Everybody needs a strengthening , purifying tonio
just at this season of the year , when the demands of
nature in renovating the system are so severe that a
breakdown is the result with most people. Impurities
that have been accumulating all winter must now begotten
gotten rid of , as Spring is the time set apart by nature
for a general "houso-cleaning" within. It is necessary
that this cleansing process take place iu order to
strengthen the system and prepare it for the trying sea
son of hot weather , when sickness is so abundant. This
task can not bo accomplished without the assistance of
a cleansing , health-renewing medicine , and for this
purpose Swift's Specific , S. S. S. , stands out alone , with
out an equal. It purifies the blood , improves the ap
petite , builds up and strengthens , gives a ruddy ,
healthy complexion , removing all pimples and blotches ,
and so tones up and invigorates as to impart new lifo
and energy to the entire system.
Within the pnat few years I began to fail in health end
could attribute it to nothing in particular until I realized
that my blood wns impoverished. A few bottles of 8. 8. S.
built mo up wonderfully , increased my weight and gave mo
a splendid appetite. It It the best tonio and blood purifier
made. W. M. BDOKUN ,
Lake Charles , La.
I take pleasure in recommending Swift's Specific as a
Blood Purifier. A few bottles cured me of a blood trouble
after all other remedies hod failed. It also removed pim
ples and blotches from my face , leaving the skin clear and
smooth. While taking 8. S. 8. my appetite increased and
my general health Improved. Its effects as a tonio are un-
equoled. , W.M.WILSON ,
Fairfield , 111.
Six bottlog of Swift's Specific cured me of a horrible at-
tack. of Boils that had broke out all over my body , and from
which I could get no relief. I fool that if it was not for
your great medicine I would have been an invalid.
' W. J.
It takes but a moment's thought to show-why S. S. S
la the best tonio and system-builder. Mercury and iodide
of potash , arsenic and sulphur , the most harmful of min
erals , are the basis of every blood remedy except S. S. S.
Those drugs , as every chemist knows , tear down and
impoverish the system. Swift's Specific is guaranteed
purely vegetable ; every ingredient or which it is made
IB gathered from nature's forests.

CONDITIONS AT SAN JUAN'
No One Killed in the Town During the
Bombardment by the Fleot.
CONFLICTING STORIES OF CASUALTIES
ji fin a Stvimicr JuHt Ar
rived from There HtMiort Two
Mourn More Would Ilnvc
Forced n Surrender.
NEW YORK , May 21. Captain Lloyd of
the steamer Arcadia , which has just ar
rived here from San Juan , Porto Rico , says
ho and the ship's steward were the only ones
who went ashore during the steamer's three
hours' stay at the bombarded port.
"From what I learned twenty men were
killed by American guns , " said Captain
Lloyd. Of these , six were mowed down at
the guns , and the others wore laid out by
bursting shells In the defenses. No one
was hurt in the town. About sixty were In
jured In all In the forts.
"Tho agent of thn line , a naturalized
American citizen , took me around the town.
A shell from the American fleet had struck
the fourth story of the Hotel , Inglctlcrra , .
knocked off the whole roof , and diove the j
guests , men and women , Into the streets In j
their night clothes at 5:15 : a. m.
, "Flying over the forts a good many shells
IJ had fallen into the flat lands , striking
bouses , some of which are now propped up
to keep from tumbling. I saw a storehouse
that had been riddled by an American shell ,
which had punctured the roof , bored Its
way through the lumber stored In the build
ing , penetrated the office , and emerging
through a rear door , had knocked a hole In
the hull of n Spanish merchant steamer ,
the Manuclla.
"Tho Spanish custom house Inspector told
mo his father , a soldier , had.been Killed
while asleep In his bed by one of the first
shots. Below the fortifications He many
shells , some of them still uncxplodcd. The
Spaniards are picking them up and treasur
ing them for mementoes. ,
" 'Tho present the Yankees sent us , ' they
tell their friends.
"If a man can speak only so much Eng
lish as 'yes' or 'no' his life Is now In peril
iIn San Juan.
"Secretary Belt of the English consulate
told me there la much discussion among the
consular officials at San Juan as to whether
the bombardment will stand the test of In
ternational law , as no notice was given. "
Among the passengers were A. V. Drake ,
for three years secretary to M. Vadrcnc ,
United States consular agent at Mayaguez ;
William Cantrell , an Englishman , and Nlc-
olal Megwlnoff , a native of Russia and nn
American citizen. Mr. Drake was the last
native-born American to leave the Ibland
of Porto Rico. Mr. Drake said :
"Tho agent from whom I learned of the
bombardment lived outside the city , but
awakened by the heavy cannonading ho getup I
up and watched the engagement from a safe j I
distance. Ono vessel , which he said ho be- j
llcved was the Iowa , left the fleet and , ac
companied by a small boat , steamed fairly
under Morro's guns. It stationed the small
boat , and going slowly around It let lly Its
shells at every revolution.
"This was actually fo close that the guns
on the fortifications ronld not be trained
on the war ship and volleys of musketry i
were showered upon It. Goon the fleet was
enveloped In such a bank of smoke that ,
Morro's guns must have been absolutely j
helpless. Under cover of the smolcc the
daring vessel joined the fleet ngaln.
"Another daring war ship was believed
to bo the monitor Terror. It , too , came j
within easy range of the shore guus and j
every shot from it seemed to have taken
effect. Once when the seas were breaking
over It the gunners of Morro , unused to Its
type , cried In glee 'See , wo have sunk her. ' i
"According to Spanish reports there were i
eleven vessels In the bombarding and the
most serious damage was tbo dismounting I
of ono gun and the killing of ono of the
gunners. Conflicting stories of thu number
killed In San Juan were current. U was
reported soon after the fleet had retired that
Elxty bad met death , but later reports put '
the number at six , These , six , U was said , I
were the men at the guns. j
"Several shells struck the town , but I have
not been able to learn that any persons were
killed by them. Another shell went through
n large warehouse on a dock , shattering n
timber pile and | oilns ) ; In the side platea
of the Spanish mall steamship Manuclla. U
nearly sunk It. It ueomed too bad that the
American fleet did uot continue tbo bom-
1 bardmcnt ! until nil the fortifications were
demolished. The pilot who boarded us off
Sandy Hook said that the fleet had gone to
San Juan to engage the Spanish fleet , and
his statement goes to explain several In *
cldents of the attack. '
"A quantity of small shots were fired In
the harbor to draw out. ns I now understand ,
any Spanish war ships that might have been
there. Although there were In San Juan
at the time the cruisers Isabel II and Al
fonso XIII , and the gunboat Condio , not one
of them took nny part In the engagement.
After It was all over the Alfonso XIII put
to sea to give chase to the American liner
Paris , as was learned afterwords. It re
turned In three hours alone. We saw the
same liner fifteen miles away oft Farardu
Friday morning. It was cruising to thb
southeast.
"There was much surprise In San Juan j j.'J
when the Alfonso returned. If the war ships > I
had ! continued their nttack two hours longer
the town would have surrendered.
"The authorities , both naval and military ,
were unable to learn how much damage hail
resulted to the Americanships , but It was jj
generally believed In San Juan that the A
licet ; had been compelled to withdraw under ; !
the \ fire from the fortifications. There was '
much disappointment , too , that the Spanish !
fleet had not arrived to protect , the towji. IJ
The war ships had been looked for every day vl
for : two weeks preceding the bombardment
and i there were several British ships unloadIng -
Ing coal for the fleet when wo were at San
Juan. ,
"Tho guns which wo saw on the fortifica
tions on entering the harbor seemed to beef
of ancient design , and I am told that what
modern guns the American fleet left are not
in fighting order. Several Krupp gun ! )
which were landed at San Juan n year agp
were not removed from the wharf until a
couple of weeks ago.
"Under Spanish sovereignty affairs In jj
Porto Rico are anything but prosperous. | |
There Is no money In circulation and thuro
have been many failures in the last two
years. There is a strong feeling among
the business men of the Island In favor of
self-rule , under a protectorate , or anything
that will end Spanish-rule. The Inhabitants
are densely Ignorant , the great majority
being unable to read or write.
"Subscriptions are being sought all over
the Island for carrying on the war. Thpro
are 5,000 regular troops and about 8,000
volunteers In Porto Rico. They are nrmeil
with Remington rifles. The civil guard , 300
strong and mounted , have great power. The
volunteers could bo put to shame BO far n <
discipline nnd drill arc concerned by t'ho
Qchool cadets of this country. The mili
tary authorities bought largo quantities of
food when war was Imminent , and It la
supposed they have enough for three month )
rations for the troops. The othem have
to pay double now for their provisions. "
Mr. DraKe left the Island from Mayagues
May 7 , on warning from the British consul
at San Juan. There had been no hostile
demonstrations against him up to tl.c tlmo
of leaving , although the consular ngcnt at
Mayaguez had been threatened frequently.
Three times were mobs dispersed by the
authorities ns they were preparing to attack
his house. Slnro April 21 , when It was
learned that war had begun , the affairs of
the consulate bad been looked after by the
British consul at Mayaguez.
Mr. Cantrell , another of the Arradla's pas
sengers , was the chief electrician for nn
electric light company In Ponce. He said"
the authorities there took all the wire from
the works to mine the harbor and then
seized nil the coal. Because ho spoke
English he was taken for an American. At
Farjado , where ho went ashore with Mr.
Megwlnoff , ho was nearly mobbed and waa
forced to take refuge In a warehouse ,
Regarding the bombardment , Mr. Cantrell
said that one of the shells from an Ameri
can gun entered the mouth of a gun on
the fortifications , smashing It Into plcrcs nnd
killing a man at thn breech. Ono corner of
Morro had been knocked off and six-Inch
shells could bo seen embedded In thu forti
fications. The Spanish steamer Paullmi , ho
learned , was chased by an American war
ship four days before the bombardment and
when being overhauled displayed tbn French
color * . At San Juan ho Icarnml that a
Porto Rlcan had been put to death on tlio
charge of leading a revolution , and another
had been Imprisoned for life on the e&mo
charge.
Porto Itfcan papers , Mr. Cantrell said , con
tained thn most ridiculous statements of
'Spanish valor and success In the unr , Ono
paper said the Brooklyn bridge had been
blown up by n torpedo boat , while another
declared that two American war ships had
been captured and thirty-two men made
prisoners.
