Havana, Feb. IC.At 0:45 Tuesday
evenintj a terrible explosiou took pluc-e
on board the United State cruiser
Muiue in Havana harbor. Many were
killed of wounded. All of the boats of
the Spanish cruiser Alfonso XI I. are as
kiktlnp. As yet the cause of the explosion la
not apparent. The wounded sallers of
the Maine are unable to explain it. It
is believed that the cruiser is totally de
stroyed. Tlie explosion shook the whole city.
The windows were broken in all the
houses.
A correspondent soys he has con
versed with several of the wounded
sailors anel unelerstnnds from them that
the explosion took place while they
were asleep, so that they can pive no
particulars as to the cause.
The wildest elemeinstration prevails
In Havana. The w harves are croweled
with thousands of people. It Is believed
the explosion occurred in n small pow
der mapazine. At midnipht what re
mains of the Maine is still burning,
eiver tem Killed.
Capt. Sipsbee anel the other ofiicera
have been saveel. It is estimated that
over 100 of the crew were killed, but It is
impossible as yet to give exact details.
Admiral Manteiola has orJereel that
boats of all kinds should go to the as
sistance of the Maine and her wounded.
The Havana firemen nre giving aid,
tending carefully to the wounded as
they are hroupht on shore.
It Is a terrible sight, den. Solano
and the other generals have been er-dere-el
by ("apt. Cen. Illanco to take
ste-ps to help the Maine's crew in every
way peissible. The ceirrespeinelent eif
the Associateel Press has been near the
Maine in eme eif the boats of the cruiser
Alfonso X 1 1. and se-en others of the
wounelcel whe corroborate the state
inentof theise first interviewed that they
were olreaely asleep when ti e explo
sion occurred.

No explanation of the cxploslem has
been obtainable up tei this time. It is
assume-d that eine eif the ship's maga
zines blew up en- bombs were placed beside-
her and set eifT by Spaniarels.
The excitement is sei intense that the
military authoritie-s have eirelercd
troops to quarters, and the streets tire
fille-d with crowds of exciteel citizens
and soldiers jeistling each either.
At this hour (twei a. in.) the hull of
the Maine is burning nnel the flames
iKtiminate the entire harbeir. Thou
sands have gathered at the water fremt
tei witness the unusual spe-ctacle.
It Is clear to theise em shore that the
vessel is sinking and will seion be at
the beitteun of the bay. The whede city
seems on the verge eif n panic.
Capt. Sipsbe-e says the expleision ee
currcd in the bow eif t he vessel. Hp re
ceived a wound In the head. Orders
were given to the other eifTieers te save
themse-lves as be-st they could. The lat

hardest to hear is what they say about us.
Why, a lady can't come up here and ask to
see a member that there aren't half a dozen
feople to wink and shake the head and a
ot more of the same to initke him wish all
tht women were in hades. Of course, there
is some ground among us for remarks, just
as there is among preachers and doctors
and hod carriers and everybody else human,
and I know a woman or two who find their
chief delight in trying to involve congress
men and other ollicials in any kind of a flir
tation that corners handy. Ihey are pretty
and persuasive, and before a man knows
w hat he is about he is down in the senate
restaurant paying for a lunch and listening
to some kind of a tale of woe.
"(Jut they iiiUs it now and then, and I
am glad to note an instauce which occurred
only a day or to ago. A member from a
northern state had been invited to call at the
lady's hotel the next day and she had asked
him to let her know if he could come, lie
wrote saying anions other things: "To
morrow, madam. 1 hope to see Hie loveliest
woman in the whole world.' Naturally she
wss pleasrel anel toM all the people around
the hotel about it. The next eiy he did not
appnr, and the next she saw hitn at the
capitol and asked him what he meant by
treating her so.
" 'What did I do!' he asked, innocently.
" "You said you were coming to see me,'
she said, blushing at theirenietabrance of his
WoreU.
I think not.'
"'Indeed, vou did.' the insisted. 'Yea
atd you would see the loveliest woman ia
the world and she bin-died apain.
" 'Oil, I beg your pa relon,' he said, smiling,
'I meant my wife. She jut arrived yester
day.' "Washington Star.
fl Benefactress' Kind Act
From the Evening News, Detroit, Mich.
Mr. John Taney, of 130 Itaker Street,
Detroit, Michigan, is one of thoee women
who always know just what to do in all
trouble and sickness. One that is a mother
to those in distress. To a reporter she said:
"1 am the mother of ten cUldren and have
raised eight of them. Several years ago
we had a serious time with my elaughter,
which began when 6he was about sixteen
years old. She did not have any serious ill
nesn, hut seemed to gradually waste away.
Having never had consumption in our fam
ily, as we come of gonl edd Irish and Scotch
stock, we diel not think it was that. Our
eloetor called the disease by an old name
which, 1 afterward learned, meant lack of
blood.
"It is impossible to describe the feeling
John and I had as wc noticed our daughter
slowly passing away from us. We finally
found, however, a medicine that seemed to
I
Mi
help her, anel from the first we noticed a
deeulcd change for the better, and after
three months' treatment her health was so
greatly unproved you would not Imvo re-cog-nied
her. She gained in flesh rapidly and
was soon in pi-rl'e-ct health. The medieine
used was Dr. Williams' l'mk Fills for Pale
People. 1 have always kept these pills in the
house sinee and have recomruende d them tei
many pcep!e. 1 have told mothers about
them and they havccllettod some wonderful
cures.
"Kvery mother in this land should keep
these phis in the liousr, ns they nre good for
many ailments, particularly 'those arising
from impoverished or diseased blood, ana
weakened nerve force."
