STORM ON CUBAN COAST
Hurrican Sweeps East Coast of Cuba
and it is Feared That 2,000 Lives
Have Been Lost
Miami, Fla, Belated reports from the
tropical storm which swept Cuba and
the coast of Florida indicate that it
was one of the most appalling since
the Galveston disaster. The losses
of both life and property may surpass
that cataclysm.
A tidal wave accompanied the cy
clone. This increased the sea horrors.
It is estimated that upwards of 500
people were killed or lost at sea along
the Florida coast alone.
Hundreds of workmen employed on
barges which sunk were nearly all
lost.
The steamer St. Lucie, crushed by
a tidal wave, went down with 100
passengers off the Florida coast near
Miami. -
About 250 lives at Elliot's key were
blotted out and the island was en
gulfed by a great tidal wave.
The entire fishing fleet, with its
scores of men, off the coast at St.
Augustine has disappeared.
Scores of deaths are being reported
from points in the interior of the
peninsula.
There were hundreds of vessels in
the gulf and in the harbor of Havana
it is know that many of the vessels
were dashed to pieces on the' rocks.
Others were overturned. Many ves
sels were swept to sea and may be
heard from later.
It is estimated that over 100 were
killed in Cuba. This estimate is in
dependent of the sea losses.
Jacksonville, Fla. Five hundred
lives lost in the storm is the very
latest estimate given out today. As
communication is being restored re
ports of the disaster come in from
places heretofore unheard from.
There are grounds for the belief
that the worst news is yet to come.
The property loss is one million
dollars.
Havana The steamer Elvira was
caught outside the harbor by the hur
ricane and capsized. Five men are
reported lost. It is feared that many
other coasting vessels were lost.
According to the most 'reliable ac
counts, the list of dead and fatally
injured in Havana is between thirty
and forty, and the total casualties on
the island will exceed 100 dead and
500 injured.
The latest figures are that the loss
to the park and boulevard systems
alone is a million dollars. The total
damage may exceed three million
dollars.
Harry Fosdick, a teamster with the
Twenty-eighth infantry, was crushed
by a falling palm tree. He may die.
It is rumored that one or two Amer
ican civilians are among the dead.
Troops are co-operating with the
police to establish order.
A NATION'S PLUNDER
In announcing the consummation of
a deal whereby trie steel trust is given
possession of the iron lands on the
Mesaba range controlled by the Great
Northern railway, the Northern Pacific
railway, James J. Hill and J. W. Long
year, E. H. Gary, chairman of the steel
corporation's board of directors, states
that "the price to be paid is $1.65 a
ton, delivered at the upper lake docks,
with an increase of 3.4 per ton each
succeeding year. The minimum of ore
agreed to be mined is 750,000 tons for
the year 1907, increased by 750,000

SURGICAL
OPERATIONS
AVOIDED.
MRS. AIMMA MUNDEIM
There can be no doubt about it that
the tendency to resort to surgical opera
tions has been too great in the past and
that this harmful tendency is growing
less every day.
Experience has demonstrated that
many ailments which seemed to require
surgical operations in the past are now
being enred by the
use of harmless rem
edies. Peruna has
done as much as any
other remedy to es
tablish this very important fact.
Thousands of people have been con
demned to undergo eurgical operations
Their physicians have told them that
they must either submit to such opera
tions or lose their lives.
After this they have resorted to
Peruna and found relief.
Other good remedies have accom
plished the same result, but it is safe to
assume that no other remedy has
equaled Peruna in its beneficent work.
Many of the alleged incurable de
rangements of the pelvis are dependent
upon catarrh.
There is no cure for these except the
removal of the catarrh.
Peruna seemingly works miracles in
some of these cases. The explanation,
however, is very simple. Peruna re
moves the catarrh and Nature does the
rest,
Suffered Thirteen Years With
Pelvic Troubles, Unable
to find Relief.
AN CPERATI0IM ADVOCATED.
Pe ru na, Taken as a Last
Resort, Brings Health
and Strength.
ANNA MUNDEN, Brinkley, Ark.,
writes:
" suffered with female troubles for
thirteen years, and tried the best doc
tors in Louisville, Ky., without relief.
"I spent thousands of dollars at the
Springs.
"The doctors desired that I have an
operation performed to remove my
ovaries, which I would not consent to.
"I saw an advertisement of your
Peruna and bought one bottle and be
fore I had taken it all I could get out of
bed and walk about.
"After taking three bottles I was as
well and hearty as ever.
"I gained in flesh. From 118 1 in
creased to 186 pounds.
"If it had not been for your great and
wonderful medicine, I would now be in
my grave.
' would advise all women sufferers
to try It
"I would not be without it for the
world."
A WOMAN'S LETTER TO WOMEN.
Mrs. Caroline Kramer, Fort Collins,
Col., writes:
'The majority of women who are suf
fering from disordered periods and
other troubles, have such strong faith
in doctors that they allow them to ex
periment on them for kidney, liver, or
stomach troubles, until they become
discouraged and their money is gone.
"This was my unfortunate experience
for nearly two years, when my atten
tion was called to Peruna.
"I hardly dared believe that at last I
had found the right medicine, but as I
kept on using it and was finally cured
I could only thank God and take cour
age. "I have had most satisfying results
from the use of your c---s
raedicind and have SATISFACTORY

tons each year until it reaches 8,250,
000 tons. Thereafter it continues on
that basis."
The amount of ore involved is esti
mated by Mr. Gary at 750,000,000 tons.
At the lowest estimate he places it at
700,000,000 tons. At the royalty to
be paid, the owners of these iron
lands will derive over a billion dol
lars for the right of mining the iron
that they contain. And none of this
wealth has been created by them.
They merely have gotten title to it
through the stupidity of the people
combined with the craft and corrup
tion of their public servants.
If the public's interest had been con
sulted the billion dollars that is to be
paid Into the pockets of Mr. Hill and
his associates would go to the public.
Not only is the public deprived of this
princely revenue to which in justice It
is entitled, but it must proceed to pay
into the pockets of the men that have
grabbed the Mesaba iron range the
billion and more of money that the
steel trust will collect and hand over
to them.
It was only a few years ago that
the Mesaba iron ranere Delonged to
the public domain. The lands have
been frittered away and stolen. It is
a shameful record the public stripped
through its fatuity and the craft of
private interests and the lack of pub
lic spirit and breadth of view of
American statesmen. It is part and
parcel of a civilization that is based
upon what Rockefeller is pleased to
term "opportunity" opportunity for
the crafty and greedy to exploit and
plunder the many.
And yet there are those that won
der that there is discontent in the
United States and a rising wave of
social unrest and radicalism. Would
they marvel if an Attila or a Ghazan
Khan should have descended upon the
United States and through force have
stripped the American people of the
things which cunning and greed have
possessed themselves of through the
operation of law and privilege? Dis
content! The wonder is that there ia
so little of it that there is only grumb
ling. Milwaukee News.
