A command of Spanish War Veterans
was installed at Augusta, last week, and
is called the Waiter W. Poore Command
named after corporal Poore of Co. F., lst
Maine Regiment Volunteer Infantry,
who died at Chickamsuga The Kenne-
bee Journal says of him: Corporal
Poore was a graduate of Bowdoin col.
lege and was principal of Arson academy
at the time war broke out and resigned
his position to enlist as private. Just
before being mustered in he was made
a corporal. He was taken sick of ty-
phoid fever at Chickamauga and died.
Corporal Poore was very popular with
the company and in recognition of his
patriotism, it was decided TO honor
his name.

At present term Of Supreme court for
this county, some go cases for violation
Of the liquor law, mostly on indictments
found at this term, 90 to the chief JUS
tice on demurrer. They are certified by
Judge Spear as frivolous and intended
for delay" and there Is hardly posi-
blity that the chief Justice will sustain
these demurrers. They will, In due
course, be returned In time to be passed
upon at the December term by the JUS
tee who shall then preside. This pro-
eedure is one not frequently invoked and
and it Is very unusual for so many pleas
Of this kind to be made at one term.

President Roosevelt had to abandon his
western trip at indianapolis because of
one that required surgical treatment,
there, and return to Washington. The
trouble came from severe bruise he
received on his leg between the ankle
and knee In the collision at Pittsfield,
Mass. He reached Washington yester-
day and is making rapid advance toward
complete recovery. The case is not
serious but the President will have to
keep quiet about ten days.

Navigation of air seems to be making
progress. Mr.. Stanley Spencer is the
most recent scientist to show what he
can do. He made a wonderful trip in
the air over London that is attracting
much attention. He remained on high
for three hours, and in that time sailed
thirty miles in all directions and at va
rous heights, the airship being under
perfect or nearly perfect control. Sue
cessfu navigation of the air is to be an
accomplished fact, sometime, perhaps in
the not distant future.

TIRED AND
WORN OUT.

The complicated female organism is
10 delicately adjusted as to be easily
thrown out of balance. As a result.
health and strength are affected by divers
diseases, womens peculiar inheritance.
Motherhood, family, society. all levy such
drains upon her strength that most wo-
men break under the nervous tension.
The demands upon her nervous strength
are much greater than similar demands
of the opposite sex. Hence she must be
supplied in ~~eater measure with the ee-
ment--iron. hat gives strength. The
reason women feel tired and worn out
and suffer from headache. pains in the
hack and limbs, etc, is because they have
used up their supply Of iron. Menstrual
tion trouble is largely caused by lack Of
iron. DR. Harter's Iron Tonic supplies
this element 1t enriches the bsJO1 and
restores what strain has used up.

COAL LAND OF THE SOUTH.

Scientist have figured, at the
present rate of usage, the number
of years that the coal of different
countries will last.
Many people read these figures and
begin to shudder with cold. There
need be no great uneasiness in this
section of the United States for a
few years at least.
Here are some of the Southern
States.
West Virginia, has 10000 square
miles of coal.
Alabama, has Io6So square miles
of coal.
Kentuckey, has 1900 square
miles of coal.
Tennessee, has $500 square miles
of coal.
Arkansas has 5000 square miles
OF coal.
Texas has 10000 square miles of
coal, approximately.
Six States out of forty five have
6S4So square miles of coal.
England has 1900 square miles.
The United States has more
natural wealth than any two countries
on the globe.
