OBEyED HIS D {
Refused the President Admission to the
Grand Army Camp.

BUFFALO, \. v, Aug. 27.-The presi-
dent Of the United states was refused
admission to the Grand Army camp
yesterday. although he had come at
the special invitation Of the veterans,
and everything was in readiness to re-
ceive him.
The incident proved one of great
modification to the Grand Army
leaders aud excited indignation among
the members of the local committee.
To the president at first it was a
tribe annoying. but a few inmates
after tue episode he was having a
hearty laugh over it and e~xcusing the
official who refused him entrance. by
saying that the man was perfectly
right to obey orders. no matter who de-
manded entrance. The reason for the
refusal was that the sentry had been
ordered To admit no carriage to the
camp.
Later the president wentto Cayugua
island, the site OF the pan-American
exposition. aud with a mallet ON which
his name was inscribed drove a stake
in the grass plot in the center Of the
island. Returning from the island the
president lunched with Frank Baird,
and then with Mrs. Mckinley, Gen.
and Mrs. Alger, Miss Alger and Mr..
Fred Alger, boarded Senator IIanna's
yacht for Cleveland.

A TROUBLESOME QUESTION.


PARIS, Aug. 26.-Premier Meline, ad-
dressing the delegates to the councils
general OF the department of the Seine
and the municipality of Paris. yester-
day. on the rise in the price of wheat,
declared hat he would submit the
question to the cabinet adding that he
would not hesitate to reduce the tariff
If the rise was genuine and not specu-
lative. This he continued, would need
careful investigation. Prices were al
ready beginning to fall aud promised
TO continue falling. The government.
he said, would do its utmost to reduce
the increase in price without sacrifice
ing the interests Of the Agricultural
classes.
The Jasper weekly courier. [volume] (Jasper, Ind.) 1858-1922, 1897-09-03


WASHINGTON. Aug. a6.-The assas
sination of President ldarte Borda, OF
Uruguay was not altogether u surprise
70 officials here, who have watched the
recent outbreaks in Uruguay. This
was the second attempt ON the presi
dents life, the former being made by
. crazy student name 1 Revecca. After
IL failed the United States minister
made . personal cali on President
Borda to convey the congratulations
of President Mckinley on the formers
escape.
The last mail advices received here
showed that the revolution mad broken
out afresh. the peace delegates from
the insurgents having given up the
hope Of securing peace and withdrawn
to Argentina
Further agitation was occasioned by
the reports that the government re
ceipts had shrunk 81. soc. 900 during the
year as q result of the revolution. The
last issue OF the Montevideo Times re-
ceived here, states that the president
remained away from the state house in
evident fear of his life. At the same
time q colorado" or junta OF those
seeking to overthrow the government
had established active operations at
the capital.
The assassination of the president
doubtless will bring the country to a
revolutionary crisis which has been
long impending. The revolution thus
far had been confined to the country
districts. where several extensive en-
gagements had been fought, the gov
eminent forces securing the advan-
tage.
There is no Uruguayan representa-
tive in Washington.
AT the time of Senior Borda's election
he belonged to the official party. and
was elected by a very narrow majority.
The people, it was said. were sadly
disappointed at the result. but order
and quiet were maintained. The lead
ing papers of Uruguay deplored the
election of Senior Borda. and declared
that it marked n reaction in the coun-
try's progress.
Later President Borda issued a proc
lamation to the effect hat his admin
istratlon would conduct the business
of the state in the interest of the whole
nation and that he would invite the
assistance of all political parties to that
end. This proclamation made a very
favorable impression.
An attempt was made to assassinate
h president on the afternoon OF
April 81 last. An unknown man met
President Borda on the street and shot
At him. The president escaped with
out injury. and the criminal was cap
tured.
The assassination of the president
occurred just as he was leaving the
cathedral where n te deum had been
sung. The assassin was arrested.

Nothing could be fairer, more philanthropic,
or carry more joy in ito wake than the offer
of T A. SlocuIn, M. c., OF 50 Pine street, New
York City.
Confident that he has discovered an
absolute cure for consumption and all put
m nary complaints, ard to make its great
merits known, he will send, free, three
bottles (the SlOcum new system OF medl lnel
to any reader of the River Falls TIMES
who is suffering from chest, throat ana
lung troubles or consumption.
He invites those DESTROYS of obtaining the
remedies to simply send him their express
and pOStoffice adreSS and receive in return
the three free bottles.
Already this EsneW scientific course OF
medicine has permanently cured thousands
of apparently hopeless cases.
He considers it his rel giOus duty-a duty
which he owes to humanity-tO donate his
infal.ible cure.
Offered freely, apart from its inherent
strength, is enough to commend ii, and
more 40 is the perfect confidence of the
great chemist making the offer.
Ee has proved consumption to be a durable
disease beyond any donbt.
There will be no mistake in sending-the
mistake will be in overlooking the Doctors

BIG RAILROAD WRECK.
Working Men Actually Cooked
Alive.
Five Dead and Others Fatally Burned.


Train No 40, west bound freight
on the Omaha line, ran into con-
strnction train which was backing
up from Hudson at rate of about
25 miles an hour. The accident
took place between North Wis
cunsin Junction and Hudson,
about one and half miles from
the latter place, and resulted IN
the death of four of the construc-
ton train crew who were burned
in the debris of the wreck which at
once caught fire, another was so badly
hurt that he died in a short time, and
two Others were so crushed that at
least one and probably both will soon
die. The cause of the accident seems
to have been misunderstanding OF
orders. There are two tracks where
the wreck occurred. One train should
have taken the west track and the
other the east, but for some reason
both trains took the east track with
the above terrible result. All the men
killed are reported to have large
families dependent upon them.
