TALK WHILE WAITING

The Pope is still looked to by Spain
to make a fresh effort in behalf OF
peace. He may cry Peace Peace, but
there will be no peace"
Just as We predicted, as to Cuba's in
d~ependence,if secured, would he the,taik
of to this country, thereby
bringing in 100000 Chinese and over
500. 900 negroes. The Loyal Soldiers
Union of Indianapolis favors the war
movement on Cuba, and says that af-
ter peace practically reigns' that

Australian system, to decide whether
Cuba be annexed to the United States
or become In independent republic. Lnls

republicans (and perhaps some O. the
Hawaii democrats) would he moving
to annex Cuba as a highly patriotic
meritorious and necessary act. The
real purpose would be to get more re-
publican negro votes and perhaps a
majority Of the whites.
General 10 Wheeler is a southron
and was a gallant cavalry fighter, OUT
he is wrong in his purpose to get the
United States government to rely upon
the south for troops to be sent to cuba
anon the score of yellow fever. South
ern whites would die as soon IN Cuoa
as northern whites. Outside Of two or
three cities there are no whites who
could TO have immunity from vel
lev iack's2attacks. Let the north do it's
full share of invasion if there is to be
any and let General Wheeler stop his
f~oolishness." The Montgomery AdVer-
tiser %overhauls the general and says
'sthat he doubtless did Tot intend it, but
his statements ITO the secretary or war
are equivalent to the declaration that
the south is just as much of a hot ped
of fevers as Cuba. This is ridiculous,
of course, but it is rather a common
idea north anyhow, and our eager Ala
barna warrior has not done this section
a service in helping to confirm or
spread that impression" Negro troops
can stand a hot climate, infected too,
like Cuba better than any other. Send
100. 900 blacks to Cuba to whip out the
horrid Spaniards. They would be
warmly welcomeI by Cubans, Span
iards and climate. The south has moth
ing to gain in a war with Spain except
suffering, wounds and death and some
glory perhaps. it will suffer in al
other RESPECTS The south did the mair
fighting in several wars. Tt is time tt
rest. IT should be content to do it's par
manfully and periodically, bu no
hastily. Do not be in a HURRY to rush
no Cuba just as the fateful yellow
fever season is at hand. The mos
eminent physician in Havana wrote ar
elaborate essay "a few years ago upor

Any physician will tell you that the medi-

DIR. Greene's Nervura will cure them.
1t is, at the present day, the only recog-

Parents, therefore, whose children mani

headaches, dizziness, disturbed sleep, rest

shoulders, or jerking of head, should at

Nervura. 1t is perfectly harmless, being
made from pure vegetable remedies, Won

SOPHOMORE'S
GRAND BALL.
Successful Social Affair
in SayleS Hall.
ATTENDANCE WAS LARGE.
The College Athlete Was, as Usual,
Special Favorite.
ATTENDANCE WAS LARGE.
PROFUSE FLORAL DECORATIONS

Those people that commonly suppose
that a sophomore knows Just a TITLE less
than the average freshman simply be-
cause he thinks he knows great deal
more. would have found, had they been
present Mt the sophomore ball last night,
that he knew at least one thing well,
and that was how to entertain-by no
means small accomplishment.
The present sophomore class has been
held up TO special ridicule among college
men because Of the two Ights occurring
at the emu of 1900, because OF their defea
in football as the hands Of the freshmen
and for various other reasons about as
valid as the above. But all has been dis
PEELED by the great success of the ball last
night. They certainly showed that they
were "the Ieople.
The ball was held in Sayles hall whicl,
was deliberately decorated for the occas-
ion. There was a great IrC fusion of
palms, ferns, lilies primrosss. az lsGs
aud other plants giving decorative effect.
A corner of the hall snecialiy trimmed
formed the reception room. whsrs during
the evening the following ladies received:
Mrs II. Benjamin Andrews, Mrs Joseph
Balch, Mrs. Edward &. Buokliu, Mrs. III.
Nelson Campbell. Jr., Mrs George l..
Collins, Mrs. Louis w. Downs, Mrs.
Louis r. Foster. Mrs George q. Night
ingals, Mrs. John X. IA. Nightingale,
Mrs. Charles ID. Owen, Mrs. Howard
Richmond, Mrs. Frank a. Ssyles Mrs.
Howard q. Sturges Mrs. William Is.
We,den and Mrs. William Wurts White.
The attendance was very select as the
numb ber Of invitations was purpOsely linn
tied. There were quite mum Der of other
collegians present he sides the sopbomores
and many Of the city's bellies were pres
ent, ana there were many handsome
costumes s,en on the floor. As Is usual
on such an occasion, the college athlete
was the favorite OF the evening and he
was very much In evidence last pight.
The affair was in full blast shortly after
10 o'clock. and IL was not till the early
hours Of the morning that ths hall was
loft 20 its own classic reveries Then the
and II goes OH record ss one CT the most
successful ever held at Old Brown. The
music was furnished by Reeves orchestra,
and the waltz and the two step were the
favorite dances. When the numbers were
about halt completed there was an inter
mission during which the caterer served
delightful refrt shment
The arrangements for the ball were
made by the following committee: An

Clifford Spence Anderson. Harris Howard

"Our little boy Royal had fits. He
would drop TO the floor, sometimes for
ward, sometimes backwards, as if he was
dead, and if he was eating, his head would
drop on to his plate, so we had to hold up
his head all the time he was eating. If he
went across the floor someone had to lead
him, and the slime would run from his
mouth. His stomach was SO weak that
his food would not digest, and every
muscle of his body would twitch SO it was
impossible for him to do anything.
=" For two years we took him to our
local doctors and they could do nothing to
help him, and they advised us to take him
to a specialist. We did so and he told us
that he had epilepsy and was incurabe.
He lost his speech for six weeks and con-
tinued having the fits so he would have
nine or ten in a night. We saw DIR.
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy
advertised in the paper, so got bottle and
gave II TO Royal as directed, and in three
DAYS the fits left him and we have not seen
any of them since. Now he goes TO school
and seems to be as healthy as anyone
can be"
DIR. Greene, "a Temple Place, Boston,
Mass, can be consulted absolutely free in
regard TO any case, personally or by letter.
