The present low rate of mortality la

made In medical science nnd tbe knowl
edge of the specific treatment needed
for each disease known.
There is no disease m ire common
among Aittertcun and English people
tluin dyspepsia. S*» prevalent hna it
become that thousand* suffer with It
half unconsciously, consider tbr symp
toms an natural to their phvMcal con
stitution and resign themselves to liv

There I* a remedy for dyspepsia, and
only one. recommendeil und endorsed
generally by physician*: Stuart -* Dys
pepsia Tablets have sto.nl the teat of
years of use hv millions of sufferer*,
have been subjected to goxernmental
analyses In Kurope and America and
alone have been found to contain the
elements which Nature has put Into
the stomach foY digestion—pepMn. di
astase and other ferments.
Htuart's Dyspepsia Tablets relieve
the stomach and boxxeln in a perfectly
natural way by helping them do their
work. If the stomach Is xveak In gas
tric juice, Htuart's Tablets make up
the deficiency. If the muscles are In
active. Stuart's Tablets Invigorate
them. Htuart's Dyspepsia Tablets di
gest every form of food entering the
stonmeh. one grain of the active prin
ciple of these Tablets being capable of
digesting 3.000 grains of meat, eggs and
4»ther foods. They are not cathartic
pills;—their action Is simply that of a
digestive.
Htuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure
nothing but dvspepala. waterbrash.

of food, but these diseases they posi

from the houses. One huge building
fell across the street and blocked the
street. Then followed absolute* dark
ness. Great clouds of dust, mortar and
debris filled the air for five minutes,
and when the light was restored my
companion and 1 found ourselves black
with dust and dirt. We looked like no-
grow. ft way a^ miscellaneous group.
Pwpts Prgyttffor Merey.
The scene that followed beggars de
scription. Women were embracing
their little children and others were
on their knees praying loudly nnd with
the nust Intense feeling to God with
such words as "Lord, have mercy on
un!" "God. have mercy on u»!" "Christ,
have mercy on us, nnd save us!" Others
had fainted nnd others were runnfng
about wildly, looking fur their loved
ones.
Wo climbed over the fallen loads of
brick and mortar and got bark to the
club. The building wn* in ruins. The
roof had collapsed, and the room where
we had been dining xvaa filled with
tons of brick from the fallen walls,
young follow, hatleaa und conttauc with
a handkerchief around his head, ad
dressed me In the street outside the
club for several minutes. At length
something peculiar struck me. and I
asked If he waa Gerald Toder, my
friend for many years In the house of
common* and ex-member of parlia
ment for Brighton. He teplhsd that he
waa Ttaler.
Women Wrapped in Blankets.
He- was waiting in the reading room
on the second floor of the club when
the roof fell In. He hud been pinned
to the floor by the ruins. By freeing
himself from his coat he escaped to the
parapet and descended by a ladder Into
the atreet. The most awful sight was
poor Mr. Bradley, a member of the
club, lying dead under the great fallen
pillar of the building.
At the Constant Spring hotel, a few*
miles from Kingston, 1 found my bed
room shattered and the roof cleaned
off. 1 found number* of ladles, who
had been taking an afternoon reat In
their rooms on the lawn, with blankets
and bed clothing around them. During
tho long hours between sunset and
sunrise we felt at least three earth
quake shock*. The blaxc of the raging
fire over the city wus plainly visible.
Old Houses Destroyed.
At dawn I got coffee and then drove
to Kingston. For mile* along the road
encampment* of families were seen
outside their house*. In Kingston 1
drove many mile* through the streets.
At least i»o out of every 100 houses
were damaged. This 1 say from per
sonal observation. Yet nine-tenths of
the houses were old, and many of them
ought to have No n destroyed long ago
On arrival on board our good steam
ship grent Joy was expressed to find
Hlr Alfred Jones, notxvtthatandlng hi*
miraculous escape, giving orders clear-
|y, coolly and forcibly to hla secreta
ries to meet the trouble.
City Will Bs Rebuilt.
"Let 100 light wooden structures be
erected at the Constant Bpring hotel
and 100 at Myrtle Hank hotel," was the
first order, then followed Instructions
for cixoklng for the poor (teople. Then
Hlr Alfred sent a telegram congratu
lating his staff at Conntant Spring on
thetr extraordinary efforts to provide
for 30o houselrsn guejqs. I asked Hlr
Alfred what effect the disaster would
have on the future of Jamaica.
“You can take mv word for It this
culamlty'wUI not Interfere In ths least
xx ith the Vrogress and prosperity of the
Island.” he replied. "The produce nnd
product* of the country* have not been
Interfered with In the slightest degree.
The turners that have been destroyed
are mostly old and deserved to be de
stroyed. The prosperity of the Island. I
repeat, has not been affected." He said
this In the cheeriest manner, and we
believe him.
NINETY CHILDREN SLAIN
Continutd From Pag* On*.
Columbia from Admiral Evans,
says that tbe whole coast line of
Jamaica has been chaugcd by a
huge tidal wave. No bay has been
left, it is reported. The whole
coast line » reported sinking and
the entire south'side of Kingston,
the message says, is under water.
With a big part of the city al
ready under, the ocean, more is.
steadily disappearing, tho people
•re homeless find starving and the
•teamship l’rinr. Waldemar is on
the rocks. Tho liner was sent
aground by the twisting of the
harbor bottom during the uphea-
▼al.
The tidal wave that swept the
coast baa plunged the stricken
people into great Terror, and tho
hysterical -cries of the women and
children add to the horror of the
situation.
JAMAICA IS OVERTAKEN
BY A NEW DISASTER
Holland Bay,Jamaica,Jan. IS—Anew

Following the tremendous upheaval
of the ocean bed, the shock of which

Chinamen were driven out and their

The hope of famine relief Ilea in the
banana crop*, which have not been In
jured. Medical assistance la limited,
owing to the deaths of several doctors.
There have been a number of other
shocks since the first disastrous one,
and the repetitions keep the people In
a state of terror.
Kingston was threatened with a rain
storm thl* morning, but at tha hour of
tending out this dispatch the weather
la clearing.
Ftrgusson'a Body Buritd.
The body of Hlr Jam** Fergussoti was
found and burled today. Committees
have been formed and Governor and
Lady Rweetenham and others are doing
able rescue work. The shipping In the
harbor la oaf#. - -
The Hamburg-Ameriran steamer
Prlncesxtn Victoria Louise, which ran
ashore at ths harbor entrance Decem

The topography of the country ha*
been changed and the navigation chan

Two vessels left here yesterday for the
United States loaded to their fullest
rapacity with returning tourists' and
fleeing native*.
Wounded Cared For.
Wounded persons nre being cared for
on all the ships In the harbor. A Ger
man steamship called In here on her
way from Cuba and sailed again after
staying In port one hour.
The lines of the Haiti Cnble Com
pany and the direct West Indian Cable
Company are broken two miles out at
sea. Repairs are being made. The
West tndln nnd Panama line Is work
ing from Holland Bay.
The railroad work shops have been
demolished, but train service haa been
resumed. The offices of the Kingston
city shore, but haa affected the whole
floor of the harbor.
Bodies Tsksn From Ruins.
There Is no longer any doubt that
the disaster at Kingston wilt aqua). If
not aurpass In Its appalling loss of life
the calamities at 8an Francisco and
Valparaiso. There Is po longer ony
doubt that thousands hav* boon killed
and hundreds of bodies are being taken
from the ruins.
Thousands of persons were on the
streets of Kingston when the first
shock came ami great number* of these
were caught by falling walla and
cruahetl to death. Many Atnerftans
have been killed, and. while many bod
ies have been recovered nnd buried,
there Is no doubt many are still In the
ruins.
Volcano I, Active Again.
Kingston has been destroyed and
there le nothing left of the once beau
tiful city but great plies of smoulder
ing ruins. It Is, thought that the
rthquake originated at Anota bay,
where the crater of an extinct vol-
eano la reported to be throwing up
flames und amoke.
Realising the possibility of famine,
the military at once took itossesslon
of the foodaluffa. Detachments of
troops with fixed bayonets were placed
on gttnrd. They were concentrated In
a central position. No one la allowed
to pass through the ruined section of
the city
The Plum Point nnd Port Royal light
houses are both at the bottom of the
harbor.
U. 8. Warships Arriv*.
The American battleships Missouri
and Indiana have arrived In the harbor
and American ofllcers and sailors are
standing by to render assistance.
Many bodies, In a slate of decom
position or charred beyond recognition,
had to be burned. The dangers of
famine anti pestilence nre Increasing.
There Is urgent needs of supplies of
all kinds.
The estimate of damage to property
ranges up to I25.0on.ooo. .Many tour
ists undoubtedly wdre crushed bv the
falling walls In the shopping district.
The ships In the .harbor are crowded
with Injured people. The death list Is
being Increased dally. Corpses lie tn
tho streets or are being thrown Into
trenches. The police estimate tho
number of dead at 3,500.
