It Is made from a formula of DR.. R. v.
Pierce, the celebrated specialist in diseases
of women at Buffalo, n. Y. 1t is a strictly
Temperance medicine, containing neither
alcohol, opium or other narcotic poison.
Its protracted use does not create a craving
for Intoxicating stimulants or deadly mar

allow, but they cannot initiate its record

GRAND ARMY MEN


Adopt Resolutions Concerning the Contro-
yersy Over the Dewey Parade
TOPEKA, KANSAS, September rs.
Gen. Shaw, National Commander in
Chief of the G. A. R., in prefacing his
address to the veterans at the State
reunion, to-day, spoke of the now fam
ous controversy of the G. A. r. with
the Dewey parade managers. He char
acterized those having the big parade
in charge as "narrow-minded blunder-
ers, clothed with a little brief author
ity." He then reviewed the whole
trouble.
Had a soldier Of deeds" he declared,
been in the place of Gen. Roe. the
Grand Army would have marched in
glory and joy at the head of the line,
following the great Admiral, where,
beyond question, their place should
be-"
Again he said: Let this battleless
Major General, General Roe, stew in
his own juice, in view of his oft-repeat-
ed declaration: I'll take the whole
responsibility in refusing the Grand
Army the right of parade l am per-
fectly willing he should"
Gen. Shaw scid that soon Admiral
Dewey would be invited to visit the
34th National Encampment, to be held
at Chicago in 1900, where the veteran
survivors would express their admira-
ton for him in their own way and
unhampered.
The veterans then adopted the follow
ing:
Resolved. That the action of our Com
mander-in-Chief, Albert d. Shaw, and of
the department commander, Joseph W.
Mckay, of New York, in refusing to ac-
cept a place for the Grand Army in the
rear of the procession. a position never will
lingly occupied by the defenders of Old
Glory in any line, meets with our unqual-
\ified approval. We, the comrades of Kan
sas, always lead the line in every patriotic
demonstration illustrative of American
valor. and we hope that on no similar oc-
casion in any department of the nation
will the Grand Army of the Republic be
assigned to any other than the post of
honor. And be it further
Resolved. That the patriotic action of
Governor Roosevelt, of New York, in
promptly supporting the action of our
Commander-in-Chief in demanding proper
recognition of the Grand Army of the Re-
public endears him to every true COM
raGe of this nation and exemplifes the
sterling manhood of the Rough Rider who
led the line to victory up San uan Hill
and in whose breast beats a warm heart
for the veterans of 81 and 60"

CIRCUIT COURT.

-
In the Circuit Court, Part Two, Judge
Hervey, in the case of RoDrecht VS..
Robrecht, a judgement was rendered
for the plaintiff, Frank Robrecht, in
the sum of $50.
In the case of Baumann against the
Board of Education, the court excluded
the evidence for the plaintiff and IN
structed the jury to find a verdict foI
the defendant. This case grows out of
the refusal of the plaintiff tt have bis
children v~accinated in accordance with
an order of the Board of Education, and
a consequent denial of the privileges
of the public schools to the children.
1t has been the subject of considerable
controversy in the press and else
where.
