A Famous Shot.

A chicago lawyer has received from
one Of the officers of the United
States monitor Puritan letter giving
an account Of the bombardment of
Matanzas and the famous shot which
silenced the Gordon Point battery.
The story was written at the request of
tho attorney, and is as follows:
"You ask me about Matanzas, and
the bombardment. Wednesday the
New York came down from off Havana
to investigate a report to the effect
that the dons were putting up some
new batteries at Gorda Point. She
passed US and signaled us to follow
her, steamipg in to within 5000 yards
sof the batteries. She stopped, and
suddenly we saw her forward 8-inch
guns fred, she shot striking the earth
works near the battery. The Span
iards replied to this shot, and the New
York began to light up. You could
not see her for smoke.
I'VE began to get nervous for fear
that we we're to be left out of the muss,
so we signaled for permission to fire,
and it being given, we unclaimed q
Jew of our pets and did good work.
We fred only one of eur 12-ineh
guns. one in our forward turrct, at the
Murillo battery, on the left hand side
Of the harbor.
1T struck short, but the ricochet
must have hit the battery. as the dons
were Immediately seen going over the
hill, striking the ground only in high
places.
THE famous shot was our last one
from the port forward finch, and ii
was quite funny. y man by the name
Of Jackson, an old cowboy, is the gun
captain. Three minutes after the or
der, "ccase firing was given from the
flagship, everybody was startled to
hear the finch gun 60 off. The man
evidently felt he had dead head and
he let her go regardless. The range
was about two and one-half miles, and
the shot struck right in the Gorda
battery and burst-a phenomenal shot.
The men shouted themselves hoarse. ="

FEVER.
. Few Words Of Warming

Persons who may be exposed to vel
low fever and others living in districts
liable to be infected by it will find that
timely and intelligent preparation is
the best means of keeping this dread
full malady out of the family. SAM
tary regulations in the household are
of the frat Importance. Clean up all
refuse matter, decaying vegetation or
cesspools. Drain off ponds, pools and
sinks. Burn vegetable offal from the
kitchen. Eat nothing but light, whole
some and easily digested food, avoid
ing green or over ripe fruits and vege-
tables. Lastly, be sure that the blood,
stomach and bowels of every member
Of the family is in healthy condition.
Irregularities in the system, such as
indigestion, constipation, torpid liver,
invite disease to enter the body, and
in the case Of yellow fever, renders
its progress more virulent and deadly.
This condition can be speedily remov-
ed and pure blood, good digestion and
regularity in the bowels re established
by using Psickly Ash Bitters, the
great System Regulator. The fre-
quent use Of this remedy in doses
suited to the age of each person will
maintain perfect health in the family.
Ges bottle at once while the fever is
yet pfar off, use it faithfully and reg
ularly. Prompt action NOW in put
ting yourself and family in condition
to resist the disease germs may spare
you suffering and sorrow. Prickly
Ash Bitters can be obtained at Evans
phormocv
