COMING TO SEE ABOUT 1T.

Mayor Baltic Waggensr Says Representa-
tive AtchisOn People Want Saloons
Open.
Governor Morrill, is in receipt of let
ter from Mayor Bailie Waggener, of
Atchison,. who says he is coming over
with a company of representative business
men TO see the governor and protest
against his orders closing the Atchison
saloons.
Mayor Waggener is very mad because
the preachers of his town have told the
governor how wicked Atchison people
are.
In an interview with an Atchison re-
porter Mayor Waggener said:
''There never has been a time in the
history of the city when the law was so
rigidly enforced as now This thing is
unfortunate now, as the city is enjoy
ing an unparalleled era of prosperity,
and it should be frowned down by all
good citizens. The result of this contro-
versy will be a burdensome occupation
tax, which is to be deplored. If the
ministers will not CO. operate with the
citizens in building up the city, then l
am in favor of Withdrawing all support
from the ministers. l think / am as
strongly in favor of temperance and of
suppressing the evils of intemperance as
any minister in the city. Unless there
Is a puDIlc sentiment strong enough to
sustain any measure. it will not be sus-
tanned. The ministers can accomplish
more good by building a healthy pub
lie sentiment in favor of temperance and
sobriety than by interfering in any way
that Injuries and destroys our CITY,"
The Atchison police commissioners
have decided to obey Governor MorrilPs
instructions, and at their meeting Satur
day night made the following order clos
ing the saloons:
"From and after Tuesday, July 2, 1895,
the chief of police, Owen E. Seit. is here
by instructed to enfoi &c the prohibitory
law, also the law against gambling and
other vices"

ATCHIsON, July IA few of Atchi-
sons sports we're witnesses of a novel and
exciting contest beside which cock
fighting, horse racing and craps pale
into insignifcance. few evenings since.
It was a butting match between a color
ed man and sheep.
A bet of s. was made that the negro
would kill the sheep in five rounds.
Colored man and sheep were placed in
an enclosure, when the former commence
ed aggressive operations by squatting on
his hands and knees, saying, "BahY' The
sheep took one look at him, made a rush
and in less time than it takes to tell it
the man was rolling in the dust He was
knocked clean off his underpinning, but
was not hurt in the least
When time was called for the second
round the negro again got down on his
hands and knees and facing the sheep
again said "Bah!" The sheep hesitated
a moment, then made leap and went
for the man. The negro, however, by
dexterous twist offhe neck so managed
matters that the full force of the butt
came upon the sleeps nose and he was
thrown clean over the mans back. The
sleeps neck was broken and he died al
most instantly.

Wheat opened firm at about the clos
ing price Saturday with indications of an
advance, the crowd we're expecting de-
crease in the visible of over two million,
but when it came only showing a de-
crease of 100000 bushels the bears
begun to sell wheat, and tired holders
commenced dumping some of their
wheat which they had been carrying
from rs down. We look for little more
liquidation in wheat before we get any
permanent advance. New wheat is
coming to market and is turning out bet
ter than has been expected.
Corn and oats-Corn acted in sympa-
thy with wheat and with the splendid
showery weather all over the corn
belt we look for lower prices.
Oats have been heavy throughout
the entire session and has been dragged
down with corn. We look for better
prices for both corn and oats later on.
Provisions have been dull most of the
session with a downward tendency for

Judge William Henry Dewitt is one of the most prominent lawyers and judges in East Tennessee. He is leading member of the Southern Methodist church in Chat tanooga. In legal business and social cir oles he stands high, and his statements, says the Chattanooga Press, are regarded of special weight because of his venerable character, he being now 67 years old.
 He has held several prominent positions in a legislative and judicial capacity, hay ing served as 6 member of the southern congress at Richmond during the war, and since that time az judge of the chancery court, one of the highest offices in judicial practice next to the supreme court.
 He was admitted to the bar in 1850. In 1855 he was elected to the state legislature, but declined re. election.
 After his removal to East Tennessee he was appointed special chancellor by Gov ernor Taylor and filled the office for two years. He has successfully practiced before the supreme court of the United States for years.
 In recent years, owing to the heavy work he has performed, he has been subject to nervousness, and his attention has been called at various times, both by friends and physicians, to the need of fortifying him. self against physical collapse. His atten

 Overhearing his conversation, friend asked him to write down his experience for the use of others so afflicted. In response he wrote as follows:
 'DEAR SfR In obedience to your re- quest, l state some of uy personal knowl- edge of the value of Paine's celery com pound as medical remedy for certain af- hictions and diseases, as follows, namely:
 .'Judgiug from my own experience, it is a first class remedy to restore the nervous system when broken down or impaired from overwork of mind or body, revivify- ing tue energies. It strengthens the diges- tive powers and cures costiveness; truly it is great nerve tonic, a good alterative, a splendid diuretic. It is good for the kid neys and the blood, renews vitality and re- stores strength. It surpasses anything l have used as health renewer, strength giver aud system regulator. It quiets weak nerves, gives better rest, increases both ap- petite and digestion, and brings back lost power of balmy sleep, nature's sweet re- storer. Yours truly,
