THANKSGIVING AT SANTIAGO.
The Day Was Practically Unobserved by
 Cubans, But Americans Celebrate.

Santiago, November 24.-Santiago today celebrated its first Thanksgiving since the American occupation. All the ships in the harbor were decorated with bunting and the officers entertained friends at dinner. The day was practically unobserved by the Cubans, except those employed in the gov ernment offices. Some of the officers sta- tioned at Guantanamo and Manzanillo spent the day with friends here. All the regiments celebrated as well possible under the circumstances. Turkeys were few, but hopes are entertained by the Americans that their friends in the north will ship turkeys to them for their Christ mas dinner.
 The Cuban papers make practically no mention of the day.
 Fl Porvenir prints two-column article with reference to the intention of a colored preacher of Topeka, Kan, to bring thirty families of negroes and establish town in the highlands above Santiago, which shall be known as Topeka. The paper demands that the people boycott the Yankee negroes asserting that they are frequently guilty of horrible crimes, and that the southern states, anxious to be rid of their colored population, will endeavor to send them to Cuba.
 The paper maintains that the Cubans have right to regulate immigration into athe island, that they object to the negroes and that they will not have them.

 George w. Roosevelt, United States con- sul to Brussels, Belgium: Stuart's Dyspesia Tablets safe, pleasant to take, convenient to carry, give keen appetite, perfect diges- ton.
 Mr. w. D. TomI.n, mechanical engineer, Duluth, Minn: One box of Stuart's Dys- pepsla Tablets has done it's work, and l am again gaining flesh and strength.
 o. E. Ransom Baskerville, Kl.: was distressed and annoyed for two years with throwing up food, often two or three times a day; had no certainty of retaining meal if ate one. Four boxes of the tablets from my druggist have fully cured me. I find them pleasant to take, convenient to carry.
 Rev. c. D. Brown, Mondovi, Wis: The effects of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is simply marvellous; quite hearty dinner of broiled beefstake causes no distress since I begun their use.
 Over six thousand people in the state of Michigan alone in 1894 were cured of stom- ach troubles by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.

ASSAULTED BY GIRLS.
Miss Nora Bitner Badly Beaten by Three Young Amazons.

Pittsburg November 24.-Miss Nora Bit ner, highly respected young lady of AL legheny, was beaten so badly this afternoon by three girls, none of whom are over 15 years of age, that she will probably die. Her assailants, Mamie Wright, Sophia Mickle and Maria Bennett, are in jail.
 Miss Bitner, with a young lady compan- ion was out walking and in passing a group of some young girls she made a jocu- lar remark concerning the party where upon one of the youngsters grabbed her by the hair and pulled her to the ground. While prostrate Miss Bitner was kicked on the head and beaten into insensiblity.
 Her companion was unable to protect her, and a rescue was only effected when two men came upon the scene. The physicians attending Miss Bitner say her skull is frac- tured and blood clot has formed on her brain. Her recovery is doubtful.

Huntsville, November 24.--(Special.) 1.-The second days session of the North Alabama conference was devoted to interesting dis cussions. The first subject of the day was a discussion of the work of the Sabbath League of America, led by Dr. Thompson of Atlanta.

 Bishop Holsey addressed the conference in regard to the interests of the college for ngroes established at Augusta, Ga, by the Methodists, and he was accorded the privi- lege of taking up collection for the col- lege
 The committee appointed to investigate the character of Rev. J. w. Shoemaker, of Scottsboro, reported that in the absence of evidence the matter should be left to the presiding elder of the Huntsville district. To this the conference demurred and ap- pointed another Investigating committee, instructing it to make report tomorrow.
 Bishop Key preached a strong sermon at Ii o'clock. His leading thought was the guiding hand of God, which leads his peo- pie at all times.
