ScrOfl11a to
Consumption.

Any one predisposed to Scrofula can
never be healthy and vigorous. This
faint in the blood naturally drifts into
Consumption. Being such adeep-seated
blood disease, Swift's Specific is the
only known cure for Scrofula, because
it is the only remedy which can reach
the disease.
Scrofula appeared on the head of my little
grandchild when only 10 months old. Shortly
after breaking out it spread rapidly all over
her body. The scabS on the sores would peel
off on the slightest touch, and the OdOr that
would arise made the at &NA
mosphere of the room Z&&AZM
sickening and unbearable. HMNAkSRSA
The disease next attacked #4S& W
the eyes, and we feared she &NV ~
would lose her sight. En- ~ES3 - ~
inent physicians from the WN
surrounding country were ~
consulted, but could do q 49,
nothing to relieve the lit I%~ IL
tie innocent, and gave it 3 IAaS~ZS=% q
as their opinion that the NfEEEa/4&5
case was hopeless and i'm -~zzsz3 zksseARzA@<
possible to save the childs eyesight. 1t was
then that we decided to try Swift's Specific.
That medicine at once made speedy and COM
plete cure. She is now young lady, and has
never had sign of the disease TO return.

Must Come to Taw by sunday.

San Juan de Porto Rico. Sept. 9.-The
American evacuation commissioners, at a
meeting held yesterday afternoon, decid-
ed to notify Capt Gen. Macias that they
were present and ready to proceed with
business.
A letter to this effect was drafted in
most courteous terms. 1t asked where and
when the Spanish commissioners would
meet the Americans.
Lieut.. Sears, Rear Admiral schley's leu
tenant, delivered the communication to
the captain general, driving to the palace
in a carriage.
At the gate of the palace a brick was
hurled at him from the sidewalk. Being
an old base ball player, he was able, part
ly, to ward the missile off with his hands,
and it fell, striking him on the ankle, but
doing only slight injury.
This is the first incident of the kind
since our arrival here.
The lieutenant did not deem it advisable
to lodge a complaint and the police made
no arrest
The American commissioners are letter
mined 10 brook no delay, as indicated Ivy
their action, although Capt. Gem. Macias
recognized their presence by official visits
they have not been notified of the appoint
ment or of the names of the Spanish com
missioners and the names of the latter
have not been officially gazetted here, in
spite of the fact that IL is understood
unofficially that Gen. Ortega and Vale
rlno and the auditor of war, Senior Aguin-
alar comprise the Spanish commission.
The thiry days expire on Sunday and II
the Spaniards are not prepared to pro-
ceed on that date they must explain mat
ters.

President Has Not Yet Decided to Or
der the Inquiry.
Washington, Sept 9.-The cabinet meet
ing to-day was protracted, lasting two
hours and a quarter, although only Sec
retaries Gage and Wilson and Postmaster
General Emory Smith were with the Pres
ident.
The appointment of Senator Gray as
peace commissioner was first considered
and met with such approval that the far
NAL announcement of the choice was
made,
The question of investigating the admin
istration of the war department and the
appointment of commissioners TO conduct
the investigation was gone over. Whether
the President will direct the investigation
depends upon his ability to find men for
the commission, of whom there will be
such universal approval that their YER
dict will be accepted in advance as a lust
determination of the subject If such
men can be found then the President will
name them and order the Investigation;
if they cannot be found, then the investi-
cation will not occur 1t Is felt to be es-
sential as a prerequisite to the commits
sion that a membership shall be secured
which will command general approval
Some names were mentioned, but a con-
clusion was not reached on any of them
The Miles-Alger controversy, which is
distinct from the inquiry into the war de-
partment, was not referred to at the cab-
met meeting

and Adopts His Plans.
Washington. Sept. 9.-Gov. Atkinson is
In Washington. He had a conference
with Adjt. Gen. Corbin at the war depart
ment to-day, and the result of their de-
liberatlons is that the Second Georgia
Regiment Is to remain In the service, and
the First and Third regiments are to be
mustered out of the service.
In view of the very positive statements
Of the adjutant general yesterday that
the rule was first in, first out" and that
it would, in all probability, follow In the
case of the Georgia troops, the decision
of Acting Secretary Meiklejohn to muster
out the Third and retain the Second was
a great surprise to those not in to-day's
conference.
All that Acting Secretary Meiklejohn
would say about the matter was that the
Governor had stated the conditions under
which the regiments had been recruited,
and, as a result, the department had des-
ignated the First and the Third to go out.
Gov. Atkinson reached the city this
morning. He was an early caller at the
war department. and for some time waa
in conference with the acting secretary
and the adjutant general With these gen
tlemen he discussed the Georgia troops at
length. In response to the inquiry of the
assistant secretary as to the geographical
distribution of the troops, he stated that
the immune regiment, which will, of
course, remain in service, was recruited
principally from the southern part of the
state, as was the First; that the Second
was recruited from the Northern part,
and the Third from all over.
The feasibility of keeping in one regi-
ment from the northern part of the state,
as well as one from the southern part. not
both from the same section, was discussed
and the final decision was that the Sec
ond Regiment should stay to act as foil,
as it were, for the Ray regiment, recruit
ed from Southern Georgia.
