TAM MANY
WILL Eft UP A FINE NEW HALL
Enthusiastic Meeting Reid Last Night
with Over 400 Present.

In spite OF George Locke's and the Ami
don-Dale faction, Tammany still lives
and nourishes. The organization. says a
Tammanyite, held an enthusiastic meet
ing last night with over 100 members
present. The members are not at all dis
coIraged at their defeat in the commit
veloped far more strength than they
thought they would at so early date.
They will continue to work quietly to
organize the Democratic party in the city
and county and think that by the time
the next election arrives, they will be In
a position to control things. They say
they do not fear the other fellows in the
least, and are confident that they will
down them next time. At the meeting
last night II was decided to secure per-
manent quarters in some building in this
city and a regular Tammany hall will be
instituted. A sign bearing the Inscription
''Tammany Hall" will be placed In the
front Of the building and It will be made
regular meeting place for the faithful
In short time the Tammanyites expect
nearly every good Democrat in the city
to be a member of the organization and
say that they now have a number of ap-
plications, which have not been acted
upon. A meeting will be held next Fri
day evening and a banquet served with
all the regulation Tammany trimmings
Quite lengthy program has been ar
ranged and the grand sachem will make
a speech which Is calculated to arouse en-
thusiasm among the workers. Hereafter
Tammany will meet regularly every Fri
day night and from the attendance at the
meeting last night there will be lots of
interest taken in the organization. Tam
many has u in ( r Dale and Amldon and
promise to get their scalps for the trick,
which was played upon them by George
Locke and his crowd in running in prox-
les in the committee from townships,
which were never before represented on
the committee They say that "organ-
ization" will be the watchword of Tam
many and that II ever a political club
was organized 1t will be theirs. They in
tend to work on the quiet. but when the
time comes they will show their hand
and call the turn.

THEY HAVE QUIT
American Volunteers Surren-
der Their Field.
COULDN'T PAY HALL RENT
Officers Sell Their Furniture
and Leave the City.

The American Volunteers, an organiza-
ton on the same line as that Of the Sal
walton Army. with hsadQuarters~on South
Emporis avenue, have disbanded, and it
Is reported that the officers have left for
other fields. The old hall on South EN-
poria has been closed ana the furniture OF
the Volunteers was sold day before yes
terday for g. and all that now remains
is The memory of the whanE1ng tones Of
the cornet with the tricky water key.
The organization Of the Volunteers has
been engaged IN this city for two years,
but they have never prospered. owing to
the other organization, the Salvation
Army, which is much. older. and the super
abundance Of cJIrbstone preachers which
visit and hold forth In this city. The Vol
unteers could not compete with such a
force and they have surrendered their
neld.
The organization Of the Volunteers has
teers still leaves an abundance Of open air
services upon the streets, condition
which, however beneficial in a religious
way, Is q constant menace 20 the police.
A prominent police officer said yester-
day that Wichita was known to be the rem
devious of more street attractions in the
way Of fskirA ana religious and political
demonstrators than any other city in the
country, and he expressed himself as be-
ing very glad that the Volunteers had
quit.
II has been expected for some time that
the Volunteers would have 70 yield their
field to satan. as so many different COM
msnders have been sent here within the
last few months. Some OF the best off,
Gems in the country were put in charge,
but no one was able to put the organiza-
ton on It's feet financially.
A gentleman who is familiar with the
work Of the Volunteers was seen last
night, and being asked as to the truth
OF their surrender, he grew eloquent, say
ing:
Yes, sir: the devil has won another
victory. The hosts OF iniquity are rejoic-
ing in ghoulish glee because another foe
has been vanquished. The American Vol
unteers have surrendered. For two years
a Oh brave men ana women nave
sought to worship God in the way they
thought best, and have kept up an organ
ization that has appeared upon the streets
nightly, rain or shine, and faithfully car
ried out a program laid down by duty.
But the struggle was unequal The SAL
walton Army, a rival organization, was
older and stronger and got the most
nickels in the street collections. There
came a time when the hall rent had to be
paid and there was nothing to pay It with
The little band, after a sorrowful review
OF the situation, decided TO disband. The
furniture was sold for 50 and the Ameri-
can Volunteers were mustered out. The
insensate heart of the bass drum has
stilled its beating. The comets clarion
clamor continueth not. The timorous
1inklings Of the tambourine are hushed at
nightfali and the old hall on South EN-
poria that was wont to ring with shouts
OF hallelujah. knows those joyous sounds
no more forever"

Pe-ru-na works tremendously with
nature to eject the tubercles from the
lungs, and works so successfully that
if there is cure for consumption
Pe-runa is the remedy.
Read this letter from Mrs. H. A
Tyner, of Four Oaks, N. c., about her
daughter, Mrs. L. Keene. She says:
Pe-yn-Na Medicine Co., Columbus,O.
DEAR S1Rs:-"My daughter had every
symptom of acknowledgements
of menses, nightsweats and great ema-
citation. She was so low that none of
our neighbors thought she could live.
In May Mr.. c. r. Adams, of this place,
who had taken Pe-ru-na, told me if
anything would help her Pe-ru-na
would. l got bottle of it and some
rock candy and began giving it to her.
During the first few days she was so
weak she could only take a half tea
spoonful at a time, but 1 gave it to
her as often as she could bear it. In
less than a week she could walk two
hundred yards and back without rest
ing; she kept getting stronger, and in
twelve months she seemed to be as we'll
as she ever was in her life. I feel, and SO
does every one that knew about her
sickness, that Pe-ru-na saved her life.
My daughters name is Mrs. L. Keene."

Wants Dreyfus Brought Back.

PARIS, April Ex-senator Trarieux
has written to NJ Lebret, minister Of
justice. pointing out the passage in the
message of Governor Deniel of Cayenne,
intimating that Dreyfus wished to COM
NIT suicide, and demanding that care be
taken to preserve the prisoner from any
accident and especially from violent
death, the responsibility for which
would fall on the government. Senator

Gent to justify the return of Dreyfus to
