Home Treatment by Mail.

The method of treating patients who
live at a distance has been so perfected
that by means of DR.. Blair's diagnosis
sheet and other systematic arrangements,
a sufficient knowledge of each case can
be obtained to make successful treatment
at home an easy matter. Thus patients
can be treated at home we'll as in the
city. Medicines are neatly packed and
sent by express. A regular correspond
ence is required and maintained. re-
port from the patient each week, stating
progress and condition, is required. In
this way the physician and patients are in
constant touch and every detail in each
durable case is worked out until a cure
is effected. Write for symptom sheet.

Why the Negro is Called a Coon.

Many years ago, when superstition
held greater sway than now, and the
influences of the occult and weird were
most potent, cunning negro slave had
acquired the reputation of possessing
a familiar spirit and of being able to
perform many uncanny mysteries. His
fellow-slaves held him in great awe,
and even his master grew to a belief in
his powers. This finally led to a wag-
er, in which the greater part of the
masters fortune was staked on the ne
gro's divining ability. A barrel was
placed on the lawn and a live coon
placed under the barrel. Then the ne
gro soothsayer was sent for and told
to inform the crowd what was under
the barrel. He tried in various ways
to escape the exposure, but without
success. Realizing that he was cor
nered, he leaned on the barrel de-
jec-edly, and remarked: well, you've
got this old coon at last" whereupon a
gre 1T shout applauded what was con-
sic cred Sambo's remarkable astuteness,
a his reputation was forever firmly
established.-Miss Mary Spears, in Bal

SPECULATION IN WAR BONDS

SCRIPTIoNS WITH SUSPICION

Figure On Selling at Premium
Proposes to Stop 81

Washington, June 23.-The following
statement was made at the treasury de-
partment today: Among the many sub
scriptions for the smaller amounts of $500
or less received by the treasury depart
ment there appear almost daily remit
tances from banks and smaller institu-
tiOnS covering a long list of subscribers
in small amounts. The fact that there is
a small premium offered by large would
sons who have no bona fide intention of
investing in the bonds. The pro forma
subscriptions thus obtained are then for
warded by the agency gathering them in
1t is easily seen that the fair purpose Of
the law, which favors an honest subscrip-
ton by the citizens of humber means,
may be thus circumvented. The treasury
has a watchful eye out for such abuses,
and where the case is clear enough, such
subscriptions are returned TO the sender.
In other cases where doubt exists the
secretary has prepared and Will send the
following letter:
Dear Sir-You are respectfully advised
that the several subscriptions OF $500 each
enclosed by you are not accepted, but are
held in allegiance for your further adj
vice.
THE duty of this department requires
a reasonable. yet diligent guarding of the
rights of those in whose behalf the law
has special regard. The department,
therefore, deems it proper to require from
you clear and unequivocal statement
that in appearing for the persons whose
names are signed to the subscription
behalf, and not for the Interior advantage
of yourself or any other interest.
In the absence of a satisfactory state
ment from you to this effect the subscrip-
turned to you. Respectfully yours.

I returned and no spaniards were

net returned and no Spaniards were
visible
Two correspondents of the Associated
Press in a small boat joined the frs
iiotilla that went ashore and witnessed
the inspiring sight of the landing.
General Shafter, on board the Sc
SurSnca, closely watched the landing
OF the. troops.
Brigadier General LaWton, who had
been detailed to command the landing
OF the troops, led the way in launch,
accompanied by his staff, and directed
the formation of the line of operation.
The Eighth regular infantry was the
Hrst to land, followed by General
Shaiter'S old regiment, the First in
fantry. Then came the Twenty-fifth
infantry, the Twenty-second infantry,
the Tenth infantry, the Fifteenth in
1antry, the Seventeenth infantry and
Twelfth infantry, the Second Massa-
chusetts regiment and a detachment
OF the Ninth cavalry.
The boats rushed forward simultan-
eously from every quarter in good-na-
tured rivalry to be first, and their oc-
cupants scrambled over one another
to leap ashore.
AS the boats tossed about in the surf
breaking against the piero getting
ashore was no easy matter, and the
soldiers had to throw their rifles on
tltC 0OCh OGlOlE luGy COuiu up
themselves, and some hard tumbles re-
suited, but nobody was hurt.
At the end OF the pic the companies
and regiments quickly lined up and
were marched away.
CHARTERED FOR THE NIGHT.
General Lawton threw a strong de-
tachment for the night about six miles
west, on the road to Santiago, and an
other detachment was posted to the
north of the town, among the hills. The
rest Of the troops were quartered in
the town, some of them being housed
in the building of the iron company.
Other troops We're quartered in desc
lated houses, while others still pre-
ferred the shelter of their tents in the
adjoining fields.
The mornings fire, it was seen, de-
stroyed the roundhouse, the repair
shops and several small dwellings,.
The town was deserted when the
troops landed, but women and child
rem soon appeared from the surround
ing thickets and returned to their
homes.
The sun-bronzed soldiers, in their
SLOUGH hats and service uniforms,
quickly searched the buildings and
heat up the thickets after landing, in
search Of lurking foes, and marched
into the unknown country beyond at
nightfaH with long, swinging strides
and the alert bearing of the old frontier
army men, ready to fight the Spaniards
Sioux fashion or in the open wherever
they could be found. The cheers of
their comrades still waiting on the
transports, and of the bluejackets,
and the strains of Yankee Doodle
from the bands on the troop ships sa-
luted them as they disappeared from
view over the hills of Baiquir.
The landing was accompanied with
out loss of life, the only casualty being
the wounding of an insurgent in the
hills by a shell from one of our ships.
He will lose his arm. The insurgent
troops at Baiauiri are commanded by
General Castillo and are estimated to
number a thousand men.

FORCES AT CHICKAMAUGA.
Nearly Fifty Thousand Volunteers
Now In Camp.

Chickamauga National Military
Park, June 23.--No orders of any kind
affecting the present status of General
Brooke's army have been received, and
the work of preparing the men for the
field is going forward rapidly and sat
isfactorily There are now in the park
nearly 1900 men and there are being
added daily from 500 to 700 recruits.
Yesterday and last night the arrivals
numbered 1900.
Including the payments to the
Twelfth New York this week, it is es-
timated that $4,000 has been paid to
volunteers at Chickamauga since the
army modified here.
The regiments are nearly all equipped
with new uniforms and are being
armed as rapidly as the guns can be
turned out of the arsenal. Other need
ed small equipments are being added
daily, and it is believed that this army
will be the best equipped of any to go
into the field.
For the first time in the history of
the army of the United States an am
bulance corps is being organized as a
new adjunct England, Germany and
France have such a corps in their
armies, but it is new undertaking
for this government. The object of this
is to facilitate the proper handling Of
the sick and wounded on the field.

The ships of Admiral Cerveray have
moved from the positions they were in
three days ago, and now lie in almost
circle, surrounding small island
and lighthouse about half way up the
harbor. The cruiser Cristobal Colon,
which is uninjured, lies to the west,
commanding with her port battery the
narrow neck of the harbor while the
Vizcaya, also uninjured, lies to the
east, her starboard battery looking
upon the same neck.
Both of the Spanish torpedo boat
destroyers are temporarily disabled,
one having been struck by fragments
of the shells that sunk the Reiffa Mer-
cedes, and the other having her boiler
tubes and engines in course Of repair.
The most important statement made
was in substance that the torpedo
boats have not since their arrival here,
made any attempt to leave, being I'M
able to do so. The ships have only
half their supplies Of coal, although
some coal arrived by overland routes
two weeks ago.
The shell that sunk the Reina Mer-
cedes was fred by the Massachusetts.
Beyond this loss and quite a large loss
of life incident to it there was little
or no damage done. The earthworks

Seven new guns are being put up
facing the sea, three of which on the
west are ships guns of the 6-inch rapid
fire variety and automatic guns of all
descriptions, it appears, are being dis
mounted from the ships and mounted
on the earthworks surrounding the
city. A new line of trenches has been
dug about a mile and half from the
city.
The Spanish soldiers known -as the
regular troops are on half rations and
no rations or supplies are furnished TO
the local Spanish forces, numbering
about 5000 men. They are compelled
to forage for themselves.
The spirit of discomfort it also seems,
is very widespread among the Spanish
troops, and an uprising in Santiago de
Cuba IS feared.
There is an absolute lack of drugs in
Santiago and, finally. the crews of the
Spanish warships are on half rations.
