A HAPPY MORTAL.

Huntington, w. VA, Sept. 3.-Wil
liam Mercer, of Raccoon Creek, j.
miles south of this city, is probabl!
the happiest mortal in the county.
He came here last evening to secure
his fifth marriage license and Other

has just passed his 5Oth year and was
married to his first wife when 10

A STRONGHOLD CAPTURED.

Manila, Sept. Sword has been
received here that Argogula, the
stoutest fort of the Filipino bands
which have been destroying planta-
tons and Ievying tribute on the PEG
pie of Negros, was taken last Tuesday
by the Sixth Infantry, under Lieuten-
aut-Colonel Bryan.
The only means of reaching the
town was up a.perpendicular hill, COW
cred with dense shrubbery and 1000
feet high. The Americans accomplish
ed this ascent under fire, although an
officer and several men were hit and
rocks were rolled down upon them.
The native strength was estimated
at 400. Many of the rebels were
wounded and captured and 2l were
killed.
The insurgents made an unsuccess-
fll attempt early yesterday morning
I, drive Colonel Smiths command out
Of Angels, Luzon, with artillery, the
fl st time they had attempted to use
this arm for months. They brought
two Krupp guns from Porae and fired
eight shrapnel shells at the town at
dawn. Only few ofthe shells explod-
ed and the aim of the gunners beng
bad 10 damage was done. Lieutenant
Henly'a guns, of the First Artillery,
were brougot into action and soon
drove the enemy from their position.

he PRAISES kGUlNAlU0.

Providence, r. l., Sept. 3. The
first of q series of meetings arranged
bv the New England Bimetallic Lea
rue in the interests of bimetallism was
held at Crescent Park here this after
noon.
The platform was decorated with
the national colors, together with
chose OF Great Britain, Ireland,
France and Cuba.
Judge James p. Tarvin, OF Ken
lucky, was the first speaker tie was
followed by Congressman John )
Lentz, of Ohio, whose sarcastic re
ferences to President Mckinley, ar
raignment ofthc Philippine war and
eulogy of Aguinaldo as one OF the
greatest men of the century were ap
plauded.
There was prolonged cheering when
ex-Gov. J.P. Altgeld, OfIllinois, was
i troduced. Owing to the fact that
his address in New York on Labor
Day is to be devoted to detailed
discussion of the monetary question,
he dealt in generalities at the meet
ing here.
At the close of Altgeld's address
there were calls for Senator Tlllman,
who, in response, promised to bring
his three prOnged pitchfork to the
meeting tomorrow and use 1t with
good effect.

TO be bound hand and foot fol

worst form of slav cry. George ID,
Williams, of Manchester, Mich, tells
how such n slave was made free. He
says; My wife has been 50 helpless
or five years that she could not turn
over in bed alone. After using two
bottles of Electric Bitters, she is
wonderfully improved and able TO do
her own work" This supreme rem

Ok LAST WEDNESDAY there assem-
bled at Saranac Lake, n. Y, fifteen
hundred people to witness the rein
terment of seven of John Browns
traitors, some OF whom had been
hanged about 40 years ago, for treas
on and violating the laws Of Virginia,
in committing murder and in attempt
ing to incite the negroes of this Va
lev to murder their masters and their
families. They were captured by a
body of L. S. troops, under the COM
1nand of Col. r. +. Lee, Of the |. 5.
Army, at Harpers Ferry. They were
a band of midnight marderers and
assassins. To-day, we find portion
o. the people endeavoring to honor
the memory of these wretches. They
insult justice loving God by sing
ing hymns and offering prayers at
their open graves. They bring the
army of the United States into dis
repute by having detachment hOm
the 26th Infantry, fire a salute at the
open grave OF murderers and traitors,
thus honoring the memory Of those
who committed treason against their
government, and fired upon the ma
rines of the United States Navy at
Hsrper's Ferry.
Remarks were made by Bishops
Potter and WhiteIaw Reed. Such
conduct would bring any state and
any government into disrepute.
Treason in the North, at this day,
seems to be popular, and traitors are
honored by those who profess to be
preaching gospel OF peace and good
will to all mankind.

DEATH OF ROBT. PEER.

Mr. Robert Peer, a well known and
popular young man Of the river several
miles south oftown, had been suffering
very severely with appendicitis for ssme
DAYS. He underwent surgical opera
ton on Saturday night.
The operation was performed by Dr
W. Z. Mcguire, who had been called
from Winchester. assisted by DR.. A. 7.
Below, of Edinburg, and DR.. W. G. Ford,
of this place. The operation was skill
fully performed, and for some hours after
the patient seemed TO be doing well, but
his condition became more uniavorable,
and Monday night he was in very criti-
cal condition From this time on he con-
tnued to grow worse Notwithstanding
the most careful medical attention and
the nursing Of devoted friends.
Tuesday evening at twenty minutes
before Seven O'Clock the end came and
the spirit was released from its suffering
body and entered into rest. This is one
tof the saddest deaths we have been called
upon to chronicle In the prime of his
young manhood, apparently in the most
vigorous health and strength, with every
thing 10 live for he was summOnd 10 turn
his back upon life and all its joys and
bright expectations and drop between
himself and all that he held most dear
the impenetrable curtain that separtes
this life from the eternal one.
Mr.. Peer was only 90 years old. The
most earnest sympathy of all our people
is extended to the sorely bereayed moth
er, brother and sisters.

The ONLY redeeming feature about
the Philippine war is that it diyerts
the att ention Of a neddlesome class
of yankees from their efforts to stir
up a race war in the South. These
hypocritical people seem to be born
with an inherent predisposition to at
tend to other peoples business. We
of the South, will have rest while
they are despoiling and numbering
Philippines, burning their homes. and
scattering ruin and devastation
Throughout that fair tropical island.

pleted, there Will be no rest until they
can stir up cruel war between peo-
piles who lived happily together I'M

The Number of claims for pensions
for service In the Spanish war filed
during the past year was nearly eigh-
teen thousand. What it will be, no
body can now tell. When all the ex-
pense of that war shall be computed,

such a totally causeless and unneces-
sary war.-Alex. Gazette.
