GETTING OUT OF CUBA
All Who Cau Raise Sufficient
Means Are Escaping.
CRUELTIES OF SPANISH SOLDIERS
Cltlea Full of Ueggars Whose Homes
Ban Been Burned A Dark Pic
tare of Outrage and Crime.
Jacksonville, Fla., August 3. Late
advices from Havana give a very dark
picture of the state of affairs in Cuba.
The emigration from the island con
tinues at various ports.. All who can
raiee sufficient means to coyer their pas
sage are leaving. From Puerto Principe
province alone it is estimated that more
than 300 families have gone abroad.
Through the port of Havana more than
28.000 persona, mostly Cubans, have left
the island since General Weyler reached
Cuba, according to the official reports,
while by direct steamers for Europe
more than 6,000 Spanish artisans and
farm hands have embarked for the
Canary islands and Balearic islands or
ports of the peninsula.
General Weyler's campaign against
the pacificoa is driving the country peo
ple terror stricken from their homes.
While the insurgents blow up trains
with dynamite and burn sugar estates,
the Spanish gnerrilas continue to burn
the modest country huts and destroy the
present plantings. The families left
without ehelter are compelled to flock
into the cities, the men being forced
into the government service and the
women compelled to wash and cook for
the officers and troope, beg or do worse
to keep hunger from the door. The pic
ture is indeed a sad one. -
According to the official reports, more
than 3,000 suspicious peasant huts were
burned during the last week. . In in
stances where only women were found
at home, liberties are without doubt
often taken, giving' rise afterward to
shocking stories of outrage and crime
committed by Spanish guerrilas, but
often unjustly attributed to officers and
troope of the line.
And while General Weyler continues
driving the peasants of the country from
their fields of honest labor, the refugees
are dying of hunger in the cities and
towns. From Matanzas comes the sad
story of Justo Serpa, his wife and four
little girls, aged G, 8, 10 and 12. Driven
from theii modest mountain retreat by
a flying government guerrilla force,
their hut was burned and they were
compelled to flee to Union delos Reyes,
about 12 leagues on foot.
" At Sancti Spiritus a Cuban boy of 10
years is to be tried for killing a Spanish
officer who insulted his sister. The of
ficer was endeavoring to force an en
trance to. the girl's room at midnight,
local papers say, when a shot from an
adjoining window pierced his heart. As
only the girl'B mother and little brother
were in the building the latter is ac
cused of assassinating the officer.
GIVEN HIS WALKING PAPERS.
Cripple Creek City Marshal Ordered
Out of Town.
4 - "
' Chippie Creek, Colo., Aug. 3. Jim
Marshall, marshal of the city, has re
ceived . has walking papers from an in
dignation meeting of citizens, who al
lege that he has been running the town
for revenue only, and that his operations
have netted him at the rate of $20,000 a
year by imposts on disreputable and on
respectable people whom he arrested on
frivolous charges. Marshall declines to
go, and as he has a reputation of being
quick with bis revolver it may require
some persuasion to induce him to leave.
His notoriety is shared by Bob Mullen,
formerly deputy sheriff, who has been
acting as police judge and who is said to
make a nice thing out of the situation.
The pair has been notified by tbe bar
association and the municipal I league
that, the people -are tired of them and
that they had better leave forthwith or
take the penalty. Marshall was at one
time--keeper of a dive at Kansas City,
where- the -f worst mea of the country
found shelter, trom the officers of the
law. He was also indicted by the feder
al grand jury in Denver for train rob
bery and for a long 'time was out on

greater discomfort and misery than the
constant recurring Headache. Men
suffer less with Headache. "My wife's

Dr. PIERCE'S
Golden Medical
DlSCpVEgY
Cures Ninety-eight per cent, of all
cases of Consumption, in all Its
Earlier Stages. -
Although by many believed to be incura
ble, there is the evidence of hundreds of
living witnesses to the fact that, in all its
earlier stage3, consumption is a curable
disease. Not every case, but a large per
centage of cases, and we belie ve, fully 98
percent, are cured by Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed so far as to induce repeated
bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering
cough with copious expectoration (includ
ing tubercular matter), great loss of flesh
and extreme emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to U3 as cured by "Golden Med
ical Discovery " were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease ? You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever - in mis
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial of " Golden Medical Discovery,"
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions" and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene
fit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for
a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos
phites bad also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of a large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies, have been
skillfully reproduced in a book of 160
pages which will be mailed to you, on re
ceipt of address and six cents in stamps.

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. Hall's Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a consti
tutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destrovine the foun
dation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the con
stitution and assisting nature in doing
its 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. Address:
