A. A. Power, of Emporia, Kan. "My
n.ighbor across the street was sick for
for over a week, had two or three bottles
of me,licine from the doctor. He used
them for three or four days without re-
lief, then called in another doctor who
treated him for some days and. gave him
no relief, SO discharged him. l went
over to see him the next morning. He
said his bowels were in a terrible fix, that
they had been running off so long that it
was almost bloody flux. 1 asked him if
he had tried Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy and he said, NO.
1 went home and brought him my bottle
and gave him one dose; told him to take
another dose in fifteen or twenty min
utes if he did not find relief, but ne took
no more and was entirely cured" For

Vanishing Bird Races.

It is reported that the famingo,
the pink curlew, and the egret, to-
gether with several other species of
beautiful and valuable birds are
vanishing SO rapidly that within
few years they will be practically ex-
tinct. The warfare on these birds
has been waged most vigorously, of
course, in civilized countries. The
savage, with his rude weapons and
his Incidence, can not possibly do
as much damage as the civilized
man with his shot gun and untiring
pursuit not only of the birds but of
he dollar.
For some reason or other the hui
man race is much addicted to that
Improbable habit known as "shut-
ing the stable door after the horse
is gone" It would have been a
comparatively easy matter to check
he destruction of those birds some
years ago; it would be possible even
now to rescue them from extermi-
nation by taking little care; but
instead of that, the hunters will
probably be allowed to continue
their ravages uutil any bird more
attractive than the English sparrow
has become a mere tradition. There
are some lessons which can be learn
ed from experience, but the unfort-
innate thing is that the experience
does not always happen twice. If a
man has climbed up place where
he ought not to be, and fallen and
| broken his back, the lesson is not OF
much value to him, because he will
never climb anywhere again. After
| these birds have been exterminated
and their habitat rendered unfit for
restocking, it will not be of much
use to moralize over the ruthless
ness and rapacity which caused
their destruction.
The measures which ought to be
taken will vary in different places.
In some parts of the country it
would be enough, perhaps, to i'm
pose small penalty on hunters
caught shooting birds out of SEASON.
In other cases it might be necessary
to forbid the shooting of certain
species of birds at all. In places
where valuable birds have become
extremely scarce it might be well
to follow some system of breeding
and artificial protection. This would
employ the native hunters who are
now the birds most dangerous enc
mics, and would instill in them q
different idea of the value of the
birds from which they now have.
In fact, many of these men are sim
ply and solely pot-hunters. They
shoot birds and animals, but not for
sport, but because they must make
a living. If they could be paid for
taking care of the wild creatures in
stead of for shooting them, they
would, in many cases, much prefer
that employment.

There seems to be no limit to the
enterprise and push of the people of
Peru, and if the spirit now manifest
is maintained the result will be the
building up of handsome mountain
village that will attract large num-
bers of summer visitors.
The latest move of this people, we
understand, is in the direction of
grading an identifying the some
what extensive ground surrounding
the Stark monument, a very worthy
project, indeed, and one that would
add largely to the natural attraction
and give a better setting to the
handsome obelisk.
If the SITTER is not misinformed
Peru is indebted, largely if not
wholly, to DIR. r. B. Burton of New
York city for the procurement of
this monument Besides the doc
tor has otherwise taken a lively in
terest in the development of a flu
tlire for the little village. He was
instrumental in placing the library
upon a substantial basis and has
built for himself a cottage to be oc-
cupied by his family through the
summer and in other ways shown
his friendship.
Now The SITTER has a suggestion
to make if the good people of Peru
will pardon it. We make bold to do
this from the fact that we have sub
stantial reasons for believing that
DR.. Burtons labors are highly APP
preciated The thought is this:
When work on these grounds is COM
pleted that it be named after the
doctor-Burton Park or Burton
common We submit that this
would be a graceful thing to do and

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.
Four Killed by Fall of Bridge
Orders.


COLUMBIA, S. c., Aug. 27.-An acct
dent at the new bridge which the South
ern railway is constructing across the
Congaree river caused the death of four
men. One other was fatally and two more
seriously injured.
The accident was caused by the falling
of two steel girders about seven feet long
weighing IA tons each. The two girders
were hoisted about midway OF the river
above the bridge. The rains OF the night
previous probably had caused the ropes
holding them in place to slip. The crash
came without the slightest warning.
There were 70 people on the bridge, spec
tators and workmen.
Three OF the men were pinned TO the
bridge and killed instantly. -Four more
were knocked into the river, two of whom
were rescued by a government tug, which
came up from the Congaree locks quar-
ter of a mile away.
