TO FEED sPANIARDs.
British Vessels Garry Provisions and
Supplies to Cuba

New York, April 21.-The British
stamer Alvedene will sail today for
Havana, loaded with provisions for the
Spanish army in Cuba, and the Nor
wegian steamer Bergen will sail on
Saturday for the same port, with a like
cargo.
a well known fact that agents of the
Spanish government have been active
in buying provision in this city within
the last few weeks. Every vessel which
has sailed for Havana recently has
been loaded with corn, flour, beans, ba-
con, potatoes and lard, all for feeding
the Spanish soldiers.
The supplies are all shipped osten-
sibly to merchants in Havana but on
their arrival there they are taken in
charge by the Spanish quartermaster-
general Steamers which have left this
port since April 13 have landed enough
provisions in Havana to last the Span
ish soldiers and citizens for three
months. Add to this the cargoes of the
Alvedene and the Bergen and there will
be enough food in Havana to prevent
starvation for five months.
The cargo of the Orizaba, which SAIL
ed Saturday, was composed of 20 900
bushels of corn, 900 bushels of beans
and 1885 sacks of flour besides hun
dreds of cases of lard and barrels of
hams and bacon. The cargo of all pre-
ceding vessels was practically similar.
The Seneca sailed yesterday loaded
with provisions of a like nature. Her
cargo also consisted of food supplies,
Wnlcn Will De OF lneSllInaDle value to
the Spaniards when the Cuban ports
are blockaded. The Seneca'S cargo was
so great that after the hold was filed
the decks were piled with barrels and
boxes.
When the Alvedene sails today she
will carry a much larger cargo of pro-
visions than any of the other Cuban
bound steamers have taken. All yes
terday pier II, where she is being load
ed, was filled with trucks and drays
loaded with provisions, principally pO-
tatoeS, which were being transferred to
the vessels hold. The work of loading
the cargo went on rapidly so that the
steamer may be able to sail early to-
day.
The Bergen is a Norwegian fruiter
She was chartered to take the place of
the Seguranica, but that vessel also
will sail later, it is said, with a cargo
of fruit.
r. A. c. Smith, yho is in the office to
which one of the steamers belong. said:
we don't know where of our cargOeS
come or where they go. We are going
to sail our steamers to Havana right
along, as we are under mail contracts
carried OUT
Harry P. Booth, the president of one
of the lines interested, said: I'VE are
carrying goods to the same merchants
in Havana that we have been for years,
but I don't doubt the Spanish mer-
chants sell them to the soldiers. War
or no War,We expect to send our steam
ers to Havana, but all of them will
stop at Nassau for orders and in the
event of actual war they will be ca
bled not to stop at Havana"

WITHOUT PAIN.
A Medical Discovery That Efectually
Cures Piles in Every Form.

For many years physicians have ex-
perimented in vain, seeking a remedy
which would effectually cure piles and
other rectal troubles, without resorting
to a surgical operation. Many remedies
were found to give temporary relief,
but none could be depended upon to
make lasting, satisfactory cure
Within a recent period, however. a
new remedy, the Pyramid Pile Cure
has been repeatedly tested in hundreds
results.
The first effect of the Pyramid Pile
Cure is to instantly remove the pain
and irritation generally present and
from that time on the cure rapidly pro-
crosses and before the patient is hardly
aware of it he is entirely cured The
remedy seems to act directly on the
nerves and blood vessels of the parts
affected as it comes into direct contact
with them and sets up a healthy ac-
ton, which in a perfectly natural way
brings the parts to their normal condi-
fion.
The remedy does its work without
any pain or inconvenience to the suf-
ferer and is justly considered one of the
medicine
Piles is one of the most annoying and
o1ten times dangerous diseases with
which humanity is afflicted If neglect
ed II frequently developes into flstula
or some equally fatal or incurable trou-
pie, whereas by the timely use of this
simple but effective remedy no one
need suffer q single day from any form
OF piles unless they want to.
Inc pyramid Pile Cure is perfectly
harmless, containing no mineral poisons
ana Is also very reasonable in price. 1t
rs sold in drug stores everywhere at so
cents per package The manufacture
Srs OF the remedy are the Pyramid
Drug Co, of Marshall, Mich. who have
paced this excellent preparation before
ene public only after giving it thorough
sno repeated tests in the hands of re-
RRueaple physicians. The results in hun
:. us us, OF cases have convinced us that
~ "an not disappoint you.

'tSince Europe is powerless to re-es-

before the last knights we are to see

Royal-Player.

Miss Kate E. Player and Mr.. Charles
P. Royal of Portsmouth, Virginia, were
married Wednesday morning at IL
O'Clock at the home of Miss Players
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. John E. Player.
on Topeka avenue, Dean Sykes officiat-
ing.
The marriage was a great surprise to
the friends of Miss Player as they did
not know that she contemplated taking
such step though she and Mr.. Royal
have been engaged for three years.
Miss Player has been a student at
Bethany college and she wished to
graduate before being married, as
next year would have been the last
year, but about a week ago Mr.. Royal
came to Topeka and urged that the
marriage take place at once. Mr.. Player
was out of town and as he would not re-
turn until last Saturday his daughter
would not consent until she had his
permission. The arrangements were
all made last Saturday but were kept
so quiet that they did not become
known until the young couple had left
town.
Miss Player was a charming young
woman and will be greatly missed from
Topeka.
Mr.. and Mrs. Royal left on the
O'Clock train for Chicago after which
they will go to Portsmouth, Va, where
Mr.. Royal is the master mechanic of the
Seaboard Air Line.

in the trial that Hamble was in the
least guilty. Osbon has served three

made a few months ago to secure a
pardon for him, but it was opposed by
citizens of Jackson county, and the
