City Council was held last night, May

Earhardt were present.
The Board of Commissioners Of Pub
lie works appeared before the council
| and asked the continuation Of tho ap-
preparation Of 5000 per month for the
next six months us during the past six.
Tho Board stated that everything was
being run rs economically as possible,
a. that there had been some increase
lately in the revenue from water and
lights, but that it would require 5000
per month additional for tho next six
months to meet all obligations and OK
pcnscs. But even at this tho city is

city gets its lights and water rs cheap
as it is being obtained by us. ,.~
This matter was referred to the ii.
nance committee with power to act.

was read. The smallpox will cost the
city altogether about 81 500 when ev-
erything is Strengthened up.

How to Look I00h.

Good looks are really more than skin
deep, depending entirely on a healthy
condition Of all the vital organs. If the

look; II your stomach ia dsordered,
you have n dyspeptic look; if your kid
neys are affected, you have Il pinched
look. Secure good health, and you will
surely hav" good looks. "Electric Bit
ters" Is gcod Alternative and Tonic.

EXHAUSTED HEROES.

Schley, CLARK and Evans on sick beds
ARE evidence of the terrible strain up
on the commanders of Uncle SANS
mighty fighting machines. These TO-
bust men are down with shattered ner-
vous systems after the relaxation of the
terrible strain of battle. They bore up
long enough to witness their grand
triumph and receive the plaudits of
their eountrymen and then collapsed
utterly.
1t is probably impossible for lands
men to appreciate the awful strain up
on the nervous organism of the COM
mander of battleshiD in action. He
is the whole mind and directing force
of the vessel and the responsibility and
effort and the mental and physical tor
ture of battle inflict wounds as terrible
as those of shot and shell
These heroes of the bridge have earn
ed long rest and the hopes of the
American people are for their speedy
recovery.

the rest Of Cuba, outside the America
lines. continue under the Spanish fae

that while a lucky hit may be made
by those who chance it" with stock
of goods, there is a greater likelihood
of being hit hard in the venture.
