TROOPS TO STAY IN CUBA.
Government Will Retain Them 4
Guard Naval Station.

Washington. d. c.. March Cit Is
again stated by theauthorities here that
there is no present intention of renlov-
ing from Cubt the American troops
now stationed there. This statement is
made in view of the criticisms passed in
the Cuban senate yesterday in con-
nection with the discussion of the reci-
procity treaty upon the continued pres
ence of United States troops in the is
land. TheCuban government thorough
ly understands that the United States
always has intended to keep few SOL
Giers or marines in Cuba indefinitely.
II also understands that this is not
for the purpose of overawing or CO.
ercing the Cubans, but for the sole pur-
pose of taking care of the naval and
coaling stations which have been ac-
quired at guantanamo and Bahi Honda
tic which points the American soldiers
will be removed. The entire strength
CT this force is only about 500 men.

To use an eighteenth century phrase,
this is an "o'er true tale" Having
happened in a small Virginia town In
the winter of 1902. it is a story very

edge of the rare curativ. properties of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Last

dreadful cold and at one time I feared
she would have pneumonia, but one OF
my neighbors told me how this remedy
had cured her little boy, and began
giving it to my baby at once and it soon
cured her. heartily thank the manu-

Stems suddenly removed the apparatus
and Gaze was in total darkness.
Stems claim rests on the theory that
man does not see with his eye but
with his brain, the eye only serving to
receive the image which the optic
nerve transmits to the seat of percep-
ton. If, then. the image be transmit
ted to the brain without eyes a blind
person can see as we'll as anybody else.
The professors apparatus is on the
