'GUBA'S NATAL Day FIXED.
United States to Make a Complete
Withdrawal From Island.
MAY 20, 1902, THE DAY FIXED.

Washington. March 27.-May 20,
1902, is the new date fixed for turning
over the Island of Cuba to its people
The change of date was made if not at
the suggestion, then with the full
approval of President Elect Palma and
his advisers, Seniors Tamaya and
Quesada, who were with him at the
war department, it having been de-
terinined that President Palma shall
be inaugurated on the same day that
American control of the island ceases.
All but the smallest details of the
change i'll Cuba have been planned
at a meeting at the war department.
Besides the final selection of MAJ 20 as
important conclusions were reached.
The first was that General Wood
should Immediately upon his return to
Cuba issue a call converting the first
Cuban congress in session on May 10
in order that the body might employ
the ten days following that date in
supplying any legislation necessary to
the assumption of full powers in the
island. The other conclusion was that
there should be no halfway evacuation
of the island; the present disposition is
to move the entire United States con-
tingent, civil and military, away from
the island, not even leaving a COR
poral's guard of the United States
soldiers in any of the camps. If this
program is not executed it will be for
the sole reason that the Cubans them
selves, through their authorized Off
Gals, request that the departure of
the United States troops be delayed for
a time.

Weak and Siclkly Children

Who, perhaps, have inherited weak
digestion, continually subject to stomach
troubles, loss OF flesh and general weakness,
can be made healthy and strong by the use
of Nogeier's Curative Compound. Every
doctor who is at all Up to date will say that
Vogelers Curative Compound will make the
blood pure and rich, bring colour to the
cheeks, and put on flesh where health de-
mands it. Children who have been weak
and sickly since birth should be treated with
small doses of Vogeler's Curative Compound,
from two to five drops, twice daily, most
satisfactory results will follow. 1t is the best
of all medicines, because it is made from the
formula of great living physician.
