The Mouut Lebanon Shakers recently
performed a great deed of chailty, al-
u"uii it as not designed as a charity
being nothing more nor less than an ad
vertising scheme. It however resulted
in great jtoort just the same. They gave
away 1000 bottles of their Digestive Cor
dial to those suffering from stomach de
rangements.
It was po effective in enring those who
used the remedy that they were lond in
thi ir pr tieea of it and in consequence a
large demand for the Cordial was at
once created. . '

CHASING A FIL1IUSTEE.
Probable Cause of rirlDK Off the Flori
da Coast.
St. AuausTiNEr Flai, Aag. 2.1. Last
night heavy firing at .sea ; by rapid-fire
gnns and the rays of the searchlight
brought out the people of this city. The
whole affair was carefully noted by the
officers of the First artillery from their
quarters in St. Francis barracks, who
are positive that the vessel fired not less
than 40 shots, first rapidly and then at
intervals, ceasing as if the object of the
chase was caught. Then the rapid fir
ing would be resumed.
The ship, probably a war vessel, could
not come nearer than about five miles
off shore, and was evidently chasing a
light-draught boat, as the flashes came
from the starboard gun. ' .
The coast is idented by a sand strip
reaching out to about one mile off this
bar, and it forms the cone of Anastasia
lighthouse, straight down the coast for
14 miles to Matanzas inlet. The St.
Augustine bar bad but seven feet of
water on it at the stage of the tide when
the tiring commenced, which would
have prevented the coming over of the
Three friends or Dauntless, were those
the vessels chased. There was only four
feet of water on Matanzas inlet, unless a
vessel could make this harbor she would
either have to put to eea or surrender.
For this reason indications point to the
fleeing boat taking an easterly course.
When the firing commenced a squall
was on and the night was very dark.

Evangellna Cisneros' Trial.
New Yore, Aug. 21. Captain-Gener
al Weyler, in a cable dispatch from Ha
vana to the World, denies the report
that Evangelina Cisneros, a Cuban girl
of 19, a sensational beauty, of gentle
breeding and pure life, bad been tried or
sentenced to imprisonment for two years
in the Spanish penal colony at Ceuta.
The girl is the niece of the president of
the Cuban republic. General Weyler's
dispatch to the World reads as follows :
"For judicial reasons there is on trial
in the preliminary stages a person named
Evangelina Cisneros, who, deceitfully
luring to her house the military com
mander of the Isle of Pines, had accom
plices posted secretly, who tied him and
attempted to assassinate him. The case
is in the preliminary stages and has not
as yet been tried by a competent tribu
nal, and consequently no sentence has
been passed or approved by me. I
answer the World with the frankness
and truth that characterizes all my acts
