PROMPT INVASION
 OF CUBA PLANNED

interior and nobilizing his troops In Havana and other ports on the north ern coast. It would be a perilous situation for 5000 American troops. But 50000, together with the in- surgents, would be able to hold their ground until Sampson, after taking Porto Rico, could return to Havana and lombard the batteries and the city, while the troops attacked from the rear.
 It is confidently expected that on Friday next the City of Peking, con- voyed by the Charleston, will sail out of the Golden Gate with as many troops as she can carry to Manila. Supplies shipped from the East on Sat urday are due to arrive in San Fran cisco on Thursday morning, and there now seems to be no reason why the first expedition to the Philippines should not sail on the next day.
 General B. Tracy's cali on the Presi- dent to-day revived the rumor that he is to be made Military Governor of the Philippines, and the fact that Gen. eral Tracy would neither affirm nor deny the correctness of the report, or discuss it at all, was calculated to strengthen the belief that the ex-Sec- retary of the Navy will be the first it is not he, General Merriam com manding the Department of California and the Columbia, will be the man. It is regarded as certain that the ap pointment lies between these two. A week ago it was thought that General Lee would be made Military Cover nor, but 1t is now announced that he will be given command of the First Division of Volunteers sent to Cuba.

SAUSALITO, May 9.-The Board Of Town Trustees splashed noisily through the Rubicon tonight to where the pool room banners faunt in triumph over the water front forces, and the hill faction is left to mourn.
 On the adoption of the ordinance licens- ing bookmakng on races, General Dick inson voted nay.
 Petitions were read from William H. Harrison & Co, Antone Lawrence and Joseph Nunez, Zeke Abrahams and Joe Harvey asking for licenses to run pool rooms. Harrison and Harvey, on motion of Sylva, were granted licenses and the other petitions were laid over until next Monday evening.
 The expected conflict between J. H. Pryor and Trustee Sylva failed to mate rialize, as Pryor took the hint extended at the last meeting and resigned as Town Re Recorder. c. w. Simpton was appointed in his place.

Washington, May J.
 An invasion of Cuba by 50.000 regu- lar and volunteer troops, the destruc- tion of the Spanish fleet if 1t Is on this side of the Atlantic and the imme- diate capture of San Juan, Porto Rico. if 1t Is not. These plans are to be put into execution at once.
 It Is freely predicted tonight that within twenty-four hours news will come that Admiral Sampson has com menced to lombard the batteries of San Juan. A general belief now pre- vails that the Alfonso XIII is the only Spanish warship in the vicinity of Porto Rico or on this side of the At lantic with the exception of the Alfonso XII, now in Havana harbor Therefore, operations will be immedi- ately begun by Sampson. The AL fonso XIII will be captured or de- stroyed and the batteries of Porto Rico reduced before the Spanish fleet can cross the Atlantic.
 It has also been decided that there shall be no further delay in the mili- tary operations. There will be an in- vason of Cuba by our regular and volunteer troops probably within ten days. It has been decided by the War Board that it is not necessary to definitely locate the Spanish vessels, for Admiral Sampson is able to take care of them wherever they may be. A few weeks ago it was decided that only troops to the number of about 5000 would be sent to Cuba. It was not to be an invasion, but a mere landing" in order to establish base of supplies from which subsistence and ammuni- ton could be sent to the insurgents, who were to do the fighting against Blanco's forces.
 Reliable reports from Havana state that General Blanco Is abandoning the

An American at Court.

Formerly such divinity hedged kings
and queens that treason WAS not along In
fearing to peep at them. Americans in
citizens dress also were kept at q distance.
In Tho North American Review Sir Will
liam Russell, LID, narrates an aneodote
In this connection In which Secretary
Seward had part:
Mr.. Seward, who had been received
| with great respect in Rnssia, am to Eng
land and naturally desired to go to court.
He was TO be presented at the levee by the
United States minister as a senator Of the
United States.
He drove off at the appointed time to
the palace, but was stopped IN tho corridor
by a gentleman in uniform, who said lie
could not pass because he was not ''prOp.
erly dressed"
Mr.. Seward was in full evening dress,
black dress coat, wa!stcoat and trousers
and white oravat, but 1t would not do.
>The gentleman explained that he must
have knee breaches, shoes and stockings
that was absolutely necessary. An idea
struck Mr.. Seward. There was \ nioe old
man about his size, the porter Of tho hotel
he was staying at, who sat In a box In the
hall, and off he drove.
Immense success! The porter had .
beautiful new pair Of knee breeches and
black silk stockings and low shoes. A
few dollars for the loan was all that was
needed. Mr.. Seward was speedily equip
ped, drove back to the palace, where he
was admitted, and finally had the pleasure
Of making his bow in the hotel porter's
clothes to her majesty.

The New Evil Of Tea-Smoking.

Physicians in various parts of the
country report an alarming growth OF
~tea-smoking. The habit is contracted
by those whose nerves are d~isordered,
who can't sleep, whose digestion is i'm
perfect, whose liver is out of order, who
get the ''blues'' and feel their strength
departing. 1t seems strange that SUI
ferers from the above disorders should
not cure themselves with Hostetter S
Stomach Bitters. This is IA medicine
which whets up the appetite, regulates
the bowels, steadies the nerves and in
duces sound sleep. Those who take it
find that it cures dyspepsia, and there
is no bad taste in the mouth in the
morning, no feeling of weakness after
the DAYS work is done. 1t is well worth
a trial

A CRITICAL Time
During the Battle of
Santiago.
SICK OR WE'LL, A RUSH
NIGHT AND DAY.
The Packers nj the Battle of Sam
liagO de Cuba were all Heroes.
Their Heroic Efforts in Getting
AmmunitiOns and RatiOns to
the Front Saved the Day.

p. e. Butler, of pack-train No. 3, writ
ing from Santiago de Cuba, on July 23,
says: "We all had diarrhoea in more or
less violent form, and when we landed
we had no time to see a doctor; for it
was a case of rush and rush night and
day to keep the troops supplied with
ammunition and r~ations, but thanks to
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy, we were able to keep at
work and keep our health; in fact, | sin
cerely believe that at IL critical time
this medicine was the indirect saviour Of
Our army, for if the packers had been
unable to work there would have been
no way of getting supplies to the front.
There were no roads that a wagon train
could use. My comrade and myself had
the good fortune to lay in a supply of
this medicine for our pack-train before
we left Tampa, and Iknow in four cases
it absolutely saved life"
The above letter was written to the
manufacturers of this medicine, the
Chamberlain Medicine Co., Des Moines,
Iowa. For sale by A. c. Ireland.
