The readers Of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh cure is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
constitutional disease, requires con-
stltutlonal treatment. Halls Catarrh
cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in do
ing it's work. The proprietors have SO
much faith in its curative powers that
they offer one Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list
of testimonials.

A Memorial to SouthernWomen

Miss Belle Kinney, of Nash
vile, Tenn, has completed, with
apparent success, a design for a
monument fitting to be chosen
as a memorial to the Southern
women. who, equally with the
men Of the Confederacy, suffered
for the Lost Cause The
first design for a monument,
submitted by an Italian sculptor.
depicted the Southern woman as
an amazon carrying a sword in
one hand and the banner of the
Confederacy in the other. This
was rejected as contrary to all
truth concerning the Southern
women and repugnant to the SEN
timent of the Southland. The
Southern woman was the exact
reverse of an amazon in every
attribute, physical or mental,
save that of indomitable courage
to bear the sufferings inflicted
upon her through the conditions
of war. Miss Kinney's concep-
ton of her character appears
infinitely more in keeping with
the enduring tenderness and 10y
atty of her real nature.

Lisbon Dispatch, Aug26
Special dispatches received
here from Melilla, Morocco, say
the fighting is general on the
Moroccan coast. The new Span

BILE havoc among the Moors, who
have lost j, 900 men in the last
three days. The Spanish casu-
alties amount to $50.
A Spanish column has Destroy

A Moorish deserter who has
come into the Spanish lines de-
clares that Spanish prisoners af-
ter being horribly tortured and
mutilated are decapitated and
their dead bodies flung into a
hole on Mount Guruga.
This hole is a mass Of decom-
posing corpses. Estimates place
the number of Spanish prisoners
at 1000. The water being dol

insufficient. The officers buy
mineral waters, but this the men
cannot afford to do, and driven
