that a woman who had taken laudanum
was very i'll. The response was prompt
and though the distance was over three
miles, 1t was made i'm less than twelve
minutes. Mrs. Harvey was found to be
thoroughly under the influence Of the drug
and in a dangerous condition. He both
applied the electric battery and used other
drugs to counteract the effect OF the poi
son. She was finally brought around to a
safe condition, and was left in the hands
of friends.
Mrs. Harvey told Dr. Brown that she
took the drug to quiet her nerves. She is
a widow, with two or three little children,
who are i'm the country Friends Of hers

ter on Saturday that contained tidings

last regiment marched by. The streets
along the line OF march were lined with
enthusiastic people. who cheered and APP
plauded the soldiers, each regiment SEEM
ingly getting its full share Of applause.
The First Wisconsin Regiment. which
is to be sent home to be mustered out,
was excused from the parade, and was
the only one that did not appear.
COLONEL BRYAN.

command of the Third Nebraska Regi-
ment, received a continuous ovation all

lance carried good many men back to
camp. SO far as reported, however, there
were no serious effects as the result OF
the parade.
The soldiers made a splendid appear
ance in their Khaki trousers and blue
shirts. All carried their ponchos as well,
