skill and quiet dignity. The ladies
seemed to realize that they were there
to work and in accord with the spirit
of harmony and fraternal fellowship,
the business of the convention was
dispatched with precision and order.

were interrupted with a pleasant exer-

casarrh Of the Stomach.

When the stomach is overloaded;
when food is taken into it that fails to
digest, 1t decays and infames the mu-
cous membrane, exposing the nerves.
and causes the glands TO secrete mu-
Gin instead OF the natural juices Of d.
eestion. This is called catarrh OF the
stomach. For years suffered with ca
tarrh of the stomach, caused by 1ndi-
gestion. Doctors and medicines failed
to benefit me until I used Kodol Dys-

The Boone Reservoir.

The city of Boone, which has been at
work sinking a new well to be con-
nected with its reservoir out of which
the city water supply is pumped, made
the connections with the reservoir FRI
day. The Boone News. in speaking of
the quality of the water. states that the
water is as cold as If 1t had been re-
ce;yed directly from the mains. which
Is question over which some doubt
has been expressed locally since the
advisability of building 81 reservoir has
been discussed. The News says:
FRIDAY afternoon at 5 O'Clock the
new we'll was connected with the reser-
voir,. 5000 feet distant, and pumping
was commenced. The well is in the
fair ground addition in the southeast
part of the city and will supply the city
with all the water needed for many
years if the present supply holds out.
"As soon as the main was connected
with the reservoir the steam was
turned on and for five hours was kept
at a pressure of $50 pounds. AT 3
O'clock Friday evening the water in the
reservoir had gained an inch and at .
O clock the water had risen about two
feet. Not one leak was found in the
main during the time Of this hard
pumping and everything is very salts
factory to those in charge.
Last evening Engineer Kaspberg
stated that the pumping would be bet
ter today than then and that the reser-
voir could be filled in a short time after
getting started. The water is much
better than that now being pumped
from the old well at the water works
and is almost as cold as ice water on
coming from the MAINS"

Objects to August Celebration.

Editor Times Republican: In a re-
cent issue of the Times Republican
there appeared in the news columns a
notice of the approaching celebration
in this city, by the coiored people, OF
emancipation day, to occur on Aug. !.
The statement is made that the affair
VIII be in memory of President Lin
coins proclamation that ordered the
slaves of the United States set free.
Now the question was asked me. "How.
is it that we celebrate in August in
stead of September" I wish to reply
that as citizens of the United States we
have no right to celebrate such an
event only on Sept. %. as that was the
date. in the year 1862. when President
Lincoln issued his proclamation. The
first move to free the negroes was COM
menced when bill passed the British
parliament in 1888, declaring all slaves
free on Aug. /, 1884. This bill carried
the proviso with 1t that house serv-
ants and field slaves should remain a
certain number Of years. Finally, on
the first of August, 1888. slavery on all
British soil was terminated, and since
that time, thru a series of prociama-
tons, slavery has ceased to exist in all
the West India Isles. the last one going
into effect on Oct. 6. 1885.
am not attempting to criticise those
who are promoting the celebration, but
I believe that in going before the public
we should know just what we are talk
ing about, and what we are celebrating.
AS a race we are not properly celebrat-
ing the time when Abraham Lincoln
dacIare5 with tha breath piysn him hy
the Great Creator of the universe, that
all slaves were to be free, but rather
the event declaring all slaves free on
the British Isles. The celebration here
will be success. and we will all work
to make it so. but let's keep history
straight. I. l.. BROWN.
