THE COBB
Account of the Battle Has
Just Reached the Cuban
Junta at New York,
IT WAS TWO TO ONE,
But the Cubans Cot the Best of It
In the Province of Santiago -
Taken by Surprise.
New York. June B.—News has just reach
es] rhe Cuban Junta in this city of a vic
tory acbfed by th Cuban forces ove- the
tory aehievd by the c’uban forc-'s of San
tiago on May 22. It was one of the mast
decisive battles which the patrlj s hare
gained In many months and the most im
portant one since war was de. lar i by the
United States against Spain.
A column of Spanish soldiers 1,300 strong
acting under orders from Havana to aban
don the interior towns and advance toward
the <'<: t, evacuated the town of La Piedra,
after having destroyed their forts and for
tifications to prevent them from falling
into the hand- of the insurgents, and
camped at Jlguani, where they expected to
remain, awaiting further orders. They
were also joined by a detachment of .',OO
Spanish soldiers from Santa Rita, ml the
two forces were united In Jigu.ini.
The Spaniards were surprised on the
morning of May 22d by being attack, d by
a division of the first corps belonging to
General Calixto Carellis' command, under
the leadership of Colonel Joie Jesus Rabi.
With him also were Colonel Lori, com
manding the first cavalry, ail Colonel
tMo.italre, of the Infantry regiment. “Cuba
Libre." The Cubans. al‘og?ther, number
ed a little more than 1.000 men. while the
Spaniards had full twice that number.
The Cubans advanced in good order, be
ing well equipped with arms and ammuni
tion, and took the enemy completely by
surprise. At the start the Spaniards scat
tered. but afterwards made an effort to
rally their forces. They only succeeding
in being able to retreat in regular order
to the village of Palma.
They were reinforced from several hun
dred men from Aguaeote and lArroya
Blanco, and turned upon the Cubans, and
the battle was renewed with fury. The
Spaniards were beginning U> recover some
of the ground which they had lost, when,
at a most oportune moment, the cuiban
regiment 'Aguillera." came up from Gen
eral Garcia's command, and attacked the
enemy in the rear Simultaneously with
this, the regiment "Santiago” atta-ked
them on the left (lank, so that the Span
iards weref ore, d to tight hemmed in on
both sides. ’
The Ct.l ans succeeded in taking several
advantageous positions, which they main
tained throughout the fighting. In their
flight from their camp at Juguani the
Spaniards wer. (forced to leave behind
much of their ammunition and supplies,
so that they were, to a (wand jr.ibie ex
tent handicapped in fighting, while, on the
other hand the Cubans seem to be well
equipped and on the aggressive.
After six hours of hard fighting at Pal
ma. which is only a short disatnee from Ji
guani, the Spaniards raised a flag of truce
and expressed themselves as being willing
to surrender. Terms were immediately ar
ranged and the Cubans lack as prisoners
one Spanish colonel, seven captains and
neveral other officers, besides 10.1 soldiers.
The Spanish loss amounted to seventy-six
dead, besides a large number who were
wounde. Included in the Spanish losses
were thirteen qffleers.
The Cubans sustained a heavy loss, but
it was considerably smaller than that of
the Spaniards. It is reported that th*ro
were forty five kilted, including five off!
cers of lesser rank, and about sixty woun
ded.
After the battle, which was one of the
'bitterest of the war. the Cubans returned
to Jiguant. There' they recovered a large
quantity of arms and ammunition from the
deserted Spanish laiiir. together with pro-

two days after the battle.

Fortunately a friend advised trying “Elec

stand his examination for admission to the
navy.
Mr. Anderson graduated at Annapolis
sometime ago. tyut did not go into the

it to be his duty to prepare himself should
his services be required. He notified the
government that he was ready and was in
structed to appear at Washington and
stand the examinations.
He passed all of them successfully and
might now go into the navy as an ensign,
ibut he has been told that he can if he so

ENOUGH MONEY
IS IN SIGHT
For the Work to Commence
Soon on the Catholic
Church.
CONGREGATION IS IN EARNEST
And Is Determined that the Building
Shall Not Be Delayed any
Longer if Possible.
The work of completing St Joseph's
Catholic church will commence soon and
will be pushed as rapidly as possible.
When completed this w ! ll be one of the
very finest jchurch edifices in the state.
At the service on last Sun 1 17 Father
Winklereid referred to this matte- and
urged the cooperation of the congregation
in this work.
The sum of SIO,OOO is in sight and will
be in hand before long. Other monies can
'be secured from other sources and the
members of the congregation are 'very
hopeful that there will be but little., if
any, delay in the matter now, when the
(ball once beglne to roll. *
The church was commenced some time
ago, but on account of the financial strin
gency all over the country it was thought
advisable to suspend the work temporarily
rather than skimp it. But the time has
now come for the recommencement of the
plans that the congregation finally intend- .
ed to carry out.
While not a rich congregation the people
of St. Joseph are thoroughly together in
this work and are anxious to' see the
chur di completed.
Father Win'klereid himself is more 'than
espedlally anxious about it, as he feels
that the work of the church proper would
be greatly aided if the church was com
pleted.

Horrible Crueltv and Several
Tragedies the Result of
Their Spree.
Chilicothe, 0., June B—Two8 —Two men are dy
ing and another is seriously injured as the
result of a wild prank of eighteen promi
nent young men of tills city.
These young men started out on a “white
capping” expedition to avenge the alleged
wrongs of a woman, and five of them are
now in Jail. George Jacobs has been living
on the farm of 'Mrs. Allen, a widow just
over the line in Fayette county. He was
ordered to move two weeks ago, but paid
no attention to the notice and last night
eighteen of Mr. Allen’s kinsmen assembled
to eject him. They proceeded to the house
and tried to break in the door when Jacobs
fired a shot gun into their midst. The
heavy charge took effect in the abdomen
of Dean Hidy, inflicting a fatal wound.
Jacobs fired again, and then using his
gun as a club, broke the arm of William
Everhart He was overpowered at last,
bound hand and foot, gagged and dragged
across a field to some woods, where he was
tied to a tree and beaten into insensibility.
His household goods was then loaded into
a wagon,Jacobs was thrown in with them
and the gang started away. In the mean
time iMrs. Jacobs had escaped from the
house and given the alarm. A posse of
neighbors was quickly organized and cap
tured five of their number.
Jacobs was nearly dead when released
from his* position and is in a critical con
dition. ■*«
MACON NEWS WEDNESDAY EVENING, JUNE 8 1898.
A KINGDOM FOR A JEST.
How ’.Vjiiii.ci I*s T.m-! Got the Title of
• Kinff of Yiet’iL
Gerald E revan v.■ it ■> ! r Ft Nicholas
art Art icle on “The Kingdom of Yvetot.”
After telling of tiie hare facts of history to
be gathered from legal jatpere Mr Brenan
says:
X.av for tradition as unearthed by M.
d’Hnutcrive from n.rwy a musty tome or
taken down by thr good cure of the village
from the l', ; •of old i-ari.-hieners Thia
“Ansfrod, staled ’ k-ilniie. ’ or 'the humor
ous,’ ’ was, it serins, ruu.e other than Wil
liam I's court jester. and his stone image,-
in cap and Ixlis arrayed, stood in the din
ing hall . f the Chat.au d’Yvetot until
those terrible fellows, the revolutionary
soldiers, pulled down both house and
statue.
Those who love to stray in history’s by
ways will n member that when William
the Conqueror landed on the English coast
he tripped and fell with extended arms
u|xm the strand. Most of his followe-s
would have regarded this as a bad omen
had not the monarch, with rare presence
of mind, quieted their fears by exclaiming
that he was “grasping the soil of England
in his arms.” Now, tiadition in Yvetot
has it that the person who whispered this
cunning reply into the ear of the prostrate
William was our witty acquaintance, the
court jester Ansfred. •
When England had been won, the story
goes that the king remembered his hum
ble jester’s timely whisper and, calling to
him to the foot of the throne, bade him
ask a boon byway of reward. Ansfred
jestingly replied, “Ah, my good king, I
have an ambition too lofty fur you to
gratify!”
Greatly piqued at this speech, even from
such a privileged joker as his “court fool, ”
William insisted upon knowing what the
ambition was which the sovereign of Eng
land and Normandy could not make good,
whereupon, jingling his golden bells gay
ly, Ansfred said: “In sooth, friend Wil
liam, I desire to become a king, like your
self. Nothing less can satisfy me.”
At this the nobles of the court set up a
mighty shout of laughter, looking upon
the affair as another of Ansfred’s sallies,
but the king laughed louder than them
all. Recovering from his mirth, he cried
out: “Ansfred shall have his wish. When
we get back to Normandy, we will give
him a kingdom of his own.” Then, sum
moning his chancellor, he demanded the
name of “the very last place in all his do
minions, the most barren and waterless
waste in his possession.’’ The chancellor
consulted his great books and found that
the last place mentioned was the hamlet
of Yvetot. Moreover, this hamlet stood in
the treeless, springless plain of Caux and
was an extraordinarily desolate spot, little
thought of by the abbey of St. Wandrille,
to whose monks it belonged.
William laughed again when he heard
of Yvetot, and in pursuance of his pledge
when he returned to Normandy ho took
Yvetot away from the abbey and gave it
to Ansfred. the jester. In the nearby vil
lage of JJolbec, amid great merriment,
Ansfred was formally crowned “king of
Yvetot.” Everybody looked on the coro
nation as a joke—everybody but Ansfred
himself. As was often the case with these
.jesters, the lolly of this “fool” was only
on. the exterior. No sooner had he acquir
ed possession of his small kingdom than
he built himself a tower there arid set
about planting the wastes atound. The
tre-. s glow, !,ut King Ar-sfr. d could think
of no plan that would supply Yvetot with
water Always, till he died, Ansfred re
tained rhe. title of “king.” and, William
the Conqueror s sons being busy with their
wars, none tried to take it from him.
Ansfred s son and hejr, Richard, second
king of Yvetot, went to the crusades in
1096 and fought with great bravery.
Remarkable Rescue.
Mrs. Michael 'Curtain, Plainfield, 111.,
makes the statement that she caught cold
which settled on her lungs; she was treat
ed for a month by her family physician
but grew worse. He told her she was a
hopeless victim of consumption and that
no medicind could cure her. Her drug
gist suggested Dr. King’s New Discovery
for consumption; -she bought a bottle and
to her delight found herself benefitted
from the first dose. She continued its use
and after taking six bottles, found herself
sound and well; now does her own house
work and is a.s well as she over was.

THE ROMAN WALL PICTURE
Mow Thought Not to Be a Representation
of the Crucifixion.
The now famous grafTitto, or wall
scratching, recently discovered in Rome
was at first thought by archaeologists to
be possibly a rtide contemporary repre
sentation of the crucifixion. According
to an article by Dr. Albert Battandictr in
Cosmos, experts have, now quite abandon
ed this view of the meaning of the picture,
though they are not jet agreed about
what it does represent. After (quoting the
earlier theory of the Italian antiquarian
Maruechi, the article to which reference
h;is been made, Dr. Battandier goes on to
say:
“We must confess that the impressions
received at first .sight have begun quickly
to disappear. Other arclueologists .see
quite differently, and M Maruechi him
self has become k s.; ]*>sitive, as thb char
acters, having been washed repeatedly,
come out more clearly It is now impos
sible to defend the earliest explanations,
and we are obliged to mourn the loss of a
discovery that would have Ixien valuable
for many reasons, hut useless for our
Christian faith. The giispels ,ought to
suffice us. ♦
“Let us speak first of. the scene repre
'sented at the bottom of this series of graf
fitte. Th. re are. in fact, a large numlicr
of inscriptions, one above the other, and
we should he foolish to suppose that all
must necessarily !>e on the same subject.
We should cbsiTve first that tlu> design is
very rough. The part of it that is clearest*
represents perpendicular posts united lira
transverse bar and forming a sort of por
t-ico, with ladders for mounting. .Several
of the persons represented have names
written over their heads, for the most
part illegible ones Thus we have Nostu
lus, Euiogius, Secundus. or. better, .Tocun
dus, and finally Pilatus, of which there
remain only the syllables ’il and'*tus '
Higher up we find numerical signs.
“Now, the explanations of this scene are
as numerous as they are hypothetical.
“First of all, on account of a name that
was thought, to be ’Crestus,' at the login
ning of the grallitte, it was regarded as a
view of the crucifixion. This is what has
given to the drawing its great notoriety
and has already caused floods of ink to be
shed on the question. Others have seen in
it a naval maneuver. The posts are masts,
only unfortunately there is neither ship
nor sea. For others it is a mason’s scaf
folding, rtaced here as a kind of rough
preliminary plan of the proposed manner
of doing some piece of work, but this does
not account for the drawings of people
and still less for the names written over
their heads. Some archa'ologists find here
the prei arations for an exhibitio n of rope
walkers or acrobats, and iu this case the
figures would represent the princijial ac
tors with their natnes written over their
heads. It is probable also that it may be a
representation of some imaginary scene
traced by soldiers with plenty of leisure
ami nut strong on ;>erspeetive, who occu
pied an idle hour in drawing a picture that
had nothing real, to cot respond to it. Fi
nally, to close this series of interpretations
with a note of humor, some have thought
this to represent the preparations for an
exhibition of fireworks, us if powder had
been invented epoch!
“Above the scene there are numerous
inscriptions, and it has been noted already
that these do not relate necessarily to the
design placed below them. An attentive
examination shows that most of the in
scriptions are not fit for ears polite. Os |
the words supposed to lx*. ‘Christ’ there j
remain only the letters CHE S. A hole
in the wall has caused the intermediate
letters to disappear.
"We see how the discovery of these fa
mous graffitti that have created such ex
citement both at Rome and abroad appears
at the present time. It would doubtless
have been very interesting if the first ver
sion had been corrcst, but historical truth
obliges us to confess that It was not” —

Two Diseases That Cause Their i
Victims to Be Shunned by
Their Fellow Man.
Springfield, Mo.
Gentlemen : I commenced taking P.
P. P., Lippman s Gr«j. Remedy, last
Fall, for Erysipelas. ?Jy face was com
pletely covered with the disease ; I took
a short course of P. P. I’., and it soon
disappeared. This Spring I became I
much debilitated and again took an- i
other course, and I am now in good
condition. I consider P. P. P. one of I
the best blood preparations on the i
market, and for tliosfe who need a gen- 1
eral tonic to build up the system and
improve the appetite I consider that it
has no equal Will say, anyone who
cares do try’P. P. P. will not be disap
pointed in its results, and I, therefore,
cheerfully recommend it.

Erysipelas and Scrofula cured by P.
P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy, - surely
and without fail.
Springfield, Mo.
Gentlemen: Last June I had a
scrofulous sore which brokeoutonmy
ankle. It grew rapidly, and soon ex
tended from my ankle to my knee. I
got one bottle of your P. P. P., Lipp
man's Great Remedy, and was agree
ably surprised at the result. The entire
sore healed at once. I think I have
taken almost every medicine recom
mended for scrofula and catarrh, and
your P. P. I’, is the best I have ever
tried. It cannot be recommended too
highly for blood poison, etc.
Yours very truly,
W. P." HUNTER.
P. P. P. cures all blood and skin dis
ease, both in men and women.
Rheumatism, which makes man's life

edy. It makes a PERMANENT cure.
P. P. P. is the great and only remedy
for advanced cases of catarrh. Stop- ;
page of the nostrils and difficulty in j
breathing when lying down, P. P. V.
relieves at once.

its various stages, old ulcers, sores and I
kidney complaints.
