CERvERA TO HIS MEN.
"Amerfca Forced Spain to War,
Most TniusfIy.v

MADRID. May II. p. MAJ the mo-
ment of his departure from the Cape
Verde Islands. Admiral Cervera, in COM
mand OF the Spanish squadron in West
Indian waters. made the following adj
dress to the crews OF his ships:
AFTER three years OF struggle in Cuba,
we were nearing the end OF the trouble.
which certainly would have been ended
three months ago. but for Americas aid.
That nation, believing she had created
by underhand means a thousand embar-
easements. but that nevertheless she
would not be able TO attain the object OF
her ambition. at last threw off the mask.
ana when the Instruction was on this
last legs. commenced against us the
most unjust war in the history Of the
world.
SPAIN" the Admiral continued. "did
not wish for war. She conceded every
thing self-respecting nation could con-
cede, but the Americans, whose ambi-
ton is not satiable. always asked for
something more, and even what belong
ed to us-that land, discovered by Span
iards, led by Columbus.
Forward, then. to the war, since we
are forced thereto by the Americans
blind ambition. But let us enter the
combat as did the Spaniards Of old,
strong in their rights and trustful in
God, who will never abandon a just
cause, and who will aid our efforts
Il need not enjoin discipline upon you,
for during the past six months you have
been under my command | have only
had cause for congratulations.
Nor need / call on you to do your duty
and especially during the
which will often be most try
ing. Still less need urge you TO display
You are Spaniards, and that is
I'm war
Then. when lead you to battle, have
confidence in your chiefs, and then God,
whose eye is upon you, will see that
Spain will live for all time. Viva la
Reina Regente."

The Death Rate.

While il is quite true that the proportion
of deaths from malaria as an immediate
cause is proportionately small as cited in
annual mortuary statistics. yet physi-
clans are thoroughly convinced that it
causes maladies of a fatal character,
and begets dangerous nervous prostration.
This malady is eradicated and prevented
by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which
also cures biliousness, constipation, rheu-
matism and dyspepsia.

Injury Claim Settled.

Claim Agent T. E. Gerren, of
the G. G.. & S. F. Ry., was in town
yesterday and effected settlement
with Attorney l. r. Mason in the
personal injury claim of w. II.
Bratcher, who was injured at the
railroad crossing here in April
last.
We understand the amount paid
in settlement was $400.
ThMprompt settlement of this
claim speaks well for the young
attorney in the case and also shows
that our railroad company wants to
adjust all claims when properly
presented.
