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 W, C. Hamrick & Co., of Shelby, N. C. Trial bottles free at W. E. Saun¬ ders’ drug store. Regular size 50f and $1.

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. YELLOW JAUNDICE CUBED. Suffering humanity should he sup¬ plied with every means possible for its relief. It is with pleasure we publish the following: “This is to certify that I was a terrible sufferer from yellow jaundice for over six months, and was treated by some of the best physicians in our city and all to no avail.

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.
