Denver, Sept 5-"From reports
have received" said General King in
an interview, 81 believe the Denver
encampment will be one of the most
successful and memorable in the his.

of comrades are on the way from all
parts of the country and the Denver
reunion will be one of the greatest
ever held.
One of the most important of the
encampments, in which the G. A. R.
and all it's auxiliaries are equally in
terested, is the revival of the move
ment for new National Soldiers and
Sailors Home at Washington, D. G.
The most enthusiastic supporters OF
the movement are members of the
Department of he Potomac.
Nearly 10000 strangers arrived in
the city during the "a hours ending
at midnight and the arrivals during
the last three days are estimated at
10000.
The decorations and illumination OF

from medicine, and were puzzled as
to what caused the trouble, until a

with it, and advised that we quit it
and try Postum Coffee.

ITALY's GREATEST POET.
Until Recently Has Retained Chair
as Professor in University.

Italy's greatest living poet, Giosue
Carducci, celebrated his 10th birth
day on July 81. Until few months
ago he had retained his chair OF pro-
fessor of classical literature at the
University of Bologna, which he first
occupied in 1860. He made up his
mind at that time to give up poetry
and devote himself exclusively to phil
illogical and literary tasks: but
IL 1867 he brought out his Hymn to
Satan,'' which made a sensation and
established his fame. In this and 9TH
er works he merciIessly castigated
the follies of Italy. While aware that
political verse is ephemeral, he wrote
a good deal of it. During the Franco
Prussian war he sympathized strongly
with the French, and bitterly attack
ed Wilhelm l. Perhaps the oldest Of
his poems is that in which he likens
Robespierre to Kant.
