A Critical Time During the
Battle of Santiago.
TnentS

SICK OR WELL. \ RUSH NIGHT AND DAY.
The Packers at the battle Of Santiago de
Cuba were all Heroes. Their heroic
efforts in getting ammunition and ra-
tions 10 the front saved the day,
p. E. BUTLER, Of Pack-train No. 3,
writing from Santiago de Cuba, on July
23d. says: all had diirrhOea in more
or less violent form. and when we landed
we had no time 10 see a doctor, for it was
a case OF rush and rush night and
day. TO keep the troops supTlied with
ammunition and ratiOns, but thanks TO
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy, we were able to keep
at w"rk and keep our health; in fact, /
sincerely believe that at one critical time
this medicine was the indirect saviour of
our army, for if the packers had been un-
able to work there would have been no
way of getting supplies to the front.
There were no roads that A wagon train
could use. Ny comrade and myself had
the good fortune to lay in supply of
this medicine for our pack-train before
we left Tampa, and know in four cases
it actually saved life"
The above letter was written to the
manufacturers OF this medicine the Cham
berlain Medicine Co, Oes Moines, Iowa.

A WORLDS BONDAGE.
WHY THE GOLD STANDARD is
ADVOCATED HERE.
England, Having Become Great Creditor
Nation Drawing Vast Annuitiss from
All Other Nations, Wants Dear Money

England with the accumulated
wealth of centuries has the whole
world in bondage. I'm that little book
OF interest tables" said Napoleon,
lies great fact concealed which
threatens to devour the world" There
are some Americans who contend that
We are rich enough to become money
lenders to the world like John Bull,
and therefore we must have the gold
standard, like England, says Eugene
B. Beebe. Yes, and many Of our citi-
zens who fled from the misery and
oppression of the gold standard in Eu-
rope advocate that system which has
reduced the masses of the people OF
England and Europe to hopeless pow
erty, misery and degradation. They DO
mot consider that this is a new coun-
try and needs cash legal tender money
for the development of its vast re-
sources without further bondage to
Europe. Wall street will find by fur-
Their sad experience that the capacity
of this country for cash legal tender
money is greater than John Bull can
supply. With our enormous indebted
ness abroad the gold we import is sim
ply borrowed and when we cannot Dor
row more to keep it and it is with
drawn, panic follows. 1t is the IL
resistible logic of events. The reason
that free silver shows such vltanty
is that the gold standard Is imprac-
ticable and this Is shown by the appre-
citation of gold. This great central TACT
stands up like the rock of Gibraltar.
Mr.. Carlisle, before he was seduced
by the money power, said that reduc-
ing the world to the gold basis was
like destroying by fire half the prop
erty of the people. The equilibrium
between gold and silver must be re-
stored, for now gold buys too much
and silver bullion sells for too little.
1t is fate, it is the logic of events, 1t
is the decree of the Almighty. The
attempt to kill free silver is like try
ing to turn back Niagara into the
lakes. 1t cannot be further exploited
without panics and misery, and then
it will not succeed.
In New England the opponents of
the gold standard are increasing in
numbers, as shown by the election of
Mr.. Thayer to congress in the Worces-
ter district. The manufacturers and
employees see that the yardstick Is
frightening and have learned the in
stability Of the gold standard. They
know by bitter experience that the
raw cotton when made into clothes
fails to buy as many 200-cent dollars
as were paid for it.

The time has been whom the news
that human being had starved to
death in America would have sent a
thrill of horror through the national
heart. Of late our feelings have be-
come calloused on this subject. So
many cases of starvation and suicide
have sprinkled the trail of these bitter
wears that it takes an unusually tragic
episode of this sort to move us. But
sometimes there are instances so I'M
utterably pitiful that they force them
selves upon the jaded sympathies Ola
people stated with spectacles of suffer-
| ing and will not be denied.
| What do the comfortable philoso-
pliers who hold that everything is for
| the best in the best of all possible
worlds think of the fate of Mamie Nc
Carthy, starved to death at seventeen
in the richest city of America? None
of the customary apologies for the
misery that shadows our civiliza-
ton are available here. There was no
question of drunkenness or crime, in
volving the innocent in the retribution
of the guilty. Here was a deserving
and formerly a happy and reasonably
prosperous family brought down
through no fault Of its own. The
father had been a lawyers clerk,
earning comfortable living. He died,
and the illness of his widow in the
course of years absorbed the provision
he had left for his family. With the
mothers death the orphaned brother
and sister were left to make their own
way. AS long as the boy could find
work they were Independent, but for
seven months he had been trudging
the streets searching vainly for
chance to make use of his. industry.
Reduced at last to sharing the crusts
picked out Of garbage barrels, the girl
delicately nurtured, proud and sensi-
tive, faded away and at last she died.
Where were the charity organizers
when this tragedy was consummated
the. organizers who protested last
winter against the informal relief OF
distress on the ground that they were
capable of taking care of all the suffer-
ing in the city? And what lessons will
the smug economists who teach that
our present social system is incapable
of Improvement deduce from it? Re-
membering what Mamie McCarthy's
father was dozen years ago, the com
fortably situated professional man who
thinks of the possible future of his own
tenderly guarded child may reflect,
with a shock, that perhaps the reform
of social conditions may not be mat
ter exclusively in the interest of the
degraded proletariat after all.-New
York Journal.

gency, are required to work in excess

per hour as for day work, with so per
cent additional"
l have issued the following regula-

clauses A and c, and for clause A sub
stitute the following:

of extraordinary emergency, in excess

To remain young woman must keep
her joints timber; if neglected they be-
come painful and stiff. Women groan
with rheumatic pains when, if they ex
ercised properly, rheumatism would be
unheard of. Women sit by fire and
SILVER with cold when, if they en-
couraged gymnastics, the blood would
circulate vigorously through the body.
The following four simple exercises
will greatly help TO develop and pre-
serve physical symmetry:
1. Stand erect, with hands out
ders, and slowly raise yourself on your
toes as far as possible. Retain this
position for an instant, and then sink
back on to the entire foot. Do this
twenty times a day at first, and in
crease each day to reasonable limit.
2. Place the hands on the hips, and,
resting all the weight of the body on
the right foot, slowly raise the left leg,
and extend it in front of the body.
Then bend at the knee, pointing the
toe downward and bringing the foot
up. Repeat this ten times at first.
Then stand on the left foot and re-
peat the exercise in reverse.
3. Stand erect and lean over at the
hips without bending the knees and try
to touch the floor with the fingers. Day
by day you will come nearer and near
err the floor. This exercise will make
the body supple, and strengthen the
back, and will encourage grace.
4. Extend the right arm, and plac-
ing the left on the hip, bend to right
side as far as possible, and then re-
verse the exercise, which should be
repeated ten times at first, and, like
all the others, increased from day to
day as much as circumstances will per-
nit. This is an excellent general gym
nastic. No woman should indulge
any exercise to such an extent that
even the slightest strain is possible.
Fifteen minutes day spent in exer-
else at home should result in muscular
development, and greatly help to re-
tain health.

1t Is the act of forming organs or
instruments of action. In entering the
field of labor 1t matters not whether
by brain or hand, it is absolutely nee
essary for all wage-workers to band
themselves together for self protection,
and by so doing they protect one an
other. All reforms that have been ac
complished has been done through Or
CARNATIONS and unity of action, conse-
quently it behooves the mechanic and
laborer of this country to wake up to
the fact that he is losing sight of his
own interests, by allowing himself to
be hoodwinked by those who seek to
deprive him of his inaliable right to
life, liberty and the pursuit of happi-
ness. The wage-workers of this or
any other country can not accomplish
anything individually, it must be by
concerted action, therefore it is neces-
sary for them to organize and edu-
cate, and not pass their lives in forg-
ing chains for themselves and then
complain of weaving them. Signed, A
Leather Worker.

A Fable with a Moral.

One of the coasters at the Michigan
Federation Of Labor convention told
the following story:
A farmer leaning over his fence one
day, wandering how he ever should
harvest the great field of corn that lay
back Of him. when he saw mule
leisurely strolling up the highway and
lazily cropping the grass that grew
in abundance at the roadside.
"My friend" said the farmer, "get
into the harness and help me get my
crop into the barn, and will give you
all the corn that you can eat the days
that you work"
But how long shall have to work
each day." quizzed the careful animal.
Fourteen hours" said the farmer.
"Tut, tut" replied the mule. but
can get all the grass can eat in day
by working seven hours on this fertile
roadside"
"Pshaw," retorted the farmer, begin
ming to get angry at being thwarted in
his purpose, your father was glad to
work for me sixteen hours of the day,
and here you are complaining against
two hours less than that number"
TOO true" quoth the mule, "but you
must remember my father was, a Jack
ass"
