Washington, May 26.-The name of
Major Charles NJ Rockefeller OF the
Ninth Infantry, who disappeared in the
Philippines in April, 1899, has been drop
ped from the army register and Captain
W ". McCammon, Fourth infantry, has
been promoted 10 the vacancy thus Gre
ated. Major RockefelIers name has
been retained on the rolls Of the army
for more than a year in the hope that
he would turn up, but such was not the
case and nothing has been heard from
him since he disappeared. Shortly after
his arrival IN the Philippines he went TO
inspect Outposts and was never seen by
his comrades. Every effort was made
TO discover his whereab bouts. or to re-
cover his body in case he had been
killed, but TO no avail.

West viii Claim Vice President If New

Philadelphia. Jan. 16--Henry c.
Payne. of Wisconsin. a member OF the
subcommittee OF the national Repub-
Iican committee having in charge the
arrangements for the holding OF the
national convention in this city in June
left Yesterday for Washington. where
the subcommittee will hold u meeting
this week. Before he left he sid that
the nomination of Mckinley again
was a foregone conclusion. but there
was doubt about his running mate. He
added: For some time past the west
has been perfectly willing 10 allow the
vice presidential nomination TO 90 10
New York. but the multiplicity of can
didates in that state of late has made
the statesmen of the middle west look
a the situation in different light.
If New York wants the nomination
she must stop quarrelling or the Mis-
SiSSippi valley Will present a candidate
with a strong backing. 1t has been a
long time since the West has had n
voice president. and unless there is some
decided stand taken by the eastern
statemen the west will do just what
she was ready TO do in the last preSi-
Dental campaign. 1t was only the
great popularity and friendship enter
tanned for the late Carrot y. Hobart
which prevented the west from push

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought of using
anything else for indigestion or bill
iOusness. Doctors were scarce, and
they seldom heard of appendicitis,
nervous prostration or heart failure,
etc. They used August Flow
er to clean out the system and stop
fermentation of undigested food, reg
ulate the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of the
system, and that is all they took when
feeling dull and bad with headaches
and other aches. You only need a

The collection Of the fish and game
commission at the State House will re-
ceive an American eagle, shot by Will
liam II. Stevens of Oakland, on Messa-
lonskee lake, which is said to be the
largest ever shot in Maine. When
taken 1t weighed 20 pounds and meas
ured seven feet eight inches across the
wings. When Mr.. Stevens fired on the
bird he only succeeded in breaking
wing and in order to secure the priZe
he was OBLIGED to make fight as the
bird was true to its family and fought
with talons and beak assisted with but
one wind. A resident of Oakland SAID
the eagle killed by Mr.. Stevens was one
of pair that had lived around Mesa
lonskee lake for many years and inc
people who have looked upon the blrds
as good omens regretted that Mr..
Stevens felt called upon to kill one of
them.
