. Lucien Young to the Front.

Lieut. Lucien Young, whose mother
lived in Lancaster for many years and
is himself well-known here. has piled
up more honOrs by his bravery. The
gallant lieutenant commands n little
boat named the "Hist." He was sent,
with several other small crafts, by
Admiral Sampson, to Manganillo, to
destroy four Spanish gunboats which
the Admiral had been informed were
lying in that harbor. Instead of find
ing only that array of fighting craft,
they encountered, in crescent forma-
ton, nine vessels, including a TORPEDO
boat and cruiser. They also found
themselves flanked by land batteries
and armed pontoons, while a heavy
battery of field artillery was in posi-
ton on the water front to aid in MAX
ing warm the reception Of SIMPSONS
vessels. The Americans pitched in
anyway. The Hist was hit IL times.
but the plucky little craft withstooG
the heavy fire gallantly. During the
engagement the American vessels sue
ceeded in sinking two of the Spanish
gun boats. one sloop and one pontoon.
Trey also disabled the enemy's torpe
do boat, did much damage to several
of the gunboats in the harbor, and
made a marked impression on the
Spanish land batteries: As soon as
the Hist and Wampatuck Discovers d
that the Hornet was disabled, their
captains decided that it would be use
less to fight longer against such a SUI
perior enemy. Accordingly the Wam-
patuck FASTENED to the rescue of the
Hornet, the Hist meantime keeping
up its sharpest fire. The Hist for
merly was the Hespita, is l74 feet long,
1925 feet wide. and has q displace-
ment Of 472 tons.

A New Discovery, But not Fae'n'

DR.. Redwell relates an interesting aC-
count of what he considers relnalhapie
cure of acute stomach troupe anu o,ilonic
dyspepsia by the use OF the ne" olscoV-
cry, Stuart's Dyspepsia Iaplets.
He says: The patient was man VINO

with dvsnepsia, Everything he ate SEEM
ed to sour and create acid and gases in
fine stomach; he had pains like rheuma-
tism in the back, shoulder blades and
limbs fullness and distress after eating.

became affected, causing palpitation and
sleep essness at nlghU.
gave him powerful nerve tonics and
blood remedies. but to no purpose. AS
an experiment finally bought fifty
cent package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's at drug store and gave them to
him. Almost immediate relief was given
and after he had used four boxes he was
to all appearance fully cured.
There was no more acidity or sour
watery rising, no bloating after meals,
the appetite was vigorous and he has
gained between 10 and IL pounds in
weight of solid, healthy flesh.
Although StuartS Dyspepsia 1doioIS
are advertised and sold in drug stores
yet J consider them a most valuable ad-
dition to any physicians line of remed-
les, as they are perfectly harmless and
can be given to children or invalids or in
any condition of the stomach with per
feet safety, being harmless and contain
ing nothing but vegetable and fruit es-
sences, pure pepsin and Golden Seal.
Without any question they are the SAT-
est, most effective cure for Indigestion,
biliousness, constipation and all derange-
ments of the stomach however slight OF
severe.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are made
by the Stuart CO. of Marshall, Mich,
and sold by druggists everywhere at fifty
cents per package.

SAYS sAGAsTA IS RESPONSIBLE.

Madrid, September 20.-The Duke of
Tetuan, who was minister for foreign
affairs in the cabinet of the late Premier
Canovas del Castillo. is quoted as saying
in an interview:
"Senor Canovas if he had lived, would
never have accepted war with the United
States. Canovas and myself were con-
yinced that war would lead inevitably to
the ruin of Spain.
Continuing, the Duke blamed the
Liberals who, he said, could have ayerted
war; either by accepting the preferred
good offices of the United States minis
ter, Gen. Stewart l.. Woodford, or by
treating with the insurgents on the ba @s
of Cuban independence or by selling
Cuba.
In conclusion, the Duke OF Tetuan re-
marked: :.
tSenor Sagasta is responsible for all
our disaster and must be elected from
power
