The address of Hon. John <.
Cowen to the large assembly Of our
people, in the Central Opera House
on last Wednesday afternoon, was a
feast of reason seldom found or
heard in our growing town. 1t was
calm, yet decisive, it was ornate
and eloquent, yet logical and con-
vinciDg, an address that required
culture, experience and an innate
grasp and inteation for the good OF
his country and his fellow men. No
wonder, the people Of Baltimore and
of Maryland voice the sentiments he
SO nationally places before them. No
wonder, that the sturdy sons Of toll
on the B. & O. recognize and sus-
tain his practical reasoning in mat
ters pertaining to the country, for
whatever affects the country affects
that great artery of industry, trade
and commerce. He knows whereof
he speaks, and to all persons can
well point to the cross road sign and
say "Stop, look, listen! Your safe
ty is in it, and coutributary negli-
gence cannot be maintained. Mr..
Cowen is a man among men, and
few if any have any business with
him 10 matters of common sense dis
cussion. He was headlight Of III
formation here, did great good
among and for the people, and the
influence of his remarks took many
votes from Bryan, who is not his
peer in matters of discussion. We
hope lie will come agaiD.

FIREMEN'S FAIR.
Patronage Not What 1t Should
Fave Been,

The Firemen's Fair, which has
been going on in the Central Opera
House, closed last Saturday night. It
being the last night Of the fair, a large
crowd was in attendance, drawn there
by the desire to aid the firemen, to
spend a pleasant evening and to see
who would be the successful candi-
dates for the various articles. TWAS
the largest crowd present during
the fair, and all enjoyed themselves.
While the fair cannot be called q
failure, the patronage was not what
was deserved by the fire laddes.
This is an object that all the people
of our city should take an interest in,
and aid, whenever there is an oppor-
tuniiy to do so. in promoting its
welfare. With the exception of
Thursday and Saturday nights the
attendance was notup to the stand
ard and not what worthy cause
like that deserved. But the boys re-
turn thanks to those who did attend,
and to those who financially aided
them without attending. At eleven
o'clock on Saturday night Mr.. j.
w. Dodd auctioned off those articles
which Lad not been sold, from the
sale of which a considerable sum was
realized. After this was over, the
drawing for the oak bed room suite,
which was CHANGED off at the door,
took place, and Miss Fannie Shots
name appearing opposite to the num-
Der drawn, she was awarded the
suite. The money collected by the
candidates running for the bicycle
was then counted, and resulted as
follows: Joseph Lloyd, $55; Rufus
Caskey, SIT, and Mr.. Caskey re-
ceiyed the bicycle. The following
articles were received by candidates
who ran Independently:
Miss Mary Light, brass lamp and
stand; Miss Mamie Keyser. brass
lamp; Miss May Caskey, umbrella ;
Miss Nora Airhart, trunk; Mis-. Viii
liam Church, rocking chair; Miss

lege, lounge cushion; Mr.. Edward
Seckman, fireman's badge; Miss May

Miss Gertie College, silver knife and

In recent letter to lie mannfac-

the Spectator, Rushford, n. Y, says:
at may be a pleasure to youto know
the high esteem in which Chamber
lain's medicines a-e hsld by the peo-
pie OF your own State, where they
must be known. An aunt of mine,
who resides at Dexter, Iowa, was
about to visit me few years since,
and before leaving home wrote me,
asking if they were sold here, stating
if they we're not she would bring a
quantity with her, as she did not like
to be without them.' The medicines
referred to are Chamberlain Cough
Remedy, famous for its cures of
colds and Group; Chamberlain s
Pain Balm for rheumatism, lame
back, pains in the side and chest,
end Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy for bowel
complaints. These medicines have
been in constant use in Iowa for al
most a quarter of a century. The
people have learned that they are
articles of great worth and merit.
and unequaled by any other. They
