he was discovered by someone more devoted to the Union than to his personal welfare. Information was given to the Colonel lcommanding the district, who took a half dozen Of his men, and under cover of darkness,
 went to the house to capture this Confederate foeman. Arriving at the house he rushed in the door, pistol in hand and found the Confederate sol dier in the midst of his family, his pistol and belt lying upon the bureau within reach of his daughter, bean- tiful girl of IS summers. In an instant she grasped her fathe"'s pistol to shoot in defense of her fathers per son. The Colonel sprang forward, seized the pistol in her hand 10 dis arm her. Not being Spaniard, it never entered his mind to shoot her. In the struggle her pistol fired and she was shot through the hand, but her father succeeded in making his escape. The gallant officer returned in q few days to see about that wounded hand. He came again to express his profound regrets for that wound and again and again to hope for it's early recovery. He did not stop coming till he carried that hand off with him, clasped in his. It is his hand now and has been for 30 years. Around that family hearth stone there stands a group of noble sons, half Yankee, half Southron, but all Americans. We did not shoot women and children. We did not shoot prisoners in our great civil

WASHINGTON. March 2S.-When Sen ator Mills delivered his great speech on Cuba in the Senate on Tuesday, a speech described by that competent critic, Senator Morgan, of Alabama, as majestic and splendid and bril- liant oratory, he related an incident that called forth cheers from the gal lery and aroused deep interest on the floor of the Senate. Mr. Mills was describing the cruelty of the Span iards and their habitual murder and Violation of women Then he drew this contrast:
 'sMr. President, while thinking of the slaughter of this girl, who at tempted to save her father, there comes up in my mind the recollection of an incident that occurred in Ala bama during our civil war. \ Colo mel of an Ohis regiment was in com mand of district in North Alabama, within whose lines the family of a Confederate officer resided. Some times .he bold rebel would slip through the lines, undiscovered, and visit his family. On one occasion

After much hard work and giving the company a big guarantee they have been in duced to return for one night. Seats on sale at Altschul's.

MONROE DOCTRINE SETTLED,
About the only laurel in the crown
Of the present administration, which is
noted for its miserable blunders in the
management of foreign affairs, is, that
England has been forced to acknowl-
edge the Monroe doctrine.
The United States has for years
chung to this rule Of right, but never
until last winter when the Venezuelan
question came Up was the issue SO
plainly made. 1t was the fiat refusal
by Lord Salisbury Of the request made
by the United States that the question
of boundary line in dispute between
England and Venezuela be submitted
to a board OF arbitrators, that brought
out the sharp rejoiner from the admin
istration. II had its effect and com.
PEELED the acknowledgment Of the
right which has been claimed by this
government for seventy years.

liant craftsmanship can not be esti.

THE GOVERNORsHIP.

Mr.. George III. Wallace and Mrs.
Wallace are in Santa Fe, and we are
informed will remain there during the
winter. As said before in these COL
umns, it is understood that MIR. Wal
lace is a candidate for governor of the
Territory under the incoming admins
tration. Inquiry develops the fact that
Pedro Perea, Of Berualillo, is a candi-
date and is being pushed by Delegate
Catron, but that is about all the sup
port he has, and it is claimed by many
republicans, that active opposition
against him will be the result OF his
candidacy. Ex-Governor Prince also
has hopes in that direction, and is be.
ing pushed by the silver republicans of
Dona Ana, Grant, Bernalillo, San
Miguel and other parts of New Mexico.
I. W. Collier, editor Of the Ration
Range, is also in the race and he has
some Ohio influence and considerable
local pull. Ex-Governor Prince is
working hard, and is trying to get the
church people Of the Protestant de-
nominations to endorse him, because
he is q strict member Of the Episcopal
church. Mr.. A. L. Morrison, of Santa
Fe, seems to have withdrawn from the
race, wanting something better. Gov
ernor Thornton's commission expires
or April 21st, 1897. but tle republican
leaders are anxious to get q change in
the Office as soon as Major Mckinley is
i%naugurated.
There seems to be considerable strife
between the politicians, and The Optic
thinks that between the several Terri
torial candidates, Mr.. Wallace will get
in. which will be a satisfactory thing to
the people of this city and the Terri
tory, after he becomes as well known
elsewhere as he is in Las Vegas.

wYoMrNs, WISCONSIN,, June 9Th, 1896
DR.. W1yiars' Ned Co., Schenectady, N. \.
Gentlemen Replying to your favor Of
recent date, l called on Mrs. Jane Culver,
of Wyoming, Wis, yesterday. had heard
much about her case before / went to see
her. She has 20 long been regarded by her
family and all her ~neighbors as q hopeless
invalid that her present state Of health Ia
nothing less than a marvel in this (Wyom'
ing valley.
For more than q year past, and up to the
month Of March last Mrs. Culver had lain
actually at the point of death. Her neigh.
bors and friends expected daily to be called
upon to perform the "last sad Offices for
her, and when they learned that she had
actually arisen from her bed and could "sit
up" it was felt that little less than a resur-
r~ection had happened in their midst.
Yet imagine the establishment when a
week or two later 1t was announced in the
valley that she could araik, and when
she was, at last, really able to meet and
shake hands with friends in the door, yard,
or upon the street, it was felt that truly o
miracle had been wrought in their midst.
] found Mrs. Culver, a pleasant faced, at
t~ractive little woman, about her household
work when | called on June 9Th. She was,
In fact, picking over gooseberries, and her
frst remark after greeting was that in all her
ffty-eight years she could not recall SO
'searly " a season for fruit and garden stuff
as the present. She talked freely of her long,
sad illness-the dreary track of pain and
weakness over which for twenty years her
body had been racked, and told with evident
happiness of her wonderful cure. "The truth
ISL she said, ~ was dead and am alive
again" And there was no lack ofenthusiasm
in her voice as she spoke of the sovereign
remedy which had wrought such wonder
work for her. She was surrounded by the
members Of her family, her husband daughter
and grandchildren, and Pink Pills was GER
tainly the burden of their happy converse
ton during my visit.
But her cure, after all, is best summed up
in her own simple and s~uccinct statement,
which she made in the hope of doing good
to others. .
Mrs. Culver is a woman of education and
refinement. Her husband was postmaster
at Wyoming during President Harrison's
administration. Among those Of their
neighhors who can further attest the facts in
her case are the present postmaster and his
wife, Mr.. and Mrs. Richard Dunstan, Mr..
and Mrs. c.. w. Parks, Mr.. and Mrs. Scion
Knickerbocker, and scores of others living
here In the town and valley of Wyoming.
p. ST. must confess that I had an idea
that patent medicine testimonials were mostly
fakes, manufactured in the good humored
spirit Of humbuggery which delights the
world at large. In this case which I have
looked up myself | have found at the first
trial a cure 90 astonishing that | have been
afraid to write the facts just as the actual
history of the case demanded, l have been
truly fearful lest ! should seem 10 everde

to the top of that tree quick. Albright
had managed to get behind a large
pile OF burnt and fallen timber, so the
bears could not see him. There they
stood within forty feet of him, shifting
the air and looking in his direction ;
presently they made a few turns and
started up the mountain, leaving our
crowd pretty we'll shaken up.

But after making sure the enemy was

weak, my hat gone, my clothes almost
torn off, and a few deep scratches on

Baker were not hurt, but were pretty
we'll scared. / asked A bright il he
still wanted to kill a bearP and ne said
that he had had all the bear hunt he
wanted, and that he neither wanted to
hunt them, or have them hunt him.
You mas think it strange that AL
bright did not shoot, but tho fact Is, il
he had shot and killed one, there were
seven more to take the dead ones

ourselves pretty lucky. VIZ found the
