A CASE OF SUFFERING.
Which Disclosed a Case of Something
 Much Worse

A pitifu case Of suffering was re- ported to the authorities yesterday. Some time ago young man named Thomas B. Wood, a consumptive, be- came so helpless that the board of su- pervisors allowed him a small sum mon'lhly. He procured cheap lodging at the College place, a community of the cheapest of cheap lodging houses underone management within a stones throw of the Central school building. Yesterday morning it was reported to Dr. Dameron. the county physician, that Wood was dying. He went to see him and was shocked less at the condition of the sick man than his . aroundings. his utter destitution and
 of attention. The room in which
 N was a mere hole, Sx10 fec,
 of rough boards. Economy
 practiced in the construc-
 leaving wide cracks between
 fds, for strips of air cost much
 an even cheap lumber The
 lings of this hole were inde-
 o5bly mean and cheap DWood's condition, the doctor be- |1ieved, had been intensified by his en- Rironmen1 and he believed tha; an- her night spent there would be the Ea.h of him. Though it was doubt nl whether he would survive re- Imoval to the hospital il was decided to take him there at once. D ath on the TO ad would be a luxury in com parison with lingering life where he lay.
 The physician made 2 startling dis coyery while he was at the College Place. The lodging house is not -eaHnected wiih sewer, but a cess pool has been dug for the reception of all the refuse from the lodging house of sky rooms. The csss-pcol is situated within eight feet of the northern bank of the canal, SO that so far as sanitary purposes are con- cerned the refuse matter might as well be emptied directly into the canal. In- deed, such an arrangement would be better for those living in the immedi- ate community and but little worse tor the many families below town who in the absence of wells and cisterns draw their supplies of warer for drinking and cooking purposes from the canal.
 The city authorities are powerless f0 act in this aggravated case, for the lodging house and it's cess-p aol are just outside the city limits. The matter will be brought before the board of supervisors at an early date.

SCr0fuIa

Makes life misery to thousands of people. It manifests itself in many different ways, like goitre, swellings, running sores, boils, salt rheum and pimples and other eruptions. Scarce ly man is wholly free from it, in some form. It clings tenaciously until the last vestige of scrofulous poison is eradicated by Hoods Sarsaparilla, the
 One True Blood Purifier.
 Thousands of voluntary testimonials tell of suffering from scrofula, often inherited and most tenacious, positive ly, perfectly and permanently cured by

| LONDON, May 4-The Bruss els cor.
respondent of the Daily Chronicle says
Don Carlos, the pretender, IS much ag.
itated by private kilograms he has re.
ceived today from Madrid. A Spanish
dIplomatist of high position said to me
today: "They are practically in a state
of revolution, and it is the beginning OF
the end of the regency. The queen
regent may make a final effort in favor
of her son, but he will never come to
the throne"
LONDON, May A special dlspatch b
from Madrid says the internal situation
is causing the Spanish government
almost as much uneasiness as the
external. Demonstrators Monday night
openly showed revolutionary tenden-
cies, cheering Weyler and demanding
Sagasta's resignation.
A total cabinet crisis is imminent,
and will probably end in considerable
modification of the present govern
ment. 1t may possibly lead to the
formation of national ministry under
presidency of Marshal Campos. Par
Lament is certain to be closed soon.
1t is probable that the censorship
hides the real gravity of the situation

martial law has been proclaimed in
other big cities. Energetic measures
on the part of the government es-
pecially If a scapegoat can be found,
may stave off a popular Outburst, but

ugly temper on the part of the pop

From the chsrts in the possession OF
the officials of the war department they
are led to believe that Commodore
Dewey was enabled by sharp work to
entirely escape the fire Of the shore
batteries at the entrance to Manila bay.
Those batteries are manned by heavy
guns, which are pointed seaward and
which, by the construction of the forti-
fications, cannot be turned toward the
inner harbor. Under cover of the
darkness the American fleet is believed
to have passed these batteries and to
have got beyond them before a shot
was fired. Once past the shore bat
teries the American ships were safe
from attack from that quarter and the
silencing of their great guns would be
an easy matter. There was great re-
joIcing in naval circles at this s'sharp
Yankee trick 1t is evident from the
Madrid dispatches that there was cor
responding disappointment. among the
SpanIards at the success of the maneu-
yer, for great dependence had been
placed upon these shore batteries as Il
defense against an invading feet.

The Kansas City Star of Tuesday has
u very patriotic editorial in regard to
the United States as a naval and mill
tary power, and says we are able 10
take care of ourselves, and will not be
bluffed by foreign threats. Yet the Star
is a gold bug organ, and is afraid we
cannot attend to our own financial
affairs unless England and France help
US. Out with such rot. We can attend
10 our financial as well as to our mill
tary and naval affairs. We are not a
nation of fools, though some of our
leaders are dreadfully stupid.
