it was God-send to me.n
Summer colds require prompt treat
uenf. They are always grave, and
sometimes dangerous. TIE prompt
ness and surety with which Peruna
acts IN these cases has saved many
lives. A large dose of Peruna should
be taken at the disappearance of o cold
in summer, followed by small and oft
repeated doses. There is no other REM
edy that medical science can furnish, SO
reliable and quick in its action as Peruna.

ST. BERNARD's COLLEGE
The New Academic Year Promises Well
students Arriving

Cullman, September Especial -St.
Bernard's College begins its fall term on
Wednesday next, this being its ninth aca-
demic year. Last year was the most sue
cessfu in the history of this noble insti-
tuition, and the year 1901 promises to be
equally as fruitful of high accomplishment.
Students are already arriving, and by Tues
day the numbper will probably be near the
hundred mark. OF these not less than fif-
teen will come from Birmingham All the
Southern States will be represented, and
quite number of students will come from
cities north of the Ohio.
st. Demands is conducted by the Bene-
dictines, and is in every way model col
lege. 1t has fine primary department for
small boys, while its academic departments
include all the usual branches appertaining
to higher education. Ancient and modern
languages, mathematics and history are
taught with great thoroughness, and the
commercial course is practical and at
tractive.
The Right Rev. Abbot Benedict Menges,
Is the president of the college, and Rev.
Father Boniface is the vice president, di-
rector and rector. Every member of the
faculty is noted for learning and talent for
teaching; and a witness to the gentle-
ness and the kindly spirit of the discipline
In vogue at st. Demands, the expression of
eontentment and happiness on the face of
each student should be sufficient. Books
and athletics are combined with singularly
happy saneness. Frater Charles has charge
OF the orchestral class, and being himself
musician of wide experience is the right
man in the right place.
There is no healthier county in the United
States than Cullman. There is no malaria
hereabouts and sickness of any kind is al
most unknown at St Demands.
The Right Rev. Abbot is in Europe and
will spend greater part of the fall in
Rome. He is expected to return in Decem-
Der. In his absence. the good Father Am
brose, the Very Rev. Prior is at the
head of ST. Bernard's Monastery.

FIRED BROADSIDE
INTO REPUBLICANS
Bryan Propounds Questions TO
Supporters of Administl alton.
THE CAMPAIGN IN INDIANA
Was Opened Yesterday by Democratic
Presidential Nominee speeches
Were Well Received by Large
and Enthusiastic Crowds

South Bend, Ind, September 1.-Mr. Bry-
an today made his second brief visit of
the campaign to Indiana He arrived at
this point a few minutes after o'clock
this afternoon, speaking briefly at La
Porte en- route and here more at length
AT South Bend Mr.. Bryan was taken in
charge by a committee and escorted to the
residence of Hon. b. F. Shively At La
Porte he said, in part:
IF a Republican tells you that the gold
standard is good, ask him why the Presi-
dent sent a commission to Europe since
the last election to get rid of the gold
standard; If any Republican tells you that
the greenback is bad and ought to be re-
tired ask him why his party did not dare
to make that assertion in the last cam
paign. If Republican tells you that a
permanent debt is a good thing, you tell
him that in ali the campaigns of the past
the Republican party has been Dragging
about how it paid off the national debt and
yet that today the Republican party stands
for a currency system that can only be
permanent on the theory that the national
debt shall be permanent, for you cannot
have bank notes secured by government
bonds unless there are government bonds
to secure them"
This suggestion called out applause, and
Mr.. Bryan continued:
III any Republican tells you that the
trust is good thing, you ask him why the
republican platform denounces the trust,
and if the Republican says that the trust
is bad thing, you ask him why the re-
publican administration allowed more
trusts to be organized during the last
three years than had mbeen organized
during the last three years than had been
organized in all the history of the country
before that time. 1t does not matter which
side the Republican takes you can con-
front with the question that he cannot an
swer, for if he desires to defend the trusts
you can point to the republican platform
adopted at Philadelphia which denounces
the trusts you can point to the record of
his administration that has failed to de-
stroy the trusts

Mt POughkeepsie.

POUGHKEEPSIE,sd IN. Y, June %. =
Wisconsin's appearance on the river To-
night with her two crews just after the
storm closed caused quite gatherlng
on the wharves, and the general con-
sensus of opinion is that the crews are
rowing exceeding fast and in tlne FORM
The stroke is the snappiest On the river,
and while both freshmen and varsity
boats check slightly the momentum be-
tween checks is very great. Eomgnt
Wisconsins varsity crew is the faVoflte
for first place.
Naturally the event of tonight was the
drawing for position by the c.eW pains.
1t is generally conceded by this time that
there is little or no advantage IN any pO-
sition on the course, unless 1t be that
both outside and inside crews are always
more free than those SandWiched in be-
tween The drawing f0S the three was

HARDING COLLAPsEs.

Suddenly there came break in the
crimson eight. Something was wrong
with the Cambridge stroke. His oar
failed at times to strike the water. a
few seconds later the Harvard boat quiv-
cred and trembled. Up went Harding s
oar, and over toppled his exhausted body
The coxswain pulled his rudder ropes
sharply to one side and shouted to his
men, who did their best to relieve the
lopsidedness of the machine with its
four to three oars. The beautiful craft
swerved wildly to one side, and cries
of chagrin and disappointment were
raised.
Poor Harding, the boy who was under
the strain of the responsibility placed
upon his shoulders by the Higginson mis-
hap had rowed himself out in that last
squirt. The young Spartan, disregarding
the fact that during the last three days
he lost five pounds. had pulled his last
ounce and lay a helpless passenger in
the shell. He fell into the lap of the
coxswain; Strengthened up and again
grasped his oar in a pitiful attempt to
get into the race once more.
The Yale eight, magnifcently strong,
and in grand style, tore on down the
stretch Every man, trained to the hour
for a four-mile race, was pulling beauti-
fully, and added ten lengths to their
lead over their unfortunate rivals.
The Harvard launch now rushed across
the course to the Harvard shell, evident
ly for the purpose of stopping them In
their useless efforts. The oarsmen, how
ever, refused to hear@of it, and, game to
the last, pulled down to the finish. Yale
crossed the line winner by six good
lengths and "a 3-5 seconds ahead of Har-
