C h W gtt tion use up their ent VI S 3 cr gfe q just as much 7/ A by overwork or late hours; and nearly all women are compelled by circumstances to use up their vital powers beyond all reason : It may be in housework ;or social demands ; or the bearing and rearing of children . At any rate the candle of life is too rapidly consumed. Some people need to have their natural vigor constantly reinforced in the same proportion that it is used up. They need the fortifying help of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It is a powerful alterative and invigorant of the digestive functions and liver; it cleanses the blood, and makes fresh blood and healthy flesh. Nervous. debilitated women should take it in conjunction with Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription which is specially designed for female weakness and nervous troubles. Mrs. Sallie Kauffman, of Virgil City, Cedar Co.. Mo., writes: “ I had suffered from displacement of internal organs and female weakness for one year. Had a bearing down sensation and very disagreeable feeling after my second child was born; I could be on my feet only a few minutes until he was six weeks aid. then I commenced taking Dr. Pierce’s ('.olden Medical Discovery and ‘Favorite Prescription.’ I took seven l>ottles in all. After taking the first bottle I felt much better. I think lam entirely cured of all my troubles. I can do all my work and am on my feet all day. lam in much better health now than I have been in four years; am fleshy and gaining strength ven- fast ." By writing to Dr Pierce who is chief consulting physician of the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo. N. Y., careful professional advice will be obtained free of cost and specially adapted to the individual case. Dr. Pierce’s great iooopage Medical Adviser will be sent free for 2i cents ; the cost of postage.

SPANISH TAXATION SOME OF THE BURDENS CUBA HAD TO BEAR. Statistics Showing Some of (he Revenues Collected and Expended—Mil- ! lions Will Be Saved When Uncle Sam Takes Control of the Island. Washington, Nov. 15. —Some very interesting figures regarding the receipts and expenditures of the island of Cuba have been sent to Washington by officers of the Cuban military commission, who have made a careful examination of Cuban finances, showing the receipts and expenditures of the island under Spanish rule and also estimates of what will occur when the United States takes control of the island. Among the principle items of receipts in the estimate for the year 1898 are the following: From taxes on real estate, income tax, liquor licenses and other internal revenue taxes, $6,142,500; import and export duties and other incomes from the custom houses, $14,705,000; stamp paper and stamps of all kinds, $1,640,650; from lotteries, $1,900,500; sales of effects of the state, $435,000; from other sources, $1,536,000, making a total of $26,559,650. The expenses are given as follows: For the government of the island under the authority of the governor general, $22,500,808. For the local government (autonomous) as follows: General obligations, $159,605; department of grace, justice and government, $1,612,859; department of the treasury, $708,978; department of public instruction. $247,033; department of public works and communications, $1,036,582; department of agriculture, industry and commerce, $108,178; making a total of $26,374,035. It is estimated that tt[»n the assumption of central of Cuba by the United States expenses now incurred each year under Spanish sovereignty will cease, namely: Civil, military and other pensions, $529,700; the retired list of the army and navy, $1,450,881; interest and amortization of the debts created in 1882, 1886 and 1890, $10,435,183; for expenses of military governors and the permanent military establishment of the island composed of Spanish forces, as well as material for war, $6,108,324; expenses of the naval establishment in the island, $1,100,299; subsidy paid the Compania Transatlantica of Spain, $471,836; salaries of the governor general and other officials and officers, $500,000; making a total reduction of $20,594,225. An item of expense for the government of Cuba under the governor general is designated for the maintenance of the "guardia civil” who are employed as a police force in the suburban and rural districts, which amounts to $2,095,221. Another item under the autonomous government is for the mainitenance of the “orden publico,” a police force used in cities and towns amounting to $565,419. Under the general expenses of the state, an item for the maintenance of the clerical establishment is included,

which amounts to $353,214.

From Yellow Fever Colonel Charles A. Williams and F. T. Stewart Die at Havana. Havana, Nov. 12. Colonel C. A. Williams, the chief of quartermasters, died yesterday from yellow fever. F. T. Stewart, a clerk attached to the quartermaster’s department, also died yesterday from fever. The body of Colonel I Williams will be embalmed and will be | earned directly on board the Ward line steamer Sefturanca, when she arrives from Vera Cruz, for shipment north. Th« remains of Mr Stewart were buried here yesterday afternoon. The deaths have caused a profound sensation. It is a strange coincidence that the only cases of yellow fever among foreigners here lately have been those of the members of the American commissions and staffs. Colonel Williams was a native of Kentucky and a son-in-law of General John B. Gordon of Georgia. Avenged. Murderers Who Participated in the Massacre of Americans Hanged. London, Nov. 12.—The mails from Sierra Leone, West Africa, bring news of the hanging at Kwellu of 13 murderers of American missionaries, members of the United Brotherhood of Christ, in | the Sherbro district of Sierra Leone last May. The massacre of the missionaries re ferred to in the foregoing dispatch, grew out of the dissatisfaction of the natives at the local hut tax. The insurgents burned the mission bouses and inurdere.l a number of the missionaries, among them Mr. and Mrs. Cain and the Misses Archer, Hatfield and Scbneck. Several of the missionaries—Mr. and Mrs. Burtner, Mr. and Mrs. Minshall and the Misses Mullet and W;ird—succeeded, after terrible experiences, in reaching Freetown, capita) of the British colony of Sierra Leone.

It shows that there were expended during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1898. $7,348,795, and that there still remains of the appropriations made for the ordnance bureau, $19,793,359. This large sum is derived from the ap-propriat-jiis for the fiscal year which were made for war purposes amounting to $21,504,592. Regarding the equipment of volunteers, the general thinks it would be as well to have the government equip them instead of their bringing their state arms into service, saying that it could be done as quickly owing to the condition of the arms of state troops.

Paris, Nov. 15.—The court of cassation yesterday examined General Zurlinden and General Chanoine, who recently resigned successively the portfolio of minister of war, and it is said that their evidence was highly important in upholding the attitude they have taken throughout that Dreyfus is guilty, and that a communication of the secret dossier would compromise the safety of the state and the good relations of Fiance with foreign nations.
