"We see in the American

'Don't monkey with th lion's

able for the eagarness with
which they invade jurisdiction
in affairs which like the Cuban
war; ate exclusively the affairs

they recognige the belligerency
of the insurgents is crazy and
ridiculous. The important con-
servative interests of the United
States should ndt forget that
that patianbe. of Spain may

Spanish government have given

Cuba to settle a domestic dif

century has abused our patience

Old Soldier Who Tried To

His Falsehood.
San Francisco Ual. Mayg:
--A letter was received today
from W. T. Bryan f this old
BoJdier who recently swore to a
eensatlonal affidavit to the effect
that Ire saw Rev. J. Q. Gibsoo
-a""
pastor of Enianuel Church car
rying the body of a woman up
to the bfclfry bn the date
of the Blanch Lament
murder whicii effectually dis-
poses of that docutbent and
ptoveB the unreliability of the
writer. Although tLis letter
was mailed at Montevista Cal.
four days after Bryant made
liis affidavit he states he never
saw either Gibsou or Dnrrant
to his knowledge but that two
women Hester Hicks and Hen-
rietta BigHQby had offered bim
$5000 to swear that he was in
the church at the time when the
murder was Committed and that
Gibstfn Committed the crime.
Nothing is known of either wo
man.
Is there a tickling In the
throat? Do foti cough a great
deal especially when lying
down? Are you hoarse at
times? Does nearly every cold
you take settle in your throat?
These "throat coughs" are
very deceptive. Don't neglect
1 them. Troches or cough
syrups wont toucn tne spot.
You must take remedies that
will enrich the blood tone up
tfie nerves; and heal the in-
flamed membranes.
scorrs emulsion of
1 Cod-liver Oil with Hypophos-
phits contains sucn remedies.
It has wonderful nourishing
and healing power. The cause
of the cough is removed; the
whole system is givn new life
and vigor; and the danger
from threatening lung trouble
is swept away.

land came in yesterday. Since
the Oxus was here she has
been across the water taken
thirty miles of cable in a big
iron tank in her hold and pro
ceeded to Galveston. She
was employed in the Work of
. . 1 u r.r
repairing the cable. Uown
near Tampica a serious break
was found. The cable is kird
over a rocky shoal which has
caused trouble on several oc
casroTTs. for it Is intended
to lay a cable around the shoal
in order t& aroid trouble ifr fu-
ture. ; "
The saloon of the Oxus con
tains two tables. On- one of
these is-a nmnber of testing
instruments which Mr. H;
Kinesford wlftf will have
charge of the woi of repair
and Mr. .Robert L. McCaivn
manap-er of the Mexican caJble
were getting in shape yester-
day. These instruments are at

hauled in by steam and coiled
in a skeleton tank in the hold
amidships. When the other
tank is errlptied of cable It will
be placed in that. The new
cable will be paid out over
pulleys and drums.
The OxUs will probably
leave today and proceed seven
