According to u Washington despatch,
applications for pensions on account Ct
the Spanish nnd Philippine wars are
pouring in In such volume that they
will more than offset the decies due TO
deaths OF veterans of the Civil war.
Twenty i've Thousand have already ap-
psared, comparatively few on account OF
the Phil ppine wsr which must eventu-
ally yield q large Drop Of claims. The
despatch notes as singular that more
apple ltlons come from regiments that
never Left the country than from thcss
which saw actual fighting. Far NOR,
500, come from the volunteers than from
she regulars.

WANTS TO STATE FACTS.
Mr.. Bennett Seems TO Be Enjoying the
South-The Crackers.

OUuiH NC vi dChclSr
Defuniak Springs, Fla. March Is,
1899. A. L. Fontaine, Grand Rapids,
Wis.-Dear Sir. We are all well and
enjoying the Chautauqua immensely
every day with occasionally ride in
the country. l have no time to write
but | am gathering facts. There are
many good things yet to be said about
this country and some bad things
which / will leave until / am about
ready to step across the line, not that
| fear any personal harm, for | do not,
for I tell the people here plainly what
[ think and state the facts which
they all admit but the fact is l want
to make no mistakes in what | say,
hence prefer to delay. [ made two
mistakes in my other letters:
First. The cracker is not a colored
man though he may be one. The
Florida cracker is usually a white
man who lives back in the woods and
cares for nobody but imagines he
knows all that is necessary. A real
crank or moss back as they would
call him in Michigan, one that stays
in the woods so long the moss grows
on his back mot literally. will bring
back photograph of the typical
Florida cracker.
The other mistake l made was in
saying that the negroes eat sugar cane
like bananas. | saw a lot of them
pealing the cane, cutting it off IN
chunks and putting it in their mouths
and apparently eating it like bananas
but the facts were they were extract
ing the juice and did not stop to see
that they did not swallow the whole
thing.
We are having beautiful weather
now and the Chautauqua is furnishing
up-to-date music singing, comic speak
erS and imperSonatOrS, with some of
the finest speeches containing solid
thought from some of the best talent
on this continent. | regret that the
time is limited to ten days more and
[ also regret that all the world cannot
hear some of these lectures which
seem to be so far in advance of the
ordinary thinker. We are yet to listen
to the eloquence of Chauncey M.
Depew and others.
Mrs. Bennett and Mrs. Edwards are
taking lessons in physical culture and
elOcutiOn under the instruction of the
renowned Addie Chase Smith of BoS-
ton. She is master of her profession
and perfect little lady. We are to
have 200 confederate soldiers in the
front seats tomorrow. We sing DiXey,
Yankee Doodle and Star Spangled
Banner and all are free to cheer as
long as the roof stays on. Yours
truly, A. G. BENNETT.

Discovered by a Woman,

Another great discovery has been
made, and that TOO, by lady in this
country. "Disease fastened it's clutches
upon her and for seven years she with
stood its severest tests, but her vital
organs were undermined and death
seemed imminent. For three months
she coughed necessarily, and could not
sleep. She finally discovered way to
recovery, by purchasing of MS a bottle
Of Dr.. Kings New Discovery for Con-
sumption, and was SO much relieved on
taking first dose, that she sleptall night
and with two bottles, has been abso-
Iutely cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther

pistol shots rang out and it was found
thar the participants We're Ross Nc

not known who fired the first shot
McCord now lies at his fathers home
with two wounds. One ball entered
his left side, ranged upward through
the lungs and lodged in the body.
The attending physician thinks it is
very dangerous. Mr.. Rempson was
raken to the Brown hotel. where his
wounds We're dressed. A ball entered
the. left side of the lower part. of his
bowels, coming out on the right. of the
backbone At midnight Rempson

The first and only information Mr.

The young man had been for several
years in the employ of the Santa Fe

he said he had had trouble at Cameron
