jillo, with. the Farnesco squadron, while
reconnoitering near Siebe, this province,

fire of the enemy, tbe squadron charged
at a gallop and dispersed the insurgents,
with a loss of twenty-one killed and
many wounded. Tbe main body of the
troops then started in pursuit of the
fugitives, and inflicted further loss upon
them. Eight troopers were wounded
with machetes.
The repeated denials of General Fitz
hugh Lee, United States consul-general,
that be has made unfavorable reports to
President Cleveland, as announced in
the United States, have produced a fa
vorable effect here, and have counter
acted tbe bad feeling occasioned by tbe
publication of the erroneous reports.

GOLD BUT NO FOOD.
Experience of an Amateur Pirate on the
Chinese Coast
It has surely fallen to the lot of few
men to come near starving to death in
a land of plenty, with over $900 in g-old
in their pocket nay, by reason of that
very fact. I bad shipped at Rangoon
on board a steamer bound for Shanghai,
says a writer. When I signed she was
flying Jardine's flag at the main, but I
believed she carried the ensign of every
nation and half the house flags of the
world in her signal locker. An opium
smuggler I was prepared to find her;
that her chief business on the waters
was piracy of the vilest sort and unre
deemed by a glint of romance came
upon me certainly as a revelation.
We attacked no ships, as far. as I
know, but, handled with marvelous
skill and knowledge of the intricate
coast navigation, she would run in after
nightfall among the rocks and banks
where one would expect a sampan to
take the bottom, while shrieks, flames,
the report of firearms and clash of steel
would testify to the descent of my de
lectable shipmates upon. one or another
of the numerous fishing villages which
fringe the shores of the China sea.
After four months duress I struck a
blow for liberty. My little hoard of
morphia jealously guarded toward
this eventuality deepened the narco
tism in which the whole crew lay
steeped after a ghastly debauch as we
rode at anchor, and, forsaking all my
goods and chattels and seizing in lieu
such moneys as I could find, I dropped
into the dingey and pulled off, shoeless,
hatless, arrayed only in a shjrt, trousers
aul belt containing the above named
sum (close on 200), hoping to reach a
German gunboat which had been sight
ed in the offing earlier in the clay.
But . the night was thick and in less
than an hour I found myself close in
shore. The question of what to do was,
speedily settled by the boat' capsizing
among the breakers, leaving me no al
ternative but to land. Day was break
ing and I lay till next morning in a tomb
cut above the road in the hillside, and for
the next three weeks I nearly perished
for lack of nourishment, not daring to
exhibit a gold piece, for I had no weap
on and would certainly have been
robbed and murdered.
I would gladly have thrown away all
but one piece, but there was no single
small coin in the sum total, and the re
sult would have been the same. Though
a good walker, at that age (I had made
a record of 20 miles not long before and
oould cover 300 a week without a. blis
ter) I accomplished no more than 200
miles in 22 days traveling only by
night and hiding in tombs or ditches
all day, often rushing back to my last
deserted lair in terror of the advancing
sun when no suitable place of conceal
ment hove in sight.
With paddy and plantains snatched
precariously here and there I managed
to exist during those awful weeks.
Chan-Chan is not regarded as a terres
trial paradise by those Europeans
whom fate malign has compelled to
sojourn there, but Walhalla was never
hailed with greater ecstacy by the
world-worn pilgrim than was that ce
lestial sink by myself. Toward the
20tb day the smell of meat cooking ab
solutely overcame me one morning, and,
at the peril of my life, I emerged into
the light of day, and laid felonious
hands and teeth on what I believed
was a part of a baked cat, in the tempo
rary absence of the legitimate landlord
thereof. London Standard.

BAD BSEATH! ' " -
Nothing is so unpleasant, nothing so common, as
bad breath ; and in nearly every case it comes from
the stomach, and can be so easily corrected if you will
take Simmons Livb; Regulator. Do not neglect so
sure a remedy for tins repulsive disorder. It will also
improve your appetite, complexion and general health.
FIXES! ' f . . '
How many suffer torture day after day. making life
a burden and robbing existence of all pleasure, owing
to the secret suffering from Piles. Yet relief is ready
to the hand of almost any one who will use systemati
cally the remedy that has permanently cured thou
sands. Simmons Lives Regulator is no drastic,
violent purge, but a gentle assistant to nature.
CONSTIPATION
SHOULD not be regarded as
a trifling ailment in fact, nature
demands the utmost regularity of ' "
the bowels, and any deviation
, from this demand paves the way
often to serious danger. It is - -,
quite as necessary to remove
impure accumulations from the
bowels as it is to eat or sleep, and
no health can be expected where
a costive habit of body prevails.-
SICK HEADACHE I
This distressing affliction occurs most frequently.
The disturbance of the stomach, arising from the
imperfectly digested contents, causes a severe pain in
the head, accompanied vi'iih disagreeable nausea, and
this constitutes what is popularly known as Sick
Headache, for the relief of which take Simmons
Liver Regulator or Medicine.
