Manila, November 14.—The United
States Cruiser Charlesfon, which
had been patrolling on the North
ern coast of Luzon, was wrecked on the
Northwest coast Tuesday, November 7,
All on board, consisting of a crew of 380
men, so far us is known, escaped without
injury. The news was not received
here until yesterday, and caused great
excitement. The Admiralty has sent
boat to investigate the disaster and to
bring back the officers and crew.
The bare fact of the wreck was first
learned, and it was not even known then
whether or not it was a total wreck.
Later news discloses the fact that the
cruiser ran aground on a hidden reel
near Vigan, and the machinery was
worked for two days and nights trying
to get her off, but a typhoon arising, the
crew was compelled to take boats, and
took refuge on a small island five miles
away.

John J. McKnight of Pittsburg, who
was a corporal In the Tenth Pennsyl
vania regiment, said the other day re
garding the late Colonel ifuwklns: “On
the night of the battle of Malnto the
colonel was confined to quarters on ac
count of II! health, hut the moment he
heard the guns lie left his cot and
rushed, to the firing line. We were
fightlug la the midst of a terrific Htonu
and with Spanish missiles fiylng all
around us when suddenly we of Com
pany I were startled by a cheer on
another part of the line and beard the
atirring about: ‘Here comes pap! Hn--
rah!’ The enemy was so close that wo
could hear the Spanish officers giving
their commands, but there was not a
man in the Tenth who would not have
stood in those trendies until they
would have dragged pap* out.
"He used to tell the young soldiers
who were suffering in the hospitals
from fever and were wasting nway
their vitality through homesickness
that they should keep up their courage.
It was better than any medicine to the
feeble patient when his fat, good na-
tured commander stood beside him
and said in his familiar voice: 'Cheer
up, my boy! We’ll nil get hack to old
Pennsylvania by and by.’ "—Pittsburg

No tonirne esn tell what I have endured
in the paat ten yean with my monthly sick

Cardul. I sent for s bottle, and Oht what
relief. After the first dose 1 begau to feel
o pain eip.?<
WiKMOrd"*
Wine of Cardul not only cures but it acts AT ONCE. Here Is a case
of ten years’ standing, and yet one single dose made the sufferer feel better,
and stopped the pain. The Wine goes straight to the seat of the trouble.
It acts directly upon the menstrual and genital organs. Its action is not
violent, and it does not force a result. It simply gives Nature that little
assistance that the sufferer’s system lacks. A single disorder in the
feminine organs spreads many disorders all over the body, and when the
Wine cures the source, all the other ills vanish as a matter of course. A
woman can be her own physician and cure herself at home. Local ex
aminations are largely things of the
past—the obnoxious custom is no
longer necessary. Wine of Cardui
Is the only perfectly safe and sure
vegetable Wine made to-day for
the cure of “ female troubles ".
