MARKS AN EPOCH.

The opening of the new Fifth ward
school building today marks an epoch
in the history of the Fairmont public
schools. For several years the work
in the schools has been hlndcred and
hampered from lack Of proper room
and facilities. The town had grown
more rapidly than the means for TAX
Ing care of the school population. The
result was that the rooms we're over.
crowded. In some Instances the half
day session had to be rCsorted to and
In others two teachers occupied one

lIeved. Tie transfer Of teachers and
pupils to the handsome Fifth ward
building will work to tho advantage OF

now has four good ward buildings, a

foundation laid for tho finest High

a similar shrewd play was made sue

that voted against the then Senator
Camden, and laid him aside on the po-

was cordially hated politically by the

HYoMEI CURES cATARRH.
Costs Nothing Unless It Gives Relief.
Sold Under Guarantee.

No matter how severe or chronic a
case of catarrh you may have, consult
Bratton Drug Co. about the use of Hy-
omei. They have so much faith in the
efficacy of this treatment that they
give their personal guarantee with
every outfit they sell that it will effect
a cure, or the money will be refunded.
In many instances Hyomei has cured
catarrh when the patient has suffered
from childhood. Quite a few people in
Palestine who have been unable for
years to get a good nights sleep on &C
count of the disagreeable tickling and
dropping at the back of the throat,
have obtained quick relief from a few
treatments with Hyomei, and the con-
tinued use has made a complete and
lasting cure.
There is no stomach dosing when
one uses Hyomei. Simply breathe its
medicated healing through the pocket
inhaler that comes with every package
and all catarrhal germs will be killed
and the mucous membrane will be
healed.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81, sufficient for at least two weeks
treatment, making it one of the most
economical methods of curing catarrh.
If the outfit does not complete a cure,
extra bottles of Hyomei, if needed,
can be bought for so cents. Remember
that there is no risk in buying Hyomei.
1t costs nothing unless it cures.

DREW ANOTHER'S
PENSION FOR YEARS
A CIVIL WAR VETERAN o FMAS-
SAcHUSETTS USES ANOTHER
MANS RECORD.
Snecial to the Herald.

Special 10 lue I1SIdlu.
Boston, Mass, Dec. 4.-The United
States grand jury here today took up
the consideration of one of the most
unusual cases of alleged fraud that has
ever worried the pension officials at
Washington. The case is that of John
Martin of Marlboro, a gray haired vet
eran of the civil war. According to
the evidence of witnesses the accused
has defrauded the government out of
about $4,000 by setting up as his own
record the civil war record of John
Martin of Uxbridge.
The accused is said to have con-
fessed to the deception and to have adj
mitted he falsely represented himself
as John Martin of UXbridge, a men,
Der of Company ID, Fourth Massachu-
setts cavalry, who was wounded in the
hip and captured by the Confederates
at Magnolia, Fla, and sent to Ander-
sonville. He was pensioned in 1879,
arrears were paid to him back to the
time he claimed he had been wounded.
The Marlboro John Martin is alleged
to have drawn the pension until 1900.
when he received a letter from the
UNbridge John Martin, who was then
in Scotland, informing hi mthat the
writer intended to apply for pension
and requesting him to assist in secur-
ing it. AS a result of that letter the
defendant made a trip to Scotland and
then the Uxbridge John Martin is said
to have discovered the deception that
had been worked on him and the gov
eminent by the use of his name The
Marlboro John Martin agreed to re-
nit the pension to the Uxbridge John
Martin in Scotland, and he did this
until last June, when his failure to do
so led to the exposure of the alleged
fraud and the matter being brought
to the attention of the Federal author
tiles.

New Yorks Huge Aqueduot.

Special to the Herald.
New York, Dec 1.-The first practi-
cal step toward the construction of
New York's proposed new S161 100000
water system was taken today when
bids were closed for the building of
the first section of the huge aqueduct,
which is designed to convey an ade-
quate supply of pure water from the
heart of the CatslSill mountains to the
metropolis. The construction of this
great aqueduct is spoken of as an en-
cheering feat worthy of comparison
with the building of the Panama canal.
The first section is to be ten miles in
length and it is estimated it will re-
quire four years to complete it. 1t
will extend from Hunters brook, in
Westminster county to a point just
beyond'Peeksllill Five million dollars
is the estimated cost of the one sec
ton.
