NltVKlt more forcibly was the value of the ovotHiifr paper over their morning contemporaries, more forci bly demonstrated than during the past mouth. They hayo neon re ceiving and printing all the import ant news twelve hours boforo it np penrs in the morning dailies. In this connection it might bo well to direct attention to the superiority of the HKHALlVrf news features over that of "ts contemporaries, including the self-bonsting Pottsyille newspapers, which furnish their Shenandoah readers with news that appears in these columns tho day previous. Our county seat correspondence, fur nished by one of the best equipped newspaper men of the county, is greatly appreciated by our thousands of readers in Shenandoah and the Mahanoy Valley. All this makes tho evening paper more desirablo to tho average man, when his day's labor is over, and can at his ease read the news of the day. Tho Hkhai.ii is leading its contemporaries a killing pace, as its increasing circulation shows. Chief of the Bureau. A fow days ago wo published tlio itatenionts of Chief lirownleo, of tho State Bureau of Mines, to the effect ihrtl tliero is no more profit inniiuing coal. Ho further showed by statistics that bituminous coal is gradually driving out anthracite. What Mr. Brownleo states concerning tho rela tive production of tlio two kinds of coal has been known by those who are interested in the industry, and it did not require research on his part to draw attention to a problem that has for some time caused the miners and mino owners of the anthracite region much concern. Bituminous is cheaper, and has supplanted anthracite in the manu facturing industries; but as a fuel for domestic purposes, tlio product of this region cannot be supplanted by the soft coal. The Wilkesbarro Record, commenting on this subject, says "the present need of the anthra cite industry is to plaeo it on a proper basis, enabling operators to realize a fair profit on their coal and at the smuo time pay good living wages to the men employed in its production. Every ono knows that there aro too many mines and too many mine workers in the anthracite coal regions. The result is that tiio capacity for production is nearly or quite double what tho markets will take. It follows that the minoH are only worked a few days each week and the workingmen in many districts cannot earn enough to keep body and soul together, when they have fami lies to provide for. Tlio product of our anthracite mines ought to be dis tributed so as to keep the mino workers employed at least !I00 days in the year." Another well known fact is stated by Mr. Brownleo when ho says tliero are too many miners in the anthra cite region. ThiB surplus of labor is made painfully evident when the paymaster comes around. Steady work at the mines, however, even with no reduction in tho employed, would make tho men who "cut coal" fairly comfortable, While stating these well known facts tho Chief of tho Mining Bureau olTors no remedy. In speaking of tho soft coal as used in the manufacturing industries, it might be well to direct attention to what the press of New York city term "a growing nuisance," hy the chimney-stacks emitting black smoke with the detestable output of tlio bituminous region. When tho ti6o of soft coal was first attempted, a few years ago, there was a fierce outburst of indignation. New Yorkers np peared to take some pride in tlio clear air of their city and in Its freedom from soot and smoke. Those who used ioft coal were looked upon as Hood s Should be la every family B medicine chest amV every m I I traveller's grip.

SPAIN WILL NOT UKC'LAltl! WAV Slio Will Violit to livery Deiituml, Sn.vs A Cuban .Iiintn, Olllclal. New York. March 30. Counsel for Horatio S. Ituhons, of the Cuban Junta, said todnv: "There Is no use of talk lnK of autonomy or anythlnrr else ex cept the absolute Independence of Cuba. The InsurKtMitft are In Kreat hopes that they will cain a decided victory dur ing the summer campaign. This is their strongest time for flKhtlnfr. "There Is one Important in Int to Vhlch I would like to call attention. Colonel A. M. Parker, who was the companion of Senator Proctor In Cuba, states throuch one of the newspapers that the supplies which are going to Cuba through the central Cuban relief committee are Mmllng their way as much to the Spanish soldiery as to the suffering Cubans. Wo have received the same information. We are clad that the starving reconcentrados are being fed, for they are our own flesh and blood, and of course we can say nothing against the feeding of Span ish soldiery. If the United States de sire to feed Spaln'n soldiers let her go ahead. Our army, I might say, which consists of about 40,000 under arms, Is living on the country, poor as It is." Mr. Hubens said that letters and tele grams had been pouring In, many from persons who have hitherto remained conservative, declaring against the at titude of tho United States. He said Spain has reached the, conclusion that the United States will not fight at any cost. "Spnln knows the United States will not fight, nnd so ijhe Is ready to make all manner of advances In that line," Bald Mr. Rubens. "The recognition of Cuban Independence by the 0)ilted States will not bo a causus belli. Spain will never declare war. Spain de clared that she would not pay the Mora claim. When the United States insisted Bhe did pay It, just the same. She refused at first to apologize for firing on the Alllancn, but when told that she must, she did. She con demned tho Competitor's men to death, and nothing could save them, but when the United States told her that they must be liberated they were set free. Spain refused to allow tho United Btntes to send commissioners to Inquire into tho conditions of Cuba, vet Cal houn was sent there, and since then other commissioners have also gone there on Inquiry without interference from Spain. "Spain, through General Weyler, in sisted that no United States war ves sel Bhould bo allowed to enter the port of Havana and that supplies should not he Bent In national vessels, yet both of these things wcro insisted upon by tho United States, and Spain did not even enter a orotest. When the Uni ted States refused to recall ConBUl .General Lee at the demand of Spain nothing was heard of It, and General Lee is still In Cuba. In no Instance where the United States takes a firm stand against Spain will tho latter re sist. There Is no chance whatever of her declaring war." burdock Illood Illttora glvos a man a clear head, an activo hralu, strong, vigoious body makes him fit for tho battle of llfo.

I., In December, 1830, wero recalled yesterday by a hill filed In the su perior court by her as "Sirs. Slaude Evelyn Mix, formerly Miss Shaw." Two months ago the plaintiff married II. L. Mix, a student at Harvard university. She now asks that the so-called mar riage with Farwell be declared null and void on the grounds that she was then a minor, and "that the ceremony was understood by her to be a mock mar riage. The alleged marriage to Far well, It Is said, was the outcome of a wager of a box of chocolates. ::::S::Sml 'V siwiwfl fti mm vH-H-H-rai i wKfc :n in ri in i i r m ABOUT OVAlttTIS. may result from sudden stopping of monthly How, from inllanimatlon of the womb, anil many otuer causes.

The provisions do not improve with the delay, nnd according to reports the Cubans continue to starve.

It has leaked out, was ordered by the navy department. It was by no means In accordance with his personal wishes, nor, as was generally understood at the time, the result of his own appllca tlon. In fact, the navy department ordered him point blank to have the board of retirement appointed, lndl cated Its composition and ordered nlm to nppoar before It. This, which Is the real history of the coos, Is known to but fow, and It uts somewhat of a sensaMonal phase upon Rear Admiral Slcard's withdrawal from the scene of activity.

THE PROBLEM SOLVED. NI5W MEDICAL TJ2STI-:n. 1HSCOVKKV Itesults of tlio Test In Ynrloua Fnrnitt of DyHpopslu. Chronic indigestion or dyspepsia, while a very common trouble, has for some time been looked upon by able physicians as a serious thing, and that no time should be lost in treating it properly at the start, became re cent researches have shown that the most serious, fatal and incurable diseases have their origin in simple dyspepsia or indigestion. Diabetes is simply one form of indigestion, the sugar and starchy food not being assim ilated by the digestive organs. In llriglit's disease the albumen is not properly assimi lated. While consumption and dyspepsia are twin diseases, and it is beyond question that dys pepsia makes a fertile soil for the seeds of consumption. Hut the trouble lias been to find a remedy that could be depended upon to cure dyspep sia, as it is notoriously obstinate and difficult to cure. This lias been the question which lias puzzled physicians and dyspeptics alike, until the question was solved three years ago by the appearance of a new dyspepsia cure in the medical world known as Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets, which it was claimed was as a certain, reliable cure for every form of stomach trouble. Physicians, however, would not accept such statements without first giving the new remedy many tests nnd carefully observing results. For three years the remedy has been thor oughly tested in every section of the country and with surprising and satisfactory results. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be honestly claimed to be a siecific, a radical lasting cure for indigestion in the various forms of acid dyspepsia or sour stomach, gas or wind on stomach, too much bile, undue fullness or pressure after eating and similar symptoms resulting from disordered digestson. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets were not placed before the public until this three years' trial left no doubt as to their value and they have re cently been placed in the trade and can lie found on sale at all druggists at the nominal price of 50 cents per package. No extravagant claims are made for the remedy. It will not cure rheumatism, pneu monia, typhoid fever nor anything but just what it is claimed to cure and that is every form of stomach trouble. No dieting is necessary, good wholesome food and plenty of it and you may rest as sured that Sluart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest it. Druggists claim for it that it is a pleasure to recommend it to dyspeptics, because it gives such universal satisfaction.

The womb is situated back of and very close to the bladder, and for that reason any distress, disease or inconvenience mani fested in the kidneys, back, bladder or urinary passage is often, by mistake, attributed to fe male weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error is easily made and may be as easily avoided by setting urine aside for twenty- four hours ; a sediment or settling is evidence that your kidneys and bladder need doctoring. If you have pain or dull aching in the back pass water too frequently, or scanty supply, with smarting or burning, these are also con vincing proofs of kidney trouble. If you have doctored without benefit, try Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy. The mild and the extraordinary effect will surprise you. It stands the highest for its wonderful cuies.
