Daughter Of Davis
Tells of Miles Affair.

Colorado Springs, Colo, February
G -"When General Miles ordered
manacles placed upon Jefferson Davis
it took six men to do 1t, and my
father often said to me it was the
bitterest moment OF his life," said
Mrs. j A. Hayes, daughter OF Jeifer.
son Davis, who is receiving hundreds
OF letters every day concerning her
recent newspaper communication
concerning Gen. Miles alleged attack
upon her father. Many OF the letters
are uncomplimentary.
"At Fortress Monroe when Miles
placed my father In irons without
authority OF the government, father
legged to be shot instead Of being
treated like common ielon. l was
with my father when he was captured
in the woods OF Georgia. When he
heard that Lincoln had been killed
he said "This is the biggest blow
that could have struck the South.
Lincoln was good and just man,
according to the light given him."
Seen. Miles insulted my mother"
said Mrs. Hayes, "and my father,
feeble and emaclated az he was,
shook the iron gratings Of his cell
and said to Miles: III could get at
you | would tear you limb from
limb >"

State Assembly Behind in Work.

Jefferson City, Mo, Feb. BE.
fore the end of this week the seventy
days in which the general assembly
Is supposed to do its work will be
half gone. Hall OF its work is not
done, however.
The senate is we'll up with its work,
but the house is ssid to be fully a
week behind with it's calendar. 1t
has passed just twenty-five bills.
Whether the delay Is caused by the
senatorial deadlock or because OF 80
many new members is problem
which is worrying the legislators
greatly.
Speaker Hill Is said to be a hard
worker and Is trying hard to hurry
business along, but he has found the
proposition a difficult one when a
score or more OF orators want to
make speeches on every measure that
comes before the house.
So far only one bill has been pre-
sented to the Governor for his sigma.
ture, and that is Of a purely local
nature concerning the Maries des
Cygnes river.
Much work has been begun but how
1t is to be completed within less than
forty days Is what is puzzling the
thoughtful legislator.

Doctors have been loathe to endorse a
catarrh remedy because catarrh and
catarrhal diseases have puzzled the
medical fraternity for many decades.
The popular endorsements that
Peruna has received at the hands Of the
people have induced great many doc

More prominent physicians use and
endorse Peruna each year.

Catarrh is systemic disease durable
only by systemic treatment. A remedy
that cures catarrh must aim directly ut
the depressed nerve centers. This Is
what Peruna does.
Peruna Immediately invigorates the
nerve centers which give vitality to the
mucous membranes. Then catarrh dis
appears. Then catarah is permanently
cured.
Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found per-
manent use in so many homes is that IL
contains no narcotic Of any kind. Pc
runa is perfectly harmless. 1t can be
used any length of time without acquir-
ing drug habit. Peruna does not pro-
duce temporary results. tits permanent
in its effect.
1t has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause of catarrh. There are
a multitude of homes where Peruns has
been used off and on for twenty years.
Such q thing could not be possible II
Peruna contained any drugs Of mar.
cotic nature.

Bro. Lucas, of the Osceola Demo-

liver wasn't acting and he dipped his
trenchent pen in gall and gave it full

the Goth judicial circuit, complains
that his city officers are using 80 to
80 per cent OF the city taxes; asks the
legislature to abolish the office OF
county treasurer and complaining
that the bill to compel all counties
to adopt school supervision will in
crease the cost to st. Clair by 81 600,
and shifts at the Dickinson bill to re-
duce freight rates and says he ought
