Motion and James Gillespy. He stated
that he had already seen these three COM
missoners about the matter"

The letter was identified by Mr.. Donel-

read by Commissioner Weatherly.
Continuing, Mr.. Donelson said: We did
not answer this letter. Did not see him
about it. We have never given him a

him about the matter of paying the &c.

MIR. Bremen said that $4,000 of this

IN the Treatment Of HumOurs
with More Than Magical
Effect with
cUTICURA REMEDIES.
A Remarkable Testimonial from
a Nest Intelligent and
Trustworthy Lady.

"a tumor came on my neck and In a
day or two it was as large as half an
orange. l was very much alarmed for
fear it was malignant. My friends
tried to persuade me to consult my
physician; but dreading that he would
insist on using the knife, would not
consent to go. Instead, got Cuticura
Resolvent and Cuticura Ointment. 1
took the former according to direc.
tions, and spread thick layer of the
Ointment on the swelling. On renew
ing It would bathc my neck In very
warm water and Cuticura Soap. In q
few days the Cuticura Ointment had
drawn the swelling to a head, when 1t
broke. Every morning it was opened
with large sterilized needle, squeezed
and bathed, and fresh Ointment put
ON. Pus and blood, and yellow,
cheesy, humorous matter came out. In
about three or four weeks time this
treatment completely eliminated the
tumor. The soreness that had ex-
tended down into my chest was all
gone, and my neck now seems to be
perfectly well.
about i've or six years ago my SIS
ter had similar experience, used the
Cuticura Remedies with magical effect.

Sad Hearts.
Camp Hardee meets with sad hearts
and fearful eyes in futile effort to give
expression to our inexpressable sorrow for
the loss of our beloved and gallant COM
mander, General John B. Gordon, that
peerless hero, who alone has been honored
nvith the high position OF commander of
all the United Confederate veterans. who
among us privileged to participate, can
never forget a thrilling incident of the
reunion at Richmond. After a brilliant
and eloquent address in which General
Gordon, on the score of feeble health,
asked to be relieved of the responsibilities
of the position and rendered his resigna-
ton, ere he had finished speaking, war
worn battle-scarred color bearer with that
banner tattered, broken its staff and
shattered,' rushed impetuously to the
front and with the cry, I nominate for
commander now and forever, General
John B. Gordon electrified that vast as
semblage. which as one man responded
and amid deafening shouts, vociferous APP
plause and tumultuous enthusiasm, con
ferred the imperishable honor, which has
been so zealously and sacredly guarded.

Natural Gas in England.

Natural gas, in which England was
generally supposed to be deficient, has
been discovered there by Americans
and put to practical uses. The Eng
lish people have not yet fully realized
the many advantages it has over coal
and are therefore slow in adopting it.
This is also the experience of many
persons in Our own country in regard
to medicine. They are fully aware
that they need medicine to cure them
of their stomach, kidney or liver
trouble, but are undecided which
medicine to select. Follow the advice
of prominent physicians as we'll as the
example of thousands of persons who
have been cured, and commence taking
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. 1t posi-
lively cures headache, nausea, belch-
ing, heartburn, dyspepsia, constipation,
cbills, colds and malaria. Avoid sub

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease and pres
cribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. j. Cheney & Co.. Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts
