AS the regular speakers had not as vet

called for speech from J. b. Fishback of
Winfield, who began by saying that in
his old kentucky home that if one blew IA
bugle, some one wonld come out and en-
terrain the crywd. There has been much
said in paise of the soldiers, but n very
little had been said concerning the women.
He said that the woman made as great If
not greater sacrificer than the man.

that took great deal of decision Of

One wonld almost think to hear the

Mr.. Tanner said he wanted to talk to
the young people of both sex as they were
the fathers and mothers of the coming
generation. The old soldier is gray, and
grizzled now, but twenty-seven years ago
they were The young blood of the nation.
They were called upon suddenly to prove
their patriotism. The future looked
as bright and promising to them
then as it does to the young people now.
What did il cost to prove their patriotism?
1t cost the lives of 100000 good men. 1t

United States. He mad seen men die by
inches of starvation and disease; had seen
men literally torn to pieces by shot and
shell; had and can now see them all broken

one to see or hear him say that he was
sorry for what he had done, and if the toe
sin of war was to sound again under like
circumstances they would do the same
thing again.
The speaker then recounted the history
of his own misfortune in losing both legs
at Charlottesville by shell from Stonewall
Jackson's army. He said that he had been
in Castle Garden and seen four generations
of one family land in this country. We
ought, he said, to be careful about the
kind of immigration that came TO this
country. There was plenty of room for
people who wanted to live under our flag,
but there was no room here for the red rag
of Anarchy.
The speaker was frequently interrupted
by loug continued applause. Space forbids

AN UNIQUE CHARACTER.

In the line Of march yesterday morning
was seen what most people thought to be
an Indian woman. In one sense of the
word that was true as she is one-eighth
Cherokee, three-eighths negro and the
balance Yankee, as she calls il. The WON
an referred to is Mrs. Caroline Cole, OF
Sal1na, Kan. She says she was born near
Morgan's Bluff, in Louisiana in 1872 Her
father was Yankee. her mother half
breed negro and her grandfather on her
mothers side was Cherokee Indian. She
was born a slave.
She is uneducated and blames it upon
her former owner. Upon being set free by
the emancipation proclamation in 1863, she
left Morgan's Bluff and went to Fort Pike
where she engaged in the occupation of
nursing. She was not one of the enlisted
nurses but volunteer one. 1t made my
heart bleed. she said, to see the many poor
soldiers dying and suffering for want of
care and she thought she would do all
in her power to help them. She stayed
with the army till the war closed when
she married a man by the name of Mark
Williams, with whom she lived some ten
years, when they agreed to disagree and
one went one way and the other another
After some three or four years of widow
hood she again embarked upon the sea of
matrimony, this time sharing as the part
ner of her joys and sorrows a Texan by the
name of Jacob Dobbins, of Galveston, but
in less than year he died of quick con-
sumption. Upon the death of her husband
she left Texas and went to Virginia, where
she was married third time to one Willis
Harris, who only lived a few years. Her
fourth and last venture was with yankee
10y the name of John Cole, of Boston,
Mass. He, like his predecessor, soon
Joined the great majority across the stream
of time.
Mrs. Cole carries on her back three
small blankets with the names of her last
three husbands pinned upon them. That she
is patriotic cannot be denied, as she wore
the red, white and blue in great profusion
Her skirt was Of some blue material, while
her basque WAS of some kind of red and
white cloth. She never tires Of telling the
"reminiscences of her eventful life and Of
Marsa Grant, Perhaps many of the old
soldiers who were in the hospital at Fort
Robinson will remember her as she was
there for over year. She has resided at
Salina for the past thirteen years.

CANZONE CHORUS.

The curtain rose at the opera house last
evening upon a musical chorus, composed
entirely of home talent, that reflected
great credit on the Peerless Princess, her
cslture in general and musical abilities in
| particular. Full justice can scarcely be
done in the space allotted to them, for
each of Wichita's lovely daughters and
handsome sons that partook in the enter
taiDment, deserves special praise. The
overture by Misses Clark and Stever was
generously applauded as did the full cho-
rus in America.

number of the old army comrades at the

Monday morning at his home, 446 North

his back. and DR.. Kirkwood says
there will be no getting him released until

every available car in the street car system
was pressed into service, thousands had
either to walk or go in other vehicles. The
grounds were jammed from morning till
night, but the day was pleasant and every
body had a good time.
The day opened with the usual morning
gun, which welcomed the rising sun.
Then every old soldier was On his feet, for
the parade was to commence at
