proper attention to his duties, haye
prevented the defalcation. The
charges are wholly and entirely false
and there is absolutely no shadow of
excuse for making any of them. Mr..
Dunbar was county clerk. There is
no means by which the coun-
ty clerk can ascertain how much the
county treasurer actually has on hand;
his records will show and Mr. Dun
bars records did show exactly the
amount of money Ward should haye
had on hand from time to time, but
Wards books and reports were all
right and showed the true amount he
should have had on hand; the trouble
was, he did not actually have on hand
amount his books and reports charged
him with, and which he reported as
having. OF course the county clerk
could not know this and it has never
been charged or whispered, to my
knowledge by any person, Republican,
Democrat or PopuliSt, in this county,
that Dunbar was in any manner what

Anent the issue thus raised as to where
and when the first blood of the Revolu-
ton was shed, Theodore Roosevelt in his
New York, has this to say of the affair
of Jan. 10:
This was the first bloodshed in the
struggle which eliminated in the Revolu-
ton. 1t occurred six weeks before the So
called Boston massacre, an incident of
the same kind in which, however, the
Americans were much less clearly in the
right than they were in the New York
case. Even In New York the soldiers had
doubtless been sorely provoked by the
taunts and jeers of the townsmen, but
thepe was absolutely no justification for
their cutting down the liberty pole, and
the New Workers were perfectly right in
refusing to submit tamely to such an out
rage. The chief fault seems to have lain
with the garrison officers, who should
have kept their men under restraint or
else have token immediate steps to remedy
the wrong they did in cutting down the
pole. Now York Commercial Adver

PICK ME UPS.
Remedies For Those Who Have Imbibed
Not Wisely, but Too Well.

Remedies For Those Who Have Imbibed
Not Wisely, but Too Well.
Take any man who Is in the habit Of
looking in the bottom of the glass for
"pure sociability" at intervals from noon
until midnight, and for stomach comfort
before he breaks his fast in the morning,
and let him, after he has arisen and dress
ed, repair to drug store instead of to a
barroom. He has no appetite. He does
not feel as though he were "all there" In
stead of cocktail let him ask the druggist
to prepare mixture Of these ingredients
and quantities, which, when mixed to-.
gether, shall constitute a single dose;
Chloroform, 5 drops; tincture ginger, half
teaspoonful compound tincture carda.
mon, 2 teaspoonfuls; water, awineglassful.
Swallow that slowly-take five minutes
to do it. You will be surprised to find
that i'm about Is minutes the "all gone"
feeling will have disappeared. A gentle,
pleasant warmth is felt in place of the
gnawing sensation, and in a very little
while there are decided symptoms of being
hungry. A repetition of the dose inside
of an hour, in case the attack of the night
before was very severe, will do no harm.
A cup of black coffee 20 minutes after the
first dose is an excellent thing to follow
with, provided the patient is not of a par
tioularly nervous temperament.
You will find some men whose nerves
become unstrung upon very slight alco-
holic proyocation, and such men are prone
to try the similia similibus curantur racket.
The best thing for "a case of that kind is
the drug store again. Here is the dose:
Elixir celery, a dram; elixir cocoa, q
dram; elixir hops, dram bromide of
sodium, 20 grains.
The narrator will guarantee that you
will never resort to whisky again after you
have tried whichever of these doses may
suit your particular case As soon as you
feel able to eat, make your breakfast of
oatmeal principally for two or three days.
On the day after taking the first dose in
vest in two Havana oranges and substitute
the juice for the pick me up tonic. If the
stomach rejects the oranges as too sweet,
throw them away and try the tonic again,
but eventually return to tho fruit.-Phil-
adelphia Times.
