The learned doctor says: "Keep some
kind of tonic medicine always in the
house, and if anyone feels unwell, make
free use of it. But first, be sure that it is
both harmless as well as meritorious. Put
no trust in alcoholic preparations; neither be
partial to any remedy that produces severe
cathartic effect, for prostration of the nerv.

Garfield as q Mason.

CLEVELAND, September 25-The
records of Masonic Lodge No. PAT,
at Garrettsville, a little town near
Hiram, show the following facts !:
July 25, 1865, General Garfield was
again present at the lodge meeting as
a visitor; September 26, 1865, Cen
eral Garfield was present and made
application for membership at this
lodge; October 10, 1865, General
Garfield was elected member of
the lodge; December s, 1868,
James A. Garfield was
elected chaplain of the lodge; De-
cember IA, 1869. Mr.. Garfield was
re elected chaplain of the lodge.
There is no record of his being
present at meetings subsequent to
that time. There is correspondence
which shows the payment of dues
up to a transfer of membership to
the lodge at Washington. The
members of the lodge are greatly
disappointed at not being able to
find the ori ginal resolutions drafted
by MIR. Garfield. By some oversight
they were not engrossed upon the
records Of the lodge, and up to this
time the newspaper has not been
found in which they were published.

Mr.. NJ. T. Leach, about 10 years old, a
brakeman on the Cincinnati Southern Rail
way, where he had been employed about a
week, met with a horrible death Monday
morning, about O'Clock. He was going

Chattanooga, and his body ives
horribly mangled. Telegraphic information
was received in this city by his brother, Mr..
Arthur Leach, clerk in the E. t., V. & G.
freight depot, and ne went down after the
remains. The deceased leaves a young and
newly married wife, who was here visiting,
and upon whom the sad intelligence fell
with peculiarly affecting force.
The remains were taken through on last
nights train, in charge of the brother, to
Morristown, the home of the deceased,
where they will be buried to-day. The
sadly bereaved young wife and her sister in
law, Mrs. Arthur Leach, went up yesterday

Railroad Accident.

RICHMOND, Va, September 81
The fast mail train bound south,
and the northern bound regular
mail train, of the Atlantic Coast line,
collided last evening near Chester.
on the Richmond and Pittsburg
Railroad. Both engines and bag-
gage and mail cars of each train
were badly smashed. Fortunately
no one was fatally hurt. Postal
Agents Rourke and Hawkins were
severely hurt, and several others
sustained slight injuries. The en-
gineer and fremen of both trains
saved themselves by jumping off.
The accident is attributed to the dis
regard of orders on the part of the
conductor and engineer of the north
ern bound train, which should have
remained at Chester until the fast
mail train passed.

Centennial Celebration at York.

Fort MONROE, Va, September p.
Preparations for the centennial
celebration at Yorktown are being
pushed forward and will no doubt
be completed, as far as the limited
resources at command will admit, in
ample time. One company of en-
gineers in charge of Lieutenant
Townsend, and battery of
artillery under command Of
Capt S. J. Myrick, are now employed
clearing grounds for the encappment
Of troops. Capt. L. G. Forsyth, Of
the quartermaster's department, is
also on the grounds arranging for an
ample supply of fuel, forage, &c and
also looking after water supply for
the encampment. Arrangements for
the accommodation of visitors, so far
as Yorktown is concerned, are very
meagre, and those coming from a
distance will have to depend chiefly
upon the steamers upon which they
| will arrive for meals and sleeping &C
commodations. There are but three
small hotels in the town, with ac-
commodations for not more than 200

Terrible Explosion at Council

Serious Riot at Atlanta Last
Monday.
Action by Governors at Cleveland.

COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa, September
27.-At FIVE o'clock last evening, just
at the close of the Garfield memo
rial exercises, the city was shaken to
its very center by terrific explosion.
Instantly great volume of smoke
was seen to ascend in the southwest
ern part of the city. Investigation
of the cause of the explosion dis
closed the fact that on Saturday last
a car load of gunpowder, billed as
common blasting powder, reached
here over the c., r l. & P. R. r.;
on it's way to Denver, Colorado. The
A. Y. Company, however, refused to
receive the dangerous freight, and
the car was returned to the r. I.
yards, where, from some case, it ex-
ploded with fearful force last
evening. The concussion demolished
the company round house and re-
pair shops, of brick, and freight
house, of frame, besides forty or fifty
freight cars, and dug hole in the
ground fifteen feet deep and forty
five feet in diameter. Large windows
in all parts of the city were shattered
in pieces. Pieces of plastering were
torn from the houses and strewn in
all directions. Windows were even
broken by the conclusion in Omaha,
on the opposite side of the river, and
as far as Missouri Valley junction,
twenty miles north of u.s. The loss
will foot up several hundred thousand
dollars

A Disgraceful Riot at Atlanta

New York, September 27.-An
Atlanta special in an evening paper
states that during the comemoratior
services at DeGives' opera-house
last evening, the police keeping back
the crowd were assaulted by a col
ored man, who was soon joined by
others, and a general riot becam :
imminent. Twenty five thousand
people lined the streets, and the
panic at one time struck them. A
scene of the widest confusion en-
sued, which resulted in crushing
many women and children. The
policemen used their clubs dexteri-
ously and succeeded in arresting
about twenty of the ringleaders.
They were followed to jail by large
crowd, and an attempt was made to
rescue the prisoners, during which
many persons were wounded. The
officers finally lodged them in jail,
and by midnight the excitement had
entirely subsided.

veneration of the people for our lamented
President should be permitted to be ex-
pressed in some enduring form. A COM

land, Ohio, have issued the following to the
people of the United States:

the duty of receiving contributions and
erecting a monument in Lake View over

cality throughout the States and Territories is
requested to organize for this object in such

tributed, given below. The list will close
