A SICK WOMAN
Should Consult the Best Physician PossiDl,

Should Consult the Best Physician Possible.
If all the sick mothers, invalid daugh-
ters and diseased sisters in this broad
land would write to DIR. Hartman when
failing to find relief elsewhere, no pen
could describe the benefit that would
follow. There are so many women,
especially married women, who drag
themselves YEARLY around from year
to year without any particular disease,
and yet miserable beyond description.
They ache and tremble and throb, grow
ing more nervous, tired and debilitated
every day. For this class of sufferers
Pe-ru-na is the most perfet remedy in
existence. 1t relieves, it soothes, it
quiets, it strengthens, and no tired,
Overwolked woman in the land should
be without Pe-ru-na in the house for a
single day.
Those wishing a complete description
of female diseases, their causes and
cures, should send their address to
The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
Company, Columbus, Ohio, for a free
copy of "Facts and Faces" a book
showing what DR.. Hartment's free
treatment has done for multitude Of
invalid women.

Cost of the Convention.

The convention will be composed of
ninety-nine delegates, and as each dele
gate is only to receive 81 per day for
board and no per diem, and actual
travelling expenses for one trip going
and coming from home, and the con-
vention is only to be allowed to draw
pay for board for seventy-fve days, it
is an easy matter to calculate the cost
of the convention. Each delegate will
receive for the seYenty-tiye days only
$3.50 on account of board, and there be-
ing ninety-nine delegates, the entire
cost for board will be 50 x $15O, or $14, :
$50. The total mileage of the ninety
nine members of the general assembly
of 1895, for one trip each way, was 81,
998 miles. The actual cost of trans
portation being three cents each way,
would make the mileage of the dele
gates cost 81, 99S, or $685. 81. There
fore the board and mileage of the dele
gates would be $14, $50 plus $959. 81, or
$15,809. Allowing .$4, 190.06 for clerk
hire and other expenses, the total cost
of the convention would not exceed
$4,000. The total cost of the constitu-
tional convention of 1870, including the
cost of holding the elections and al
the expenses connected with the con
vention was $97, 572. 81, as treasurer E.
B. Craig informs us. The delegates to

The Richest Man Living

Rich men seem lately to bemore than
ever in the public eye. With Gould
and sage quarling. Havemeyer and
Searles in danger of imprisonment,
Russell Sage in the role of an oppressor
of his relatives, and others in various
lights, it will not be long before the
people become surfeitcd. John D.
Rockefeller, the Standard Oil magnate,
comes to the front with the others as a
man who in five months has made Sal, =
O00,0 900, values in oil stock held by him
having risen to that extent. Rockefel-
ler's wealth is now estimated at $3.50, :
900, 900, which places him at the head
of the rich men of the world. What it
will amount to if he lives twenty years
is problematical.

0fiicehOlders' Opposition.

1t is stated by those who are opposed
to constitutional convention that the
justices of the peace throughout the
state would oppose it. Weare at loss
to understand why they should. No
one advocating new constitution pro-
poses to abolish or vacate the offices of
the magistrates. Some have advocated
the propriety of permitting each coun-
tN by popular vote, to determine
whether it will adopt the commissioner
system or adhere to the old county court
system in the management of county
affairs, but this, if adopted, does not in
terfere with the office of magistrate in
the districts. And if the township sys-
TEN is adopted, it would rather have
the effect to dignity the Office of magis-
trate in the local township. -Ex.

century, One hundred and one years
ago this state was admitted into the
union as the sixteenth member in the
great family of American common
wealths. 1t was a welcome addition to
the national household-a community
young, strong and sturdy, with an
honored and heroic ancestry, with fond
anticipations, not only of its founders
but faith in its success on the part of
far-seeing and sagacious statesmen in
all parts Of the country, l am justified
in saying that these anticipations have
been grandly realized, that the presen
of this community of STERLING worth is
even brighter than prophets Of the past
had dared to forecast it.
"The builders of the state, who had
forced their way through the trackless
forests of this splendid domain, brought
with them the same high ideals and
fearless devotion to home and country
founded on resistance to oppression
which have everywhere made illustrious
the Anglo-American name. Whether
it was the territory Of Virginia or that
of North Carolina, mattered little to
them They came willing and eager to
fight for independence and liberty, and
in the war of the revolution were ever
loyal to the standard of Washington.
When their representatives served in
the colonial assembly Or North Carolina,
they chose-for the first time in our
country, so far as l know-the great
name of Washington for the district in
which they lived.
"You have done wisely in exhibiting
your resources to your own people and

feet in the air and alight in safety upon

made by A. W. Barnard, of the airship
yesterday. The awe-inspiring spectacle
was witnessed by the many people, and
intense excitement was caused when it
was seen that the airship was collaps-

ship had collapsed without ascending q

Married In a Sick Bed.

One day last week in Louisville, Ky,
the marriage of Mr.. Phil Levy, of Hen
derson, and Miss Hattie Sicklis took
place at the home of the brides mother
on, Mrs. Serena Sickles, 233 East Jacob
street. The ceremony was performed
by Rabbi Moses. The bride for the
past ten days had been suffering from
appendicitis. An elaborate wedding
had been planned, but instead the nup-
tials were performed under sad cere-
monies. Lying in bed, too weak to
raise her her head, the bride responded
to her VOWS. The groom was seated
beside her. In that part of the Jewish
rites where the cup of wine is drunk by
the couple, the bride could not raise
her head to hold the cup, and at the
suggestion of Rabbi Moses, her moth
er partook of it. Only relatives were
present. A wedding supper was served
the guests. The groom is a prominent
merchant of Henderson, where the
young couple will make their home as
soon as the bride is restored to health.

GOVERNOR TAYLOR SPEAKS.

Governor Taylor, in welcoming the
president and all who accompanied him
spoke of the past and present condi-
TOMS of the south, saying
"In this land of battlefelds and monu-
ments, in this land of memories touch
ing as the soldiers last tear on.the white
bosom of his manhood's pride, in this
land of beauty and of sorrow, where
the white tents of armies once shroud-
ed the hills, new conditions have been
quiet in quarter of a century and this
splendid industrial exposition, which
is prophecy of our greater power in
the future, now blossoms like beauti-
full flower on the track of war, and is q
token of external peace and brother
hood between the two sections.
Tennessee clasps hands with Ohio
today and the north and the south are
one and inseperable. Mason and Dix
on's line is still there, but, thank God,
it is no longer the open mouth of death
which once swallowed up the best and
bravest sons of the nation. Time has
closed its bloody lips, and now it is the
red scar of honor across the breast Of
of the republic, which marks the unity
of our once divided country.
"We great our guests with the ardent
hope that every hour of their mingling
with our people may be as sweet as a
song and delightful as glass Of spark
ling wine.
II congratulate my state and the
south and the whole country upon the
fact that the ruler of the greatest ma
tion in the world, accompanied by the
first lady of the land and by members
of his cabinet and others who are dis
tinguished in the councils of the nation,
prompted by their zeal for the happi-
ness of the people and the development
of their wealth have stolen away from
the patriotic pilgrims who still linger
in Washington pining for the presi-
dents autograph, to listen to the music
of southern progress and see the saliva
tion of the Lord.
II pledge them the honor of Tennes-
see that while they remain in our bor-
ders the tariff question shall be outlaw
ed by our hospitality and the money
question shall be strangled by our cour-
tesy. And when they depart from us,
we will pin upon the lapels of the Presi-
dent and each one Of his party, sweet
