whole Day Given to Grief
All day Thursday muffied drums
beat their requiems, brasses walled out
the strains of marches of the dead,
great men OF the nation followed
funeral car In grief and tears. Through
solid banks of bareheaded men and
weeping women and children, fringed
by wall OF soldiers marching mil
itary and civilians passed with the
momners of the distinguished dead.
First among those who followed the
dead during the journey from the
home to the tomb was the man who Is
now at the head of the government,
Mrs. Mckinley Nears Collapse.
Mrs. Mckinley was unable to attend
the funeral While the last rites were
being said she remained in room of
the family home, dazed, not realizing
that death had come to- her husband,
almost paralyzed mentally. During the
morning. at her urgent request, she
sat alone for a time beside the cof-
fin as it lay in the south parlor of
the house No one seeks to lift the
veil that is drawn over this scene
about the bier of the last earthly
sleep. The casket was not opened.
But she was near the one who ever
had cared for and protected her; near
the dead for whom grief has burned
into the soul of a country the lessons
of manliness and beneficence taught by
his life.

Women and Jewels.

Jewels, candy, flowers, msn-that
is the order of woman's prefer ences.
Jewels form a magnet of mighty
power to the average woman. Even
that greatest of all jewels, health, is
often ruined in the strenuous efforts
to make or save the money to purchase
them. If a woman will risk her
health to get coveted gem, then let
her fortify herself against the in
siduous consequences of coughs, colds
aud bronchial affections by the regular
use of DR.. Boschee's German Syrup.
It will promptly arrest consumption
in its early stages and heal the affect
ed lungs and bronchisl tubes and
drive the dread disease from the
system. It is, not a cure-all, but it is
a certain cure for coughs, colds and
all bronchial troubles. You can get

Roosevelt Injured.

Pittsfeld, Mass, Sept. 3-The
drag containing the presidents party,
bound from Pittsfeld to Lenox, was
hit by an electric car near the coun-
try club here this morning. The
horses attached to the carriage were
killed and several of the party were
injured.
President Roosevelt escaped with
a few bruises. His face was badly
scratched. Secretary Cartelyou was
cut and bruised. Secret Service
Agent Craig is reported to be killed.
D. j. Pratt, the driver of the pres =
dents coach had his skull fractured.
The injured are being brought here
in ambulances. Governor Crane was
in the presidential party and a de-
tachment of Massachusetts cavalry
did escort duty.
Governor Crane was slightly in
jured. The tsllyho was starting to
make the ascent of Howard's hill,
waen the country club car, in cha1ge
o: Motorman Madden, approached
at q good speed. The motorman wss
unable to step the car before the acci-
dent. The carriage containing the
president, Governor Crane, Secreta, y
Cortelyou and John Smith, the gov
ernor's secretary, was struck terrific
blow.
The presidents injuries are so
serious that it will interfere with the
continuation of the New England
tour. Physicians were hastily sum-
moned.
Craig died without speaking a
word. The motorman and conduc-
tor were arrested.

the keeping of INDECENT and decrepid

dead as not to be quicked into life by
such proposition7 The idea of these
poor old Confederate veterans, who
returned from that bloody war after
a glorious but unequaled struggle to
find their homes smouldering ruine,
their live stock and cattle stolen by
the invading vsndals, their worldly
possessions scatterd to the four winds
and their women folk subjected to in
suits and indignities too inhumsn to
mention, living on the charity of men
whose historians have branded the
Men of the South as traitors and
rebels and are falsifying history to
prove their fslsehoods. We want
the dead past to bury it's dead but not
at 80 great sacrifice. Leave the
South's heroes for Southern hands
to care for and Southern hearts to
love.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they can
not reach the deceased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an infamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachisn Tube.
When this tube gets infamed you
have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely
closed deafness is the result, and un-
less the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to it's nor

stoyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is moth
