THE Y. M. c. A.

The business mems committee of the Y. M. c. A. have been hard at work in their endeavors to secure the balance of the amount which is needed for the erection of the new building. They are desirous of having the entire amount if possible, pledged before next Tues day, as the great jubilee convention conVenes in Boston on that day and it is their hope that they may present an excellent report to that body at that time. With this in mind many of the business men will give their entire time on Monday to that work. The entire committee will meet at the association rooms at 12:30 on that day and after partaking of a light lunch will under- take during the afternoon a most thor ough canvass of the city, endeavoring to secure as many new pledges as pos sible. They are hoping that this may prove a red-letter day in the history of the association,
 Last evening at o'clock the young business mems committee met at the association rooms. Many reports of additional pledges were received, and the young men are very much encour- aged at the prospects.

 The Rev. E. Birmingham, of Daniel- son, has made application for pension on account of the services of his son. George H. Birmingham, in the civil war.
 George Birmingham enlisted in the First Rhode Island light artillery. known as Randolph's Battery, Septem- Der 30th, 1861, and was with Mcclellan on the Peninsula. He was q corporal and in command of a gun in a van of the army, so that when the retreat was sounded he was in the rear and waa captured by the rebels July l. 1862, and was confined in Libby prison until Sep- tember 7th following, when he was pa- roled in the first six hundred and fifty prisoners who were released by the rebels. He reported at Fort Delaware. where he remained until after he had been exchanged, when he was dis-l charged November 18th, S82, on &C., count of disease contracted at Libby and the dislocation of his left shoulder. After being nome a few months and re- covering his health somewhat, he re- turned with his brother Byron. into the conlmissary department of the army, where he remained until the close Of the war. He died in Tor ortsnlouth, Ohio, February 2d, 1898, of complication cf bronchial troubles and pneumonia, aged sixty-one years, and lies in Sol- dier's Row in the cemetery at that place.
 MT. Birmingham, besides the two sons mentioned above, was represented in the army by still another son, who not being able to go personally. an account of family affairs, sent substitute. thereby giving him three representa- tives at the front. Congressman Russell who has presented the appli- cation for the pension to the depart- ment, considers it one of the most re- markable and meritorious that has ever come to his knowledge.

A Gaf4RsREL S55FF2IR TONIC.
Is .Pe-ru-na, Says Congressman
 Fitzpatrick.

T have now used Peruna off and on for over three years as g strengthening l'tonic and find it of inestimable value. My system gets run down and worn out at times, and do not know what l. should do without Peruna to build 1t up again. ."-Mathias Jeff.
 A Summer Tonic. Pe-ru-na is a natural and efficient nerve tonic. It strengthens and re- stores the activity of every nerve in tho body.
 Through the use of Pe-ru-na the weakened or overworked nerves resume |;their natural strength and the blood vessels begin at once to regulate the flow of blood according to nature's laws. sCongestions immediately disappear.
 Summer Catarrh.
 All phases of summer oatarrh, acute or chronic, are promptly and permanently cured. It is through its operation upon the nervous system that Pe-ru-na has attained such 8 worldwide reputation as sure and reliable remedy for all phases of catarrh wherever located.
 If you do not derive prompt and satis- factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad- vice gratis.
 Address Dr. Hartman, President of The Hartman sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio.
