Captain General Blanco will sail for Cuba on the loth, and Captain General Weyler will re turn to Spain Immediately, General Catellanos assuming the direction o( affairs In Cuba until Dlanoo's arrival. The Marquis de Ahmuda, who was Captain General Weylefs second In command, has resigned. At the meeting of the cabinet Satur day It was decided to send reinforce monts to the Philippine Islands. Mar shal Prlmo Itlvera, who succeeded Gen eral Blanco as governor general of the Philippines, will be recalled Immedi ately.

London, Oct. 11. The Times, com menting editorially this morning on the Cuban situation, says: "If Senor Sa gasta falls to adopt a bold reform pol icy In Cuba, likely to' disarm American Jingoism, it might turn, out to have been wiser to have left General Wey ler to finish' the war In his own fash ion." The Standard, after asking why Gen eral AVeyler Is recalled If It Is Intended to continue the campaign, says: "It seems only too plain that Senor Sa gasta'a course hardly deserves the name of policy. It Is almoBt a device for parrying America's Importunate questions. We suspect that General Woodford presented something very like an ultimatum and that but for American pressure nothing would have heard of autonomy. We doubt that a Cuban settlement Is much nearer. There will be more fighting and more negotiation. Senor Sagasta must walk warily if he proposes to be more than a diplomatic match- .for the American ambassador. - "On the other hand, the Washington cabinet has need to be circumspect. Spain has only Cuba and honor left, and any open Interference with her rights over Cuba would kindle a fire of resentment In which all talk of au tonomy would disappear and the strug gle attain wider dimensions." The Morning Post, In an editorial, accuses the American jingoes of "try ing to force a quarrel with England or Spain for the purpose of diverting the attention of the country from home troubles, Bryanism and the general re volt against the domination of profes sional politicians." It expresses the hope that Spain, like Lord Salisbury, "will maintain coolness and good temper In the face of President McKinley's pro vocative attitude." Mny Demand MlMsClmieros'Surrondoi Washington, Oct. 11. The escape of Senorlta Clsneros from the Casa de Recojldas In Havana may lead to fur ther complications with Spain. Should it develop, as It is expected to, that her escape was planned and executed by Americana sent from this country for the purpose and givrn powerful as sistance here, it is quite possible that the Spanish government may make complaint. As she Is said to be on her way to this country, her surrender may be demanded. Such a demand would most likely lead to trouble, as publlo sentiment In this country would never consent to her surrender. Don't Tobacco Spit and smoke Your Life Away.

Any weakness or disease which inca pacitatea her to fulfill the exalted function of motherhood i's the saddest blight which can come upon a wo man's life. Dut there is no rea son in nature why any hindrances or de rangements of this kind should continue to exist. Ninety-tiine times in a hundred they ari completely overcome in a perfectly natural and scientific way by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, which gives healthy power and capacity to the special organs ; reinforces the nerve-centres and makes natural, healthy motherhood possi ble, safe and comparatively easy. It makes the coming of baby almost free from pain; gives strength and cheerfulness to the mother, and constitutional vigor to the child. It is the only medicine in the world deviied for this one purpose by an educated .physician, a skilled and experi enced specialist in this particular field of practice. " I cannot say enough in praise of Dr. Pierce's favorite Prescription, as it has done me a world of eood, and has.'trndonbteilly saved my life," writes Mrs, Florence Itunter. of Corley, Logan Co., Ark. " I miscarried four times; could get no medicine to do me any good. I concluded to try i'le 'favorite Prescription and after taking leveral bottles of It 1 made my husband a present or a fine girl.

OD Tho Experience of a Wllkes barre Citizen. Thirty years is a long time to struggle against an unseen foe, and this has been the experience of Mr. J. J. Miller, a citizen of Wllkesbarri, residing at 4.1 Church street, much could be told about the circumstnuren surrounding Mr. Miller's case, how he en listed during the war with the 52nd P Volunteers, the exposure and hardships of the campaign, etc., right through to the re eelyiil of his honorable discharge, a lifetime in itself, but this is not the object of tliii short story of human existence, and we will let Mr. Miller give tho facts as he told them to our representative. Said he: "I have suffered for ovor thirty jears from my kidneys. Exposure during the war added to my complaint until it liecaine a confirmed disease. As for remedies recomniouded and prescribed by physicians, I have used too many to mention. Doctors have bad my back thoroughly blistered, and torturefl me in many ways without any relief at all. I used tn get up as often as twelve times in a night to pass urine, and it was a high red color, containing sediment. The urine burned in passage. I could not bond or stoop, and it hurt me to turn over in lied. I had a stinging pain in tho back and most severe headaches. I got some Doan's Kidney Pills at Tuck's drug store and began taking them. They helped mo the second day of use, and I went at them for keeps. I found I had a genuine kidney cure. I took nearly three boxes, and I feel like a young man. I am as good In my back as a new born child, and thank God I am cursd. I test my baox every day and it Is all right. No sir, I would not be without Doan's Kidney Pills if I had to go 100 miles for them and pay $10 a box. I recommend thom overy whete, and am always afraid psoplo won't test thom thoroughly, and I always tell them to take at least three boxes.

A GEM IN M YORK. Bursting of a Water Main Oausos Muoli Property DamagOi LOSS WILL BE MANY THOUSANDS. The Accident Happened In the Hnnrt of the VitHlilounble Dlntrtct, nnd All Jlasoineiite In the Immediate Vicin ity Were Quickly Flooded. New York, Oct. 11. A large oroton water main burat early yesterday morning at the corner of Madison ave nue and Torty-eighth street, in the heart of the fashionable district, and wrought such havoc with property, both near and remote, that not even a partial calculation can be made of the financial damage at present. For blocks around scarcely a building es caped injury by reason of the volumes of Water which poured Into the streets, cellars and basements. The loss will reach far Into the thousands. The damage by the water extends as far west as Sixth avenue and as fat east as First avenue. The sewers were choked hy the great ruBh of water, and then the flood rose In the streets. The big water main was probably cracked by a blast which was tired In a sewer excavation late Saturday afternoon. Then In the nlKht time, when the strain on the pipe was greatest, it gave way and the flood followed. The breaking of the four foot pipe was announced by a rumbling noise which awakened the people In the Immediate vicinity. Look ing out of their windows they saw a great geyser in the middle of the ave nue Hhootlng a vast volume of water into the air, a column so high that it reached almost to the top of the elec tric light pole on the corner. Those who had no view of the fountain heard a mighty rush of water. For five hours this column shot into the air before it was shut off at its source, and in that time 10,000,000 gal lons of water had run down the ave nue and side streets on either hand. All the streets east of Madison avenue slope gradually, and down them the water surged in a torrent, flooding the cellars and basements. The most serious damage was done to the building of the railroad branch of the Y. M. C. A. and to the Knicker bocker Athletic club house. In the base ment of the latter place were located the dynamos, machinery, bowling al leys, bath rooms and big swimming tank. These have probably been ruined by the flood. The club officials place the loss at $16,000. The club house will be closed until the damage has been re paired. After five hours the flow was stopped. Almost without exception the houses in the vicinity of the break were so Hooded that they have been damaged from $500 to $2,000 each. The residence of J. Hooker Hamersley, William Eustace, J. Talbot and the club house of the Delta Phi were among those most damaged. The main which broke was laid in 1874. It has a capacity of .000,000 gal lons an hour, with a pressure of 27 pounds to the square inch.

"I i-i-ad coiisidrralil during my sickness and in my daily paper I noticed ireiinently urtieli-s iec;ardine the wonderful cures made by Dr. WilliamsPlnk Pills for Pole People and liow the pills contained, in a eondensed form, all the elements necessary to ghe new life and richness to the blood and real or shattered nerves.
