~ for Mai. Micah jenkins of the Rough

State OF New York.

Albany. Feb. 23, 1899.
Col. j. II. Tillman, Edgcficld, S. G.
My Dear Sir-I take peculiar pleasure
i'll writing in behalf of Major Micah
jenkins. formerly of my Regiment
tROugh Rilcrs) First V Oluntcer cavalry
have been endeavoring to have Mai.
Jenkins put into the regular army. |
do not believe that in the whole ser
vice could be found IL drawer or more
gallant soldier. lie entered my lrgi
mcnt as junior captain and handled his
troops so well in the Guasimas fight
that ut the request of all the other cap
tainS ut the San Juan fight made him
IN acting major, AMI he was made
major because of the gallantly and cf-
iiricncy he there displayed. have
also recommended him for brcvct
because of his gallantry. He was be-
side me when we charged from Kettle
hill to the second line OF entertainments
and he afterwards went on practically
by himself until he ran into the Span
isll lines and had to be recalled. His
hat was shot from his head and his
coat almost to tattcrs. At no time, by
night OF day, did he fail in performing
his whole duty and more than his
duty.
Danger seemed to act upon him lit
orally like wine. In short, my dear sir,
he showed himself in every way worthy
of his gallant father, the Confederate
general.
Although irrelevant. cannot refrain
from mentioning the fact that carried
through the campaign the field glasses
''sc1 iii the civil war by Gen. Dayton
of the Confederate service (alsoa South
Carolinian). these glasses having been
loaned to me by his daughter. Miss
Dayton, of the navy department, at
Washington
With great regard and assuring you
that it has been indeed Il pleasure to
write i'll behalf of my gallant comrade,
Major ,Jcnkins, | am very sincerely
yours,

Special to the Register.
WESTON, W. Va, October 6.-Dr.
w. E. Stathers rendered his resigna-
ton as superintendent of the hospital
to the board this afternoon.
1t was accepted to take effect at the
January meeting, at which time his sue
cessor will be qualified.
When DR.. Stathers action was an
nouneed it could be heard upon all
sides that Dr. Kunst would be the next
superintendent. The boom seems to be
healthy one. Many of the doctor's
friends are urging him to allow his
name to go before the board as an ap-
plicant for the position.
DR. Keener, representing the Noun
tain State Gas Company, was awarded
the contract for furnishing fuel for the
asylum for period of three years with
the privilege of five, at $4,000 per year.
The board reserves the right to cancel
this contract with ninety days notice,
providing they decide to drill for and
get gas upon the State grounds.

Does Not Agree Wi h Mark Hanna's
Estimate of the United Stats Gov
eminent.

CANTON, H.. October Cool W.
]. Bryan visited the Canton street fair
to-day and delivered an address on the
public square to an immense audience.
He said:
THE silver question is not dead, not
withstanding the fact that for num-
Der OF years our Republican friends
have been. claiming that it has been
inferred"
He then paid his respects to the
trusts, which, he said, had in the main
grown up within the last few years as
the result of Republican legislation
He did not agree with Mark Hanna,
who" said Col. Bryan, recently said
after returning from England, that the
English system of government was as
good, if not better, than the American
system"
About half of his address was de-
voted TO the foreign policy of the adj
ministration, claiming that it's trend
was in the direction of imperialism.
The war in the Philippines, he sad,
was a war of conquest, and not one in
the interest of republican government.
He wanted the Philippines treated as
the government has promised to treat
the Cubans. Instead Of doing what was
