The nnrn ln Crar.

A cheer for the boys in gray For the old days passed away. For the blood they shed and the lives
 they led. For the long, hard march and the dash
 ing charge, For the victories won and the brave
 deeds done A cheer for the boys in gray! A tear for the boys in gray. As they march through our streets
 today; For their brave youth fled and their
 bright hopes dead For the faltering- tread and the bowed
 gray head, For the long fights cost and the loved
 cause lost
 tear for the boys in gray!

 Miss Ives has given readings this winter in a number of drawing rooms in Cabanne Place, Tower Grove Park, yVestminIster Place, and other fash ionable residence portions of St. Louis.
 A reader CT monologist always la bors under certain diflculties. She has not the effective accessories of cos tune. stage setting and varied person. mel of play to give effects like the actress has. but must instead deal with the abstract, as 1t were, use in- aginary objects, talk to imaginary per sons, etc. depending on voice and bodily expression to give the desired effects.
 This is why a successful reader has sc much harder task before her than the average nearer ,magines.
 Miss Ives, with much application and considerable talent, has bridged this difficulty nicely. and it Is with antici- patton that we awwait the reeitak.
 The Georgia Divisioon, U. D, c. are taking steps towards erecting A mon ument to the memory of Captain Wertz. The President of the Division emphasized the facts of the misrepre- SC ltation of conditions at Andersoon- vile during the war between the States Mrs. Young. Historian Of the Savan- nah Chapter, presented the following resolutions:
 Because Captain Wertz, Superintend- ent of the stoekade prison at Anderson vile. was judicially murdered under false charges of cruelty to prisoners, and whereas. after an interval of forty years these false charges are reiterated on sign board In public places, Tn the pulpit and on monuments, tt IS sug- gested that the Daughters Of the Con fedeTacy of Georgia use their lnhuehce to obtain the necessary funds to place a suitable memorial to Captain Henry Wertz in Andersonville, upon which a statement of facts shall be engraved Tn enduring brass or marble, showing that the Federal Government was solely re- sponsible for condition of affairs at AndcrsonviIle. The following figures and quotations from Stanton, United states Secretary of War, and General Grant. Commander in Chief of the Fed eral armies. furnish all the facts nec- essary What are the facts" Mir. stanton. Secretary of War. in his re- port July g.. 1866. made this statement: Confederate soldiers In Northern pris- ons. 222 .O00; Union soldiers in South ern prisons, 10000; excess of Union prisoners. 50,O00; deaths in Northern prisons. 26,536; deaths in Southern prisons, 22,756
 This report of Secretary Stanton. was corroborated the next June by the re- port of Surgeon-G General Barnes. and when reduced down to pure mathe- matics, means that 12 per cent of all Confederate prisoners died In northern prison. while not rrHre than per cent Union soldiers died in Southern prisons. II these facts are true, and they are all a matter of record, does not this show the falsity Of the seuth's maltreat- ment of prisoners in her hands? Why did thousands Of Union Soldiers die in prison?

DIAMONDS WENT

The dismissal at Peoria of the suit of
an eastern diamond house against Mont
rose & McHugh, formerly prOprietors
of the National hotel at Peoria, and
owners of the Harper and Rock Island
houses IN Rock Island. marks the end
ing Of an attempt to solve the myster-

dollars worth of gems in the Still city

diamonds TO be used as samples. Fail

Unsolved. 1t was claimed that the
package was found in an ash barrel in

not very satisfactory and an effort
was made to recover as many OF the
precious stones as possible. The most
of them were never found.

Desire For Food
Is Important
Appetite Is Necessary In Order To
Digest What We Eat.

We notice that some OF the most
emineAt physicians of this country and
Europe who have made u study of the
process OF digestion unite in the opin-
to proper digestion. Some even go so
far as to. say that there must be a
good sharp appetite for the food eaten
in order that te be properly disested
and assimilated. DR.. ]. u. Pawlow's
essay on The Work of the Digestive
prize. sets forth very clearly the value
of appetite.
There is no other such safe sure
means for creating a healthy appetite
as PabSt Blue Ribbon Beer taken be-
fore or with your meals, and it is an
almost absolute guarantee of perfect
digestion while its tonic and food
value cannot be overestimated.
DR.. Joseph Feisler, of the North
western University of Chicago, in COM
mentinS upon this said: Il fully be-
leve that the moderate use of good
beer at meal times acts as u tonic and
is therefore useful
Er. Feisler stands at the head of his
profession and his words must carry
great weight with those seeking
heath.
Pabst Blue Ribbon is such a beer as
DIR. Feisler recommends. 1t is u prod
uct OF eight-day malt, choicest hops
contains all the valuable food elements
OF the barley in predigeSted form. 1t
gives Pabst Beer it's rich nWrftion and
the fine mellow favor which distin-
guishes it from other beer. This, to-
gether with sixty years of scientific
so far in the lead. No food that comes
from the cleanest kitchen can be
cleaner, purer and more wholesome
than this celebrated beer.
