The AOIunIcCr.


He never learned to swing a sword
Or rightly G u gun,
he was lame i'm every Joint
When morning drill was done.
The butt Of all the barraCk jokes,
The point of every sneer,
The farmer lad who left the plow
To be q luntec
But where upon "A crimson field
The soil was running red.
And smoking cannon barred the way,
They followed where he led.
For high above the battles din
His voice was loud n clear
As on he rushed to victory,
The dauntless volunteer.
And in the camp where Death was chic
And famine found It's prey,
And moaning on the soddcn ground
The fcvered soldiers lay,
They passed him with the tattcrcd flag
And heard "A feeble cheer:
1.-THE Stars and Stripes forever!' cried
The dying volunteer.
His grave may lie in hallowed ground,
or deep In oceans flood,
Or where the wave Of Battle creek
Is tainted yet with blood;
But still, wherever It may be,
i pray you drop n tear
A patriot brave and true was he.
The noble volunteer,

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
then in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laXa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
maneutly. It's perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants. by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please
remember the full name of the Company
printed on the front of every package.

BUFFALO CONFERENCE.

l have received number of let.
ters inquiring about the confer
ence to be held at Buffalo, N. Y,
June % to July 4, of this year. l
understand that the movement was
initiated by number of wellknown
reformers with the view of uniting
all the reform elements into one
organization if possible, and TO
adopt some plan by which the
cause of social and political reforms
might be advanced.
l note hesitancy on the part OF
some from fear that it might be
trap prepared by the fusio,ists to
further their schemes. My opinion
is that the call was made in good
faith with the earnest and sincere
desire that all true reformers might
unite their efforts in way to ac-
complish something. This is my
understanding, and with this end
in view shall expect to attend
the conference, l say now, as l
have always said, and give fair
warming, that l do not purpose to
be entrapped or induced to support
any movement that is intended to
be Bryan side show, or in any
way to serve the interests of either
old party.
If the Buffalo meeting can evolve
plan by which the true reforn'ors
in the country can be united, in
dependent of either old party, it
shall have my hearty and sincere
support. And l see no reason why
this should not be accomplished.
Al l understand the makeup of
this conference, as proposed, it
would be impossible to shape its
action into what might be called
an alliance with either old party.
There will be present republicans
Democrats, Populists, Prohibition
lists and Socialists. They will not
be there as delegates representing
their respective parties, but as in
dividuals by invitation OF COM
mittee. Their work can bind no
party. If the conference can agree
on some meritorious plan, this plan
can then be submitted to the diff
ferent parties for approval or re-
lection. The conference can only
recommend, hence l cannot see
where it can be used an a trap, or
az a means to advance the interests
Of an man or political party.
If the meeting is success there
will be present the best thinkers
along all lines of political and
social reforms. There will be but
few politicians-not more prehaps,
than is necessary, and it is to be
hoped they will be of the best
material.
AS to what action the conference
will take is q matter of conjectuer.
1 might suggest some things that
it could do. The history OF free
silver agitation has taught us a

New York, December 1i.-Although
the effect upon the London market Of
Gen. Gatacre's reverse was not serious,
declines In Americans ranging only fro m
one-eighth to two per cent, our openi ng
was extremely heavy and was imme date
Iy succeeded by pronounced weakness.
Thsrs was pressure all over the market
more especially In indu,trials which were
cons plcuous for their lack OF support.
The weakest Of the industrials was I. G.
l., which deciinsd one point at a jump
there bang apparently IN entire absence
of any inside support. The story In the
street Is that for sometime there has been
an unwieldly bull pool in this stock
formed without the approval OF the In
siders, and thns certain powerful short
interests In the street have been cunning
for this pool for some time. Apparently
the insiders did not think that the present
time was favorable ans for buying this
stock, for In spite Of the rally which
took place, brokers who were active In
the crowd were OF ths opinion that 1t
took place rather on covering by shorts
than on buying BY insiders. or course
the renI sensation for the day was not the
British reverse In South Africa, but
rather the over bought condition Of the
maIk st and the apprehension which ex-
listed In money rates.
Commission houses have psen doing all
in their power for some time to induce
their customers to reduce their lines OF
,ndustriaIs, but their advice has not been
needed the result being that severe losses
were entailsd today. Ii appears that the
fears In regard to money received con-
nrmation during the first Ia hours,
rates ranging from ten to fifteen per cent.
Subsequently prominent Broad street
houss offered large blocks OF money
bringing 1t down to the legal rate and
this together with marked slacksning
In the pressure to sell started rally all
over the market. For a time the rally
was fsverish. but during the last hour IL
became pronounced and the closing on
the whole was strong at about the best of
the day.
