Now, Notwithstanding much outdoor
life, they are little if any stronger
than they were. The tan on their
faces is darker and makes them look
healthier. but this is only a mask. They
are still nervous, easily tired, upset by
trihes, and they do not eat nor sleep
well. What they need is what tones
the nerves, perfects digestion, creates
appetite. and makes sleep refreshing,
and that is Hoods Sarsaparilla. Pu.

Engagement off Santiago that resulted
ne annihilation of Cervera's fleet, Il
flower of the Spanish navy" July 3, 1895
From Santiago's harbor mouth,
One year ago to-day,
The proud Cervera's Spanish fleet
Crept softly thro' the bay.
Stern sailors stood behind the gurs.
Their faces white and set;
With cleaning eyes they muttered low:
"WeIl beat those Yankees YETI
Around the Merrimac's sunken bulk
Cervera safely passed,
And as to westward quickly sped
An anxious look he cast
To where the Brookiyn's stately form
Was outlined 'gainst the sky;
''The day is mine if l elude
The ever watchful Schley!''
He said; but scarce the words were dIopp'd,
When straight across his bow
The Brooklyn hurled an eight-inch shell.
Which taught the daring foe
That Yankee failOrs never sleep
When dangers lurking near;
But ever ready for attack,
They stand without fear.
The fight was en-! The Brooklyn chased,
While up came "Fighting Bob
In the Iowa, to join the race,
Quite pleased to have job
So to his taste. On! on! he flew
To head off Eulate,
And brought him to in double quick,
The loser in the fray
Next came the queen'y Oregon,
The Texas in her wake;
And on the Spanish warships doomed,
Sad havoc did they make.
The Indiana fell in line,
The saucy Gloucester, too;
And all com mbined, they well performed
The work they had to do
VI.
In sixty minutes from the time
The Spaniards left the bay
Their ships were ruined, backened wrecks,
And beached, they helpless lay.
But proud Cervera still held out
And vainly strove to free
The Colon from the iron grasp
OF the lions of the sea.
A useless task Ere day advs ced
But thirty minutes more
The last of Span's majestic fleet
Lay stranded on the shore.
"Tho' defeat is ours" Cervera spoke,
twill not be said, my crew,
Th at we were towards in the strife,
But patriots brave and true!"
All honor TO our navy boys,
Who fought in country's name
And crushed the SPaniard's cruel pow'r;
Their deed shall live in fame
tribute to our Sailor Schley.
Whose work has won ren0wr;
His noble conduct Ger shall be
Our countrys brightest crown!

Pat and the Admiral.

Admiral Evans, in his interesting
autobiography, "a Sailors Log" relates
an amusing anecdote of Captain
Trenchard. who, when he commanded
the Rhode Island, had a very accom-
plished steward, a colored man who had
become so expert in catching flies off
the captains bald head that the captain
was never annoyed by them. Admiral
Lardner." says Admiral Evans, had
for his steward a large, heavy-handed
Irishman, who watched the colored man
with great envy while his master, undis-
turbed, enjoyed his meals. Pats master
thrashed at the flies and swore roundly
as they lighted On his close-cropped hair.
The colored man went OF catching flies
with a quick dexterous movement of his
right hand until Pat could stand it no
longer. Drawing back he made a vicious
swing at a fly. but, instead of catchins
it, he caught the admiral an awful blow
on the back of the head. The admiral
thinking there was a mutiny, grabbed
the carving knife and made after Pat
rick, who retreated to the spar deck,
and there was a hurdle race fore INC aft
the officer of the deck and the orderly
trying to catch the admiral, who was
doing his best to put the carving knife
in the back of Pat, who finally escaped,
but never bothered any more about
flies on the admira,s head.

TROU6lf IN TIE SENATE.

Montana is not the only state in the
Union likely this winter to furnish some
entertainment in the senate of the
United States. Senator Patterson OF
Colorado, who on being elected last WIN
ter by a fusion legislature. Topped from
the absurdities of populism to the i'm
becilities of democracy without n
reason he cares to explain, has by hat
act raised some enemies who are hot
on his trail. 1t may be remembered lat
two months ago Mr.. Patterson was
blackballed on applying for membership
Ia the American Bar association. Ugly
charges were made against him relating
to some jury scandals, and the commit
tee of seven lawyers appointed to inves-
tigate the facts, declined by a vote Of
5 to l to recommend his admission to
membership. The question which now
arises and will he pressed at Washing
ton is: Can the United States senate
aford to admit to its councils a man
who was denied fellowship in a society
OF lawyers? Patterson's facility in
changing his political coat is a private
matter that may not disturb the kind of
conscience which naturally results from
thirty years of legal practice n the
management of a democratic paper, but
the blackballing of the National Bar as
ISOLATION may prove to be a horse of an
other color.
The other senator likely to have
trouble is Wellington of Maryland, whose
treacherous n cowardly attack on the
nations honored dead a month ago
aroused the Indignation of every loyal
American. Wellington abandoned his
principles and betrayed his party soon
after his election to the senate. because
Of some misunderstanding about a petty
appointment. He undertook to beat the
Judas record because the administration
declined to impair the public service by
the appointment of some unfit under
strapper whom he thus desired to COM
pensate for private political services.
For years Wellington has Pettigrewed
on every national issue. Ignored by re-
pu5licans and despised by democrats,
ridiculed by the press and distrusted by
the people, he thought to revenge him
self on the party he had betrayed by
maligning its chief at the very momen
the latter had fallen at the hands of an
assassin.
Whether such a man is fit to be a
United States senator and whether he
may not be expelled for cause are ques-
!ions which must excite the interest of
every citizen who admires consistency
and demands honor and patriotism in
high places.

Discovered He Was Easv.

Il didn't think I was so easy" de-
clared the hackman. "When 1 saw thu
old man, with jay written all over him,
standing in front Of the depot staring UP
II down the street, I declared thai he
was my meat.
Better let me drive you there, un-
cle,' said 1.
How much will you charger he de-
manded. cautiously.
Where do you want to go?' I asked.
He named a umbe not more thar
$50 feet from where he stood. and I an
swered promptly that seeing it was he
l would drive him there for so cents.
".All right he answered, and jumped
in.
Il expected an explosion, and was fully
prepared for trouble, when one minute
later l informed him that W. were there.
But, much to my Amusement, the Old
man took it as a huge joke, and said he
would have to tell Maria all abou it as
soon as he got home.
Let's so and a a drink on it, said
he. with the best of good nature.
Il rather took a liking to the old seed.
and insisted that I should pay for the
drinks myself, which, after a good deal of
argument, he allowed me to do.
1T wasn't till after my old friend was
out of sight that it dawned upon me that
he had neglected to a me my fare.
Oh. I'm easy, all right enough!"-Detroit

The sugar trust is a concern which
ought to be regulated or smashed. Yet
it has deied the law during democratic
and republican administrations and
laughs at Its enemies. It is numbered
among the trusts which do no good and
much harm, and congress nay yet de-
eide to enact legislation that will teach
it a lesson. 1t Is the enemy Of the
American farmer n sugar maker, and
uses a foreign product to ruin a home
industry. 1t is now selling sugar in the
west at a figure thought low enough to
ruin local producers. Should that plan
succeed. the people will pay the costs
later when the rise comes.

PRISONERS HAD A SQUARE.
sheriff Savage of Yellowstone County
Fixed Them Up.


Sheriff W. E. Savage Of Yellowstone
county passed through Butte today en-
route from Miles City to Deer Lodge
with Fred Morrow n Found Leroy
Jacobs. whose liberty has been curtailed
by reason of their deeds of unlawfulness.
Marvin is the man who robbed the
Northern Pacific Express company's Of
flee of $1,000 at a town in Yellowstone
county and received a sentence of five
years in the penitentiary for it, while
Jacobs got SIX months for breaking out
of Jail after having broken into it. He
will be out of prison just in time to hear
the chirps of the first jay birds of the
spring.
Sheriff Savage is not such a wild man
as his name might indicate. Instead of
placing the prisoners in Jail here be-
tween trains and letting them eat the reg
ular prison fare, he took them to dinner
at a swell restaurant and ave them
the right of way over the time card or
bill or fare. They ordered everything
their fancy dictated, which was pretty
much everything in the house. and came
very near getting away with it after it
was placed before them.

cratic organs that are now like Niobe.
all tears. would be evangels of peace
and joy and satisfaction. They would
exude ecstasy from every line. The
country would be transformed into n
land where every prospect pleases ana
all seasons are summer The democratic
organs would ridicule every man h
might complain Of his lot and invite
him to go to work. They would point
to the country's commerce and manufac-
lures and its wonderful prospects and
rejoice exceedingly. They would de-
nounce the yellow press with words 265
degrees Fahrenheit. They would I'LL
their columns with hallelujahs and no
sannas instead Of lucubrations and
maledictions. They would insist that
the trusts. instead of being inventions
of Satan, are public benefactors though
not a political issue. They would proudly
assert that no man looking for work
need look in vain.
Such would be the democratic tune
were the administration democratic.
Every nan knows that. Therefore. no
mar should seriously consider the woeful
bowls of the democratic press and their
efforts to divide the republican party by
the false and malevolent devices of yell
low journalism, for 1t hesitates at no lie

disconnected. 1t seeks to create a feeling
of hostility toward the business agencies
that have made the country prosperous
as well as towards the government Off
cials deliberately chosen by the people
themselves. nine-tenths Of whom are
lusty patriots who toll and laugh and
enjoy both toll and laughter as they
contemplate the nations greatness under
republican rule. and the envious and
jealous plotting of a repudiated. divided,
disgraced and demoralized democracy.
