Key West, March 10- — The
United States diepach boat Fern
arrived here this morning from
Havana.
The Fern brought the Maine’s
silverware and 60 rifles recovered
from the wreck. Mr. Bissell,
stenographer of the court of in
quiry, was also on board JBoth
official stenographers have now
left the court, and now it has only
a temporary clerk. This leads
mauy here to think that its work
is practically done ana that it will
return to Key West by or before
Saturday.
The Fern coaled and the pro
visions for the starving Cubans
were then put on board. She is
scheduled to sail for Matauzas to
morrow. The Marblehead will go
from the Tortugas to Tampa,
where it is reported she will take
on additional ammunition. The

'1 he bladder was created for one
purpose, namely, a receptacle for
the urine, and as such it is not
liable to any form of disease ex
cept by one of two ways. The
first way is from imperfect action
of the kidneys. The second way,
is from careless local treatment of
other diseases.
SAMPLE SENT VKKR.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of blad
der troubles. It is comfortable to
know that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp
Root fulfills every wish iu quickly
curing bladder and urinary trou
bles. It corrects frequeut calls,
inability to hold urine and scald
ing or stinging pain in passing it,
or bad effects following use of li
quor, wiue or beer, and overcomes
that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to get up many times
during the night to urinate. The
mild and extraordinary effect of
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp Root is soon
realized. It stands tli« highest
for its wonderful cures of the

according to the Doctor’s Book,
and as a result I increased iu weight

I take this method of returning

The women of Meriden, Conn.,

the sidewalks with their skirts.—

A Cure for Heartburn.
That burning sensation in the
stomach, the pains and suffering
which I experienced for five long
years, brought ou by continued
coustipatiou and biliousness, are
almost indescribable. I tried every
known remedy without effect. Fi
nally 1 tried Kamon’s Liver Pills &
Tonic Pellets, following the direc
tions carefully. After taking a
few doses I began to improve. I
have not used more than three
boxes and feel as well as I ever
felt. My restoration to perfect
health I attribute solely to the use
of Ramon’s Liver Pills & Tonic
Pellets, and 1 only wish I could
persuade others to do as I did and
be cured—Logan M. Nalls, Ams
