BLANGO DESPERATE.
Attempting to Get Supplies Through
the Blockade Lines.

Washington, July l1.-Capt Gen.
Blanco is making efforts to get
in supplies through the American
blockade lines. He is now causing
to be loaded another steamer at a
Mexican port with the intention of
running the blockade and bringing
food and ammunition to the be-
leaguered city. This IS a large ship
of about $500 tons and she already
has taken on a bountiful supply Of
food and is expected to load 1000,
900 cartridges The craft is believed
to be the steamer Montevidio now
at Vera Cruz and protests have
been lodged with the Mexican gov
ernment by the American consul
taere against the clearance Of the
vessels. The Montevideo is an aux
iIiary cruiser of the Spanish navy,
it is said, and carries considerable
battery, including two Hontoria
guns and a secondary battery, which
would make her a most formidable
opponent for most of the smaller
United States craft now engaged in
blockading the southern coast of
Cuba and off Havana

ADMIRAL CERvERA's OATH.

Among the trouble now crowding
thick and fast around the old and
gallant Admiral Cervera, and cloud
ing the afternoon of life, there is
one-a matter of conscience which
must be a very serious impediement
toward his return to SPAN at
present, and for all future time, as
matters now stand, of which we have
seen no mention in the journals Ii
is, namely, this:
1t will be remembered that on the
eve of the departure of the Admiral
and his fleet from the Cape de
Verdes, he, attended by all the
officers and men OF the armada, at
tended a solemn high mass, at which
the banner of Spain was blessed, and
each and every member of the crews
of every vessel took a solemn oath
never to return to Spain except as
victors.
said, on reading the dispatches
announcing the affair, that the men,
from the Admiral down, had ban
ished themselves from Spain forever.
I note that the Admiral "does
not desire to return to Spain at pres
ent." Has not this foolhardy oath
something to do with this? AS a
matter of information, too, | would
inquire if the church affords any
means by which the Admiral and
his men can be absolved from the
consequences of the rash vow? Will
you, or some of your readers, versed
in such matters, explain the process
of absolutiOn to one not versed in
such contingencies?

Report of the Board of Survey.

Santiago de Cuba, July 1.-THE
board of survey appointed to ex-
anime the wrecks Of
the Spanish ships and to inquire
into the nature of their iniurie,
reports that only one ship can pos
sibly be saved. She is the lnfanta
Maria Teresa, the former flagship
Of Admiral Cervera.
A singular fact noted on the four
ships is that all the guns were
trained forward, and the theory
that they we're all directed to fire
on the Brooklyn is therefore
shown to be true.
The magazines of all the ships ex-
ploded and the effect was to blow
up the deeds and not completely
pulverize the hull or turn the keel
up, as was the battleship Maine.
This is looked upon as being impor-
tant.

Cubans Ohop OF Spanish Heads.

Savannah, Ga, July 11-Privates
James Keller, B G. KnehuIe, G. A.
Goodman, James Carroll and James
Brennan, wounded soldiers of the
Seventy-frst New York, left today
for New York on the steamer Kan
sas City. Private j. D. Hacksteer,
troop G, First United States cav
airy, was with them. He was shot
in the neck at Siboney, July 1. He
says when the Spanish continued
firing on our wounded men and the
Red Cross Gag, our men did not hes
itate to turn oyer the Spanish pris-
oners to the Cubans who cut of
their heads. The practice still con-
tinues, Hacksteer says, in spite of
Gen. Skaters denials.

Camara sailed through Suez,

Camara sailed through Suez,
And then sailed back to Spain,
The news he heard at t'other end
Gave the great man pain.
Camara is all right, he had heard
of Dewey, and did not care to ven-
ture to close to his fleet. He had
never heard of Watson ( and few OF
us had either and he had rather
fight a new man than one with a
record. We think with the ships
Watson will take along with him
that he will serve the Spaniard
commander in the same way the
other Spanish fleets were served,
and if the war last long enough
Camara should stop running and
take his medicine for the American
navy will certainly give it to him in
copious doses when they catch up
with him.

IN THE CLUTCHES
Santiago Surrounded by Soldiers and
a Surrender is Inevitable

SURRENDER Is 4AtFltaVle'
The bomblrdmtut of SUNDAY ai'
teruoon dld nothing more than cad,
the Spanish soldiers attention Ia
the fact that ournayy was uselesslY
burning a quantity Of powder and
that the shells they were throwing
fell far short Of the city and entirely
out of alignment. While this was
going ON the Americans were NOV
ing their land forces to places OF
advantage, aud now should the
Splujards attempt TO retreat, our
forces are in a position TO capture
them
General Sbafter now announces
that he has every avenue Of escape
cut of, and when he gives the
Spaniards a reasonable time to sur.
render, and they fail to do so, he
wlll send such a usiIIade as was
never before dreamed Of, and they
win be either captured or ami
hlated.
The signs of the times at the front
point to an early Surrender by the
the Spaniards, for as soon as they
see they are surrounded, they will
certainly give up.
After Santiago falls, it will be an
easy thing to take Havana, and the
fall of this place means that Spain
will sue for peace on any terms.

to's town liar and failed to return.
A good deal of sickness is reported
by the physician at this place Mr.
Johnnie Carlisle is at the point OF
death.
Mr.. S. F. Gardener started singing
school here last Monday. We hope
that our young people will improve in
their singing.
Supt. Scutt, NJ. L. Ryals and several
others attended the Topisaw camp
meeting and reported their trip a
pleasant one.
Mr.. Tom Drummonds and Miss Abi
Cole eloped last Sunday and were
married at Mr.. Sam Brister's. The
young people have our best wishes.
On last Monday old Mother Depriest,
who was ON her way home with her
sister, in law, got her leg broken at the
camp ground by an OK kick. Old Fa-
ther Depriest has been attacked for
the past week with serious spells of
bleeding at the nose.
On Sunday night, Aug. 14th, the
infant child of Scott and Ellen Davis

From the Courier we learn that

From the Courier we learn that
company of Hazlehurst gentlemen have
purchased the old compress engines at
that place and a lot and propose to
start an electric light plant, get the
city council to subscribe for ten 1000
candle power lights, and when the town
gets ready to buy, to sell the plant to
it. Whereupon the Courier adds, This
will be a long step forward, and will
nut the town in line with Canton,
Jackson and Brookhaven." If Hazle-
hurst wants to be like Brookhaven, she
will start right and own her own elec-
tric plant and waterworks from the
outset and not pay tribute to private
corporation for while and then invest
in lot of second hand machinery at
probably a big price. Brookhaven's
experience also demonstrates that there
is wisdom in providing for light and
water plant together. We notice In
the Hazlehurst project, as outlined oy
the Courier, that representative OF
the Fort Wayne Electric Corporation
is factor. 1t was representative OF
this corporation who tried to slde.tracK

RESULTS OE THE WAR.

The white doye of peace is again
broodiug over the scene. The pro-
tocol has been signed, an armistlce
has been proclaimed, and orders to
cease hostilities have gone forth to
both armies and navies. Before
the orders reached Dewey, how
ever. he had assailed the Spanish
forces in Manila, and the city Qast
Saturday, surrendered uncondition'
allv. General Miles was on his
triumphal journey through Porto
Rico when the orders reached him,
capturing towns so rapidly that he
had to telegraph for more flags;
and the net loss in his campaign
was three killed and a few others
severely wounded, some of whom
will die. The entire war has cost
us about 1000 in killed and wound
ed mot counting the victims OF
disease) and about $15O,OOO,OOO,
much of which is, however, in the
form of a permanent investment.
The war lasted ia days, and the
amount appropriated by Congress,
A56O,O 900, has not been half ex'
pended; in fact, less than $780,.
OOO,OOO has been actually paid out,
though $5O,OOO,OOO additional will
haye to be paid. AS a result, we
have Porto Rico, "the healthiest
of the Antilles" and one OF the
Ladrone Islands, and may soon
have Cuba and at least a naval
station in the Philippines. We
have increased our prestige abroad,
knit the various sections OF our
own country more firmly together,

Notwithstanding hearts that
commercialism is not the be-all and
end.all of our existence as a people,
and that political corruption has
not eaten so far into the nations
life as to paralyze her activities in
time of emergency. We come
out of the war a stronger and bet
ter nation, with a new outlook into
the future, facing a grander desti-
ny, with a keener sense OF our
responsibilities and relations to the
rest of the world. This war for
humanity has paid us far more
than it cost. A war for humanity
is the only kind that ever does or
ever will pay. May we never have
