Memento for Presleen. piaz.

With a simple but impressive cere-
mony President Diaz was presented
with the military painting portraying
the action of his command in the bat
tie of Puebla against the French
forces in the war of the invasion.
The painting. which was the work OF
the artist Francisco de p. Mendoza, =
professor in the national school of fine
arts and of the military college, was
executed at the request of the gov
ernors of 12 Mexican states, and was
presented as personal gift to the
chief magistrate. The painting repre-
sents Gen. Diaz in action in the glo-
rious battle which won fame for the
Mexican forces, and at the moment
when the forces under the direct
command of Gen. Diaz saved the day

AFRAID OF PARALYSIS

The Medicine That Makes Rich. Rcd
Blood and Performs Wonders as .
Tonic for the Nerves.
Why are nervous people invariably
pale people?
The answer to that question explains
why remedy that acts on the blood
can cure nervous troubles.
It explains why DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People are also for nervous
people.
1t is because of the intimate relation
between the red corpuscles in the blood
and the health of the nerves. The
nervous system receives its nourishment
through the blood. Let the blood be-
come thin, weak and colorless and the
nerves are starved-the victim is started
on the road that leads to nervous wreck.
Nervous people are pale people-but the
pallor comes first. Enrich the blood
and the nerves are stimulated and toned
up to do their part of the work of the
body. DR.. Williams Pink Pills make
red blood and transform nervous, irrit-
able, ailing people into strong, energetic,
forceful men and women.
Mrs. Harriet E. Porter, of 20 Liberty
avenue, South Medford, Mass, says:
81 had never been well from child
hood and few years ago began to
have dizzy spells. At such times could
not walk straight. I was afraid of
paralysis and was on the verge of
nervous prostration. Then neuralgia
set in and affected the side of my face.
The pains in my forehead were excru-
ciating and my heart panied me SO that
my doctor feared neuralgia Of the heart.
1 tried several different kinds of treat
meat but they did me no good.
"One day my son brought me some of
DR.. Williams Pink Pills and I found
that they strengthened my nerves. 1
took several boxes and felt better in
every way. There were no more dizzy
attacks, the neuralgia left me and have
been well woman ever since"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are invaluable
in annmia, rheumatism, after-effects of
the grip and fevers and in sick head
aches, nervousness, neuralgia, and even
partial paralysis and locomotor ataxia.

alley, but his manner was 30 cool that
they did not suspect him to be the
same man they were searching for.
Not until Frank opened the door did
they realize that the well laid plan had
been interrupted by the breaking of
refuse left by builders in the alley.
Frank had been out for lunch when
he saw a suspicious looking fellow
standing in the alley back of the
store. He went in the front entrance
and waited for sounds. The sounds
came soon enough. The iron shutters
were torn off, the glass was broken
and a hand reached through for a
stick to raise the window.
In the meantime Frank ~telephoned
the police station to approach the
rear of the store by going through the
Golden hotel. The officers came out,
but their approach was heard. Frank
hesitated about shooting the burglar,
for he stated afterward that is the
business of the police.

TO BUILD SEA WALLS

RENO, New, March 28.-Reno has
found it necessary to construct sea
walls to protect the city from the
Truckee river, and it is likely that
within a short time work will begin
on making the walls for a distance of
one mile above the town along the
Truckee river.
During the recent high water a
large portion of the city along the
river was flooded and thousands of
dollars Of damage was done. 1t is to
prevent a repetition Of this that the
action will be taken. The walls will
begin at the Virginia street bridge and
extend up the stream, according to the
present plans.

Moran was soon out of danger. A

such work and was unable to cope

ty jail for safe keeping.

amount Of plumber, which he hid in
the sandhills near Fallon. After hid

"HAPPY HABIT IN GRADUA.

Walking to school in the morn
ing, coming from school in the

ed with the sentences Of that ora
ton, that rings out over the grassy

heads Of the browsing cows-who
cam forget that first essay prepared

lady who has accepted the apples

ate as to allow the budding hero to
assist her with her problems.-Joe
Mitchell Chapplc in National for

And how happy these days are
and how fortunate are those who
have had the pleasure to travel that
way. We are always delighted to
see the life and bouyancy Of youth
and the hope that swclls in the
breast of the young college gradu-
ate. In fact we should retain that
youth even if the years do come up
on us. The time seems short even to
those who Travelled the road that
leads away from this happy state
and why should they feel other than
young. We shall travel this road
but once and why not filfil the jour
mey with the sunshine Of happiness
and thus enter into the spirit of
these commencement occasions with
those who are just passing that mile
post. 1t will make the journey cas-
ier and brighter for them.
Why not carry the happy habit of
graduation all through all the days
that come after graduation day. 1t
would be so easy if we would but
form the habit. We give our best
cheer to all the happy graduates dur
ing these festive commencement
times and wish for them that their
fondest hopes may be realized.

City council at it's meeting on
Wednesday night had up for consid-
GRAFTON the paving Of Caldwell street
from Friend to Pratt, and it is hoped
that the property owners on either
side will be willing to carry out the
agreement, which was virtually en-
tered into some time ago to the ef-
feet that the city would do the work
if the owners Of the property would
pay for the material. It is proposed
to lay this street in vitrified brick
and also to raise and repave the side
walk OIL the west side. This work
should be done and if we can get it
done soon and properly there will be
little doubt that these improvements
will be extended to other streets
when the people see the great advan-
tage.

our public square is very much neg
lected, and is, in fact and in reality
wagon yard. In Anderson the
wagon yard has been provided, but
it is not on the public square and
you do not see a lot Of mules and
wagons and negroes blocking not
only the public square, but the
streets, as you see in Newberry
whenever there is the least crowd in
town. A wagon yard should be pro-
vided for our friends from the coun-
try, but it should not be the public
square. The Advertiser says:
"IIow much longer is our public
square to remain neglected? The la
dies Of Anderson have made its pub
lie square al attractive little park or
plaza. The ladies of Laurens can do

square Of Laurcns is handsomcr to

CIVIC IMPROVEMENTS.

The civic association notices,
which arc printed elsewhere, we're
intended to appear in Tuesdays pa
per, but in some way they got mis-
placed and while it is regretted that
the suggestions were not printed in
the early part of The week, it is not
too late yet to carry out some Of
these things, which the association
suggests.
There are great many things in
the matter Of civic Improvement that
might be done in Newbcrry. and they
ought io be done without suggestions
from anyone. and il all the citizens
would cooperate and unite in an
effort to make the city clean, it
could be done without much effort
on the part Of any one. If you have
eyes and desire to see, all you have
to do is to keep your eyes open and
You will find plenty that ought to be
done. 1t adds great deal to city
to have its streets and its sidewalks
and lis lawns ican and IN :;ood con-
dition.
AS suggested by one of our en-
changes, we do not care to be con-
stantly referring to Anderson, but
the civic league in that city has done
so much in civic improvements that
when the stranger goes into the city,
he involuntarily makes remarks
about the improvements. and when
one leaves there, he leaves with
pleasant impressions Of the neatness
and attractiVeness, not only of the
public square, but Of the city gen
orally, and he is told that it is the
work of the civic association of that
city. The same thing could be done
IN Newbcrry. but the civic associa-
tion cannot do it alone ami without
the encouragement, assistance and
cooperation of our citizens general
~. Why they cannot have this is
a mystery which probably can be
solved only by the mind reader.
The following from the Laurens
Advertiser indicates that some Of the
people of Laurens have been to the
city Of Anderson, and is another evi-
dencc of the value to the city of

THE FARMER, THE NATION s
BACKBONE.


dianapolis on the national transopr-
tation problem naturally Overshad-
ed the one he delivered at Lansing,
Michigan, on the vital relation in
which the American farmer stands
to the nation. 1t is to be doubted,
however, if the latter address is not
more important in its way, than the
former. Certainly it is none the less
remarkable, as revealing the intelli-
gence and conscientiousness with
which Mr. Roosevelt has studied the
great agricultural and industrial
problems of the United States.
The president stresses the fact
that Gin every great crisis Of the
past a peculiar dependence has had
to be placed upon the farming popu-
lation; and this dependence has hith-
erto been Justified. " This pro-
nouncement comes after one in
which he declares the wage-worker,
the man engaged in manual labor
co-cqual with the farmer, as one Of
the pillars upon which the integrity
and hope of the country are build
ed.
Mr.. Roosevelt then proceeds to
show that the highest value of the
a%rlrulluriSt to the nation is in the
danger Of being impaired by the fact
that Farming has come, of recent
years, rather into disreputc as COM
pared to urban occupations and that
if we would correct the conditions,
1t is incumbent upon us to institute
such attractions to rural life as will
turn back the tide from the city to
the farm. lie emphasizes, too, the
increased civic usefulness of the man

acres.
ln this connection, the president
attaches great Importance to move
mcnts The Constitution has cham
pioned, without intermission, for the
last twenty years. He advocates a
systematic propaganda for social
and educational institutions, libra
ries, assembly halls and social or
CARNATIONS of every nature. He
urges the further development of
rural free delivery, rural telephone
lines and other agencies which will
place the ruralite upon a parity with
the dwelcr in the city. No more
happily does the presidents doe
trine harmonizc with the views
which The Constitution has express
ed than when he demonstrates the
pressing need of tie farmer manag-
ing his plantation with the same bus
mess care. Aad upon the same com
mercial principles as those observed
by the merchant il the large cities.
Mr. Roosevelt becomes particular.

duty of the farmers in the matter of

FESTIVAL IN MERIDEN.
Business Men win Give Four Days
Festival.

Festival.
The Meriden Business Mems associa-
ton and the Meriden Board Of Trade
recently began to hold four days
open air festival at the Meriden City
park for the purpose Of raising money
to aid the Meriden hospital, which is
in need of funds owing to its rapid
growth.
1t is proposed to have few booths
and attractions and raise a modest
sum, but what Is known in Meriden as
the "Get-Together- Club which is
composed of every citizen of Meriden,
got busy on a plan at once with the
result that from September to Mer-
iden is to have an event that will rival
the great Meriden centennial celebra-
ton of last year.
Instead Of the usual plan of booths
La scheme was adopted of representa-
ton by nations, and this idea has so
grown that as an instance the Irish
are to reproduce the Lakes of Killar-
ney, the English are to have an old
English tavern. tea garden and bowl
ing green, where real English money
will be used. the Americans are to
erect log cabin, with colonial SOL
diers and DANES and big Indian en-
campment, and the Germans, Scandi-
navians, Italians, French, Russians
and all other nations are working out
| like plans.
For the event. in addition to the
buildings for the nations, four big
buildings are being erected. Two of
these are 100 feet long and two 70 feet
Ilong around central plaza. A stage
and immense platform for entertain
ments and big midway are also to be
constructed.
The plans have so outgrown the
original scheme that great hustling
will be necessary to prepare for the
event Where two or three thousand
was to be raised the committees now
expect to make nearer 100000 Meri-
den manufacturers alone have con-
tributed about $4,000 worth of goods
for the various booths, and as the ma
tons are working through committees
appointed by the many societies Of
each nationality some of the national
tons have from 1900 to 5000 peo-
pie hustling to make theirs the best.
An unusual feature is that the big
affair will not cost much directly. The
lumber for the buildings is all donated,
the Carpenters union is to put over
l125 men on the work and build them
without cost; an elaborate scheme of
illumination has been worked out, all
to be donated By the Me1iden Electric
Light company, the expressmen Of
the city are to do all the carting with
out charge and almost every line of
business or industry has put its Shout
der to the wheel to make the whole
| a great success.
