RevirIting Chic,,amnnga.

Comrade William II. Smyth, Carroll
ton, o., has been revisiting the battle
field of Chickamauga, where his regi-
ment fought as part of Steedman's
Division, and he writes a very inter-
esting article for the Steubenville
Weekly Herald descriptive of his visit
He was able to definitely locate his
regiment, and the ground and trees
seemed entirely natural. He was
wounded just at the close of the battle,
but was able to get off the field and
into an ammunition wagon, in which
he rode TO Chattanooga. The battle
field had a weird, melancholy, depress-
ing influence upon him, and he found
that others felt the same

The City of Memphis.

The Presidents journey by water
ended in the city of Memphis, standing
on the last IF the Chickasaw Bluffs, and
which at the outbreak of the war was,
next to New Orleans, the principal mar
ket for the cotton OF the Mississippi
Valley. Before the war the lcvee in
front OF Memphis was wonderful
sight, with the continual arrival of
steamers laden - the waters edge with
bales of cotton. There was an activity
and hustle beyond description, and
wealth poured into the Golfers of her
merchants. Shc paid very dearly for
her foolish adherence to secession in
the Ioss of her trade, but suffered Moth
ing like the rest of the Southern cities
since, owing TO the early date of her
passing back under the flag, she became
a base of supplies, and the Government
put more money in circulation in the
city than had ever been seen there be-
fore. She suffered still worse after the
war from misgovernment, the yellow
fever and other consequences of that
misgovernment. There has been much
said about the evils of carpet -baggism
in the South. Memphis cannot attrib-
ute any of her troubles to this source,
as her government was in the hands
OF her own people. 1t became so bad
at last that she gave up her charter,
and for years was merely a tax Gis-
trict' in the state of Tennessee. In
1880 she started upon new and better
career, put in sewers, got pure water
and began a development as . progress
sive business city. Her population has
much more than doublef since, and
she now boasts of more than 0,000
inhabitants. with a great array of ex-
tensive and prosperous factories and
wholesale houses.
June 6. 1862, there was brilliant
naval battle above Memphis. which
would have delighted the Presidents
own heart. 1t was q fair, square fight
10 a finish between Commodore Mont
gomery's much-vaunted Mississippi
fleet and Commodore Davis's guaboats
and Col. Eilet's rams. The fight was
witnessed by The entire population Of
Memphis gathered on the bluffs. and
they saw all but one of the Confederate
vessels go down under the Union guns

"MULE WAR" GETS HOT,
Honduras Town Stormed by Nicaraguan
Navy-Why the Great Struggle
Is Being Waged

WASHINGTON, d. c., March IS
Trujillo, Honduras, is reported to have
been stOrmed by the Nicaraguan vessels
which have been cruising along the Hon
duran coast for several days.
After weeks of speculation and wild
guesSes, the people of Honduras and Nj
caragua have been informed they are
engaged in this fierce bloodIess war over
mule. 1t belonged to Senior Ireno Sal
gado of ,os Manos. The HOnduran
general-n-chef, Emiliano ChOmorro. had
spied that mule and thought it would
make Il good mount.
Spies from Nicaragua heard of the
scheme and reported to Jose d. Gomez
Nic4raguan minister of foreign affairs
lie realized that this addition to the
HOnduran army would cause dissatisfac-
ton in the Nicaraguan ranks, and adj
vised that the Nicaraguans attach the
animal
Accordingly thirty-fve soldiers we're
sent just across the border and they
came home with the mule. 1t greatly
pleased Gen. DepueltO, acting comman-
der OF the Nicaraguan forces.
Senior Agusto G. Coello, Honduran
minister of foreign affairs, sent a mes
sage demanding the mule and charging
the NiCaraguans with invading Hondur-
an territory. Senior Gomez answered,
denying the charges. He said his men
beckoned to Maud, who trotted across.
Other correspondence followed and both
sides became insulting.

OVERALLS BEAT SKIRTS.
Mans Attire Better Adapted to Garden
inc Than Wnman'S

Mrs Ida NJ Cook, Lynn woman,
wears overalls, tills the soil, guides the
plough, does carpentry work and shoots
small game with the proficiency of an
old marksman.
A few years ago, says the Boston
Herald, Mrs Cook was obliged to give
up life indoors on account of poor health
The physician told her that plenty of
air and outdoor work would restore her
to her former vigor, SO she started TO
cultivate a garden.
One day when she was pulling weeds
out of the cabbage patch she tripped
and stumbled OH her skirt, tearing hole
in it. While going into the house to
take off the torn dress she noticed a pair
Of her fathers ovcralls hanging in the
entry and the thought struck her that
they were just the things for woman
to wear while working in the garden.
She lost no time in putting them on,
found them Il great Improvement on the
clumsy skirt, and has worn overalls ever
since when pursuing outdoor tasks
around her estate.

PLATZ BUYS PLANTATION,
Property in Oaxaca, Mexico, Involved in
Litigation, Taken by Horne-SaIzer
Interests in Company.

Ia CROSSE, Wis, March Isl Spe-
cial. THE property Of the Mexican
Plantation company in Oaxaca, Mexico,
was sold today by the trustees. The
sale was a lively one in which represent
tatives Of the bondholders and three syn
dictates participated The successful bid
der was Max S Platz of La Crosse,
who offered S2O.4
Mr.. Platz stated he represented syn
dictate of local capitalists whose names
he did not divulge. The Platz interest
has been closely associated in the old
company with those of Trustees Henry
Z. Horn and Henry A. Salzer, and it is
believed that al! these will have holdings
in the new syndicate
The sale was delayed by an attempt
in behalf of A. Rosenberg of Milwaukee
to secure an order directing how the trus-
tees should disburse the proceeds. Mr..
Rosenberg's object was to secure the dis
tributiOn of the purchase money among
the creditors instead of the bondhOlders.
whose claims would absorb the entire
amount. Mr.. Rosenberg claims to have
lien on the property.
Judge Fruit issued q preliminary order,
but later Cancelled it on the ground that
the trustees had full authority. Mr.
Rosenberg then entered the competition
and was one of the principal bidders for
the plantation.

MEDICAL WORK NOW IMPERATIVE.
Passage of Stricter Laws Forces WlSCon-
sin to Improve College.

MADISON, Wis, March 16.-[Spe-
cial. With the exception of Wisconsin,
every state in the union which maintains
a state university of any Importance has
a medical college. At the time of the
establishment of the University of Wis
consin it was intended that medical
college should form part of the institu-
tion and medical faculty was actually
appointed. Owing to the lack of funds
the actual organization was deferred.
1t is now proposed to organize such a
school.
The present rre-medical work was es-
tabliShed at the request of the State
Medical society twenty years ago, and
soon won an enviable reputation.
A number of the states have passed
laws providing that all persons desiring
to practice medicine must have four
years training in a medical school of
recognized standing. In consequence of
this change it is now impossible for stu
dents of the university to receive any
credit for the pre-medical work, since the
university has no regularly organized
medical school.
The leading medical schools and state
licensing boards have promised the uni
yersity hearty cooperation.

DRAIN WISCONSIN SWAMPS.
Many Acres Could Be Reclaimed, Says
University Professor.

MADISON. Wis, March 1S.-[Spe-
cial The growing Importance of con
certed action in draining unclaimed
marsh lands of Wisconsin was pointed
out by prof. W. d. Pence of the Uni
verSity of Wisconsin College OF Engi-
necring in lecture on The Drainage
of the kankakee Marsh Region. "
Swamp grass lands in that region, he
showed. increased in value from SO and
$50 an acre to 500 or more an acre as
a result of successful drainage. Because
of the actual increase in crop yield and
the splendid market facilities this IA
nous marsh now bids fair to become one
of the garden spots of the middle west.
Similar results. the speaker pointed ont,
could be obtained in Wisconsin, where
il is estimated that there are about
100000 acres of sw3mpy land.

FOOLED THE PREACHER.
A Doctors Brother Thought Postum
Was Coffee.

Was Coffee.
A wise doctor found out coffee was
hurting him so he quit drinking it.
He was so busy with his practice
however, that his wife had to write
how he fooled his brother, a clergy
man, one day at dinner. She says:
Doctor found coffee was injuring
him and decided to give Postum trial,
and we have used it now for four years
with continued benefit. In fact, he is
now free from the long train of ills that
follow coffee drinking.
TO show how successful we are in
making Postum properly. L will relate
an incident At a dinner we gave,
Doctor suggested that we serve Post
um instead of ordinary coffee.
Doctors brother, a Clergyman, sup
posed it was old fashioned coffee and
remarked, as he called for his second
cup, IF you do preach against coffee l
see you haven't forgotten how to make
it,"
This goes to show that well-made-
fully boiled Postum has much the fla
vor and richness Of good coffee, al
though it has an individuality all its
own. A ten days trial will prove that
it has none of the poisonous effect OF
ordinary coffee, but will correct the
troubles caused by coffee. There's a
