FAITHFUL OFFICERS
Who Stood 10 Their Posts and Did Their
Duty WeIl---The Louisville
Railroad.

During the yellow fever epidemic there
was many an unknown hero. Among the
men who discharged their duty with fear
less zeal and in the most exemplary man
ner, were the officers of the Memphis di-
vision Of the Louisville and Nashville and
Great Southern railroad. The conductors,
Messrs. ID. A. Cole, John Hilbert and Pat
Kelly, never missed a single trip, but ran
their trains into Memphis regularly and
reliably. They evidenced an unusual de-
gree of efficiency and manifested a zeal
worthy the great corporation to which
they belong. To the un1inching courage,
the unexceptional politeness and never
failing promptness of Messrs. Kelly, Cole
and Hilbert fare due the safe conveyance
to and fro of helpless children and women
who had to flee our stricken city. Hundreds
Of persons well remember the good care
which they received at the hands of these
noble men and the unusual efforts made
for the comfort and convenience of the
passengers. Since the epidemic many
have received testimonials for their con-
duct in facing death and acting the part
Of humanitarians. None deserve more
praise or are entitled to q higher considera-
ton of respect and esteem than the con-
ductors. In this connection it is appro-
priately suggested that these conductors
should receive a gold badge from the
Howards Or the citizens of Memphis. A
testimonial of this kind would indeed be
an expression Of the admiration and the
gratitude felt for noble men by an appre-
ciative community. We trust the sug-
gestion will not only meet with the APP
probation of the Towards and citizens
but receive a practical and desirable full
fllment.

Last Thursday a party of boys discov-
cred the body of a man under the snow
in an old field near the extension of Lau-
derdale street and Walker avenue, in the
suburbs of the city. The remains were
close up against a fence and doubled up.
Coroner Caldwell was informed and upon
his deputy repairing to the vicinity it re-
quired an hour or more to find the body,
it at last being detected half hidden be-
meath the snow. A jury was summoned
and upon examination the body provedto
be that Of a stout built person, well dressed
and with sandy hair and beard. A bottle
which had contained chloro 'orm was
found on the remains; also a ten cent bed
ticket from Charles Berton. Nothing was
found on the remains to identify them
The man had doubtless lost his way in
the snow, lay down in the fence corner
and swallowed the chloroform. A ver-
dict was found in accordance with the
facts.

IT is a notorious fact that when a mans
stomach becomes disordered he begins to
feel badly all over. He loses his appetite,
his strength fails him, and WEAKNESS and
lassitude take the place of his former en-
ergy. He then falls an easy victim to ma
larial fever or fever and agle. He should
renew his health by the use of Reeds
Gilt Edge Tonic. 1t restores the appetite,
and stimulates digestion. 1t is guaranteed
in quality, purity and flavor.

had received the nomination he would
have been elected; 10 this they are
greatly mistaken. The Germans vo'

they do not like, for they consider
