SOLDIER cENTENNARIAN.
Denver Veteran viii Soon Reach One
Hundredth Year.

On May Goth William Taylor, prob
ably the Oldest man in Colorado, will
become a centennarian, says the Den
yer News. Taylor, who is veteran of
the Black Hawk, Mexican and Civil
wars, is living in the Savelle apart
ments at Seventeenth avenue and
Franklin street, in this city, is in splen-
did health and takes two-mile walk
every morning.
He was born May 90, 1906, in Lin
lithkum, Scotland, and the record of
his birth is in the old chapel of that
town. He came to America when a
boy, and was among the first to enlist
in the Black Hawk War in Wisconsin,
the famous struggle with the Indians
in which Abraham first attracted atten-
ton as captain of volunteers. The
Black Hawk War broke out in 1853.
Tailor also enlisted for service at the
outbreak of the Mexican War and
served throughout the campaign. A
shell exploded at his feet at the siege
of Vera Cruz. but he escaped serious
injury. When Fort Sumpter was fired
on this veteran was again among the
first to enlist his services for the I'm
ion cause, fighting in the Wisconsin
regiment that was a part of the re-
nowned Iron Brigade.
In spite of his 100 years Mr.. Taylor
is in possession of all his faculties, has
worn glasses but few years and then
only to read, is not deaf and takes a
daily constitutional that would tire
many man half his age. He is prob
ably the most regular of all of DR..
Coyle's attendants at the Central Pres
byterian Church.

which its first sessions were con.

of the village.

This does not include $4,000 acres of
public land remaining unsold from the

$135, 900. nor the endowment fund,
which amounted January l, 1906, to

This frank and open publicity places
these medicines in a class al M them

merits. They cannot be classcd as patent
nor secret medicines for they are neither
being Of knOcn composition.
Dr. Pierce feels that he can afford to
take the afflicted into his full confidence
and lay all the ingredients of his medi-
cines freely before them because these
ingredients are such as are endorsed ana
most strongly praised by scores OF tine
mcst eminent medical writers as cures
for the diseases for which these medi-
cines are recommended. Therefore, the
afflicted do not have to rely alone upon
Dr. Pierce's recommendation as to the
curative value of his medicines for GER
tain easily recognized diseases.
A glance at the printed formula on
each bottle will show that no alcohol and
no harmful or habt-forming drugs enter

The dead will be buried at Guanta-
namo. The vessel was not injured by
the explosion.
The Kcarsarge's forward turret is of
the super-imposed type; in other
words, an eight-inch gun turret sat
upon the top of the thirteen-inch gun
turret. where the accident occurred
In the lower turret We're twenty-four
men and in the upper turret sixteen
men.
An ammunition hoist connected the
two and had the powder in the lower
hoist exploded probably every man in
the two turrets would have been
killed.
The full charge of powder for thir-
teen-inch gun is too large to be hand,
led by any one man, so 1t Is DIVIDED
into sections in canvas bags, and IL
was three of these, probably Just
enough to fill one compartment in the
ammunition hoist, which ignited.
The ignition is attributed TO smolder-
ing canvas baggins from the last DIS
charge.
