PREPARING FOR WAR
COLOMBIA AND VENEZUELA
 WILL FIGHT.
Agents of the Belligerent Republics are in This Country Buying Munitions for Their
 Respective Nations.

New York, Dec. 20.-According to The Press, it is believed here that war Is about to be declared between the United IStates of Colombia and the Republic of 1 Vene zuela, and final preparations and plans for the conflict are being made by the agents of the two countries at pres ent in the United States.
 Warships and merchant vessels suit able for auxiliary cruisers or transports are being eagerly sought. General Diego De Castro of Barranquilla, Colombia who came here Tn November, has select ed the steamship Catania, which was a United States army transport during the war with Spain, as suitable to be used against Venezuela. There is much mys- tery about the Catania, which is owned by the Tweedy Trading Company. She arrived here from Boston on September 20. and has been held in this port ever since. Until a week ago the Catania was tied up at the American docks on Staten Island, and she is now at the foot or Fifty-sixtn Street. South Brooklyn. Bow ring & O.. agents for the Tweedy Trad ing Company, assert that the Catama as 1 not to become a filibuster, and must be bought outright.
 Senor Lamadrid, now in New Orleans. 'is reported to have brought with him from Colombia $600,00O and General De Castro's fun1s are said to aggregate $1, ,000, 900. The Catania changed from the British to the American flag upon be- l coming an army transport At the close of hostiI ies the Catania returned to the merchant service.

IT IS IMPORTANT
To Know What You Are Taking When Using Catarrh
 Medicines

Catarrh Is the short route to consump- ton, and the importance of early and judicious tIeatm nt of catarIh, whe ther located in the head, throat or bronchial tubes, cannot be too strongly empha- sized.
 The list of catarrh cures Is as long as the moral law and the forms in which they are administered, numerous and confusing, from sprays, inhal, rs washes, ointments and saives to powders, liquids and tablets.
 The tablet form is undoubtedly the most convenient and the most effective. but wi h nearly all adverti 3td catarrh reme- ies 1t is almost entirely a matter of guess work as to what you are taking in- to your system, as tn proprieto s, while making all sorts of claims as to what their medicines will do. always keep 1t a close secret as to what they are.
 The success and popula. ity of the new catarrh cure, Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, is largely because 1t not only cures catarrh but because catarrh sufferers who use tn SC table ts know what they are taking into tn ir syt ms. Stuart's Catarrh Tab lets are composed or Red Gum. Blood Root and similar valuable and antlseptic ingredients. and are pleasant to the taste and being dissolved in the mouth they take immediate effect upon the mucous lining of the throat, nasal passag and whole respi; atory tract.
 The cures that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets have accomp ished in old chronic ca es of catarrh are little short of remarkable, and the advantage of knowing what you are putting into your stomach is of para mount importance when 1t is remembered that the cocaine or morphine habit has been frequently contracted as the result of using secret catarrh remedies
 Stuart's Catarrh Tablets meet with cor dial approval from physicians, because their antiseptic character render them perfectly safe for the general public to use and their composition makes them a common sense cure for all forms of ca tarrhal troubles
 All druggists sell them at 50 cts. fol full sized packages. thu-Bat-sun.

Verdict in Wesley Jones's Case Not
 Satisfactory. However.


 Bay Minette, Dec. 20.-(Special)- )-'We the jury find the defendant guilty and fix the punishment at as years in the penitentary."
 After being out about an hour this was the verdict of the 'urv tonight in the case of Westley Jones, charged with the dastardly cri ne upon the little child of Rev. w. T. Rtncher.
 The case consumed the entire day and a number of witnesses were examined. The State was represented by Hon. John W. McAlpine. The defense had no attor- ney and Judge Anderson appointed Hon. Leslie Hall. There was a strong effort made to prove that the defendant was under fourteen years of age and this possibly prevented thu negro from hang ing.
 There Is considerable dissatisfaction at the verdict and thera are rumors of a lyhching in circulation.
