Gentlemen-I might have broken
down sooner in the campaign about
Santiago if I had had time to realize
what was the matter with me before
the Spaniards surrendered.
God knows broke down soon enough
as it was, and it was as great surprise
to me as it was to the other boys who
knew me at home. But the Spaniards
kept us busy, when we were not busy
on our own account getting ready Iof
the big fight. That [ was a memb Der
of the Roosevelt regiment shall always
be proud, and the fights at Las Quasi
mas and at San Juan Hill will be things
to talk about for many a year.
But 1 would not have lived to talk
about them if I had not found some
thing to brace my nerves up again after
dysentery and slow fever. got so l
could hardly shoot, and felt like L did
not care whether I did or not.
I lost 20 pounds IL weight and lot
more than that in spirit, if you can
measure a fellows spirit that way. Half
a dozen Mauser bullets could not have
made a worse mess of me than the Gu
ban climate and the mud in the Santi-
ago trenches did. AS soon as found
I was sick and my nerves were all
gone hunted for a tonic. found it on
the way back north, when I got some of
the Paine's celery compound 1 saw

How it braced me up my picture will
show better than anything else. 1t is
the greatest nerve restorer that can be
made, for it brings all the force there is
in man to the surface.

Postum in such q way that it is taste
less and unpalatable. Everyone who
has at any time had a genuine cup of

may depend upon it that anyone who
says they do not like Postum, has never
really had good cup of it. The whole
secret is In the boiling. It must be
boiled long enough to bring out the
flavor.

While the influence of the election and
of unfavorable weather has been such
as to temporarily reduce the volume of
current trade the innate strength OF
the trade situation is shown by
the very satisfactory reports received
as to bank clearings, railroad earnings,
prices and other measures of business
DEVELOPMENT. AS is well known for
some time past, the iron trade has been
rather bare of new business and the de-
sire to see the elections over before new
contracts were made has been frequent
" expressed. It is therefore signif1-
cant feature that this week more inqui-
~ is reported for pig iron, and although
new orders are not as yet numerous,
this fact itself is an encouraging one
particularly as a further gain in pro-
auction during October is reported In
the steel trade there is rather more
anxiety for new business and some price
shading to secure it is reported The
mainstay of the allied industries at
present is undoubtedly the immense
export demand which is taxing the

The Missouri Pacific Pays Its 1898
Atchison County Taxes in Full

Atchison, Nov. 12.-The Missouri Pa
cific has paid its taxes for 1898 in Atch-
ison county, in full. The amount was
$40, 3O4. So early a payment of taxes by
a railroad is unusual
Big tax payers generally wait until
the last day The Missouri Pacific could
have paid half the amount December
20. and the other half next June with
out penalty. By paying all now it gets
the usual rebate, but it could have
waited until December 20 and received
the same reduction.

Wentworth Cottage
Dedicated at the State Reform Sch

Dedicated at the State Reform School
At the State Reform School, Portland,
Wednesday afternoon, May 18th, the sec
ond cottage erected for the accommodation
OF family of 80 boys was dedicated under
the name of Wentworth cottage, in honor of
Eben Wentworth.
Hon. A. Little, president of the board of
trustees, presided, and the address of dedi-
cation was delivered by Hon. Fred Atwood
OF Wlnterport, who gave an interesting talk
on the methods and achievements of the in
stituton. First he briefly review ed the his
tory of the school, spoke of the gift of the
farm by the city OF Portland to the State in
1850, and the erection in that year of what
now constitutes the main building Its first
superintendent was W. R. Lincoln. Every
boy sent there in the early days was locked
into cell at night. In 1874 when the pres
ent superintendent became connected with
the institution, he had had half the cells
abolished and the dormitory system tried
as an experiment. The next year the re
naming cells were removed, and since then
the aim has been to reform, rather than to
punish the youth sent there. Mr. Atwood
said that 2,264 boys have been graduated
from the school, and the present number
connected with it is 1872. Of 6S boys sent
out on the last parole, favorable reports
have come from 50; two We're reported
fair and the other six have not been re-
portet. He highly commended the cottage
pan anu pldlStu bile management OF the
school. Col. Atwood then paid high and
feeling tribute to the memory of the late
Eben Wentworth, once superintendent of
the school. 1t was during his adminstra-
ton that the cells gave place to dormitories
and the idea of punishment was changed to
that of reformation. "And now" said Col.
Atwood, by the direction of the trustees I
dedicate this building as Wentworth Cot
tage." This announcement was received
with applause, heartily participated in by
the boys.
Rev. John O'Dowd, Hon. E. P. Spofford,
Hon. George M. Seiders, Mr.. Snow, grad
uate, Levi Turner and superintendent Went
worth spoke.
Trustees Albion Little and M. F. King of
Portland, Ansel Briggs of Auburn, Lucius
G. Morse Of Pittsfield and Fred Atwood Of
Winterport were present, as were the fol-
lowing members of the governors council
E. Dudley Freeman of Yarmouth, Edward
S: Marshall of York, Roswell G. Boothby
of East Livermore, Elmer P. Spofford Of
Deer Isle, Henry W. Mayo of Hampden and
Voranus Coffin of Harrington. Most of
these and several members and ex-members
OF the legislature, were accompanied by
ladies. Owing to a press of official business
Governor Powers was unable to be present.
There are now 1872 boys in the school aad
GA out on probation. A still further extern
sion of the family system is looked for in
the near future.

Dun Review: Growing accustomed

fl pm probabilities of evil, and finding the
nation moving along steadily in it's In
duHties, people are grasping the idea that
it is throwing away some months OF active
and profitable life to wait until war clouds
have passed. Western prosperity has so
greatly overbalanced timidity of eastern
capital that actual business done increases :
railroad earnings promise better for Nav
than month ago for April, and payments
through clearing houses for the week in
MAJ show a gain of 500 per cent. over
last year, and 10 per cent. over 1892.
while a month ago the increase over last
year was 1876, and compared with 1892
there was a decrease of 7.2 per cent.

weeks because of hostilities have now

daily tended his flock in the pas

lamb was about to die, II spoke in
verse to the shepherd, telling him
that its spirit would remain with
him always in the form of a fairy
and that through its favor he was
to become a great artist. At all
events, the prophecy came true, for
