ton held its first annual meeting in the
Mayors Office, Elyria, on Wednesday of

lowing physicians were reported for

g. N. Harris aud DIR. Dale of Lorain,
DIR. A. G. More of Amherst, and DIR.

of the programme, and discussed uterine
displacement, cauSes and treatment
thereof DIR. Warren led the discussion,
and was followed by Drs. Cushing, Park,

struck by the limb of falling tree on

The Continental Railroad.

A new railroad, called the Continental,
is projected to Iun in direct line from
New York 20 Omaha, with branches to
Chicago and St. Louis. The company
win make no effort 90 strike large cities
on the route, the design being to build q
straight line which shall not deviate by
reason of mountain or valley, and 70
which the various intersecting lines now
in operation snail serve as feeders. Start
ing from the Hudson river, it crosses New
Jersey, thence enters the anthracite coal
regions of Pennsylvania through the bi-
luminous coal and oil regions through
the camel coal fields in the western part
OF the State II reaches its highest ele-
vation at Akron, OIL, $50 feet above the
level of the sea. Keeping due west IT
will Iun as near the forty-hrst parallel of
North latitude as possible till it reaches
Omaha. The branches mentioned win
leave the main road at Rensselaer,, Ind.
The distance to Chicago will be 7S0 miles;
TO st. Louis $50 miles and to Omaha ], 200
miles.
At convenient points along the line
three and four tracks will be laid, in
stretches extending for eight or ten miles,
for the purpose of passing large fleets OF
freight trains out of the way OF psssen-
ger trains.
AIS bridges viii be of a strength suf1-
cient 20 sustain maximum load crossing
at g high rate of speed, with not less than
si--fold of safety.
All tunnels viii be lined, and every
precaution will be taken to ensure safety
20 persons and property.
The road will be ballasted with broken
rock. eighteen inches in depth.
The rails now being made for this road
we're specially designed to sustain its
heavy traffic. The equipment will be one
of the highest order, and is now being
constructed from plans and specifications
specially prepared.
The time from New York to Chicago
will be "a hours, and passenger rates moi
exceeding two cents per mile.
1t promises to be the great railroad oi

HOW TO Save.

All men and women who work hard
with mind or body are subject to period
ical attacks of biliousness, which may
end in disordered kidneys or liver and
dangerous illness. A 80 ct. or 81 90 bot
tie Of Parker's Ginger Tonic will keep
these organs active, and by preventing
the attack save you much sickness, loss
of time, and great expense. Many fam
lilies are kept in perfect health by using
the Tonic when Spring or Fall sickness
threatens. Delay at such times means
danger.-Detroit Press. See other col

From the Hub.

There is perhaps no tonic offered to
the people that possesses as much real
intrinsic value As the Hop Bitters- Just
at this season of the year, when the
stomach needs an appetizer, or the blood
ne ds purifying, the cheapest and best
re ,nedy is Hop Bitters. An ounce of
D, evention is worth pound of cure,
don't wait till you are prostrated by a
disease that may take months for you to
-ecoyer in.-Boston Globe.

The Cowpens Centennial

The 11th was grand day for
Spartanburg, the occasion being
the Centennial Celebration of the
Battle of Cowpens and the Unveil-
ing of the Statue of Gen. Daniel
Morgan. The battle was fought
the 18th of January, l7Sl, at Cow
pens, Spartanburg County, four
teen miles above the city. Gen.
Daniel Morgan was the successful
commander of the American forces
at that battle. The battle ground
being in an out of-the-way place it
was determined to erect the Statue
IN the Public Square of Spartan
burg City; and to have the Cele-
bration in May instead of January.
The Monument was erected by the
original Thirteen States" the
Statue [bronze) was presented by
Congress, and is The work Of the
distinguished sculptor J. @. A.
Ward.
It is thought that fully 10000
people attended the Celebration.
Everything passed off pleasant!
and on grand scale; there was
not an accident nor single disa
greeable occurrence to mar the
complete success of the day. The
ceremonies consisted in an Grafton
by Gov. Hampton, representing
the s. aShern States Hon. Thomas
Wentworth Higginson, OF Boston,
representing the New England
States, and Hon. W. II. Francis, of
New Jersey, representing the Mid
dle States; the reading of a Gen.
tennial Ode; the dwelling; and a
g:4nd review of the Military by
Gen. Hunt of the g. S. Army.
s'Centennials" have been quite
frequent since 1876, and there is no
doubt that these occasions, where
North meets South to celebrate the
7alor, the patriotism and the glo'
ries CT common country, have
done much toward re, establishing
sentiment of unity and fraternity
among all sections Of the country.
The next Centennial will be that
of Yorktown, Va, in October, which
viii be grand affair.
