A Brilliant Fraud.

A small weekly magazine was started
here II years ago by two hustling young
men. One was editor, the other "writel
and paster." They clipped, extracted
and rewrote. An advertising agent was
employed on commission of rs pei
cent, and it was a caution the way he
filled up the pages with black type and
cuts Some contracts were made for q
month, some for three months, some
for a year. The only cash in advance
was half Of the commission, which was
paid as soon as the contract was turned
in.
Prosperity peeped from its pages The
magazine rapidly grew fat. In the Sec
ond week the American News company
ordered 1900 copies Money flowed
out like corn from hopper and not a
cent came in. The writer and pastor
went around at the end of the month to
collect from the 80 day advertisers and
what do you suppose happened? He fail
ed to find one! Every advertisement was
fraud. There were no such names, no
such businesses, no such addresses as
the agent brought in for publication.
He happened to have an engagement in
New Jersey on that Hateful day and
never has been seen since. Contracts
supposed to be worth $4,000 were not
worth a cent. The magazine died.

Field Day.

When it was first proposed 10 hold q
Field Day for the benefit of our gallant
boys of Company E, it was not expected
that it would be more than local affair,
and that with good weather few hun
dred dollars might be secured for the
company. But the suggestion has
spread like wild fire, so to speak, and
from every section Of the State comes
the message that delegations are coming
to join the loyal citizens of the granite
city in making thir first peace jubilee in
the State one of the grandest affairs of
the kind which the Commonwealth ever
witnessed. If favored with good weat-
her there is little doubt. but what the
receipts will more than equal the ex-
pectations of the most sanguine of the
promoters. Now that every class of
our citizens are marching together to
make it the most eventful day in the
history OF Barre let us all do our part
for the boys who have suffered for us in
the miserable camp of Chickamauga.
THE TELEGRAM takes this opportunity
in behalf of the Boys for whom the day
i, to be observed, Of thanking all who
in any way are helping along the
venture, and while there are "black
sheep" in every flock, and always some
man who unless they can rule, will try
to ruin, yet the most hustling citizens
are identified with the movement, and
unless every sign fails, September 9TH
is sure to be the red letter day of the
present war 80 far as Barre is concerned.
Hats off to Company +, and let us all
suspend business for Field Day.

Securing q Luuatic.

In one of the most fashionable dis.
tricts Of Paris mock marriage was re-
Gently planned for the purpose of secur-
ing rather dangerous lunatic. An at
tractive young person named Mile. De-
laplune was sitting i'll her boudoir the
other day in a house situated in a
street off tho Boulevard st. German.
Suddenly ring came to the door, and
one of her servants, having opened it,
ushered in we'll dressed man looking
like superior sort Of valet. He told
Mile Delaplume that he had letter
from one Of her friends, countess, and
as the young woman put her hand out
to receive the missive the stranger
seized her fingers, pressed them to his
lips, and then, sinking on his knees,
made passionate declaration of love
and offered to marry her.
Mile. Delaplume saw by the man s
eyes that he was dangerously mad, and,
fearful Of a tragedy, she accepted his
offer with apparent calmness. Then she
invited the strange visitor to the may
or's Office in order to have the nuptial
knot tied. The man accompanied her
with alacrity to the establishment in
question, where a secretary, informed
of the real state Of affairs, pretended to
read the civil marriage regulations.
The mock bridegroom was then taken
by detective to the police depot under
the delusion that he was bound for a
pastry cooks there to give an order for
sumptuous wedding breakfast. The
man was, it appears, formerly employ
ed as a valet by one of Mile. Delap-
lume's friends. Letter.

In q Buddhist Nunnerv.

Sir Charles Gordon's Recollections
of Thirty-nine Years In the Army"
contains this anecdote: ''In 1860, at
Tien- tsin, the two Gordons, when seek
ing for hospital sites, came across a
Buddhist nunnery. Despite the warn.
ings of one of the inmates, who appear
ed in boys clothes. they entered tho
building and found that the inmates all
wore male clothing. The Buddhist
women were greatly shocked at the in
trusion.
"'Our regret, says Sir Charles was
real. Explanations were exchanged We
were informed that the community
within adopted male costume as an in
dication that they not only renowned
the world, but with it the emblems Of
their SEX We were received by the
lady superior, tea and cakes offered to
and partaken of by us. We were then
permitted to visit the private chapel
and finally we parted from the re-
ligieuses on the best of terms"

ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for one purpose,
namely, Il receptacle for the urine, and as
such il Is not liable to any form of disease ex-
cept by one or two ways. The first way is
from imperfect action of the kidneys. The
second way is from careless local treatment of
other diseases.
CHEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is
the chief canse of bladder troubles. So the
womb, like the bladder, was created for one
purpose, and if not doctored too much is not
liable to weakness or disease, except in rare
cases. 1t is situated back of and very close to
the bladder, therefore any pain, disease or in
convenience manifested In the kidneys, back,
bladder or urinary passage is often, by mis-
take, attributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort. The error is easily
made and may be as easily avoided. TO find
out correctly, set your urine aside for twenty
four hours; sediment or settling indicates
kidney or bladder trouble. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of DIR. Kihner's Swamp
Root, the great kidney, and bladder remedy
s soon realized. If you need medicine you
shouh have the hest. At druggists fifty cents
and one dollar. You may have sample bot

Reports of sickness at Camp Thomas
have been greatly exaggerated. While
there are all told about 1900 sick sol.
diers in the hospitals at this park only
about 500 of this number are pronounce (
to he typhoid fever cases, and a major
lty or these are not of a violent type
This statement is borne out by the
death rate. For instance, at the Stern.
berg hospital, where there are 40 pa.
tlents, the death rate has been one and
one half per day, or three patients los
every two days.
Immediately upon the opening Of the
Sternberg hospital on the 10Th inst. all
the most viru!ent cases of typhoid feve,
were transferred to it from the division
and regimental hospitals. Instead OF
deaths by the Wholesale, a visit to the
sternberg hospital reveals that large
majority of the patients are improvin.
and that as rule they are cheerful and
hopeful. In ten days 80 patients have
so far recovered as to be sent home on
furlough.
Major Giffen, who constructed tn.
Sternberg hospital and who as the sur.
geon in charge is watching CLOSELY aft.

what it is accomplishing. The hosnital

THE Y[CATAN ARRIVES
Another Transport at Montauk In
Bad Condition.
TEN MEN DIED ON BOARD.
Awful Suffering For Want OF Food-A"o
Hundred Of Seventh Infantry ILL.,
The Regimental Surgeon Re
garled as . Hero.

Camp Wikoff, Montauk Point, N. Y.
Aug. 29.-The transport to arrive her'
in the worst condition was the 1uca
tan, which has come into port al.
landed her men. There is long stor'
connected with her trip from Santiago
of the sufferings of the men in the SD
companies of the Seventh infantry; o.
the hunger which consumed the wei
and the knawing at the vitals OF tne
fever stricken, all because some one II
authority was criminally careless ir
sending the vessel on her way without
enough food to last the voyage and
lack of medical supplies for those who
were i'll.
This simple sentence tells as we'll as
columns the log Of her awful voyage
Ten died on board.
Seven died far out at sea and their
bodies were cast into the peaceful sum-
mer seas; three died while the YucataL
rode at anchor in the land locked bay
here.
Awful Suffering.
There were 200 i'll on board and the
vessels galley contained no food ron
them. Even the well disgustedly
turned from the army rations supplied
the sick simply starved, uncomplaln-
ingly, it is true: but the pitiful gancen
from their eyes, could they have seen
by those high in authority In Washing
ton and elsewhere, would haunt them
in their sleep.
There is one man who is praised by
these regulars and only one. He is the
regimental surgeon, r. Heming Jones.
If he does part his name in the middle
the soldiers say that is his only fault.
The DOCTOR they say, saved scores OF
lives at Santiago by his work. After the
fall of the city and when the regiment
was back in the hills DR.. Jones wa'
surgeon, nurse and attendant. He min
istered to a hundred day at one time,
and the soldiers say they do not Sc !
how he lived through it. He was with
out medicine half the time.
Ou. ht to lie Promoted.
This man, the boys say, ought to be
at the head of the armys medical bu-
reau and then fewer lives would be
lost.
A pretty story is told of the doctors
interest in his work and the men. One
day there were eleven deaths in the
camp, and no one had needed his APP
peals for medicine. He went to the
commanding officer and said he was
going to Santiago and would brin.;
back medicines or he would know why.
He started out on the run and camu
back on the run, and he had the med
icines, although he refused to tell how
he got them.
This regiment has the record for
Deaths having 100 killed and dead from
disease.
Those who could walk came ashore
today and went to the detention camp
