he Is Confident of Republican Success
in New York.
The following letter, read at a recent
meeting of New York Republicans,
shows the unmistakable attitude of ex-
Senator Platt and his confidence in Re
publican success:
40 BROADWAY, New York, Sept. l.
Mr.. John E Milholland, Chairman Republican
Mass Meeting, Scottish Rite Hall, New York
MY DEAR Mr.. MILHoILAND-I have YOUR
kind invitation to attend your mass meeting
this evening, and were it possible you know
would gladly accept. I am with you in spirit,
however, and shall be glad to learn that my
confident expectation as to the success of the
gathering will be fully realized. Indeed I do
not see how it can be otherwise than a success
with such an exceptionally attractive pro-
gramme.
Senator Fassett himself is a strong enough
drawing card to fill Madison Square garden at
a half hours notice, not to mention Mrs. Eos
ter and the other speakers. The time for hold
ing the meeting is exceptionally fortunate.
The prospects for the Republican success grow
brighter every day and no livelier antithesis
could be desired than that which is furnished
by the demoralized condition of the enemy,
and the united, harmonious and aggressive
front presented by our grand old party through
out this and the other states. Sincerely yours
THOMAS G. PLATT.

DR.. STEDrlAN'S IMPROVEMENTS

fitting full upper and lower sets, and
MAKE THEM STAY WHERE THEY BELONG,

CHEAPER than all gold bridge work.
Partial lower plates that will remain

CENTRAL|A PACE.
LOST SIX HORS ES.

In the last six weeks Messrs. A. S.
Robinson and son have lost six head OF
horses. The six were in a pasture by
themselves and every one has died.
The other five head of horses so far are
apparently all right. What has been
the cause of death is a conundrum to
the owners. They have made applica-
ton and written two or three times for
the State Veterinarian, but as yet he
has not made his appearance. The last
horse died on Monday.

gard to my diet. [ have experimental

mended for that complaint, but with

Another War Bible Story

George Althisar, a veteran of the war
and now filling the place of letter car
rier at the postofice in Port Jervis, at
tended the Grand Army reunion at De-
troit, and took occasion while there to
restore to a coinrade a long lost Bible with
IN interesting history. The Bible was
originally Il gift to David Webster, a
Michigan volunteer, from his mother on
:he v of his departure for Virginia in
1861. Webster lost the book at the sec
ond battle of Bull Run.
1t fcl! into the hands of q Confederate
soldier of Stonewall Jackson's command
named Hayes. Following the moth
er's inscription to her son on the fly
leaf the soldier wrote a brief statement
of the circumstances under which it
came into his possession. He abandoned
his knapsack containing the book on the
battlefield at Bristow's station.
Althisar picked the volume up and
had carefully preserved it for twenty
six years as an interesting relic of a des-
perately fought battle. He was for
tunate in finding Comrade Webster at
the Detroit reunion and in restoring to
him a relic doubly precious because the
mother who gave it had died.-Cor.

Saved by His Thinness.

Usually when a man has been run over
by IN engine and a train of five cars the
coroner sits Oh what is left of him. With
the exception of the %coroner's inquest,
that is what happened to Jacob Kahn.
Nevertheless he is none the worse for
his remarkable experience. Nature made
Kahn a very thin man, and to this fact
he owes his life. Kahn is about twenty
two years old, and is a journeyman
baker. He is not very tall, but his thin
ness is a standing joke in the neighbor-
hood.
Being good natured, it never angered
him, and he was wont to laugh and re-
ply that some day they would envy him
for being slender. About Z O'Clock he
was talking to some acquaintance ut
Second street and Germantown avenue,
when Il shifting engine, drawing five
heavy freight cars, came along. Just as
it was almost opposite to him Kahn step
ped right between the tracks. A dozen
people shouted and screamed, and Kahn
saw his danger. Whether he suddenly
realized that his remarkable thinness
might be the means of saving his life, or
whether it was merely fright is not
known, but he fell fiat on his face us the
engine came up and passed over him.
The engineer could not stop and went
right on, while the people stood trans
fixed with horror. The five a r passed
over him. A policeman and a big crowd
ran into the street to gather up the
mangled corpse. Imagine their surprise
when Kahn jumped up, apparently UNI
hurt, brushing the dust from his new
Observation-Disclosures Press.

suar,ncd on tho Farmer,

Peter Gross, who liyes near York
Springs, Md, had been working hard
all the morning and about 10 o'clock
concluded to take a nap under a cherry
tree. BE had just fallen into a doze
when he heard ~ buzzing sound. He
awoke to find a hive of his own bees
swarming on his head. Rushing into
the field he thought that by covering his
head with. earth he could get rid of
them. But that did not have the desired
effect.
Being ON the crest of one of the high
hills which surround his house, he then
threw himself on the ground, gave his
body a shove and down he went, rolling
over stones, sticks and bushes, until at
last he reached the kitchen door. By
that time the bees had left him, and, al
though he was very much cut and
bruised, none of the wounds were seri-
ous.-Baltimore American.

Remarkable Growth of Tobacco.

J.W. Cook came in Saturday and told
about some tobacco ho is raising. Last
year he raised a crop of the weed, and
after he cut it in the fall suckers grew
out from the stumps. These suckers re-
tanned their vitality all winter and in the
spring began growing with increased
vigor. MI. Cook pruned them down to
one to the hill and cultivated the crop.
He says it is just as good as the crop he
planted last spring, the leaves being
broad and heavy, instead of narrow and
peaked as the leaves of suckers usually
are.-Elsberry Mo.) Advance.
