Life among the Indians is not so bad
The idea prevails with some that the
Indians are still wild and uncivilized
but not so. The good old Indians have
long been settled, and they make good
citizens, neighbors, and noble, Chris

you will often hear good old Indian

HOW WANAMAKER MADE HIS FOR.
TUNE.

Washington Telegram to the Chicago
Record:
A business man of Philadelphia
told me the other day that Mr..
Wanamaker's profits from his
Philadelphia store last year were
over ST, 100000, and that those
from his New York store would
run close to that figure, The Sat-
urday before Christmas the re-
ceipts in New York were even
greater than those in Philadelphia
and exceeded 100000. The New
York store has paid a profit from
the very day it was opened, al
though two firms which occupied
the establishment since A. T.
Stewards death have failed. The
reason of Mr. Wanamaker's great
success, both in New York and
Philadelphia, is his skillful and
successful advertising. 1t has
been his rule to confne his adver-
tising to newspapers and maya
zines, on which he has spent an
nually moreo than $500. 900 in
Philadelphia. The advertising
bills of his New York establish
ment exceeded even that sum last
year.

FROM CUBA.

Private Bub Young, of Co. F. Third
Georgia Regiment, writes to his par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. j. B. Young, at this
place, as follows:
Neuvitas, Cuba, Jan. %, 1S99.-After
eight days and nights travel, we have
arrived here. We did not see land in
six days. On the water we saw fish
and birds. After landing, our eyes were
greeted with all kinds of fruit, growing
lemons, bananas, cocoanuts, pineapples,
and other tropical fruits, that we
don't know the name of. had rather
be at home, of course, but / like it
much better than / thought / would.
We see many pretty girls here, but we
can only lift our hats to them and re-
ceive smile in return, as we don't un-
derstand their language.
Don't know how long we will stay
here. We have orders to be ready to
leave ssany time. Some talk of being
sent to Manila. I hope they will.
Everybody says it is fine place.
This is nice place where we are
camped, on high hill, and I think,
healthy 1t is very hot. We go in
bathing nearly every day. Seems
strange to go in bathing in winter time,
but it is SO hot here we can hardly
stand it from ten O'Clock until three.

DISCOVERED BY A WOMAN.

Another great discovery has been
made, and that too, by lady in this
country. Disease fastened its clutch
es upon her and for seven years she
withstood its severests tests, but her
vital organs were undermined and death
seemed imminent. For three months
she coughed necessarily, and could not
sleep. She finally discovered a way to
recovery, by purchasing of Us bottle
of DR.. Kings New Discovery for Con-
sumption, and was so much relieved on
taking first dose, that she slept all
night; and with two bottles, has been
absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs.

BROOKLYN STRIKE
Cars Running on Elevated and Sur
face Railways with Green
Hands and Policemen.
STRIKERS ARE COMPETENT
They Declare That the Railway Company
Should Obey the Law As Well As
Their Employees Men Demand
Ten Hour Day.

| New York, July 17.-Promptly at
o'clock this morning the Brooklyn Rap
| id Transit Company started cars out or
| most of its lines. No disturbance has
been reported. The police seem to have
perfect control of the situation. Many
| cars We're manned with Green hands
Brooklyn was quiet last night, although
! 5000 policemen had their hands full
earlier in the day. The first day of the
street car strike developed the fact that
a very large portion of the employees
while they may be disappointed with
their treatment, are not willing to
strike. Veteran labor leaders, while
they sympathize with the strike, Brook
lyn men say, are not well enough or
ganized. Peter Spada, a messenger, Il
years old, who was struck with stone
while riding on Green Point car, is ex-
pected to die. The stones were hurled
at nom union motormen and conductors,
but one missile struck the boy over the
right eye, fracturing the skull.
New York, July 17.-About two thirds
of the cars on all lines except the Mas
sau system are running this morning.
The cars are all policed with from one
to four patrolmen in each, except the
Putnam and Halzy street line, which is
running as in normal times.
Judging from the number of cars run
ming this morning the company has
M aY,1xy Of r., ooIx
in operation on all roads other than
those which comprise the old Nassau
lines. Charles w. Mackenzie, chairman
of the committee of strikers, said they
would surely win out.
Near the barn on Troy avenue and
Bergen street a car was stoned by
mob, but no one was injured. At VAN
dervere park, on the Flatbush line, troll
ley wires were cut and traffic delayed
over an hour.
General Master Workman Parsons
said: '"The main question in dispute be-
tween employees and corporations is,
Shall a ten-hour work day be en-
forced?' 1t should also be remembered
that this ten-hour law for surface rail-
way employees was made to protect our
citizens from the danger of having troll
ley cars operated by men who, from ex-
eessive toll, are untitled for work, rath-
er than enacted especially for the ben
eft of the men themselves. Aside from
the purpose Of enforcing the ten-hour
law, the question at issue before the
public is, Should the company be made
to respect our laws:"

Striking Again at Cleveland.

Cleveland, Ohio, July 1.-THE con-
ductor, and motormen Of the Big Con-
solidated street railway system who were
on strike last month went out again
this morning. Eight hundred men are
affected. They claim the company
has not lived up to the agreement which
ended the former strike.
Cleveland, O., July 17.-During the
early hours to-day not car was run
ming on any Of the Big Consolidated
lines. Officials Of the company asked
for police protection. Large crowds are
congregated at the street car barns Of
the company. Business Agent Pratt, Of
the strikers, said: Three weeks have
elapsed, and the company has failed to
live up to any part Of its agreement;
neither has 1t shown any intention Of
doing so.'
Bottles and stones were thrown from
sidewalks and windows at cars, but no
one was injured. Mayor Farley is en-
phatic in declaring that no such riot.
ing as marked the previous strike will
be tolerated.

COMPLAIN OF CENSOR
Newspaper Correspondents in Philip
pines Make Sensational State
ments to the Public.
IMPORTANT FACTS IF TRUE
New York Sun, Associated Press and 0the,
Correspondents Unite in Saying That
the Situation in the Philippines Is
Deliberately Misrepresented.

Manila, July II, via Hong Kong, July
the censorship Of press dispatches from
Manila, which prevented cabling to the
United States anything that did not re-
| fleet the official views Of important
events and conditions, resulted in a
united effort on the part of correspond
ents here to secure the abatement Of the
| rigor of the censorship. A statement
was presented July 8, to Major General
Otis with a request for permission to
telegraph it to the United States. Cor
respondents also asked permission to
cable their respective papers all facts
and different phases of events as they
transpired here. General Otis finally
promised greater liberality, agreeing to
pass all matter that he might consider
not detrimental to the interests of the
United States. Otis appointed Captain
Green as his staff censor.
| The statement Of correspondents is as
follows: undersigned, being all staff
correspondents of American newspa-
pers, stationed at Manila, unite in the
following statement:
1--WE believe from official dispatches
| made public in Washington that the
| people Of the United States have not re-
uation in the Philippines, but that these
dispatches presented ultra optimistic
views that are not shared by the gener-
al officers in the field, We believe that
the dispatches incorrectly represent the
existing conditions among the Philip
pines in respect to dissension and de-
moralization resulting from the Amer
lean campaign, and to the brigand char
acter of their army. We believe that
the dispatches err in the declaration
that the situation is we'll in hand and in
their assumption that the insurrection
can be speedily ended without greatly
increased force. We think that the
tenacity of the Filipino purpose has
been under estimated, and that the
statements are unfounded that volun-
teers are willing to engage in further
service. The censorship compelled us
to participate in this misrepresentation
by excoriating or altering uncontrovert-
ed statements Of facts on the plea that
General Otis stated that they would
alarm the people at home or have the
United States by "the ears"
fications-Prohibitio Of reports;
suppression in full of reports of field

erations and the suppression of the

Pension for Injury at Santiago.

Yesterday Attorney B. M. Read re-
ceived official notice from Washington,
D. c., that pension had been allowed
Stephen Easton, Of Santa Fe, from No.
vember 1S, 1898, at the rate Of $25 per
month. Mr.. Read had filed claim for
the pension on the above date for Eas-
ton, at that time Of Abiquiu, but now
residing in this city. The ground for
the application was deafness caused by
the explosion Of a shell from Cervera's 8
fleet at Santiago de Cuba. Easton was
one of the rough riders, and was In the
thick Of the battle when the shell BURST
ed within few yards Of him and caused
thereby the loss Of hearing, and for a
time the loss Of nearly all his faculties,
