If the advice given in those three
words is needed, good health will fol-
low. City water is not good for many
reasons, principally, because it is con-
taminated with vegetable and putrid
matter of all descriptions. A simple
analysis shows this to be a fact

Ask your family physician about the
water, and if he is honest he will en-
dorse its use.
All who have drank the water speak
in the highest of terms for it.
This climate demands the use of
such a water and you cannot afford to
be without it.

Those who accept Christian Science,
however, have some duties to their
friends. Harold Frederic, like others,
refused to be guided by his friends, in
the choice of physician. But when
he died, he left his wife and children
to become a burden on these friends,
who had protested against what they
believed to be the malpractice of Chris

his own judgment, with the knowledge
that if it was wrong, his own friends

The schemes and precautions adopted
by the State to save men from the evils
of their own ignorance have compare
lively little value. Schemers spend
their time digging holes for the ignor-
ant to fall into. 'Fads" have peculiar
fascination for some people. The State
does its best work when it educates
the people to distinguish between what
is true and what is false. When it at
tempts to judge for them, it merely
keeps them in a state of childhood.

BALL AT THE PALACE.
GENERAL LUDLOWs INDEPENDENCE DAY
FUNCTION A GREAT SUCCESS
CUBAN NEWS.

Havana. July 9.-Havana society admits that
no other social functions held here of late years
could compare with the reception and ball given
last evening by General Ludlow. the Military
Governor Innumerable red white and blue cleo
trio lights thousands OF roses, hundreds or hags
and no end OF sabres. bayOnets and rl1es artis-
tically grouped made the scene within the palace
one never to be forgotten by the Thousand anu
more guests who attended It, Music was iur-
nished by two military bands All the loresh
Consus in evidence, most OF them wear
ing glittering orders, and many OF the women
were ablaze with diamonds. General Ludlo"
gave the function in honor Of independence
Day, and the representative Cubans and Span
iards Of Havana were present.
American officials here are surprised at the
large number of Cubans now applying IN the
Province of Santiago for a share in the Amer
lean gratuity The Cuban officers had assured
them that there not a hundred men IN
the province who would accept money from the
United States, basing the assurance on teie-
grams which purported 10 come from Santiago
Even when it became known that these dis
patches were inspired by Cuban malcontents
here and concocted in the Ingaterra cafe. II
was still felt that these opponents or rational
solution OF the Cuban Army question might be
n
to the American paymasters. Those who knew
the facts of the case believed that the Santiago
insurgents were much underestimate on the
payrolls. especially as the Cuban generals had
always claimed that more than 90 per cent OF
the army was in Santiago Province. II turns
out that the jealousy that existed In war times
between the eastern and western troops stu
exists and that those in Santiago Province are
more likely to reject than accept advice from
Havana.
At Sancti Spiritus out Of 1S0 men mustered
out payment has been made TO 40. Sixty
weapons have been delivered to the Mayor Of
the city Two hundred and eighty-four appli-
cations have been refused. The supplementary
lists will be ready in about ten days.
A dispatch from Puerto Principe says the
rural guards there were informed Of the pres
ence of "A band OF forty armed men near the
city and pursued them to Carvajal plantation,
where the outlaws gave fight from behind a
band made dash for the road and escaped,
losing one man, Luis Cruz, former resident
Of Nuevtas, and always a worthless character.
The rural guards had two men wounded. They
captured fifteen horses which the outlaws had
been leading. The band recently stole eight
rifles, a number Of revOlvers and machetes, and
a quantity Of cartridges with which ii was
evidently intended to arm additional men.

( CIVIL SERVICE PROTEST.
ASKS CONTROLLER TO REVIEW
DECISION REGARDING DEPUTY
MARSUAT,S APPOINTMENTS

Washington. July 9-The Civil Service Commits
sion has made public its letter to the Secretary oi
the Treasury. dated June % last, asking that the
Controller OF the Treasury be requested TO revle"
his recent decision in the matter OF the alleged ne
gal appointment Of Deputy United States marshals.
In the course of his decision the Controller said;
will not go back of The certificate Of appoint
ment by the head Of Department or appoiihtlI5
power where no direct law has been violated, ana
attempt to ascertain whether such oincer IN mar
ing such appointment. has disregarded some rue
or regulation Of The Civil Service Commission or
some rule or regulation OF his own regarding the
classified service.
The Controller makes a clear distinction between
the violation Of law by the President and the viola
ton OF the rules and regulations. and says:
prefer to let the responsibility rest where It
Ears in nv oGice-to recognize the certificate Of
appointment of the head OF Depar tment or other
appointment Is not in violation OF law or without
authority or law. $500,
You are authorized 10 pay such deputy II his ac-
count I'm all other respects Is correct.
The Commissioners in their letter contend that
the appointments under consideration were made In
violation Of the express terms Of the law and quote
numerous authorities to show that the rules and
regulations have all the force and effect OF law ana
that exceptions to these rules and regulations can
be legally made only I'm the manner provided by
the law The letter concludes follows
Thus from another point OF view also. must
arrive at the same conclusion az indicated in the
early part of this discussion, namely: , .
First that the Controller does not intend 10
hold that so long as place once In the classified
service is not excepted from the requirements incl
dent thereto an appointment can be made 10 such
place without compliance with the provision OF tire
rnent TO be made through examnation and certi-
ncation by the Commission; and, second that con-
sequently the only question left at issue is now II
at all place once in the classified service can De
legally excepted withdrawn from the require
ments Of law incident to its classification. . - .
And IT has already been pointed out in tho hrst
part OF this communications; ., s.at.o
First that the law prescrbes certain definite
manner in which only the place can be thus, WIN
drawn or excepted Second, that In the case before
cepted in the manner prescribed and thlrd, conSe-
quently the conclusion cannot be escaped tnaI t ~.
that prescribed was Illegal and void ana hence tne
person appointed was not entitled 10 any coiiPeH
sation or emolument accruing to the ONCE.
