Mr. Paul Jack,the wide-awake
young newspaper man who took
charge of The Hustler-Commer
cial's circulation last week, tells
me that hehasadoed nearly two
hundred subscribers, and they
come "just as easy, Mr. Jack
knows his business , and has
never failed to do splendid work
on circulation. He is immense
ly pleased with the big bonanza
he is now working.

And “The Rome Courier,”
the weekly of The Hustler-Com
mercial, is growing more rapid
ly now than any weekly’ ever
grew. The planters of Floyd
county want the news while it's
hot and want the facts in poli
tics—hence the phenomenal in
crease in the Weekly Courier’s
circulation.

News comes today that Samp
son has destroyed the Cape
Verde Heet. If this be true and
Spain declares war on McGinty
she will indeed be able to send
a most powerful submarine fleet
against Davy Jones’ gardener.

If Sampson has done the
Dewey act, Would it not be well
for I ncle Sam to call off his
water-dogs-of-war. I suggest

Everyhtng.
Washington, May 24.—A spe
cial just received from Loudon,
states that a terrific naval battle
has taken place in the Windward
passage, and that Sampson has
either captured or destroyed lhe
Spanish fleet. Up to 3 :50 p. m.
this report lacks official confirm
ation and some doubt is ex
pressed as toils authenticity.
Another report coming from
Manila, via, Shanghia, is to tho
effect that the German consul at
Manila attempted to force pas
sage of food supplies into Ma
nila. Dewey threatened to fire
upon the ships and the attempt
was not made.
Key West, May 24.—A terri
ble submarine eqplosion is re
ported from Yucatan channel,
throwing men to the decks of
vessels. An earthquake is the
supposed cause.

One Large Scar
Is All That RmaLis of Great
Scrofula Sores
Neighbors Could Not Lear to Look
Upon Her—A Grand, Complete
Cure by Hood’s Sarsaparilla
After Others Failed.
‘•I was taken with neuralgia in my
head and eyes. Not long after this, a
scrofula sore appeared on my left cheek,
extending from my upper lip to my eye.
Other sores came on my neck and on my
right arm and one of my limbs. They
were very troublesome and painful and
soon became great running sores. My
face looked so bad that some of my
neighbors could not bear to look at me
and advised me to wear a bandage, but I
feared this would irritate the sore and
make it worse. So I
Could Not Hido tho Sores.
My niece, v ho was familiar with a case
jimili.. to i.j.ne, which had been cured by
’’ -od’s Sarsaparilla, urged me to try it.
Finally I was persuaded to do so, and in
a short tir-i I saw it was helping me.
lhe s. i I ;an to heal and the neu
ralgia in my head was better. In a few
montlio tuc lores on my arms and limbs
all healed; those on my neck gradually
disappeared and now they are all gone.
I have never had any symptom of scrofula
since. One large scar on my right arm is
all the sign that remains of my terrible
affliction. The neuralgia is also cured.”
