An Incident of Keaesaw Mountain.

In the course Of the battle there oc.
currei II pathetic incident showing that
"olood is thicker than water" At one
place on the mountain the dry leaves
aud brush began to burn, and the creep.
ing flames encircIed many u poor fellow
living helpless and in agony on the
ground The Confederates at that por.
ton Of the line were ordered to cease
firing, and then one OF their officers
called to the Federals and offered TO sus.
pend hosfilities long enough to allow the
removal Of the disabled. While the
Union soldiers bore their comrades to
the rear, the Confederates looked on, and
then the fighting was ewed.-Blue

The sasks and the sonds.

A correspondent, who seems to be
really In search of information, writes TO
ask US why the national banks are in
favor Of burden,ng the people with new
bond issues.
To those who understand the prac,ica,
workings Of the laws under which the ns.
tional banks operate the mat ter il very
simple. Tue banks buy the bonds, and
the government pays them 8 per cent.
interest on them. Then the banks Dor.
row 30 per cent Of the face value Of the
bonds, aud pay per cent interest on IL
and then the banks loan out this 30 Der
cent at rates ranging from TO Is per
cent. Isn't this good reason why the
banks want bonds9
But let US simplify matters. John
Jones has $l0O, 900 that he wants TO in
vest IN government securities. He goes
to the peoples treasury ana buys SlO0,-
600 worth OF bonds, on which he receives
per cent interest IN gold. John Jones
then u,illzss the peoples treasury as a
safe deposit, leaves his bonds there and
borrows 10000 Of the peoples money a.
per cent, sets himself up as a national
banker and lends his 10000 out at an
average rate Of IL per cent which, added
TO the 5 per cent interest he draws on his
bonds makes his investment highly pro.
titable.
1t will be seen that the moment Jones
becomes bondnolder he is priviledgrd
person. He nay MT only dsp,sit his
bonds for safety In the treasury depart
ment, but he nay borrow the peoples
money at per cent. But when the pso
pie want TO borruw money they have TO
20 to John Jones and pay IL per cent for
IL; and they cannot get 1t, even at that
rate unless they plank down under Jones'
nose the same bi,d OF security on which
he borrowed his money at per cent

from the ever flowing Glla river, and the
canal flows through the reservoir. The

For duck hunting there il no better

There is more Catarrah in this section
of the country than all other diseases pu,
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For a great
many years doctors pronounced it local
disease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be con-
stitutional disease, and, therefore, re.
quires constitutional treatment. Halls
