Negro Collector Gave Bad Cheek in
 Settlement of His Accounts.
 With seventeen separate and dis tinct charges of embezzlement star ing him in the face. James s. Fair occupies cell in police headquar- ters.
 James T. Coleman, who swore out the warrants, charges that Fair cof- lected money for him and after di- verting it to his own use gave him a bad check in settlement.
 Coleman is light colored educa- ted negro. who is in the real estate business on Dexter Avenue and makes a speciality of collecting rem tals. Fair was employed by Cole man to assist him in making ths~col- lections. and it is alleged that Fair neglected to turn in some of the money collected.
 Coleman called for settlement and a check was given by Fair on a bank at Greenville, which was return ed marked IN. O." Coleman then began to~make an examination of his books with the result that sev- enteen separate warrants were sworn out which were served by Officer Loe. As bond of $100 in each case is required. it looks as if Fair will have to remain in custody until his case is called in court.

CATARRH CAN BE CURED.
Kill the Germs by Breathing Hy-O-mei.
 Gives Quick Relief.

Many people who have suffered with
 catarrh for years naturally feel that the disease cannot be cured, and be- come discouraged.
 Their failure to get relief is due to the fact that they have not used the right remedy. Catarrh is an affection of the head, throat and lungs, and can not be cured by stomach dosing.
 The only scientific and natural treat ment for this disease is Hy-o-mei, which is breatheS through a neat pocket inhaler, Sd that it's healing medicated air reaches the most remote air-cells, kills all catarrh germs. and restores the mucous membrane of the nose, throat and lungs to a healthy condition.
 Hy-o-mei Is the only cure for catarrh that has ever been sold with the under standing that 1t was to cost absolutely nothing unless it cured. E. G. Fowler sells Hy-o-mei in this way and Is al- ways ready to refund the money if it does not relieve and cure catarrh.
 The healing and antiseptic balsams of Hy-o-mei perform their purpose to perfection, and by using this remedy for few times each day, you can soon cure yourself of any catarrhal troubles.

 pleasant to know that the idea of Me- morlal Day was unwittingly suggested by the devotion of the people of the South to their heroes. In the early spring of 1868 I was one of a party, the other members of which were Col Charles l.. Nelson of Chicago. Miss Anna Wilson and Miss Lena Farrar of Boston, afterwards the wife of Col. Wilson, to make pilgrimage to the battlefelds of Virginia. General Lo- gan had long been anxious to make a personal inspection of this section of the country, over which the great con- hict ragged, in order to enlarge his knowledge of the entire course Of the war, his own part in the actions hav- ing been in the West. with the Army of Tennessee. Unfortunately, however, circumstances prevented his accompa- nylng me- and he did not see with his own eyes what really prompted the first Decoration Day. It is my pleasure to revert to it and pay a drst tribute 10 the gentle people whose acts gave me the inspiration that resulted in the Decoration Day of today.
 No one who has never made the pill grlmage that was my lot can conceive dlately after the war. The ruin seemed complete. We found it well nigh inn possible to get any sort of conveyance from points on the railroads to the battlefields, and those men who were acquainted with the country and the history of the battlef1elds were all too busly engaged in repairing their fall en fortunes to spare the time to guide us. Yet, there was no spirit of en-? mity in their disinclinati0n to help us. but merely the pitiful fate of wars disasters and the necessity for con- stant toll to rebuild the waste caus ed by four years of bitter strife. We final ly, however. managed to get wagons of one sort and another from place to place, as we journeyed, and an oc- caslonal guide who had participated in the battles whose sites we were visiting It was probably the most in teresting experience in all my life. yet one which I would not care to re- peat. for not until then had I known the true purport of war.
 Incident That Gave the Inspiration.
 But 1t is not Of this that I would speak, but of the incident that gave me the inspiration which resulted in Decoration Day. We were in Peters burg. Va. and had taken advantage of

British Will Curb Anti European
 Movement by Force.
 Lahore, British India. April 27- Rifles and twenty rounds of ball cart ridges have been served out to the local marked unrest among the Hindoo stu dent elements.
 The publication of inflammatory and seditious articles in the native news papers melting race hatred against the Europeans and demanding native con- trol of the government of India by means of an elected parliament has been followed recently by riots at La- hore and elsewhere in the PunJab and by attacks on Europeans. Profession al and political agitators are now fo- npenting strikes on the railroads and the government has concluded that 1t is time to suppress the rioting by forceful means if necessary.
 The authorities are satisfied that a determined front will speedily end the outward signs of disaffection, espe- cially as they have the unanimous support of the great Mohammedan pop pulation which at numerous mass meetings have emphatically condemned the anti European movement.

the fact to inspect the oldest church there. the bricks of which were brought from England. There was an old English air all about the venerable structure. and we passed to the building through the church yard. covered with graves, after the manner of English churchyards. The weather was balmy and springlike, and as we passed through the rows of graves I noticed that many of them had been strewn with beautiful blossoms and decorated with small flags of the Confederacy. The sentimental idea so enwrapped me that I inspected them more closely and discovered that they were every one the graves of soldiers who had died for the Southern cause. The idea seemed to me a beautiful tribute to the soldier martyrs and grew upon me wniie was returning to Washington. Generai Logan was at that time Commander in Chief of the Grand Army of the Ke- pubic, with his headquarters in Wash- ington, and as soon as he met me at the station I told him of the graves or the Confederate soldiers Hhad seen Tn the cemetery in the chrrchvard at Petersburg. He listened with great in . tense, and then said: ,,,
 What a splendid idea! We will have it done all over the country, and the Grand Army shall do 1t. l will is- sue the order at once for National Memorial Day for the decoration Of the graves of all those who. died for their country"
 He immediately entered into confer ence with several of his aides, with view to selecting a date which should be kept from year to year.. He realized that it. must be at a time when the whole country was blooming with fiow- CTS, and May 30th was finally selected as the best season for the annual ob- servace. It was not too late for the warmer States Or too early for the cooler ones.
 Mrs. John A. Logan.
 Selected.
 From the above selection we find that 1t was really the devotion of Southern women that caused General John A Logan to issue an order for ob- servance of Memorial or Decoration Day by the G. A. R. How proud we should be of our Southern heritage.

AN AVALANCHE OF COMPLIMENTS.
 A Montgomery woman who takes very Important and prominent part in club patriotic and philanthropical work 6f fhe cft5 was quite overcome by n6fuber of compliments she chanced to receive--all In one day--recently. In the morning she met a friend on the street who she feared, felt she had grievance against her, so she went ntraight away, as is her won't and made herself especially agreeable. She aurely impressed herself favorably on her friend, who said:
 Ay.1Annie, you certainly have developed into a fine woman. Your mother al- ways said you would" and after pause, you were a simple child!'
 She went about the round of work thbught of that simple child" She had not known she had been one.
 Tn the afternoon friend called to ask her as to. the significance of an unusual word. She told her. The friend stayed a bit and later asked for a. dictionary, looked up the word. , found the definition given to be cor rect, then said:
 Annie, you know lots more than reopie would think
 That compliment knocked the Sim pie Child" out of her head and she thought all afternoon of the woman whom people" would not take for knowing much.
 .sAfter tea, her young son came to his mother to be helped in the solving < of difficult mathematical problem and when he had received the assis- tance, and the task was done and ex pfafned clearly to his young minds satisfaction. he kissed his mother and said.
 Mama, you will certainly be a smart woman if keep on going to school to Prof. -"

If there are any Northern visitors in Montgomery who would like to see one of the prettiest sights on our nature show program just now. they can be advised to drive out on the Carter Hill road beyond the Country Club and feast their eyes on the marvelously beauti- full primrose fields.
 The primrose Is in all its glory just now and such wealth of bloom does not occur every season. /It has been several years sipTe Nature has been so lavish in beauty In this line. The field looks like sea of pink and the sight of it would almost cause an after dream of drifting in phantom boat to zither music or a swim with a mermaid for companion in the pink sea Of won drous beauty.

LETSON BALLET
ON MANHATTAN
is WELL PLEASED WITH SHORT
VISIT TO GREAT
CAMP.

Letson Ballet, of the firm of Muir
phey & Ballet, returned yesterday
from Manhattan, well pleased with
his short visit to the camp.
81 took a pretty good look over
the ground" said Mr.. Ballet, land
1t looks very good to me. Original
Manhattan is going to be a great
mine. There is no doubt of it; and
Manhattan Consolidated is already
one, as everyone knows. They are
pegging away at Mustang, taking out
the ore, and it is in better condition
than ever.
Thanksgiving is in fine shape.
They are going to put up a hoist
right away, having purchased that of
the Oddie lease on the Mohawk.
They have struck water in the
Thanksgiving; in fact all the mines
that are getting to any depth, find
water; enough in most cases to OPP
crate a mill. They are sinking on
the Breyfogle and have a good chance
of getting a mine.
THE Forked Stick is getting down
to work, and there is no doubt that
they will get the ore. They have the
identical formation of the Thanks
giving and the dipping of the hill
gives it a good show. The country
is in slate and porphyry, and has
been broken in such a way by vol
canic disturbance that the ore wells
up through every flssure where there
is porphyry.
THE Rocklin has this same forma-
tion and will sink three or four
hundred feet from the shaft of the
Thanksgiving. The property is about
one hundred feet lower than the
Thanksgiving, and the chances are
that the formation of the Thanks
giving will be caught at the 200
foot level.
There is lots of interest being
taken in Manhattan at the present
time, and in the stocks as we'll as the
mines. No effort is being made to
advertise the district, but they are
going right ahead with the work, all
the way to East Manhattan. You
will not find so many men on the
streets, but you will find them in the
hills and in the brokers' offices. They
are in the hills looking for claims
and in the brokers offices looking
for stocks.
"The material for one mill has al
ready arrived, in which the different
mining companies have taken an in
terest, and there will be others to
follow this one, as soon as it gets
going. The Eastern people are get
ting in there very quietly and are
becoming interested to a considerable
degree"

ore body has widened SO that at
thirty feet the entire bottom of the
shaft is in ore with no walls in sight,
while the Ore now being hoisted runs
from 10 per cent to so per cent cop
per.
The property which called Dibb-
lees first attention to this district
the Royal Blue-was purchased by
McCauley & Robichau than six
months ago. Robichau established
his camp at the foot of his mountain
and prospected thoroughly. In places
he found stringers of high grade
copper and in other places were
lodges thirty feet wide that showed
copper r plastered with sulphides.
He now has twenty-five showings on
the property, and, as he puts it.
could put more than 200 men at
work and have them working in
ore" On the Cherokee group, two
miles from the Royal Blue, he has
values of 80 per cent in copper and
SIS in gold.

BANKER SMITH MUCH PLEASED

Gently to the property of the Orizabo
Mining Company, near Cloverdale,
in which he is largely interested, and
is much pleased with the progress
that is being made there.
The property is already a shipper,
having sent out last week thirty tons
which will go $3.50 to the ton. Some
of the ore that went out in the last
lot went as high as 1927, and there
was considerable of that quality in
the wagon.
Interested with Mr.. Smith in the
Orizaba company are Moore, Eugene
Howell, G. d. Porter. The ore is
hauled to the train to Nina, a dis
lance of thirty-five miles.

Kicking the ashes from his Havana.
This looks like a splendid proposition
in profits, but the splendor in profits
is simply comparative after all. The
Palace Hotel cleared $48O,000 the
year before the fire. 1t looks big
and sounds better. Nigh half a mil
lion profit. Alluring, isn't 1t? But
remember, the company had a nice
pile of capital invested in their great
caravansary. Then the chances one
takes in hotel management are enor-
nous If things go wrong, you lose
money faster than in carrying a
galaxy of high-salaried sopranos and
tenors in a ragged opera season.
Then come sleepless nights and cold
sweats lest your capital is on the
financial quicksands. Take Senator
Nixon, sitting over there. He's in
many a good thing up in Nevada. but
he has to do a deal of scheming and
maneuvering to keep the percentage
of profit climbing. So does Billy
Booth of Tonopah, sitting near him.
