that some of our sportsmen are keep

DEB ILITATED,

Whose sufferiDgs hove been protract-
ed from hidden causes, and whose
cases require prompt treatment to
render existence desirable. Do you
feel weak, debilitated, easily tired?
Does little extra exertion produce
palpitation of the heart? Does your
liver, or urinary organs, or your kid
neys, frequently get out of order? Do
you have spells of short breathing or
dyspepsia? Are your bowels cousti-
pated? Do you have spells Of faint
ing, or rushes of blood to the head?
Is your memory impaired? Is your
mind constantly dwelling upon this
subject? Do you feel dull, listless,
moping, tired of company, Of
life? Do you wish to be left
alone, to get away from every
body ? Does any little thing
make you start or jump? Is your
sleep broken or restless? Is the lus-
ire of your eye as brillianl the bloom
of your cheek as bright2 Do you en-
joy yourself in society as well2 Do
you pursue your business with the
same energy? Do you feel as much
confidence in yourself? Are your
spirits dull and tagging, given to fits
of melancholy IF so, do not lay it
to your liver or dyspepsia. Have you
restless nights? Your back weak.
your knees weak, and have but little
appetite, and you attribute this 10
dyspepsia or liver complaint?
How many men, from badly cured
diseases, from the effects of self-abuse
and excuses, have brought about that
state of weakness in those organs that
has reduced the general system so
much as to induce almost every other
disease-idiocy, lunacy, paralysis spi-
nal affections, suicide, and almost
every other form of disease which
humanity is heir TO, and the real
cause of the trouble scarcely ever
suspected, and have doctored for all
but the right one?
Diseases of those organs require the
use of a oiuretic. HELMBOLD'S

great diuretic. and is certain cure
for diseases of the Bladder. Kidneys,
Gravel. Dropsy, Organic Weakness,
Female Complaints, General Debility,

FIGHTING FOR THE FLAG. = Two
Democrats, living at the Cross Roads,
near Yankeetown, Warrick County,
had a flag on pole which was COM
mon property. One o! them is a
small German, and aside from his
politics is a respectable and esteemed
citizen and an honest man. The
other is a genuine Democrat, pos
sessed of the peculiar characteristics
of that delectable party. To the first
named was committed the especial
custody of the flag. The other be-
came jealous of his neighbours pre-
ferment. and demanded the custody
of the flag. He was persistent, and
at length became imperious aud i'm
perative, when the small man losing
his patience and his temper at the
same time, slit into " the bully and
gave him right neat drubbing. He
retains the. custody of the Anderson
County Democratic flag. He is rep
resented as by far too decent and
honest a man to belong to the Demo-
cratic party, and from what we can
learn we would not be surprised if he
leaves that party in disgust even be-
fore the State election.

Flag Present AtiOn Last Night:
PLEASANT AFFAIR.
Rousing Speech by Colonel 4. W.
Thompson.

Notwithstanding the exceeding in
element weather. there was a fair
audience at Turner Hall last night, it
being the occasion of the presentation
of the prize flag to the Republicans of
the Seventh Ward, and the speaking
by Colonel r. w. Thompson, of
Terre Haute. AT the hour fixed, ex-
Mayor Baker. on the part of the Re-
publican Central Committee for Van
derburgh County, said:
8 FELLOW CITIZENS: It was de-
eided before the. last demonstration
to give to the Ward turning out IN
the procession the greatest number OF
voters, flag. The Seventh Ward,
having fairly won the flag, is entitled
to il until won by some other Ward.
and the Seventh Ward IS hereby
designated the Banner Ward. We
are gratifed to present this Dag to
you"
The flag was then handed to Mr.. P.
G. Eberwine, who, on the part of the
Republicans of the Seventh Ward,
responded as follows:
SIR: We accept the Prize Banner
awarded us by the committee, with a
full knowledge of the conditions upon
which the award was made. The
Republican voters of the Seventh
Ward, while they claim to be in fact
the Banner Ward of Evansville, will
most cheerfully hand over the flag to
that ward which shall exceed the
| Seventh Ward in the number of
voters in procession next Saturday
evening. Upon these conditions we
accept the prize, aud next Tuesday
our citizens shall hear glad tidings
from the glorious Seventh. Having
achieved a decisive victory under
these g,orious Stars and Stripes once
before, we shall not fail, guided by
this same old flag as we are, to come
out of the battle of ballots with less
than one hundred majority. Giving
you this promising assurance on my
part, I again have the honor to thank
you, Ia the name of my company and
Ward, for this beautiful banner, EN-
blem of our country's pride and
greatness, aud, rest assured, we shall
never dishonOr, but always defend
and protect it.
Col. r. W. Thompson was then in
troduced to the audience, who ad-
dressed the people in one of the most
powerful, eloquent and convincing
speeches that ha; been delivered in
this city during the campaign. In
logic it was certainly faultless, and in
fact it was throughout, one of the
most telling speeches we have listen
ed to during the whole campaign.
We. regret that the weather was
not more favorable, so that our PEG
pie could have been out in force and
heard the speech. We have no.
space to give synopsis of the speech
and will not, in consequence Of that
in this short space we have, do more
than speak in terms of praise of it.
Throughout the speaker was applaud
ed most enthusiastically. We feel
satisfied that much good was done by
that eloquent and argumentative
speech of Col. r. w. Thompson.
