win Care for the Old confederates.

The Atlanta Constitution of Nov. 20
says: THE Confederate Reunion Asso-
citation was formed in Atlanta Yesterday.
In prompt way the business men of At
lanta have taken hold of the movement
to entertain the thousands of old veter-
ans who will come here next summer,
and the enthusiasm and interest of YES
terday's meeting proved that Atlanta is
going to exert herself to wonderful de-
gree. There was not much sentiment of
the war nature yesterday. 1t was ses-
sion called by General Evans for bust
ness purpose and there was business
swing to the movements of the organiza-
ton.
This organization will be the machine
by which all affairs pertaining to the re-
union will be turned. 1t will be the ac-
tive agent through which the reunion will
be managed. Officers have been elected
and everything put in shape for most
thorough organization. This is the first
definite step taken by the citizens of At
lanta looking to the reunion. Several
weeks ago the Confederate commanders
OF the different camps in the State met
here and discussed the method of secur-
ing the presence of every Confederate
veteran in the State. The action at the
citizens meeting yesterday proved the
spirit of Atlanta. 1t means that the vet
Grams will be taken care of. and that the
statements of those who claimed that this
city was not in sympathy with the Con-
federate movement is totally untrue"

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to
be incurable. For n great many years doctors
pronounced it local disease. and prescribed
local remedies, aud by constantly falling to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to be Il
constitutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. HILLS Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. j. Cheney Il Co., Toledo,
Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally in doses from
10 drops 10 teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on

The incorporation of the Greenbrier
Railroad Company, of West Virginia,
has brought to light the plans for an en-
terprise organized byNewY ork capitalists,
which has for its object the development
of the coal fields of this State. The cap
italists interested have purchased from
John T. McGraw, of Grafton, tract of
100000 acres of wild land in the north
western part of West Virginia, for which
they paid $500, 600. In addition to this
tract, they have obtained control of some
smaller ones, making their total holdings
nearly half million acres. Rich beds
of coal underlie these lands and the min
ing of this coal will soon begin. The
Greenbrier road is to run from the Ches-
peake and Ohio Road at the mouth of
Greenbrier river to point within ten
miles of the lands recently purchased.
Mining engineers report that the coal in
the recently acquired lands is the finest
in the State.

To Cure Mr. Rouss' Kindness -MdrttH I'm
touched Cranks by the Million.

The attempts to cure Mr.. Charles
Broadway Rouss of blindness continues,
and his substitute, James F. Martin, has
undergone all sorts and kinds of tests, but
nothing has accomplished a cure. A
natural physician, DIR. Jenneseh, of
Berlin, came to try for the million dollar
prize. as also did Frau Bertha. of Austria,
who proposes to be put to sleep by ilyP-
notist, and then she will tell what ails the
patient and will write a remedy From
Cana da comes girl of fourteen, who has
the supposed advantage of being the sew
enth daughter of the seventh daughter,
and who transmits her healing power to
the patient through the medium of
feather, with which she tickles him.
Another woman rolled Martin on cold
slab and gave him an interval bath of
thirty gallons of water per day, for three
consecutive days, but it was more than
he could stand. E. A. Weatherby, and
B. W. Wolverton, of Pierce, Kansas, adj
ministered remedy, which they claimed
cost them $4,000 to prepare. When the
men discovered that the remedy proved
of no avail, they were almost heartbroken.
There was ample evidence that the liquid
preparation used cost the two men $780,
900. More than 1000 persons have had
Martin under treatment-among them
philosophers, so called divine healers.
spiritualists, hypnotists, religiousfanatics.
christian scientists, good men and women
of various religious denominations, fol-
lowers of Buddha and Confucius, and the

Trouble in the Camp.

That all is not smooth sailing in the
Republican camp, and that Congress
men and Senators sometimes get them
selves in tight places by endeavoring to
throw blame upon each other, will be
seen by the two following letters given to
the press by would-be postmaster of
Fairmont in this State:
Elkins. w Va, Oct a3-
Dear Poweli:-Yours of the goth at hand.
Dayton spent last night here. Most of
the time was given to the Fairmont post
Office contest To be frank and confden-
tial, he felt inclined to appoint Arnett.-
favored your appointment, although the
matter was not in my hands. AS a COM
promise we took Howard Fleming. l
told him before the conference that l
would sustain him in whatever he did
because the matter was in his hands and
felt that should stand b: our congress
man. This is the best J. could do. An
early settlement of the case was desirable
for many reasons. You know you urged
this, and you know how elttoward you
from the beginning. There are some 9TH
er features in this case | would like to
talk with you about when we meet.
Very Truly Yours,
S. B. ELKINs.
N. B. You know the matter was in
Dayton's hands from the beginning, and
had to sustain him in his decision.
ELKINs.
Phi1lippi, w. Va. Oct. 20.
Mr.. A L. Heffner, Fairmont, W. Va.
My. Dear Heffner:-I took all the pa
pers in the Fairmont postoffice up to
Elkins by arrangements made with the
Senator on Wednesday last, and we then
on the presidential offices in
this district that had not yet been deter
mined upon. Fairmont caused more
trouble than all the others put together,
and we had long discussion over it, and
at one time it seemed that we must come
to dead lock on its account. The prop
osition submitting the matter to an
election was not satisfactory to Senator
Elkins He had heretofore favored Pow
ell, but when he came to the letter of
Gov Pierpoint and the petition of Elem
ing, signed by 40 voters of that district
bearing that name, he insisted on Elem
ing's election. A. G. DAYTON.
