The Spanish Language.

is a very pretty tongue, however. There
is Latin in it Of course. Then there are
Punic, Gothic and Arabic. In these ele-
ments reside its construction and its his
tory Spain means hidden. " A long
time ago the Carthaginians discovered
the country. When the Romans discoV-
cred it, too, they threw a tOga over IT,
The Yisigoths stuck their gutturals
there. The Moors brought their fligrees
and arabesques Latin was beaten in
with the hilt of the sword, Gothic with
trowel and Arabic with scimiter.

Medicine

It ia true wisdom for every
body to take a thorough course of
Swift's Specific just at this season
of the year. The blood is sluggish
and impoverished, and the system
is full of impurities which should
be eliminated. In addition to
thoroughly cleansing the blood,
and toning up the system so as to
avoid lo.s of appetite and gen.
eral rundown feeling in tn e
spring, s. S. s. so strengthens and
builds up as to fortify against the
many forms of dangerous illness
that abound during the hot sum-
mer season. 1t is a very small
matter to take this precaution but
it insures health and strength all
summer. Swift's SDecihc

San Francisco. Nov. 1.-The transport
Peru which has arrived from Manila
brought fifteen soldiers and sailors, in
GLIDING a number of officers. The few
that were sick on the departure of the
vessel are now nearly recovered. Colonel
]. r. Brat, of the First Nebraska regi-
ment, is an exception. He IS seriously
i'll with gastritis and was confined to his
bed during the voyage.
The trip was uneventful The color ser
geant, Palmer, says that many of the
volunteer officers say that as soon as
it becomes evident that this country will
hold the Philippines they will send in
their designations Immediately. When the
Peru left Manila there were 1.500 sick
among the men and the physicians were
terribly dismayed at the progress that
smallpox was making. According to Pal
mer, in one day there we're ten deaths
from smallpox. Captain Linn said that
he knew of five deaths from that disease
IN a single day. The filth poured into the
canals by the Chinese was said TO be a
prolific source of disease.
With regard TO rumors first brought here
by the Rio de Janeiro that there were ia
talities in the Pennsylvania regiment
known to have been caused by the mis-
directed fire of a deta cfmeht of the First
CaHf&nia, Palmer said that Private Ba-
ker Of company Twas shot from behind
through the head, and Immediately an
officer rushed back to tell the Californ!ans
in the rear to cease their firing.
