Blood

We live by our blood, and on
t. We thrive or starve, as
our blood is rich or poor.
There is nothing else to live
m or by.
When strength is full and
pirits high, we are being rc-
.reshed, bone muscle and brain,
n body and mind, with con-
rinual flow of rich blood.
This is health.
When weak, in low spirits,
no cheer, no spring, when rest
IS not rest and sleep is not
sleep, we are starved our blood
IS poor there is little nutri-
ment IN it.
Back of the blood, is food,
to keep the blood rich. When
1t fails, take SCOTS Emulsion
OF Cod Liver Oil. 1t sets the
whole body going again-man
woman and child.

Naval Officer Explains
Why He Was Not Present
When Cerveras Fleet
Was Sunk.
(By Associated Press.)

~ OSTON, July PA Boston news
~ paper man has obtained an au-
- thorized interview with Rear Ad-
miral Sampson upon the points in con-
trOversy as a result of the Santiago
campaign.
The questions and answers which fol-
low were transcribed and the typewrit-
ten copy of the interview submitted to
the admiral for corrections:
Admiral, you have been severely crit
icized of late for starting to Siboney on
the morning of the Santiago battle.
What was your reason for SO doing?"
Il went to SibOney upon the urgent
request OF Major General Shafter, who
had demanded council of war. He be-
ing i'll at that time, and moreover, be-
ing senior to me, it was incumbent upon
me to go to him. I chose the time of
day when it seemed least likely that
Cerveras fleet would come out of the
harbor.
This opinion is substantiated by the
fact that Cervera has been severely
criticized for choosing this most inop-
perfume time rather than waiting until
just before dark, when he would have
had an opportunity to scatter his ships
with a good chance Of some of them
escaping in the darkness"
you have also been criticized for
weakening your fleet by sending the
battleship Massachusetts to Guantan-
amo for coal. Your critics say you
should have been courtmartialed for
not keeping your entire force on the
blockade line and coaling from GOLFERS -
This weakening of the line was an
unavoidable feature of the blockade.
Although we did do considerable coal
ing from the GOLFERS on the blockading
line we found it impossible to keep a
sufficient supply on board all the ves-
sells by this method. 1t must be re-
membered that the vessels were con-
stantly under way .and had to keep
steam enough in their boilers to be
ready to move at good speed on inn
mediate notice.
This involved the expending Of Goa
faster than it could be put on board by
&C aling in the open. and we were, there.
fore, obliged to send a vessel each morn.

out every night-the time when all sup.
posed it was most likely to be needed.
Furthermore, while it would, OF
course, been best had it been possible
to have had every ship on her station
at all times, there never was a time from
June 10th to July 3rd when our force OF
the blockade was not far superior to the
Spanish force inside. So the absence o.

left us with sufficient force to make
successful the outcome of the engage.
