fresh life. Writing upon
the subject DIR. Gum says: I'm large

Mitch MOsley, a negro. Lynching has
been talked of from early morning, and
as night draws on Mosley's chances to
see another sunrise are slim indeed. At

kill Mrs. Monday if she made outcry.
I'm not afraid of you, you scoun

arose from the bed and deliberately re-
lighted the lamp. From mantel shelf
she took down a revolver. Mosley
hadn't the nerve to wreak his fiendish
desire. He turned and fled. and FIVE
shots out of Mrs Mondays revolver
took effect.

Winchesters in jiffy, and soon several
carloads were taken to the scene of the

that the negro fired at the street car
and the other that he fired into the
ground 1t is certain that he fired the
pistol. The crowd of whites increased
until two or three hundred We're present.
OF course, the negro had escaped. Then
u number of over-zealous red shirts pro-
ceeded to perforate the atmosphere with
Winchester bullets. Nobody was hurt,
and no attempt was made by the whites
TO hurt anybody. Excitement is now

ANSWER TO SPANISH CLAIMS.
An Hours Joint Session of the Peace
Commissioners Yesterday.

An Hours Joint Session of the Peace
Commissioners Yesterday.
Paris, November 9.-The American and
Spanish commissions held an hours joint
session this afternoon. When the meet
ing opened the Americans presented to
their Spanish colleagues the answer of
the United States to the claims submit
ted on Friday last in behalf of Spain.
The document was REPUTATION of the
Spanish allegation that because the
words possession" Ownership" OF
concession do not occur in the proto-
col clause touching upon the Philippine
Islands, the peace commissions have no
right to discuss them here, and that
even if they did so it must be in the
light of the alleged fact of an exterior
agreement that SPANS sovereignty
should not be impaired
The Americans also answered SPANS
claim for the restitution to her of public
money and customs collections taken by
United States officials since the capitu-
lation of Manila, and made reply to
SPANS claim for an indemnity on ac-
count of the alleged imprisonment by
United States authorities of Spanish
troops at Manila and for their subsequent
restraint from being of service to Spain
in the suppression of the instruction
and the preservation of property.
To these points the Americans had pre-
pared an exhaustive reply yesterday,
which, though not fully typewriter at
2 p. M, the time fixed for the meeting
of Tuesday. would have been submitted
to the Spaniards at p. m, yesterday
had it not been that the commissioners
defeated.

the service of the American rejOindcr
upon the Spanish commissioners without
u formal reading of the paper, which
Would occupy many columns in an ordi-
nary newspaper, and an adjournment

1t is quite safe to say that the Ameri-
cans have made no new propositions re-
garding the possession of the Phi lippines,
but have confined themselves TO discussion
of the proposals and assertions made by
Spain at the previous meetin5N Just
what were the terms of the American
rejoinder cannot. of course, be ascer-
tanned. But, despite persistent assertions
here to the contrary, there is no ground
for the Spanish contention that the Uni
ted States acQuiesced. at the signing of
the protocol, in some reservation by
Spain of her Philippine sovereignty
This utterly unfounded rumor is now
quite well understood to have come
from n high source not in sympathy with
