LAKEWOOD AMONG THE PINES.
1t is Attracting Much Attention as a
Winter Resort.

Lakewood in the New Jersey pines,
So miles from New York, commands
the attention of persons seeking a
winter place OF sojourn as the most
popular, delightful, salubrious and
healthful winter resort in the north.
The climate of Lakewood seldom
varies and the bracing, pine-laden air
is so dry that cold is scarcely noticed.
In fact, Lakewood is a combined win
ter resort for fashion and outdoor
sports and for persons affected with
lung and throat troubles. The village
has the finest appointed and largest
hotels existing and irnumerable high
class boarding hou

THE GREAT STORE.

Winter at Lakewood is like summer
at Saratoga, constant round OF
gaiety and pleasure indoors and out
doors. The finest kind of roads and
most romantic drives are here, and a
beautiful lake skirts the village, where
skating and ice boating form inviting
features.
Lakewood is reached only by the
Central Railroad of New Jersey which
operates a special and freight train
service, including parlor cars, from sta
tions in New York, foot of Liberty
street and Whitehall terminal at South
Ferry. Z"

physicians accounted
~> wise, searched vainly for the
Elixir of Life, or the knowledge
whereby life might be prolonged.
We now know that there is no such thing
as an Elixir of Life. But we have learned
that life may be prolonged by those who
take the right measures.
Any man or woman who will take care of
health and take the right remedies for i'll
health, may live to a ripe old age. When
a man feels out of sorts when he gets up
in the morning tired out after a restless
night and goes home in the evening COM
pletely knocked out with his days work,
without appetite or ambition, he is a sick
man. If he does not take the right remedy
he will soon be in the grasp of consump-
ton, nervous prostration, malaria, or some
other serious malady.
A man in this condition should at once
resort to DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. 1t is the best of all medicines for
hard working men and women. 1t makes
the appetite keen and hearty. II gives
sound and refreshing sleep. 1t tones and
strengthens the whole system. 1t invigor-
ates the heart and nerves. 1t makes diges-
tion perfect, the liver active and the blood
pure. 1t cures 90 per cent. Of all cases of
consumption. II strengthens weak lungs,
and cures bronchitis, splitting of blood and
obstinate coughs. II is the great blood
maker and flesh builder. 1t does not make

=. S.--As the tracks, or rails, of the
street car company are between three
and four inches below the pave at this
point, and it is impossible for the water
to- flow into the basin, from between the
rails, the company should be required to
make a connection, between the rails,
with the sewer at said point
There is now all that territory between
Phelps street and Poplar street and the
Delaware and Hudson railroad and WASH
ington avenue without any sewer, hence
all the rain falling on that water shed
flows to a point on Phelps street, where
there is but two street basins connected
with the sewer This is more than those
two basins can, or ever were intended
to, take care of; therefore we would rec
ommend that sewers be constructed as
shown on enclosed plan, or at least the
Wyoming avenue line as far as Ash
street. ON this portion four street bas-
. ins would be constructed, which would
assist very materially in taking care of
the flow of water from the above water
shed, and would very much releave the
two basins on Phelps street, and In my
opinion, prevent any further cause for
complaint or damages.
Estimates have been made for improve
ments at the inlet of this sewer, but,
having learned that plans have been pre-
rared. and that it is the intention of
the Dunmore borough officials to con-
struCt a sewer from our inlet for the
| use of said borough the construction of
said improvements are not recommended
| at present.
This sewer, if taken care of and prop
crly cleaned will work well, and in capac~
| ity is more than large enough to re-
| ccive and convey the water of all heavy
rains falling on the water shed that
| this was intended to accommodates; this
| has been testified to in courts by prom
| inent civil engineers of this and other
| cities. and as further proof we learn that
| tie sewer before mentioned proposed to
| be built by the borough of Dunmore will
| have an area at our inlet of 10 41-10O
square feet, while the combined area of
| our ,ity sewer at this point is 81 56-10O
s.nare feet.
REASONS FOR FAILURE.
| The letter continued with an explain
| alton of the frequent reason for the
failure of sewers to properly perform
| the functions for which they are con-
| structed. This comment is contained
in an article published elsewhere in
this issue of The Tribune. The fol-
lowing estimate of cost concluded the
communications:

cUBANS INVADE CUBA.
A Large Expedition Landed Near
Guantanamo.

KEY WEST, May 31.-Nearly 400
men, with pack train and a large
quantity of arms and ammunition.

CRUISER DISABLED.

the hole extended about 10 feet high
and six feet wide. As soon as the YES
sci came to anchor she lowered cou-

AT CAMP THOMAS.
Vermont Troops Still Undergoing
Trying-Out Process.

CHIcKAMAUGA, June 1.-The past
week has been uneventful here. There
are about $4,000 troops in camp, which
is about all that are expected at pres
ent. Some Of the regiments are being
moved to Tampa, preparatory to the
expected invasion of Cuba. The desti-
nation of the Vermont regiment is un-
known. The boys are drilling faith
fully and getting into shape as fast as
the intense heat will permit. The
thermometer ranges about 1909 There
is a scarcity of good drinking water
What there is is milky and unpalata-
BILE. The food is above complaint. Col.
Clark still commands the brigade and
Lieut.-Col. Mimms the regiment. There
is some sickness, notably Musician
SpoffOrd OF Bennington, who is bad off.
Many are still lacking uniforms. The
regiment receives much commendation
for gentlemanly behavior, in contrast
with some other troops. All the boys
are tired of inaction and anxious to
get to work.
Col. w. Seward Webb's donation of
$500 for the general needs of the boys
is greatly appreciated.

MOVEMENT TOWARD CUBA.
Almost Ready to Embark For the
Invasion.

tuNdSiOUs
TAMPA, FLA, June l.-Gen. Miles.
with his entire staff and a force of
clerks, arrived here at 80 this morn
ing. His family was also with him.
The regular muster and Inspection
of the regiments yesterday was un-
usually rigid Preparations are being
made for an extended campaign and
rations sufficient to last an army OF
70,0 900 men three months have been
stored here.
Gen. Miles will make the inspection
of the army as ordered and will then
return to Washington, according to
the present understanding, so no inn
mediate invasion of Cuba is looked for.
Gen. Shatter is to command the ex-
pedition against Santiago, Gen. Brooke
will lead the forces to Porto Rico and
Gen. Lee Is expected To accompany
him. The transfer of his headquarters
to Jacksonville tends to confirm this
impression.
Reports received from Cuba show
that Garcia now has force of 10000
men in the field. They are in excel
lent spirits. A part of the force will
be removed from Santiago province
to carry on operations elsewhere.
The present plan of campaign, as it
is understood on the outside, is for an
expedition to 90 to Santiago first, the
purpose being to surround the Spanish
fleet by land, capture the city and
forts and force the fleet to surrender
or 30 out Of the harbor, where it will
meet the American fleet in waiting.
Twelve thousand troops will @o in this
direction. The Spanish ships, if they
can be captured, will make Il valuable
addition to our navy. Santiago, too,
has many advantages as base OF
operations. 1t is in a portion OF the
island almost wholly controlled by the
insurgents who will cooperate. From
it, expeditions could move as a base
and supplies could be carried TO the
needy Cubans.
The.capture of Porto Rico with 20,-
600 men, assisted by SIMPSONS fleet,
is also a part of the scheme. There
are $4,000 Spanish troops on the island.
Once wrested from Spain, it would
lead to greater successes in Cuba.
There seems to be much disinclina-
ton to tackle the actual Cuban prob
lem until the wet season has passed
and our soldiers are better prepared.
The Santiago-Porto Rico plan may
be merely blind to deceive the en-
emy.

Assistance for Dewey.

Three steamers carrying about 1000
troops left San Francisco last week
Wednesday for the Philippines. The
cruiser Charleston had preceded them.
The expedition carries great quanti-
tn of ammunition and stores. 1t will
take three weeks TO reach Manila.
Dewey still holds Manila harbor and
the city is on the point of starving. 1t
is likely to capitulate at any time.
Another Spanish gunboat is reported
to have been captured by Dewey.
