comes so soon to this tragic end
If men would only take the most COM
mon sense precautions against the en-
croachments of ill-health, there would be
fewer houses of mourning, and fewer
women left alone almost helpless before
the battle of life is half over. A mans
liver and stomach are twin machines that
work together, either to make OF uumake.
If they work wrong, they deplete and
poison his blood. Impure and impover-
5shed blood mean sickness and death. If
they work right, they purify and enrich
the blood. A man whose blood is rich and
pure, and whose liver is active cannot well
be unhealthy. Headaches, biliousness, in
digestion and costiveness, which men gem
orally disregard, are Natures warnings
liver, IS working against, instead of for
cry is the best medicine to use under these
circumstances. 1t creates appetite, cor
reefs all disorders of the digestion, invigor-
ates the liver and fills the arteries with
rich red, healthy blood AS an invigorat-
ing, restorative tonic, it is far superior to
all the malt extracts. 1t Is the great blood
maker and flesh builder. It does not build
siCkly, 6abby fat as cod liver oil does, but

ENDED HER LIFE.
Mrs. Nettie Galley of Greenwood Street
 Found Dead in Her Bed.

Mrs. Nettie Galley of Greenwood Street
 Found Dead in Her Bed.
 Yesterday, some time during the day. Kettle, the wife of George G. Galley, a bricklayer, of 135 Greenwood street, committed suicide. She was twenty four years old and had been in poor health for some time past. She had suffered a great deal fom nervous pros tration. Dr. J. B. Sayles has been her attending physician.
 When her husband left home in the morning her condition was not any worse than usual and he had no thought of any such occurrence. At noon the neighbors saw her lying on her bed apparently asleep and thought nothing of it, as she was accustomed to sleeping during the day. She re- mained there until her husband came home. Going up to her bed he called her, but as she did not answer he rais- ed her up and found her dead A bot tie which in the morning was half full of chloraI was lying upon the table empty. She was in the habit of using chIoral to calm her nerves and to pro- duce sleep. She had been in a despon- dent frame of mind, due to her nervous condition, ever since last April and had taken the contents of the bottle while partially deranged. She had a brother who committed suicide some time ago.
 Dr. White, the medical examiner, was called and found that it was a case of suicide.

It would be impru- dent to attack Havana at present, and even if this must be done, new troops should be employed to do the job. Of course we can take it, but I'd prefer to see the attempt made in October in stead of at present. Porto Rico, at tackled by new troops, is in my opinion the best military move to be made"

REUNION AT CoMPoUNCE.
Fifth and Twentieth Connecticut Will
 Meet August 9.

Fifth and Twentieth Connecticut Will
 Meet August 9.
 Arrangements have been completed for the reunion of the Fifth and Twen- tieth Connecticut regiments at Com bounce, which will be held at that re- sort August g. The Fifth has held it's reunion on this date for years, that be- ing the anniversary of the battle of Cedar Mountain in which the Fifth took a distinguished part. The two regi- ments were in the Georgia campaign together and united in the erection of the state monument in the Chicka- mauga-Chattanoog National Park. The monument was placed in position last year by Stephen Maslen of this city, who designed it. After it's erec- tion last year the two commands de- cided to unite in the reunion for this season. Lieutenant Walter Burns of the Fifth who resides in Boston, was placed at the head of the committee with Major E. V. Preston of Hartford, who for months during the civil war was in recruiting service in New Ha- ven, having an office in the Adelphi building. Major Preston has completed the plans for the reunion, and an occa- sion of great interest is expected.
 The president of the Fifth, who will preside at the meeting of the two regi- ments is George A. Case of this city, who was elected at the annual reunion in Middletown last August. President Case is the half-brother of ex-Alderman Horace I. Case of Hartford. He was born in Burlington. For number of years he resided in Hartford and at one time was a member of the Hart ford police force. He enlisted in the Fifth from this city and was severely wounded at Cedar Mountain, August g, 1862. He was discharged from the service October 23, 1862, in consequence of his wounds, which incapacitated him for the service. He was formerly a member of Robert o. Tyler post. The monument of the two regiments is located at Orchard Knob. The state of Wisconsin has just dedicated mon- ument on the park with imposing cere- monies.

ouR rRoops AT NrANrIc.
Interesting JOttings by New Haven
 Man at the Camp,

Man at the Camp.
 Camp Haven, July 15.-The First regiment arrived from Maine at 4 o'clock this afternoon, making a total of about 5000 men at this post. It is expected that the First regiment, as we'll as the Light artillery, will stay here only about ten days, as the equip ment for the latter body is on the way and should arrive within a week. Some change in the number of men consti- tuting battery A will be necessitated by the fact that the four guns now here will constitute the battery, in stead of six as originally intended. Four horses will be used instead of six on the cannon and caissons, so that of the ninety-four horses that were to come only twenty-five of that number will arrive.
 Yesterday a government inspector visited the camp, examining battery A in connection with the rest of the post.
 Captain Hounce, who has been con- fined to his home in Guilford by sick ness returned to take command of his men.
 Edward Marshall, Yale '99S., so well known for his football ability on the varsity squad last fall, has been ap- pointed land sergeant, an office which gives him charge of the horses. The office is merely nominal, the pay is the same as the privates, the office being to give him power over his men. The office was given Marshall for his abili- ty. in training raw recruits into skilled horsemen.
 The second platoon of battery A has been gladdened with the presence of two colored cooks from New Haven. The latter receive a bonus from the members of the company to ensure better table
 The cook of the third platoon of the same battery took a vacation yester- day, going to New London to spend some of the government money In consequence the members of that plat oon went without any breakfast We'd nesday morning. At noon the same state of affairs existed So George Roberts, who has been through an In- dian campaign and possesses some knowledge as to how potatoes and cof- fee should be served, rid himself of all superf1uous clothing and started in to feed the hungry campaigners. By the time an inviting repast had been prepared and served the men of his own platoon, a horde of empty looking soldiers had gathered by the fire. As | there was an abundance, they were in- vited to set down and eat. This they did without waiting for second invita- tion. At the conclusion of the meal all present joined in cheer for Cook Rob- erts. The memory of that meal will last for some time with those who were | present

ROMANTIC POKER ROCK.
How Hartford Lady's Story Initiated
 Westbrook Romance.

How Hartford Lady's Story Initiated
 Westbrook Romance.
 Westbrook, July 15.-All the summer resorts are supposed to have more or less romance connected with them, for it is at these places that the much dis cussed summer fiirtations with their accompaniment of hammock and clasp ed hands are supposed to exist It is, however, undoubtedly d1Ie to Mrs. Jo- sephine R. Baker of Hartford that Westbrook first became generally known as the abode of romance. About the time that the charms of this beach first began to attract occasional camp ing parties and the late John A. Post erected a small building on the site of Cooley's hotel wherewith to dispense comfort to the inner man, Mrs Baker then Miss Josephine Ruggles, contrib uted romantic tragedy story to the New York Ledger-'Did They Hang the Wrong Man-A Legend of Poker Rock which created great interest in Westbrook and romantic Poker Rock" which still stands near the old road to Clinton and which at that time was visited by people from all over the country. The story was founded on facts, and the great crevice which di- vides the rock in half into which the body of the murdered man in the story was thrown is still viewed with shud- der by many Mrs Rakar ic ,,ouy nra pairing a series of sketches for the Con- necticut Quarterly on this rock and it's early legend which will shortly appear and will doubtless revive interest among lovers of the romantic in a TO- mance-producing town which has al- most ceased to be romantic.

LESSONS IN NAVAL BATTLES.
English Commendasi0n for the Good
MnrISsmnnship of Ameri-
can Gunners.

The lessons to be drawn from the
Spanish-American sea fights are not
clear, satisfactory and conclusive.
With the barely possible exception of
the sinking of the 11errimac, as sug-
gested by Lieut.. Hobson, the torpedo
has played no part in the naval engage
ments, and oFramming there has not
been any. 1t was even so at Yalu, and
throughout the war between China and
Japan, says the London Shipping
World. But are we satisfied that if the
or rams by the Americans there would
not have been fairly realized some of
the great expectations concerning one
or both of these instruments of de-
struction? 1.-THE torpedo boat destroy
ers foundered," said the brave Span
ish Admiral Cervera, in his report to
Gen. Blanco. Yes; and the laundering
was brought about by the good practice
of the gunners of the Gloucester. a
smart armed yacht. Cervera's ships
were faster than those of Sampson, but
they did not get away; 19-inch guns can
hurl many tons of shot and shell into
the enemy before the advantage in
speed for few knots an hour will avail
for the emergency The effect of arma-
Qent on armor is not yet accurately
ascertained. Several points have, how
ever, been made clear by the naval en-
gagements, namely: Q) That modern
shells readily set fire to the woodwork
Of warships and that, therefore, wood
must be avoided or made freproof;
ca that speed is relatively more i'm
portant from strategical than from
fighting considerations; (3) that in a
fair fight superiority of craftsmanship
and quick firing means victory, and 90

WESTERN IIAND BOOMs.

and 1890, varying in different sections
there grew up in Minnesota, the Da-
kotas, Nebraska, Kansas, Texas, in adj
the states and territories further West,
and in some parts of Iowa, Wisconsin
and Missouri, a fever of speculation in
real estate which affected the whole
population, destroyed all true sense OF
value, created an enrmous volume of
fictitious wealth, infected with it's poi
son all the veins and arteries of bust
ness, and swelled the cities to abnor-
NAL proportions says Henry ]. Fletch-

pie who's savings were thus hazarded;
every Western concern had its Clients,
sometimes by the thousands, scattered
throughout the cities, towns and rural
districts OF the East. The rapid de-
velopment of the resources Of the West
lent plausibility TO every reckless
prophecy Of higher prices; the contin-
ued inundation of Eastern money seek
ing chances of speculation falsiied the
predictions of the foreboding.
When the elimination was reached
there was no explosion-the region az
