It was a proud moment for all assembled
Americans when, on August IS, 1898. Lieu
tenant Thomas NJ. Brumby, Admiral
Dewey's flag Lieutenant, with two signal
boys from the Olympia, hauled down the
Spanish flag which had hOated over the
CITY and raised instead the Stars and
Stripes. But It was a particularly proud
occasion for these signal boys, who did
the actual work Of pulling the ropes which
brought about this sign OF change in the
government Of the islands. One Of the boys,
Samuel Ferguson, then lad Of IS, during
the remainder OF his apprenticeship en-
listment gave much study and attention

The bloodess taking OF Iloio is often
commented upon by naval officers who
know the facts as an instance OF the way
in which the navy gets the short end Of
matters in which 1t is brought into contact
with the army. A small Spanish tug,
which had been captured on May /, was
put under the command of a naval cadet
and did a good deal of cruising among the
islands nearest Luzon. Upon one occa-
sion the cadet took II into the harbor Of
IIoilo, whose inhabitants, already informed
OF what had taken place at Manila, were
expecting the Americans to come and take
possession of their island. With no ap-
pearance of resistance, the town and island
were virtually surrendered TO the cadet
as soon as he landed and the island was
really American territory from that mo
ment But this unceremonious taking OF
the island was not enough, and so the ma
tives a few days later saw a regiment Of
American soldiers landed, who took pos
session with considerable flourish Of trum-
pets and show of force and the colonel
in command Of the regiment was after
ward made a major general of volunteers
for his bravery in the taking Of Iloilo!

clothing are the proper safeguards against
colds. lfthey are maintained through

we're if neglected, and well established
ripe cold is to the germs of diphtheria
what honey is to the bee. The greatest
menace to child life at this season of the
year is the neglected cold,' Whether
it is a child or adult, the cold. slight or
severe, the very best treatment that can
be adopted is to give Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. 1t is safe and sure.
The great popularity and immense sale
of this preparation has been attained by

forest City Items.
by "GRANDMA."-

Forest City IS thinking somewhat d
making her initial bow" into the col:
umns Of our worthy county paper. The
writer Of these lines wondered for many
years. why such a -four shing little burg
as Forest City has never gwen any ac-
count Of the ways and means" Of hel
people; we presume the cause Of her ST.
lence is attributable only to the fact Of
her modesty, not wishing to sound her
own praises, but we think she can still
retain that all important virtue and yet
give to herself the justice and honor due
to such thriving Little vii. The author
of these lines, who will be known to the
public as Grandma as you will see,
does not possess any literary talent what
ever, but she will Try for awhile to give

fertile Medicine River Valley on the D.
K. & G. railroad line. Is twelve miles
west Of the county seat, Medicine Lodge,
and FIVE miles east Of Lake City; is a
very desirable place to live, taking all
things into consideration. We have a
splendid school and we feel safe in the
assertion when we say we have one Of
the best teachers IN Barber county. We

A Good Democratic Daily.

To the people Of this community we
heartily recommend The kansa. City
Daily Post as a newspaper. il has die
strongest and best telegraphic service ef
all the papers IN Kansas City the Hearst
service. The Associated Press reports
have always beenprejudicial to the Dem
ocrahc party and readers of Democratic
papers have not been able to get at the
true inwardness Of things. because the
Associated Press is dominated by Re
pubicans, who IN turn are dominated by
the trusts. The Heast service Is free,
fair and Independent.
In market reports The Post is unsn-
passed by any paper in the West.
Every detail is thorough and complete.
1t IS organizing strong corps Of country
correspondents who are gathering news
for it and sending the same m as specials.
1t is reliably Democratic. vigorous, con-
servahve and straightforward. The
subscription: price Of The Post IS $3.50
a year by mail. Therefore. all who
want Democratic daily that has for its
motto:
Here's freedom to him that would read,
Here's freedom to him that would
write,
will do well to subscribe for The Kan

accident last Thursday night. Instead Of
coal oil lantern, he was using.a gaso-
line pressure light. His bicycle pump
which he used to pump up the pressure,
was out. Of FIX and he went to the engine
and put on the pressure. The re-
suit was that the lamp was blown to
pieces, the gasoline set a6re and Mr..
Picket's hand badly burned and torn by
the explosion. He ran his best to Dr..
VanDewalkers Office and when he got
there the flesh was hanging from his
hand and fingers in fightful manner

it is feared that he will not fully regain
the free use Of it. Mr.. Picketts home is

injured hand.
