Are the Bones of Villamil,
Spanish Admiral.
GENERAL WOOD IDENTIFIES
Remains Found on the Beach
East of EI Moro.

Santiago de Cuba, March 13.-Yesterday
General Leonard wood, military governor
OF the Department of Santiago. in the
presence of the adjutants general Of the
department, Colonel Beacon and Captain
Gilmore, Captain Scott, captain Of the
port and other officers, positively identi-
fed the remains Of the Spanish officers
discovered q few days ago among the
rocks on the shore about four miles west
Of e. Moro as those OF Admiral Villiamil.
who commanded the Spanish torpedo boat
destroyers in the naval battle which re-
suited in the destruction of Admiral Ger
vera's squadron Accompanied by the Of
fcers named and by others, General Wood
went in a tug to investigate personally as
to the truth OF the report that the body
of a Spanish officer had been found, tied
in an arm chair, at the point designated.
The report proved wei founded Nearly
opposite the point where the wrecked tor
pedo boat DESTROYER P!utOn lies, General
Wood found an arm chair with ropes
around it, skull bones on the ground
and the ragged remnants Of the uniform
OF a captain in the Spanish navy. 1t was
evident that tn ebuzzards had stripped the
bones of flesh.
1t is understood here-though as TO this
there is no certainty-that Admiral VII
lamil was taken ashore from the Pluton
in a dying condition. tied in an arm chair,
and the supposition is that he died imme-
diately on reaching the shore, the body
being left abandoned among the rocks,
where it remained undiscovered until a
few days ago. Admiral Villamil, It is
known, was wounded in the right arm and
left leg. General Wood put the bones to-
gether, showing the unmistakable marks
of wounds in these places. The Identified
ton was in every respect complete. In
the pocket of the coat was found the fleet
countersign for June rs, signed by the
late Captain Oviedo Bustamente, then
Admiral Cervera's chief of staff. Colonel
Beacon and Captain Gilmore carried the
arm chair, the tattered uniform and the
bones, tied together by a hNldkerchief. to
the tug, which lay about four miles off.
The Identification caused a sensation
among the Spaniards here, as Admiral Vii
lamil was one of the best known strate-
gists in the Spanish navy and a man held
in high esteem by his countrymen. Cen
eral Wood. through the war department,
will notify the secretary of state of the
finding of the remains, so that these can
be removed to Spain, if the Spanish gov
eminent so desires. Pending final dispo-
sition, they will be kept at the arsenal
here. The tattered uniform will also be
held subject TO Spain's wishes. The arm
chair is a tpresent in charge Of Captain
Scott.

all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.

assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI
FoRNIA FIG SYRUP Co. with the medi-

which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. 1t is

A Close Relationship.

The relationship which the baking
powders bear towards our health is com
ing to be appreciated.
There is no doubt that the indiges-
ton aud dyspepsia of which many Amer>
leans complain are caused by the indis,
crimina,e use of alum baking powders.
These baking powders, from their lower
price, and the persisteucy with which
they are advertised as pure cream of
tartar powders, or from the tempting
schemes with which they are offered. are
being purchased by many housekeepers.
That alum baking powders are uuwhole-
some is fact as well established as tha,
arsenic is a poison, There must accord
iugly be the greatest care exercised by
the housewife to keep them from her
food. A chemical analysis only will ex-
pose their true character. Even the
price at which they are sold is not al
ways mark to identity them.
There is certain safety in the use of
the well known brand, Royal Baking
Powder. The Royal is not only certified
by the Government Chemists free from
alum aud from all adultera,ion, but every
housewife feels confidence when using
il which she cannot have with any other
powder. Il is made from chemically pure
cream Of tartar, and is actually an anti
dyspepic, promoting digestion and add
l ing to the wholesomeness Of The food.
