When a man owns Il blOoded horse he
is always careful of its health. He looks
after its diet and is particular that the
feeding shall be regular and right. While
he is doing this it is likely as not that he
is suffering from some disease or disor-
der. When the trouble gets so bad that
he cannot work, he will begin to give
himself the care he gave the horse at the
start. Good pure, rich, red blood is the
best insurance against disease of any
kind. Almost all diseases come from i'm
pure or impoverished blood. Keep the
blood pure and strong and disease can
find no foothold. That is the principle
upon which DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery works. 1t clpanses, purifies
and enriches the blood, puts and keeps
the whole body in perfect order; makes
appetite good, digestion strong, assimila-
ton perfect. 1t brings ruddy, virile
health. 1t builds up SOLID. WHOLESOME
flesh (not fat) when. from any cause, re.
dnced below the healthy standard.

into the sea and swan toward the
music.
"Now, we can land them all right
in Cuba" said the colored men.
This same bugler begged for the
privilege of being the first to repeat
experiment in practical debarkation.
So when the time came for unloading
the bugler took his stand on the Dali
quiri beach and horse was slung
overheard. AS soon as the animals
head came up above the water the
bugler began the "Attention" call.
The horse pricked up bis ears, gave
whinny and started for the shore.
Then the other horses were thrown
overheard, in some instances being
pushed into the sea from the gang
plank, and in every case they swan
toward the bugle. Once to test them
bugler on board played at the same
time as one on shore. His music, be-
ing the louder, held the animal like
magnet to the side of the ship, about
which they swan until the ships
trumpet ceased, when away they went
for the bugle note on the distant beach.
The mules presented u problem Of
another kind. They have no soul for
music. Where horses will prance and
dance to bands strains mules will
plod along without even the lift of al
ear. When several mules were sent
overload they swan toward shore and
and landed several miles down the
beach. At last a calvalryman sang
out:
"See, if they won't follow the
horses !"
His advice was taken, and after
that mules and horses went over the
ships's side together. The bugle call.
ed the horses and the mules followed
them in. In nearly every case the an
imals landed within a few yards of the
bugler.

LANDING THE HORSES.

How the Bugle Played All Essential Part In
Getting Them OF the Ships-The Mules
Followed the Horses.
No more interesting incident mark
ell the debarkation of the American
troops for the Santiago campaign than
the landing of the horses and mules.
The sea was 50 rough that the small
boat loads of soldiers could not enter
the surf, and the men had to jump
overheard into the breakers and wade
ashore. The transports were lying a
distance off shore with
the equine passengers. Everyone
knows the usual method of dropping u
four-Iooted creature over the ships
si'le in sort of sling, which, ON strlk-
ing the water, is loosed from the beast,
enabling him TO make his way to shore.
That part of it was easy enough, but
it was IA harder problem to gather the
auimals in one spot on landing, say S
the New York Press.
1t is we'll known that horses do not
make directly for the shore, especially
if the sea is rough, but will often land
q mile or two away. Nor will they
even make their way to shore if they
have been OH board u long time. They
have been known to swim about ves-
sci until, exhausted, they sank.
1t has always been noted in the
cavalry that horses are sensitively OBJ
servant of the notes of the bugle 10
which they have become accustomed
in the service. Round-ups of cavalry
horses have been effected in the west
by bugle calls. Often hundreds OF
horses grazing in the distance and
scattered over a wide expanse OF
prairie have been "bunched" by the
bugle. The trumpeter would blow
the call most familiar to the animals.
They would lift their heads from the

BILL Of RIGHTS IN CUBA.
General Wood Issues an Important Proc
lamation.

lamation.
General Leonard Wood, military
governor of the department of Santa
60, on last Friday, issued, in 10 Sec
tions, a proclamation that is a sort ot
declaration of independence.
The first article guarantees the peo'
pie the right of assembly for the com
mon good and to apply to those in
power by petition or remonstrance foi
the redress of grievances.
The second section guarantees the
right to worship God according to in
dividual conscience, provided there is
NO interference with the existing forms
of worship.
The third section directs that courts
of justice shall be open to all and that
no private property shall be taken by
the government without compensation.
The fourth section, dealing with
criminal trials, invests. the accused
with the right to be heard himself or
by counsel, and to have compulsory
process 10 secure the attendance of Il
witness in his behalf.
The fifth section says no person ac.
cused of crime shall be compelled 10
give evidence against himself.
The sixth section declares that no
such person who is once acquitted OF
the charge brought against him shall
be tried again for the same otfense.
The seventh section provides that
all persons charged with crime shall
be entitled to bail, except in cases OF
capital offense, and that the writ OF
habeas corpus may not be suspended
except when the commanding general
Of the department deems it advisable.
The eighth section says that exces-
sive bail shall not be required and that
no excessive or cruel or unusual pun
ishment shall be inflicted.
The ninth section provides that, in
order to secure the people against
unreasonable search, there shall I've
established under oath a presumption
of guilt.
The tenth section guarantees to all
the right 10 write or print freely all
matter, subject to responsibility Tor
abuse of the right.
The municipal laws are to be admin
istered in accordance with these de.
clarations Of rights, subject to modifi'
cations, which, in the judgment of the
commsading general, would be benefi,
cient and promote the principles OF
enlightened civilization.

A TRAGIC ROMANCE.

This story comes from Deadwood,
S. D., under date of October 81, and
despite its fakish flavor, it is more or
less interesting:
Albert Martin, rancher living near
the Cheyenne river in Zlezeck county,
enlisted as u volunteer at the opening
of the war and fought at the battle OF
Ell Caney. After the battle ne met
Ramona Perez, the daughter of an
officer of Garcia's command, and they
became sweethearts. Soon after he
was attacked by fever and sent home
on sick leave. He was engaged before
his departure for the war To the daugh-
ter of neighboring ranchman, and
arranged to be married while at home
on his leave of absence.
Meanwhile the Cuban girl had learn

ding cabbages in the pot-a-feu, while
the mistress or mother, prob
ably both-called one an idle vagabond
and the other a shameless mink.
Then l caught the lads face and was
held instantly spellbound.
1t was undoubtedly Prince Stanislas
de Medea.
For all his ragged, dusty clothes, his
i'll kempt locks and grimy face, I recog-
nized him beyond all question as the
original of the photograph now held
in my hands.
Surely it is time, prince. I said,
accosting him at once in English, "time

you are dead. He almost wishes it, for
by some mad folly you have nearly
brought an indelible stain upon an an

He had meant, saw clearly, to deny
his identity, but as went on his eyes
filled with tears, and he stammered out:

WHY The CZAR WANTS PEACE.
Condition of the Russian Population Shown
to Cause Anxiety.

to Cause Anxiety.
From the very first, says Vienna
dispatch, the powers have looked
askaIce at the czar's proposal that the
rations acting in concert, reduce the
size of their tremendous standing
armies. 1t has been asserted all along
that the bear was not playing its polit-
ical game for the good of humanity,
and that if the emperor of Russia
desired universal disarmament it was
because disarmament would be good
for Russia. In the light of present
disclosures the assurance that this is
the truth amounts to certainty through
out the circles of the best Informed in
the Austrian court. 1t is held there
that there can be no gainsaying the
fact hat the czar was directly led to
issue his startling peace pronuncia-
mento by the more startling state OF
affairs at home.
1t is alleged that the car was led
10 seize the initiative in disarmament
proposals by the report submitted by
General Dedjourine, who has prosecu-
ted all exhaustive inquiry into the pres
ent efficiency of the Russian standing
army, the probable value Of the re-
serve force and the effect which mill
tary conscriptions has upon economic
conditions throughout the empire.
According to this report, SO per cent.
of The nearly 1000, 900 young men who
this year became liable to military SER
vice failed of passing the medical exam
ination. The general is blunt in as
signing the Cause for this state of af-
fairs. He says that it is the condition
that is to be expected so long as the
flower of the nation are kept under
arms away from their homes. De-
generacy of the species, in conse-
uuence of wholesale conscription, he
declares, prevails throughout all the
agricultural districts of Russia. With
a population in all the Russias of
121 100000 the imperial army on
peace footing contains not far from
SOC, 900 men, and General Dedjourine
declares that it is useless to expect the
standard of strength to be maintained
when the population suffers so contln-
Gus and exhausting drain.
