S. E. Brees Of Orange, Had an Experience Recently which
is Intensely Interesting-hn
Example for Others.
From the Lake Revtew. osakis. MINI.

The following account of a farmers re-
markable experience was recently told a
reporter by Mr.. S. f. Brees, one of the oldest
settlers and Most prominent farmers of the
town of Orange, Douglas County, MINI.
Mr.. Brees is town clerk, having held this
position for several years, and is a gentleman
of unlmpeachable integrity and honesty.
This experience of Mr.. Brees is certainly
interesting. He says:
In August, 1891, as | was on my last
days drive with the harvest team, | sud
denly became faint and weak. Every move
or exertion was made with an effort. | rode
home and rested a number of days but did
not obtain much relief. The top of my head
had peculiar feeling. could not rest or
sleep. 1t went on this way until was nearly
crazy. l had the grip previous to this and
it left me with severe cough and also dull
pain about the region of the heart. | con-
suited a prominent physician and took his
medicines for about two months Some relief
was obtained. The physician pronounced
nv trouble a difficulty Of the heart arising
from the after effect of the grip. My family
were alarmed about me, and for two years
they would not let me go away alone for fear
| would never get home alive. finally con-
suited another physician. He told me the
same as the first, but thought he could help
me. ] took his medicine six months, and
for while obtained considerable benefit,
but the old symptoms returned and was as
bad as ever.

GOMEZ WITHDRAWS:

The action of the so-called Cuban as
sembly toward Gen. Gomez has not
very re-assuring effect in the establish
ment of confidence as to the ability of
the Cubans to govern themselves, if
those who constitute the said assembly
are to be taken as representative of the
Cubans who will participate in public
affairs, and doubtless they are. The
deposing of Gomez seems to have been
prompted more or less by jealousy. 1t
is charged against him that he exceed
ed his authority, that he has become
too kindly disposed toward the United
States and that he refused to cooperate
with the assembly as ne should Gomez
may have been somewhat independent
of the assembly, but this may be ac-
counted for on the ground that is not
a representative body of Cuban people
but of the army merely. But whatever
Gomez faults may have been, he is
easily the leading Cuban of the day,
enjoys the confidence, and was in every
respect the best qualified to take the
lead in forming a stable government
for that island. 1t looks now as though
the assembly over-reached itself in retir-
ing Gomez. 1t has Eweakened its elf
with the people, whom it does not rep
resent, While it has strengthened him
with the people, and seven the army,
But Gomez has shown himself the
patriot in submitting to the decree of
the assembly, rather than refusing and
attempting to foment trouble. 1t is
also said that he has announced his in
tention to withdraw from Cuba, and re-
turn to his old home in San Domingo,
If this is true it will be serious blow
to the Cuban cause. Cuba seems to be
indeed / unfortunate, with her great
leaders. Maceo'wa cruelty assassinat-
ed, Garcia died, and,now Gomez with
draws. The placing of the formation
Of a new government there in the hands
of small men, actuated 'more by petty
jealousies, than by lofty patriotism,
does not bode well for Cuba's future,
and would seem to retard the day when
stable and independent! government
will get under way.

RAILS COME UP.
Omaha Road Abandons the Tub Factory
Spur.

A force of men is at work tearing up
the rails of the Omaha track in the
south part of the city. The track is to
be torn up from the tub factory to the
Milwaukee crossing west of the slough,
and the rails will be taken away for use
on side tracks. 1t is estimated that
eight men will be employed fifteen OF
twenty Gays tearing up the track, The
track has been abandoned since March
LIST, on account of the trestle across the
slough being unsafe, and the tub fac
tory people have been obliged to buy
another team and haul the output of
the factory to the dep is
1t is possible that the track will be
