Tbe beach where tbe bathing suit

Pitt’s Carminative la pleasant to the
taste, acta promptly, and never fails to
give satisfaction. It carries children over
tbe critical time of teething, and is tbe
friend of anxious mothers and puny
children. A few doses will demonstrate
its value. E. H. Dorsey, Athens, Ga.,
, writes: “I consider it the best medicine I
have ever used in my family. It does all
you claim for it, and even more.”

Sept. s.—The transport Boumanis,
wbiob arrived here yesterday morning
with 600 troops from Santiago, was
the means of au additional test of the
capacity of tbe hospital in tbe deten
tion camp.
Os the 600 men on the Hou mania
about 200 were so sick tbat they bad
to be kept in tbe hospital. The au
thorities Os the detention camp hospi
tal, although they knew of the trans
port's arrival, had received no notice
as to the number of sick men they
would be expected to care for.
About 5 o’clock tbe ambulance with

ity. By putting ten cots in each tent
560 patients can be taken care of, but
with corresponding decrease of com

A man was laid upon it, balanced in a

awoke the opposite occurred, proving,
that tbe Hood left the head in the one
