ARLINGTON, GA., FRIDAY, APRIL 15, 1898.
Genera! Lee Comes home.
Kky West, Fla., April 10.—“Tell
the Olivette to got under way at
oneo, Capt. Cowles; signal the Baclie
that the United States fleet is ready
to clear out of Havana, at once, and
please follow the Baclie out.”
These were the words of Consul
General Lee at 5:15 Saturday after¬
noon as ho stood on the poop of the
Fern wiih a group of correspondents
around him. It was evident to all
that Gen. Lee intended to ho the last
to leave, and a murmur of applause
went around in support of his inten¬
tion . The Evelyn had already passed
Morro Castle when the Olivette
weighed anchor. The Baeho was
close behind and the Fern was the
last of the line. The wharves and
the boats on both sides of the narrow
entrance to the harbor were crowded
with Spaniards, who hissed and
jeered as ouch boat passed out.
As the Fern rounded to, heading
for the open sea, she passed near the
Maine wreck. The group on deck
had been laughing and talking, ex¬
pressing th eir satisfaction at lea ving
Havana. With one accord each
man doffed his hat in salute to the
brave dead, while silence fell on all
for the space of several minutes.
General Lee being on the Fern
made that boat a target for redou¬
bled hisses, groans, cat-calls and
wiistles from the crowds on shore.
*“Get out, Yankee swine,” was
among the mildest expressions used.
This seemed to strike every one on
board as ludicrous. Vico Consul
Springer, who had been on the isla nd
thirty years, waved his hand to a.
particularly abusive group, saying
in tones loud enough for all to hear :
“Wait, wait, my friends, we shall
all be back soon.”
There was one pretty incident.
On the Cabanas shore a British
steamer was unloading at her wharf.
As the Fern passed the union jack
was dipped, while the English crew
gave a hearty cheer. It is needless
to say that the compliment was re¬
turned with all possible dazed gusto. the
Havana seemed when
people found that General Leo was
really going and that all the Amer¬
icans were going with him.
DISCOVERED BY A WOMAN.
Another great discovery has been
made, and that, too, by a lady in
this country. 1 ‘Disease fastened its
clutches upon her and for seven
years she withstood its severest tests,
hut her vital organs were under¬
mined and death seemed imminent.
For three months she coughed in¬
cessantly, and could not sleep. She
finally discovered a way to recovery
by purchasing of us a bottle of Dr.
Kings New Discovery for Consump¬
tion, and was so much relieved on
taking first dose that she slept all
hight; and, with two bottles, has
been absolutely cured. Her name is
Mrs. Luther Lutz.” Thus writes

C. Trial bottles free at W. E. Saun¬
ders’ drug store. Regular size 50f

I was reading an advertisement
of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy in the Worcester
Enterprise recently, which leads me
to write this. I can truthfully say
I never used any remedy equal to it
for colic and diarrhoea. I have
never had to use more than one or
two doses to cure the worst case
with myself or children.—W. A.

Something About Our Schools.
From the Morgan Monitor.
In looking around for items of
news, we accidentally stumbled in
the school commissioner's offloo the
other day, and, while ho was quite
busy with his school work, he grant¬
ed us the privilege of school looking over
the reports of the census
enumerators, which has been com¬
pleted and approved as correct by
the Board of Education. From the
reports we cull the following :
First district—Children of school
ago: males 053, females 004. There
are I t schools in the district.
Second district—Children of school
age: males 430, females 629. There
are 10 schools in this district.
Third district—Children of school
age: males 106, females 194. There
are 8 schools in this district.
Only one deaf and dumb person
and only two idiots were found in
the county.
There are thirteen white and nine¬
teen colored schools in the county.
It. cost $90 to complete the census.
The school houses in the towns in
the county are worth $7,086, and
$1,475 in the county outside of the
towns, making t he fatal valuation of
the school buildings in the county
$8,500. The school supplies, includ¬
ing charts, desks, etc., are worth
$570.
It takes about $3,850 to pay the
teachers and the commissioner for
their first quarter's services; or,
rather, that is the amount earned by
them during the first quarter.

Suffering humanity should he sup¬

Zoologists say that all known spe¬

One of Two Ways.
The bladder was created for one
purpose, namely, a receptable liable for
the urine, and as such it is not
to any form of disease except by one
of two waps. The first way is from
imperfect action of the kidneys.
Tlic second way is from careless lo¬
cal treatment of other diseases.
cmKF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
trouble. 8o the womb, like the
bladder, was created for one pur¬
pose, and if not doctored too much
is not liable to weakness or disease,
except in rare cases. It is situated
back of and very close to tho blad¬
der, therefore any pain, disease or
inconvenience manifested in the
kidneys, back, bladder or urinary
passages is often, by mistake, attrib-
uated to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort. The error is
easily made and may he as easily
avoided. To find out correctly set
your urine aside for twenty-four
hours; a sediment or settling indi¬
cates kidney or bladder trouble.
The mild and the extraordinary ef¬
fect of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp Root,
the great kidney and bladder reme¬
dy, is soon realized. If you need a
mediejne you should have the best.
At druggists fifty cents and one dol¬
lar. You may have a sample bottle
and pamphlet, both sent free by
mail, upon receipt of three 2-cent
to cover the cost of postage on tho
bottle. Mention Calhoun County
