Capt. Stacker received blank requi-
sition papers this morning from Adj
lutant General Norman to be filled
with the things needful to equip his
company, the GAINESVILLE City
Guards. The list enumerated con-
sists of forage caps, blouses, cavalry
pairs, artillery pairs and infantry
pairs, trouser stripes, and blank
with instructions 70 "insert here ar
ticles not enumerated above" Capt.
Stacker is not the man to take his
boys out unequipped, unprepared to
die, TO suffer, bleed and run, as the
boys had to do in the last war. He
has thirty-two braves who have vol
unteered to go with him to Brice-
vile, and stand until the last gun is
fired, and he will see that they are
provided for. The most wanted in
the list are forage caps, stripes
and cavalry pairs. The blanks
need to be filled with blan
kets, knapsacks feather beds
four brass cannons and thirty two
number one cavalry horses and ten
extra horses for remounting the men
who may have their horses shot from
under. This kind of equipment will
look like business.

The Appeal valanche rises to re-
mark that "the intersection of the

issue is unnecessary and altogether
distracting at the present time. y
Yes, 1t was very distracting all over
the country and especially in the
West last November. 1t came near
running the Republican party out,
and they are still distracted, and
Grover and the gold bugs were dis
tracted some more in New York

A Wonder Worker,

Mr.. Frank Huffman, young man
of Burlington, Ohio, states that he had
been under the care Of two prominent
physicians, and used their treatment
until he was not able to get around.
They pronounced his case to be Con
sumption and incurable. He was per-
suaded to try DIR. Kings New Dis
covery for Consumption, Coughs and
Colds and at that time was not able
to walk across the street without rest
ing. He found, before he had used
half of a dollar bottle, that he was
much better; he continued to use it
and is to-day enjoying good health.

The Last Platform is Authority.

The Banner rather objects to the
meeting OF the Executive Committee
on the grounds that the committee
has no authority to take any definite
action. 1t says:
"FOr instance the committee are
not authorizen to decide whether the
sub treasury plan or the unlimited
coinage Of deprecated silver dollars is
consistent with the true Democratic
Idea OF sound economies and sound
money. We insist that both the sub
treasury scheme and the unlimited
coinage of fiat silver dollars are I'M
democratic, but the Democratic State
Committee cannot authoritively de-
eide the question by the issuance of
any decree or ukase."
The sub-treasury scheme is the
worst kind of class legislation, which
everyone knows is undemocratic, and
was adopted by the Alliance leaders
because undemocratic, to divide the
South, and this committee can pass
on. Nobody is demanding the free
coinage OF deprecated silver De
mocracy simply demands the appre-
citation of silver to its coinage value,
on an equal footing with gold by re.
monetization, which comes of free
coinage. This Is not only plain,
straight Democratic doctrine, affirm
cd In every Democratic platform
since silver was demonetized, and
which any commit, G or any Demo-
crat may promulgate, but it is also
demanded by the constitution of the
country. There is no danger of the
committees going wrong on either
of these questions, il guided by the
declaration of the last State platform
which they were appointed to carry
out, and If that is not clear enough,
they may consult the National plat
forms of "a and 'SS, and some half
dozen State platforms lately enacted
on the silver question, and the con-
stitution we live under.

Postmaster Wilcox Making Tour of the
Country Ofioes.

In obedience to a request, issued
by the Postmaster General recently,
r. G. Wilcox, postmaster at this
place, has been this week, making a
tour through the country inspecting
the postOffices. He returned to the
city last night from the northern
and western portion of the county,
and to day left to visit Sango, Wood
ford and Carmel, on the Pleasant
View route. While there are some
offices in the country that are well
and Systematically kept, there
are others, judging from an
interview with Mr.. Wilcox, that
need turning over pretty badly.
There have been several complaints
turned in at this Office recently
against certain country postoffices
and these complaints seem to have
been well founded. Mail is received,
dumped into basket, pushed under
the bed, or something else, children
have free access to everything that
comes to the Office, and the wonder
is that the people get their mai! mat
ter at all. Ia justice it should be
said, however, that Mr.. Wilcox has
found only few offices being kept in
this style, and he thinks his visit will
do them good. The offices on the
south side will be visited next week.

mand he thinks it will, it will bring
him a fortune.

A Curiosity.

Squire H. H. Mockbee, of the
Eighteenth district, brought in two
curious stones Friday morning. One
appears to be a hind.leg of a hog pet,
rified and crystalized, the other an
Irish potato, and looks like sand
stone. The hogs leg was found in a
gulley some ten feet deep. Mr..
Mockbee made search for other parts
of the animal and found sticking in
the side of the bank part of the
head, showing one jawbone, the
teeth and one large tusk broken of
and one eye. The leg shows the nat
ural crook and joints, also the hoof.
This was about ten feet below the
surface, and below it was solid bed
of limestone covered with tough red
clay.

NIAGARA FALLS RECEDING.
Startling Results Shown by Con
fpact;Dr No,x, and OLD Survavc

Startling Results Shown by Con-
trasting New and Old Surveys.
The matter of greatest interest that
came up before the meeting this week
in New York of the commissioners of
the state reservation of Niagara, says
the New York Evening Post, was the
report presented by the state engineer
upon a new survey just made by him,
showing the position of the crest lines
and bluffs of the falls, and facts as to
the recession of the falls since 1912. the
date of the earliest Trustworthy record.
In that year survey was made by
the state geolOgist. The engineers new
survey showed the creStS of the rocks as
they would appear if no water had been
falling over them. These were not diff
ficuit to determine except at the points
of deepest curvature i'll the Horseshoe
fall.
The total mean recession of the Horse
shoe fall since 1912 was found to be 104
feet 6 inches, or an average of over two
feet each year. During the last four
years the average had been greater on
account of heavy fall of rock few
years ago.
The maximum recession of the Horse
shoe fall at one point was 270 feet since
1912. The mean recession Of the Amer
lean fall since 1912 was found to be 80
feet inches. In the same period the
length of the crest of the American fall
has increased from 1890 feet to 300
feet. The total area Of recession of the
American fall since 1912 is found to be
$1,000 square feet: Of the Horseshoe
fall, 275, 400 square feet.
Mr.. Bogert also reported that monu-
ments had been placed by the survey
ors in such position that further surveys
could easily be made. The report was
ordered to be made part of the annual
report soon to be presented to the legis-
loturp
