shown by people who prefer to suffer
for years rather than try an advertised
remedy. The millions who have no
such notions, take Ayers Sarsaparlla

The Fourth Delaware Regiment Hold an
Indignation Meeting Over the Buck
inghan Medal.

inghaln Medal.
The veterans of the Fourth Delaware
Regiment held meeting in the rooms of
du Pont Post. Tenth and Market streets,
Wednesday, to take action in regard to
the awarding of a medal to Captain y.
+. Buckingham, for bravery during the
war of the rebellion. in swimming the
Rowanty river. 1t is the claim of some
that buckingham is not entitled to tho
mark of bravery, and that it was awarded
on the strength of a claim put in by him
to the officials Of the War Department.
There are number of soldiers i'll this city
who declare that it was United States COM
missioner S. Redmond Smith who swan
the Rowanty on that eventful day in Feb
ruary 1865.
When the medal was awarded to Buck
ingham some indignation was manifested
among the veterans of this city. their con-
tention being that Captain Smith is ell
titled to the token of bravery and that it
wasn't Capt, buckingham at all whoswarn
through the waters of the Rowanty while
bullets flew thick and fast above his head.
Daniel o'Nielt, who was formerly con-
nected with the capital police, at Wash
ington, says he saw Captain Smith swim
the river with his haversaCk on and carry
ing sword in his left hand. while he
| (O'Niell) sought the peaceful seclusion of a
large tree and watched the performance
| from the river bank.
| At the meeting of the veterans Wednes-
day it developed that the Rowantv creek
| was full of men when the "rebs" made
their attack and forced them to seek shelter
| on the other side of the stream. Ii was
also shown that Buckingham was in the
water, but he doesn't seem to have gotten
| any further than the waters edge. At any
rate, the consensus OF opinion is that he
! did not swim across. One man has been
found who saw him drying his clothes on
the bank of the river.
| Captain buckingham was notified to be
| present at the meeting. but did not put in
an appearance. He is in Washington.
where he holds a position in the War De.
partmcnt. A telegram was received from
Buckingham saying that the notice was
received too late for him to attend the
meeting. Ex-Presdent OF the Levy Court
Richard G. buckingham was present &c
defeNd his brother. He said the aim oi
the meeting was to oust Captain Bucking
ham from the War Department. Sergeant
Chambers, who said he saw Buckingham
in the water, expressed the same opinion
The other veterans entered denial to tllit
declaration, and asserted that their desr,
was only to give honor TO whom honor Ii
due.
Captain Smith told the story of mar
named Wilson, who crossed the creek be
low the bridge and was rewarded by promo
ton. Another story was told of Samue
Worrall who swan across holding abov,
his head his gun. The other men OBJ
served in the creek were John Bradford
Spencer Yarnall, Major Kent and Richart
Williams.
Captain Smith said that he had writer
to Buckingham in May last in reply TO
letter from the latter. telling him that III

matter will be further Investigated q

A man about 80 years old. with dark
hair and dark mtlstache and wearing a
light coat and vest with dark trousers,
walked into the law office of Christopher
L. Ward in the Equitable Building at l.3U
O'Clock on Friday afternoon and sat down.
Deputy Attorney General Branch H.
Giles, whose law office adjoins that OF Mr..
Ward, came in few minutes later and the
stranger inquired if he was Mr. Ward. On
being Informed that Mr.. Ward was at
lunch the stranger said he would call
again.

the same description entered the jewelry
store Vi Charles NJ. Banks, No, 6l5 Market
street, carrying i'll his hand what pur-
ported To be Il note from Mr.. Ward asking
the lewcler to send two ladies' gold watches
to his Office as he wanted to make i selec-
tion. The letter was written on one OF the
| young lawyer letter heads and there was
nothing about the young man that excited
| the slightest suspicion. Mr.. BANKS was
absent i'll Phiadelphia, but Henry w.
| Sherwin, the engraver, who is partner OF
| Mr.. Banks, read the note and handed out
| two elegant gold watches which the
stranger examined. lie declined to accept
| the costly timepiecrs, saying that Mr..
| Nhftt tlll not care 10 pay any more tlhil
| Sl5, so Mr.. Sherwin gave him two chro-
nOmeters of the valuc asked for. The
| FELLOW then left the store saying lie would
| be back inside OF 10 minutes.
.lfter his departure Mr.. Sherwin became
suspicious and sent his errand boy to fol-

and he would kill TWO birds with one
stone. Just US he was entering the jewclry
store to get the car fare, he glanced up the
street to see how far the stranger had
| gotten, and saw him looking around. He
ran into the store and got the car fare and
| then went as far as Seventh and Market
Streets where ali trace of the jewclry rhief
was lost. lie then hunted up Mr.. Ward
and the latter declared that his mys-
turious friend was nothing less than
the biggest kind of humbug. He sent a
note to Mr.. Sherwin saying that he did not
send for any watches, Iaat he had no IN
tention of making any costly presents of
lowelry Just ut present, and advising the
jeweier To aUtify the authorities at once.
Mr.. Sherwn hastened to the City Hall and
told Chief DOlan what had happened. In
short time the matter was tclcphoncd to
every patr0man within the city limits.
They were instructed to look out fora mnn
answering the description already given,
but so far the stranger has not been fouu!
and there is absolutely no clue TO his
whereabouts.

Horses Shocked Nearly Every Day Willie
crossing tho Eleventh street Draw.
The iron rim Of the draw OF Eleventh
street bridge is a source of great deal
Of annoyance to drivers of teams. III wet
and frosty weather it becomes charged
with electricity every time car passes
over the draw and if q morse steps on it
the animal receives a shock, sometimes
Of sufficient violence to render the
animal unconscious. No horses have
been killed, but they arc shocked nearly
every damp or frosty day.
The IRON is scarcely quarter of an
inch thick, but it is thick enough to
conyey the dangerous current As it is
now placed it is flush with the flooring
Of the bridge, and nearly every horse
that goes over the draw seems to step
on it. If the iron were removed below
the surface OF the floor there would be
no danger.
Some drivers are becoming SO we'll ac-
quainted with the condition of the
bridge as to keep of it if car is cross
ing. The circuit is only made by the
presence of car. At other times the
| little rim is harmless.
