THAT Train.
ONLY Three Cars of Raw Re-
cruits Passed Through
Here Yesterday.

The train Of volunteers that passed
through the city yesterday afternoon,
did not come up to the expectations of
the small sized crowd that was waiting
at the station to greet the boys.
There were only three car loads
men, when it was expected 10y the rail
road company that there woaid be at
least seven. 1t is probable that the
remaining troops went TO Indianapolis
from Fort Wayne by some other route.
The three cars, which contained
about 200 youLg men, were switched
off at this point and attached to a spe-
cial engine which was waiting on a
siding and as soon as possible the train
was sent to Indianapolis. The men
appeared to be mostly raw recruits, as
only a few % them were uniformed.
They were enthusiastic and gave Il
number of yells from the ear windows.
The smallness of the crowd at the sta
ton is explained by the inelement
weather and the fact that their
coming had been very meagerly ad-
vertised, but as it was there were
about seventy-five men and boys who
stood in the rain and thanked their
lucky stars that they were not going to
Camp Mount on such q night.
The three cars were attached to the
regular afternoon G.. X. & |. passen.
ger train, drawn by large freight en-
CINE. and was nearly an hour late
arriving in this city.

And where is the place of under

Man knoweth not the price thereof;
Neither is it found in the land of the

The depth saith, IL is not in me:

II cannot be gotten for gold.
Neither shall silver be weighed 70,

1t cannot be valued with the gold OF

With the precious onix, or the sap

The gold and crystal cannot equal it.
Aud the exchange of it shall not be

No mention shall be made of coral,

For the price of wisdom Is above

The topaz of ETHIOPIA shall not equal
it;
Neither shall it be valued with pure

Discovered by a Woman.

Another great discovery has been
made and that, too, by lady in this
country. Disease fastened its clutches
upon her and for for seven years she
withstood its severest tests, but her
vital organs were undermined and
death seemed imminent. For three
months she coughed necessarily and
could not sleep. She finally discovered
a way to recovery by purchasing a
bottle of DIR. Kings New Discovery
for consumption, and was SO much re-
lieved on taking the first dose, that she
slept all night and with two bottles has
been absolutely cured. Her name is
Mrs Luther Lutz. Thus writes w.
C. Hamnick d Co. of Shelby, North
Carolina. Trial bottles at A. G. Luken
Il Co.'s drug store.
Regular size so and S1.00. every
bottle guaranteed.

seen nothing like 1t for more than
thirty wears that its coming has hurt
less than its apprehension. Especially
since the victory at Manila. which IN
iicated tue superiority of the Ameri-

stocks have advanced. the average of
prices for railroads So. 20 per shars.
The general condition of business b 8
materially improved. One days work
by the officers and men at Manila has
given many days work to thousands
Of people at home of whom they knew
nothing, and has place all American
industries and interests on stronger
footing for any conceivable future
The fact that gold is not used almost
exclusively between the treasury and
the clearing house indicates the entire
freedom ON apprehension about the
