WELL BOX E, OREGON 1 i —* PRIDE OF THE PACIFIC SMASHING SPANISH WARSHIPS. •ke Leaped From the §tde of Her Conaorta to Uet at the fciaeiny—Her Thirteen Inch Gum Tore Open the Iron Riba of the Spanlarda. [Copyright. 18#9. by O. U Kllmrr ] -tSgF"-| lowed the Orc gon 1° I** ' u b at all. They ought to have captured her and made her work her 13 Inch guns agaiust and not In aid of the Brooklyn, lowa and Gloucester. But the Spaniards missed their grand opportunity, and bo on July 3, when Cervera tried to cover up his original blunder by a bold dash for liberty, the Oregon was first to sound the weird siren and fire a gun to alarm the fleet. It is said that when the alarm was Interpreted the men of the crew Jumped and shouted and clap ped their hands In the wildest Joy. No doubt but in that 15,000 mile voyage they expected at every port the news that the war was over, and the Oregon hadn't a shot to boast of. No time was lost over the hurrah lug, however, for Captain Clark set to work to sink the enemy or drive him ashore. Closing In for action and get ting up the highest speed took about 20 minutes, and that time up tile Ore gon was no longer simply a battleship In the fleet, but the battleship of the fleet. At 10 minutes to 10 o’clock, with an astonishing burst of speed, she leaped through the water between the lowa and Texas and with she accu mulations of her long voyage still clinging to her sides kept the lead In the race over the ships with her at the beginning. The Brooklyn had the start and held It, but the Oregon’a speed somewhat surpassed that of the cruiser Brooklyn. When the Oregon cleared the lowa, word reached Captain Clark that the torpedo boats were coming out. The secondary battery of 6 pounders was ordered to attend to the boats, while the forward guns of the racing ahlp pounded away at the Colon and the Oquendo, at that time the third and fourth In the line of escaping alilps. The fate of the boats was closely watched from the Oregon, and the ship's chronicler says It took Just 12 minutes to send them to the bottom. The explosion which settled the Furor Is credited to a shell fired by the Ore gon. one of the G Inch missiles from the secondary battery. After the first triumph of the day, one to which the guns of the Oregon contributed not a little, the great bat tleship rushed on toward the fleeing cruisers. She got within 2,000 yards of the Teresa and opened on her just as she made the beach and lay high and dry upon It, all aflame. The flag was defiantly flying upon the Teresa, and the Oregon raked her savagely as she passed on after the Oquendo. Captain Clark’s attack upon the Oquendo has been called a charge. The ship’s historian so classes it and ex plains by saying that the battleship opened on the Spaniard with the for ward guns and all the guns of the Starboard battery. The Oquendo and Vizcaya were In line, and the Colon was passing them on the inside. The Oquendo was farthest out, and the Oregon closed In to within 900 yards, and after 12 minutes of the hottest fire Imaginable, every man and officer on the battleship fighting as though all depended upon his effort, the Span iard was on fire. Her course was changed to the shore, and the Oregon passed on. Intent upon the chase, rak ing the burning ship as she had done the Teresa. This second victim was terribly cut up, and It Is said that the ■hell which finished her was one from the Oregon’s 13 Inch guns. "We’ve settled another! Look out for the rest!” shouted Captain Clark from the 13 inch turret, evoking cheers and "Aye, aye!” from the crew above and below. When the Oquendo gave up, the Vix caya was two miles ahead of the Ore gon and the Brooklyn steaming neck and neck with the pride of Cervera’s fleet. Schley’s signal to the fleet to close up was passed down the line by the Oregon, and she responded to the call by opening on the Vizcaya with her forward guns and Increasing her ■peed. The Oregon was within 3,000 yards of the Vizcaya when the Span iard made the well known movement of turning offshore as If to rapi the Brooklyn. The Brooklyn received the full fire of the Vizcaya’s forward guns, while her port batteries greeted the Oregon's Intrepid advance. As the Spaniard stood broadside across the Oregon’s bow she was a fine target, and in a few minutes a 13 inch shell •truck her amidships. Volumes of steam and smoke arose from the doom ed ship. The Oregon’s fire was dou bled, and as the smoke cleared from a broadside It was seen that the Viz caya had turned about and was run ning for shore like her consorts. Captain Clark still stood by the 13 Inch guns, and as the change of course brought the Vizcaya upon the Oregon’s port bow he exclaimed to the battery captain: “There's yonr chance! There’s your chance!” At that close range the 13 Inch guns visited awful havoc upon Glorious Nkws Comes from Dr. D. B.Cargile,of Wash ita, I. T. He writes: “Four bottles of Electric Bitters has cured Mrs. Brewer ol scrofula, which had caused her great suffering for years. Terrible sores would break out on her head and face, and the best doctors could give no help; but her cure is complete and her health is excellent.” Tips shows what thousands have proved—that Electric Bitters is the best blood puri fier known. It’s the supreme remedy for eczema, tetter, salt rheum, ulcers, boils, and running sores It stimu lates liver, kidneys and bowels, expels poisons, helps digestion, builds up the strength. Only 50 cents. Hold by A. M. Winn & hon, Druggists. Guar anteed. the Vlxcaya, and she hauled down her colors to escape punishment. The heaviest armored and best appointed ship of Cervera’s squadron, the Vizca ya, was the saddest wreck of the four. When she gave up the tight and turn ed Inshore, Commodore Schley’s flag ship hoisted the signal, "Well done, Oregon!” The Brooklyn had been In the Vizcaya fight, too, hut she was out classed and, some of the naval officers think, would have been defeated by the combined power of the Spunls!) fleet had she been left to bear the battle alone. Captain Clark Bays he thinks that the Vizcaya aa well as the Colon might have escaped but for the j presence of the battleship Oregon In nick of time. It was 11 o'clock when the Vizcaya went upou the beach, and that made It a matter of an hour and a half to put live warships and two torpedo boats out of the way. The Colou, the swift Colon, was left. Would she get away? She was six miles ahead of the Ore gon when the latter turned ’..er etton tlon In that direction. The Brooklyn waa far in the wake, for the Colon had kept close Inshore, leaving the fight to her consorts and inaktug all speed ahead to escape. The crowding inshore of the Colon proved her ruin, for there were head lands Jutting out for miles, and time was lost rounding them. The Brooklyn didn't attempt to follow the Spaniard In her windings, hut kept her course for the headlands to bead her off. Both the Brooklyn and Oregon sent their men to dinner by watches, lor they saw that it was to be an affair of hours to catch up with a ship rated above them both for speed and hav ing such a fine start. On nearing the Spaniard the Brooklyn signaled to Captain Clark, referring to the Colon, “She seems to have been built In Italy!” Clark signaled hack, “She may have been built In Italy, but she'll end on the coast of Cuba!” Captain Clark says that at one time ha feared the Colou would get away. A voice from the fighting top call ed through a megaphone to Cap tain Clark, "Oh, captain, for God's sake, I say, can’t you give her a 18 Inch shell?" The men In the engine room were straining to keep up speed and rapidly becoming exhausted. To cheer them the engineer came on deck and added Uls plea to that of the man In the top. About that time Schley's signal asking for a "railroad train” from the Oregon was seen, nnd the great battleship let go one of her 13 Inch shells. All the ships began firing, but the range was so great that little damage was done. At 9,500 yards, nearly five miles, the Oregon dropped a 1,100 pound shell Just ahead of the Colon, and with the Brooklyn’s projectiles plowing the water Just behind It was evident that It was only a question of time when she must get the full force of the American gnus. She headed for shore, and after the Oregon had land ed a 13 Inch astern of her she struck her colors. It was then 1:15 p. in., and the signal “Cease firing!” ended the great naval battle of Santiago Bay. The controversies over the great na val battles will last as long a» thouo over Waterloo, Shiloh and Gettysburg. But some truths are apparent now In the sober and unvarnished accounts of participants. According to Lieutenant “WE’VE SETTLED ANOTHERI” Eberle's account !n Century, the Brooklyn and Oregon were alone at the scene of battle, while only the masts of the nearest American ships were visible. The New York and Tex as were miles away and did not reach the scene until an hour after the Colon was dispatched. The Brooklyn Is conceded to have been no match for the beat of the Spanish fleet, and this the officers of the Oregon make clear In claiming for their battleship a great share In the destruction of the Vizcaya and Colon. Bays Captain Clark, “I am persuaded that but for the officers and men of the Oregon who steamed and steered the ship and fought and supplied her batteries the Cristobal Colon and per haps the Vizcaya would have es caped.” The gallant captain places the steam ing ami the steering first, because but for that the great battleship might have lost her chance to stand by the Brooklyn. The Oregon and Brooklyn stood together all through, and Schley’s signals to the ships were all seen from the Oregon and obeyed. Having been favorably placed at the outset, the Brooklyn clung like a bull terrier to the necks of the pack, and the Oregon came up as a mastiff to rend and tear the game cornered by her plucky comrade. The details of the fight show that the Brooklyn risked destruction for the points she gained, but that the Oregon was on hand to seize the advantages won by the Brooklyn’s boldness and splendid tac tics. She fired 90 shots less than the Brooklyn, or 1,903. Georoe L. Kii.meb. Discovered by A Woman. Another great discovery has been made, and that, too, by a lady living in this country. “Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for 7 years she withstood its severest tests, but her vital organs were undermined and death seemed imminent. For three months she coughed incessantly, and could not sleep. She finally discovered a way to recovery by purchasing of us a bottle of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, and was so much re lieved on taking first dose that she slept all night; and with two bottles, has been absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz.” Thus writes W. C. llamnick A Co., of Shelby; N. C. Trial bottles free at A. M. otnn A Son’s drugstore. Regular size .0c and $ 1.00. Every bottle guaranteed Against the Dispensary and Blind Tigers. If it was left to nte to say wheth er Gwinnett eoiintv should have a dispensary or not I would say “No,’’ and with due regard for the feel ings of all men, would say how any man who would see the young men of his beloved country’mature into uoble manhood and good cit izeuship, who would allay the | tears and heart-pangs of sisters, wives and mothers, can favor such lan evil is a mysterv to me. It j seems to me it would be far better to try to suppress the already ex* listing evils that tempt and de bauch the citizenship of our coun ty, instead of introducing an ever standing temptation, which would stand as an open-mouthed sepul chnr, ever ready to swallow both the young and mature citizenship of our county, soul and body. It seems, tou, that it would be far better to remove as far as possible every vestage of iniquity that threatens the safety and happiness of our people, and that which we cannot route from its stronghold immediately, to fight without ceas ing, and to never make any conces sions or compromises that would give rise to suspicion in the young generation that parents advocated these evils, and by so doing they will inculcate in them a hatred for one of the greatest evils that has ever been introduced into the world. It iB the bane of human civilization. It dethrones man’s reason and makes him lower than a brute. It has caused more sor row, more heartaches, more tears and deeper sighs than anything that ever scourged the face of the earth. But the advocates say that it would stop blind tigers and sup plement our treasury. I say that it will not stop the blind tigers. You can’t whip the devil by pet ting him. The way to stop the blind tigers is for the Christiafi people and- the best citizens—the men who would seo this country reach the highest pinacle of mor ality—let them tel 1 all that they knew, seek to find out more, and stop shielding them in any way, and surely there is enough of good men in the county to control the grosser element. And as to a dis pensary supplementing our treas ury, I care not if it would fill our treasury to overflowing and form a silver streak around the county, I would still say “No,” for how could I advocate it without a re morse of conscience when I know that the jingle of that money was only the echo of bitter sighs from weeping mothers, wives and daugh ters, and the price paid for many souls. And, O, what a puny price for human souls I Think of the value of a soul. How shall I esti mate the value of it? Well, by its exquisite organization It is the most wonderful piece of me chanician) ever put together. Ma chinery is of value in proportion as it is mighty and silent at the same time. You look at the en gine and machinery in the Phila delphia mint, and as yon see it per forming its wonderful work, you will be surprised to find how si lently it goes. Machinery that roarß and tears soon destroys it self; but silent machinery is often most effective, Bo it is with the soul of man, with all its tremen dous faculties, it moves in silence. Judgment without any racket, lift ing its scales; memory without any noise, bringing down all its treasures; couscience taking its judgment seat without any excite- □lent; the understanding and the will all doing their work Veloc ity, majesty, might; but silence, silence. You listen ut the door of your heart. You can hear no sound. The soul is all quiet. It is so delicate an instrument that no human hand can tcuch it. You break a bone, and with splinters and bandages the surgeon sets it. The eye becomes inflamed, the apothecary’s wash cools it. But a soul oft' the track, unbalanced, □o human power can re-adjust it, With one sweep of its wing it cir cles the universe, and overaults the throne of God. In the hour of death the soul is so mighty it throws aside the body as if it were a toy. It drives back medical Curad of Blood Poison After Dootors Failed In 1872 a small pimple broke out on my leg. It began eating and in four months 1 was treated by a physician of Talladega County, Ala., where I lived. He relieved it for a short while. In six weeks it broke out again In both legs, also on my shoulder Two small bones were taken out. It continued until 1876. In this time I had twelve different physicians. They told me the only remedy was amputation-- that it could never be cured. For six months I could not walk a step. 1 went to Mineral ’Veils, Texas, spent $300.00: came home ami went to Mot Springs, Ark., sta'd nine months—all failed to cure me. lii 1887 I came hack to Birmingham, Ala. I was advised to write you, which I did. Von wrote me that B. B. B. would cure me. I bought ten bottles, and before I had finished uiy fifth bottle my legs began to heal, and in less than two months I was sound and well. That has been nearly twu years ago. and no sign of its return yet. I have spent in cash over S4OO, and B. B. B. did the work that .all the rest failed to do. I have traveled so much trying to get well that uiy cure is well known. Many doctors have treated me in the last seventeen years. AIJ they did was to take what money I had.and did me no good. 1 am now a well man. I'hot. C. 11. Hander, Shady Dale, Ga. Why is it Botanic Blood Balm (B. B. B.) cures when all else fails ?

It breaks thro’ the circle of loved ones who stand around the dying couch. With one leap it springs beyond star, moon and sun and chasms of im mensity Oh, a soul is superior to all material things! No fires can consume it, no floods can drown it, no rocks can crush it, no time can exhaust, it. It wants no plummet with whicn to sound a depth. A soul so mighty, so swift, so silent, must it not be a priceless boul ? I calculate the value of a soul also by its capacity for hap piness. How much joy it gets in this world out of friends, out of boks, out of clouds, out of the the sea, out of flowers, out of ten thou sand things 1 All of the enjoy ment of the soul in this world, the enjoyment wo think is real, is only premature. It is only the en trance, thebeginningof that which shall be the orchestral harmonies of the redeemed. You cannot test the full power of the soul for hap piness in this world. How much power the soul has here to find en joyment in friendship! But, oh, the grander friendships for the soul in the skies! How sweet the flowers here, how much sweeter they will be there I Christ is glo rious to our souls now, but how much grander our appreciation af ter a while. Does it not imply tremendoes value ? Then with such priceless gems as these at stake, let every man who cares for humanity raise his voice in the suppression of such an evil. G.R. Catkh. SIOO Reward SIOO.
