With local politics and war, to
say nothing of hot weather, the
public mind has been kept in an
unusual strain since the clash of
arms began at Santiago, that was
happily relieved by the signal
victory of Sampson over Cervera,
which occurred Just in time to
cliff the country" out of the
slough of despond" and afford
an opportunity to celebrate the
immortal fourth with more than
old time eclat and fervor. Rah.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by on infiamed con-
dition of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless the infiamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but an infamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces
We will fgive One Hundred Dollars

catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

4 MARIETTA SOLDIER WRITES
FROM NEAR SANTIAGO bECIRA.

The following letter is from w. E..
Crockett, of this place, to one Of our
citizens:
! About eight miles east of Santiago
de Cuba, Camp of Troop D., Rough
Riders, June %, 1S9S.-Dear Sir: We
arrived in Cuba after rough voyage.
and landed about twenty-five miles
east OF Santiago, on June %. On the
evening of the 23d we made forced
march OF eight miles, where we went
INTO camp. We broke camp on morn
| ing OF oath, and marched rapidly to-
ward Santiago. After marching about
| Iour miles, we ran into an ambus-

been about two thousand strong,

and were up and at them in a hurry.
They fought with great bravery. and
| only retreated when we were at close
quarters. They were armed with the
Mauser rifles and used smokeless now
der, which made them very hard to To-
| cate. They also had machine guns
which used smokeless powder too. In
| our advance we were exposed to heavy
| cross fire of both rifles and machine
guns, and from the way the bullets
| ripped and tore the foliage around us.
| 1t seemed impossible to advance against
such a whitening fire. Our troop d.

were about thirty wounded and eight
killed. | do not mean to boast but

was all over, but think | will be all

The Rough Riders have made fine
record in the first fight, with the help
OF some of the regulars. The bravery
| of both officers and men of this regi-
ment was particularly noticeable
Colonies Wood and Roosevelt leading
the men with great GOODNESS and judg-
ment, and were as cool as if on parade
During the fight the cannon of Samp-
sons and Cervera's fleets and from
MORO Castle could be plainly heard.
The country here is very beautiful,
though everything in way of farms has
been abandoned. The foliage and
grasses are luxuriant beyond anything
L ever imagined, and towering above
the underground are the beautiful
palms.

UNJUST.

Bryan had better stay out OF

the trick ON him that David tried
to play on Uriah.-Vernon TEX
as) Call.
The above is a very unjust crit
icism. President Mckinley may
be a party partizan, as many
prominent men are, but that he
has murder in his heart and would
be willing to place Bryan i'll a
position to be killed purposely, to
get rid of a formidable political
opponent, we don't believe. We
believe President Mckinley to be
christian gentleman, and that
he feels profoundly the fearful
and grave responsibility that the
war has placed upon him, and
that he regards the lives of our
soldiers with due regard to safety.
In this crisis he should have the
kindly words, sympathy and sup
port of every American, regardless
OF party, i'll bringing success to
our army and peace to our COM
mon country.

NERVOUS BREAKDOWN
Comes TO the Preacher from Over Study and Brain 1T Genes
to Any Person, too, who Worries and Frets.
From the Huron Tribune, Bad Are, Mich.

A "breaking down of the nervous system"
is a modern expression,-a modern COM
plant. 1t is induced by prolonged strain
and the overtaxing of the nervous system,
and is a product Of over hurry and hustle.
It affects the preacher and the lawyer-the
direct result of brain tire. 1t affects people
in any walk of life, too, who worry and fret.
1t means depicting Of the nerve forces.
1t is durable by complete rest and change
Of scene, also by the use of nerve restoratives
and nerve foods. AS the first method is not
within the reach of all, the latter offers
the most universal and practical method
Of treating the complaint. When it is de.
termined that medicine is to be used, Sc.
lect that one which contains the most nerve.
nourishing properties. Do not take nerve
tonics. They only stimulate, and the reaction
leaves you worse than you were before.
Select the medicine that is to the nerves
what meat is to the body-one that as it
builds up the nerves, also increases your
weight. The best thing for the purpose is
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People,
the reputation of which is built up by solid
and indisputable proof, and which is known
in every hamlet in the country.
AS proof of its merits in such eases, read
the following letter of clergyman:

Dear Sirs I'm April, 1896 l was hope

some OF the negro volunteers in
South Carolina have the right idea
with regard to the officers who
shall command them. At Spar
tallpurg negro company elected
white captain, and white first
and second lieutenants. Members
OF the company said they were
not willing to risk their lives in
the hands of incompetent officers
and as there were available no me-
groes having the necessary militia
ry training, they determined to
select the best white officers thew
could induce TO command them.
Other companies i'll South Carroll
ma, it is said, will follow their ex-
ample. In North Carolina, the
Third regiment has been muster
ed in with all negro officers, the

make the better record in the

THREE MEN AND A HOG.

weighed about 100 pounds. with another
nearly as large was taken in a wagon
to Pier 4. Light Street wharf. to be trans
ported to a point on the Eastern Shore.
While being removed from the wagon the
large hog made a dash for liberty and
charged into a crowd of pedestrians on

showed itself to be remarkably nimble

hind a barricade of tobacco boxes. 1t kept
its pursuers at bay biting and rushing
at all who endeavored to approach It.
The three men finally succeeded In get-
ting a rope round the hog and got 1t
back to Light Street wharf with consid-
cradle difficulty.
When at Light and Barre Streets the
animal again managed to break loose and
giving vent to ferocious grunts started
south on Light Street. pursued by the
three men. The hog ran under a wagon
and the wheels passing over 1t the vehicle
upset. The animals leg was broken by
the wheel of the wagon. but still 1: was
able to elude its pursuers and got safely
into Sloan Bros lumber yard. Here
again it kept the pursuers at bay for

Once more they managed to get ropes
around the hog and were dragging IL
across Light Street, when Mr.. W. C. Ham

arrest them.

cruelty to the animal and fined them S
