IN MADISON COUNTY.
The Best Crop of Hay in Many Years-A
Refreshing Rain.

ne btst tEop VI Iha ." "
Refreshing Rain.
Snecial Correspondence of the Standard.
Virginia City. July IA general rain
storm passed over the county Tuesday.
Rain began falling late Monday night
and continued until late Tuesday after
noon. Aside from those who were un-
fortunate enough to have hay cut and
lying on the ground. the rain was well
coined, the excessive heat which we
have had during the past week having
so dried up the ground that in a short
time the hills would have been quite
barren. For years past the ranges
have not been in such splendid condi-
ton for the maintenance of stock. The
feed has grown this summer in abund-
ance and the cattle, horses and sheep
are i'm the pink of condition. The far
mers report that a larger hay crop will
be harvested this year han in any
previous year in the history of the
county. In fact, vegetation of all kinds
is in the finest shape possible.
The insanity commission OF this
county sat his week and the case of
John Metzler. who was arrested in
Pony by Under Sheriff Summers
last week, came up, and after a trial it
was decided by the commission that the
man was not a fit subject for the insane
asylum, and yet should not be left run
hing at large; so 1t was decided to send
him to his relatives in California at the
expense of the county, this being con-
sldered the cheapest name to get rid
of the charge. Metzler is a young man
about 20 years of age, robust and
healthy, but weak about the brain. 1t
was thought by the commission that hs
would always be a public charge.

THE ORIGINAL old GLORY"
How Our Flag Came to BE Called by Tn

How Our Flag Came to BE Called by That
Name.
From the Boston Globe.
Our flag was named Old Glory In
1881 by a Salem. Mass, skipper named
william Driver. He was at that time
captain Of the brig Charles Doggett.
Captain Driver was a successful deep
sea sailor, and was preparing the brig
for a voyage to the Southern Paci6c.
The story is told by the compiler of
the genealogical memoir of the Driver
family, Harriet Ruth (Waters) Cooke.
Just before the brig left Salem a
young man at the head of a party Of
friends saluted Captain Driver on the
deck of the Doggett, and presented him
with a large and beautifully made
American flag. 1t was done up In stops.
and when 1t was sent aloft and broke
out to the air Captain Driver chris
tened IL "Old Glory" He took II to
the South Pacific. n years after.
when old age forced him to leave the
sea, he treasured the flag.
Captain Driver removed to Nashville.
Tenn. in 1887. and died there in 1886.
Previous TO the outbreak of hostilities
between the North and South. Old
Glory was flung to the breeze every
day from the window of Captain Dri-
ver's Nashville house, but when the
bullets began to zip and the odor Of
gunpowder to taint the air, the old flag
had 10 be secreted.
1t was kept out OF sight inside a
great bed comfortable until Feb. q,
1862, when B~rigadier General Nelson's
wing of the union army appeared IN
Nashville, and Captain Driver present.
ed It to the general to be hoisted on
the capitol 1t was run up. Captain
Driver himself doing the hosting. He
watched 1t through the night. and a
heavy wind coming UP. he took II
down and sent a new flag up in Its
place.
The original Old Glory was beginning
to ribbon. The second flag owned by
Captain Driver was given 10 the 0hiS
Sixth when that regiment left Nash
vile for home. 1t was placed In ths
rear of a baggage wagon. where a mul'
nosed 1t out and devoured II.
The original Old Glory was pre-
served, and after the death OF Captain
Driver. in 1856, IL was presented by tn
compiler OF the Driver memoir to tn
Essex institute. at Salem, where
may now be seen.

The above map has been carefully
compiled from United States documents
by the Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
Company of Columbus, Ohio. The fig
ures were taken from the latest mortal
statistics published by the government
and entirely agree with the archives
kept at the Hartman Sanitarium.
The map is made In four shades. The
lightest shade shows the States which
have the lowest per cent. Of deaths due
to catarrhal diseases. In these States
very close to AZ per cent. of all deaths in
1890 were due to catarrhal diseases
That Is to say, over four out Of every
ten deaths were from catarrhal affec-
tons.
In the States Of next darker shade the
per cent. varies from 40 to IS. In the
next darker shade, 45 to 40 per cent. OF
the whole number of deaths resulted
from catarrhal diseases. In the darkest
shade we have indicated. the States in
which over so per Cent, or one half or
more, of all the deaths We're directly
traceable to catarrh as the cause.
AS many people die from catarrhal
affections as all who die from accident
from contagious diseases, from hered-
itary diseases, and all other causes ad.
ded together. Smallpox has its terrors
and yellow fever its scares, but these
are slight affairs compared to the NOR
tality Of catarrhal diseases.
This nation has got to confront the
fact that catarrh has become national
curse. Catarrhal diseases threaten the
life of our people. Over one-half of the
people suffer from some form or degree
of catarrh. Fully thirty-fve million
people are personally interested in the
discovery Of q radical catarrh cure.
A great many remedies for temporary
iaf
time, such as sprays, snuffs, creams and
other local applications, but as rule
the medical profession has little or no
enthusiasm in the treatment of catarrh.
It is generally pronounced by them to
be incurable. It therefore created a
great sensation in medical circles when
DR.. Hartman announced that he had de-
yised compound which would cure ca
tarrh permanently. The remedy was
named Pe-ru-na, and in short time be-
came known to thousands of catarrh
sufferers north, south, east and west.
Letters testifying to the fact that Pc
ru-na is radical cure for catarrh began
to pour in from IL directions. Thous-
ands Of such letters are on file in the Of
ing Company. These letters are not
used for publication except by the ex-
press wish of the writer. A pamphlet
filled with such letters will be sent to
any address free.
Pe-ru-na cures catarrh, chronic and
acute. About this there can be no ques-
tion.. Everybody admits it. The only
question THAT can be raised is whether
the cures remain permanent. A few of
the many people who were cured years
ago will be asked to speak on this point.
Anyone doubling. the genuineness of
any letter can easily become satisfied by
writing to the address under each one.

Neakley, Birmingham, and Judge w. j.
Wood, of Florence, were all present except
the latter
A number of other gentlemen were called
in and participated in the discussion This
conference adopted resolutions advising the
work to be carried on, taking the question
OK negro suffrage as the main issue, and
Civ i4g the people guarantee that the
general provisions of the present constitu-
ton on the subject of taxation shall be pre-
served and the limitations in their essential
features remain unchanged
1t was the opinion of all that reform of
the suffrage is the paramount issue, and
the wisdom of the convention will insure
protection on all secondary issues. Letters
were read from Senator John T. Morgan
and many other prominent men from all
sections of the state indorsing the meas
ure and rendering service for the work.
A member of the conference said tonight:
1.-The object lesson of North Carolina has
been enough. Many men who opposed the
convention two years ago are now openly
for 1t, and assurances of support from
many who have been classed as populists
were received"

Catarrh of one or more of the pelvic

permanent cure for these cases can be
expected unless the cause is removed.
Pe-ru-na cures catarrh wherever located.
Pe-ru-na has become favorite remedy

cures are therefore permanent.
