every gun was silenced. The people
of the town fed into the country.

One Of the stirring events Of the
past week was the daring exploit OF
Lieut.. R. P. Hobson, of Alabama, and
seven companions. In order to pre-
vent the Spanish feet from slipping
out of the harbor of Santiago under
cover of darkness it was desirable to
obstruct the channel. Lieutenant
Hobson proposed sinking the collier
Merrimac, and he was permitted to
undertake the work. He took with
him seven volunteers-he could have
gotten seven hundred just as easily
and, though the chances were against
them returning alive, they fearlessly
started on their perilous expedition.
Under cover of night they moved to-
wards the narrow channel, and almost
reached it before they were discovered,
when the enemy rained around them
shot and shell. They never faltered,
and when a narrow point in the chan
mel was reached they sunk their ves-
sci. The small boat in which they In
tended to escape was shot to pieces, SO
tbev clambered on a raft, from which
they were taken as prisoners Of war by
the Spanish Admiral Cervera was SO
struck with the bravery Of the act that
he sent a message to Admiral Samp-
son telling him that the men were safe
and offering to exchange them at the
first opportunity. The papers of the
world are strong in their praise of the
daring and successful performance
and our government will promote
Lieutenant Hobson.

Hiahwaymen on Wheels.

A wheelman of West 10th street, New
York, was attacked, robbed and left
senseless by two highwaymen mounted
on BICYCLES in Central Park. Repeated
accounts of robberies by men mounted
upon wheels have appeared in the pa
pers in various parts of the country.
Those depredators of the health, dis
eases of the kidneys and bladder, will
likewise escape arrest, and pursue their
atrocious career unchecked, unless they
are arrested by the potent Intervention

diureetic, as well as tonic, known to
modern times. 1t is at the start that
disease is the more easily overcome. The
use of the Bltters is followed by the
happiest results in dyspepsia, liver com
plant and nervousness.

MARSHALL S. CoRNwELL died at
his home in Romney, this State, May
Goth. He had been sick for a couple
of years with consumption, and after
a brave and long-continued struggle
he was finally conquered. He faced
death with a courage and serenity that
was marvellous, and when the call
came he was entirely ready. Mar
shall Cornwell was specially gifted
young man, and had God spared him
longer he would have certainly made
fame for himself among our poets and
writers. There was freshness and
originality in his ideas, and a pleasing
way of expressing them, that seemed
only to need cultivation to expand In
to great beauty. But an inscrutable
Providence cut short his earthly Ca
reer, and we must believe that what
ever is is best. To his family we ex.
tend our sincere coincidence.
