Captain G. B. Jackson, whose
home is near Hagertown, Ind, has
ordered a handsome monument,
which he will erect over the grave
of Black Frank, his famous trot-
ting horse, which died almost
twenty years ago. Black Frank
was one of the most famous horses
of his day, and at the age of %
trotted one of the fastest miles of
the time.
Captain jackson has sent out
Invitations to many horsemen and
other citizens in this and other

ing of the monument on to-day.
The horse was buried in the front
yard Of the owners residence, and
there the monument will be erected

wrapped in silk flag and given a
funeral, which was largely attend
ed. The present monument is the
fulfillment of vow made by Cap

died. An elaborate program has
been arranged to be presented at
the unwilling ceremonies. There
will be speeches, a presentation Of
Black Franks history and notable
performances, music, etc.

that part of the field where they
had viliantly contended for hours
with their intrepid foe. For this
act, the State of Ohio has erected
upon the ground where this serv-
ice was performed a beautiful
monument and dedicated it to his
memory.
Like Lincoln, he prayed that the
passions of the Civil War might
pass away, and that affection for
the Union might 30 restored to ali
the people of this country. For
this reason Ohio has taken all the
more pleasure in erecting this
monument. Fortunately, he lived
to see the evidence of the cordial
feeling, to which he contributed so
much, between the North and the
South, which existed during the
Spsnish-American War.
AS the years go by it is our hope
that whoever wanders over these
fields and locks upon the monu-
ments lovingly erected by his
State to the memory of Mckinley,
will learn to love and reverence
the flag as he loved and rever-
enced it.

There are many symptoms of heart disease,
which so closely resemble those Of more COM
mon nervous disorders as to frequently mis-
lead the attending physician. Often in cases
OF heart trouble the stomach, kidneys, liver or
lungs become affected. Again the symptoms
may be those of weakened nerves, as tired
feeling, sleeplessness. timidity, the patient is
easily excitable and apt to worry without

TRAVELLING IN EUROPE.

Railway Journeys Over There Not as
Comfortable as in This Country.
Going abroadI" asked a much
travelled New Yorker of friend he
met on the pier, according to the New
York Tribune.
"Well, you have my sympathy.
How SO? Well, if you do much trav-
cling about the continent, even sym
pathy won't save you.
"You have never been there. You
can have no idea of what travelling in
Europe is like. / have been through
it; l know all about it.
''They build their railroad coaches
over there, you know on the con-
founded compartment plan. But
that wouldn't be so bad if the service
itself were what it should be. Why,
some American livestock travel with
as much ease as the poorer classes in
Europe. And the best those railroads
afford is none too good. Their trains
are funny little things, with little
toy-like engines and riohety little
cars. They look as if good deter
mined wind could tip them off the
tracks.
"The first thing look for on one
of these trains is a place to put my
feet. No, that's no joke. 1t is hard
work finding place for your feet on
board one of those trains. And
since you are tall wou will have
trouble with the parcel racks. They
call it a rack as a matter Of courtesy,
but as a matter of fact it is more like
one of these women's shopping nets.
With that banging around mans
head most of the joy of travelling
fades away.
"But aside from such little annoy
ances as these, the compartment cars
are real menace to the personal
safety of persons travelling alone, es-
pecially women. On some of the
English roads a new style of car is
now being used that is sort of COM
promise between the compartment
car and the American style car, hav-
ing an aisle running through. the
middle.
"And let me caution you, if you
are to do much travelling about Eu-
rope don't carry all your clothes. Oh,
of course you will have to take
enough along to keep inside the linn
itations Of the law, but mean don't
lug a number of trunks along with
you. In the first place baggage
charges in Europe are high, and, in
the second place, you are lucky if
your trunks reach given destina-
ton the same week you do.
"The man who confines himself to
grip. and an umbrella in his travels
about Europe affords striking con-
trast to the mobS at every European
railway station running about in a
frantic endeavor to locate their
trunks.
eff you must travel in Europe
scale your travelling necessities down
as close as possible"

GOV. NASH.
Presents Ohio Monuments to the
Government.

The ten monuments erected on
Antietam battlefield by the State
of Ohio, including the one to the
memory of President Mckinley,
were dedicated on Oct. IL with
appropriate exercises. Tie pres
ence of many distinguished per-
sonages was a prominent feature
of the day. Gen. Ian Hamilton,
the famous British General, and
party, including Sir Kay Muir, his
brother-in-law, witnessed the dedi
cation with great interest.
Gov. N...su's ADDRESS.
Gov. Nash, in presenting the
monuments to the convention, said
in part:
1t is now more than forty years
since the men whose deed of hon
or we thus honor, contended on
this field. The monuments of
bronze and granite which you
have erected cannot make their
fame more enduring, for their
achievements are inscribed in his
tory's imperishable pages. No
words of ours can add to the lus-
ter of their patriotism, of purest
ray, as it Is already deeply en-
shrined in the hearts of their coun-
trymen. \
Neither are we here to boast
over those who were then our foes.
Ours is loftier, more noble and
patriotic purpose. They are no
longer our enemies. They are our
friends. We are all Americans.
We love our country. We owe
allegiance to one Government.
We live under one flag, which each
of us, an sure, is ever ready to
defend, now and evermore. If,
when we leave this scene and the
lessons here intrucated, our love
of country is not more sincere,
our allegiance to our Government
is not more firmly cemented and
our love for the flag is not more
intense, our coming together will
have been for little purpose.
When the great conflict began
and all seemed lost the President
Of the United States was of suffic-
lent strength and nobility of pur-
pose to look beyond the storm and
utter this message of hope
"Though passion may strain, it
must not break our bonds of affec-
ton. The mystic chords of mem
DRY, stretching from every battle
field and patriot grave to every
loving heart and hearthstone, all
over this broad land, will yet swell
the chorus of the Union, when
again touched, as they surely will
be by the better of angels of our
nature. The better angels now
hold sway. The prophecy of Lin
coin has become history.
There was in this battle a young
soldier from Ohio, by name Will
lam Mckinley. He was the Com
missary Sergeant of the twenty
third regiment, o. V. L. On the
afternoon of the close of the battle,
with much personal risk to him
self, he supplied his hungry COM
rades with cooked rations upon

Of the American Federation of Musicians

Dor, has declared that the Marine Band

affect the future OF the band, which is es-
tablished in the affection Of the people so

cess Of tho labor leaders in preventing the
band from obtaining engagements in other

The destruction of the Marine Band from
a musical standpoint, II not the disintegra-

sought by the labor leaders. At present
the prestige Of the band is such that not
only does 1t command higher prices per
man than other bands. but its travelling ex-
penses are paid by those seeking its ap-
pearance in other cities. Therefore. by pre-
venting its appearance in public, except
when ordered by the Secretary Of the Ma

prive the people Of the country Of an OPT
portunity to hear the band. unless ordered
to perform by the Secretary of the Navy,
and, by limiting the members to small pay,
to reduce the quality of the band to such
an extent that 1t will no longer hold first

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Washington. Aug. N.-Mr Lewis L VIII
liams Of Juneau, Alaska, will not be a
member Of the commission from the Ter.
ritory to the Worlds Fair. after all.
1t was stated at the Interior Department
yesterday that Judge Thomas Ryan, the
Assistant Secretary Of the Interior, has
withdrawn Williams's appointment.
More information on the subject was not
obtainable. Nobody about the Interior De-
partment in a subordinate capacity was
willing to talk. and the Secretary did not
discuss the situation.
Williams Is q Democrat, formerly from
Missouri. His family Is conspicuous in that
State, one Of his brothers being the present
head Of the foreign press service Of the
Worlds Fair. and another an attorney at
Boonville. who once served on the Supreme
Court Of the State.
Several days ago the announcement was
made that Judge Ryan. head Of the Alas
kan Commission. had appointed as his as
sociates Governor Brady Of Alaska and
Lewis L Williams Of Juneau.
Ex-senator Carter. chairman OF the Ma
tiona Board Of Commissioners Of the
Worlds Fair. at once became very busy at
the telegraph Office. He wired his protests
against tho appointment Of williams. and
took the case to the President Ex-senator
Carter. 1t is alleged. based his opposition
to Williams on the grounds that he is q
Democrat and the only member Of the
commission who was to receive q salary.
Williams's salary as a member Of the COM
mission would be $500 year.
Tho case resulted In great deal Of COM
ment. and the Independent press Of the
East very generally scored Carter for OBJ
1ecting to the appointment Of Democrat
The reasons for Withdrawing Williams's
appointment have not been announced Tho
only statement made Is that Judge Ryan
will not insist upon his selection.
