MEXICO TO THE
RESCUE OF SPAIN
The Colonization Project EyoM oy the
Diaz Government.
A HOME FOR
SPANISH TROOPS
Transportation Offered Them to Mexico
If They Will Emigrate There, and
Additional Small Houses,Tools,etc,
With Which to Work.
New Yoke, Dec. 13. A dispatch to
the Press from Washington says:
The Mexican government has sub
mitted a colonization project to the
Spanish authorities in Havana, by
which it proposes not only to aid the
Spanish government, but to give great
assistance as well to the Spanish soldiers
who have served in Cuban welfare and
are eoon to evacuate Cuba.
The proposition of the Mexican gov
ernment is to organize bands among the
Spanish soldiers and provide them with
free passage to Mexici, where necessary
tools, seeds and implements for agricul
tural work will be furnished, and in ad
dition oxen and small bouses will be
given to the immigrants and a certain
tract of the public lands in Mexico will
be provided lor colonization pnr poses.
The government, in turn, is to take
a lien upon the products, and exact a
return of 20 per cent each year until the
supplies are paid for by the colonists,
after which the land will become their
own.
For those who do not care to accept
this proposition, arrangements have.)
been made by the government of Mexico
to supply a large number of Spanish
soldiers with labor on the public works
and in the mines, at the rate of $18 per
month.
The Spanish authorities in general are
in favor of the proposition, for the ex
pense of transportaion is thus saved, as
well as the necessity of caring in some
manner for the soldiers on their retnrn
to their native country. It is also con
tended that besides doing a generous act
the Mexican government will itself be
benefited, as its population will be in
creased by persons of the same race
largely, and large sections of the public
lands will be utilized by a substantial
agricultural class.
PECULIAR POISONS
GENERATED IN THE HDMAN BODY
The Result of Imperfect Digestion of
Food.
Every living thing, plant or animal,
contains within itself the germs of cer
tain decay and death.
In the human body these germs of
disease- and death (called by scientists
Ptomaines), are usually the result of im
perfect digestion of food; the result of
indigestion or dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weakness,
does not promptly and thoroughly digest
the food. The result ia a heavy, sodden
mass which ferments (the first process
of decay) poisoning the blood, making it
thin, weak and lacking in red corpuscles :
poisoning the brain causing headaches
and pain in the eyes.
Bad indigestion irritates the heart,
causing palpitation end finally bringing
on disease of this very important organ.
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys,
causing Bright's disease and diabetes.
And this is so because every organ,
every nerve depends upon the stomach
alone for nourishment and renewal, and
week digestion shows itself not only in
loss of appetite and flesh, but in weak
nerves and mnddy complexion.
The great English scientist, Huxley,
Baid the best start in life is a sound
stomach. Weak stomachs fail to di
gest food properly, because they lack the
proper quantity of digestive acids (lactic
and hydrochloric) and peptogonic pro
ducts ; the most sensible remedy in all
cases of indigestion is to take after each
meal, one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, because they supply in a
pleasant, harmless form all the elements
that weak stomachs lack.
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will care every form of stomach
trouble1; except cancer of the stomach.
They increase flesh, insure pure blood
and strong nerves, a bright eye and
clear complexion, because all these re
sult only from a wholesome food well
digested.
Nearly all druggists sell Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets ac 50 cents full sized
package or by mail by .enclosing price to
Stuart Co. Marshall, Mich., but ask
your druggist first.

A TERRIBLE
MINE EXPLOSION
Kills Five and Entombs Twenty-Tree
Men, Near Shoteau, I. T.
Shotkau, I. T., Dac. 13. A few min
utes before 9 o'clock last night in mine
No. 2, of the Indianola & Kathway Coal
Company, three miles from this place, a
terrific explosion took place. Five men
are known to have lost their lives from
its immediate effects, and twenty-three
more are imprisoned in the shaft. .
The explosion was caused Dy the igni
tion of of coal dust after a blast had been
fired. Over one hundred men were at
work in the mine at the time of the ex
plosion, and only about half of these
have been accounted for. .There seems
to be little hops of- rescuing the en
tombed miners, A hundred men are
working valiantly to rescue their com
rades.
It is probable that the interior of the
mine is bnrning, although at present
this cannot be determined. It is also
impossible to ascertain the names of
those who have been killed and bureid
in the mine.
