Admiral Dewey; Las raised tbe
Spanish cruisers, Isla de Cuba and
Isla de Luzon, which were sunk dur
ing the battle of Manila. Both have
been floated and are. -locked at Ca
ite. The Admiral's intention is to
have them fully repaired and fitted
out to re-enforce his fleet.
. The two vessels in question, while
not of the latest nJodel, were among
the most effective protected cruisers
of Spain's Pacific squadron. Each
naa displacement or i,uau tons, a
speed of sixteen knots, and a crew of
160 men. Each carried four-inch
Hontoria guns, four six-pounder and
two three pounder rapid-firers, two
machine guns, and three torpedo
tubes. They were lighter than the
Marble head and Montgomery of our
own fleet, but carried as heavy arms
xnent. Light-draught vessels will be
needed in the Philippines, and in
raising the two Spanish cruisers Ad
miral Dewey has made a valuable
addition to his fleet at trifling ex
pense.
li it is cieeuiea important to save
the third-rate cruisers sunk in Manila
bay, how much more important is it
to save the first class Spanish cruisers
sunk in the vicinity of Santiago. One
of these, the Maria Teresa, was
. raised and floated and is now at the
mercy of the storms at Cat island
The government is making every at
tempt to save the vessel, and, even
though this be accomplished at great
expense, the people will approve the
work. The same course should be
followed with the Cristobal Colon,
the v Vizcaya, and the Almirante
Oquendo, which went down with the
Teresa in the battle of Santiago.
These vessels were the pride of the
Spanish navy. They came to Amer
ican waters under the command of
one of the best naval officers in Eu
rope. They were blockaded in San
tiago harbor by our fleet, forced out
of the harbor by the victory of our
wmy, and in one of the greatest
naval engagements of history vere
sunk by the guns of the American
warships.
The Cristobal Colon, the best ves
sel hi the Spanish navy, was not in
jured in battle. She was run on the
beach, surrendered, and was taken
possession of almost immediately by
the Americans. All the injury to
her was done by water and it was be
lieved at the time by the most ex
perienced officers on the ground that
she could be raised without great dif
ficulty and added to the American
"navy at an expenditure of one-fourth
of what the vessel originally cost.
Even -if the Vizcaya and the
Oquendo cannot be raised with profit
the experiment should be tried
wtth the Cristobal Colon. This ves
sel, the pride of the Spanish navy,
was constructed at a cost of $3,500,
000. If she can be floated, and re
paired so as to become a cruiser in
the American navy, she will remain
for years a memorial of American
valor on the sea. "Wherever she
might go, in home waters or abroad,
the first thought would be of the
victory of the American fleet at
Santiago, and the Cristobal Colon
would be a constant reminder to the
young or ine nign place won by our.
navy through superior courage, dis
cipline, and skill.
A Sure Sign of Croup.
Hoarseness io ft child that is subject
to croup is a sure indication of the ap
proach of the disease. If Chamberlain's
Coagh Remedy is given as soon as the
child becomes hoarse,, or even after the
croupy cough has appeared, it will pre
vent the attack. Many mothers who
have croupy children always keep this
remedy at hand and find that it saves
them much trouble and worry. It can
always be depended upon and is pleasant
to take. For Bale by Blakeley & Hough

I am very pleased to state that since
I took the agency of Chamberlain's
medicines the sale has. been very large,
more especially of the Cough Remedy.
In two years I have sold more of this
particuliar remedy than of all other
makes for the previous fiye years. As
to its efficacy, I have been informed by
scores of persons of the good results they
have received from it, and know its
value from the use of it in my own house
