Emma was taken i'll. She was close
student and her work began to tell on her.
She grew weak, pale and nervous, and
complained of pains in her back, chest
and limbs. A few weeks passed ana she
grew worse. The doctor said she was a
victim of nervous prostration, and should
have been taken from school weeks ear

nerves were so tense that the least noise
irritated her and she had fever and
continual twitching in her muscles. The
symptoms were much like st. Vltus'

For many years the Dayton merchants
have been trying to force the Day
ton Coal and Iron Company to abolish
the ''punchout" system. Tickets called
''punchouts" are issued by this com
pany to their employees between pay
days, the result being that each miner

wages in the shape of groceries and
clothing from the company's store,
leaving him very little cash on payday
when his ''punchout" account is de-
Quoted from his cash wages. The mer-

business. Recently the Dayton mer.
chants bought nearly all the June issue
from the miners and furnace men, and
last week appeared before the cashier
of the Dayton Coal and Iron Company
and demanded cash on each and every
''punchout. The cashier refused their
demand, and now the merchants are
preparing to sue the Dayton Coal and
Iron Company for the face value of the

OFF SANTIAGO DE CUBA, via Kingston,
June 27.-It is believed Admiral Ger
vera contemplated making dash out
of the harbor last night. Consequently
Rear Admiral Sampson ordered extra
precautions to be taken. The torpedo
boats Ericsson and Porter stood very
close into the harbor all night, but no
ships came out. Shortly after midnight
the dynamite cruiser Vesuyius fired
three guncotton shells in the direction
of Morro Castle. They exploded on
the ridge behind the eastern hill. The
damage done is not known.

NIPPERs FOR BARBED WIRE.
That Is n Sore Need of the United States
Army in Cuba-OHicial Opinions as
to the Strength and Courage of
the Spaniards at Santiago.

WASHINGTON, June There is
one feature of the Santiago defenses
which does not yet seem to have been
| considered" said an army official to me
today, land that is the twelve lines of
barbed wire entanglement which sur
round the city"
This officer has explored the whole of
Cuba, and speaks from personal expe-
rience.
ITO attempt to clear these barriers
with guns" he continued, will result
only in throwing them down in way
to harass the men going over them.
This will be found a formidable OBJ
stacle when the attack is made. The
Cuban junta furnished their troops
with nipperswith which to force their
way through the trocha. With these
the wires were cut and the problem was
comparatively simple, The American
army today needs nippers more than

spaniards About Santiago.
The recent statement that in San
tlago province there are 40, 600 Spanish
troops was set at rest by this officer,
who says he knows there are not more
than 10000 Spanish regulars in the
may have been added, but it is thought
they are for the most part ineffective.
Yet the same authority does not under
rate the problem before Gen. Shafter,
for though the eight siege guns have
already been put ashore, yet there will
be much difficulty in getting them over
the way, as yet impossible for siege
guns, between Baiquiri and Santiago.
1t is the opinion of many experienced
army men that the United States army
will not be in a position to attack be-
fore Sunday or Monday next.
An officer, old in the navy, expressed
the opinion today that if Santiago were
stormed the so-called defenses would

the west, but, on the other hand, said
the army offer, it is more likely that
Gen. Shafter will lay siege and try the
starvation process.
There seems to be no doubt that
Porto Rico, instead of Havana, will
come after Santiago. For example,"
said the officer, ''it would take an army
100 days to safely march the 500 miles
over the almost impossible country be-
tween Santiago and Havana. There is
only one road out of Santiago fit for
marching, namely, for some twenty
miles to Guanajay, whence the road
forks respectively to Pinar del Rio and
to Mariel. The army would have,
therefore, traclzless, overgrown way
to within a very short distance of
Havana"

Tennessee Bankers.

The Tennessee Bankers Association

called to order by President Keith, of
Nashville. The attendance was good.
Rev. George Summey, of Clarksville, in
voked the divine blessing, and the well
come address was delivered by DR.. C.
W. Drake, of Monteagle. A felicitous
response was made by L. S. Parks, of
Union City. President Keith followed
with his annual address, and Secretary

noteworthy paper on ''Our Commercial
Prosperity" The annual report of Sec
retary Faxon showed a loss of three
members. The association decided to
ask the secretary of the treasury and

to designate some one city in Tennessee

ouinine is a Necessity.

WASHINGTON, June 25 Through the
foresight of Surgeon-General Stern
berg, of the army, the troops which
have gone to Santiago, as well as the
insurgents who may join the army, will
be well supplied with quinine, SO neces-
sal.y to health in tropical climates.
The need of this article of medicine is
brought forcibly to the attention of
the department in the telegram re-
ceived by Gen. Miles that one of the
needs of the insurgents is quinine. The
army is equipped with three months
supply of medicines, and of this
quinine forms good share.

FOR PORTO RICO.
An Army of Thirty Thousand to Be For
warded at Once After the Fall of
Santiago de Cuba.

Santiago de Cuba.
WASHINGTON, June 27.-Before the
end of the present week an army of
about IL 900 men, consisting of both
regulars and volunteers, will have en-
barl1ed from Tampa and Newport News
for Santiago.
Maj.-Gen. Miles will leave for Santi-
ago with one of the expeditions de-
parting this week. 1t is not his inten-
ton to interfere in any manner with
the campaign of Ma j.-Gen. Shafter, but
to supervise the embarkation of the
troops from Santiago that will go to
Porto Rico. Both the president and
Gen. Miles have the utmost confidence
in the ability of Ma. Gen. Shafter.
Maj.-Gen. Brooke has received orders
to take 200 men from Chickamauga
and to proceed to Tampa as soon as
Gen. Snyder's division leaves for San
tiago. The army to leave the United
States for Porto Rico simultaneously
with the army which leaves from San
tiago is being concentrated at Tampa.
Neither Fernandina nor Miami, Fla,
will be utilized as a place of embark
alton for the Porto Rican expeditions,
as at one time contemplated. Maj
Gen. Miles, Gen. Brooke and Maj. Gen.
Wilson will command the troops in
Porto Rico. Maj.-Gen. Coppinger will
not, in all probability, go to Porto
Rico, as has been the plan, but will go
to Cuba when the main invasion is made
in the fall.
The Porto Rican army will be over
whelming in strength. The Porto
Rican army, which will be embarked
from Cuba and Tampa Immediately
upon the surrender of the city of Santi-
ago, will consist of some of the finest
troops in the American army. 1t will
undoubtedly consist of more than $4,000
men.
If, as is now the plan, Maj.-Gen.
Brooke goes to Porto Rico, he will be
made military governor of the Island.

lynched at Mine Lick last week. He
was captured near Dayton and lodged
in jail at Cookeville, but was taken

guilt. The lynching was witnessed by
1900 people.
