A CRITICAL TINE
During the Battle
Of Santiago.
SICK OR WEI !.
RUSH NIGHT A n p
DAY.

The Packers at the Battle Of
Santiago de Cuba were all
Heroes. Their Heroic Ell
forts in Getting Ammunition
and Rations to the Front
Saved the Day.
P. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 3,
writing from Santiago, De Cuba, on Jnly
23d, says: ''We all had diarrhoea in
more or less violent form, and when we
landed we had no time to sec q doctor,
for it was case of rush and rush night
and day to keep the troops supplied with
ammunition and rations, but thanks to
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy, we were able to keep at
work and keep our health; in fact, sim
cerely believe that at one critical time
this medicine was the indirect saviour
of our army, for if the packers had been
unable to work there would have been
no way of getting supplies to the front.
There were no roads that a wagon
train could use. My comrade and my
self had the good fortune to lay in sup
ply of this medicine for our pack-train
before we left Tampa and I know in
four cases it ABSOLUTELY saved life"
The above letter was written to the
manufactures of this medicine, the
Chamberlain Medicine Co., Des Moines,
Iowa. For sale by all Druggist.

FORT MEADE MUST STAY.
St. Paul Chamber of Commerce So
Decides in Resolution Adopted
by That Body,

The st. Paul chamber of commerce
yesterday placed itself on record as OPP
posed to the proposition recently made
by the government to abolish Fort
Meade as a military post, and a COM
mittee of five was appointed to inves-
tigate the matter and bring it to the
attention of the Minnesota senators
and representatives in Washington.
The question was brought up at the
regular weekly meeting Of the chamber
by R. A. Kirk, who offered the follow
ing resolution:
Whereas, In the recent Encouragement of
the military departments of the United
States the post of Fort Mead. S. D.. has
been readded to the department of Dakota,
and
Whereas. The post is very important to
the people of the Northwest, and it is re-
ported that the United States government
-contemplates abandoning the same,
Therefore, resolved, That special COM
mittee of five be appointed to Investigate
and report, at as early date as practicable,
the facts in regard to the maintenance Of
this important post in the department of
Dakota
Mr. Kirk said that the threatened
abandonment of Fort Meade was a Sc
rious thing for st. Paul, because it was
dependent upon Fort Smelling for it's
supplies. The item was a large one,
and should not be allowed to be taken
away without a protest.
Secretary A. S. Tallmadge outlined
the history of Fort Meade and detailed
the various changes that have been
made in its assignments. 1t has been
shifted from one department to an
other and it has been difficult to keep
track of it. 1t has recently been re-
stored to the department of Dakota,
and he hoped it would remain in this
department and be continued as mil
itary post.
w. H. Lightner, who presided, ap-
pointed, as a committee to look after
the matter, R. A. Kirk, 7. L. Schur-
meier, E. B. Dahlgren, w. A. Scott,
and Kenneth Clark.
A. S. Fairchild's Cuban resolution,
which was made the order for the day,
was laid on the table after a brief de-
bate The resolution was as follows:
Resolved, That the st. Paul chamber Of
commerce hereby expresses its deliberate
conviction that the time has come when the
government of these United States should
peacebly, If 1t can, forcbly, If it must, put
an end to the government Of Spain in the
Island of Cuba.
Mr. Fairchild delivered short speech
in support Of the resolution. He related
the history of the Cuban people under
the Spanish rule, and said it was time
for this country to interfere and put
a stop to the disgraceful crimes that
had stained the history Of Spain in the
island.
The resolution was opposed by R. A
Kirk, who said that the Cuban question
was in the hands of the president, and
he should not be embarrassed by any
action of the st. Paul chamber of COM
merce.
At his suggestion the resolution was
laid on the table.
