THE LATE FRANK I. HOGE.
The Historical Tribute Adopted Yes
terday by Shriver Gray Camp.

The Historical Tribute Adopted Yes.
terday by Shriver Gray Camp.
At the meeting of the members of
Camp 'Shriver Grays," United Confed-
crate Veterans. held on the 18th day
OF March, 1901, the following tribute to
the memory Of Comrade Frank l..
Hoge, who was SO suddenly called from
us on Saturday last, the 18th inst,
was unanimously agreed to, and die
tated to be published in the news
papers of the City OF Wheeling:
Frank Hoge was an educated gentle
man, a true soldier and sailor. He
graduated at the Naval Academy, at
Annapolis, Nd. when but a youth and
entered the navy of the United States
as an ensign.
Soon afterward the war between the
States commenced, and in obedience
to the dictates OF his w conscience,
and true to the principles which he
believed to be right, he entered the
navy Of the Confederate States, and be-
came there a trustad officer with the
rank OF lieutenant. He mingled with
many of his associates who like him
had gone into the Confederate army,
and passed through scenes which in
deed tried mems souls"
He was in a large number of naval
fights during the war, and distin-
guished himself by his bravery, and
his efficiency as an officer.
He was with that gallant band who,
in the darkness OF the night, under
the command of the late Capt. J. Tay-
lor Wood, manned small sailing boats,
and attacked the United States gun
boat The Underwater, in the harbor
at Newberne, n. G. The hand to hand
fight in the darkness of that night
upon the deck of the Underwater was
terrific, indeed. Many were killed Upon
her decks, and whilst the battle ragged
the flames broke out and burned the
ship neal to the waters edge, and
the brave Confederates left her to sink
forever. Frank Hoge was a lieutenant
at that time, and had commanded as
such during the terrible ordeal. This
gallant officer was under the COM
mand of Admiral Raphael Semmes,
who for SO long a time swept the seas
in command of the Confederate war
ship, The Alabama. and at the battle
between that ship and the Kearsage
off the coast of France, when the Ala
bama, swept by the broad side guns
of the Kearsage, sank forever in the
mighty depths of old ocean. Frank
Hoge, brave and gallant during that
mighty battle, standing at his post of
duty, went down into the waters with
his ship. He was rescued from the
deep, and returned TO take his place
again as an officer in the Confederate
navy.
Soon afterwards the wal was over,
and he returned to the home of ais
childhood, and adopted the profession
of a civil engineer, in which his abil-
ity was soon recognized, and he lived
to spend the rest of his life amid
his friends in the city of Wheeling.
and to die SO suddenly on Saturday
last.
His comrades in war, and his asso-
ciates and friends in time of peace,
will ever cherish his memory until they
shall be called, like him, to pass over
the river forever.

Before Squire Pierce yesterday Harry
Doty, q young man living near Cap
tine, was given a hearing on the
charge Of attempting to commit an as

estimable young lady of Roberts

an indecent proposal to her, but denies
attempting to force her to submit to
his demands. He gave bond in the sum
OF 5000 for his appearance before the
grand jury.

boils, sores, salt-rheur1, eczema, letter,

Accept no substitute for vGolden Med
ical Discovery The main motive of
substitution is to enable the dealer to
make the little more profit paid him by
the sale of less m%eritorious preparations.
Sick people, especially those suffering
from diseases which have become
chronic, are invited to consult Doctor
Pierce, by letter, free. All correspond
ence is held as strictly private and
sacredly confidential. Address DR.. R. v.
Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
This invitation, to consult DR.. Pierce
by letter, free, is not to be COMPOUNDED
with the spurious offers of vfree medical
advice" made by those who having no
medical knowledge or experience, are not
qualified either professionally or legally
to give medical advice.
DR.. Pierce, chief consulting physician
to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical In
s%titute, Buffalo, NY, assisted by his
medical staff of nearly a score of ply
s~icians, has in a little over thirty years,
CTcdLeu ana cured nunQrcQS OF thousands
of sick mel and women.
The success of DIR. Pierce's methods
and medicines may be inferred from the
fact that of the hundreds of thousands
who have consulted him oS per cent. have
been perfectly and permanently cured.
There is no similar offer of free con
sultation by letter which has behind it
an institution of such world wide reputa-
ton as the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical
Inststute, Buffalo, N. Y, with its staff of
nearly a score of physicians and its great
record of cures.

Vital statiTics tell the story. The
average life of the mar in the stoke hole,
the rolling mill, the blast furnace, the
| glass factory, is far below the average
life of the open air worker.
Yet the average life of these hard
working men could be considerably pro-
longed, if once and for all they would
learn the force of that Biblical state
ment, rThe blood is the life" If a man
seeks to prolong his life, he must take
account of his blood for that is the
vital fluid.
WAITING FOR THE WORST.
The chief cause OF a physical break
down is often the fact hat people put
off giving themselves proper care. They
don't want to spend the money for medi-
cine, or they don't feel quite sick enough
to want to take it. They feel languid,
vplayed out" as they say, and when the
days work is over there isn't a bit of
"go" left in them. That's the time
when the use of DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery means a new grip on
life, and the prevention of more serious
disease.
ut has been five years since I took
your Golden Medical Discovery for an
affection called scrofulous enlargement
of the glands of the neck" writes Mr..
Zebulon B. Loftin. of Grifton, Pitt Co.,
N. c., Wand I am glad to tell you that
1 have had no return of the disease. I
thought 1 would write you and let you
know that 1 ] have not forgotten you, and
never will while I live.
rYou may publish this if you wish,
and if any n wants to know about my
testimonial they are at liberty to write to
me, and I will acknowledge the truth in
return"
"For three years 1 have suffered
with that dread disease, eczema" writes
Mrs. ]. Koepp, of Hermann, Oregon. 81

ical Discovery, which l did, and after I
had taken fourteen bottles I was perman-
emily cured. 1t has been a year since I
stopped taking your medicine and the dis
ease has never appeared since. Your
medicine produced a wonderful cure, and
1 hope others suffering as I did, will
take it and be relieved of their suffering"

There are grades even in hard work.
The actual labor may not be greater in
N case than in another, but the con
ditions under which the work is done

To work in the harvest field, under a hot
sun, is, after all, a healthful occupation.
To work in a stoke hole, deep in the
bowels Of an ocean liner, o. under
ground in some basement, imposes far
more strain and produces greater exhaus-
ton than the hardest work in the field

. BAD BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION.

The skin is the seat of an almost end
less variety of diseases. They are known
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that ~irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations of
arsenic and potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per-
snanently the ugly blotches and the red,
disfiguring pimples.

LINES TO 4 MULATTO WOMAN.

Her face is as fair the flower that blooms in the
shades of night
Filling the air with fragrance and the sences with
delight
Her eyes are as soft as the twilight her voice as
sweet as the flute,
To hearken to its music the nightingale grows
mute,
Her heart is as warm the SUMMER and as pure
as the crystal springs,
She is an angel of the shadows and the shadows
hide her wings.
Her mind is as clear as the sunlight of the most
unclouded day.
Andher dainty feet unfaltering tread the straight
and narrow way,
She stands above ambition she has no wish to
rise,
For nought oertops her lofty soul that's underneath
the Skies
For her with my hearts strong feeling, no taint of
passions blend,
Tis the pure and proud affection felt for noble
friend,
Of dearest priced possessions the richest sweetest
Comes of fully trusted friend, the rock of souls
defense.

A Correction.

In the January 26 h issue OfThe Col
ored American in which a sketch Of
Rev. John II. Grifin's life was given
aud also the cOmmendsbie work OF
Ebenezer M. E. church of Washington
D. c., of which be is pastor, the fol
lowing declaration was made:-"He
spoke in the most mplimentary terms
of the help and wise council Of Messrs.
4. w Dangerfeld, Daniel Jenkins,
John Il. Mitchell and William Dun
more; all of whom have by religious
conduct and loyal interest to the church
made his administration grand sue
cess" This declaration was an error,
and indeed unlike Rev. John d. Crit
fin. He is man who believes in cOun'
Gil, not with individuals, but with his
entire official board. This policy is the
kennel of his success and manliness in
church work. He holds no caucus and
has no psts. He claims that the hearty
90. operation of his off cisl board, mem
bers and friends of the church are to be
credited with the marked success dur
ing his pastOrate.
