Two attempts have been made to poison the water used by the regulars in camp at Mobile. Capt Ballance, United States mus tering' efficer, said he would rush the Kentucky men to the front as soon as equipments are furnished if he has to send one company at a time. It is claimed that no material aid can be given the insurgents in Cuba until at least three bases of supplies are occupied, and then it would require weeks to mobilize the insurgent forces. Volney B.

The Surgeons' Board began the work of examining volunteers at Lexington Tuesday. Of 79 men in Company G, of Covington, 19 failed to pass, and 24 men will have to be recruited to fill the company. The work is now progressing swiftly. The men at Lexington are beginning to complain of their quarters. They say they would prefer the open field to the crowded buildings. Many of them are anxious to go to the front, and the news telling of the change in the plans for the volunteer army to le sent direct to the coast centers is p easant news to them. There may not be a great naval battle at present in Porto Rican waters unless information conveyed to the United States. Government, is erroneous. Instead of the expected naval battle, we arc to have the bombardment of Havana and San Juan and the military occupation of Cuba and Porto Rico sooner than anticipated. e In consequence of this plan for Hate movement against Havana and .San Juan, the orders for mobilizing the' volunteers at Chicamauga have been countermanded, .and the troops ordered to that point will go instead to Tampa Mobile and New Orleans for fcr- - immediate service in tha two islands.

The Navy Department was notified by the naval attache at Londen, that the Spanish fleet which left the (Cape Verde Islands April 29, and for which Admiral Sampson is waiting near Por to Rico, has arrived at Cadiz. The Na vy Department evidently accepts the report as true, and has decided to be gin at once the reduction or San Juan and Havana. The army is moving rapidly to the points of embarkation and will probably be landed in force on C iban soil within a week, when a joint attack by land and sea will at one 3 be made. The attack on Porto Rico is to be simultaneous with that on Cuba. San Juan will be the immediate objective point of Rear Admiral Sampson, who has also instructions to destroy or capture all Spahish ships in Porto Rican waters.

This successful remedy is not one of internal medicines advertised to do unreasonable things, but a scientifically prepared liniment especially effective in adding strength and elasticity to those parts of woman's organism which bear the severest strains of childbirth. The liniment may be used at any and all times during pregnancy up to the very hour of confinement. The earlier it is begun, and the longer used, the more perfect will be the result, but it has been used during the last month only with great benefit and success. It not only shortens labor and lessens the pain attending it but greatly diminishes the danger to life of both mother and child, and leaves the mother in a condition more favorable to speedy recovery.

It is too early to foretell the effect of the war between the United States and Spain on the agricultural and live stock industry. Assistant Secretary of Agriculture Bringhsm can see no material good that can result to the farmer. A prolonged war would doubtless rlse the price of breadstuff $ and pro visions, which indirectly would be to the advantage of the producer, but in that event it is probable that the farm er would be required to pay higher prices for the articles he needs. None but a prophet can foresee the end at this time. It may be pointed out that most of our export cattle and meat trade goes under the British flag, and hence would be expected to suffer no great interruption. Tho American liners which have been chartered by tho United States Government have a carrying capacity for meats equal to about 1,000 cattle per week, but room can probably be found in bottoms flying other flags to take our export stuff.

All the manufactories that amount to anything have signed a willingness to go into it, save the Liggett & Myers Co., of St Louis, and a few other concerns. If that company should enter the combine no doubt all others would. The Liggett & Myers Co- - is being offered every inducement: they have refused ten million dollars cash for their plant, and in addition will stay out of of the monopoly. If this company joins the trust there will no longer be any competition. The terrible monopoly can then say we will give just so much for your tobacco and no more; the farmer will be at its mercy and m:iy have to starve. Furthermore, the monster can say to the consumer everywhere: You pay our price for plug tobacco, smoking tobacco, etc , or do with out and the price will hi knocked It will thus be seen that it is a monopoly that can exert its grinding power in two directions, with most disastrous consequences. At the meeting proposed farmers will, doubtless, pass resolutions warmly endorsing the independent companies for the stand taken, and urging them to stand firm. Resolution calling for legislation to proteet farmers and consummers from such a monopoly will also be passed. 1 he farmere are urged to act next County Court Day and act decisively: The Carrol county people are aroused and are pushing the fight Excursion Lexington to see our troops in Camp.

We wish you would have your paper deny this statement as it does our firm a injustice, for we do only a commission business. Mr. Greene or any member of our firm has not bought or caused to be bought any lambs and we never buy any stock in the country.

The charge was true; for there is : with sin, nothing that so there is nothing so ruinous to every form of established iniquity, there is nothing that has such tendency to turn the. world upside down, as our glorious Christianity.

You say to some one about a merchant. "Is he honest?" "Oh! yes," the man says, "he is honest, but he, grinds- the faces of his clerks. He.is.honest but he exaggerates the value of his goods.

You build a house and you ut into it a rotten beam. A mechanic standing by says: "It will never do to put that beam in; it will ruin your whole building." ISut 3011 put it in. The house is completed.

Says the mechanic: "You put a rotten beam into that strr 2ture. and the whole thing has got to come down." Hero, is an estate that seems to be all right now.

You have an old photograph of the signs on 3our street Why have those signs nearl3 all changed within the last 20 3'cars? Does the passing away of a generation account-foit? Oh, no. Does the fact that there are hundreds of honest men who go down ever3 year account for it? Oh, no. This is the secret: The Lord God has been walking through the commercial streets of our great cities, and He has been adjusting things according to the principles of eternal rectitude. The time will come when, through the revolutionary power of this Gospel, a falsehood, instead of beingealled exaggeration, equivocation and evasion; will be branded a lie! And stealings, that now sometimes go under the head of percentages and commissions, and bonuses, will be put into the catalogue of state prison offenses. Societ3 will be turned inside out and upside down, and ransacked of God's truth, until business dishonesties shall come to an end and all double dealing; and God will overturn, and overturn, and overturn; and commercial men in all cities will throw up their hands, coding out, "These that have turned the world upside down are come hither." The religion of Jesus Christ will produce a revolution in our churches. policy The noncommittal, of the church of God will give waj to a spirit of bravest conquest. Viity in this day seems to me to be salted down just so as to keep. It seems as if the church were chiefl3 anxious to take care of itself; and if we hear of want, and squalor, aqd heathenism outside, we say, "What a pity!" aqd we put our hands in our pockots, and wo feel piece, and with around for a two-cea great flourish wo put it upon the plate, and are amazed that the world is hot converted in six weeks. Supr pose there were a great war: and there were 300.000 soldiers, Jbut of all those 300.000 soldiers, excepting 10 men, were in their tents, or scouring their muskets, or cooking rations. You would say. "Of course defeat must come in that case." It is worse than that in the church. Millions of the professed soldiers of Jesus Christ are ccoking rations, or asleep in their tents, while onl3 one man here and there goes out to do battle for the Lord. "But" says some one. "we are establishing a great many missi ns. and I think they xvill save the masses." No,, they will not do it They are doing a magnificent work, but every mission chapel is a confession of the disease and weakness of , the church. It a dividing line bewaking is tween the classes. It Is saying to the rich aqd to the well conditioned: "If you can pay' your pew rents come to the' main audience room." It is saying to the poor man: "Your coat is too bad and ycur shoes are not good enough. If you want to get to Heaven you;wilI have to go by the way of the mission chapel.' The mission chapel the 'ha,? become thei kitchen,-wherpre hundreds' 'aqd l thousands of churches in thii country gorgeously built 'and. 'supported that 4even,, ton bright and.sunshiny days, are not half full of worshipers, and yet they are building mission chapels, because, by some expressed or implied regulation, the great masses of the people are kept out of the main audience room. Now I &ay that any place of worship which is appropriate for one class is ment saw in some paper an account of a liurcli in Huston in which it is said. there were a great 111:1113 plain people. l'hi! next week the trustees of that hurch came out in the paper au.l said it was not so at fill; "ihey were eu- ant people ami highly conditioned in oile that went there." Then I laughed outright; and when I laugh I "Thos'j people," I laugh very loudly. .aid, "are afraid of the sickly .sentimentality of this churches." Now, my uubitiou is not to preach to 3011 so much. It seems to me that 3011 must be faring sumptuously ever3 ikiy, and the marks of comforts are all about yon. You do not need the Gospel half as much as do some who never come bo liens. uallier tlian priding on a church iii3self in front of which there shall halt 50 splendid equipages on the Sabbath day, would have a church up to whose gates there should conu a long procession of the suffering and the stricken and the (lying begging for admittance.

The talk is, whether Protestant churches or Roman Catholic churches are coming out ahead. I tell 3011, Protestants, this truth plainly: That until 3our churches are as free as tho Roman Catholic cathedrals thev will beat 3ou. In their cathedral the mil lionaire and the beggar kneel side by side. And until that time comes in our churched we can not expect the favor of God, or permanent spiritual prosper itj--. Revolution!
