BISHOP STEVENS FAVORS
DISPENSARY.
. Bishop Stevens favors the dis
pensary. In a letter published in
the News and Courier of Monday
he has the following to Bay :
in its essential features, constitu^
tional, it is to hoped that the
press and every good citizen will
recognize it as a law of the State
to be respected and obeyed.
Let the defects of the law be
pointed out in temperate language,
with a view to their removal.
Let no opprobrious epithets be
applied to the institution or its
officials created by the law. Let it
have a fair chance to prove ils
worth.
With the unlimited and
unjustifiable authority of search
and confiscation by constables
struck out: with every muni
cipality free to determine for itself
whether a dispensary shall be
established in its territory ; with
hotel privileges withdrawn ; with
a board of control seeking lo
check rather than encourege the
use of liquor; with the dispenser
not dependent for his position
upon the amount of his sales, but
his faithful discharge of duty;
wich good wares, neither too high
nor too cheap in price, and with a
strict adherence to the law of sale,
we may realize that we have found
the safest andbest solution of the
sale of liquor ever devised.
P. F. Stevens.

THE RAPID RUSH
INTO CUBA.
The Movement is on Today
With all Possible Vigor.
ITEST ATTACHIENI
OF TKOOPS LANDED
And Others I ollowing-Trans
ports With Men and Guns Go
ing Rapidly-The Movement
Ha? Now Assumed the Swift
ness of an Avalancbe.
Washington, D. C., May 23.
According to good authority the
movement on Cuba by7 the Ameri
can army of sixty thousand has
already begun. The first detach
ment of troops is believed to have
landed.
Other transports sailed yester
day and are to sail to-day. The
purpose is to rush the army into
Cuba with the swiftness of an
avalanche, taking Blanco by sur
prise.
. The Cubans are rapidly pushing
towards the coast and are opening
landing places for the American
troops. A battle occurred Thurs
dap west of Matanzas. The block
ading ships witnessed it. About
three hundred Cubans were enga
ged. The fighting lasted all day.
Friday morning the Spanish cav
alry and infantry were retreating.
A Havana dispatch says : "The
insurgents attacked the town of
Palma Soriano near Santiago,
using quick firing guns, but were
repulsed by the garrison. The
Spanish loss was slight."
Naval officers at Key West are
puppied at Blaucho's new tactics.
The signal and searchlights at Ha
vana have not been in operation
since Friday night. All is dark in
the harbor and town.
General Miles said in Washing
ton this morning that he expected
to go south soon to take command
of the army of invasion.
It is the opinion of military ex
perts that our troops will be in
Havana in a few week's time. Great
credence is placed in the report
that troops have alroady started
for Cuba,

As t.lie Spaniards Sec Us.
The St. Joseph (Mo.) Herald
culls some interesting items from
Spanish newspapers of recent
date. From El Heraldo of
Madrid it quotes thus :
"All the troops of the Yankees
are in the far western country
many thousand miles from the
Atlantic coast. There ara only a
few thousand men all told, and
they are iii paid and not willing
to fight. To utilize this force it
will he necessary to bring it to the
eastern seabord. There is but one
railway by which it can be
transported and that is an old and
poorly constructed affair. At one
place this road passes over Niagara
Falls, a cataract 1,000 feet high,
near Labrador. At last accounts
the bridge at this place was in a
very dangerous condition. It
need surprise none to hoar lh:it
some agency did made it still
more so. It w)uld serve the baleful
pigs of Yankees right if their
miserable army was thus drowned.
It another part of the same paper
a correspondent suggests that the
Spanish fleet make a quick run
from Cadiz to the American shrre
which, he says, could he done in
four days-and bombard''Chicago'1
(Chicago) and other seaport. .
The Diaro, another Spanish
newspaper, evidently similar to our
"yellow" jurnals, issued an extra
with the following statement:
"The Yankee Presidente Magginly
committed suicide for fear that
the Spanish fleet would capture
New York." The next clay it cor
rected this, saying that he died
from wounds inflicted by a brave
Spaniard. The Diario also distin
guished itself by publishing a bio
graphical sketch of President
McKinley, in which it bays:
"Magginly is a naturalized
Chinaman, having been born ot
IE
? ii i-rm
alteiDPLat_-huDQor on the part
of The Diprio, but is meant
seriouslv.
A. t? ?mparcial, under date of
April 20. publishes the following
dispatch from Havana :
"Word has just been received
here that the Indians are rising
against the Yankees in Illinois,
Ohio and other places. The
farmers are petitioning the govern
ment to protect them from the
blood thirsty savages, who aro
burning houses and killing on
every side. Troops are asked for
at Colorado, in the State of Denver,
and at St. Louis (San Luis) in
Missipa."
In the same issue The Imparcial
also says :
"We have repeatedly called
attention to the fact that the
Americans are ignorant swine who
cannot take care of themselves
under any circumstances. That
they are imbeciles is shown by the
fact that at Philadelphia the other
day a boiler burst in a cigar
factory and killed 27 people". And
these are the people who dare
to defy and insult the Spaniads,
with centuries of chivalry and
war like history at their backs."
El Pais, another great journal
of Madrid, recently said,
editorially :
"It ie pitiful to see what chil
dren, what weaklings tho Ameri
cans are. They are unable to care
for themselves as infants in arms.
Yesterday there were no les3 thar,
two railway accidents in America,
the total victims being six. They
are ignorant of the use of fteam
and their telegraph poles aro con
tinually blowing clown."
Speculating upon what Spain
should do with the United State,?
when she haB conquered tili:
nation, El Pais says:
"Thc country is not fit to live
in. The climate is execrable.
"When it is not sleeting or snowing
the heat is almost unbearable.
Avalauches are frequent at all
times and these threaten the
principal cities. As for the peoplo,
besides the few whites engaged in
business along the eastern coast,
the remainder of the country is
one vast plain covered with In
dians called cow-boys and great j
herds of roaming cattle."
In one of the recent issues El
Heraldo says:
"News is brought to us that
Buffalo Bill, a notorious outlaw
and leader of a band of half
breeds, has arisen against the
American government and is
burning towns near his birthplace
in New York."
Those references are all a serious
sarcasm, they aro not humorous,
thoy are published as actual facts
so far as the Spanish editors know
them. To us they are extremely
ludicrous, but they manifest the
ignorance ef the people and the
base influence that a gagged press,
under power of steaming and cor
ru pt statesmen aud military lead
ers, exerts upon the pablic of
Spain. They are much like our
"yellow''journals in the publica
tion of figments of the iinsgination
that has run mad.

Oil, the Pain o?
Rhetsmatism!
Rheumatism often causes tlie most in
tense gunering. Many have for years
vainly sought relief from this disabling
disease, and are to-duy worse off than
ever. Rheumatism is a blood disease,
and Swift's Specific is the only cure, be
cause it is the only remedy which can
reach such deep-seated diseases.
A few years ago I was taken v,-lth Inflamma
tory Rheumatism, which became so Intense
that I was for weeks unable to walk. I tried
several prominent physi
cians and took their treat
ment faithfully, bnt was
unable to get the slight
est relief. In fact, my con.
di tl o n teemed to grow
worso, the disease spread
over my entire, body, and
from Novembcfato March

Upon the a rf v i c o of a
