With the failure of the attempt to

Now and again$a snatch of a drunken
song was beloved out, and 1t was plain
that my uncle's strong ale was flowing
freely.
OF him I had seen never a sign since
he came up to the spot where the duel
was fought, and though, nominally,
there was no dispute between us, yet
I felt ure that he saw where matters
stood, and whyI was haunting Nant-
y-Bryn. Half an hour passed and then
I heard a couple OF fellows talking
thickly together on the lower stairs,
and the sound of unsteady feet pound-
ing up.
In: a moment two men came In sight.
Both wore bloody bandages about their
heads, and were. I believe, the pikemen
sage. and whose crowns I had slashed
there. Upon reaching the gallery they
came tosa pause and looked earnestly
to the darkness which hid me. One
shook a fist in my direction. then
tapped his comrade on the breast in
drunken gravity and held earnest con-

Has He Found 1t?

Polk. Ark, Nov. "a remedy that
will absolutely cure Rheumatism has
been discovered by Mr.. George Hiland
of this place. Mr.. Hiland is satisfied
that the remedy he has used is n ure
cure, for it cured him of a very serious
case of Acute rheumatism when he
was so bad that he could not move.
This is what he says:
Il was troubled with what is called
Acute rheumatism in 1900. I was in
such shape that l could not move with
out help. l was treated by a physi-
clan, who helped me some, but l was
still in great pain when my wife saw
Dodd's Kidney Pills advertised as c
cure for rheumatism. She insisted on
my trying them, and | felt better after
taking the first box. l continued. and
nov [. am well and able to work all
the time. l have found DOdd's Kidney
Pills to be Just what they are claimed
to be. a perfect cure for rheumatism"
Mr.. Hiland's very positive statement
seems to settle all doubt as to wheth-
az or not Rheumatism can be cured.

Farmers Course in Live Stock Juda

Farmers Course in Live Stock Judging.
January 4 to IL, 1904. Offered by
animal ~husbandry department of the
Iowa State college. In order to meet
the urgent demand for more thorough
knowledge regarding the most desirable
types and methods of breeding and
feeding live stock the animal hus-
bandry department of the Iowa State
college offers a two weeks course in the
judging, feeding, breeding and care and
management of live stock for the bene-
fit OF all armer or men interested Ii:
the production of live stock. This
course is not intended for the young
man who has the time and opportunity
for taking a more thorough course such
as can be had in the regular courses Of
the state agricultural colleges. /, is
intended specially Cor that large mass
of men who, on account of business OF.
orations and other reasons, cannot
avail themselves of the opportunities
of taking a full course in agriculture.
This is the fourth year that this
course has been offered by the Iowa
State college. 1t has met with such
popular favor in past years that an
other c~omlnodious stock judging pa
vilion has been erected for the accom-
mediation of those who attend so that
the college is now prepared to handle
1000 students.
H IL utilllol W llS Sul tOIpS u
instructors the services of some of the
most prominent live stock experts on
the continent have been secured. Each
instructor Will be n specialist in his
particular line, q mar who knows his
work thoroughly.
A slaughter test will be included.
Animals representing each of the vari-
Gus market classes of cattle will be
inspected on foot, then killed, cut up
and discussed in detail by John Cos
ling, Kansas City, Mo-, q man of wide
experience and q master of his work.
A new and important feature OF this
years work will be an advanced course
for the benefit of those who have at
tended in previous years. This will in
Clude a critical study of the charac-
teristics of the various breeds of do
mestic animals, points to be observed
in the building up of pure bred herds,
with lectures on the principles of ami
NAL breeding, the feeding and care and
management of all classes of animals.
Three days each will be devoted TO
the study of horses, cattle. sheep and
swine. In addition to the large collec-
ton of animals owned by the college
which includes the international prize
winners, arrangements are being made
to have a large amount of high class
stock sent in from the best known
herds and fiocks in the west.
Applications, should be forwarded at
once as the number admitted will of
necessity have to be limited. An en-
trance fee of 50 viii be charged to COW
er the expenses of securing outside lee
turers and specimens of stock not
owned by the college.
A school in corn Judging will be con-
Quoted at the same time by the agron-
omy department.
Arrangements have been made SO
that every man who desires may take
both lines of work.

THE Proposed CUBAN LOAN.

President Palma has taken steps to
float the $4,000. 600 loan authorized by
the Cuban Congress five months or
more ago. He recommends that the
Senate and the House each appoint
commissioner to act with a commits
sioner that he will appoint. and that
the commission thus constituted take
steps for placing the bonds in this
country.
At what price can the bonds be sold?
If there were entire confidence in the
stability of the Cuban government
there would be no difficulty in placing
them at par. but il is doubtful If
very satisfactory bid can be obtained
for them under existing conditions
There are two things in the way of
finding a satisfactory market for them
at this time. one is that the security
market has been undergoing hquida-
ton for several months. The inclina-
ton is to sell rather than buy securi-
ties The other is that the Cuban gov
eminent has not been established long
enough to inspire confidence in its sta
bility.
OF course there is no probability of
an attempt at a revolution as long as
there is a chance for floating the loan
The element that is making threats is
composed of ex-soldiers of the Army
of Liberation. 1t is probable, how
ever that the purpose of their talk is
~a.vsr1fT pr1f
necessity for getting money with which
to pay their claims without unneces-
sary delay. There is no reason for
thinking they mean to make trouble
for the government. As far as can be
seen they would not advance their in
terests in the least by taking a course
of that kind. Besides, il is probable
that the United States would use their
influence to preserve order if the occa-
sion for doing so should arise.
If the Cuban commissioners should
meet with a cool reception from finan-
ciers in New York would there be
movement to get the United States to
indorse the Cuban bonds? 1t is not inn
probable that something of that kind
is contemplated If Endorsed by the
United States the bonds would be
sought so eagerly that a big premium
would be offered for them.
1t is possible that they may be float
ed at par. or a little less, even with
out such Endorsement. Much depends
upon the financiers selected to handle
them. OF Cuba.s ability to pay the in
terest on the proposed amount of in
debtedness there does not appear to be
any doubt. In the course of a few
weeks it win be known quite definitely
in what estimation Cuba's credit is
held.

sAYANNAH,s COMMERCE.


No one who read the report of the
exports and imports at this port for
the year ending June 80, which ap-
peared in the Morning News yester-
day, can doubt that Savannah is grow
ing with considerable rapidity in COM
mercial Importance. The last year was
the greatest in her history from a COM
mercial point of view. Her exports
were far ahead of those of any previous
year, and her imports for the first
time in her history passed the $1,000
900 mark. To be exact, the value of
her imports was $1,O37 446.
But it is her exports that tell the
story. In value they amounted to $54.-
139,525, or $12,614,S30 more than those
of the previous year. A gain Of
$12,0O0.000 and over in a year is some
thing for port of the size of Savan-
nah to be proud of. 1t indicates that
the territory that contributes to sa-
vannah's commercial greatness is be-
ing gradually extended.
Twenty years ago Savannah's exports
were less than $4,000, 900 a year. 1t
will be seen that the value of them
is almost three times that amount
now. And there is every reason to ex-
pect that there will be a steady in
crease in the city's commerce.
Several years ago, when we were
urging deeper water in the harbor,
we predicted that as the harbor was
-deepened the commerce of the port
would increase. This prediction has
come true, and it is safe to say that
the increase will be still more marked
when the project for deepening the
harbor to twenty-eight feet is COM
pleted.
The Chamber OF Commerce acted
wisely in urging the government to
put the big dredge boat Cumberland at
work in the lrarbor at the earliest pos
sible moment. The effort to get that
dredge boat, in order to be successful,
will have to be persistent and vigor-
Gus, as there are several applications
for it. The busy season will soon be-
gin, and the harbor ought to be pre-
pared for it. There are several places
in the harbor which need immediate
attention. With the Cumberland at
work the harbor would be in first-class
condition by the opening of the cotton
| year.
The completion of the plan for Sc
| curing twenty-eight feet of water in
the harbor ought not to be delayed an
hour longer than is absolutely neces-
sary. The commerce of the port needs
that depth of water in the harbor The
largest ships visiting the port should
suffer no delay in coming insor going
out.
