And It's
Shelling

The behavior Of our men-of-war in
action at the bombnrdment Of Matanzas'
forts was splendid. The news got from
the flagship that tho men were just as
cool as though they were ut target prac'
tice. This was also true of tho Ic,isan
and tho Cincinnati.
II is also true, however. that tho men
on the Puritan and Cincinnati wopt
during ten minutes when the New York
was engaged alone, while they had TO
wait for orders. Then, whilo the Puri-
tan engaged and there still came no or.
ders for the Cincinnati to fire, the grief
Of Captain CheSter's crow was almost
unbearablo.
Finally. when the Cincinnati got or.
ders to engage, she steamed at first
broadside on and then took position
where the Rubaloaya batteries could not
strike her. She fairly epfiladed the lat
teries, and her men exclaimed with ev-
cry shot, ''Takc that for the Maine.''
There wss no rejoicing, no cheering
Everything was carried on with TN ear.
nestness of purpose which showed "A sen-
sation Of which JOY was not part.
The men felt the pleasure Of conllict
,pulsating in their veins. but not the
pleasure of killing for killings sake.
Too much cannot be- said OF the gun
merry oil the men Oh tho ships. nor can
too much be said In praise OF tho disci-
pline which prevailed.
Just here should like to tell tho
story Of two cadets Their names are
Boone and Pettinsill. They were grad
uated from the Annapolis Naval acad-
emy ahead Of time, about April !, and
hurried off to the flagship.
Cadet Pettingill took alarm at the
prospect of the New York being ordered
out of these waters. and fearing that be
would then miss the fighting he asked
to be transferred TO the Puritan Cadet
Boone remained on board the New
York. and it was he who fired the first
shot in the recent bonn mbardment. Cadet
Pettinaill was in the fight, too, on board
the Puritan, ana had the pleasure Of
sending the shell into the Spanish bat
teries.
They were both very hot sswater ba-
bies. !" as their friend Captain Goodrell
Of the marines calls them, but Cadet
Boone Is the happier.

destroyed by an attack in force. To be
successfully defended the Spaniards
must have recourse to their favorits
weapon. the submarine mine. No shots
were fred from the shore from larger
guns than inch. A very few shells
were fred.
Most of the missiles were solid shot
and came from guns Of or 8 inch cal
iber. At the time the New York began
to fire the Spaniards were mounting
some 10 inch cannon made at the Hon.

There are more negro trlmmers
among the negro race than any
race in the world. That old slav-
cry idea of telling or informing on

only among the ignorant negro, hut
Won will find it among the so-call-
ed educated negro. The moment
a negro goes into a department. he

loses all the manhood he ever had

once possessed with has left him.

There is only one way to cure deaf.
ness, and that is bv constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
lnfiamed condition of the mucous lin
ing OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
TO its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inhamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces.

catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

WHAT NEXT?

Since the return of President
Mckinley from the South, the ex
confederates have taken another
turn. A lecturer in the city OF
Richmond, Va, in speaking OF
rather where he attempted to speak
of the valor of the eolored soldiers
at Santiago, he was Missed and
not allowed to proceed. We should
like to know what the next move
will be to suppress the negro OF
any honorable mention of HIM?
1t is only a question of time be-
fore this race question will have to
come to an issue.

WHERE ARE THE REPU B.
LICANS9

Recorder Ii. 2. Cheatham, has
appointed R. ". Thompson, the
Indianapolis democrat, who was
forced to take ticket of leave man
from the Government Printing
Office. 1t is very strange that
among all the colored republicans
from Indiana, North Carolina or
the District of Columbia, not one
could be found to be appointed to
the place to which r. w. Thomp-
son was appointed. There are
hundreds of colored republicans
walking the streets of Washington
who were dismissed from the pub.
lie service when democrat negroes
came to this city under the
last democratic administration.
The BEE doesn't object to a man
being a democrat, but The BEE
does object to the appointment OF
such a negro democrat to office
as r. W. Thompson, where there
are so many more deserving col
ored republicans. Are there NJ
republicans in indianapolis +? There
seems to be no show for republi
can negroes even under re
publicans.

There Is no reason whv her income
should not be thIrty-hve or forty doi-
