CHATTANOOGA, TENN, March IL. -
Wastburg is a town near here in the noun
tains, away from the usual lines of travel,
and largely inhabited by Germans, who
mostly grow grapes and make wine. 1t Is
said there that nineteen years ago stran-
ger came to the place in the stage aud
stopped at the only hotel. He was given a
room, which he kept locked and the shut
tiers closed. After time he mingled with
the people under the name of Sinclair, CIV
ing out that he had been ship captain.
He was nervous and mysterious, ana al
ways avoided strangers, never going where
he might be seen by passengers arriving on
the stage. He always left crowd when
the late war was mentioned. He dropped q
paper once for which he searched long aud
eagerly. 1t was found and contained an
account of President Lincoln's assassina-
ton. IL was left where Sinclair could fud
It, and when he discovered IL he became
sick. In his delirium he called out tho
names Of Spangler, Harold, Atzerott, Payne
and Mudd, and said that his own name was
Booth. Whom he recovered, however, he
denied having ever said such things.
Last week visitor from Fredericksburg,
Va, was in the town and saw Sinclair just
as tho wind blew off his hat The Vir-
ginian was startled, saying: "Can that be
Erastus Booth, Wilkes Booths brother
The last time / saw him was in Washing
ton, just after Lincoln was assassinated."
The next day Sinclair was sccosted by some
Que with "Hello, Booth ~ He stopped sud-
denly, but seemed to remember himself aud
resumed his walk. That night he disap-
peared and has not since been seen or heard
of.-N. y. Tribune.

It was Not PROFESSIONAL.

The two able attorneys Judge t. j..
Mackey and Mr.. N. Dumont, who are en-
gagged in the defense of General Hazen be-
fore the court-martial, are not as amiabIe
and pleasant toward each other as they
should be. In fact there Is a decided cool
ness between them. Each acts as if he
thought the other was in the way. The
Judge, however, was the first to throw his
caster in the ring and thus show the court
and audience that he was the leading
counsel. The two attorneys sat together
the first and second days. General Hazen
sits between them now, He is evidently
afraid that they will come together. Judge
Mackey was examining witness the other
day when his colleague wrote out ques-
ton for him to put the witness. He handed
the paper to General Hazen and the latter
turned 1t over TO Judge Mackoy. The
Judge scanned it, and facing both General
Hazen and Mr.. Dumont, said, "No sir, I'll
not do it. 1t is unprofessional, it is unpro-
fessional" The question was not put and
the Judge continued the examination in
his own way.

TELEGRAPH.
THE BOOMERS INTENTIONS.
They will March Upon Oklahoma
ON Monday

On Monday.
ARKANSAS CITY, KAN, March 14.-By
Tomorrow night General Hatch will have
the entire Ninth United States Cavalry in
camp six miles south Of Arkansas City, in
order to drive out the Couch Colony of
Boomers, who yesterday formally an
nounced their intention OF marching upon
Oklahoma on Monday. The Secretary of
War yesterday telegraphed General Hatch
through General Augur, who is in Wash
ingtop, that II he needed more troops no
could have them, and General Hatch has
telegTaphed to Fort Leavenworth to have
five companies In readiness to move at q
moments notice
The troops already here are In the imme-
date command Of Major Benton, who was
with Reno at the time General Custer was
killed, in 1876, and he says he knows his
men will fight, as for three years they havo
been scouting and fighting Indians in New
Mexico and Arizona, and II the Couch
colony think they will not fight they are
mistaken. General Hatch visited tho main
camp, on Chelicoo Creek, Ia. day for the first
time and found the men In q most advan-
tageous position, and when tho column
under Captain Tom Devices join Benton
Sunday morning the force will bo so
formidable that 1t would be impossible for
any number of Boomers to pass the line.
Captain Couch addressed the Boomers at
their camp yesterday and counseled them
to be prepared to move on Monday aud to
come with rations for sixty days aud with
agricultural implements of all sorts, as i'm
mediately upon their arrival at Oklahoma
they would begin farming. Unloss word
comes from Washington to withdraw the
troops, General Hatch will not bulge and
the colonists cannot reach Okla
lahoms. Last night United States
Commissioner Sherman, United States
District Attorney Hatton aud United
States Marshal Rarick came over from
Wichita, and it is understood that whole
sale arrests of the Boomers will be made to-
day and continue until the last man Is
placed under bonds. Additions are being
made TO the colonists, and Couch has under
his command atleast 900 men, we'll stocked
and provisioned, and all intent upon going
into the Territory.

McCauiey Given Five Years in the
Albany Penttentiary.

The jury in the case of George McCauley,
Charles and Harry Frouth, after an Absence
of five minutes, came into the Criminal
Court yesterday afternoon with verdict OF
guilty as to all of the three defendants.
Judge Macarthur, in passing sentence,
commented upon the increase of crime, and
said that his experience in the court had
been that intemperance was not so much
responsible for it as laziness and idleness.
He thought that the course of training aud
education of the present day could be
greatly improved upon, and If boys were
given trade to start them in life instead
of worthless instruction, less Of them would
graduate as worthless and unable to sup
port themselves. He then sentenced Nc
Cauley to the Albany Penitentisry for FIVE
years aud the two Frouth boys to the Re.
form School during their minority.

Many case supposed to be radical lung
disease is really one of liver complaint and
indigestion, but, unless that diseased liver
can be restored to healthy action, it will so
clog the lungs with corrupting matter as to
bring on their speedy decay, and then in
deed we have consumption, which is
scrofula of the lungs in its worst form
Nothing is more happily calculated TO nip
this danger in the bud than is DR.. Pierce's
"Golden Medical Discovery" By drug
