HARD FIGHT
Southern Rebels Aggressive and Fight
Desperately American Loss Very
Heavy.
Manila, Jane 13, 3 :35 p. tu. Informa
tion believed to be reliable baa been
reached here of the assassination of Gen
eral Luna and his aid-de-camp, Lieut
enant Paeco Ramon, Jane 8, by Aguin
aldo'e guard at the headquarters of Aguin
aldo. Luna and Ramon, it appears, went to
the Filipino headquarters to confer with
Aguinaldo, jfot into an altercation with
the captain of the guard and one of them
drew a revolver. The guard then killed
Luna and Ramon with their bayonets.
Hot Fight All Day.
Manila, June 13, 8:10 p.m. Fight
ing at Las Finas continued hotly all day
long. Lawton called ont the whole force
of 3000 men and at 5 o'clock he was only
able to push insurgents back 500 yards
to the Zapote river, where they are en
trenched. The insurgents reeieted des
parately and aggressively. They at
tempted to tnrn the left flank of the
American troops. American loss con
servatively estimated at sixty. The
battle continues.
Otis Reports the Battle.
Washington, June 13. The following
cablegram has been received from Gen
eral Otis : ,
"Manila, June 13. Adjutant-General,
Washington :
"lawton's troops had a severe engage
ment today with the enemy in a strong
entrenchment at the crossing of Zapote
river, near Bacor, Cavite province. Has
driven the enemy back with a heavy loss.
Our casualties are some thirty. Insur
gents in this southen section were not
molested until they threatened an attack
in strong force on Manila. They are now
scattered and in retreat. It is doubtful
if they make further stand."
Bloodhounds on the Trail.
Cheyenne, Wyo., June 12. Three
trained bloodhounds, from Beatrice,
Neb., were sent from here by a special
train to the point where Curry and one
of the robber's brothers, alleged partici
pant 3 in the Union Pacific robbery, were
seen Friday evening and positively
identified. The dogs will be started on
their track. A telephone message from
Casper at 9:15 this evening said there
was no news at that point. Long tele'
grams of instructions and information
thus far received were sent out by the
Union Pacific today to all sheriffs whose
assistance may. possibly be needed in
chase.
Glorious New.
Comes from Dr. D. B. Cargile, of
Washita, I. T. He writes :
"Four bottles of Electric Bitters has
cured Mrs. Brewer of scrofula, which had
caused her great suffering for years.
Terrible sores would break out on her
bead and face, and the best doctors
could give no help; but her cure is com
plete and her health is excellent." This
shows what tbousands have proved,
that Electric Bitters is the best blood
purifier known. It s "the supreme
remedy for eczema, tetter, salt rheum,
ulcers, boils and running sores. It
stimulates liver, kidneys and bowels,
expels poisons, helps digestion and
builds up the strength. Only 50 cents.

thing he remembers being that for 25
years he has been a commercial traveler,
was found lying on the railroad track at
Gay, 10 miles east of here yesterday
afternoon. He talked in such a ramb
ling way that he was apprehended as in
sane and turned over to the sheriff. An
examination was made by physicians
last night, when it was decided that
perhaps a few days' rest would result in
bis recovering his mental balance.
Mason, in talking with the doctors,
stated that he was 52 years old, a native
of Michigan, and during the rebellion
bad served in the union army. He re-
mem Ders living in Salt Lake for some
time, and thought be had been in
jured, resulting in blood poisoning, and
finally in an attack of dementia, from
which be though he was recovering. Of
the recent past be could remember
nothing. Mason is a man of education
and evident refinement.

Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining; of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for

Will Touch at 'Frisco First.
Washington, June 13. A cable dis
patch from General Otis, relative to the
departure of the Second Oregon, states
that the regiment will be taken to San
Francisco first, for the reason that one
ship could not carry all of them, and it
was desirable to send with the two ships
sick and wounded soldiers, a detach
ment of the signal corps and others who
were homeward bound.
It is said as soon as the Oregon regi
ment arrives at San Francisco the
soldiers who do not belong to it, can be
unloaded and the ships will then pro
ceed up the coast to the Columbia river
and Portland. This will be determined
by the time of the arrival of the volun
teers.
Would Not Buffer So Again for Fifty
Times Its Price.
I awoke last night with severe painB
in my stomach. I never felt so badly in
all my life. When I came down to work
this morning I felt so weak I could hardly
work. I went to Miller & McCurdy'a
drug store and they recommended
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy. It worked like magic
and one dose fixed me all right. It
certainly is the finest thing I ever UBed
for stomach trouble. I shall not be
without it in my borne hereafter, for
I should not care to endure the sufferings
of last night again for fifty times its
price. G. H. Wilson, Liveryman, Bur

HUNDREDS
ARE KILLED
New Richmond, the Greatest Sufferer,
Almost Wiped Out Scores Were
Burned Alive Only a Partial List
of the Dead and Dying is Obtainable.
St. Paul, June 13.-4:30 a. m. Scores
of persons were killed the number may
reach into the hundreds and hundreds
of tbousands of dollars worth of property
were destroyed by a cyclone that swept
across the Mississippi valley east and
slightly north of this city last night,
practically annihilating the village of
New Richmond and causing great prop
erty loss also at Hudson, Wis., and at
Hastings, Minn., and in the section of
country lying between.
How great has been the loss of life,
it is impossible to tell, for the storm has
interrupted communication with Hudson
and New Richmond and reports have
come in a roundabout way.
New Richmond, a village of 2000 in
habitants, according to the story, was
razed by the storm and soon after was
in flames, the injured persons pinned in
the wreckage being likely to die by fire,
The town was crowded with people who
had come from the surrounding country
to Bee a circus showing there, and this
fact added to the destruction of life caused
by the storm. All the hotels of the vil
lage were filled, with gueste.
Throughout the region of the storm,
crops have been destroyed. Grain has
been torn out by the roots or beaten into
the soil. Trees have been uprooted cr
snapped off like straws. Fields and roads
have been flooded and sections of rail
roads on all lines passing through the
storm section washed out.
Coming on the heels of a heavy rain
storm on Sunday and Sunday night, the
storm has turned every email stream trl
butary to the Mississippi in this section
into a torrent. Bridges have been swept
away and much property damaged by
overflow.
Details are Horrible.
New Richmond, Wis., June 13. One
hundred and seventv-five killed and 400
wounded is the estimate of casualties in
last night's storm. This is based on in
formation received by General Manager
Scott, of the Omaha railroad. The relief
train from St. Paul reached New Rich
mond early today. Besides supplies of
every kind, the train brought twenty
nurses and twelve doctors. The storm
struck the Omaha road at Boardman,
and followed the track to New Richmond.
It passed through New Richmond south
to north and leveled the center of the
city, and people were penned in and
ecores burned alive.
