The Turkish common- er and officers, with many sol Miers, have surrendered. For the past thirty hours the battle between 1S1ie Montenegrin forces, under di- rect command of King Nicholas, and Turkish troops, strongly •en- trenched in the hills, has been in progress. The fight began at 8 ,o'clock Wednesday morning, the first shot being fired by Prince Pe- ter against the Turkish position on Dunt Planinitza. Within a few ours the Turks evacuated that dis- trict: Strongly fortified position's were occupied by the Turks, how- ever, on Detchitch Mountain, which commands the road to Scutari, and reinforcements were brought up Which resulted in a general en- gagement, which extended along the line for several miles. King Nicholas remained at his Prince Danilo directed operations at the front. The:,I, ontenegrins re- sumed the bombardment o£ Det- chitch at dawn, and a heavy can nonading was kept up until 11 o'clock in the morning, when the Turkish batteries on the mountain were silenced. In the meantime a great battle was proceeding near the Turkish town of Tashi, about fifteen miles to the south of Podgoritza. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon the Turk- ish commander on Detchitoh, with his officers and a majority of his troops, surrendered. The Monte- negrins captured four guns. The Montenegrin standard was hoisted over the captured position. There were heavy losses on both sides, but the Montenegrin camp gave itself over to rejoicings on :the first vic- tory in the war. A division of Montenegrins, com- manded by General Vukotueh, crossed the frontier early Thursday eadgna.rters at Podgoritza while morning, near Berana. ONLY ONE WAY TO CURE RHEUMATISM It Must Be Treated Through the Blood and the Fo sonous Aoid Driven Out. The twinges and tortures of rhea- matism are not due to cold, dam weathei, as so many persons su pose. Rheumatism comes fro poisonous acid in the blood. Th is a medical truth which every su ferer should realize. There is only one way to cure rheumatism—i must be treated through the blood All the liniments and rubbing an so-called electric treatment in th world will not cure rheumatism and the sufferer who tries them i not only wasting money, but is al lowing the trouble to become mor i deep -rot ted in the system and hard er to cure when the proper remedy is tried. Dr. Williams' --Pink ?ills ,alwa s cure rbeuinatisin became right „Lo- the:'moot of „lam to 'in the ascots. •1 ht se .I4 lee the nate, rich blond of thea1rth, nerin this way drive out the pois- onous• acid which causes rheuma- tism. Thousands of instances of cures might bo given, among which 410 the following one. Mrs. G. R. Dulmage, Cherry Valley, Ont., lays : I was attacked with rheu- matism which gradually grew worse until I was confined to my bed. For about two weeks 1 had to be shifted and turned in bed as I was utterly unable to help myself. I was under the doctor's care and .. so far recovered that I was able to get"1ip' ' and move about, but the trouble still remained in my sys- tem. If I put my hands in cold water, or if I went out in the even- ing er in damp weather the trou- ble would return, and for four •,years I thus suffered from rheuma- tism, until I began to think it could not be driven from nay system. Fin- ally I gave up all other medicine and began to use Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and after using them for couple of months I was complete - cured and have not had a e e rheumatism since. 1 can recom- mend the Pills to anyone suffering flora this'trouble." ae Pills are sold by all medi- cine dealers or by inaii at 50 cents 'box or six boxes for $2.50 from he Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., rookville, Ont. p .P- is t d e s e Austro -Hungary is making exten- ve warlike preparations that point possible international rupture er the Balkan situation.

A despatch from Montreal says: A rather remarkable feat has just been performed at the Royal Vic- toria Hospital.

"Death would inevitab- ly have ensued at once had it not been for the extraordinary skill of the surgeons, who kept the man alive with his heart beating norm- ally until he died at 9 o'clock in the evening. FATALITY AT RAISING BEE. Mian Killed Instantly by falling .Timbers of New bank. A despatch from Russell, Ont., says: During the progress of a "raising bee” in the village here on Saturday, when the curved wooden sets of a rink, which is be- ing built by citizens, were being put in position, a violent windstorm came up and carried the heavy framework with a crash to the ground. Some two dozen men who were engaged in the work were were caught in the falling timbers, ohn W. Low, aged fifty-five, one of them, being killed instantly. Many others had miraculous es - apes from serious injury. John Oster was run over by a passing orse which had become frightened y the crash as he dashed out from ie ruins of the building. Wm.
