Peruna frees the stomach of ca

In other words, Peruna goes to the
bottom of the whole difficulty, when
the disagreeable symptoms disappear.

CONFEDERATE REUNION
Author Unknown.

Get my knapsack ready, Mary,
And my uniform of gray,
Get my battered helmet, Mary,
For I'll need them all to-day.
Get my canteen and my leggins,
Reach me down that rusty gun,
For I'm going out parading
With the boys of sixty-one.
Never mind that blood stain. Mary,
Never mind that ragged hole
1t was left there by a bullet
That was seeking for my soul.
Brush away those cobwebs Mary,
Get the bonnie flag of blue,
For I'm going out parading
With the boys of siXty-two
Those old clothes don't fit me. Mary.
AS they did when l was young;
Don't you recollect how neatly
To my manly form they chung?
Never mind that sleeve that's empty,
Let 1t dangle loose and free,
For I'm going out parading
With the boys of siXty-three.
Pull my sword belt tighter Mary,
Fix the strap beneath my chin;
I've grown old and threadbare, Mary,
Like this uniform. and thin.
But l reckon I'll pass muster
AS I did in days of yore.
For I'm going out parading
With the boys of siXty-four.
Now I'm ready, Mary, kiss me;
Kiss your old sweetheart good-by;
Brush away those hayward teardrops-
Lord! 1 did not think you'd cry.
I'm not going out to battle,
Cheer up, Mary, sakes alive!
I'm just going out parading
With the boys of sixtyfive.

The Conquered Banner
By Abram Joseph Ryan.

Furl that Banner, for its weary,
Round it's staff it's dropping dreary;
Furl tit is best;
For there's not a man to wave 1T,
And there's not a sword to save it
And there's not one left to lave it
In the blood which heroes gave it;
Furl it, hide it-let it rest.
Take the Banner down! it's tattered;
Broken is it's staff and shattered.
And the valiant hosts are scattered
Over whom it floated high
Oh It's hard for us to fold it,
Hard to think there's none to hold it,
Hard that those who once unrolled 1t
Now must furl it with sight
Furl that Banner-furl it sadly;
Once ten thousands hailed it gla dly.
And ten thousands wildly, mady.
SWore 1t should forever wave
Swore that foeman's sword could lever
Hearts like theirs entwined dissev r,
And that flag should float forever
Ger their freedom, their gray
Furl that Banner. True, it's CORY,
Yet it's wreathed around with glory,
And twill live in song and story
Though it's folds are in the dust.
For it's fame on brightest pages,
Penned by poets and by sages,
Shall go sounding down the ages
Fur it's folds though now we must!
Furl that Banner softly, slowly;
Treat it gently-it is holy,
For it droops above the Dead
Touch it not-unfold it never;
Let it droop there, furled forever
For its peoples hopes are fled.
New Orleans, La, 1865.

IS SIGHTED But LOST AGAIN
Posse Stood Guard All Night Near
kinefisher, Where Negro is Now
Supposed to Be Hiding.

Guthrie, Okla.-What promises the
most exciting man-hunt Oklahoma has
experienced in years is in progress in
Kingfsher county and the western
part of this Logan) county, where be-
tween 800 and 400 armed men are
securing the country for the negro
ALI Hunter, or Kingsbury, who killed
Sheriff Garrison of Oklahoma county
near Hitchcock Friday afternoon.
Kingsbury compares with the James
tactics in Guiding his pursuers. Posses
have been in the saddle continuous
ly since then, and reports reaching
here about noon Monday indicate that
the negro is anywhere north and east
of the town of Kingfsher and south
of the Cimarron river.
Hitchcock is near the salt fields in
Blaine county on the Rock Island line,
and about 10 miles west of the King
driven east from there about % miles
and many believe he is making for
Guthrie, where, it is claimed, he has
friends. Sheriff Mahoney and posse
left Guthrie Sunday night, remaining
in the fields until late Monday.
Sheriff Tate of Kingfisher received
word from John Sherman, farmer
residing near the county seat, that
Saturday afternoon he encountered a
negro lying in the woods near his

quest of the fugitive, and was heavily
armed. The description given by Sher-
man TALES with that of Hunter, and,
believing that the negro was at bay
in the hay stacks, the sheriff and his
followers stood guard there all night.
When morning came the watch was
abandoned. Sheriff Tate now believes
that the man is in hiding within four
miles of Kingfisher.
At 5 o'clock Monday afternoon
message came from Kingfisher that the
posses were engaged in running hgh!
with the negro four miles northeast
of there, but this was denied Monday
night. Other reports tell the kind OF
weapons the fugitive is carrying, and
that he is wearing DISCUSSES. Bellev-

TORE DOWN THEIR BANNER,

: Courtenay, N. D., Oct 15--It is
reformers will resort to In an effort
to further their own cause A couple
of weeks ago the Bryan-Burke club
hoisted large banner across the main
street of the village bearing the words,
THE Peoples Choice, Bryan and
Kern" using as streamers two large
paintings of the candidates for the
presidency and vice presidency on the
democratic ticket. The same night
the banner disappeared and the demo
Gratis raised terrible howl about the
republicans having torn 1t down, and
denounced the man who did it as
contemplate cur, an undesirable citi-
zen and epithets to that effect. ~
But there is an old saying that crime
will out, and this appears to have
been too good a trick for the demo
Gratis to keep to themselves, and a few
days ago one of their number who
formerly resided at Oshkosh, Wis. dur
ing the time that Lincoln ran for the
presidency, told of an incident that
happened in that town that fully IL
lustrates the position of the democrats
here and their object in having the
banner disappear Oshkosh at that
time was strongly democratic but some
of the more enterprising republicans
hoisted Lincoln banner in the street
and some Of the democrats promptly
tore it down and trampled 1t under
foot. This act aroused the indigna
tion of large number of democrats
and they Immediately turned republi-
cans, and the town has been republi-
can ever since.
The democrats Of Courtenay thought
to repeat some ancient history in
their effort to win votes for their wan
ing cause, and in the darkness Of the
night when they thought no eye OBJ
served them, they tore down their
own banner with the idea that they
would arouse the sympathy of the re-
publicans and they would vote the
was too apparent and 1t has had the
opposite effect here from what II had
in the Wisconsin town at the time of
the Lincoln incident, and many OF
those who intended to vote for Bryan
declare that they will not now do so on
account of this contemplate trick OF

fective he let's loose some canned ora

fierce STAB IN JAW
Drunken Lahorer Leaves Part of His
Knife in His Victims
Jaw Bone.

Rolette Examiner: Arthur Ladou-
ceur was severely stabbed in the jaw
near the chin Tuesday evening by a
man named Arthur Johnson, who has
been in this vicinity working for sew
eral months. The stabbing was done
with a jack knife, the little blade be-.
ing used. The blade went straight
into the jaw-bone and stuck there at
right angles to the face. The man
left the knife in the jaw and made
his escape. Up to this writing he has
not been apprehended. In pulling the
knife out it was found that small
portion of the blade was broken off,
and it is believed that the end is
lodged in Ladouceur's jaw-bone.
1t is said that both the parties in
the affair were under the influence of
liquor and no one seems to know just
how the matter started.
Mr.. Ladouceur called DR.. Claybaugh
and had the wound dressed, but as it
was a deep and narrow cut the vic
tim did not become disfigured enough

Johnson will probably be appre-
hended as he is easily identified by
