Discovered by n Woman.

Another great discovery has
been made, and that too, by a
lady in this country. "Disease
fastened its cluches upon her and
for eve years she withstood it's
severest 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 war to recovery by
purchasing of us u bottle Of DR. i.
Kings New Discovery for Con-
sumption, and was SO much re
lieved on taking first dose, that
she slept all night; and with two
bottles has been absolutely cured.
Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz."

Frankfort, KY, Dec. 2O.-Though

says:

The important feature Of the engagement Is
the fact which is disclosed that the insurgents
have been able to obtain a Krupp gun. 1t was
known at the time OF the outbreak OF the In

of the insurgents consisted of a few old guns
captured from the Spaniards. Acting Secretary
Allen saws that 1t is evident the Navy at Manila

MEXICANS FIGHT YAQUIS AGAIN.
REPORTS OF TWO BATTLES IN WHICH THE
LOSSES NUMBERED OVER ONE HUN
DRED-MEXICANs SAID TO KILL
ALL PRISONERS.

Los Angeles Cal, Sept. "a (SpecaD.-The Of
fetal reports Of two battles between Mexicans
apd Yaquis have just been received here. Cen
eral Luis Torres declared the campaign sus-
pended until October. but the Yaquis were not
consulted on that point. Lorenzo Torres also
appears to have made different arrangements.
On September IA Lorenzo Torres crossed the
river to Vicam. town supposed to have been
captured by Luis Torres In August, and found
Indians They attacked his rear guard and
running fight Of over half an hour followed The
report fails to say In which direction the rum
ming was done, but 1t says the Indians were dis
persed, and nine were killed. The Mexican loss
five killed and nine wounded. among the
latter being Lieutenant Colonel Navarro Of the
11th Battalion, one OF the best officers on the
Mexican side.
AS this report is from Lorenzo Torres. 1t may
be depended on correct.
The report Of another battle on September
Is comes from another source also official. and
its statements Of the number killed may be ac-
cepted. According to this report the forces
under Colonel Hernandez. the number not
stated encountered a thousand Indians near
Lake Xauqueca. a small lagoon between Torrin
and Potam.~ The Indians retired from the open
field and sought cover In the thick woods. where
beginning at 9 o'clock in the morning. The re-
port says the Indians defeated and dis
persed. leaving the field eighty seven dead
No wounded Indians figure In these reports,
because the Mexicans murder them.
The Mexican losses stated as fourteen
soldiers killed and thirty-slx wounded. Major
Ruiz, Of the National Guard was mortally
wounded, and Julian Espinosa. captain or the
Yaquis, friendly to the Mexcans and Tell
blates. a lieutenant In the Ten Years War
were also killed. The report winds up with
the invariable eulogy of the officers and troops
and says they have been constantly triumphant
ignoring the fact that the Yaquis whipped them
twice at Zehuita. and remain in places from
which they are reported to have been driven
several times
An interesting feature Of the official reports
is the statement that several inhabitants OF the
river towns, who were taken prisoners by the
Yaquis in July, have been released. and nave re-
turned 10 the headquarters in TORN. Heretofore
the Mexicans have represented the Yaqu1s as
savages who torture and kill prisoners, and
specific reports of the slaughter Of these prison
ers have been given out. The Mexicans XIII all
prisoners. even those taken without arms, and
they will not respect a flag Of truce from the
YaQuis.
Returned prisoners report that Tetebiate
alias Juan Maldonado, who was said TO have
been killed by the insurgent Yaquis at Bacum
at the beginning Of the outbreak, Is one OF the
chiefs of the hostiles.
