Points and Finds All Quiet. RURAL GUARDS WILL BE DISBANDED 'The North American Trust Company Madeihe Government Depository. American Banking; Methods Are Being Established. HAVANA, May 13.—Major General Wilson, military governor of the new department of Matanzas and Santa Clara, has visited within the last ten days every railway point in Santa Clara province and seen every alcalde, judge, priest, schoolteacher; banker and im- portant planter in the localities he has visited. He now intends to go on horse— back to many of the communities off the railway lines. At several points where he received reports of brigandage he made it a point to investigate these p‘ezsonally or through members of his staff. While he was near Calabassa he was told that six bandits had attacked the Los Angeles 5 estate and been driven off by the police j after a sharp interchange of shots. He sent Lieutenant Colonel Reber and the Cuban general Jesus Monteagudo to make inquiry. They found that there had been no bandits near the estate and that the only basis for the story was that Mr. McCullagh, owner of the Uni- dos estate, had seen flashes and heard firing in the direction of Los Angeles. The theory is that some Spanish tobac- co buyers had arranged to have shots fired to give color to rumors of the pres- ence of bandits in order to cause timid- ity among tobacco sellers and thus se- . cure sales at low prices, the buyers em- I phasizing the danger of the warehouses being buined if there w me any delay. Very greatly impressed General Wil- son was with the docility of the people . in the country which he traversed, and i he earnestly deprecates the acceptance, without proper investigation, by the newspapers of “wildcat stories circulat- ed bygossips or designing persons, es- pecially by those who wish to get jobs gas rural policemen.” He believes, he 1 says, that there is no more need for 1 rural guards in his department for in- I l 1 \ , stance, than in the United States. President McKinley, through Adju— , tant General Corbin, has instructed Governor General Brooke .to make the North American Trust company here the depository of all the funds of the government in the island, and conse- quently the money now in the strong rooms of the custom house will be im— mediately moved to the bank. Yester- day $500,000 was deposited, and today $1,500,000 will be transferred. It is expected that American banking methods will increase in popularity in the city, particularly the check system, which was formerly practically un- known. Many customers of private .banks now demand the introduction of this feature. The North American Trust company is loaning largely on bills of lading and'other equally good securities. The institution refuses at present to lend on mortgages, as the laws regulating them are apparently not quite clear. During the month of May 340,000 in- digent rations will be distributed in Ha- vana. According to a dispatch from Puerto Principe city, an American syndicate has secured the electric lighting fran- chise there for $70,000, and another syn- dicate has purchased about 33 1-3 acres of land for $100,000 and will construct a 1 sugar factory. i ; Doings In Santiago. f SANTIAGO Cuba, May 9,—The mu- ' niclpality of Manzan-illo, this province, has purchased an oil painting of Colo- nel Pettit, military governor of the city, and has hung it in a conspicuous posi- tion in the city hall with elaborate cei- emonies. The Tenth‘ United St ates cav— ah y has arrived at Manzanillo. Heavy rains have fallen every afternoon of‘ late in this section. The United States suivey stea...er Yankton, formerly the Penelope, has begun a survey of the bay of Guantanamo. Faith Curist Arrested. has ordered the arrest of Mrs. Maria Miller of 312 East Twelfth street, the faith cure doctor who attended Lizzie Kranz the little girl now dying of gan- Cgrene in the Eastern District hospital Brooklyn Not in years has such a ' shocking case of charlatanry at the ex- pense of the untold tortures of a girl of 12 been brought before the board of *health. The details—the reciting of in- cantations while smoke curled from 13 jars by the bedside, the monstrous cru- elty to the child, whose flesh decayed until the foot was ready to drop off—— reads like some horrible story of the incredulity and superstition of the mid— dle ages. ' Fighting on the Nile. LONDON, May 9.v——The foreign office has received news from Unyoro that Colonel Evatt attacked Chief Kabarega on the east bank "of the Nile on April 9 and completely defeated him. Three ,hundred of the enemy were killed, and Kabarega himself, who was severely wounded, and King Mwanga were taken prisoners. Colonel Evatt’s losses were two killed and 20 wounded Uganda sol- diers.

NEW YORK, May 9.—The Times General Wilson Visits Manyl prints the following: “The incorporation at Trenton yes- terday of the Kern Incandescent Light company is a. new feature in the gas rate war now going on in this city and one which its promoters assert will 1' make gas at the prevailing rates quite ' us profitable to the warring companies as it was at $1.10. The capital stock of the company is $12,000,000? Its object is to manufacture a patent burner. “A meeting will .be held today at the auice of Coudert Bros, counsel for the company, when the officers and di- rectors will be announced. A signifi- cant feature in the directory of the new company will be the appearance there-‘ in of ofiicials representing the various gas companies of New York. “Frank S. Hastings, a director in the New Amsterdam company, who is in- .terested in the Kern light, said that it_ i meant a ,distinct cut in the costof gas ‘to consumers. Mr. Hastings said he thought the rate would eventually be in the neighborhood of 75 cents.” BASEBALL SCORES. Results of Yesterday’s Games In the National League.

Doctors treated me, but with no help. I had bearing-down pains, burning in stomach, kidney and bladder trouble and my back was so stiff and sore, the right ovary Was badly affected and everything I ate distressed me, and there was a bad discharge. I was confined to my bed when I wrote to you for advice and followed your directions faithfully, taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound, Liver Pills and using the Wash, and am now able to do the most of my housework. I believe I should have died if it had not been for your Com- pound.

Why, I could almost trace every step the horses take by the bloods tains left on the ground. The ground was frozen just enough to cut the horses’ feet, all to pieces, and the poor animals hobbled along like they were walking on- glass, and every now and then sinking in frozen mud up to their knees and pulling their feet out dripping with blood. Occasionally the horse would give a groan of pain, and on looking down one could see blood swollen legs. How the mails ever got through I can’t understand. I think the mails ought to be stopped until the roads get- so they can be traveled with- out inflicting such cruel punishment on the horses. ”——Glasgow (K3. ) News. Fresh Eggs and“ Prices. Your pullets should now be performa- ing their duty by laying eggs. Club with your neigthrs to make up a crate, and ship them to the large cities. “Strictly fresh” eggs have no campe- tition in market; they average from four to eight cents more a dozen than cold-storage eggs. Anybody can -make “early-hatched” pullets lay, and get eggs in Winter, because that' IS the way to start in the business, and the reason is that you must give the pullets time to mature before cold weather begins in the fall. Keep them warm and at w01 k, ‘ save your vegetables, and give them a - change of food frequently. Always e11- deavor to hatch the pullets early if y ou want them to lay early. — Farm and Fireside. / Q3 Q: Q 5 i l i i Q .9 [11/1 [Ill/lI DRUGGK)? DOESRDT $ELL C TOCQLATE.
