I am firm believer in that wonder full remedy, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root It's great medicine when a man is not feeling well alter exposure or loss of sleep and irregular meals. It is also great medicine to tone up and regulate 8 man. There is such O pleasant taste to it, and it seems to go right to the spot. I use it and recom- mend 1t. There is more Swamp-Root used by Kansas City firemen than any other medicine twice over.

Russian Baiiooning.

Ballooning under any conditions Is
exceedingly perilous. but the aeronaut
In Russia would appear to be exposed
to danger of sudden death from an un-
usual quarter. Recently large mili-
tary balloon left the fortress Of Oso-
vetre, on the western frontier OF RuS-
sia, and after voyage of four hun
1red and fifty miles descended in the
government of Smolensk. That jour-
uey lasted nineteen and One-half hours.
Passing over Vitebsk the aeronaut
came near to the earth to obtain some
photographs of the town, when two
bullets whistied close by the car. To
escape this danger rapid ascent was
made. but. later or, again coming
1own tc a lower level. fifteen or twen-
ty bullets flew by them in unpleasant
proximity. The descent accomplished.
inQuSies were set on foot. when it was
iscertaincd that the balloon had been
repeatedly fired at by peasants and in
habitants of the districts passed over;
by some because it was believed to be
an evil spirit. by others because it was
taken for flying fish, and by others
again because it was regarded as
harbinger of approaching misfortune.

TERROR AZ JACKSON.
Troops Fire 1T Prowlers Who Sup-
posedly Attempt Attack on Jail.

Troops Fire 1t PrOw1ers Who SIP.
posedIy Attempt Attack on Jail.
AT Jackson, Ky, Tuesday night mob
made an attempt, it is believed, to at
tack the Jail in which Curtis JetN'snd
Tom White, indicted for murder, are
held, and was repulsed only after des-
perate conflict. Another report had it
that the troops fired on company of
men who were approaching the Jail and
that the citizens turned out and indiscrim
mate firing continued all night.
This, with the statement that non
combatants were panic-stricken all
through night of horror and that the
militia TO some extent was demoralized
is the information which the telegraph
brought from Jackson. The newspaper
correspondents were prevented from send
ing details by fear of assassination,
which has been threatened openly in case
they sent out anything to which friends
of either side in this deadly Kentucky
feud objected.
Opinions differ as to whether the at
tack on the Jail was for the purpose of
releasing Jet and White and giving them
chance TO escape or was planned for
the purpose of lynching the prisoners.
AhSiS "aS niiHS Ut littiN ais all ulSut
by the soldiers and irresponsible mem
bers of the community, but daylight
brought the comforting assurance that
nobody had been hurt. The night was
intensely hot and the sky heavily over
cast. Jackson boasts no street lights and
soldiers and citizens passed one another
in inky darkness. The calm that has
hung ominously over the locality for sew
eral days had intensified the anxiety.
Early in the evening about sixty armed
men were noticed in Jackson. At mid
night the prowlers began to sneak across
the street from the bank south of the
Jail. The guards commanded them to
halt. They refused and in reply fired
several shots. The guards returned the
fire. The prowlers then ran about hun
dred yards farther and fired again, and
the guards poured three volleys at them.
Moving objects were discovered on the
north side of the Jail and the guards
fired again and killed a COW. 4 few mo-
ments before the firing a fash of light
ming revealed squad of men in the hills
In the rear of the Jail. 1t was suspected
that concerted attack was to be made
on the Jail and the troops prepared to
fight, but terrific storm was raging
and it was absolutely dark, so that no
further demonstration was made.
Since James B. Marcum was shot ard
killed on the court house steps at Jack
son as result of the -Hargis Cockrill
feud, anarchy has reigned in the county
of Breathitt. The arrival of the troops
quieted things to some extent. but the
undercurrent Of fear has been flowing
ceaselessly.
Tuesday several of the newspaper cor.
respondents put ON uniforms of the mi.
litia, thinking that the garb might save
them from being picked off at distance
by revengeful feudists who have declar.
ed that no news shall be sent out of the
place.

Square Meal in the conf.d.rac1

SQuaFe OAcaI IN the NOnrG0eFaCy.
when I got into the town Of Spar
tanburg, S. c., in the closing days Of
the Confederacy, 1 realized that our
cause was lost, and my idea was to
get out of the country. cross the Rio
Grande, and join the Liberal faction in
Mexico" said Col. Philip B. Thompson,
the noted Kentuckian.

hours. and made up my mind that

prosperity to give me a bite of break

brick mansion, and, putting on a bold
front. marched up to the front door.
In answer to my knock a well-dressed
negro butler came and civilly asked
my business. 1 told him l wanted a
word with his mistress, and pretty
soop a very handsome lady, elegantly
attlred. came and listened patiently
while 1 told her that only the pangs
of hunger drove me to ask a break
fast.
81 will willingly ask you to eat"
said she, If you can put up with our
poor fare. We had scarcely anything
ourselves, and am ashamed to invite
you to the table. but If you are so
hungry perhaps you can put up with
what we have 1 followed her most
willingly and was ushered into a
spacious diniDg-room. The table was
spread with snowy linen cloth; there
was plenty of silverware. the real
thing. and more cut glass than had
ever seen.
But what do you suppose the meal
consisted of? A single item-a plate
of corn bread. Not n blessed thing
besides this bread; no meat, no coffee.
no milk-not the suspicion Of another
dish. Hungry as l was. ate a good
sized chunk of the bread, and on leav-
ing heaped blessings an the head of
my benefactress, but I've never
ceased to wonder at the paucity Of that
breakfast menu. as so oddly contrasted
with the fine home and it's luxurious
furnishings"
