TOLD SECOND HAND.

An interesting True Tale OF Feeding
A bright young woman of Coin, Iowa
who keeps her eyes open to tell an
interesting and true story Of her
chum's experience with food.
She says; She had nervous dyspep
sia for several years and when an at
tack came on she would go to phys
ician and get relief up to last year
when she had the grip which left
her very weak and then her stomach
collapsed and refused to retain any
thing but the very simplest foods.
Soon she could not eat even those and
for seven days she had no nourish'
ment but raw egg and milk and she
was told by physician that change
OF air and scene might restore her
to partial health but she would never
again be well and would probably die
Of consumption OF the bowels.
she always complained OF terrible
distress after eating which was soon
followed by vomiting yet she was so
hungry all the time that she would
try to eat One day She read an ar
ticlc on GrapeNuts and asked herfather
To get some and he went and bought
a package. She took tablespoonful
moistened with little milk The
taste was delicious and satisfying and
to eycryones surprise there was abSo
lutely no pain or trouble in her stom-
ach after eating it.
after a couple of hours she called
for some more Grape Nuts and this
time the amount was doubled and soon
after eating it she fell into sound.

hours, something she had not done
since her illness without the aid Of
morphine She continued to use
Grape-Nuts alone for one week i'm.
proving rapidly all the time and then
began to increase her diet as her re-
turning strength and appetite made
this possible.
For months from the time she
commenced the use OF Grape-Nuts she
became comparatively healthy gin.

than she had done for years She

a Strong Fight.

Baltimore, Md, Sept. 2.-B0th
parties will hold their primaries in
Maryland tomorrow. The result is
awaited with interest throughout the
country as the campaiGn in Maryland
this year is of national importance.
1t involves the election of a United

a doubtful state preceding national
campaign, and the chances OF a dem
ocratic leader as a presidential posi-
bllity Although now controlled by
the democrats, the Independent vote
in this state is the balance of power
and can swing the state either way.
1t is the uncertainty surrounding thu
independent vote that puzzles the po-
litical managers. Mckinley carried
the state both times Eight years ago
the republicans swept it on the state
ticket, and elected United States
senator
Four years ago the democrats re
covered state control Tho republi-
cans are at an advantage this year
because Of factiGnal differences. while
the democrats are comparatively
united.
For the republican candidate will
in all probability be Stevenson Will

ed that the white people were respon
sible for the death of their friend and
they proposed to ayenge it.
A very large crowd was present
at the funeral Of Williams and they
seemed very much excited.
Many threatening remarks were
made and it is known that a brother
of the dead negro has purchased 15O
cartridges.
These suspicious acts put the white
people on their guard. Every white
man in the section has been warned
and they are prepared to defend their
homes.
The negroes, however, seem to real
ize how serious it would be for them
to start any trouble and some think
now that the matter is ended.
The scene of the trouble is Ocho-
lockonee, about fifteen miles from this
city.

BASEBALL SEASON
MAY NOW Be OVER
Pilots May Not Secure
Grounds for Game
with Y. M. 6. AS.
RECORD OF THE LOCALS
They Have Played % Games During
the Season, Winning IA and
Losing 8, Which is an Ex-
ceIlent Showing.

The base ball season may be over, as
far as Brunswick is concerned, and the
Indications are that local fans will not
have the pleasure of witnessing an
other game.
Manager Coleman has succeeded in
making arrangements with the Y. NJ
G. A. team of Savannah for games
Monday and Tuesday, double-header
to be played on Tuesday, but it seems
that the Pilots cannot get the ball
ground Monday.
Some time ago the cOlored labor
union applied to Capt. T. Newman,
who has charge of the park, for the
grounds for Labor day, and he let
them have it. The negroes are to
have an all-day picnic Monday, and
have rentedthe entire fair grounds for
the day.
However, the colored teams have no
ball game on for the day, and it is
probable that the Pilots may be able
to rent the bail park from the labor
union for the afternoon.
1t is to be hoped that satisfactory
arrangements can be made, as much
interest is being manifested in the
games between the Savannah team
and the locals, inasmuch as they are
even for the year. Two games have
been played in each city, each team
winning two, and the last three would
ssae doubt prove exciting. Brunswick
fans are quite anxious to see Harmon,
the star Savannah twirler, do some
3 pitching. He has made great record
during the year, and has only lost one
game.
The Pilots are very anxious to play
these last games, and are sanguine
that they will capture the series.
The record made by the Pilots this
year has been an excellent one, and
will show up with any team as far as
percentage is concerned. The Bruins
wick boys have played % games. OF
that number they have won IA and
lost 8, making their percentage 1886
With the Savannah teams, the Pilots

TO REWARD COURAGE
OF ARMY ENGINEERS
Pensions Advocated for Their Widows
and Minor Children.

Senator Dryden OF New Jersey believes
courage in war Is net shown only l,y
those who carry q sword or musket
and are on the firing line He has an
equally high opinion OF others who
risked their lives in hazardous employ
ment IN connection with army move
ments. In this class he puts the army
locomotive engineers, in whose interest
he has introduced in the Senate bill
pensioning them or their widows and
minor children. A similar bill has been
introduced in the House by Representa-
tive Wiley Of New Jersey.
Inasmuch as army locomotive engin-
eers were not enlisted men and do not
come under any portion Of the pension
rules. special legislation is necessary TO
cover their cases Mr.. Wiley expressed
the sentiment in. favor of the measure
when ne said:
Il consider the courage required by a
man who was coOped up in cab with
his life in peril from bushwhackers
and also from Uampering with his track
and with no opportunity TO retaliate Of
as high a character as that required 70

LOUIS TAX BOARD
SUSTAINED By COURT
Question of Illegal Valuation of Prop
erty Now Settled.

In the case OF the State Of Missouri
VS. the Board OF Equalization Of that
State. Justice Holmes. of the Supreme
Court Of the United States. has given
an opinion affirming the decision of
tho lower court in favor OF the board.
The State alleged that the board.
which appraised properties and lands
in St Louis. did not place the proper
valua lion on those owned by several
railway, telegraph. and telephone COM
panies. as well as other corporations
The direct allegation of turning in
fraudulent valuations. and having an
Interior motive. is also said to have
been made by the State. The lower
court held that the members Of the
board were appointed TO perform their
duty honestly and to the best Of their
ability. and in appraising the properties
they did what they. in their own judg-
ment. thought was fair and just to ali
concerned
