I hiring a light rain on thc evening of thc li 1st we pitched our camp in the i mud at the north end of ?Quemados, commanding a (itu- ocean view and thu can:]> of one division of this corps, j (hi Sunday morning, simultaneously i with: thc experimental opening ol': every saloon in town, wi-took charge, j being promised a reinforcement of ?il ? men .ii tho morrow. As the soldiers are shut nut ol' Habana, this town is tho -tamping ground for the Seventh ; Anny Corps, and the fact that when I ih>- Spanish built jails they were made of magnificent capacity was appreei- ? ated ;ast Sunday. The experiment was j sufficient; hereafter saloons will bc | closed Sundays. When application was made to pro vost headquarters for written instruc tions-running a town on tho Kassian or Chinese plan being somewhat out of my line- 1 was told that instructions might come later, but whatever 1 did would bc right, "you can do no wrong." Of course, there is no trou ble with thc natives: they are perfect ly obedient, and I have not seen one under thc influence of liquor, but hun dreds, perhaps thousands, ..f Ameri cans, childly toughs, have followed th anny to this province. Those who had the capital have opened sa loons, while gamblers and fakirs a?'C rushing their trades: then, besides the soldiers, there are ."lilli civilian teamsters. With the barkeepers of the American cities' tenderloin dis tricts catering to titi- das- of custom ers, there is considerable satisfaction in holding a "royal straight flush" ev ery deal and being indiff?rent to any kind of bluffs. There generally is room for American money here, and there must be splendid openings for legitimate: investments, lt is to bc hoped that they will quickly conic and occupy thc field, not leaving commu nities to bc "Americanized'' through the impress and influence of these buzzards and carpet-baggers. The rules for thc preservation of or der and protection of thc soldiers in spite ol' themselves are very strict, and methods of enforcing them severe. They are allowed to drink beer and light wines, and anyone selling a sol dier whiskey or other liquor may have his place closed, temporarily or per manently, as the provost officer in command may 'decide, or he may he put in jail by the .-ame authority. As j a rule, soldiers arc not allowed in Cu ban saloons, wdierc rum and acqiiadi cute are the chief drinks. Two drinks of the latter makes thc American crazy for a day, producing afterwards ! something like nervous prostration. Cubans seem to drink it without trou ble. Hut then, as an old resident here an.t an observant man remarked, "for eigners know how to drink; two can ; split a bottle of wine and go home: tho American, as we soe him in the saloon, wants to drink a barrel-he rarely kflows when he has enough:" Hut there-I did not intend to write anything that might be entitled '.Ten Pays in the Barrooms ol' Two Coun tries.-' The most important work of tho company to guard ab?.ut half :> mil lion dollars of American money.

Thc ancient cemetery at I Maybe, short distance from this town, has rt ecntiy become a place of great intel cst to soldiers. A few evenings ago saw a sergeant of the Second Sont Carolina volunteers coming into cam with a skull in one hand and a ri bone in another. Orders have no been issued excluding soldiers fro: the vicinity. As I understand, if tl rout for lots in a cemetery is not pal for a certain time, the graves arc di up. the bones being thrown out ar scattered around, to make place ft new occupants. Hut they do not wi? these boms removed. Under tl surface strain of earth there is a sol rock many feet thick, ami. as grav digging is a slow process, they aro di ahead of the demand, or, rather, blas ed out. for they are all blasted.

"A reporter for tho T!im& of Cuba - i sit - tho camp every day. and muster out is lin ail absorbing topic. Tho men eal with it. sleep with it. and drink with it, out at the eales. Une of their number applied tu their Senator from his State la-t week imploring him to obtain a disc' arce for the private w!.o had had a plentiful supply of occupa tion as she is managed in (.'nba. The Senator replied that ti" discharges are being considered on account of the plan- now alnio.-teompleted fur sending the volunteer rcgimeuts back to a ren dezvous for muster out. This glad tiding has caused great jubilation in thc regiment, where that happy mis sive was received, and the men are gathering t heil machetes and the oth er Spanish and Cuban relics together for linal packing, and have thrown their Spanish grammars and transla tion books into the cactus fences, and are looking forward to the day when they will again mingle with their friends at homo and resume their for mer avocations." This is glad news to us all if it is . oily true. We will all look forward with joy when the transports will be gin to arrive in Habana harbor to car ry us back to thc States. We have .-cen enough of service of thia kind. There is no pleasure in "sunning rocks" and digging sinks under a tropical sun. We have had no trou ble from tho natives, and are likely to have none. All the military work we have :.> do is to do provost duty walebing I'liitod Stales soldiers. We all feel that weare able to take care of ourselves, but we want a discharge before we begin it. Think of a grown man having to get a pass from division headquarters before he can go into Hal-ana. or a pass from the colonel if he will go accompanied by a commis si..nod officer. This kind of treat ment makes a man a menial, and un fits him for lifo after the army is dis banded. As I can gather, it is.the desire of the great majority of thc men to return to a climate where the sun is not so hot. May thc day has ten, is our prayer, There was a slight rain last night, and one of tho tents having tho guy roj.es too tight the pegs were pulled up. The occupants of tho tent thought some of the mon had been guilty of pulling them up. Some one then accused one of his comrades of doing it. This he denied, and a ".-crap" almost followed. Tho men in thc company met just after dinner and organized a court and proceeded to try thc one accused of pulling the ? pegs. Kach side had its lawyer. Thc "State's attorney" was a corporal from another compauy. The jury brought j in a verdict of not guilty as to thc de ! fondant, but recommended that the i prosecutor bc tried for attempting to get up a "scrap" in tho company. The ! trial comes off to-morrow. Sergt. McMillan, of Co. M, who has been confined to thc hospital for some time with mumps, is with his company again. Co. M has had an addition lately. Trixie, a small Cuban dog. or perro, has conic in as a mascot. She has already forgotten that she at onetime belonged to [a Cuban, for she never \ misses an opportunity ol running af , ter one and trying lo take :i piece out j of his -alf.

Th<- men of tin- regiment uro circulating another petition ask i ni; our representatives in Congress to usc their utmost influence to have the regiment mustered out at an ?'arly .lute. There are several reasons set forth why this should be done. Tin-' men are mostly funner.-, and would Ii*'' io get out in time to piaula crop, or they will bc left high uud <iry when they are mustered out. Then. too. there is no chance to suv.- any money, and there are those at hon..' who ure d?pendent upon these men for sup port. Airain there seem- lo 'rn- nothing hero to do but to sun the rock-. There is nothing that can be done. There i- provost guards at every crook in the road, and cotise.picntly nothing can I"- loamed of the people or of the country except in a very small area. The men arc uot allowed to visit the city at ail. Another is that must of the tuen have trot enough of anny lite. Tiiey are realizing that il is most dcinorul i xi li g to them and they wish to <|tiit. Then. too. this climate is not healthy, ami t'Ley do not care to expose them selves to needless danger, when there is absolutely nothing ut stake. 1 would have given the text ol' the petition, lou I could not secure it. Tl:e-e reasons were gathered from reading it. They arc all reasons that have the ring of truth in them, and should be considered. If the men were allowed to go around and sec something of the country and thereby learn something they would not mind staying herc for sixty or ninety days, but as it is, they want to go home. The petition is being largely signed. In some companies very nearly every man in them have put their autograph. Fully two-thirds of the names in the regiment will be on it when it is sent to Washington. This afternoon thc writer had an op portunity of seeing a native funeral, or rather seven of them. He got u chance to join a detail to go to the city after supplies. Ile took off his non-commissioned officers' stripes and joined the detail as a private. That was tho only way he could get off. While in thc city seven different pro cessions passed him. In all of them he saw no women, the processions be ing made up of men and boys. All of these were of the poorer class. One would be surprised to see a funeral procession go by. The collin is car ried upon the shoulders of four men, with a sipuad of about two dozen men and boys accompanying the remains. These are laughing and talking and sometimes drinking and smoking. On none of those this ufiernoon did there uppeur to bo any sorrow. These bod ies ure laid to rest in the cemetery where their habitation, is rented. When the rent runs out, if it is not promptly puid, the bones ure broken up and thrown in a pile in one corner of the place. The -rent must be paid or the bones will not be allowed to rest. S. F HANK I'ARROTT. ma % m ? - lt is truly wonderful that Lon don's vast population of ti,21)l,(5l?7, located on only 15113 square miles, should have in 1SP7 so slow a death rate as 17.7 per one thousand. This rate is not greater thau that ol' a fairly healthy rural district. Kngland well deserves the name -he hus received as the birthplace and home of sanitary science and practice, thinks the Lon don Lancet. When Baby's 111. When the little loved one is sick, when its brow is fevered, its pulse rapid, its features pinched with pain and there are great blue circles under its eyes, the mother hovers about the bedside, and with anxious eyes tries to read thc meaning of every ex pression upon the physician's face. A woman may save herself almost all of this worriment about her children if she will but take proper care of her womanly health daring the period of gestation. A child horn of a mother who is thoroughly healthy in a womanly way will almost unfailingly be healthy and robust. Dr. Tierce's Favorite Prescription acts directly on the delicate and important organs that bear thc burdens of maternity. It make's them well, strong and vigorous. It heals all internal ulceration and inflammation. It stops debilitating drains. It fits for motherhood and insures a healthy child. Thousands of happy mothers have testified to its merits. No honest dealer will urge you to take an inferior substitute for the little added profit it may afford him. "A laity told me that Dr. Tierce's Favorite Prescription was good to take when with child," writes Sirs. Annie Simpson, of No. i.t. Chelms ford Street. Lawrence. Mass. : "I wits suffering terrible pains, and was linallie to fret nbout the house without being in misery. 1 began toking Dr. Pierce's favorite Prescription and the first bottle greatly relieved me. 1 toole three lioltlcs before my b?bv wan l?orn, nt which time I .suf fered very tittle.

Loss than VM years ago the seed of the cotton plant were considered as practically worthless. To-day the seed are used in manu facturing several different varieties of food products, the production of these articles is one of the South's greatest i ndustrics. Now it is announced that other by products of this plant besides cotton seed oil, oil cake and meal for feed, and hulls for fertilizer are being de veloped. One of these is the use of th?' fiber of the stalk for the manufac ture of bagging. According to the Scientific Ameri can, a machine has actually been per fected for working the stalks into bagging. Some of this cotton stalk bagging has b.'cn tested and pro nounced excellent for the purpose. "It is strong and clean and dues not readily ignite. Five tons of imod stalks will yield about 1,500 pounds of first-class liber. At this rate the anuna! crop will produce all of the bugging needed to wrap the lint and leave a surplus to be devoted to uthor purpose's. It is predicted that ma chinery for inuking course mattings from the liber will bo produced shortly. The Scientific American expressed the opinion that if the experiments, which arc now being made with the liber are successful it will not be many years before thc industry will assume gi gantic proportions." The Chattanooga Tradesman in com menting upon this also mentions that "tin? root of the cotton plant is being experimented with for its chemical properties. The root of thc Egyptian cotton plant yields a drug that has the properties of ergot, and thc root of the American plant, under chemical munipulatiou. has yielded u similar product. This has not yet been fully developed. A difference has been de tected in the properties of the roots of different kinds of cotton, long sta ple and short staple, hence it is prob able that several drugs may be ex tracted from the different varieties of roots." With cottou stulk bagging and cot ton root drugs among thc possibilities of the future, it would seem that every portion of this great Southern plant is of vulue. If the staple itself only brought ubout two cents more per pound the Southern farmer would in deed be blessed.-Honiton Post. The Terrors of a Real Blizzard. A great deal hus been said aud writ ten ubout those blinding storms that sometimes sweep with resistless fury thc western prairies, but without the experience no one, however vivid his imagination, can fully picture to him self such u storm, much less realize all that u blizzard means. j The penetrating wind, roaring and howling, shifting quickly from one point to another, whirls thc sharp particles of snow into the traveler's eyes and nostrils, blinding and smoth ering. It often obscures in a few mo ments every vestige of tract, render ing travel difficult and dangerous. The wolves and foxes that roam the prairies, rf far away from scrub or tim ber when a blizzard bursts upon them, burrow ut once into the drifts and there abide till the storm is over. The grouse, or prairie chicken, fly ing swiftly, presses its wings to its sides and plunges head first into thc snow and there is perfectly sufe. The Indian of the plains if caught away from his tepee (tent) scrapes away the snow with his foot and wrups his blunket closely aboi ' him, creeps into thc hole he has made and is quickly drifted over. But the white man caught out on the prairie often becomes utterly be wildered, wanders around until com pletely exhausted, sinks down and , perishes with the cold. Ko Time to Fool Away. The world will be glad of the as surance that there arc some men in the humblest walks of life who can't be bought with the clink of gold. A Hoosier who lost his wife a few weeks ago was waited upon a few days after the funeral by a man who introduced himself as the agent of a Cincinnati medical college, and he went right to business by remarking : "Mr. Blank, neither of us has any time to fool away. Your wife is dead and buried. I want her body for the .college. I could snatch it any dark night, but that's not my way. How much cash will buy thc body ?" "Digc'cr up at your own expense ?" "Yes." "How much'll you give ?" "Fifteen dollars." "And the coffin ?" "Oh, that's no use to mc." "Stranger," said thc widower, "you skip or I'll shoot. If you think I'm fool enough to throw a $40 coffin in these hard times you haven't sized me np k'rect. Let the old woman stay thar. She isn't costing anything for board and lodgings, and there ain't ? penny out for repairs."-Nur York Sun. -- "1 am losing flesh," said the butcher, "?as the dog stole a sirloin steak'. ?Vcgct?blePrcparatio?forAs si?hilatiiig ibcToodandRegula liiig thc Stomachs aiulB?weis?f 1 NI AN ?S / C HI Ll) K KN Promote s Digestion.Cheerful ncssand Rcst.Contains neither Opium.Morphine nor Mirerai.
