BIGVICTORYFOR 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- vegetable]® aT' W W"W ' Thousands M I Testify To the curative, health-giving powers of Swift’s Specific, the ! only blood remedy to be relied upon for obstinate, deep seated blood diseases.

These were much needed and were sent to the headquarters of General Garcia's camp at Bayamo. The people of the two towns, Jiguani and Santa Rica.came out to meet the victorious f üban army, and there was great rejoic ing among the .inhabitants, who had. be *fore that time, been forced to conceal their sympathy while the towns were occupied by the Spanish soldiers. General Jesus Rabi at once set to work organizing a civil government for the towns, acting under the orders of General Garcia, in a proclamation which he issued two days after the battle. fh«* <4rave« A startling incident of which Mr. John Oliver of Philadelphia was the subject, is narrated by him as follows: "I was in a most dreadful condition. .My skin was al most yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no ap petite—gradually growing weaker day by day.

Mr. Louis Anderson has returned to the city from Washington, where he- went to stand his examination for admission to the navy. Mr. Anderson graduated at Annapolis sometime ago. tyut did not go into the navy. When the war broke out he thought 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 desires,. go upon the waiting list until the depart mi nt thinks that his services are ab solutely necessary, when h'e will be again summoned.

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. The fio- /) , B. WHITECAPPERS OUT ON A LARK. 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.

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” — Literary Digest kkm ICASTORIA I : •• ! «-“ ■-.: ;••■ M ’Wf."
