CUBAN BRIGANDs.
Insurge1t Colonel Heads a Band of
Marauders.

Santiago, Nov. S.-The main question
now before General Leonard Wood, gov
ernor of the military district of Santiago,
is rot political. 1t is the question of
water, which is a serious problem. The
rainy season is about over and usually
after month or so of dry weather, water
has to be brought from the mountains
and sold in the streets. General Wood is
anxious TO prevent a repetition OF such
conditions and has engaged the services
of three expert engineers to report as to
the best method of supplying the city
or other means.
Matamore. a colonel in the insurgent
army and formerly bandit, firing of
the humdrum ways of peace, recently
took to the hills with 20 men and is now
carrying on his ola vocation, robbing
plantations and farms of cattle and
horses and setting q very bad example.

REVIVAL OF BUSINESS N CUBA
SUGAR ESTATES COMMENCING
OPERATIONS.
Tobacco Properties Making Provision
For Vast Increase In Business
Want Tariff Adjusted.

New York, Nov S.-A dispatch to the
Herald from Havana says; Work on
the Marianao pier for landing the
troops is almost at standstill. Two
cradles have been thrown out and are
now being filed with stone, but the
Cuban labor employed was found most
unsatisfactory.
In response to a petition from Span
ish merchants to have the time for no
tice in regard to a new tariff EXTENDED
from the 80 days advocated IN Mr.. For
ter's report to so, business men here
with American interests are formulat-
ing a counter petition. praying that
there be no further delay. Signs of a
revival of business here are increasing
daily. The sugar estates in the VicSl-
itv of Cienfuegos, which suffered little
during the war, are commencing opera
lions, as also are many near MatanzaS.
Those near Havana will not be able to
resume for some time to come, the to-
bacco properties especially are making
provision for vast increase of bust
ness; one local firm of importers placed
Yesterday an order for 10000 lengths of
piping for irrigating tobacco proper
ties.
There has been a great increase in
crime in the city. Many streets are
dangerous for pedestrians at night. A
glaring case of violence occurred few
evenings ago, when a well-known
Spanish merchant was assaulted by
three negroes, badly beaten and robbed.
On Saturday night another similar as
sault was committed on the Prado,
near the United States club, but the
victim escaped.
regarding the imprisonment of the
Cuban General Ruiz Rivera, in Mon
juich, Barcelona, it is believed he will
be released shortly. The case of Ba-
callao, his aide, imprisoned in Cabanas,
on a Spanish charge OF murder, VIII
likely be delayed for an investigation.
1t is probable there will be a revision
of the case of Frank Bolio.
Commissioner Jose Miguel Gomez, ar
irving from Sancti Spiritus, reports
great misery and lack of food in the
Cuban camps there and at Santa Clara,
and will see the American commission
regarding the situation.

YOUR WEAK SPOT.
DO YOU KNOW JUST WHERE IT
is?
"a Fortress Is No Stronger Than It's
Weakest spot.n Neither Is Any
Man or Woman.
oHypelessly ruined through one weak


'HOpelessly ruined through one weak
spot"
1t was a great scientific expert who
recently expressed this opinion in re-
gard to a costly battleship lately COM
Dleted for the q. S. navy. When the
huge vessel was launched and made
ready to receive its gigantic cannon, it
was found that it could not stand the
strain of the added weight. The whole
ship was in danger of falling to pieces.
Owing to weak spot in its construc-
ton, the great man-of-war was hope
lessiy ruined. It was only when the
strain came that its weak condition
was actually discovered.
Strange as it may seem, there are
thousands of men and women in exact
ly the same condition as this great
battleship. They have weak spots in
their systems which they never suS-
pect. They pay no attention to alarm
ing symptoms of ill-health, and seek no
remedy. Some day strain comes and
they discover too late that they are in
no condition to fight with disease. They
catch sudden cold or chill, and 1t
speedily turns into pneumonia They
suffer from peculiar sensations or pains
which eventually turn out to be the
symptoms of Brights disease or con-
gestion of the liver.
Where is the weak spot in your Sys-
tenn? The chances are that you nave
one which badly needs attention. Phy-
sicians tell US that in almost every case
the weak spot can be found in the liver
or kidneys. These great organs of the
body require constant watching. Our
climate, our diet, our habits of living
put them to a continual strain, and
when they get out of order, the whole
system suffers.

can make up your mind that your liver
and Kidneys are in need OF treatment
You have a weak spot that must not be
trifled with.
There is one cause for these weak
spots. There is only one way to cure
them. Something is needed to act on
the liver and kidneys, where the weak
ness exists. You cannot cure disease of
these great organs with pills or other
cheap remedies. Something is required
to strike at the root of the aiiment.
There is. in fact, only one remedy
which is guaranteed to cure every form
of liver and kidney complaint. That
remedy is Warmers Safe Cure, which,
for 20 years, has stood the test and
earned, as all are aware, worldwide
reputation. No other remedy COM
pares with it for regulating the action
of the liver and kidneys, driving out
disease, building up the system and
giving fresh life. Writing upon the
subject, DR.. Gum says: In a large
class of ailments, where the blood is in
an unhealthy state, where the general
health is bad, the face sallow, the

FROM THE KLoNDrKE.
Harry Finch Writes Down From
Dawson CITY.

Dawson City.
Yesterday Harry Finch received an
interesting letter from his brother Joe,
written at Dawson City on Oct. 2. It
stated that matters were getting quiet
in the gold-seekers' metropolis, and
everybody owning claims was prepar-
ing to work the diggings for the sea-
son. The weather at that time was
fine. 1t was freezing hard, but the
snow was not deep enough for sleigh
ing.
Referring to Tom LIoyd's two placer
claims, on Dominion creek, which are
a couple of claims distant from the
Finch diSgings, Joe's letter said they
were very valuable, paying $500 a day
10 the rocker. There is $4,000 in gold
on The dump. and Lloyd had been Of
Tered $50 600 for the privilege of work
Ing his half interest this winter. Utah's
cN-coai mine inspector had been ham
pered by gang Of petty lawyers and
back-cappers. but lately he had secured
an injunction from their interference.
He has acquired plenty of capital at his
command and row the chances are
G0od for him making a big cleanup
before next summer. Dominion creek
is attracting especial attention.
The postal facilities are Improving,
and the promise is that a horse ex-
press. with relays every 20 miles, will
be kept Up all winter over the mai.
route from Skagway. The clippings
of the important news items SEM to
him by letter are very interesting.
The Salt Lake contingent of fortune
seekers is reported we'll to the front,
and there are but few cutters. With
the approach of cold weather typhoid
and the other epidemic fevers have dis
appeared. Captain Jack Donovan is
out of the hospital.
Harry Edwards and Johnny Bechtol
are still employed at Healy's. Mrs.
Finch viii come back to Salt Lake next
May on a visit.
The only article of food that is
scarce, and will continue so during the
winter in Klondike. is butter.
