A Detroit Veteran Talks of the War
and the Legacy N Left Him.

ana the Legacy ~ Lett hina.
When the Annual Reunion OF the Il.
A. X. is held, Michigan is always well
represented. Around the camp lires OF
the encampment our boys tell OF the
hardships they have gone through and
the listener who knows nothing OF war
will wonder how they lived TO tell the
tale. Few men, who followed old glory
and escaped the shot and shell, re-
turned home without some legacy as
constant reminder of their war days.
Our representative found Veteran D. l..
Newcomb, of Detroit, at his place of
residence, No. 237 Second street. Mr..
Newcomb told him how the little con-
queror had rendered him invaluable
service. He gives his account here, and
some words of advice tersely told. He
said:
"A lake covering about two acres in
extent, containing the dead bodies of
20 mules, is not tempting water to
drink, but / was one of the many who
drank it, and all of us would have done
so if we had known there was death in
every swallow. This illustrates but one
of the many hardships and privations
passed through during the Civil War,
and it is no wonder that q. A. II. men
suffer from aches and pains, the most
prevalent of these being due to kidney
disorders. / am pleased to note that a
great many others who passed through
as trying ordeals as /, have now learned
how these troubles can be mitigated.
When l say Doan's Kidney Pills will
cure them / not only speak from ex-
perience, but from observation. To
all old soldiers or anyone suffering
from kidney complaint my advice is to
try that remedy"

fcIals With Two Exceptions.

The election of 1900 is thing of the
past. and the glorious victory which
was so fondly anticipated week ago
has been realized in our state, county
and nation. Mckinley and Roosevelt

latest returns from all over the country.
Mckinley has carried all Of the states
he did in 1895, except Kentucky, which
is still in doubt, while he captured
Nebraska, Kansas, South Dakota, Utah,
Washington and Wyoming from the
Bryan column. The states which are
placed in the Bryan column are: Ala
bama, Arkansas, Colorado. Florida,
Georgia, Idaho. Kentucky, Louisiana,
Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nevada;
North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennes-
see. Texas and Virginia. These seven
teen states have l55 electoral votes.

Hare for register OF deeds, Smith for
auditor Charics f.. Smith for
states attorney, Feay for county Judge,

Millionaire who Refuses to Lead Life
Of luxury.

There is man, whose home is in the
town of Union. Ore, who owns rail
road and will not accept a pass to ride
over it; who owns a palatial residence,
but prefers to live in hut; who owns
a large clothing store, inside Of which
he has never been, nor patronized so
much as ordering suit of clothes from
it who wears overalls and blouse, when
he might wear broadcloth; who mas a
pretty young wife and goes TO see her
but once year.
This MIN IS one Of the richest in the
northwest, but he prefers to live the
life of cowboy-with none of the reck-
lessness thrown in. He would rather
eat his dinner in rude hut, the bacon
and beans cooked over camp fire than
dine in the most fashionable restaurant
in the land. He Is strictly temperate,
never touching drop of liquor.
Abner Eobbins has just made one OF
his flying trips to Union. There his
charming young wife lives in all the
luxury imaginable, and is always glad
to see 6et husband when he comes
home, though she pleads him in vain to
stay and live the life of other wealthy
men.
