Insurgent Leader Fell In the
Fight Near Cervantes.

Manila. Dec. 11.-Gen- Gregorfo del
Pillar, commanding Aguinaldo's body
guard, was killed by Major Peyton
March's battalion of the Thirty-third
infantry, in a fight is miles northwest
of CervanteS, December 3.
According to reports which General
Young obtained from escaped Spanish
prisoners at Vigan several days ago,
Major March left the coast, where he

tered Gen. Pillar on a fortified trail.
They fought for four hours, during
which time 20 FilipinOs were killed or
wounded. The American loss was one
man killed and six wounded.
The Spaniards report that Major
March is still pursuing the insurgents.
Pillar was one of the leaders of the
present and of the anti-Spanish revolu-
ton. He was a mere youth and was
reported to have graduated at a Euro
pean university. Professor Schurman
met him as a member of the first peace
commission, and rated him as remarka-
bly, clever.

PINE LOGS IN DEMAND.
MINES ota Railroads Secure Contracts
to Deliver 600 Million Feet.

Duluth, Mimi, Dec. 11.-COntracts for
the delivery of about 600 million feet of
pine logs to mills in this section by
railroads have been closed recently. All
this is in addition to the enormous
quantity that will be handled on log
ging railroads owned by the companies
that also do the logging.
OF these contracts the Wisconsin di-
closed a total of about 250 million feet,
part of which will be delivered at this
city and part at Ashland. The Duluth
and Iron Range road viii haul $50 mill
lion feet to this city and the other iron
range roads about 100 million feet. In
northern Minnesota alone an army of
5000 men Will attack the standing pine
this winter.
Last week sales were made here of 30
million feet of the lowest grades of the
cut to be made after April at top
prices Several mills sold their entire
seasons cut of these grades, receiving
$1,000 for what was worth $3.50 last
February, $13 for what then brought
$500, and $3.50 for a grade that in past
years has been considered worth almost
nothing.
Every lumberman who will dispose
of his product in advance is being i'm
portuned to do so and 400 million feet
of Duluth lumber could be sold in
week to buyers from New York New
England, eastern Michigan and Chi
Cago. This viii be practically all next
years cut for the mills on deep water
in this -harbor. Shipments by water to
these eastern points out of Lake Super
iOr this year exceed one thousand mill
lion feet and a single months for
warnings are more than was sent in
whole summer so late as 1887. More
than 125 ships have been engaged ex-
clusively in carrying lumber from this
lake to the east this year, and at prices
that have paid profits that would buy
the ships at last springs values.

THE HEALTH HABIT.
just as Easy to Form as Any other.


We do not deliberately form our pet
habits, but they are unconsciously ac-
quired and grow as we grow, and by
the time we learn they are hurting US,
ken.
Then. why not form a good habit. a
habit which will cOunteract the many
bad ones, in other words contract the
questionable habit of being always
well.
The best health habit to get into is to
nave and keep a vigorous stomach; II
you have a healthy digestion you can
drink your beloved coffee, smoke your
faVOrite brand of tobacco, with little or
no harm; the mischief begins when
these things are forced upon the faith
Iul stomach, without any assistance.
Form the habit of taking after meals
some harmless but efficient digestive
which viii relieve the stomach of
much extra work.
Nature furnishes US with such diges-
uVes and when they are combined in
such pleasant preparation as Stuart's
Dyspepsia IabletS, they give the over
worked stomach just the necessary as
slStance to secure perfect digestion
without any of the harmful effects Of
cathartics and similar drugs.
The habit of taking Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets after meals is as necessary
TO the weak stomach as food itself, and
indeed to get the benefit from food eat
en-, nothing better and certainly moth
ing safer can be used.
Many families consider Stuart's Tab
lets as essential in the house as knives
and forks
They consist entirely of natural di-
gestive principles without the effect or
characteristics of drugs; they have no
caJhartc action, but simply go to work
on the food eaten and digest it.
Take into account your bad habits
and the expense they entail and then
invest fifty cents in a box of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets and see if your di-
gestion for the next month is not vast
" improved.
Ask the clerk in any drug store the
name of the most successful and popu-
lar stomach remedy and he will say
"Sturart's.''
