signs rhat the trouble would pass.
Bryan's speech and that Of Senator
TuIman had been listened 10 attentive
ly. When applause was given there
was no disposition 10 prolong IL. The
delegates were evidently in a business
like frame Of mind and determined TO
adjust and close the incident that had
been so dramatically injected into the
situation.
Senator Daniel was recognized. but
had spoken only few words when a
delegate from Arkansas said that he
could hear nothing because Of the
noise among the delegates and after
some conversation between him and
the chairman the later directed that If
the delegates made any trouble the

FIERCE CLAMOR FOR 4 VOTE.
AS Eamlin finished il was evident
that the delegates were heartily sick
Of listening TO speeches and were rap
idly losing temper over the constant
succession Of speakers who mounted
the platform, and they clamOred fierce
ly for vote; but Chairman Clark, true
10 his promise that every man should
have q fair show, recognized Senator
Csrmack Of Tennessee.
Carmack declared that Bryan had
said that the nomination Of Parker
would be declaration enough on the
money plank.

hastily. 4 beg the gentleman's pardon,
but I never said that"
John s. Williams supported Bryan
in his statement, and Senator Carmack
accepted the correction The Senator
took occasion TO deny that he had ever

Cdtarrh of Stomach From

Hon. NJ. c. Butler Of South Carolina

State for two terms. In a recent letter
to The Peruna Medicine Co., from Wash

II can recommend Peruna for dyspep-
sia and stomach. have been using your
medicine for a short period and 1 feel

derful medicine besides a good tonic"-
N. C. Butler.
The only rational way to cure dyspep-
STA is to remove the catarrh. Peruna has
won its way into thousands Of homes and
millions Of hearts by it's marvellous cures
of catarrhal affections Peruna does not
produce artificial digestion. 1t cures ca
tarrh and leaves the stomach to perform
digestion In a natural way. This is vast
ly better and safer than resorting to ar
ti1cial methods.
Peruna has cured more cases Of dys-
simply because 1t cures catarrh wherever
located. If catarrh is located in the
head. Peruna cures it. # catarrh has
chial tubes. Peruna cures it. When ca
tarrh becomes settled IN the stomach,
Peruna cures it, as well in this location
as any other.
Peruna is not simply a remedy for
dyspepsia Peruna is a catarrh remedy.
Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is
generally dependent upon catarrh.

INDEPENDENT FIGHTING.
When the Boys Became Separated and
Had to Take Care of
Themselves.

Things happened queerly in the
army" said Sergt. Sam Grimshaw, ac-
cording to the Chicago Inter Ocean.
when Carlin's division was driven
back at Bentonville, N. g., our brigade
(the Third of the Second division) was
thrown out to check the confederates'
advance. The underbrush being heavy,
we ran into the confederates unawares
and got in the first volley to our ad-
vantage. We had fired six or eight val
leys when the brigade commander or
dered us to cease firing. This gave the
rebs chance to notice that both our
wings were in the air and they pro-
ceeded to take advantage of the situa-
tion.
when the brigade fell back, I took
to tree, and Comrade Giles took an
other to my right. We felt pretty Sc
cure, as we had seen confederates only
in front, but | had fired only once and
had reloaded and was putting on the
cap when a Johnny who had gotten in
my left flank took shot at me, tear
ing 13 big holes in my folded or rolled
blanket This convinced me that he
had my range and that l was out
f!anked, and | hiked for more con-
genial cline. l came across Col. Clan
cey and we Travelled together to where
the regiment was in line along a fence.
| had been with my company only a
few minutes when | received a musket
ball that put me out of the fight for
the day.
"In the same fight the Fourteenth
Michigan and a confederate regiment
both got lost from their brigades and
had an independent fight of their own,
in which the Fourteenth whipped the
rebs and captured their flag. One of
the boys of company G was sent hack
after a box of ammunition, and, the
lines changing, he walked on his return
into the confederate lines. The con-
federates thought it was a great joke,
relieved him of his ammunition and
gun. and started him to their rear
without guard. He made a flank
movement, got around their line, and
came back to the company in three
hours.

and myself had Joined forces, so that
we might splice pup tents to the best
advantage. There being plenty OF

STORY ABOUT GEN. GRANT.
"Cincinnatus' and He Had to
Have That Animal.

This little story about Gen. Grant is
told by Col. II. A. Chadwick, says the
American Tribune:
I'm 1864 Gen. Grant was a good deal
at headquarters in Washington. He
loved fast horse, and he thought the
big chestnut Cincinnatus he then
drove would take the dust from no
other horse in Washington One day
he was spinning along the road on
the outskirts of the town, when he no.
ticed a rough-looking gray horse trot-
ting along to two-wheeled butcher
wagon filled with meat. The general
flew past the wagon, but the gray just
set back his ears and the way he made
the mud fly along that road was just
astonishing. He got his nose to the
rear of Grants buggy, he pulled his
head up to the hind wheels, and his
forequarters were soon pattering along
in swift, never-breaking trot near the
heels of the great Cincinnatus. Grant
got mad and used his whip, the butcher
driver laughed wickedly, and held the
reins taut on the gray, and the meat

him. Here's his check signed in blank,

short, l found who owned the horse,
and, as luck would have it, got him
into my stable for $3.50, and ten min

Story Of "oId Tecumn.n

The following story is told of Gen.
Sherman, the time being just after his
falling to break Joe Johnston's front
at Kenesaw Mountain: 1T was plain
that more fianking must be done, and
so the Great Flanker' ordered Gen.
Cox's division of the Twenty-third
corps to make detour and threaten
the enemy's left. This involved a long
march, and Gen. Sherman made his
way to the top of high hill. where we
were lying, to enable him to overlook
the country and see operations better.
He sat on stump with a map spread
out on his knees, and was giving Gen.
Cox directions as to his line of march.
After doing this he mounted his horse
and started away. but, after having
gone little distance, he shouted back:
See here, Cox, burn few barns oc-
casionally as you go along. l can't un-
derstand those signal flags, but l know
what smoke means Chicago Mail

Allison has been in the senate now
for over 30 years and prior to March 4.
1873, when he took his seat in the
chamber at the north wing of the cap
itol, he had been a member of the
house of representatives for four con-
crosses, SO that legislation comes to
him now by instinct and he can accom-
plish more without apparent effort than
many Others can accomplish with much
straining and strenuousiiy. He is IS
years old now and he has been in con-
gress since he was 81
Allison has greater facility in shap-
ing legislation than any other man who
has been in either house or senate in
many years. He has positive genius
for parliamentary phrasing, securing
by an apt word or sentence exactly the
legislative result which he desires. On
conference committee, where so much
of the important legislation OF congress
is really framed, Allison is irresistible.
Without exciting antagonism or SEEM
ing to be insistent he almost invariably
secures exactly the results which he
sets out to obtain. With a smile and
suggestion he touches unerringly the
hidden spring which opens up what
looks to his antagonist as compro-
mise. but which in truth results in pre-
cisely the aim he had in mind.

Hon Bourke Cock the men and the
ran. occasion the floor
of the house may we'll become the
arena for dramatic scenes equal in in
tensity and interest to any of the great
days which once made the popular
branch of congress the center of attrac-
ton for those who throng the capitol.
Bourke Cochran, of course, is giant
among popular orators. 1t is doubtful
whether in all American history there
has been any man who could exceed
him as an overpowering oratorical per-
sonality before popular assembly. He
is big of body, big of head, big of
voice, big in magnetism, with a genius
for pharse-making and wealth of in
vective with which no man of the pres
ent generation can compete.
1t is doubtful whether IN all the his
tory of American politics there has
been a more impressive oratorical tri
umph than that which Cochran won in
the Democratic convention of 1892 at
Chicago. In that year Cochran attend
ed the convention as a member of the
Tammany delegation from New York
who were bent upon defeating the nom
ination of Grover Cleveland, and who
united in written appeal to the dele
gates from other states against Cleye-
lands nomination on the ground that
it would surely involve the loss of the
Empire state to the democratic party.
The convention was in continuous ses-
sion in the great wigwam for hours
during the day and far into the night
The rain beat upon the roof, the great
crowd of 10000 people surged and
howled end altogether it was an unruly
mob. The sentiment for Cleveland was
dominant and the democratic managers
under the lead of William C. Whitney
his nomination. For hours the most
effective orators in the party had been
appealing from the platform, some in
favor of Cleveland, others against him,
but no matter who they were or whom
they favored they were drowned in the
fury of the crowd. Their oratory was
a voiceless pantomime. Then at three
o'clock in the morning Cochran rose
and plowed forward to a place on the
platform. He had not been speaking
two minutes before he had the great
auditorium silent under the spell of his
eloquence and he held a hostile audi
ence there for an hour, while he mar
shalled argument after argument
against the former president, who was
as he described it popular on every
day except election day" Then after
he had concluded his speech the con-
vention went calmly to work and
placed in nomination the man against
whom he had let loose the floods of his
eloquence.

MAINE PORK AND BEANS.
They Were "Just Splendid," Said the
Johnnies Who Drove the
Yankees from Them.

In the early part of the Shenandoah
Valley campaign Gen. N. P. Banks was
in command of the column that Stone
wall" Jackson drove out of Winchester.
Among the union soldiers was men,
ber of the Tenth Maine Infantry, who
recently recalled an interesting Incl
dent of that time, and related it to
correspondent of the Boston Herald. 1t
is quoted below in the veterans own
words:
II shall never forget how Gen.
Banks looked after our safety when we
were driven out of Winchester. Our
regiment, owing to our position in the
column, was among the very last to
leave. and the Johnnies were nearly ON
us when we began our retreat. But
Banks himself was one of the very last
to go. He seemed to forget all about
his own safety in his anxiety to get his
men out of the way of the enemy's ad-
vance guard. He rode this way and
that way, looking out for the wagons
and horses and camp equipage, as well
as the men, and by the time the last
were moving he was so close to the
Johnnies that | wonder to this day why
he didn't get picked off by some sharp
shooter.
But although thanks to our general,
we all saved our bacon, we fellows of
the Tenth didn't save our baked beans.
Just as we were sitting down to the
hot, delicious-smelling. down-east dish
we had to get up and get, and leave
them to the enemy! tell you it was
eXasperating.
"A little later, when Banks led us
back to Winchester, one of the very
first things we saw was thank you
from the Johnnies written with white
chalk on an old building:
" Compliments of the Georgia Tigers
to the Maine Tenth! Those baked
beans were just splendid!'

native town of Racine, Wis, while he
lay in a southern prison, awaiting an
opportunity to communicate with those
who were mourning for him at home.
He was a member of the first regiment
enlisted from Wisconsin and he was
wounded at the battle of Bull Run and
left on the field grievously wounded. A
year later he appeared in Washington
and amazed Senator Timothy o. Howe
by walking into his committee room
and asking for furlough in order that
he might rejoin his regiment. The SEN
ator locked at him hard: But you are
dead, Bill" he exclaimed. How can
you go back to your regiment?" New
ertheless Upham persisted and Howe
took him up to the white house. Uncle
Abe" bent kindly eye on him. No,
can't send you back to your regiment"
he said. You have already done every
thing a man can do for his country.
You have fought bled and died for
her You are officially recorded as dead
and of course you can't do any more
fighting in this war l can't send you
back to your regiment, but l tell you
what can do. l will send you to West
Point and make a soldier of y2u," :
And sure enough TO West Point the
boy went and graduated into the regu-
lar army in the same class with Quar-
termaster General Humphrey and
several others who have made high
rank in the army. \
Upham remained only a short time
in the service after the close of the
war and then went back to Wisconsin,
where he settled down and went into
the lumber business, marrying in due
season a little girl who had been aff-
anced to him as a boy and who had
worn black for him when the news
came to Racine of his demise. She has
to-day the scrap book she made then
containing the newspaper accounts OF
the funeral services with the eulo-
gums of the first Wisconsin soldier
to fall in the war.
When Upham was mentioned for
governor there were two others In the
race and it was pretty three-ccrue cred
fight. The first ballot resulted ~ no
choice. Then one of Upham's support
ers rose and read from the Chicago
Inter Ocean the story of how he once
died for his country. The tide was
turned his way and he was nominated
on the next ballot.
