DEATH THEIR FATE
Short Shrift for Bearers of
Autonomy Proposals.
OFFERS KEPT FROM THE SOLDIERS
Insurgent Chiefs Folly Determined to
flotd tUe Aruij Tttgether at
Whatever Cost.
New York, Dec. 15. A Havana dis
patch to the Herald Bays:
The Cuban leaders in the field are
adopting every possible method to pre
vent even the thin edge of the wedge ot
autonomy from ' entering their ranks.
They not only absolutely refuse to dis
- cuss autonomy themselves, but they are
determined in their efforts not to allow
Spain's offers of self-government to ba
laid before the insurgent troops.
All emissaries' who dare to carry the
olive branch to the field are ' bung if
caught. Seventy per cent of the rebel
soldiers are kept In ignorance of the lib
eral terms offered by Spain.
There is reason for the reliance on the
part of the Cuban chief e. There are
rebels and there are subordinate rebel
officers who are tired of war and its ac
companying hardships, and who would
lay down their arms if liberal home rule
was guaranteed'.
There are not many of these it is true,
but some, and their desertion would
have a far-reaching moral effect. Gen
eral Gomez and his generals realize this,
and hence will tolerate no consideration
of autonomy. ' '
It is asserted that this attitude on the
part of Gomez and. other leaders ac
counnts in a measure for the mystery
surrounding the recent meetiug of the
Cuban assembly to elect a president and
other officials.
There is circumstantial evidence at
hand to prove that the news published
last September of Senor Capots election
as president was correct.' After acting
three months Senor Capot was replaced
by Senos Masso because the former was
a man of poace and a far-seeing lawyer,
and as such'might be inclined to listen
to proposals of autonomy.
SANGVILLT NOT A TRAITOR.
On tHe Contrary He Returns to the Ca
bin Army at Once.
New Yobk, Dec. 15. General Julio
Sanguilly, instead of being a traitor, as
recent reports from Havana would in
dicate, returns to the island at once in
obedience to the commands of his chief,
General Gomez. This statement is made
on the authority 'of a IphyBician, a Ca
ban, who Btands high among the mem
bers of the junta here.
Sanguilly is in Washington, where it
is said he will call on Secretary Sherman
and renounce his American citizenship
in order to absolve himself from the
pledge he gave when the secretary ee
cured his releaee from a Spanish prison,
that he would not again take up arms
against Spain. .
A Veteran Sport In Lock. -

Brown, a veteran sport, has fallen heir

ter, Fanny Hinckley Mills, whe died in
New Orleans a year ago. The estate has
been in litigatian since " the death of
Brown's Bister. 'Brown has received
word from New Orleans that he has won
the case on its merits.
I was troubled for a long
time with a sore wist; some
thing the doctors termed an
open vein. -Jt would break
and the blood would flow in
a stream from it, and -I could
find nothing that-would heal
it until I tried your Happy
Thought Salve. A small
quantity healed it up nicely.
In fact it has been well and
showed no signs of breaking
for over "three months, so I
feel it has ' done perfect work.

Mr. James Jones, of the drug firm of

- After meals you should have simply a
feeling of comfort and satisfaction. You
should not feel any special indications
that digestion is going en. If you do,
you have indigestion, which means not-
digestion. This may bo the beginning of
bo many dangerous diseases, that it is
best to take it in hand at once and treat
it with Shaker Digestive Cordial. For
you know that indication makes poison,
which causes nain and sickness. And
that Shaker Digestive Cordial helps di
gestion and cures indigestion. Shaker
Digestive Cordial does . this by providing
the digestive materials in which the
sick stomach is wanting.- It also tones
up and strengthens the digestive organs
and makes " them perfectly healthy.
This is the rationale ot its method of
cure, as tbe doctors wonld say. Sold by

Bow to Prevent Pneumonia.
At this time of the year a cold is very
easily contracted, and if left to run its
conrse without the aid ot some reliable
cough medicine is liable to result in that
dread disease, pneumonia. We know of
no better lemedy to cure a cough or cold
than Chamberlain's Cough ' Remedy.
We have used it quite extensively and it
has always given entire ea lie faction
Olegab, Ind. Ter. Chief.
This is the only remedy Ihrt is known
to be a certain preventive of pneumonia.
Among the many thousands who have
used it for colds and la grippe, we have
not yet learned of a single case having re
sulted in pneumonia. ' Persons who have
weak lungs or have reason to fear an at
tack of pneumona, should keep the
remedy at hand. . The 25 and 50 cent
