Only q Mask.

Many are not being benefited by
the summer vacation as they should
be. Now, Notwithstanding much
outdoor life, they are little IL any
stronger than they we're. The tan
on their faces is darker and makes
them look healthier, but it Is only
a mask. They are still nervous,
easily tired, upset by triflcs, and
they do not eat nor sleep we'll. What
they need Is what tones the nerves,
perfects digestion, creates appetite,
and makes sleep refreshing, and
that is Hoods Sarsaparilla. Pupils
and teachers generally will find
the chief purpose of the vacation
best subserved by this great medi
cine wich, as we know, "builds up
the whole system"

SURPRISED the Colonel.

Former Governor Pete Turney, of
Tennessee, had peculiar experience
with General Stonewall Jackson. 1t
was in Virginia, of course. Colonel
Turney had never seen the general,
but about midnight received orders
To prepare three days rations and be
ready to move at moments notice.
Two hours later came an order to
proceed in certain direction, and
that at certain point on the road
he would find a guide. AT the
point citizen rode up, and, merely
indicating the direction, rode along
with the colonel in silence. Before
day they came upon plain looking
man wearing smsll cap and mount
ed on little pony. He fell in with
the head of the column and along
they road, still in silence. Soon
after daybreak the newcomer said:
"Coloncl, had you not better halt
your men for breakfast"
al will before long," was the re-
ply. The silence was only broken
half an hour later by similar sug
gestion and similar reply. Final
~ the newcomer stopped, glancing
around at the sky and landscape,
and said: "Colonel, halt your men
for breakfast"
Colonel Turney, thinking that
this was a plain cOuntryman who
felt oversorry for the men, did so.
When the march was resumed the
stranger remarked that the regiment
was struggling good deal, and
when Colonel Turney gave com
mand for the head of the column to
''shortstep'' the stranger said: ono,
that will throw your men all out.
1t should be slow step" This was
a command to which the Tennessee
ans were not accustomed, and putt.
ing private on his pony, the
stranger took the head of the col
umn on foot and showed the men
how to march.
While this was going on, Colonel
Turney asked his adjutant who the
stranger was, and when the reply
came, "Stonewall Jackson" yOr
could have bought the colonel for &
nickel.
He was on foot, the very heaC
man, in such proximity to thu
enemy that the battle was on in hal
an hour, and yet teaching the soldier
how to march.
BY this night movement he flank
ed the enemy and the Tennessee
regiment struck from the rear jus
as the main command struck il
front, making complete rout ofth
enemy.-Memphis Commercially

SAMPSON MAY TESTIFY.
List OF Witnesses for the SchIey Ma
val Court Not Yet Prepared.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 17.-Althcugh every
one concerned is under strict Instructions
not to talk about the Schley inquiry, the
report widely circulated that il is the pur-
pose of the government to keep Rear Ad-
miral Sampson off the witness stand Is dis
cussed by experts and very freely de-
nounced as unwarranted. The list Of wit
nesses TO be subpoenaed is net yet made up.
All that has been done pointing in that
direction has been to obtain from Schley,
and to prepare at the Navy Department,
the names of those naval officers who are
stationed at a long distance and will or
may be needed as witnesses, so that they
can be notified in advance and brought
somewhere near Washington before the
trial begins. After the court meets those
who are already near at hand will De
called as wanted. The government. rep
resented by the juoge advocate, will sub
pcena those whom il wants. Schley will
have the same privilege. and the court it
self may subpoena some whom neither of
the principals considers necessary. Every
thing Will depend, therefore, as regards
Rear Admiral Sampson, on whether his
testimony is needed to make any essential
point either for Schley or against him. If
1t is. he will be called like any other wit
ness; and nobody is authorized at TINS
time to say whether this will occur or not.

PIGEON ADOPTS a KITTEN.
Queer Affection Between N Monon An
imal and the Bird.

Special TO the indianapolis Journal.
MONON, Ind, Aug. 17.-Miss Minnie Tull,
of this place. has a pet pigeon answering
TO the name of Bijou, which several months
ago developed a marked antipathy toward
cats. exhibiting no fear of them and fight
ing them on every occasion. When oppor-
tunity presented 1t would peck the felines
viciously and flop them with its wings. and
the cats, dismayed by its audacity. would
turn tail and run. Recently BijOu has at
tracted attention by exhibiting a liking for
a little deserted kitten, which he follows
wherever it goes. When the kitten takes a
nap BijOu stays near by. He seems TO con-
slider himself the little feline's protector,
for when milk Is placed for it he keeps
other cats away, pecking them when they
come too near. The greatest difficulty the
pigeon encounters is at the time for him to
go to roost, for his partner is more noe
turnal in its habits than he and does not
retire at such an early hour. Bijou refuses
To go to rOOst until the kitten is taken to
the loft where both sleep.

v RECIPROCITY.
Manufacturer Want Commercial
Treaties with Foreign Countries.

PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 1L-Presidcnt
Search, of the National Association Of Man
ufacturers, has called a meeting of the
executive committee CT that organization
for Sept. 4, for the purpose of taking up
the question of reciprocity. TIL subject
Will be considered in all its phases. after
which a call will be issued for a national
reciprocity convention. This action is taken
as the result OF dissatisfaction among
manufacturers who are in the export trade,
and Congress at its next session will be
asked to give the desired relief. The SEN
timent of the manufacturers, says Pres
ident Search. is in favor of securing treaties
of commercial reciprocity will other coun-
tries, with 4 view TO the extension OF
Americas trade I'm foreign lands. Within
the past few months. he says, Russia,
Italy and some other countries have dealt
a heavy blow to our foreign trade by the
levying of a countervailing duty. 1t will
be endeavored TO show to Congress that
American industries nave suffered by the
present tariff laws and their interpretation
and Congress will be asked TO give the
remedy required.

TRAINS TIED UP.
Railway Traffic interrupted by loo
in North Carolina.

LII
ASHEVILLE, y. c., Aug. 1.-THE rail-
road situation to day as a result of the
heavy rains is worse than at any other
time during the downpour of the past week.
One man lost his life in a cave-in in a tun-
mel. Trains on all lines are completely
tied UP, and the Asheville & Spartansburg
division of the Southern has practically
ceased operations. No trains nave been
heard from on this road to-day. Another
big slide occurred on Saluda mountain to-
day. There are a number of washouts
and the roadbed entirely submerged by
water for a long distance is reported to be
the state of affairs on the entire line from
Spartansburg to Asheville. Train No. Is
from Columbia, due here yesterday at Z
D. M, reached Asheville this morning. fif-
teen hours late. The run through was only
possible after several transfers, as the
road is blocked in a number of places.
Passenger train No. 40, due TO leave Ashe-
Vile at Q p. nj. fer the South, was annulled
last night. and No. IA. going in the same
direction, due to leave here at Z this morn
ing, was not sent out. Ii Is expected that
Suartansburg some time during the hight.
No. 30 was made up here this morning and
sent out to MorristOwn.
There is serious trouble reported on the
Asheyille line between Black mountains
and Round Knob. BY a cave-in of a tunnel
one man lost his life and the morning trains
were delayed about ten hours. The longest
tunnel on the mountain. the Swannana.
I.SOO feet in length. began cavinG in at one
end. and a section crew and work train
were sent out to repair the damage. Sec
ton Master Robinson was at work in the
tunnel. and in the very midst of the slide.
when the work train pushed fits way
through, running over him and killing him
instantly.
Every effort possible is being made by
the Southern officials to. get the roadbed
cleared. All wrecking crews and bridge
forces are at work. as well as all section
men i'm the division. The conditions
brought about by the extraordinary stress
of weather are the most serious that have
been experienced by railway men in many
wears
